II. How can the United
States remain member of an
international body known as
"the United Nations" when, in
fact, one set. of members have
been supplying arms and
munitions to help kill the
troops Of other members,
mostly those of the United
States and the Republic of
Korea?
II. If there's peace in Korea,
why aren't taxes reduced. and
why are American boys going
to keep on being drafted?
Lots of explanations will be
made to gloss over the military
defeat which the U. N. has suf-
fered, and it is tragic that Gen.
Eisenhower in his letter for
got about the spirit of the
American soldier when he con-
ceded defeat and weariness
of fighting. The plain truth
might we'll have been included
that the troops of the United
States and South Korea were
not defeated but were pre-
vented from using maximum
military power to obtain vic
tory and that the responsibility
for the defeat must rest
squarely on the British gov
ernment, which feared that
not enough money and troops
would be available for Europe
if America became engaged in
a war to obtain victory in Asia.
This is the first time that a
military effort of the United
States, in conjunction with
allies, has been defeated. The
enemy has dictated the terms
of the armistice and will die
tate the terms of peace. A di-
vided Korea is being rational
lied already by administration
supporters as an academic OBJ
jective. Also, the admission Of
Red China to the U.N. has
been announced as a definite
objective of Great Britain, de-
spite protests from this coun-
try that this would be a re-
ward for the aggressor. The
U. N. has lost a war 1t could
have won.

Ways and Means Committee
Chairman Reed and other Re-
publicans urged a closed rule
barring amendments. Demo-
cratic leaders demanded an open
rule.
Representative Cooper of Ten
nessee, ranking minority men,
ber of the Ways and Means
Committee, said he sought such
a rule so he, could offer amend
ments for an extension of one
year without change and for
leaving the Tariff Commission

Representative Mccormack of

Associated Press Science Editor

BLOOMINGTON, Ind, June
1O.-Dr. Alfred C. Kinsey will
disclose his zealously guarded
findings about the sex life of
women in 10 weeks, on August 10.
Newspaper and magazine
writer's here this week are read
ing proofs of his long-awaited
book, "Sexuel Behavior in the
Human Female"
They are pledged not to tell
any one but their editors what
the book says until August 20.
The Kinsey book itself will actu-
ally be published "a few weeks
later"
One reason for the secrecy is
to prevent some book authors
from jumping the gun-publish-
ing what purports to be conden-
sations of the female book, DR.
Kinsey explained.
There are five books. to my
knowledge. which hope to beat

guess everything decided upon
in Foreign Relations.
In an effort to make the pro-
gram more palatable, Senator
Humphrey of Minnesota has
suggested amendments de-
signed to be helpful to the
American farmers whose sur
pluses are becoming critical.
One proposes to give the
President wide latitude in the
use of surplus commodities
whenever they are in danger of
going to waste or their con-
tinued storage would represent
an excessive cost to this coun-
try. Surpluses of this type
have been used before in a
similar manner but such &C
ton required the specific, di-
rect consent of Congress.
Under the Humphrey plan.
the President would not need
to ask permission. The Sena-
tor from Minnesota admits
frankly his hope that foreign
aid in terms of vexing sur
pluses will have greater appeal
for the Midwest.
Another Humphrey amend
ment provides that unex-
pended balances for military
aid to 1ndo-China should go,
when and as hostilities cease,
into the purchase of food
stuffs.
These approaches may not
survive in the final bill but
Senators who were thinking
hard about surpluses even be-
fore the Korean truce are in
dicating a friendly interest in
them.

Dorothy Thompson:

Last week end Senator Taft
amplif1ed the views he had ex-
pressed on May 26 and a
former United States deputy to
the U. N. attacked them.
The admirable (though ir-
ritating) thing about Senator
Taft is his prediction for
calling a spade a spade and
not a golden spoon. That
alone would keep him from
being nominated or elected
President in an age that favors
the abstract and fictional over
the concrete and real. The
United Nations as a system of
collective security is a pious
hope, as Senator Taft proved
merely by accurately describ-
ing it.
That great power policies
rest not on the U. N. but on
military alliances is a fact.
The great powers have no
common aspirations. So within
the United Nations are two
military alliances, with pros
poets of several more, the
largest. most unified and most
aggressive being that led by
the U. S. S. r. Senator Taft
advocated that the United
States extend its military al
liances in Asia as it has done
in Europe. Actually, that is
what the previous administra-
ton and this one have been
trying to do.
There have been two wars
between satellites of these milf
tary blocS since the U. N. was
founded. Both initiated as civil
wars: The war in Greece and
the war in Korea.
In Greece, neighboring Com
muniSt satellites aided Greek
Communists and insurgents,
and Britain and the United
States the government forces.
No external troops intervened
and there was no pretense that
the struggle was q U. N. war.

Truce May Be a Boomerang
Plenty OF Explanations Will Be Offered to Gloss Over
The Military Defeat Which IT, NJ Has Suffered
David LoWrence:

Politically a truce in Korea
may help the Eisenhower ad-
ministration-but only tempo
rarily. Already the subject Of
how long 1t will be before the
Korean truce as an issue will
boomerang against the admin
istration is being discussed
here, and some political ana
lysts think the criticism will be
overwhelming in six months.
Others think nine months.
Judgment is being predi-
Gated on the belief that the
American people do not at the
moment realize what has hap
pened. They have not yet been
able to come to a decision be-
cause the discussion has just
begun. Likewise. in the next
few months every act of faith
leSsness by the Communists in
the Far East or in Southeast
Asia will be pointed to as con-
firmation of the unwisdom Of
the Korean agreement.
Questions that will be asked
in the debate that will go on
inside both the Democratic and
Republican Parties are these:
l. Why did President Eisen-
hover accept the provisions
laid down by the Truman
Acheson administration when
a new negotiation could have
been begun with new terms
when the talks were resumed
in April after having been bro
ken off last autumn?
2. Why do Spokesmen for the
United Nations and for the ad-
ministration insist that aggres-
sion has been "repelled" in
Korea. when the aggressor as
formally named by the U. NJ
Red China-still has 100000
troops stationed in the middle
of Korea, having come all the
way from the Yalu River to the
present battle line?
3. Why, after the aggres-
sion of the North Korean
armies was halted in October,
1850. did the U. N. armies
receive permission from the
U. N. allies to cross the 38th
Parallel and drive toward the
Yalu River?
1. Why were casualties in
Evening star., 1953-06-10

CURED il victory and the uni
fication of Korea had been
abandoned as military objec-
tives and the sole purpose was
to "repel aggression" at the
middle of Korea?
5. Why did Gen. Eisen-
hover offer the Republic of
Korea a mutual-defense pact
with the United States alone
when it is the u. N. which has
presumably assumed the re-
sponSibility for repelling ag-
greSSion in Korea?
6. Does this mean-as SEN
ator Taft recommendation
abandonment of the u. N. as a
primary means of defending
Korea?
7. Why did Gen. Eisen-
hover in his letter to Presi-
dent Rhee ignore the request
of the Republic of Korea that
it's country be rid of the Com
munist Chinese troops which
invaded Korea and committed
acts of aggression formally de-
nounced by the U. NJ?
8. Why were Americ a n
troopS-which, together with
the South Koreans, have done
almost 80 per cent of the
f1ghting-prevented from US
ing maximum force to win,
and why was the plan of Gen.
Macarthur submitted last De-
cember to President-elect Ell
SenhoWer for the winning of
the Korean war disregarded?
9. What explanation will be
made to the American military
forces of the future concern
ing victory as an objective
when the United States con-
cedes it must carry on only
such military operations as
other governments may die
tate to it. even though the
enemy is not restricted by an
international body or alliance?
10. What explanation will
the Truman and Eisenhower
administrations give for fail
ure to insist that all trade with
Red China and Soviet Russia
in strategic materials be cut
off during the last three years
by all members of the U.N.?

Murray and Krouse Arrive
Today to Press TVFiqht

There also is some sentiment
for putting television on a re-
gional basis, but this, too, ap-
parently doesn't have enough
hackers.
In addition to whatever rec
ommendation is made by the
Television Committee, the NCAA
delegates will get a chance to
vote on the University of Penn
sylvania proposal for unrestricted
television.
The resolution backed by
Murray would allow any school
to make its own television plans
through agreement with its op-
ponents in each game. One
third of the television receipts
would go into special fund.
From that fund, payments would
be made to NCAA members who
could show they were hurt by
television. Any surplus would be
used for scholarships for post
graduate studies by football
players.
Unless there is a big change
in sentiment, that plan has
little chance of passing. Pre-
vious votes were very one-sided
in favor of strict controls. On
January IL, 1851, the vote for
controls was 1917. On January
II last year the vote was 1888
and a referendum mail vote an
nounced June 8 last year was
1876.

eligible for the Met AAU event,
restricted to athletes of the New
York area.
According to Howard p. Bailey,

a protestover the reported action
of the New York AAU has been
filed with Daniel j. Ferris, ma

Francis Murray, athletic di-
rector at the University Of Penn

ton at Notre Dame, were due in
Washington today to lead the
fight against restricted television
Of college football.
Preparing for tomorrow's open
sessions of the 47th annual con-
vention Of the National Cole
giate Athletic Association at
which television will be a major
problem. the two leading oppon-
ents Of the NCAA control plan
face an uphill fight. Sentiment
of voting members Of the NCAA
has been heavily against unre-
stricted television in three bal
lots in the last two years, and
little change is expected.
The NCAA's Television Com
mittee had another all-day meet
ing today-the same as yester-
day-putting the final touches on
its report and recommendations
The actual voting by the full con-
vention probably won't take place
until Saturday, but the report
will be up for discussion by the
convention tomorrow afternoon
In New York yesterday, Krause
told a Notre Dame alumni meet
ing that "television is here to
stay" but he permitted the Rev
Edmond Joyce, executive vice
president of Notre Dame, to dc
most Of the talking about the
schools position. That position
was outlined in a 10-point state
ment by the president. the Rev.
Theodore M. Hesburgh, last Sat-
urday.
None of the recommendations
in the NCAA Television Commit
tee report have been announced
as yet. but they are believed to
be similar to last years game
of-the-week program that had
only one big game on TV every
Saturday. There is some senti-
ment for not announcing the
full schedule of T'V games before
the season opens. but awaiting
developments later in the season
to see which games are of ma
ticnal interest.
There also is some talk about
the possibility Of allowing games
to be televised on a local basis
when such games are sellouts.
That was done on a few occa-
sions last season as exceptions
to the NCAA plan.
