DAVID LAWRENCE
Both Parties Drop Early Principles

the economic life of the indi-
vidual and creating a master
state has been continuous for
decades. The widespread inn
preston that one group or
faction or party has wanted
progress and the other has
preferred stagnation is an
oversimplification. The fight
always has been against en-
croachment upon individual
freedom through reckless ex-
Fermentation. 1t was Ralph
Waldo Emerson who in his
Essay on Politics" more than
a hundred years ago wrote in
effect: what a pity that one
party today has all the ideas
and the other party is the only
one that knows how to make
them work."
This may explain the i'm
provementS claimed by the
Republican Party of today in
making practical some of the
New Deal reforms.
Today neither party can
convincingly call itself the
party of Jefferson, and neither
today can accurately be called
democratic" with a small ID"
for each has abandoned the
basic principles of Thomas
Jefferson.
Both party leaderships now
adays believe in a centralized
government with Federal con-
troll of education, though they
often deny such a purpose.
Both believe in superseding
State laws whenever political
expediency or the rewards
from a pressure group dictate
such a course. Both believe in
Federal control of business and
of employer-employe relations.
Within each party, of course,
there is dissent against such
liberalization, and a cry to
uphold the thesis of Jefferson
that the best government is
the one that interferes the
least with the rights Of the
citizen. But the dissenters are
a small minority. AS the mis-
takes Of centralized govern
ment multiply. a new Com
sensus" or a majority coalition
may some day recover the
ground lost in the last four
decades through abrogation of
constitutional rights and dis
regard of the principles Of
Thomas Jefferson.

Dangers of Military Action in Suez

Secretary Dulles, for ex-
ample. has been reminded to
consider the danger of ma
tionalization in Saudi Arabia,
where American oil companies
have billions invested La q
tremendous enterprise.
King Saud. it is pointed out,
could act like Mossadegh in
Iran or Nasser in Egypt at any
time he chose, and on the same
grounds. That he is unlikely
to do so at this time is no
assurance that he won't
change his mind If the pros
poets look better later.
But logic, and cold neces-
sity, cannot change the fact
that military action against
Nasser will have the eravest
political and moral repercus-
sions to the West and to the
entire free world.

on all the neutral nations as
well. There will be a con-
certed howl of outraged protest
the minute a British or q
French soldier puts his foot on
the soil of Egypt. There will,
of course, be an organized
protest to the United Nations
for action to halt the "aggres-
sion" and to punish the Tag
gresSors." The Soviet Union
will. as Moscow has already
plainly indicated, back such a
move to the hilt.
While the United Nations
can do nothing about any
action of Britain and France
beyond a simple scolding and
a deploring of military action,
the value Of the U.N. as q
propaganda springboard for
the Communists will be i'm
mense. And since the sound
ing board" consideration has
been Russia's first and major
reason for remaining in the
U. NJ, no stone will be left I'M
turned to portray the United
States, Britain and France as
arch-villains and Egypt as a
poor, downtrodden and saw
agely mistreated victim of i'm
perialiSt aggression.
Prime Minister Anthony
Eden and his cabinet are, of
course. fully aware Of the
grave dangers in their APP
parent decision to try to bring
Nasser to terms by force of
arms. But the British attitude,
expressed in many ways since
Nasser seized the Suez Canal
Company, is simply that the
Egyptian strong man must not
and cannot be allowed to get
away with his action.
There is logic in the British
position that, unless Nasser is
forced to rescind his nation
alization and return the canal
to the company, there will be
bigger and better seizures
later, and in many other areas
of the world.

The wisdom of Britain and
France in adding heavily to
the garriSons of the Mediter-
ranean bases appears to be
questionable at this late date.
Power once withdrawn from
an area can be restored only
at great cost and amid great
difficulties. And the power of
Britain and France in the
Mediterranean is long since a
thing of the past, its vestiges
only puny reminders of the
days of empire.
OF course, the two nations
can build up the Cyprus bases,
only $50 miles from the Suez
Canal. They can send troops
and planes, tanks and guns,
transports and warships. But
they will be sending them to
an island torn by strife. where
almost every day brings a
shooting or a bombing to re-
mind them that empires day
is over.

the futility of the Vests
military posturing that Cyprus
has been chosen, because it is

as a base for possible military
operations against Nasser, will
be no comfortable rear area
for the Vests armed forces.
Every hour, every day. on

will have to maintain an alert
guard against attempts at sab
otage. Every member Of EOKA
will be ready for any oppor-
tunity to attack troops and
equipment, supplies and depots.
And an army fighting with an
insecure rear is only half an
army.

gloomy military aspect of the
crisis is the psychological eff
feet any military force will

Apropos the recent decision
Of the Republican headquar-

colloquy is being quoted in the

Maybe the time has come to
question whether either Of
the parties is sticking to his

rooted in democratic princi-
Piles. Its political instrument
was the Republican Party,

Democratic. In 1900, it was
