talks without Nationalist par
ticipation. What the theme
song of these direct conversa-
lions may be is anybody's
guess. But it is expected that
they will dwell on the recog-
milton of the Peiping regime,
its place in the United Nations,
and a relaxation if not a COM
plete termination of the pres
ent stringent embargo on
strategic materials needed
desperately by the Peiping
regime,
Since Tuesday. April 26.
when the administration re-
versed it's stand not to talk to
the Communists without the
presence of the most interested
party, the Chinese National
lists. an avalanche of pressing
cables has been received from
our representatives abroad in
dicating the urgent desire OF
our allies that We do not delay
the proposed talks. There is
no longer any question OF
whether we would help the
Nationalist repel a Red ag-
erosion on the offshore islands.
Apparently our allies and as
sociates have been assured that
President Eisenhower's decision
on this matter will be on the
diplomatic and not the mill
tary level. That is to say that
he will not consider whether
such an aggression imperilS
the security of Formosa, but
whether it would be expedient
from the diplomatic point of
view to help the Nationalist.
And the answer from Wash
ington is that it would be fool
ish and inexpedient to cross
our allies.
Thus a cease-fire in the real
meaning of the word is
purely academic question
which does not interest Mi.
Chou. He has announced
loudly that he will Hibernate"
the naming Nationalist
strongholds and will start this
year with the liberation" of
the Matsus and Quemoy. If
he can do this-as it now
appears likely-without any
losses to himself by diplomatic
means, so much better. If it
were necessary to suffer heavy
casualties in a direct conflict
with the Nationalist defenders,
it won't matter much. Life is
the cheapest commodity in
Communist countries and a
little bloodletting is incense
quential. He is hunting a much
bigger game. America has an
nounced emphatically that it
will not reward aggression; it
will not allow an aggressor to
shoot it's way into the United
Nations and will not recognize
the Peiping regime.
The most likely result of
direct negotiations demanded
first by Senator George. DEM
ocrat, of Georgia and now in
dorsed by the administration,
will be that we shall have to

got quickly down to business.
He brought on a doctor close

right answers established its
true enormity. Our narcotics
problem is vastly more serious
than that of other countries,
the doctor said, because it is
treated here as a criminal rather
than a medical matter. This
means there are enormous profits
in it for the degraded criminals
who create addicts to sell their
wares.
Mr.. Allen had some strong
words about narcotics pushers.
They were not new ones. but
they can always bear repeating.
Then he turned to a pair OF
young men whose addiction had
been arrested through the help
of Narcotics Anonymous. Their
identity-hiding hoods and cloaks
added a dramatic touch as the

point that there. but for the

Mr.. Allen Brings off
Drug Documentary
BY HARRY MACARTHUR

a documentary cum dramatic
license based on the experiences
Of Lydia and Oleg zabrodsky,
now safely out of Communist
dominated Czechoslovakia after
hair-raising time of it.
It was. let it be said quickly
here. a thoroughly exciting
television show, a melodrama
charged with sinister evil and
suspense. It opened with Oleg
already out of the country and
Lydia. the girl he had to leave
behind, in, the clutches of the
authorities, forced to make noises
like a Communist until escape
could be arranged. Considerable
apprehension over her fate was
aroused before Radio Free Eu-
rope and an American willing to
marry her into freedom. got her
out of the country.

A great deal of the dramas
success must be credited to
Maria Riva and ROBERT Sterling.
who played Lydia and her Amer
lean savior. Theirs must have
been considerably more than the
normally hectic preparation for
an hour-long TV drama.
Louis Jourdan and Raimonda
Orselli originally were announced
for the roles by CHS. Then, in
the middle of last week, Anne
Jeffreys revealed to this corner
that her husband (Mr. Sterling)
had been hastily summoned to
take over for Mr.. Jourdan. That
was all that was heard from
Passage at Arms" until Monday
night when it came up on the
screen. Somewhere along the
line, and obviously without too
much rehearsal time. Miss Riva
had replaced Miss Orselli.
Miss Riva and Mr.. Sterling
may shudder with fright when
they think back to this one, but
they can remember it with sat-
isfaction. 1t came into the liv-
ing rooms as a smoothly exe-
cuted drama.
