BERN, Switzerland. - By
Air MaiD The Swiss are real
istically idealist. Throughout
their centuries of existence as
free people they have been sur
rounded by warning neighbors
who have attempted to either
conquer them or cajole them
into helping in Europe's peren-
NAL wars.
Hundreds of years of ex-
perience have taught them to
be careful and suspect the
motives of their neighbors.
Hence the fundamental prin-
ciple of their constitution is
never to enter into any
alliances or commitments
which may involve them in a
war which is not essentially
for the defense of their from
tiers.
But the Swiss have always
had an unbounded admiration
for their far-away sister re-
public, the United States. They
continue to be fond Of Ameri-
cans, who are received with
open arms, not because Of the
dollars they can still spend as
tourists. but because they are
citizens of a country which
stands for the same human
principles of freedom.
An element of doubt regard.
ing our StaunchneSs for these
principles has entered, how
ever, the minds of the good
Swiss burghers, who fear that
we are getting "Europeanized"
and not in the best meaning
of the word.
During his relatively brief
stay in Switzerland, this re-
porter has heard repeatedly
the questions: Are you not
by way of losing your free
dom? Haven't you become
hysterical over communism
and are you sufficiently ex-
perienced to handle the pres
ent complex international
affairs?" Then comes, in the
same breath the $64 question:
What about Mccarthy"

I'VE actually don't know
what this man did or did not

sentative here and was accused
Of a base crime not by your
executive branch of the Gov
ernment but by Mccarthy and
some other Senators. Accord
ing to our Jurisprudence he
should have been tried by
courts. I realize that condi-
tions are different in America,
but our good burghers don't.

take advantage of this mental
confusion in Europe-of which
we Swiss are an integral part
to prove that America is not

Hence, the doubts about
Americas competence to lead.
It must be added that in the
creation of this confusion a
number minority-of State
Department officials engaged
in public relations in Europe
have helped create this con-
cept that McCarthyism, Nc
Carranism and other such

This was done skillfully by

Putting IVA on the Defensive
tennessee Governors Conference With Eisenhower
Has More implications Than Appear on Surfoce

There is far more meaning
In an episode here this week
than may appear at first
glance.
This was the trip to Wash
ington by young Gov. Frank
Clement of Tennessee, who sat
down with President Eisen-
hover at the White House and
laid before him facts about
the great iva in Tennessee
in an effort to convince the
President that iva is not, as
the latter said, creeping So
cialiSm."

about what is going on in this

the first time in 20 years, Ten
neSSee had to defend it's great
project from a President of
the United States. That has
not happened before, so far
as a President is concerned.
TVA was accepted and under
stood by Mr.. Eisenhower's two
predecessors, and, in fact,
fought for by them. Franklin
D. Roosevelt, of course. spon-
Sored it before Congress, which
approved it. Harry S. Truman
heartily approved it and saw
in it. as did his predecessor, a
model for utilization for the
people Of all our great water
sheds. That has been accom-
plished to an extent already,
particularly in the Pacific
Northwest.
Now, not only in the case
of iva, but in the case also of
rural electrif1cation through
co-operativeS and in expansion
of river basin development, the
people suddenly find them
selves on the defensive. No
longer do they have a cham
pion in the President of the

turn these public enterprises,
financed by the taxpayer,

possible, to private profit.

verSation with Swiss interested
in foreign affairs it is obvious
that they have formed their
strong opinions principally
from their newspapers. These

torially on the basis Of dis
patches from New York and
Washington, quoting at length
those most violently opposed
to the Wisconsin Senator and
those of his colleagues who are
attempting to remove Commu-
nists from our public offices.
One of the most distin-
guished editors in this couY-
try was telling this reporter
with genuine sorrow in his
voice: "You are losing your
liberties. We here fear that
we can no longer look to you
for inspiration but must once
more turn to England for lead
ership in the present fight for
freedom"
When asked whether he, as
a Swiss, would favor enemy
agents in this country's public
life the answer was: "Of course
not. but this is not your posi-
ton"

ness leaders who knows Amer

The men living in the huts
claim maintenance is a sour
joke in connection with them.
The engineers don't go that
far. but they do say that, over
period of eight to 10 years,
such housing costs more in the
aggregate than decent con-
crete-block barracks would
cost.

not convince him entirely of
his point of view. Unless the
President digs in and does
what he has not done pre-
viouSly, which is to familiariZe
himself with the whole power

assumed that he will continue
to follow the digested advice
of subordinates who know
