They want US to believe that
if you are against communism, it
does not matter whether you are
just and truthful, or whether
you uphold the decencies of

The United States, he declared,
is becoming a nation of fear and
Washington "a city of intimi-
dated people"
"Not only ordinary workers
for the Government, but those
in high positions-indeed, the
Government itself-is now afraid.
There is no chance at all, none
whatever, that a frightened ma
ton will survive" he said.
II do not hesitate to say" he
went on, that. at present, no
major proposal in foreign policy
which was disliked by Senator
Mccarthy would be advanced by
the Government. It is no longer
a question of whether the Sen
ator from Wisconsin will some
day rule the United States: to
a great extent he is ruling it al

They see no reason whatso-
ever why they should be sucked
into such q maelstrom. too.
Even our preferred help to
the French who are fighting in
Indo- China seems to be mis-
understood. This war which
has been going on for seven
years has drained the French
treasury of upward Of So bill
lion and is highly unpopular.
The prevailing opinion Of the
man in the street who happens
to talk about that far away
colonial" campaign is that by
a good understanding with
Moscow the war could be called
off Immediately. America, they
say, is throwing a few hundred
million dollars into it to keep
the kettle boiling for its own
purposes. The political men
who know better don't dare
contradict this view too loudly.
They know that elections may
be around the corner and the
man in the street holds the
life of the politicians in his
hand.
But where the man in the
street and the politician see
definitely eye to eye is in the
agreement that Europe needs
no armed forces and no dollars
but only new markets. And the
800 million people who live be-
hind the Iron Curtain are po-
tential customers for every
thing from shoe-laces to elec-
trical equipment. There is no
need to worry over dollar ball
ances. These people are ready
to barter as soon as Moscow
says the word. Moreover, e
story is going around Europe
that there are mountains Of
gold in the u. s. s. r." more
than America guards so jeal-
ously in it's caves.
"You would be surprised"
concludes the French news
man, IF you came to Europe at
the amount of hostility which
prevails against your country
and your countrymen. You
would be equally surprised to
find out the esteem in which
the Russians are held in many
sections Of Europe"

Red China Can Act for Peace
Latest u N. Formula on Korea Is Ingenious Compromise
And Can Easily Establish Truce if Foe Prefers One

If Red China really wants
truce in Korea, this fact
will be established in the next
few days by her willingness
to accept a sensible formula
devised by the United Nations
countries directly involved in
the conflict.
The latest peace plan con-
forms to the basic positions
already taken by both sides
in previous announcements
and offers. It is an ingenious
compromise.
The essentials of the plan
are these:
/. The allies stand together
in being willing to accept q
decision-to be made after
hostilities have ceased-by a
political conference" of five
nations as to which prisoners
shall be returned to Commu-
mist custody and which ones
shall be released as civilians
with the right to go wherever
they please.
2. During a period of 80 days
and that's a stipulated time
limit-representatives of the
Communists will be permitted
to go back of the United Ma
tions lines and talk with the
$4,000 prisoners and present
arguments as to why they
should return to Communist
jurisdiction.
3. At the end of the 80
days, a five-nation commission
will examine the individual
cases and be asked to certify
whether those who say they
want to return to the Commu-
mist side did SO voluntarily or
under coercion. The commits
sion's decision will be final.
4. Whether. in making a de-
cision on these cases, the five
member commission will vote
unanimously or by majority
depends on the wording of the
document finally agreed upon.
The whole plan contem-.
plates voluntary repatria-
ton" but the Communists
have been so confident that
they could persuade the A.

900 prisoners to go back to
them that 1t now has come
down to a question of what
is meant by 'persuading" or
by presenting the facts" to
the prisoners themselves. The
way is opened for the Com
muniStS to use a face saving"
device to protect them on the
propaganda front. They can,
if they like, always accuse the
Allies Of "coercing" and ''in-
timidating" the prisoners If a
majority don't 60 back. If
by chance a majority do 60
back to Communist jurisdic-
ton, neither Moscow no:
Peiping needs to be very
much concerned about the way
the final statistics on the re.
luctant minority show up
especially since the decision
will not be known until at
least 80 days after the fighting
has ceased. BY that time such
important questions as uni
f1cation of Korea" will be in
the limelight and neither side
is likely to avail itself Of
technicalitieS about the re-
turn of prisoners as an excuse
to resume fighting. Instead,
the palavering then could 60
on for years.
Such concessions as have
been made in the Allied pro-
posalS for a truce have been
in the interest of testing the
good faith Of the Communists.
If they don't want a truce,
they can find plenty of things
to argue about and on which
to deadlock the negotiations
further. But it is significant
that before the latest plan
was sent to Gen. Mark Clark
in Tokyo for presentation to
the Communists by Gen. Will
liam Harrison, the United
States Government entered
into full and frank discussions
with the governments of Brit
ain and France and it may be
stated authoritatively that all
the Allies are in absolute
agreement.

What Price McCqrthyisnn?
Britain Could Force Action Over Senator'S Chorge
On China Trade by Revealing All of the Facts

The price abroad Of Nc
Carthyism began to appear last
week end when British news
papers demanded that the
British government take formal
issue with the United States
Government over the Nc
Carthy charges against British
shipping in the China trade.
The British know that their
position is understood at the
State Department. They know
that Secretary of State Dulles
supported it in at least two
letters to Senator Mccarthy.
These letters have still to be
made public.
Vice President Nixon, it is
also known, persuaded Sena-
tor Mccarthy to withdraw the
letter he threatened to write
President Eisenhower in the
matter. The Nixon interven-
ton is defensible on the
ground that the President
should not be put on the spot
in so serious a matter of for
eign policy.
Actually it helps Senator
Mccarthy even more. Once
the President is involved, he
must put his great prestige
firmly on one side or the other
and it might very we'll be that
the Senator would be the loser.

more discretion, without spe-
cif1c statute such as the Taylor
Act, because it's problem is
different, the land it is con-
serving is much more val
liable.
This brings us to the new
raid on conservation.
For a long time, livestock
interests-though by no means
all Of them in the Western
public lands-have wanted to
shake off the restraining
hand Of the Forest Service,
particularly. but also to loosen
the control of the Bureau of
Land Management.
This would be done in the
bill now being considered by
the House Interior and Insular
Affairs Committee. It would
weaken the authority of
the Secretary of Agriculture
and the Forest Service in his
department over grazing lands
IN national forests, and would
set up virtually vested rights
in now existing grazing per-
mitS, both in the national
forests and in other public
lands. The national forests
are the real goal in this bill,
though it is presented in the
guise Of a measure to get
uniformity" by having the
same rules and regulations for
them as for other public lands
covered by the Taylor Act. Or,
as the bill was described by a
fighting editor. Robert w.
Sawyer. publisher Of the
Bend tOregD Bulletin, it "has
been on the assembly Of Ger
tain livestock interests for
many years.
THE fact is that this legis-
lation harkS back to the days
Of land script. The grazing
privilege would become some
thing that the holder could
sell as he pleased. In other
words the present permittee
could sell rights to a specific
piece Of the public land and
the public would have prac-
tically no voice in the transac-
ton"
Expert witnesses before the
committee feared that the
Evening star., 1953-05-25

here by the State Department
was to invite the members Of
Subcommittees of the House
Foreign Affairs Committee and
of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee last week to listen
to an explanation Of the latest
formula and to make Sugges-
tionS before the final draft
was presented. Most of the dis
cussion turned on whether q
unanimous vote or a majority
vote should prevail in the five
nation commission. Since
Poland and Czechoslovakia will
vote the way the Com
munists want them to vote and
since Sweden and Switzerland
will deal effectively with the
issues of fact that may arise
as to whether the prisoners are
coerced or really persuaded to
go back - the vote in many
cases could be a tie and then
India's representative would
have to cast the deciding
ballot. If unanimity is required,
any Of the five nations would
have the power of veto and be
able to block the return of the
prisoners who were proved to
have been intimidated either by
threats about the safety OF
their families behind Commu-
mist lines or by brain twist
ing"
1t is probeble the allies will
insist on having their own OBJ
servers present when prisoners
are being interviewed about
their return to Communist
territory. Indian troops will be
permitted to take charge of
the prisoner camps once the
armistice machinery is set in
motion.
It has not been expected
here that a Korean truce would
come Immediately but only
after another recess during
which the Communists ex-
anime the counterproposals
being made by the allies. The
showdown or climax, however,
Is at hand as the area for
negotiation has narrowed.

quiescence indicates that he
knows this very we'll and pre-
ferred to take the headline
cash and let the future credit
go.
Indeed. as of now, the Sena-
tor is inevitably the major
beneficiary of the Vice Presi-
dents repeated peace-making
between the White House and
Senator Mccarthy. In any
real contest between the two,
the President must and will
win for the present.
- It is a favor to the Senator
to give him a chance to make
an apparently generous ges-
ture toward Gen. Eisenhower.
He will always take it-until
he is satisfied the Eisenhower
luster is dimmed.
The British are offering a
series of statements and facts,
officially and through shipping
concerns which assert the op-
posite of the Mccarthy testi-
mony. They have no conf
dence that they will be allowed
by the Senator to clutter up
his juicy record.
The thorniest point of all,
of course, is the charge that
British ships transported Chi
neSe Communist troops along
the China coast within the
past year. This has very high

Thomas L. Stokes:

The whole saga of the West,
first, the ravishing of it's land
and its forests and the wasting
of its waters by unthinking
pioneers, and. then, the re-
cuperative measures in the last
so years to restore and build
up-all of that unfolds before
you as you sit, as this report
er has for several days, in the
House Interior and Insular
Affairs Committee.
It is a dramatic, and in it's
later episodes, an encouraging
story.
Except-that the reason it
all comes out is because, once
again, the spoilers are at it.
Yes, even before President
Eisenhower signed into law last
Saturday the bill to give Off
shore oil lands to the States,
the wheels were in motion,
here in this Interior Commit
tee room. for another at
tempted raid on our public do
main, this time chiefly in the
West.
This concerns grazing of
cattle and sheep on our public
lands and in our national
forests. That has to be done
properly and with due care
to the grass cover which is
needed to hold down the soil,
to prevent erosion. to conserve
all the water possible for a
land that is short of water,
to prevent floods. to protect
the timber growth. Grazing
was once done !ndiscrimi-
nately. which explains many
of the waste and denuded
areas of today.
The Forest Service Of the
Agriculture Department looks
after conservation of our
national forests and super
viSes grazing on those public
lands. Grazing on other public
lands outside the national
forests Is under supervision
and regulation of the Bureau
Of Land Management of the
Interior Department, under
terms Of the Taylor Act of
1894. The Forest Service has

Loyalty Oath Law +
For Tenants Ruled
Unconstitutional
BY the Assoeiuted Pres,

NEW YORK, July 9.-A loyal
ty oath for tenants of Federally-
aided low-cost housing projects
in New York was held to be un-
constitutional yesterday by a
State Supreme Court justice.
The law was enacted by Con-
gress in July, 1852, and provides
that tenants in such projects
must certify they are not men,
bers of any group listed as sub
versive by the United States At
torney General.
The New York City Housing
Authority. which operates 18
Iow-rent projects containing 49,
945 families, adopted a resolu-
ton to implement the law.
It required that loyalty certifl-
Gates be gievn by all present or
prospective tenants.
Challenged by Tenant.
This was challenged by Mrs.
Rebecka Peters. a tenant in Will
liamsburg Houses, a big project
in Brooklyn. She called the
authority's action "capricious,
arbitrary and unreasonable" =.
Justice M. Henry Martuscello,
sitting in Brooklyn, ruled yester-
day in her favor. He said the
Federal statute and the Housing
Authority resolution deprived
tenants Of the "due process of
law" guaranteed by the State
and Federal Constitutions.
Justice Martuscello said the
United States Supreme Court
has questioned the constitution
ality of the manner in which the
Attorney General compiled the
list of organizations alleged to be
subversive.
No Hearing Provided.
Organizations so listed, he
said, should have been found to
be subversive only latter a
hearing granting all the safe
guards of due process as under
stood by our courts since the
time of the adoption of the Fed
.eral constitution"
No such hearing was provided,
he said.
Justice Martuscello said the
Federal law and the Authority'S
resolution depart radically
from our prevailing concepts of
fairness and do not afford due
process of law"
