DAVID LAWRENCE

It's curious what difference
just a few weeks make in world
affairs. The point of view Of
some of those folks who in
July were hailing the Geneva
Conference as inaugurating a
period Of almost Utopian peace
is now. in September, one of
apprehension and caution.
Articles Of warning are be-
ing published in the press, and
some members Of Congress are
saying that perhaps Geneva
didn't bring peace and what q
terrible mistake it would be
to cut the defense budget as
Secretary of Defense Charles
e. Wilson has proposed doing.
1t is being urged that America
should be careful not to be
lulled into q sense Of false
security and that cutting the
arms budget Is premature and
dangerous.
But logically, If all the
optimistic stat ments and
com m ents made after the
Geneva Conference meant any,
thing. they meant that a cur
tailment Of arms expenses was
inevitable. For of what avail
are weapons that grow obsolete
and are never used?
Not only in America but in
Britain and France such ques-
tons are being asked. and the
Western world is face to face
with the effect of the risks
taken when the top leaders
began fraternizing with the
Soviet chieftains in Switzer-
land less than two months ago.
Even the politicians inside
this country are beginning to
grow puzzled as to how to
handle the Geneva issue. Gov.
Hartman Of New York, Dem
ocrat, who used to be Ameri-
can Ambassador to Moscow
and feels he has a right to

the Communists which wasn't
taken too seriously at the time.

tial nomination. former Gov.

Stevenson, had come out In
favor of compromise and bar
gaining. Some Democratic
orators even went so far as to
contend that. but for their
prodding. President E:sen-
hover wouldn't have gone to
Geneva. They were prepared
to take the credit if Geneva
came out all right but equally
eager to impose the blame on
the Republicans if the after
math became somewhat UNI
favorable.
The Secretary of State, John
Foster Dulles-who isn't sup
posed to be a politician, yet
who is by all odds the most
far-seeing and astute of the
present-day professionals in
diplomacy-was criticized by
some of the appeasers because
he didn't exude the same kind
Of enthusiasm about Geneva
that some of the wishful
thinkers did.
When Mr.. Eisenhower
shortly afterward used some
strong words in his speech to
the American Bar Association
indicating that he, too, was
beginning to be somewhat
skeptical about possible re-
suits. there came at once a
criticism from the appeasers
that he was weakening the ef-
feet Of the Geneva Conference.
Soviet newspapers, always ca
ger to print anything that
drives a wedge between the
President and his advisers and
to give the impression of
wavering and fluctuation in
American policy. reproduced
the criticisms and. without
comment Of their own, let
American critics tell the story
to the Soviet people. That's
a favorite device, and the
moral is not to ask the critics
to refrain from criticism Just
because the Soviet press picks
1t up but to ask them to make
sure first whether the Soviet
phrases at Geneva had any
meaning worth exalting as
genuinely peaceful in intent.

One factor Is. Of course, the

Of an intercontinental war

from the logic of those

Another is the unpredict-

Another is a growing dis
