Nehru's Brand of Aggression

Geneva q year ago they
spurned the United Nations
and still do. President Rhee is
willing to negotiate directly
with the North Koreans after
the Chinese Red army is with
drawn and the North Korean
army is demobilized.
The position Of the United
States in all this is anomalous.
The Washington government
is committed to the support Of
q United Nations plan for
supervision Of any solution.
Secretary Dulles sees no signs
Of any progress toward uni
fication and reiterates that
America viii not use force to
unity Korea. This is a doctrine
proclaimed on June s, 1858,
in a letter to President Rhee
from President Eisenhower.
The South Korean chieftain,
of course, has known for a
long time that the prevailing
doctrine is to "renounce the
use Of force" Everybody
seems to be willing nowadays
to forgo any big war or even
a medium-sized war. SO the
new wrinkle is to try peace
full demonstration" This is
merely means Of killing Just
q few people to earn some
headlines.
All that Syngman Rhee
wants is that the Communists
get Of his land and give him
back the part Of his territory
they were uniustly granted at
Panmunjom. That's why he,
too. puts on a few peaceful
demonstrations" Doubtless he
viii be denounced by the neu-
.tralists and left-wing spokes-
men as a disturber of the
peace. Yet the chief neutral
ist in New Delhi viii continue
his coercive economic cam
paign against Goa and will
undoubtedly call it all q
peaceful excursion" with
"nonyiolence." But the right
name for the massing Of In
dians who crossed the frontier
is aggression and invasion and
it has been and will continue
to be provocative Of bloodshed.
Despite the inspirational meet
ing at Geneva, the cold war
goes on.

There's q new propaganda

cross over into the little Portu-
guese colony Of Goa. on the.
Indian coast.
When the Portuguese from

Goa is a tiny territory which
has been Portuguese for 400
years. Its representatives are
a part of the Portuguese Par
hament.- It has Q Portuguese
culture. It no more belongs to
India than Hong Kong belongs
to China or Bermuda to the
United States. The controversy
over Goa has been inspired by
the Communists. as they know
1t will tend to strain relations
between the United States and
India and between Britain and
India. That's because the Lon
don government has an alli-
ance with Portugal and because
the United States needs the
Azores for air bases and is
about to negotiate . new
agreement with Portugal.
All the doubletalk that has
been coming from New Delhi
about desiring peace In the
world has been revealed to be
insincere. When 1t suits Nehru
to begin an aggression OF his
own. he does not hesitate to
do so.

Chostisements of World Peace

man regime, she opens the
gates to q horde of Trojan
Horses and encompasses her
peaceful" ruin--and every
West German knows that, too.
tThe present concept Of world
peace does not outlaw Trojan
Horses. They remain the i'm
moral equivalent Of war;
West Germany has. there
fore, no choice but to stick
with the West. and every Rus
sian move since Geneva proves
it. She has no choice but to
abandon. in fact If not in
words. her Eastern brothers
whom her Western associates
have. in fact. already aban-
doned.
But q nation without some
power of free choice cannot
be a great power. however in
dustrious and prosperous her
people may be. And a nation of
so crowded millions confined
within narrow frontiers Is q
small state among superpow-
erS.
The best that Chancellor
Adenauer can do seems to be
to return from Moscow empty
handed, while leaving the So
viets empty handed, too. Two
Germanys cannot have dip
lomatic. economic. and cul-
tural relations" with the power
that wholly commands the
policies. people, strategy and
tactics Of one of them.
Even If one yields to force
and reality, one need not
voluntarily gid the situation
with legality. The German
Chancellor is a man Of dignity.

will, of course, condemn Por-
tugal and applaud Nehru and
argue that 1t. is "colonialism"
which is being uprooted. But
the real purpose Of the peace

Goa Is to force the issue into
the United Nations in the
hope that the United States
and Britain will be embar-
raised and will refrain from
participation as some scheme
Is devised TO let India grab
the territory of Goa.
AS for Korea. the peaceful
demonstrations" there have
consisted of riots in protest
against the presence Of Polish
and Czech members Of the So
called Neutral Nations Super
visory Commission appointed
to carry out the terms Of the
Panmunjom armistice. Tt
looked for a while as II these
pro- Communist members Of
the commission would be
forced out bodily from South
Korea. but the United States
military stepped In to prevent
it. Maybe President Rhee
knew that would be the re-
suit, but maybe also he saw
the value Of q. little propa-
ganda to publicize through
out the world the true situa-
ton with respect to the Po-
lish and Czech members Of
the commission.
For. while this commission
Is permitted to 60 anywhere
in South Korea, the Swedish
and Swiss representatives are
not allowed to inspect where
they please in North Korea. A
military build-up in North
Korea has been going on ever
since the armistice.
The agreement to end hos
tilities has been ignored and
violated by the Communists
to such an extent that the
Swedish and Swiss members
want to resign. Secretary
Dulles also thinks 1t is futile
for the commission to try to
operate any more.

distinguishes the Soviet Sc

book, ''is the size and the yir-
tually unlimited scope Of its
efforts" After saying that the
Soviet intelligence employs
some 25o,000 men and women
in all kinds Of espionage. ten
times the number used by all
Western nations combined, the
British author adds: But even
this is only a part Of the Com

Senators Explain
Disaster Plan Vote
BY the Associated Press

Senator Byrd, Democrat, OF
Virginia said today it would be
"cluttering up the Constitution"
to provide for gubernatorial APP
pointment of House members in
case of disaster.
The Senate last week APP
proved by 1873 a joint resolu-
ton proposing a constitutional
amendment to permit temporary
appointment of House members
if more than one-half are wiped
out.
Senators George. Democrat. of
Georgia; Stennis, Democrat, Of
Mississippi and Byrd voted
against the resolution.
The amendment concerns
something that may not hap
pen anyway" Senator Byrd said.
II don't think it was given due
consideration"
Senator Stennis told the Sen
ate he believed the proposed
amendment would be evidence
that we would be legislating in
an atmosphere of fear"

The House has already voted
to scrap the Eisenhower admin

of rigid price supports as voted

service to restaurants, stores,

while maintaining it's usual mu-
