Basin.
While Tito was Stalin's first
lieutenant in the Balkans he
was urged by the Kremlin to
settle the Trieste controversy
by a coup against the mill
tarily weak Italy, In 1947 the
situation had become so
critical that in some leading
Roman circles. such as the
Vatican. the possibility of the
Yugoslav forces entering
Italy was not discounted.
The Russians have not
changed their tactics except
that they are now counting
Italian instead of Yugoslav
nationalism. Tito is said to
favor taking preventive"
measures in order to avoid a
surprise.
The situation would reach
the height of irony if Italy
and Yugoslavia were to jump
at each others throats as a
result of Americas successful
efforts to provide them with
modern military forces.

So strong has been public
and official revulSion to kid
naping that it has become
one of the least profitable ways
to make a living. Stern law
enforcement has made kid
naping almost a thing of the
past.
Almost but not quite: Last

hind a cottage in st. Joseph,
Mo-, the body of a 6-year-old
boy was found. This was the
tragic climax Of the latest and

naping.
The boy was Bobby Green
lease, son of a Kansas City
millionaire. His abductors had
taken him from school on a
pretext and had shot him to
death apparently even before
making their 100000 ransom
demand.
Intermediates paid off with
10000 bills, weighing IS
pounds, stuffed into duffel
bag and heaved over a culvert.
A Big Spender
Shortly after the payoff, a
free-Spending man was re-
ported to police by a st. Louis
taxi driver. When the man
was seized, he turned out to be
Carl Austin Hall, a 34-year-
old waStrel and ex-convict. In
his luggage police found al
most 100000. Hall admitted
kidnapping Bobby, and at first
said he had killed the boy, but
later denied this, naming as
the murderer a sexual degen-
crate named Thomas John
Marsh. Marsh Immediately
became the object of a ma
tional search.
Also implicated by Hall was

Brown Heady, in whose back

away from school, but denied
even knowing he was dead.

A GOVERNOR RESIGNED,
~ q Chief Justice took of
fee, and in the Nations Sec
ond largest State there began
a political tug-of-war between
two ambitious young men.
This contest probably will not
end until the day, four or
eight or IL years hence. when
q Republican National Com
vention decides whether one or
the other-or neither-is to
be the party's candidate for
President.
Earl Warren, SO, son Of
Scandinavian immigrants who
rose to become three-time
Governor Of California, re-
signed his post last Sunday
and was sworn in the follow
ing day as the 14th Chief JUS
tice of the United States. In

chamber the only remaining
American ceremony which is
conducted without benefit of
newsreels, television and ra-
dio took place. The audience
included President and Mrs.
Eisenhower. members Of the
cabinet and the judiciary, and
other distinguished guests. It
also included Vice President
Nixon. 40. and Senate Ma

heirs to the loosely knit Re-
publican organization in CAL
ifornia.
Both had met the new Chief
Justice when he landed at Ma
tional Airport the night before.
Both had been quick to re-
iterate their frequent public
assurances that all is well be-
tween them. Yet Earl Warren
had scarcely left Sacramento
before Dick Nixon was master
minding a move to win the
loyalty of the old-line party
regulars supporting the States
conservative new Governor,
former 1t. Gov. Goodwin
Knight. Knowland is one of
Knights chief political foes.
His New Concern
With the contests between
Nixon and Knowland, Earl
Warren no longer had a direct
concern. When he succeeded
the late Chief Justice Vinson,
he said with some relief that
he was really glad to be out
Of politics. Out of politics he
might be in partisan sense,
but squarely in the center of
the social and economic ten
sionS of midcentury America
he certainly was.
Some of these tensions will
face him soon. This was ap-

Bullock

THE AMERICAN success
story is compounded of equal
parts of diligence, thrift, per-.
severance and a good mouth
piece. At least. it seemed that
way last week when Albert l.,
Bullock won a court battle
that gave him a $500 annual
pension for life The is 56).
Diligence took Bullock, in 81
years. from the rank of private
to that of inspector in the
Metropolitan police. Thrift
enabled him to deposit more
than $4,000 in excess of his
earnings in a three-year PEI
riod. Perseverance kept him
fighting after District officials
frowned on his unwillingness to-
explain the extra SIS, 1000. And
the mouthpiece - the cele-'
brated Charlie Ford-enabled-
him to beat the District gov+
ernment in court.
Bullock's troubles began in
October, 1850. when an indict--
ment in connection with q
gambling case caused his sus-.
pension from the force. He
was reinstated a year later.
when he won a directed YER
dict of acquittal in court.
Then. in February. 1852, he,
applied for retirement. Three
months later a Senate COM,
mittee asked him about his A..
nancial affairs and learned
that he could not recall q
number of details. ....~

Then the District fiscal au-
thorities charged that Bullock
had been lax about his District

and the police were embroiled
in a misunderstanding about

At length, the Police Depart
ment expressed dissatisfaction
over his answers and asked the
Commissioners to fire him for
misconduct. They complied
last month, and ordered his
pension forfeited.
The case went to court.

no course but to pay Bullock

asked for it. .,...

said the retirement law does
not specify misconduct as a,
ground for forfeiture of pen
sion. The only three pertinent
questions, the judge said, are:,
Is he SIS or over? Has he.
been on the force 25 years?,
Was he on the force when he
applied for retirement? r
There could be no doubt. in
Bullock's case, that the an
swer to each question was yes.

The recent elections in the
German Federal Republic rep
resented a reputation by the
people Of West Germany of ex-
tremism. both left and right.
At the same time, the vote was
an Endorsement Of closer ties
with the rest of the free world.
Much credit for this trend
goes to Chancellor Konrad
Adenauer and to the Ameri-
can, British and French occu-
patton powers. But even Ade-
nauer could not have scored
his victory, without support
from other far-sighted and
internationally minded Ger
mans. One such leader Of
German opinion, DR.. Rudolf
Binapfi is now visiting the
United States under the aus
pices Of the State Depart
ment's exchange Of persons
program.
DR.. Binapfi is the founder
and director Of the Europa
BildungSwerE, which may be
loosely translated as Euro
pear1 Cultural Movement" I'm
like so many German political
movements, this one is dedi-
Gated to showing the German
people not only the differences
but also the Similarities be-
tween them and other Euro
peanS. The similaritieS, DR..
Binapfl's group feels, should
tend to bring the European
countries together. The diff
ferences can be overcome by
understanding.
World War II Product
DR.. Binapfi, like the move
ment he heads, is a product of
World War II. He was lieu
tenant colonel in the German
Army and saw at first hand the
effects Of German occupation
in Greece. France, Belgium,
YugoSlavia and Russia. He be-
came q prisoner Of war Of
the Americans shortly before
the war ended.
Because DR.. Binaph had had
no close association with the
Nazi Party he was given a
clean political bill of health
after a few weeks in a POW
camp. His legal and admin

began to trickle in.
The next step was to I'LL the
requests. DR.. Binaph carl-,
Hvassed Europe for speakers.
Foreigners who only a few
years earlier had been suffer-
ing under the yoke Of the
hated NaziS were assured
that they would enjoy COM
plete freedom to say what they
wanted. In fact, DR.. Binapfl
told his speakers, it would be
healthy for Germans to know
what others thought of them.
BY 1948. the program was un-
der way. with speakers fr om

program had mushroomed to
include over 1000 speakers.
BY the end Of this year, it is
expected. double that number
Of foreigners will address au-
diences ranging from so to
more than 5000 persons.
Which groups has Europa

old heretofore have been hot

young voters support of Ade-
nauer last month";
Two-Woy Street
However, cooperation is
two-way street as far as Ger
mans are concerned. Like
other Germans, DR.. Binaph
believes that if France refuses
to sanction German forces
within EDO, Germany will re-
arm Independently.
DR.. Binaph feels that French
fears that Germany will DOM
mate a European army are
without foundation. He re-
calls that at the time the
Schumann plan was being
discussed objections were
raised by the French that
Germany would dominate the
coal and steel community. This
is Frances argument now

According to Columnist Milton
Friedman writing in capitol
Spotlight, many purposes were
served by the decision of the dia-
lecticians now favored at the
Kremlin to use anti-Semitism as
a political device. It's use may
have been aimed at the creation
of scapegoats for the failure of
Communism in CZechoSlovakia;
to frighten Cominform Jews out
of any desire to escape to Israel;
to win sympathy from the Arab
countries; to win sympathy from
Nazi elements in West Germany,
and as a step toward the forcible
Russianization of the satellite
countries.
