and Brussels Of the North At
lantic Treaty Organization
council.
At the State Department, the
Byroade-Allen shift was re-
garded as complimentary to both
men. Both, are credited with
far-reaching accomplishments.
A West Point graduate. Mr..
Byroade commanded Army sup
ply services in Eastern India
during World War II, was re-
sponsible for airbase construc-
ton in China and. in the United
States with the Army general
staff, co-ordinated policy affect
ing operations in India, China
and Southeast Asia. He held
the rank Of brigadier general.
Mr.. Byroade went from the
Defense Department. on loan to
the State Department in March,
1949, as deputy director of the
Bureau of German Affairs. He
became director eight months
later. He was appointed AS
sistant Secretary of State in
April, 1852.
Major Disputes Settled.
Since then. both the Egyptian
dispute with the United King
dom over the Suez Canal, and
the Iranian dispute with the
Anglo -Iranian Oil Co. have been
settled.
There also has been an ex-
pansion in American programs
in the area, particularly in the
economic field. It seems certain
that his appointment will prove
popular in Egypt.
His replacement, Mr.. Allen, is
one of the most respected and
popular men in the Foreign Serv-
ice. He began his foreign service
career in 1881 as a consul at
Kingston, Jamaica. He filled va
rious assignments in the Far
East and Near East before re-
turning to the State Department
In 1888.
His work won quick recogni-
ton. In 1945 he was appointed
Ambassador to Iran. In 1948 he
was chosen Assistant Secretary
Of State for Public Affairs.
A year later, shortly after
Yugoslavia detected from the
Soviet Russian orbit, Mr.. Allen
was named Ambassador to Bel
Grade. He was appointed AM
bassador to India and Nepal in
March, 1858.

Senator Cooper Mentioned
As Ambassador to India !
By John Y. Homer

The name Of John Sherman
Cooper. liberal Republican SEN
ator from Kentucky, is figuring
prominently in speculation over
the appointment Of a new AM
bassador to India and Nepal.
The genial and highly regarded
Senator lame duck since the
November 2 election-heads a
list Of those being mentioned for
the important post soon to be
vacated by Ambassador George
v. Allen.
President Eisenhower an
nounced Friday In Augusta that
Mr.. Allen is his choice for AS
sistant Secretary Of State for
Near Eastern. South Asian and
African Affairs.
That means the Ambassador
will succeed Henry A. Byroade,
41-year-old Indianan, whom
President Eisenhower appointed
Ambassador to Egypt. At Cairo
Mr.. Byroade will succeed Jeffer-
son Caffery, who Is retiring after
43 years in the foreign service.
Defeated by Barkley.
Senator Cooper, one of only a
few Republican candidates for
whom President Eisenhower
made personal appearances in
the recent campaign, was de-
feated for reelection by a pow
erful vote-getter, former Vice
President Alben w. Barkley. AS
a result he is leaving the Senate
at the end of this year.
e Mr.. Cooper's name entered
the ambassadorship speculation
as soon as President Eisenhower
announced the diplomatic
changes. Among others suggest
ed for the New Delhi post are
Gov. John Lodge, Republican, Of
Connecticut, who was defeated
for reelection this month; DEM
ocrat Chester A. Bowles, a for
'mer Ambassador to India, and
Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt.
Friends of Senator Cooper say
privately that he is uninterested
in an ordinary political appoint
ment but is available for some
thing as worthwhile as the am
bassadorship.
Currently the 53-year-old Ken
tuckian is member of the Sen
ate Armed Services Committee,
the Interstate and Foreign Com
merce Committee and the Post
Office and Civil Service Com
mittee.
He has evinced interest in
foreign affairs over period of
years. During World War II he
enlisted in the Army, was pro-
NOTED to q corporal and then
commissioned an officer. AS
signed to the Third Army, he
participated in the Normandy
and Luxembourg campaigns and
was awarded the Bronze Star.
After the war he was engaged
in the reorganization Of German
judicial system. He was dis
charged with rank Of captain.
was 0. N. Delegate.
In 1949 Mr.. Cooper served as
United States delegate to the
fourth session of the United Ma
tions General Assembly. He
was alternate delegate at q. N.
sessions in the two succeeding
years. In 1850 he was an ad-
wiser to Secretary Of state Dean
Acheson at meetings In London

Of more than 600 miles an hour,
and yet has geared the delivery
of that self-same firepower to
a supply system that moves at a
snail-like pace.
The services logistics system
is built around minimum stock

nevertheless, And the amount
OF supplies necessary for the

Department officials refused to

the project is top secret. Doug

the plane-the C-132-and prod

One reason for so much secrecy
on the subject is fear that es-
