Indian Premier Is Unbending Enemy
OfForce, but viii He Use 1t on Tiny Goa?
CONSTANTINE BROWN

Will India celebrate August
Is, her independence day, in
a spectacular manner by using
force to expel Portugal from
Goa, its small possession on
the Indian subcontinent? And
will Great Britain permit its
Portuguese ally to be showed
around by the sanctimonius
Indian Premier Nehru, who
covers his face at the mere
mention Of the word force"
without attempting to medi-
ate? India is a free country
but it still is a part Of the
Commonwealth: Mr.. Nehru at
tends all the London confer
ences of the Commonwealth
Nprime ministers. Thus the
Portuguese, whose alliance
with Great Britain dates back
to the end of the 14th CEN
fury, expect that the great
power to which they have been
continuously faithful for more
than 400. years may say a
word to avoid bloodshed in
their Goa colony. which they
are now determined to defend
arms in hand.
Portuguese diplomats point
out justly that Britain has
been successful in holding back
the United States in the Ko-
rean war. when we wanted to
smash up the Reds by bomb
ing their military establish
ments across the Yalu River.
The purpose Of that war was
to prevent the enslavement of
the Korean peoples and to
punish the unwarranted ag-
erosion in the name Of the
great peace organization, the
United Nations. which had
given us that mandate. The
British diplomatic action in
Washington induced us to give
up a certain victory and bring
about a -shaky peace which
even today threatens the free
dom of almost rs million peo-
pie. Will the British govern
ment now use their good and
powerful Offices in New Delhi

siast" Nehru from taking a
strong military action. similar
in many ways to that Of the
liberation actions" Of Mos
COW and Peiping, against the
Portuguese? Or will they and
the rest of the great powers
shut their eyes because Portu-
gal is a small country loyal to
the Western allies while India
is a big country friendly to the
Communist regimes in Mos
COW and Peiping? Will Mr..
Nehru respond to the spirit
of Geneva in regard to Goa
in the same way he wants us
to respond in connection with
our Chinese Nationalist and
Korean allies?
Outside the fact that the
Portuguese possession happens
to be on the India subconti-
nent, the Indian claims are
very shaky. Portugal captured
that enclave in 1910. not from
the Indians but from the Mos
lem Shah king Yusuf Adj.
1t had never been Indian
ruled.
For nearly $50 years the
tiny colony was ruled by a
representative of the govern
ment in Lisbon, as it still is.
This rule is in many ways more
beneficial to the people of Goa
than to the hundreds of mil
lions who live under Mr..
Nehru's administration. At no
time did the Portuguese at
tempt to expand their hold to
the .neighboring areas. And
they do not see now any rea-
son why they should give up,
under duress, their possession.
Prime Minister Nehru is the
apostle of peace and justice for
all the world, provided he can
do whatever he wants in India.
He flouted the United Nations
in the Kashmir dispute and
got away with it because that
organization did not see fit to

would look for leadership and
for a candidate If the Presi-

the $64 question which the
Democratic Party has to an
swer soon. Will former Gov.
Stevenson of Illinois or Gov.
Hartman of New York be-
come the Democratic presiden-
tial candidate in 1856?
There are some handicaps
which each faces from a
strictly political viewpoint.
Politicians say that a divorced
man alienates large groups of
Catholic voters-and the for
mer Mrs. Stevenson isn't max
ing things any easier for her
ex-husband by giving inter-
views about him. Many of the
big-city organizations of Demo-
Gratis, who can be influential
in controlling State delega-
tons at a national convention,
are well aware of the political
implications of divorce. 1t is
supposed to have beaten

Nor is Gov. Hartman i'm

once. He is, moreover, multi
millionaire with large holdings
in the Union Pacific Railroad
which he inherited from his
father, the late E. H. Harri-
man. Maybe the campaign
will introduce the chant that
What's good for Union Pacific
is good for the country" and
SO on.
But the New York Governor
prides himself on being more
liberal" or radical than Adlai
Stevenson on domestic mat
tiers. Despite Gov. Harriman's
previous associations with

stands well with the railroad

THOMAS L. STOKES

CHICAGO. - How heavily
the Republican Party relies
on President Eisenhower, and
him alone, to pull it through
the 1856 election is impressed
on anyone who gets a sound
ing from Republican State
Governors here for the annual
Governors conference.
1t stands out in all they say
about 1856 and the party's
prospects, which adds up to
an urgent and almost plaintive
appeal that the President just
must seek another term. 1t
Is. they now insist. his duty"
and they know how he has
always answered the call Of
duty.
What the Governors feel
is particularly important. They
not only are in close touch
with the people and know the
relative standing among them
of Republican and Democratic
Parties. as such, but they
also are technicians in prac-
tical politics at the grass roots.
They know what it takes to win
elections.
p AS they confess the weak
ness Of the party without the
President, though naturally
not in so many words, and ex-
hibit their utter dependence
upon him by refusing to be-
lieve he might not run, their
attitude becomes a somewhat
disturbing phenomenon.
For it indicates that one of
the two great parties in our
two-party system lacks conf
dence it itself. 1t apparently
does not feel it can offer the
American people a program
that will win on its own, but
must look to one man, who is
in reality an outsider and not
a product of the party. The
party did not produce him
from its ranks.
Typical of the situation was
the cutlery from one Republic
can Governor-Fred Hall, the
progressive young Chief Execu-
tive Of Kansas and a devout
