demonstrate the wisdom Of
their Southern brethren in
hitherto using the filibuster.
Everybody knows that a sub
stantial majority in the last
Congress voted for the tide
lands" oil bill, and hence it
is not a new issue or one which
can be laid at the doorstep of
President Eisenhower. Ger
tainly he came out for the bill
before being nominated last
year. but he did so in recogni-
ton of the stand taken by the
majority of his own party.
Even so, the vote cast by
Democrats for the "tidelands"
legislation does not justify the
charge that the Republicans
are guilty of giving away"
Federal lands that belong to
the people" For then the
Democrats are equally guilty
according to the tally in the
last Congress.
Thus, 100 Democrats in the
House voted on July 30, 1851.
for the "tidelands" bill and 81
against it, when it passed by
a total of 265 to 100.
Also, in the Senate on April
2, 1852, there were "a Demo-
Gratis for the bill and "a Dem
ocratS against it. so it can
be seen that a majority of the
total number of Democrats in
both houses favored the
"tidelands" legislation.
When the final conference
report was voted on in the
House. "a Democrats voted for
the bill and 10 against it. The
Senate agreed to it by a voice
vote, which indicated that the
Democrats had no particular
reason to make a record vote
on the measure and didn't
seriously object to its passage.

Soviets Seek Deal to Split Iran
KremIn RePortedy Urging Britain to Cooperate
In Dividing Up That Oi-Rich Nation Two Ways

The Kremlin manifestations,
which should be described as a
diplomatic" and not peace"
offensive, continue unabated.
They are directed principally
at the major European nations
Great Britain, France and
Germany-and are aimed to
create a real rift between
Western Europe and the
United States.
There is a deep suspicion in
responsible quarters in WASH
ington that besides the empty
words which are being poured
by the Kremlin into the ears
Of our Western European allies
some more tangible PROPOSE
tions are being made in secret
to the British government for
a future Anglo-Soviet coop
Grafton in the Middle East.
These advances are said to
concern principally Iran at
this time.
The U. S. s. r. government
is reported to have suggested
to the British a partition of
Iran, with Britain occupying
the southern section where the
oil wells and refinery installa-
tionS of the Anglo-Iranian Co.
are situated. while the Reds
would occupy the equally OIL
rich northern portion, the
Azerbaijan province.
In the last few weeks the
Iranian situation has become
more alarming than ever be-
fore. Prime Minister MosSa-
degh has overplayed his hand.
The treasury is empty: ira

ever flimsy authority Shah

still have had and deprived the

BuNfight Called
Game of the Bull
ToAppeoseI Italians
BY the Assoeioted PresS

NAPLES, Italy, April %. -
When is a bullfight not a bull
fight? When it's a game of the
bull, says Carmelo Torres, or
ganizer Of what may be 1taly's
first spectacle Of the sort since
ancient Roman gladiator days.
The affair is scheduled for
sometime in late May or early
June but Torres is meeting a
lot of obstacles from kind-heart-
ed Neopolitans, the society for
the prevention Of cruelty to an
imals and the Italian govern
ment, which has a 1910 law on
the books forbidding that sort of
thing.

call this a corrida but a giocco

Many a campaign speech last

small majorities and the usual
history Of off-year elections,
which is that the outs make
gains in the Congress.
Republicans have as yet de-
vised no overall strategy for
holding on to their Southern
gains: it is one of the many
problems with which the new
national chairman, Leonard
Hall, is graphing. Meanwhile,
they have sent one Of their
most experienced scouts. Vic

in the effort to defeat the bill
disclaim. of course. any inten-
tions to filibuster, and one Of
them says that the purpose Of
the prolonged debate is only
to educate" the people on the
issues. It certainly doesn't
take 10 days to do anything
of that kind. especially on an
issue as well known as the
"tidelandS" bill.
About the only point ger
name to the issue being made
is that the proposed legisla-
ton would take away from all
the people the oil that be-
longs to them and give it to a
few States. But in those few
States are a substantial num-
ber of Americans-not foreign
ers. Hence, If the legislation
does give to the State govern
ments the right to lease the
oil lands to their people, it is
hard to convince any fair
minded person that it is all
right for the State govern
ments Of Texas or Louisiana
or Florida to lease mineral
resources for development by
its citizens within the land
boundaries of the State, as
they do now, but not in the
submerged areas lying. for
example. along the coast Of
Texas.
The whole filibuster is an ILL
advised step that will cost the
liberals" far more than they
can possibly gain by their
exhibitionism. For, in the long
run, the public will remember
that it was the liberals" who
conducted this filibuster and
consequently there cannot be

that in the event foreign

Britain was reminded that
late in 1945, under the excuse
that there was trouble IN Azer-

Stalin's successors have

They believe that there can be
no threat to their plans If
Britain or other Western coun-
tries are given some crumbs
from the Muscovite table and
detached from the American
alliance.
A partition of Iran between
Britain and the U. S. S. r.
would serve among other
things to convince the British
people that Russia is not selfish
and is willing to share with
others its gains made at the
expense of weaker nations. The
naturalization of the oil fields
in Southwestern Iran has been
a serious blow, not only to the
British economic interests but
also to Britain's prestige in the
East.
The rapid political and eco
nomic disintegration of Iran Is
now expected to be followed by
a chaotic situation. It would
serve as an excellent excuse for
the partition of that country
between the U. S. s. r. and
Britain. leaving only a rump
state between the two areas
with Teheran as the capital.
