House Group Ready
To Delegate Powers
For Reserves Recall
BY the Associat ted Press

A House Armed Service Sub
committee appears ready to rec
ommend giving President Eisen-
hover direct authority to recall
perhaps 100000 military re-
servists to active duty, if they
are needed.
The President traditionally
has had authority to call up re-
serves in an emergency, but
Congress took it away in 1852
The subcommittee takes up
the question behind closed doors
today in the last stage of de-
alterations on a bill designed to
expand and strengthen the re-
serves.
Although the subcommittee
did not reach a decision Friday
as leaders had hoped, most OF
it's nine members appear to favor
the purpose of Pentagon pro-
posal authorizing the President
to recall a specified number OF
reservists who have been out Of
active service for less than II
months. They would be calico
up either in units or individually
| in an emergency declared by the
President.
The Pentagon has requested
a million-man ceiling on this
authority. The subcommittee
is likely to cut this to 100000

thus becoming the most pow
erful exhibit in our antl-Com-
munist campaign.
Now the dashing air general
who used to lead the Red air
Squadrons at all the great mill
tary parades in Moscow is be-
lieved to be either a prisoner

likely. is dead with a bullet
hole in his head.
There is in. this country
what may be called a private
and independent intelligence
group composed of tried for
mer counter-intelligence per-
sonnet. Its main job-through
its agents in Europe-is to get
members of the Communist
armed services from behind
the Iron Curtain.
The group is financed by
patriotic American business
and professional men. 1t oper-
lates in places and cases where
the official intelligence agen-
cies cannot afford to take
even calculated risks for fear
of unpleasant international
complications. Not being a
Government organization, the
group can take chances on its
own responsibility. And it has
performed daring feats in the
Scarlet Pimpernel style. In
the few instances where pub
licity has become unavoidable,
it has been disavowed by the
regular intelligence services.
Before Stains death. his
son VASTLY was approached
through means which must re-
main undisclosed and was Of

general had some inkling of
the shape of things to come,
for he listened to the prop
oSition, which in effect was:
That he get into one of the
latest-type Soviet planes and
fly to an airfield in Eastern
Turkey, taking with him the
latest secret code of the air
force. Once in Turkey he
would be met by representa-
tives of the private intelli-
gence organization and be
taken to the United States.
Young Stain was willing.
But he asked that besides the
promised asylum. he be given
full security for the rest of his

to be called.
Still split. the subcommittee
also tackles another proposal to
give the Pentagon authority to
draft youths between 10 and 26
into the reserves if it fails to
get enough volunteers for a spe-
cial new training program.
The subcommittee has ap-
proved a plan to permit between
100000 and 100000 youths of
17-18 years to volunteer for six
months training and seven and
a half years in the reserves. This
would save them Is months of
active duty from the required
service of draftees. but would
add the time to their reserve
obligation.

garner all the advantage of
peace mongering" as opposed
to war mongering."
Realistically, there is nothing
likely to come out of the dis
armament" debate because the
principals on the side. Of the
Western allies refuse to come
to grips with the basic reason
why there is a war cloud on the
horizon almost constantly in
this epoch of history. It's be-
cause the. free world cannot
trust the rulers of the slave
world. It's because the OPP
pressed peoples have no voice
in choosing their own govern
ment and are at the mercy of
relationships. Also, as long as
these relationships continue to
be given recognition by the free
world. little encouragement is
given to the enslaved peoples
to rise UP against their rulers.
No democracy today is safe
because it is subject to attack
from within and without by the
forces of Communist imperial
ism. Until the peoples now be-
hind the Iron Curtain" are
free. there can be neither re-
duction of armament nor dis
armament. The proponents of
limiting armament have the
cart before the horse.
The peoples in the free world
unfortunately are not aware of
the insurmountable obstacles
which at present bar the way
to peace, Governments and
parliamentS nevertheless still
feel it is desirable to hold
forth the hope of "diSarma-
ment." Elections are won that
way and statesmen stay in
power by constantly keeping
up the hopes of the people that
no stone is being left unturned
to attain peace.
But the peoples generally
are being nlsled in the sense
that they are not being told
the truth about the whole
problem. Thus, in many a
country today, including some
quarters in our own land, they

Heads They Whit oils We Lose
Little Cost to Russia Seen Red China and D. S. 60 to War
With West Facing Indefinite Defense of Fornooso

Ten army generals, who had
been denoted to obscurity by
Stain, have recently been
promoted to the rank of mar
shall by the Khrushchev-Bul-
ganan governments sign OF
increased military influence
in the Soviet Union.
We live in SO strange a
world that this is interpreted
as an improved prospect for
peace. American generals
argue that these Russians are
"realists" and know that the
United States has adequate
military power to smash a Red
Chinese attack on Quemoy and
Matsu, and may, therefore,
stay the Red Chinese hand.
The Pentagon has noted also
that Soviet radio propaganda
is piping down on attacking
American Far Eastern policy.
Several explanations are ad-
vanced for these developments,
but the simplest one is, that the
Russians don't intend to be
drawn into a Far Eastern war.
In Stains phrase, uttered on
the eve of World War II, the
Soviets will not pull other
peoples chestnuts out of the
fire."
The Soviet interest is in its
own security and in that alone

be emulated. BY its treaties

makes right. This is the argu-
ment being used by many So
called liberals" who propose
that Red China be recognized
or that the sell-out of Poland
at Yalta be forgotten and con-
sidered water over the dam.
The millions of persons be-
hind the Iron Curtain" who
hope for emancipation some
day are not encouraged when
they read that expediency and

way out of every dilemma

Disarmament" is a magic
word. 1t is supposed to be a
synonym for peace" 1t makes
headlines right along, whether
1t is based on a promise out of
Moscow to explore the sub
ject or whether it ensues from
the appointment of a minis
ter for disarmament" as
Harold Stassen has been called.
But the word disarmament"
is a misnomer. No government
really intends to agree to dis
card all its weapons. What is
being suggested for discussion
is a reduction" Of armament
with an agreement to prohibit
the use of atomic or hydrogen
bombs.
Actually the entire dis
armament" project today is a
granddaughter alike by
sklllful strategists on both sides
of the cold war" 1t is used
to give the impression that
each sponsor of "disarma-
ment" is anxious to avoid war
and insure peace.
But while disarmament" or
Limitation of armament" is a
worthy goal. the whole idea is
enveloped today in a major
illusion. 1t is that merely by

mula for reduction of arma-
ment the end result-peace

be approached not only to OBJ

unvouchered funds. but also

tator into this country.
The terms of VASTLY Stain
appeared stiff at first glance.
But those who wanted to get
him out of the USSR believed
his propaganda value was
worth a hundred times the
price.
The usual red tape and slow
moving actions began. The
head of the independent intelli-
Gence group was asked by the
CHA what guarantees he had
that the Soviet code would be
genuine or up to date. Our Of
flcialS also wanted to know
what would happen if young
Stains plane could not get as
far as Eastern Turkey. Would
he not be willing to accept a
smaller sum? No deserter was
ever paid such a sum. What
would happen if after the ulti-
mately agreed amount was paid
at the bank, he welshed on his
promises?
And, our officials further
asked, what if young Stain
could not get away; or his
co-pilot, whom he wanted to
bring out of the USSR, be-
trayed him?
There was the usually dilly-
dalling, the sending of top
secret memoranda from one
desk to another; consultations
between various policy-making
committees and individuals. At
least one Senator became in
terested in the project and
urged that it be expedited.
