tperhaps slightly immodesD is
that he has been outmaneuvered,
outfaced and pinned down to
the extent of presenting his case
in most unreasonable terms. His
utter disregard for German pub
lie opinion, his attacks on parlia-
mentary procedure, his heavy
handed and transparent propa-
ganda sallies-all have made the
Western task comparatively easy.
In short. the feeling in the
Western camp is that the allies
have at least reached their min
imum detectives in coming to
Berlin. Judged in terms of what
1t proposed to accomplish the
conference seems headed for
total failure. But what has
happened here cannot fail to
have profound effect on West

litical events of the next few

Britain Held Ready
To Extend Friendship
Treaty With Russia


BERLIN. Feb. 6.-The British
tonight were reported ready to
make their friendship treaty
with Russia run as long as the
50-year European Defense Com
munity (EDC) project.
Informed sources disclosed
this a few hours after Foreign
Secretary Anthony Eden told
Russia's vyacheslav M. .Molotov
at the Big Four Conference:
1--WE should, I am sure. be
ready to prolong 1t (the British
Soviet treaty. If Mr.. Molotov
feels that this would give added
security to the Soviet Union"
However, Mr.. Eden himself.
did not give any indication of
how long the pact might be ex-
tended.
The alliance, which has run
nearly IL of its scheduled 20-year
span. was signed in Moscow
between Mr.. Eden and Mr..
Molotov. Its main provision
binds each country to go to the
aid of the other if it should
become again the victim of
German aggression.
Repeats Assurance.
Mr.. Eden three times this year
assured the Soviet Union pub
licly that Britain still abides by
the terms Of the alliance. The
pact forbids either side to join
in any aggressive military coali-
ton directed against the other.
Russia accused Britain of vio-
lating that provision after the
North Atlantic Treaty Organiza-
ton was formed in 1949. But the
British maintained NATO was
purely a defensive organization.
In blowing new life into their
alliance with Russia, diplomatic
sources said. the British hope to:
l. Allay Soviet fears that
rearmed Germany-even though
harnessed to EDC-Will try to
dominate Europe again.
2. Notify any German extrem-
lists that two of Europe's strong
est nations will be ranged against
them if they should ever break
bounds again.
Fear New Threat.
The Russians have told the
West repeatedly they believe
vengeful Germans might try to
lead their country out of the
EDO and theaten world peace.
Mr.. Molotov has told the Big
Four they should unite in keep
ing Germany disarmed indef-
initely.
Mr.. Eden. Secretary Dulles
and French Foreign Minister BIZ
dault have argued back that to
keep the Germans suppressed
would create the very danger of
German aggression that all were
trying to avoid.
EDO would combine the forces

land, Belgium. Italy and Luxem-

the President, a former five-star
general himself. was convinced
his old service could greatly i'm
prove its utilization of man.
power.
The Army-like the Air Force
did last year-must put its house
in order from the standpoint of
better manpoWer utilization" the
official commented. Il don't be-
lieve it will be necessary to drop

frightened up"
At last report the Army
had l,489.340 officers and en-
listed personnel. The Eisenhower
budget provides for a reduction
to l,l67,000 by June 80, 1855.

the Federal Juvenile Delinquency
Act with a view to having juve-

Leading Legislator
OfOur Time

The Republican National
Committee meeting for the
first time since the death
of Senator Robert A. Taft
Of Ohio, adopted a resolu-
ton yesterday declaring
that Mr.. Taft "symbolized
in life and in deed the great
principles of the Republican
Party" causing him to be
universally recognized as
Mr.. Republican"
The resolution described
Mr.. Taft as the outstand-
ing legislator of our time"
AS a token of the National
Committees appreciation of
Senator Taft's great serv-
ices. it placed the expression
of regret for his death in
the permanent records of
the committee. A copy was

Already-and perhaps very

w. Prentiss declined to discuss
any conclusions the Commits
sioners reached, but said the re-
view was essential to find where
we should go in the event there
has to be substitutions."
In addition to criticism of spe-
cif1c tax increases proposed,
meanwhile. subcommittee mem
bers have questioned sharply
whether the proposed $4.5 mil
lion increase is sufficient.
Subcommittee Chairman
O,Hara told a reporter yesterday
he felt the proposals were COM
pletely inadequate"
Presumably. the main thing
worrying the subcommittee is a
projection of estimated revenues
and expenses which indicates
deficits in the general fund
starting in about 1857.
Projections Are Speculation.
District officials have stressed
that the proposed tax boosts
under study, however. are not
intended to solve all the Dis
trict's fiscal problems. but relate
only to the Districts share of
increased revenues for the works
program. They emphasize also
that projections far into the flu
ture amount pretty much to
speculation. Since the District
much present a balanced budget
each year. they argue. the time
to consider revenue boosts is
when deficits appear imminent
or are forced by such beneficial
legislation" as pay raises. For the
next two years. at least, they
estimate the general fund will
be IN balance.
The gloomy forecasts Of de-
ficits, officials noted, are hardly
affected by the works program.
but result from other causes.
They estimate that the increased
revenues they propose would pay
for all but $40 million worth Of
the works projects-a small part
of programs $305 million cost.
Mr.. O'Hara, however, said he
wanted to go further into the
entire fiscal picture, and "inveS-
tigate every avenue of taxation"
The Minnesota Republican
said he hoped to wind up the
closed door sessions quickly. and
agreed upon a single revenue
plan which the Joint subcommit-
tee could report to both the
House and Senate District Com
mitteeS.
To Renew Citizen Plan.
At District Building meeting
tomorrow, meanwhile, the Com
missioners also are expected to
review an alternate $45 million
tax-increase proposal under
study by eight citizens organiza-
tons.
The seven-point alternate
program was drafted Thursday
by representatives Of the Fed
Grafton of Citizens Associations
and of labor and veterans
groups. 1t was placed before
representatives of eight organi-
cations at Friday meeting. held

The representatives. without

proposals. agreed to submit them

grafton. They are scheduled to
ceport back Tuesday.
The Federation last night took
up the question but postponed
action on any substitute tax
plan until its next meeting.
