ernment approved the idea and
suggested that the first item to
be considered by the commission
might well be operations at Diem
Bien Phu. ... .
The Government would CO.
operate closely with the commits
sion in the way of supplying it
with most secret information.
The only condition was that no
Communists should be included.
When the commission felt it
was sufficiently informed it
could set the date for public dis
cussion and the government
would be at the disposal of the
assembly stop. For the moment
it was obliged to reject the re-
quest for debate.
Difficult Parleys Cited.
France said the Premier was
engaged in difficult negotiations
on both military and diplomatic
levels. Anything the government
could tell the assembly today
would only serve the enemy.
Under the circumstances it
may have been the best MIR.
Laniel could do. But it was
clearly not good enough. One
by one, members of the oppo-
sition mounted rostrum to tear
his proposal to pieces.
Much of what was said was
familiar enough. From the left
came the standard cry for an
immediate ceasefire in Indo-
China as the only way of avoid
ing more Diem Bien Phus.
coupled with the taunt that
if France had only followed
sound advice and negotiated at
the beginning, this mess would
never have developed. From the
right came the charge of double
dealing: Mr.. Bidault was talk
ing peace at Geneva and plotting
internationalization of the Indo-
Chinese war with the Americans.
Everyone saw the Premier's pro-
poSal as no more than a stall to
avoid blame for bungling and
incompetence in high places. AS
they finished the speakers drew
applause from their own groups
and few others.
The speech by Francois Nit
terrand. however, was different.
Mr.. Mitterrand is the leader of
a splinter group of the radical
(if moderately party formerly
headed by Defense Minister
Pleven-an arresting looking
man with quite an oratorical
flair. And like the others he
was against both Premier Lam
ell and his proposal.
It amounted, he said, to an
evasion which didn't answer the
demands of the country. 1T is
the Assembly and only the AS
Sembly which should open de-
bate to define the conditions

the war and fill gaps in the ex-
peditionary force.
And where would France find
the soldiers? One could not seri-
ously believe that the Co-ordi-
mating Commission could answer
these questions. And if the gov
ernment proposed to internation-
alize conflict, who could make
such a serious decision except
the Assembly? Even the various
suggested political solutions
partition of Indo-China or a
coalition government-could only
be submitted to the Assembly.
IF the government seems to
run from debate, perhaps it is
because it is not sure of its own
policy" Mr.. Mitterrand. "There
are surely enough convinced pa
triots in the Assembly to define
a policy either for war or peace.
The news of the drama at Dien
Bien Phu has caused a surge of
unanimity throughout the coun-
try. The Assembly must reply
by assuming plainly its own re-
sponsibility. Today the Assembly
and not the government must
decide"
Question Left Unanswered.
Purposely, perhaps, Mr.. Nit
terrand left plenty of important
questions dangling. It was quite
unclear just how the assembly
proposed to seize it's RESPONSE
bility and. make the awful deci-
sions if the assembly itself were
dissolved. One might wonder
also how any French government
could hope to pursue a vigorous
diplomatic and military policy If
patriots in Paris seize every mo-
ment Of crisis as an excuse to
disown it.
Questions like these, however,
seemed to matter very little yes
terday afternoon. When Mr..
Mitterrand sat down virtually
the whole assembly was ap-
plauding him except for a small
knot around Mr.. Laniel. In
contrast the premier's last-ditch
appeal produced no response
other than half-hearted support
of his closest associates and
hootS from his opponents.

sive retaliation against any ag-
greSSor.
The President replied that he
was not going to take up each
idea Of foreign policy and dis
cuss it. He added, however. that
something Of the kind Of policy
that massive retaliation repre-
sents is implicit in everything
we've done for some time and
the phrase is greatly overworked.
At his own news conference
yesterday Mr.. Dulles said that
even If the Reds take all Of Indo-
China. the free world through
united action still could Sc
cure the rest of Southeast Asia
from communiSm-and certainly
should try.
Senator's Debate Prospects.
Anxious Senators debated the
outlook. Senator Knowland'
urged Democrats and Republi-
cans alike to cooperate on for
eign policy matters because the
Nation perhaps never before has
faced "a greater menace than
now confronts U.S."
Senator StenniS, Democrat, of
Mississippi, said he is willing for
the United States to make cer-
tain commitments. provided the
peoples of Southeast Asia are
willing to form their own armies
to fight the Reds, and really
want the United States to inter-
vene.
Senator Stennis said that in
the present situation the first
thing this country should do is
find out whether the peoples of
Southeast Asia are ready to re-
siSt Communist expansion and
whether they want this country
to intervene.
He said If there is strong evi-
dence that those basic conditions
exist he is willing for the United
States to make certain COM
mitments. But he continued:
Instead Of consuming time
trying to work out a plan of
united action between the West
ern powers and the nations of
Southeast Asia, we should quick
ly determine what countries of
Southeast Asia are willing to
start at once training a hard
core army of their own citizens
to carry out whatever plan may
be agreed upon."
Bricner Expresses Concern.
Senator Bricker, Republican,
Of Ohio expressed concern over
what he described as suggestions
by Mr.. Dulles Ito the effect that
the power to declare war has
been transferred from Congress
because of the Atlantic agree
rnent and the organization of
the American States"
Senator Knowland replied that
he did not believe the Secretary
of State had ever indicated that
the power under the ConStitu-
ton to declare war had been
transferred from Congress to any
other agency, either Federal or
international. Senator Knowl-
and thought the statements of
Mr.. Dulles were directed more
toward the action which might
have to be taken If American
troops legitimately stationed
overseas under existing treaties
were suddenly attacked.
Senator Bricker insisted that
this question ought to be an

E4SHINCTON LETTER
A Thorn In The Side Of The Reds
E4SHINGTON LETTER

WASHINGTON r Today, five
years after he was sentenced TO
life Imprisonment, Cardinal
MindSzenty is a greater thorn in
The side OF communism than he
ever was while free.
II j. true that the Cardinal,
held incommunicado by the Red
masters OF his native Hungary,
cannot speak out as he once old.
But others are speaking for him,
ProteStantS and Jews as we'll as
Catholics. and many OF them in
high places. The Cardinals mes
sage against oppression and per-
Secution is getting a wider audi
ence than he was ever able TO
give it.
on the fifth anniversary OF his
sentencing by the communists,
Cardinal Mindszenty's heroiSm in
the face Of religious oppression
was the principal theme on the
floors Of the United States Sen
ate and House of Representa-
tiveS.
The Congressional Record for
that day contained many refer
ences-and tributes-to the inn
prisoned Cardinal Primate of
Hungary. And Representative
Charles ]. kerSten Of Wisconsin
inserted IN the record the text of
an NC.W.C. News Service
roundup on religious perSe-

While it undoubtedly would
have caused an uproar if Cardi-
nal Mindszenty had been put TO
death by the communists, the
demonstrations in his behalf on
the fifth anniversary OF his SEN
fencing show that he is not for
gotten, and never will be.
Representative Frances p. Boil
ton of Ohio observed. Since that
fateful day ton which he was
sentenced TO life Imprisonment
this humble servant Of the
church, this staunch champion
OF human freedom, has carried
on his fight against tyranny and
brute force from his prison in
some unknown corner of Hun
gary. On this day, marking the
fifth year of his life imprlson-
ment. we pay tribute to him for
his courageous defiance of evil
forces and for his championing
supreme ideals"
II is possible that, because of
the great interest shown in Car
dinal Mindszenty's sufferings the
Foreign Affairs committees in
the u. 5. Congress will give some
consideration TO the suppression
of religious freedom and of re-
liglous opportunity of any kind
in Eastern Europe. One Con-
gresham has already urged such
a course of action.

That the country or countries
