Communists Step Up
Peace ToIk; Russio
To Quit Port Arthur

Western Europe took another
significant step toward bringing
West Germany into the anti-Com-
munist alliance last week while the
Communist world played an obbli-
cato of sweet reasonableneSs from
Moscow to Peiping to the United
Nations in New York.
Frances National Assembly ap-
proved in principle the new West
ern European Union which Premier
Pierre Mendes-France and diplomats
from eight other powers reared from
the ruins of the old European De-
fense Community at London early
this month. The vote, which was a
test of confidence for the French
Premier, was 350-113.
The Reds, meanwhile, were in the
throeS of a new peace offensive. In
the United Nations. Soviet Delegate
Andrei Vishinsky softened his coun-
try's stand on world disarmament
In Peiping, the Russians announced
they were pulling out of China's S
Port Arthur. In Moscow, newspapers
were full of talk about peaceful CO.
existence, ard how compatible it is
with Marx-Lenin doctrine.
Nom Communist powers deduced
that the Kremlin was clearing the
decks for another big effort to keep
West Germany from joining the
anti-Red military coalition.

posedly pronounced like a sigh Of
relief.
France gave a clear stamp Of
approval for WEU, but not before
tense week end of political bar
gaining in Paris and not without
some fundamental reservations.
The Popular Republican Party,
whose members invented EDO and
whose members are reputed to be
the group in France most eager for
European unification, decided to
sulk and abstained from voting.
The Socialists had at first in
tended to abstain, too. But they
changed their mind Monday and
agreed to vote for WEU in principle,
thus assuring M. Mendes-France the
large majority he sought.
Two things influenced them to
switch. First. they were afraid the
French Premier might be defeated
if they were to abstain-and they
like M. Mendes- Frances economic
and colonial policies. Second, they
were favorably impressed by his

action raising the minimum wage
of Paris area workers by 2 cents
an hour to 34.2 cents.
But the Socialists had a Signitl-
cant reservation. They want M.
Mendes-France to press for another
round of talks with the Communists
on disarmament and German uni
flcation.
Several influential Socialists made
it very clear that their votes last
Tuesday could not be taken as an
indication they would favor the final
treaty when it comes before the
National Assembly late in Novem-
ber.
1t is this knowledge of the "soft"
Socialist vote that spurred M.
Mendes-France last week to WOO the
Popular Republicans. He let it be
known that he will ask the Western
powers to reconsider his proposal to
set up separate agency to control
not only finished arms but their
production as well. His plan is
similar to the control provisions of
Cne Ola EDC treaty.
Arms Aid Question
M. Mendes- France hopes, too,
that the United States will allow its
arms aid to be distributed through
the proposed agency. Secretary Of
State John Foster Dulles turned
down this aspect Of the Mendes-
France plan in London, but the
French Premier hopes to get him to
reconsider.
This production-control agency is
one of many stumbling blocks still
standing in the way of actual Ger
man participation in WEU. France
and Germany face up to the biggest
of these this week when M. Mendes-
France and Chancellor Konrad
Adenauer get together to discuss the
future of the Saar Basin, rich coal
and steel center on their border.
Since the war this territory has
been tied economically to France,
but has gradually taken over ad-
ministration Of most OF It's own
affairs. The people in the area are

Russian influence on Red China's
industrialization probably will not
be diminished very much by the
abolition of the four joint enter
prises. Some 1900 Soviet technic-
ians are now working there, it is
estimated.
Manchuria, of course, is a rich
prize in which Russia still hopes
to share. 1t has more undeveloped
resources than any other area in the
Far East. To build it up, the Red
Chinese are ruthlessly milking the
agricultural South. They have

try has only one major project-a

four minor projects.

helping the Chinese on 141 prof.
ects, and last week agreed to add

trical equipment plant and big re-
forestation projects.
AS if this new show of peaceful
intentions were not enough for one
week, the Kremlin topped 1t of
Thursday by volunteering the in
formation in the u. NJ Security
Council that the Trieste settlement
was satisfactory from its point Of
view. The unexpected switch caught
Italian Communists off base. News
papers carried Mr.. Vishinsky's sp-
proving remarks alongside highly
critical blasts from Communists and
Left Wing Socialists who sounded
of in the Legislature before they
knew about the new attitude.

Disarmament

In the United Nations the West
tried to cut through the obscurities
of new Soviet disarmament over
ture, but at the week end was on
the verge Of concluding that the
Communists are not yet ready to
work. seriously on a plan that would
reduce ornaments without giving
Moscow big advantages.
Mr.. Vishinsky did make one con-
cession. He agreed to talk about
reducing conventional armaments
before outlawing atomic warfare.
But he still kept most of the
other old jokers: Disarmament in
SpectorS must not be allowed to
roam around at will (thus making
effective control impossible); con-
ventional arms reduction must be
accomplished by percentage cuts
lthus preserving Soviet supremacy;
punishment for disarmament pact
violators would be rneted out by
the Security Council (where the
Soviet Union has the veto).
On the theory that the only hope
for getting a workable disarmament
plan is to keep talking about 1t,

Farm Policy

The rural vote, which helped
President Truman to victory in
1948. is considered by political
leaders to be a crucial factor in
the current campaign.
Income of some farmers has fallen
in the past seasons. Democrats
blame the Republicans and claim
the new G. o. P. flexible farm price
support program will rub salt into
the wounds. Republicans say their
new law will give farmers more
solid long-range program.
But straw votes in the Midwest
show farmers less than enthusiastic
about the G. 0. P. plan.
Last week the President and his
Secretary of Agriculture tried to put
the new program in little better
light.
Secretary Ezra Taft Benson spoke
first. He told an Iowa audience the
administration wanted to substitute
self-help wherever possible for Gov
ernment props and controls.
The President made his explana-
tions in speech at Indianapolis.
He spoke of the 83d Congress- bold,
progressive steps"-15 of them, as
enumerated by Mr.. Eisenhower-and
said:
"Our farmers, and all of us, want
national economy strong in all it's
parts, not dependent on the froth
of imitation or the blood of the
battlefield"

Port Arthur

When China's Premier Chou En-
lai demanded at the Geneva Con-
ference last spring that Asia be
left to the Asians, Western newsmen
embarrassed him by asking If that
applied to the Russians in Port
Arthur as well as to the Americans
on FormoSa, in Japan, in the Philip
pines and in other parts of the Far
East.
Smarting from the sting of that
question, Chou apparently went back
to Peiping and did something about
it. Last Monday Red China and the
Soviet Union announced that RUS
sian troops would leave Port Arthur
by May 81, 1855.
At the same time the two big
Communist countries reafirmed
their friendship, called on Japan
to open extensive trade relations"
with them, announced plans to
build a new railroad that will par
allel the Trans-Siberian line and
called for a new conference on
Korea.
Soviet Russia also said it would
give Red China credits and equip
ment worth 920 million rubles $3.50
million at the official rate of ex-
change.
The Russians are also stepping
out Of four joint Soviet Chinese
operations, an airline, q shipbuild-
ing firm in Dairen, mining oper-
alton in Sinkiang and oil fields and
reflneries. also in Sinkiang.

conclusions from these pronounce
ments:

to rise.

been enhanced

But regardless of the obvious fact
that the dog" bit was no more
than an unhappy choice of words,
the administrations foes latched
onto it for the political hay that

one thing he cannot do is crack

election time. And in its political
context, Mr.. Wilson's remark about
bird dogs and kennel-fed dogs was
clearly WiSecrack.

To the extent that they can con-

Democrats hope to profit from Mr..

If a Saar settlement is drafted
this week it will still require ap-

legislatures. And before the final
debate on the WEU treaties begins
late in November Soviet Russia can
be counted on to make some new
offer on reunifying Germany in the
hope of forestalling ratification.
In spite of all these potential
pitfalls, however, Western Europe
dared hope again last week that the
favorable French vote last week
