Senator Taft's successor as

It Is not easy to acquire that

such q drastic measure as D

It Is true. But We are still at
war with Communist China
over the Korean affair. Until
the armistice has been
changed into a peace treaty.
the state of war between the
participants in the Korean
war continues to exist.
Instead Of acting with de-
termination to which we are
entitled by all international
regulations, the administration
preferred to place the matter
IN the weak hands Of the U. N.
And now eight weeks after the
Reds told US that they had
placed our men In sinking
Chinese jails we are still where
we were at the beginning.
Dag Hammarskjold has re-
turned from Peiping empty
handed insofar as the Afneri-
cans are concerned. He an
nounced proudly that he had
begun negotiations. But he has
never revealed puhlicly--for
very good reasons-what the
Chinese demanded as ransom

sons" are, according to what
has leaked out. that the Amer
ican people would not accept

President Roosevelt pro-
claimed America as the arse

endeavored to create the i'm

Incidentally. the idea is
something of q challenge to
Chou En-lai, the Red Chinese
foreign minister. At Geneva
last spring he scorned the
United Nations and refused to
listen to any proposal whereby
the United Nations machinery
would be employed to settle
the Korean uniflcation prob

diction of the U. N. to solve
what has hitherto been re-
garded by Red China as an
internal problem? If he did,
he would naturally have no
further justification from his
own viewpoint for prolonging
the stalemate in Korea. Efforts
even in recent weeks to per-
suade the Red Chinese to
agree to q United Nations COM

When President Eisenhower
indicated that he would be
glad to have the United Ma
tions Exercise its good ofiices"
30 as TO bring about q cease
hre between the Communist
government and the National
list government in China. there
was opened up o field for dis
cussicn Of a possible solution
of the whole Far Eastern prob
lem. Actually no change in
American policy is In prospect.
On its face the cease-fire
plan could lead TO q. N. juris-
diction and the recognition Of
two separate entities-the Ma
tionalist and the Communist.
This has sometimes been re-
ferred to as the ''two China"
formula. In Britain the idea
Is favored because Of Q belief
that Formosa would then be
accepted as q separate republic
while Red China would come
into the United Nations rs the
original China mentioned in
the United Nations Charter.
Such q scheme would neces-
state an acceptance by Red
China Of the idea uf losing
Formosa, now regarded as an
integral part Of China. The
Nationalists, too. have never
given up hope Of trying to go
back and win the mainland.
All in all. 1t Is. Of course, In
line with precedent for the
President to suggest that good
ofiices" be used by the United
Nations because any situation
that endangers the peace Of
the world Is logically within

PARIS. Jan. 81. - Maurice
Couve de Murville, Frances new
Ambassador to the United
States, lost his briefcase yester-
day, when he left Paris to take
his post In Washington.
The boat train taking him
and his family to the liner Idle

sador said the case contained

among our Chinese allies In
Folmosa but also In congress-
sional quarters In Washington.
A collective military interven-
tion would have to be approved
by the q. N. Security Council
In which the Russians have q
veto. They were absent when
the Council decided to inter-
vene In Korea in 1850. Nobody
has been able to explain log
ically the reason why the
Soviet representative stayed
away. But we can be sure that
as soon as O resolution for
u. N. Intervention in the China
war is put forward, the 67th
Soviet veto win be forthcom-
ing.
Regardless Of how longingly
and wishfuliy our policy max
ers may be looking toward the
U. N. the consensus Of the
realists In the Government Ia
that the battle for Formosa
which began this week is our
own.
The Peiping dictatorship, d.
rectly supported by the uSSR
and favored by the U. N.
members which have recog-
nized it. Is determined to do
away with the remnant Of the
legitimate ment Of
China now holding out on For
mosa. Until Chang Kai-shek
and his army have been de-
stroyed, the Chinese Commu-
nists are not sure Of their
domination Of the mainland.
Our own security in the Pa
cific depends on the support
we are giving to the Nationalist
forces. The short-range policy
is to prevent the conquest Of
Formosa. The long range
policy is to help the National
lists return to the mainland.
The hesitant policies Of the.
administration in the last few
days have caused serious con-
cern that the intimate advisers
Of the Chief Executive may be
urging him to reconsider the
only strong stand this country
has taken toward Red aggres-
sion recently.

Can the Republican Party

desertions or factional con-
tests?
The Presidents budget
spells out In cold figures his
own shift to the left of posi-
tions taken consistently by his
party during the 90 years Of
the New and Fair Deals. That
shift was foreshadowed in his
state-of -the-U Union m ssage
which Democrats met with
complaints that they had been
kidnapped.
They exaggerated, Of course,
and the President has some
way to go before he ranks as
q Fair Dealer. Nevertheless,
his budget now proves that he
has definitely chosen a far
more liberal course than the
Republican platform of 1852
and his own campaign offered
the country.

President Eisenhower's sug-
gestion at his televised news
conference that the United Ma

between Communist and Ma
tionalist China has found only
a few supporters in Congress.
Congressional leaders have
no desire to ignore the U. N.
It may be that at some distant
date, after the lawleSs nations
such as the USSR and Com
munist China have changed
their form of dictatorship, the
U. N. can become influential
In world affairs. But so long
as Moscow and Peiping con-
tinue on q rampage, taking
advantage of the unbelievable
tinidity of the free world. it Is
hard to imagine that the U. N.
viii be able TO do anything
constructive in the latest
blood letting. Its Intervention
to liberate the Americans
jailed by Peiping shows the
U. Ms impotence.
On November 26 last year
the country was stunned by
the announcement that IL
Americans in uniform held by
the Chinese Communists in
violation Of the Korean arni-
stice had been sentenced to
long Jail terms. There was an
uproar with demands that
measures be taken to liberate
the men at once. The admin
istration had means to force
the Reds to do so by threat
ening o blockade Of the China
coast.
According to expert advice
given the National Security
Council q blockade could have
wrecked the Peiping govern
ment. Only a very limited
amount Of commercial and
military supplies reach China
by the Trans-Siberian Rail-
road. The Red Chinese must
have open sea lanes to live. A
few weeks Of blockade would
have forced her to shout

track of respect for signed
agreements.
