The next candidate for oblivion
logically would be Vyacheslav Mo-
lotov, another deputy premier, who
has never been seriously consid-
cred as a rival to the top man.
Malenkov derives most of his back
ing, Of course, from the powerful
Communist Party. He probably
was supported by the armed forces,
under Marshal Nikolai Bulganin,
in the battle with Beria.
It was almost automatic that the
struggle for absolute dominance
would continue behind the Krem-
lin walls until only one of the "old
guard" stood alone and supreme.
With the Tagging" Beria now out
of the way, 1t was time for Malen-
kov and his rivals to seek out a

FOR SEVEN YEARS the pattern
i had been the same. The
Soviet Union acted; the United
States reacted.
Even in the most noble instances
of rising to the occasion-the Ber-
lin airlift, the Greek aid program,
the Korean Intervention, the crea-
ton and build-up of NATO-the
United States essentially was re-
acting to some move the Red bloc
had made.
It could hardly have been other
wise, the two forms of government
being what they were. But it was
uncomfortable for the United
States, and by chain reaction the
rest of the world.
President Eisenhower had noted
this fact on number of occasions
and had spoken Of seizing the
psychological offensive.
In a surprise move on Friday
night, President Eisenhower de-
cided to change the script a bit, and
let the Russians do the reacting
for a change. He did it in
typical American (as opposed to
RuSsian) way-with bread instead
Of bullets.
The people Of East Germany
have been In a state of unrest for
years and in a state of near or
actual riot for almost a month.
Their principal grievance against
their Soviet oppressors: Too much
work, too little food.
The President, seizing the initia-
tive at time when the Kremlin
is In a turmoil, sent a note to
Moscow Offering SIS million dol
lars worth of food for the hungry
East Germans. The cost-nothing;
strings attached-none; just free
food to AL hungry bellies for the
sake Of common decency.

Big Three

THERE WAS no agenda on the
l. table as the Big Three foreign
ministers sat down, in conference
room on the 18th floor Of l778
Pennsylvania avenue NV. 1t was,
every one agreed, better that way:
Lack of an agenda would make for
fuller, freer discussion Of a multi
plicity of topics.
There was, some observers dis
cerned, another reason for not hav-
ing an agenda. In a meeting Of
this sort, communique follows con-
ference as night follows day, and
where an agenda exists, all its
topics must be reported on in the
communique. This way, If nothing
happened, who was to know?
The Berio BombsheII
The conferees, Secretary of State
John Foster Dulles, French For
eign Minister Georges Bidault, and
British Acting Foreign Secretary
Lord Salisbury, first met on Fri
day. Only about IL hours before
they convened, Soviet Minister of
Internal Affairs Lavrenti Beria
was denounced as a traitor and
deposed.
Thus, the stage was set for the
Big Three meeting to open on a
note of emphasizing the obvious.
"a new convulsion," Mr.. Dulles told
his co-conferees, "is under way in
Russia"
The question of what the Rus
sian upheaval means Immediately
became Item No. on the nom
existent agenda. But while it over
shadowed all other topics before
the ministers, it did not exclude
them.
Eye on Eost Europe :
Although no agreements have
been reached on anything of world

apparently are devoting good bit
of time to the question of East
Europe, where unrest is rife. There
was a report, as the conference
got under way, that the United
States favored an ask-no-quarter,
give-no-quarter policy toward the
Soviet Union in light of the East
ern European trouble, while the
British and French would prefer
to make some sort of deal. From
Moscow Radio came word that the
Kremlin still wants a Big Four
meeting . 81. or Big Two get
together with Britain If America
won't agree.
The second-level conference, held
in lieu of a top-drawer meeting
originally scheduled for Bermuda,
will make no final decisions. But
it is expected to lay some founda-
tions that may later prove i'm
portant.

Every worker in whatever post
must be under the constant con-
troll of the. party" Pravda said.
And to weed out the Beria crowd
from the secret police, "It is neces-
sary to check Systematically and
unremittingly the activity of the
U. S. s. r. Ministry of Internal
Affairs. This is not only the right,
but the direct duty of party organ
lzationS."
. AppeGsement OF the masses.
The workers, who have made quite
a point of being completely fed
up with Communist exploitation,
apparently can look forward to
more appeasement: "The force
and invincibility of our party lies
In its close and indestructible link
with the masses and the people.
ITS task is to strengthen and de-
velop this relation, to consider
with profound feeling workers de-
mands, to care daily for an all
round improvement of workers,
collective farmers and all Soviet
peoples living standards"
. Propaganda. The work in the
propaganda field apparently had
been most unsatisfactory. "It is
necessary to improve decisively
party propaganda and the policy
of educational work among the
masses, to study Marxist-Leninist
theory not dogmatically, to achieve
not the mastery Of individual for
mutations and quotations, but the
essence of the all-conquering rev.
olutionary teaching of Marx
Engels-Lenin- Stain which trans
forms the world That is the task
of our propaganda"
The Pravda editorial was a broad
hint to the party faithful that an
extended period of sweet falkland
possibly softer policies-was COM
ing up both in the Soviet Union
and its satellites. That wouldn't
mean, of course, that the party
couldn't get rough again inside
those Kremlin walls.

Meaning

Those who looked for inklings Of
what the Beria custer would mean
to Kremlin policy in general and
the peace offensive in particular,
pored over Pravda's indignant Fri
day editorial discussing Beria's
crimes.
. Peace offensive. The editorial
noted with satisfaction, "The new
peaceful initiative demonstrated
by the Soviet government has
brought about the further
strengthening of the international
position of the Soviet Union, the
growth Of the authority of our
country, the serious upsurge in the
international movement for the
preservation and strengthening OF
peace" This passage showed no
tendency to alter the "soft" policy,
which has looked ripe for change
since last months uprisings in the
East European satellites.
. "Gouernment by committee"
The principle of committee rule
apparently would be continued.
"The strength Of our leadership
lies in its COLLECTIVELY, solidarity
and monolithic character" Pravda
stated. "The COLLECTIVELY of leader
ship is the highest principle of the
leadership in our party"
. Party is supreme. AS among the
three main forces in the Soviet
power struggle the party, the
secret police and the armed forces

parently scored q telling blow.

1T WAS A WEEK Of change and
l. high excitement, with the focus
of world attention sweeping across
the globe like a Searchhght across
the sky.
First the focus was on Korea,
where tough old Syngman Rhee
was standing patriotically pat on
his decision to fight on, armistice
or no armistice.
Then the world glanced toward
Washington, where the leading
diplomats Of the West prepared
to talk over their mutual problems.
And then the gaze shifted sud-
denly to Moscow, where a case
hardened Red, branded as an
"imperialist agent" was prepared
for the slaughter as the latest
scapegoat in the bizarre rites OF
Soviet power politics.
The scene changed again-back
to Washington, where gift Of
food for hungering Germans posed
q knotty problem for the nervous
men in the Kremlin.
And then the spotlight shone
once more on Seoul, where at last
Syngman Rhee appeared ready to
countenance a truce as the least
Of all available evils.
The week ended with the focus
on Panmunjom, site Of the cease
fire talks since their removal from
Kaesong. After a seemingly in
cessant, fllibuster over terms,
peace appeared once again to be
in reach.
Things that had attracted the
attention of Americans earlier in
the week-the battle over excess
profits taxes, the latest act of
the Mccarthy fantasy - already
seemed far behind in the eleventh.

Replacement for Berio

Only one segment of the Beria
empire has been bequeathed to a
2 successor so far. The title of Min
lister of Internal Affairs has been
handed over to 56-year-oId Sergei
Nikiforovich Kruglov, a career Sc
cret policeman who has been q
Beria deputy for years. ~
Kruglov is best remembered as a
sort of Kremlin counterpart to
Michael F. Reilly, the White House
secret service man who guarded
Franklin D. Roosevelt at the war
time Big Three meetings. Kruglov
was the chief Red secret service
man at Teheran, Yalta and Pots
dam.
He holds the American Legion
of Merit for his job at Potsdam in
the summer of 1945. Maj. Gen.
Floyd Parks, now Army Chief Of
Information here, pinned the
medal on Kruglov at a review in
Berlin in August, 1945. Gen.
Parks, who worked closely with
the new Soviet police chief from
mid-June to late August that year,
remembers Kruglov, then colo
nel-general in the Soviet secret
police, as an efficient, cordial man
and a lover of American movies.
He is stocky and bull-necked, with
a heavy head Of hair.
On occasion Kruglov has oper-
ated in the Kremlin's traditional
cloak and dagger tradition. Just
before the Potsdam conference, in
the spring Of 1945, he visited the
United States incognito, as a clerk
typist with the Russian delegation
to the United Nations organiza-
tional meeting in San Francisco.
What dark intrigue he may have
concocted is not known to Amer
ican officials who tell the story.

been successful at least to that
extent. And by that time it would
be hard for Rhee to get up a head
of steam for new military drive.
How did the United States per-
suade Rhee to relent? Nobody was
saying. But there were indications
that Mr.. Rhee had been given to
understand that the United States
would withdraw before it re-
Sumed large-scale fighting.
This has always been a card the
United States has held, and pre-
sumably flashed, in the talks with
DR.. Rhee. If the tenacious South
Korean leader now was relentirg,
it was probably because he had
been convinced that the United
States would indeed take this drsS-
tic step rather than give in to him.

move was Self-evident;; so much
so that the Russians and their
German puppets did their best to
keep the U. S. from making hay.
Less than "a hours after Gen.
Eisenhower made his offer, Rus
sian Foreign Minister Molotov and
Red German Premier Grotewohl
turned it down. Their reason rang
a little hollow: 1t boiled down to
an assertion that food is contrary
to East Germans interests.
The White House says the offer
still stands.

THE NATION was treated last
II week to the unexpected sights

NS~SNN~
II week to the unexpected sights
of:
l. President Eisenhower volun-
tarily striking out at Senator Nc
Carthy; and,
2. Mccarthy withdrawing under
fire.
The junior Senator from Wis
consin set himself up for the de-
feat more than q month ago when
he hired a new executive director
for his special investigating sub
committee. The man picked for
the job was j. B. Matthews, a
cherubic-faced gentleman Of SO,
who has been active in the anti
Communist business. since the old
Dies committee.
Mr.. Matthews career as a Red
hunter has been much. admired
and emulated by the Senator. It
was natural they should get to-
gether.
But shortly after Mr.. Matthews
landed the job, American Mercury
magazine published an article he
had written on Reds and Our
Churches" The article opened
with this statement: "The largest
single group supporting the Com
munist apparatus in the United
States today is composed of
Protestant clergymen."
'Focts' and Figures
The article went on to discuss by
name all persons who were iden-
titled as clergymen and char
acterized as supporters of Com
munist-front organizations. Mr..
Matthews said many names Of
clergymen had appeared on Com
munist-sponsored petitions and
appeals. Mr.. Matthews gave spe-
cific numbers of clergymen who
had signed each petition. He did
not say if there were any duplica-
tions among the signers, but totals
given in the article added up to
$3.50 names. Without presenting
further evidence he stated flatly
that, "The Communist Party has
enlisted the support of at least
1000 Protestant clergymen :"
There are at least 10000 Protes-
tant clergymen In the country.
Apparently to duck libel actions,
he Jumped unwilling dupes" with
eyes-wide-open Reds in his COM
pilation. "Unwitting dupes" may
mean anything-or nothing.
The article was widely inter-
preted as being, in all its implica-
tions, an attack on the loyalty Of
Protestant churches. The three
Democratic members of the Nc
Carthy subcommittee, Senators
Mcclellan, Symington and jack
son, demanded Tuesday that Mat
thewS be fired. One Republican,
Senator Potter, said If it came to
a vote in the subcommittee he
also would oppose Mr.. Matthews.
That meant a majority of the sew
en-man group was lined up against
Senator McCarthy's choice.
But Senator Mccarthy refused
to put the question to a vote. He
said Matthews would stay on his
$11 ,600-a-year job. AS chairman
of the subcommittee, the Senator
said, he had sole power to hire and
fire staff members.
The Democrats set out to de-
termine just what a subcommittee
chairman's powers can be under
legislative rules and promised to
bring up the Matthews case again.

Koreu

GRADUALLY AND grudgingly,
~ the President of Korea came
back into line.
It had been a long f1ght-nearly
q month-to convince Syngman
Rhee that peace with the Commu-
nists without unity would not be
(aS he had said) death warrant"
for South Korea. It had taken
cajolery, concessions - and un--
doubtedly some genteel threats-to
convince him that the United
Nations way was feasible.
At last, as the week ended, Syng-
man Rhee was ready to go along,
at least for the present, with plan
to end the bloody Korean fighting
that already has lasted lib days.
Walter Robertson, President Ell
senhower's special envoy to Seoul,
took off for Tokyo early this morn
ing, Korean time. His job, he in
dicated, was done.
Up to Ponmuniom
Now it was up to United Nations
and Red peace conferees once
more. After two years and two
days of wrangling over ceaSe-fire
terms, United Nations officials
were daring to hope that a signing
might be in the off1ng. Best guesses
were that the details attendant
to the armistice could not be COM
pleted before late this week, so
that actual pen-to-paper cere-
monies would not come of before
then.
As In the rest OF the world, Ko-
rean events gained momentum as
the week wore on. Wednesday the
Communists took the United Ma
tions up on its proposal to go ahead
and sign o truce whether or not
Syngman Rhee approves. SubSe-
quent sessions at Panmunjon set
about making the arrangements.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Robertson was
getting DR.. Rhee to come around.
Their talks ended yesterday with
the issuance of communique in
dicating there would be an arm
istice, but definitely avoiding men
ton Of Rhee's attitude toward it.
Temporary o. K.
Apparently Mr.. Rhee had given
in to the extent of postponing his
go-it-alone policy for a maximum
of six months. In return he was
getting faster action on a mutual
security treaty than President
Eisenhower promised him a month
ago-pluS other concessions still
unmentioned. The unrevealed part
may include a United States COM
mitment to walk out of the polit-
ical conference if it bogS down
into the usual Red haggling.
This is to be deduced from the
Seoul communique and an inter-
view MIR. Rhee gave out yesterday.
He said he had agreed to post
pone a ROK army pullout from
the United Nations Command until
90 days after the start Of the polit-
ical conference provided In the
truce agreement. That would
mean about six months Of peace
from the date of the armistice
signing, since the political con-
ference must start within 80 days
from the date of the truce.
How the prisoner repatriation
issue had been settled to the sat
isfaction of both the United Ma
tionS and Dr. Rhee was not clear.
Rhee claimed yesterday that his
ban on Poles, CzechS and Indians
in supervising prisoner interroga-
ton and repatriation still stood.
Possibly the United Nations in
tends to conduct all prisoner in
terrogations in North Korea.
Presumably the United States
was gambling that in six months
almost anything could happen.
