The President and the Sec
retary of State have made a
valiant effort to introduce
dignity and decency into the
discussion of foreign policy.
They have publicly disavowed
Senator Joseph Mccarthy as
a spokesman in this delicate
and dangerous field. The Sec
retary took the Senator head-on
and the President declared
himself in full accord with all
the Secretary had to say. But
At the same time the Presi-

rather ignominious retreat in
his battle with Mccarthy on
the home front.
In a press conference No

asked to comment on the

U. S. Agriculture Experts
Hit Land Reform Report
By the Associoted Press

ROME, Dec. 3.-The United
States delegation today sharply
criticized FAC Director General
Norris E. Dodd's report on land
reform as disappointing and
pessimistic.
Mr.. Dodd, former United
States Undersecretary Of Agri-
culture, said in his report there
is no easy way to land reform,
no perfect system for applying
it everywhere, and he added:
There is no point in destroy
ing an efficient estate to create
a large agricultural slum."
The statement of the Ameri-
can delegation, headed by AS
sistant Secretary of Agriculture
John H. Davis, said:
a.. We must express a sense
of disappointment and concern
at the general tenor Of the dis
cussion and the conclusions
stated The tone is pessimistic
as to the possibility Of improve
ment in this field.
I'VE believe that while the
problem is difficult the OBJ
jective is the improvement of
the living standards of rural

years engaged in the bitter feud
between the Navy and Air Force
over the roles of Navy carrier
aviation versus long-range air

forces" He said that extensively,

primary requisite. Then he
added:
"Yet now, and for an inde-

air forces must be complemented

David Lowrence-

For several days now the
headlines have been implying
that President Eisenhower and
Senator Mccarthy of Wiscon-
sin have broken" 1t just
isn't true. For if a difference
of opinion on whether Com
munists in Government is
going to be an issue in the
coming political campaigns
means a break" then Gen.
Eisenhower must be considered
as having broken" with more
Republicans than the Sem
ator from Wisconsin. Even
differences on foreign policy
have heretofore not caused
the President to "break" with
members of his party. For
Senator Knowland, the Re-
publican leader, doesn't always
see eye to eye with the State
Department.
Since Mr.. Eisenhower made
his first comment to his press
conference last week that he
hoped the issue of Commu-
nists in Government would be
a memory by the time of the
1854 campaign, five Repub-
lican Senators have differed
with the President by express
ing the belief that it really
would be an issue. They are:
l. Senator Saltonstall of
Massachusetts,, chairman Of
the Armed Services Committee.
2. Senator Eugene Millikin
of Colorado, chairman of the
Finance Committee and head
of the Republican conference
of the Senate.
3. Senator William E. Jen-
ner of Indiana, chairman Of
the Committee on Rules and
Administration and also chair
man of the subcommittee on
Internal Security.
4. Senator Ives of New York,
member of the Banking and
Labor Committees.
S. Senator Welker of Idaho,
member of the Agriculture
Committee.
When Gen. Eisenhower re.
iterated at his press confer
ence yesterday that he ex-
pected Communists in Govern
ment not to be an issue in the
1854 congressional campaigns,
he issued a prepared statement
on the subject.

President Eisenhower backed
fully. as was expected, his Sec
retary of States slap at Sen
ator McCarthy's incidental
criticism of the administra-
tion's handling of foreign af-
fairs.
In taking what is generally
regarded as a mild punch at
the Wisconsin Senator, Secre-
tary Dulles also took an op-
portunity to re-emphasize. on
the eve of the Bermuda con-
ference, Americas great need
for strong, loyal and faithful
allies.
The Secretary of State Sc
lected for this purpose that
portion of Senator McCarthy's
broadcast of. November "a in
which, after analyzing the
failure" of the Republicans
to liquidate the "fouleSt bank
ruptcy of the Democratic ad-
ministration," that of foreign
affairs, he stated: 1--WE Re-
publicans are not responsible
for it. But we are responsible
for the proper administration
as of tonight" And then he
asked rhetorically: "Are we 60
ing to continue to send per-
fumed letters following the
style Of the Truman-Acheson
regime?"
Although the Senator did
not say that we now did this,
the Secretary took it for
granted that the words "per-
fumed notes" were not merely
a criticism Of the past but an
implied criticism of our pres
ent attitude: that the criticism
was directed at the present
administration, which instead
of talking kindly to our allies
should use threats and intimi-
dationS to compel them to do
our bidding. It is difficult to
find any such implied urgings
in the Mccarthy broadcast.
The Secretary reminded us
of the words of his grand
father, himself a Secretary Of
State in his time, who had
said that American foreign
policies had been marked from
the beginning by "a spirit of
justice, forbearance and mag
nanimity." We are unqueStion-
ably trying to be now just as
in the past. We have shown
forbearance in the last few
years. Sometimes, when faced
with a blunt recalcitrance on
the part of some of our allies,
we spoke patiently to them. In
stead of limiting that if they did
not like our approach to world
affairs they could go their own
way, we increased our COM
mitments toward them beyond
our original promises. The
American aid for the Indo-
China war is a particularly
good example.
AS for magnanimity, the
dozens Of billions given our
allies and former enemies
speak for themselves.
AS a matter of fact. Mr..
Dulles himself is not exactly a
timid soul in handling major
international matters affect
ing the interests of this coun-
try. For instance, he spoke
with polite harshness to Her.

partmental hearings. William
Remington, recently convicted
of perjury in denying that he
was a Communist, was cleared
by departmental boards. AL
ger Hiss was never caught till
he testified before a congress
sional committee. There are
many instances where the stat
ute of limitations has run and
only by congressional inquiry
can facts be brought to light
that show contacts between
Government personnel already
cleared" and persons outside
the Government whose con-
nections are dubious.
Gen. Eisenhower cannot pos
sibly control or censor what is
said in a congressional cam
paign either by the members
of his own party or the oppos-
ing party. If he thinks he can
get a commitment from the
Democrats to avoid attacking
"McCarthyism" in the 1854
campaign, then maybe not
much will be said about the
Communists in Government
issue. But Gen. Eisenhower
is not in control of what the
Democrats may say on this,
and many of them think INC
Carthyism" will be an issue.
So it seems rather pointless
for Gen. Eisenhower to lend
himself to any schemes to dis
cipline members of his party
for openly expressing their
own ideas as to the 1854 cam
paign.
Nothing can hurt a Presi-
dent more quickly than the
impression that he wants to
muzzle the members of his
own party. Mr.. Roosevelt and
Mr.. Truman tried "purges" to
their sorrow. Somebody ought
really to give Gen. Eisenhower
a few pointers on how to avoid
friction in his own party be-
cause the people who are press
ing him to start a row inside
his party aren't really Repub-
licans of influence but left
wingers, and their concepts
are largely Of the New Deal
Fair Deal variety. The kind of
voters who want a Mccarthy
Eisenhower fight aren't going
to vote Republican next time
anyhow. They are mostly
Stevenson Truman followers.
The Democrats hereabouts are
already rejoicing over the
prospects of a wreckage of the
Republican Party in Congress

standpoint of what benefits
the DemocratS-to persuade
Gen. Eisenhower that he must
demonstrate dramatically to
the country that he is anti
Mccarthy. The people who
have advised the President
along this line seem to have
forgotten that Mccarthy as
an individual Senator can
be readily attacked. but this
leaves in it's wake a consider
able disaffection among mil
lions of Republicans who be-
lieve Mccarthy has been doing
a good job in awakening the
Congress and the executive
branch Of the Government to
the menace Of Communist in
filtration in the Government.
What seems difficult to un-
derstand is Gen. EiSenhower's
belief that all that's necessary
to eradicate the issue of Com
E1unists in Government from
politics is to eliminate them
from the Government under
his own administration. That's
a rather naive approach, and
undoubtedly it is also the
innocent approach of some of
his inexperienced advisers.
The truth is that, if Com
muniStS are driven out of the
Government now, what assur-
ance is there that, if a
Democratic administration re-
turns to power in 1856, the
Communist Sympathizers will
not get back again into po-
sitions of influence? Must
the party out of power not
be held responsible for it's
sins, especially when the re-
cent reaction of its leaders
to the Harry Dexter White
case shows they have learned
nothing by it? The Importance
Of the 1854 congressional elec-
tions is that, if the Demo-
Gratis get back into control of
both houses and some of their
so-called liberals" become
chairmen of congressional
committees, the work that has
to be done to check executive
agencies constantly will be re-
garded as finished because of
the Eisenhower pronounce
ment, and inquiries will be
abandoned.
Yet the record shows that
the executive agencies cannot
do their own house cleaning
because often the facts are

foreign critics went so far as
to accuse him of having given

was, however, in the very early
days of the Republican ad-

The Presidents decision puts
him in the main stream of
American history. The sue
ceSsful Presidents Of this de-
mocracy have always focused
attention upon themselves by
reason of what they and their
administration were accom-
plishing. 1t may be the hard
way. but it is sure.
Many Eisenhower support
ers will be heartened by his
grasp of this fact as well as
by his determined avoidance
of what they regard as Hitler
ian bypaths to power.
The President proved that
his every word was uttered
with malice aforethought by
reading his remarks from a
prepared statement and au-
thorizing direct quotation,
which is only rarely per-
mitted. 1t had heavy impact
upon a hushed press confer

firmly that fear of Commu-
niSts actively undermining our
Government will not be an
issue in the 1854 elections.

this connection that Attorney

the vital advantages America is
deriving from her spirit Of

the Importance of the allied

The Secretary Of State,
taking a relatively mild pas
sage of the Mccarthy speech
of November "a as a theme
which he knew would carry
with the rank and file Of the
American people, has skilfully
brought once more before the
American people the fact that
we need a complete harmony
