to throw moral principles to
the winds and rely wholly on
expedient policies. This means
giving concessions to Soviet
Russia to buy her cooperation
"a position which may make
the regime wonder If the
amaSsed military force will
ever be used against her and
whether the Western govern
ments have not after all sue
cumbed to a peace-at-any-
price doctrine.
Out of precisely such a mis-
calculation by the aggressor
came World War I and also
World War II. But history is
soon forgetting and those who
call attention to it or insist
on morality above expediency
are shouted down as advocates
Of preventive war" or as
"warmongers."
The hypocrisy Of it all can
best be illustrated by the
speeches here and abroad, de-
handing that Red China be
recognized and admitted to
the United Nations because
the Peiping government has
full control of the main terri
tory Of China. It is solemnly
asserted. moreover, that this
action need not mean approval
or disapproval of any form Of
government. Yet the Franco
government has been in full
territorial control of Spain for
many years now, and not a
voice do these same sponsors
of Red China-either in Eu-
rope or at the Banding Asian
African conference or even in
the United States-raise in
behalf of the admission of
Spain into the U. N. Yugo-
slavia, with her dictatorship,
is a member. and so are the
Communist states. but they
come from the cleft" side,
while Spain is on the right"
To confused men in political
life. like Clement Attlee, this

President Eisenhower has
been presented with what
looks like an opportunity to
negotiate the Formosa crisis
and avert war.
The United States simply
did not know its own true
strength in Asia. While this
country concentrated upon
the Formosan pimple on its
nose, its healthy democratic
blood stream had won its own
victories.
The State Department was
almost panic-stricken over the
Afro-Asian conference at
Bandung and tried to forbid
all Americans but the press
to go near it. But history was
made at Banding when Mo-
molu Dukuly. Acting Secretary
of State Of Liberia, overbore
the petulant Nehru of India
and demanded that the small
nations be heard.
Then Americans delightedly
learned that they had new
friends there. Even more sig
niflcant, it was proved beyond
peradventure that the demo-
cratic ideal can still capture
the minds of men of many

Manufacture of baby A-bombs
in quantity for use on tactical
targets has brought about a
$3.50 million reduction in ex-
penditures for conventional am
munition by the Air Force.
This was disclosed today with
the release of secret testimony
before the House Appropriations
Committee.
Representative Scrivner, Re-
publican, of Kansas, recalled
that President Eisenhower stated
that the United States would
use atomic weapons in any future
war. He asked what change
would be brought about by that
decision on the procurement of
standard or conventional bombs.
Economy Sought
Later the department provided
the committee with a formal
statement advising that a con-
slant review was under way sin
order to prevent duplication and
to effect the utmost economy
while still maintaining a dual
capability" of both types of
bombs.
with regard to this years

The Banding conference re-
veals that there are many
theological riffs between the
nations of the Middle East,
Asia, and Africa, but that there
is one thing that unites them
all. That one thing is opposi-
ton to the intervention by any
Western nations in the internal
affairs of the Eastern nations
or in their relations with each
other. Banding is a declaration
of independence on a large
scale. The governments meet
ing there represent, or effec-
lively control, approximately
half of the population of the
globe.
The fact that the Soviets
we're not invited is not without
significance. The Soviet Union
is geographically in both Eu-
rope and Asia. At the time, this
column commented on the fact
that Mr.. Molotov, speaking i'm
mediately after the govern
ment turnover, had assessed
the European population at
600 million, thus counting the
entire Soviet Union, including
Siberia and it's other central
Asiatic provinces as part of
Europe. In Asia, it seems clear,
Peiping. not Moscow, calls the
tune. If the Soviets have de-
cided to play safe in Europe.
this undoubtedly influenced
the decision.

rael reveals a state of mind.
The resolution puts the whole
of Asia and Africa behind the
Arab position, consistently
maintained, that Israel must
retreat to the original U. N.
frontiers, internationalize Je-
rusalem, and receive back the
Arab refugees or compensate
them for their losses. The reso-
luton holds no promise of
ending the cold war of the
Arab states against Israel. It
reveals that Israel is not re-
garded as a native Middle
Eastern state, but rather as a
colonizing project sponsored
and supported by the West.
The delegates have not sup
ported Red China's claim that
the settlement of the Formosa
issue is a purely internal Chi
nese affair. But they also have
not accepted that Formosa is
any concern Of the United
States, but rather that it is an
Asian question to be settled by
Asian nations.
Sir John Kotelawala, Prime
Minister of Ceylon, who vigor-
ously charged that Commul
nists with external support
perpetually interfere in the
domestic affairs of Asian ma
tions. proposed that the For
mosan administration be taken
from the Chang government

lon, Indonesia and Pakistan-
at the end of which a plebiscite
of Formosans should decide its
future government.
Were a United Nations
trusteeship proposed, it is GER
tain the Asian nations would
fight the inclusion of any
Westerners, and none would
support the present govern
ment Of Formosa.
This attitude makes the
prospect of a successful war
over Formosa, that would set
tie the political issues, very
dim for the United States and
the Chinese Nationalist.
Banding exposes certain
fallacies that have become
cliches of American thinking,
such as the picture of the
world divided into two solid
blocs along theological lines.
1t shows that the Afro-Asian
nations are neither united nor
controlled by Moscow, Peiping,
or communism, nor susceptible
to being won over by the
United States.
Except for Red China, they
are obviously guided by the
intention to hold a neutral
balance between the West and
the Communist states, and
play them off against each
other, realizing that they
don't need to join the Reds
to exploit our cold Cor hot)
war against them. In case of
war they would adopt the role
of judges and arbiters, with
out whom neither side could
count on political support any,

It is the Soviet Unions refusal

allies to take conferences
ures, such as the establish

Treaty Organization, with its

have suggested such q military
alliance in 1916 when the So
Wet Union was still a trusted
ally. 1t was only when Moscow
began to 60 it alone and to
generate friction throughout
the occupied zones and espe-
cially in Berlin that the free
world woke up to the fact
that the rulers of the slave
world had hostile designs on
the Western countries.
Having taken protective
measures, the Western Allies
today are moving in diplomacy

Soviet Russia has been check
