The controversy over vivi-
section has been raging for
more than q century, but
time hasn't dimmed the
emotion which tinges the
arguments. This emotion
comes from staid men Of sci-
ence. as well as from those
who oppose the use OF dogs in
the laboratory.
The arguments have arisen
again as research men seek
unwanted dogs from the Dis
trict pound for use as labora-
tory animals. The medical
men spoke feelingly of dogs
doomed to die in the crowded
gas chamber" at the city
pound. They stressed at q
recent hearing that .tmany in
this hall today would not be
alive" if it had not been for
animal experiments.

position, and the next session

French are dissatisfied with
everything and everybody, in
cluding themselves. The
marked popular antagonism to
America. the one nation which
did not fail them in the First
and Second World Wars, is one
OF the symptoms of this frus-
tration.
The French people have lost
their once much vaunted self
assurance, and as a result
they do not any longer trust
even their most tried friends.
They fear that the day will
come again when they will be
overpowered by Germany.
This fear is further accentu-
ated by the fact that the
population of this rich coun-
try is decreasing.
A government report pub

that the number of births in
the first nine months of 1853
was smaller by $4,000 than

deaths in 1853 is estimated to
exceed the birth rate by some
250,000.

worried. Across the Rhine
there is a marked excess Of
births over deaths. Frances
leaders ask themselves: Is

French Fear Of Strong Germany
Current FeeIn9 OF Illustration in Frenchmen Blamed
For Loss OF Political Stobity and 'MoroI Fiber
Constantine Brown

PARIS, France CBy Air Mai)
There is much less news and
much more politics in the
French newspapers than in
our own. This is easily under
Standable. since most of the
newspapers here are subsidized
or inspired by political par
ties, or individual political
groups and politicians.
But seldom has there been
such a unanimlty of opinion
in the press as exists today
against ratification of the Eu-
ropean Defense Community,
treaty which provides for in
cluSion Of a German force of
IL divisions in a European
army.
The fact that the idea was
sired by a former French Pre-
mier, Antoine Pinay, while in
ONCE and supported not only
by former Foreign Minister
Robert Schuman but also by
the present Secretary of De-
tense, Rene Pleven, seems to
have been altogether forgot
ten.
Judging by the editorials as
well as the news columns of
the French press, it would ap-
pear that the EDO is one of
the Machiavelian machina-
tions of the American Gov
ernment. Our reason, accord
ing to the French, is to rearm
Frances arch enemy Ger
many for the sole purpose of
enabling Washington to with
draw our forces from Europe.
This view is shared by the
politicoS in Parliament as well
as by number of members of
Premier Joseph Laniel's cab
met. 1t is occasionally sup
ported by some American
commentators who join in the
French chorus: eff America
is so vitality interested in the
well-being of Europe and in
slStS on ramming the EDO
down the French throats, why
doesn't she join the six-nation
European armies and let her
forces become an integral part
of that force?"
The French are worried
over the amazing recovery of
Germany. But instead of see
ing in this the determined ef-
forts of so million Germans
who live in the Western Fed
eral Republic, they regard this
recovery as another manifes-
tation Of Germany's intention
to dominate Europe, econom-
1cally at first, then politically
and militarily.

E. Brown said the boy admitted

political clans. But they are
not divided in their objective
OF finding ways and means to
prevent their neighbor across
the Rhine from becoming a
strong power once more. It is
for this reason that SO many
political leaders in this coun-
try refuse to accept the con-
cept that the German Federal
Republic should be regarded
as member of the Western
European Community.
The victory of Chancellor
Konrad Adenauer over the
German extremist parties
(there is not a single Com
munlSt or neo-NaZi in the
BundeStag today is regarded
here as bad omen. The 78-
year-old Chancellor is accused
OF being a hypocrite. He
claims to be European-minded,
1t is said by leading French
politicians, while in fact he
strives to create united
Europe under the domination
OF Germany. The expression
"once a German always a
German" is heard here more
frequently than that old saw
we hear so often at home.
"once a Communist always a
Communist"
The feeling of insecurity in
this country is natural after
the series of defeats the
French have suffered at the
hands of the Germans Since'the
first Franco German War in
1870. France has recovered
from her painful losses after
each of the three wars she
has fought in the last 80 years.
But while her economic and
financial position readjusted
itself to the new circum-
stances, the moral fiber of it's
nationals seems to have suf-
fered irreparable loss. This is
shown today in her political
life.

Former President Truman
personally isn't on trial in the
court of public opinion on any
charge that he had any sym
pathy for officials with Com
munist connections, but the
carelesSnesS of staff members
in and around the White House
in dealing with Communists
who had infiltrated the Gov
ernment is certainly the issue.
Attorney General Brownell has
rendered a public service in
focusing attention on White
House laxity during the Demo-
cratic administrations.
The question now is what
person or influences unknown
to Mr.. Truman kept him from
getting the proper evaluation
of FBI reports.
For certainly the FBI fur
nished enough data to have
kept Harry Dexter White from
being given a promotion when
he was Assistant Secretary of
the Treasury, and sufficient in
formation, moreover, at least to
start a loyalty check of some
kind on his record. No loyalty
board procedure was applied in
his case.
The fact is that Harry Dex-
ter Whites Office should have
been investigated by his SUI
periors, either by the White
House or by the Secretary of
the Treasury. But it was not
until 1947 that any system of
checking was instituted with
respect to the loyalty of Of
flcials above the usual clerical
positions. The checking was
done on persons entering the
service but not those already in
the Government.
The story starts with an FBI
memorandum dated November
Is, 1945. It was sent to the
President and other high Of
f1clalS a few days later. 1t
told of a confession made by
Elizabeth Bentley, who came to
the New York Office of the
FBI on November 8, 1945, and
related her contacts with the
late Jacob Golos, a Soviet
espionage agent. She described
in detail her work as a Com
munist courier.
Miss Bentley's testimony by
itself would not have caused
so much stir if it had not cor
roborated the memorandum
already obtained by the FBI

ing extraordinary statement
about Whites record was sent
to the White House by order
of j. Edgar Hoover, Director
of the FBI:
This information has been
received from numerous con-
fidential sources whose relia-
bility has been established
either by inquiry or long
established observation and
evaluation. In no instance is
any transaction or event re-
lated where the reliability of
the source of information is
questionable"
A copy went simultaneously
to Tom Clark, then U. S. At
torney General and now an AS
sociate Justice of the Supreme
Court.
1t would seem incredible
that either Mr.. Truman or
Mr.. Clark would ignore so
pointed a warning from the
FBI. The real question is who
interceded or who pooh
poohed the FBI report or who
talked with Harry Dexter
White and accepted his de-
malls as authoritative? These
are the true points on which
future inquiry will turn as the
Senate Internal Security SUBJ
committee begins questioning
members of the governmental
staff who may have a recol-
lection as to why the FBI re-
port was not only disregarded
but why Mr.. Truman on April
30, 1916. signed such a lauda-
tory letter to Mr.. White when
he left one post in the Gov
ernment to take up another.
Undoubtedly such a letter
was prepared for Mr.. Tru-
mans signature. Did the staff
member who wrote this know
what the FBI report had said?
These are only a few of the
unanswered questions which
will come up as the inquiry
is pursued, as it will be. For,
despite the cries of "red her
ring" being raised again, as
they were in 1948, the public
is interested in ferreting out
the truth about how the White
House staff operated when a
sensational FBI report con-
fronted the staff of the Chief
Executive challenging the 10y
atty of a high official of the
Government.

In addition to the band
wagons there were motion-pic-
ture trucks showing a short
newsreel of the candidate. And
there were parades, day and

and the candidate and his
family riding in an open car.
Then there was a 40-foot bar

Miss Bentley referred specif-
ically to Harry Dexter White

espionage group, and included
in it Lauchlin Currie, admin

President Roosevelt.
The FBI reported also that,
