FOREST HILLS, N. Y, Sept.
Tony Trabert is at his best
playing trim-180 pounds. He
has no more blister troubles and
is just riled enough to win his
second straight national tennis
championship.

swer my critics is to go out and
show them up wrong" the "a
year-old Cincinnati power hitter
said today That's why I want
to win this tournament so much
I can taste it."
Trabert was scheduled to play
Lorne Main, Canadian Davis
Cup ace. in a featured third
round match Yesterday at the
West Side Tennis Club, but the
program was washed out by rain
and gale-like winds from the
whip end of the Atlantic hurri-
cane. The match has been re-
scheduled Tor today.
"I've been taking a pretty
good going over from almost
everybody" Tony added. Il
think the criticism is unfair and
unjustified.

ferently this year than / did Q

I'm the CHAMPION. It's easy to
take pot-shots at the champion. -
Trabert was criticized in Aus
tralfa for losing a match to the
veteran John Bromwich in the
Australian championships. After
he lost to Australia's Ken Rose
wall in the semifinals at Wimble-
don with blistered, bleeding
hands, Tony was pictured as a
cry-baby and an alibi-artist.
Even recently Tony's good
friend and adviser, Davis Cup
Capt. Bill Talbert, wrote in a
magazine piece that blistered
hands weren't the extent of Ira
bert's troubles. Talbert said
Tony would have to change his
mental outlook If he was to
measure up to the great cham
pion's role predicted for him.
Gee, all, these knocks COM

added. Certainly. ! haven't had

4. The French government,
snoring UP its defenses in Indo-
China after the Communist VIC
tory over Dien Bien Phu, is ar
ranging to gain a little time by
regrouping available forces and
possibly rushing some French re-
placements.
But French officials have
frankly told the American gov
ernment that if Geneva fails to
produce a truce the United States
will have to send in forces to
help out or eIse the French will
not be able to carry on the war.
Opinion here is divided over
what the Chinese and Russian
Communists will finally do at
Geneva and also over how firmly
the French will resist Red efforts
to obtain an armistice which
would be dangerously close to a
French surrender. Some off,
cials believe the Communists are
so fearful that the war will be
greatly enlarged if it goes on
as Secretary of State Dulles has
seemed to threaten-that they
will make a reasonable deal.
Others think they will insist on
terms highly favorable to them
selves and that the French in the
long run may give in.
Must Decide Soon.
Despite all this, an American
decision on intervention will have
to be made in the fairly near
future. So far as the record
stands, the Eisenhower adminis-
tration has not yet made any
definite decisions other than that
the defense of Southeast Asia is
vital to free world security and
ought to be undertaken by q
coalition of free nations.
Within the administration
there appear to be two main
divisions of opinion, illustrated
by public statements in the past
few days.
In a speech in New York
Thursday. Admiral Robert B.
Carney. chief of naval opera
tions, said the Indo-C China war
presents the free world with
"graver" choices than it faced in
Korea, and he said the general
danger from Communism is "in-
creaSing swiftly"
Two days before, Secretary of
the Treasury Humphrey, consid-
cred by political experts to be a
power in the administration, an
nounced the Government would
stick to its program of econo-
mizing on expenditures-includ-
ing defense costs.
Another issue is the extent and
nature of American intervention
If that should be decided upon.

Arthur L. Radford, chairman of
the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has
been telling congressional and
civilian leaders that an effective

the offending issue. Notes of re-
porters were confiscated together
with personal files of the man
aging editor. At the same time
the Defense Ministry issued
order for the arrest of unknown
person who leaked information.
The charge: Revealing secrets
vital to national defense. So far
there have been, no arrests.
Needless to say management of
L'Express has been far from dis
mayed by this turn of events.
The new edition which appeared
today sold like hotcakes even
though the Ely report was re-
placed by a general press review
and the original headline was
defaced. The political article
boosting Mr.. Faure, incidentally,
was still intact.
Seen as Desperate Art.
In view of the outcry that has
been raised, there are many who
consider suppression of the ar
ticle as a dangerous and even
desperate act for the government
to have made. In a country
where the press Yields tremen-
dous political power it was GER
tainly not a move calculated to
increase the popularity of the
Laniel regime among ruling cir
cles.
On the other hand there are
signs that the present French
government has finally become
aware of the dangers that con-
front the country, even greater
than the danger Of its own
demise. Actions of the past week
seem to show a willingness to
take a politically unpopular
course and play rough when
