leasing rights in the States be-
cause they feel-and expert
ence backs them up-that
they can get more favored
treatment there than in the
Federal Government.
A slim hope that President
Eisenhower might reverse his
campaign position and stand
for Federal control went
glimmering when he included
the offshore bill in the list Of
II items on the legislative pro-
gram to which he agreed in
his weekly conference with
Republican leaders of Con-
gress. He bowed to his party
leaders in a gesture that will
be very encouraging to all
sorts Of special interests which
are poised to scuttle the nat
ural resources conservation
program.
The slim hope that he might
challenge the States Fighters
and big oil interests got some
encouragement by his strong
pledge in his message to Con-
gresS for the Theodore Roose-
welt conservation program and
by his omission of any COM
mitment on the offshore oil
issue. It was that circum-
stantial evidence, fragile to
be sure. that bolstered con-
servationiStS to believe that he
might stand up and resist as
his predecessor, President Tru-
man, had done In twice Veto
ing a State control measure.
He had q way out, too, which
President Truman had left
him as q legacy and which it
was thought he might possibly
take because Of his own intri-
cate knowledge Of our national
security needs and their rela-
tion to oil. This was the execu-
tive order which the ex-Pres-
ident had issued a few days
before he retired, constitute
ing the offshore oil lands a
naval reserve. That would,
Of course, be vitiated by an
act Of Congress giving the
States Jurisdiction.
President Eisenhower's GO
ahead signal for the State con-
troll bill found its sponsors in
Congress all set for speedy ac-
ton and thus forecasting that
1t will be the first fruits of the
Republican Party's return to
power. The Government re-
organization bill already
passed was merely the extern
sion Of existing law. Consid-
cradle time will be required
for other measures included
on the Eisenhower legislative
program, among them ex-
panSion Of the social security
system, revision Of the Taft
Hartley law, emergency aid
for schools in defense areas,
and extension of the recip-
roca1 trade program.
Last week the Senate In
terror and Insular Affairs
Committee ordered hearings to
begin next Monday on pending
offshore oil bills. They are ex-
pected to last only a few days.
The committee allowed only
one day for proponents Of q
proposal sponsored by Senator
Hill, Democrat, Of Alabama
Evening star., 1953-02-11

and 81 other Senators TO de-
vote oil royalties under Fed
eral control for public educa-
ton, with the funds distrib-
uted to all Of the States on the
basis Of population. Under the
State control bill, royalties
would go to the States with
offshore deposits, of which
there are three as Of now. Cali
fornia, Texas and Louisiana.
This reporter learned all
about what can happen to oil
in State politics in an exhaus-
tive. investigation in 1899 In
Louisiana when shot oil" was
being produced and sneaked
out Of the bayous there in
violation of a State oil con-
Servation law. Some State poll

this profitable business and the

What About Stevenson's Fund?
Now Is Good Time to Ascertain Difference Between
Campaign Collections of Governor and Nixon

was there on a speaking trip,
Mr.. Stevenson said in part:
80 much for the matter Of
gifts to State employees. There
have been assertions that
there were other political con-
tributions made during my
administration. OF course
there were-1950, 1851 and
1852 were all election years in
Illinois. Campaign contribu-
tions were received in all these
years and they were spent for
political purposes"
This paragraph seems to
have been completely over
looked by otherwise inquisitive
newSpapermen travelling with
Gov. Stevenson during the last
campaign.
Gov. Stevenson was not a
candidate in either 1850 or
1851. No detailed information
has been made available as to
the sums collected either
from firms doing business with
the State government in Illi-
nois or from State employees,
though there have been
printed various charges that
State employees were required
to "kick in" a certain percent
age of their salaries. The full
amount Of the sums collected
has never been disclosed.
It is not to be inferred from
the foregoing that the Illinois
Governor did anything wrong
either in personally soliciting
campaign funds, as he did
once at a luncheon for a group
Of Chicago businessmen, or in
spending any part of the
funds in connection with trips
to make speeches, as did Vice
President Nixon when he was
Senator. But in the interest
of historical accuracy and fu-
ture appraisal Of methods used
in collecting political funds, it
Is desirable to ascertain
wherein the three Stevenson
funds differed, if at all. from
the Nixon fund raised not by
him but by a trustee and also
spent for political purposes"

New Look Into Korea Needed
Van Fleets Statement That Allies Were Denied Vlct
In June, 1851, Nay Reopen an Old Controversy

straining orders from the Joint
Chiefs Of STAFF.
This was revealed, In part
only, during the Macarthur
hearings. Testimony showed
that there had been q military
meeting Of minds between the
American generals who visited
Macarthur in Tokyo. But it
was changed into q disagree
ment after the former returned
to Washington and were pre-
sented with the political facts
of life as seen by the White
House and the State Depart
ment through the binders Of
the U. N.
Now, again. our British allies
intend to use every diplomatic
means at their disposal to pre-
vent the blockade Of Red
China. They point out now as
they have since the fall Of 1850
that any such action could ex-
tend the war and that they
want t6 see a status quo policy
adopted in Korea. They argue
that q blockade or an all-out
offensive might bring the
u S. S. RS intervention-as
If that country had not already
caused and intervened in the
Korean war.
The strongly expressed views
Of all the allied general stats
that Russia will strike when
ever she is ready, and that her
own general staff is by no
means certain at this time
that she can win a war, seems
to be ignored by our principal
European allies insofar as the
Far East is concerned.

clear how much Of that fund
was collected after the No
vember, 1948, election. There
was a substantial deficit in the
campaign fund at the time Of
his election.
Collections, of course, came
easily after the 1948 election,
and have been told they sur
passed the deficit and provided
a surplus which became the
kernel Of the controversial
personal expense fund used
for salary experimentation
through Christmas gifts
'I am the source of the story
that Stevenson personally used
money from a fund for his
own expenses. We published
the story after it\was verified
by Mr.. Flanagan. The late
James w. Mulroy, who was
fred by Stevenson. once
showed me a checkbook for
the private Stevenson fund.
His point was not in criticism
Of the Governor-he was de-
Scribing StevenSon'S meticu-
lous care in not using State
expense money. He showed
me records of checks drawn to
defray expenses for a trip to
the New York Herald Tribune
Forum, and to pay for candy
for a Governors Christmas
party. The two were cited as
examples.
"Verif1cation Of the fund
handled by Mulroy came from
Flanagan on questioning by
me. He said at the time he did
not know whether the fund
still (1951-52) existed, or who
was then handling it. Flana-
gan also declined to clarity
my questions as to just how
many funds there were. We
were never able to get salts
factory information on what
happened to the Forsyth fund,
or the similar fund which had
been collected by q group
headed by Herman Dunlap
Smith in the Chicago area"

ber 81, 1852, released at Louis
