Eisenhower again refused the
RosenbergS' appeal for clemency.
Plans New Campaigns.
The closing declaration of the
Communist dominated council

worldwide campaign for nego-

Schatz made his preparations.

Italian Cabinet Strengthened
Peo Seen Toing Advantage Of Nationalist Sentiment
Over Trieste to Bolster His Regime Aoonst Reds
Constantine Brown

ROME, Italy (By Air Mail).
The cabinet of Prime Min
lister Pella, which was con-
sidered only as a stop-gap
administration, is taking ad-
vantage of the whipped-up
nationalist sentiment in Italy
and expects to remain in
power for some time. From
this standpoint the Trieste
crisis has been beneficial to
the Italians.
After the defeat of Alcide de
Gasperi, the politically un-
known Pella was placed in
charge of a caretaker cabinet
whose primary task was to
get the budget through the
two houses Of Parliament.
After this was done, the new
Premier was to be overthrown
by the combination of the
splinter parties in the lower
house and many observers
feared that Italy would go the
way of France-a new cabinet
every few months.
Pella played his interna-
tional cards well. He told the
emotional Italian people that
he would hold the American
and British governments to
their pledges of october 8 and
would not bulge even if Tito
threatened Italy with war.
The patriotic outbursts
throughout the main cities of
Italy were by and large spon-
taneous. But there were a few
cases, particularly in Rome,
where they were "helped" a
little. This was done not so
much for the benefit of the
allies or the Yugoslavs but for
home consumption.
Pietro Nenni, the leader of
the near Communist" Social
lists, decided that his followers
in Parliament had better alb
stain rather than vote against
the Pella government in order
to avoid a ministerial crisis at
an unfavorable moment. Pal
micro Togliatti's Communists,
the largest single party in the
Assembly, show little inclina-
ton to overthrow the cabinet
until the shape of the conflict

over Trieste takes a more def
mite form.
Italy is in the midst of an
emotional nationalist binge
and the Communists are too
shrewd operators to start their
destructive movements openly
under such conditions. Their
present reserve will help them
later, regardless of how the
Trieste affair ends. This policy
is the result of Moscow's in
structions. And for the time
being nobody here knows what
has been decided in the Krem-
lin.
Despite the superficial advan-
tage of Signor Pella, there is
no doubt that the Communist
Party is still. the controlling
political element in this coun-
try.
The Italian Communists
have gone underground to
some extent. There are only
some 250,000 card-carrying
members at the present time.
But an important segment of
the labor unions is dominated
by them.
Whenever the non-Commu-
mist unions decide to go on
strike in order to improve the
low standard of living of the
workers land this is low in
decd the Communists join
them. But there have been
cases when Togliatti's men left
their fellow workers holding
the bag. Such an instance oc-
CURED soon after october 8
when a strike was called in the
Roman press. All newspapers
suspended publication except
the three Communist papers.
For a few days the Romans
were able to read the details
of the Trieste affair only
through Communist eyes.
This situation may have in

hundreds of youths who
shouted "To the gallows with
Tito!" and Trieste or DEATH"

main streets Of Rome and be-

Disillusion of familiar kind
Is becoming manifest in a Sec
ton of our populace. This is
the army of volunteer Eisen-
hover workers who, just a year
ago now, were ecstatically put
ting the finishing touches on
the mighty political crusade"
which they saw come to its tri-
umphant climax a few days
later in Gen. Dwight D. Eisen-
hower's election.
Like their counterpartS in
previous campaigns of recent
years when the Republican
Party picked an eminent polit-
ical outsider" as its candi-
date, these Eisenhower devotees
expected some sort of miracle
afterward. They saw them
selves moving into command
ing roles in what they expected,
with the generals help, to be
made into a new sort of Repub-
lican Party, something vague
and indefinable but beautiful,
something in the image they
conjured up in the magic name
Eisenhower" as they conned it
over and over during the cam
paign like an incarnation.
1t was, of course, an impos-
sible dream-and not new
one.
We saw it before, long ago
now. among the disciples Of
Herbert Hoover. He repre-
sented glamor and political in
dependence to millions before
his nomination. We saw it also,
closer to this time, in the fond
followers of the late Wendell
L. Willkie, lawyer businessman.
who never had even held polit-
ical Office.
Not unusual either is the dis
appearance of the dream of the
Eisenhower crusaders. BY and
large, they now see the party
well under the thumb of the
regular G.. o. P. organization.
The latter has received the bulk
of jobs. while the Eisenhower
corps of year ago has not
been recognized as expected
and has had to abandon in
some sectors it's aim of building
up an Eisenhower organization
in the grass roots to protect the
Presidents interests.
Similarly, the ardent Hoover
crusaders of that other era
saw the old, regular organiza-
ton move in and subsequently
take over the party again when
Mr.. Hoover was defeated after
his term in the White House.

example is: Do not annoy
the customers just before an
election. The Eisenhower State
Department annoyed a lot of
the New York customers with
a decision that could have
been postponed or worked out
exactly as it was later.
Fl The President cannot afford
blanket Endorsements either,
and it is known that he re-
sisted originally the New Jer-
sey one. If he had more con-
f1dence in his own political
judgment - and such conf
dence would come from prac-
tice-he might still have re-
sisted it.
The Republicans have many
political problems arising out
of the changeover last Janu-
ary. The party managers ad-
NIT they have had difficulty
interesting the President and
his businessman cabinet in
them. One specialist at the
grass roots level says: II don't
care who gets those chauffeur
driven limousines in Washing
ton. but I wish the men who
get 'em would help me out at
the State and local level"

sizes. They helped the public
in this manner to read through
different glasses the news pub
lished by the Communists dur
ing those days of the strike.
But nobody here has any
illusions as to what the Com
munists would do If the Krem-
lin ordered the stoppage of a
general mobilization of the
Italian forces. Despite the
thoroughness of the "Celere"
Ga mobile police force COM
posed of selected men armed
with carbineS, pistols, black
jacks and daggers) and the
reliability of the "Carabinieri,"
the elite military police Of
Italy, the entire communica-
tionS and transportation sys-
TENS in Italy and all work in
the heavy industries would be
instantly paralyzed.
The COON squads headed by
Togliatti's lieutenant, Luigi
Longo, may be less effective
today than they were in 1947
when it looked as if Italy would
topple over to the Commu-
mist side. But the discipline
and retaliation system in the
unions is such that the orders
for an immediate general strike
would be obeyed without mur-
mur.
The consensus of most Ital-
ian and foreign observers is
that for the time being, while
Moscow has apparently not yet
made up its mind which way
to throw it's weight, there Is
no interference with the loud
patriotic outbursts of the
Italian "giovinezza." But in
the event of a showdown in
this portion of Europe, the
Trieste issue can be showed
into the background and loud
denunciations that imperial
istic America intends to make
cannon fodder out of the
Italians will take its place.
Until this happens, if it
ever does, Prime Minister
Pella has obtained a new lease
on his political life and is ex-
pected to continue in Office at
least until the end of this year.

This is politics all right and
it has been done before but it
is not a crusade. 1t is very far
indeed from that conception
of politics as "a high and
noble profession, rightly prac-
ticed" which is the kind
praised by Gen. Dwight D. Eli
senhoWer in 1948.
Politics can only be rightly
practiced, however, when the
White House takes the initia-
tive rather than responding to
pressure. Unless and until the
President makes up his mind
to run his own politics, setting
the limits in advance beyond
which he will not go, he will
repeatedly find himself walk-
ing back down hill as he did
this week.
The President is on the de-
fensive when the pleading pol
iticians come to him, because
he knows he has not been CIV
ing any thought or care to
their problems. Those prob
lens are real and under the

servation Service as very i'm

What then causes the row?
1t was the proposal to abolish
regional Offices and place on
each State conservation Office
the responsibility. now in re-
gional Offices, to assist the
farmer in meeting his conser-
vation problems. The State
Offices are to be strengthened
by the inclusion Of technical
personnel, including a State
conservation engineer. a soil
scientist and soil conserva-
zionist. In addition, other
specialists will be brought in,
and no change in the existing
technical personnel is to be
made, the Secretary says, be-
cause most of them will be
transferred to the States and
to Washington.
But there will be lesser per-
sonnet who will be released.
The same thing is happening
throughout the Government.
The administration feels it
has a mandate from the people
to do away with jobs that can
be eliminated and money saved.
But every time there is a cut
down, the persons affected or
their anonymous spokesmen
start a protest. The people
generally want their taxes re-
duced. Uncle Sam doesn't owe
anybody a lifetime job in a
bureau of the Government.
And if the present administra-
tion can get the necessary
work done by fewer jobholders,
the American people will be
happy-and the protests will
be drowned out by the ap-
plause.
