has been designed to put the

they do not need to bargain
with NATO powers about any

Let the two sovereign German

Russians alone win have an

acquainted with Mr.. Blancken-
horn, who is one Of West Ger
rnany's most astute and tactful
diplomats.
The Committee for Free
Europe is supported by private
contributions and subscrip-
tions. But its activities are
SO widespread and effective
that it is known to receive
subsidies from the American
Central Intelligence Agency.
It's headquarters are IN
Munich. where it operates
among other activities a
powerful radio transmitter. 1t
has a large staff made up for
the most part of refugees frcm
the captive countries behind
the Iron Curtain. who work in
their native tongues under the
direct supervision of Ameri-
can intelligence specialists.
Before the Bonn government
received full sovereignty.
American intelligence agencies
could operate unhindered in
West Germany. in any way
they saw At. But now that
West Germany is master Of
It's own household, and espe-
cially since Bonn has agreed
to establish full official diplo-
matte relations with the Soviet
Union, 1t is but natural to cx-
pect that one of the first Or
ders of business to come up
between the two nations will
be a polite but firm request
from Moscow that Bonn take
immediate steps TO curb the
anti-Red activities of the
American groups at work in
West Germany.
It is unlikely that Bonn will
take any measures designed to
limit official United States
propaganda activities. such as
the United States Information
Agency Offices and libraries.

have no official status, and
can be considered interlopers
and meddlers. Thus such
groups are certain to be the
targets Of the earliest Bonn
action to placate the Russians.
The Bulganin remarks to
Mr.. Adenauer were not casual.
but very serious. and they were
received by the German Cham
cellor in q similar way. And
Mr.. Adenauer is determined,
within the present context Of
world affairs. to achieve for
his fatherland the unity as q
nation that has been denied
her since the Nazi defeat in
World War II and the onset Of
the cold war. That unity Is
his goal, and although he will
remain loyal to his Western
allies, he will not do anything.
or neglect anything, likely to
damage the chances for sue
cess. Mr.. Adenauer knows Bit
terly that no German unity
is possible, even ultimately.
without the Russian say-so.
Similarly, the Central INTEL
ligence Agency, though sure to
be permitted to continue its
activities within Germany, will
very likely be asked to restrict
some of its work and operate
more closely with the new West
German intelligence services
headed by 1t. Gen. Won Gehlen.
The Won Gehlen organization
has long been operating un-
officially, in close cooperation
with American agencies. It Is
now the official agency for
military and political intelli-
gence of the sovereign West
German regime.
A probable result Of the new
situation in the relations Of
Bonn and the Soviet Union
will be a lessening Of CIA ac-
tivities in Germany and q cut
in CHA personnel there, while
CIA funds will continue to aid
the Won Gehlen organization
and American experts will con-
tinue to keep in close touch
with the overall operation.

Secretary Dulles in his speech
at the United Nations put quo

to say bluntly:
"The record Of this Com

evil one. It fought the United

It's military attention to the

take this area by force, and
began active military assaults
on its approaches. which as

Yet Norway. Sweden and
Denmark cast their ballots In
favor Of seating this same ag-
gressor, thus dampening the
hopes Of the Chinese people
that the Nationalists or some
other group might have the
moral support Of the free
world as q whole In seeking

Moral force is important.

Norway and Sweden and Den

DAVID LAWRENCE

The wishful dream that
there isn't going to be any
war because 1t would be too
awful, has once before been
proclaimed as the basis for
world policy by Harold Mac
MILAN. the British Foreign
Secretary. But now he adds to
It the surprising comment that
Western diplomacy Is entering
q phase In which there viii be
negotiation from equality"
with Soviet Russia instead OF
negotiation from strength"
This II but another way Of
saying that the Western Pow
srs are accepting In q defeatist
mood the status Of things as
they are and that the gains
made through aggression by
the Soviets and the Red Chi
nese are never going to be
challenged. Mr.. Macmillan
adds: 1--WE must rely on moral
power. Material strength.
though essential. cannot do 1t
alone"
But when It Is announced
that material strength Is not
even to be potentially put In
the balance and that no spirit
Of resistance Is to be invoked
to encourage oppressed peoples
to overthrow their rulers. die
tatorships are bound to remain
indefinitely In power.
Today Argentina has over
thrown its dictator. It was the
moral influence of the people
which gave momentum to the
rebel movement, but at the top
were men who were ready to
risk their lives for freedom.
There may be no outward signs
Of revolt today in Soviet Rus
sia or in the countries behind
the Iron Curtain. but the spirit
of resistance is building up
Just the same. When Secretary
Macmillan says the Soviets
and the West are negotiating
from O position of equality"
he throws away a trump card
In the game Of moral force.
For there is no equality Of posi-
ton as between good men and
evil men.

transportation Policy
Changes Facing Fight

Federal regulation designed 10
safeguard all segments of the
transportation industry as well
as small business and the public.
Secretary Weeks, as well as
Secretary of Defense Wilson and
Defense Mobilization Director
Arthur s. Flemming. insisted at
the outset Of the hearings this
week that the report envisions no
radical" changes in policy or
practices. They declared 1t would
not essentially weaken. much less
eliminate. the power Of the ICC
They denied 1t would give trains
any unfair advantage over trucks
or barges.
They said the proposals would
bring regulatory practices up tc
date, assure efficient and equi-
table operations by each form OF
carrier In its own sphere. and
contribute to the national econ
omy and defense.
Hearings Adjourned
Hearings were adjourned In

said, however, that pending bills

promised that all directly inter-

his speech before the United
Nations, talked about the fu-
ture era. too. but he wisely
said, ''It will not be an era Of
placidity and stagnancy. Ia the
sense that the status quo. with
its manifold injustices, is ac-
cepted as permanent" Presi-
dent Eisenhower. in his recent
speech before the American
Bar Association, pointedly said
that I'VE must not think Of
peace as q static condition in
world affairs" and that unless
there is peaceful change. there
is bound to be violent change"
MIR. Dulles carried out this
theme In his Thursday speech
when he warned Soviet Russia
that it would be q mistake to
assume that "the injustice Of q
divided Germany can be per-
petuated without grave risk"
Violence can break out when
the passions Of patriotism burn
fiercely in the breasts Of men
who yearn for freedom. Ma
tionalism is a deep-seated urge.
The moral force Of the world
is usually lined up behind
peoples who strive to gain
their independence or to re-.
gain liberties lost.
Sometimes governments yield
to expediency and forsake the
tenets Of moral force when OPP
pressed people most need their
announcement. Thus it Is
surprising to see the govern
ments Of Norway. Sweden and
Denmark voting this week to
seat Red China In the United
Nations.
Not so long ago the soldiers
Of the Western World helped
to liberate Norway and Den
mark. Not so long ago also
exiled governments Of both
countries were established In
London. They were not In
