When President Eisenhower
got sick last fall, and a dozen
well-known Democrats consid-
cred they might have a chance
for the nomination if there was
nobody to beat except some
otner Republican, everybody
was talking about a wide open

now unless Stevenson manages
to recoup. Everybody would go

that the convention would feel

The Air Force announced this
week a major breakthrough"
in the unrelenting search for
new information about the up
per atmosphere.
From Baltimore, the Air Re-
search and Development Com
mand revealed the rey4lts Of an
experiment performed last week
at Holloman Air Development
Center in New Mexico. ARDC
scientists sent an Aerobee rock
ct zooming so miles above the
earth where it released a pres
surized charge Of nitric oxide
gas. The result: a man-made
star that momentarily glowed
with about twice the brightness
of the planet Venus and ap-
peared to observers on the
ground to be about four times
the diameter of the moon.
The spot of light was seen by
observers more than so miles
from the launching site. The
"star" faded out after a life of
about 10 minutes.
The achievement confirmed in
reality what scientists had dis
covered earlier in the labora-
tory. Energy from the sun is
chemically stored in the oxy-
gen atoms of the upper atmos-
phere. BY increasing the ma
tural amount of nitric oxide in

Turkish elements. Cypriots of

ish Cypriots generally are for
continued British rule or, if that
ends. a return of the island to
Turkey.
Gov. Sir John Harding, the
British commander on Cyprus,
told news conference he firm
ly believed the get-tough policy
now under way would produce
a marked change on the island
in the next six months. He said
his first objective was to end
terrorism and make Cyprus safe.
He also plans to push an Sc mill
lion dollar development pro-
gram which envisages social and
economic gains for the people.
Eventually, he hopes the highly
complicated political problem of
Cyprus future can be reexam-
ined with an open mind when
all interested parties can feel
free to speak of their future
without fear of terror or in
timidation.

sador G. Douglas Dillon an
nounced that France has "the
wholehearted support of the
United States government in its

The statement was interpreted
as an official squelching of ru-
mors that the United States was
sympathetic or at least not an
tagonistic to rebel movements in
North Africa.

With the city of Algiers bris-

a city under siege, French Resi-

this week launched his two

Lacoste had two weapons

up, since they had no real con-
test of their own to consider.
Nevertheless, vast numbers of
Republicans gave the President
testimonial vote against Sen.
Knowland, who announced after
his name was entered that his
candidacy, an interim one be-
fore the President announced,
was a thing of the past.
Primarily, Kefauver just de-
monstrated that he had the
Democratic votes. His promise
of 100 per cent farm parity may
have played a part. Stevenson
wouldn't make it.
Severe Setback
Stevenson has suffered a Sc
we're wound. More than one
leading contender has been
doomed by such a pre- -conven-
ton setback.
The political wiseacres will
still contend that Stevenson is
the only man who can hope to
make a fight of it with Eisen-
hover next fall They still won't
expect the Southerner to break
the barriers against him when
the professional politicians get
to working on the ticket at the
Chicago convention
But what will actually happen|
at the convention is, for the
time-being, an open question. If
Kefauver can't win, even if he
garners more delegates in ad-
vance than anyone else, as he
did in 80, will that do Steven
son any good?

Gates Democratic picture
which has changed considerably
in the past six or eight months.
Until President Eisenhower got
sick, the Democratic showing in
the off-year elections of "a had
been the biggest thing visible
on the political horizon. People
were saying that eyen Eisen-
hover would have a hard time
holding them off.
Democrats Divided
Since then the Democrats
have been divided over several
issues. AT some other points in
Congress they have gone along
with the Republicans. There are
rumblings of great new fight
over civil rights, revolving
around the issue of desegrega-
ton.
National prosperity, that great
rock to which an incumbent adj
ministration can cling through
almost any storm, seems to be
renewing itself after slight
faltering.
And at least for the moment
the great Democratic rallying
emblem, the banner of Steven
son, is being pushed around on a
field where the tide of battle has
become uncertain.

Myth Smashed

From Murmansk in the arctic
to Tashkent in no. and arid
south central Asia, fuactionaries
of the Russian Communist party
were busy this week spreading
the gospel according to Khru-
|shcheSr: Joseph Stain was pho
bia-Tidden murderer and blum
derez who killed off thousands
OF his party associates in the
great purges of the i930s and
held even his closest aides in a
reign of terror.
The gospel, in the form of a
letter from the Central Com
mittee containing the text of a
secret speech made by party
boss fJikita KaS-sshchev at the
recent party congress, was first
being read only to the party's
hard cere. Presumably it later

Although correspondents in
Moscow were at first unable to
report Ine exact nature of Khru-
shchev's denunci4tion Of the late
dictator, Western diplomats have
been able to transmit the gist of
the speech to their home gov
ernments. These reports indicate
the party boss went far beyond
that criticism of Stain which
did become public during the
congress. He IaSnched a full
scale program Of mass reeduca-
ton to smash completely the
legend of heroic accomplishment
built up around the Russian die
tator during his lifetime.
Although there were isolated
reports Of anger and public dem

onstrations against the new ap-
praisal of Stain, Russians in
Moscow maintained their stoical
calm.
Diplomats generally said they
believe the new collective lead
ership felt it vital that Soviet
power and future life be based
on facts more objective than the
fanciful pattern built w around
Stain.
Their estimate was that Khru-
shchev and his associates ap-
parently had judged correctly
that the public was ready for
idol smashing.
One of the most puzzling
questions arising from this lat
est twist in the party line was
why the present leaders set out
to spzash the Stain idol so dra-
maaically. Observers have point
ed out that it could have been
done just as effectively but with
out such bombast. and perhaps

ply prohibiting any future men,

is also the fact that in some de-
gree the Soviet program aims
at stirring up trouble-as with
the arms for Egypt deal-which
is always easier to achieve in
international eesaIrs than the
American aim of strengthening
the peace.
Nevertheless. taking all fac
tors into consideration, it would
seem that it would be useful
for Americans to devote some
thought to the subject of for
eign aid. In the coming gears,
the effectiveness with whicA
American funds are sIent in
this field viii play a signncant
role in world affairs. II is not
as it used 10 be a few years
back when the United States
had 10 competition in the busi-
ness 81 assisting foreign nations
of Rhe non-Communist world.
Recent history as well as the
logic of the contemporary in
ternational situation provides
some useful keys for reMsinking
foreign aid.
Worked i'm Europe
In The first place the United
States had great success with
foreign aid under the European
recovery program. The Marshall
Plan achieved its detectives:
Illustration of Soviet political
advances in Western Europe
and the rebuilding Of Western
European economies. In large
degree because of the Marshall
Plan, Western Europe today is
economically viable. Western
European nations are for the
most part producing at the high
est rates in their history and
aside from military aid are sa-
dependent of the need for for
| eign aid.
In the second place. this re-
suit was achieved primarily by
economic aid rather than nili-
tary aid. It was only in the last
years of the European. recovery
program after the Korean War
broke out-that the great shift
in emphasis took place in the
us. foreign aid program from
economic to military assistance.
The immediate military threat
posed by the Korean War and
its surrounding circumstances
has receded. But the emphasis
in us. foreign aid on military
assistance persists.
Misplaced Emphasis
One question which ought to
be asked is whether foreign aid
on the scale it is being given by
the United States would not go
much further towards achieve
ment of US. political objectiyes
abroad if the emphasis were
shifted back to the economic
side.
There are many other impor-
tant questions about foreign aid,
about ways of distributing it TO
secure maximum effect. about
the relationship Of aid to for
eign and domestic policies of
governments receiving it, about
means 3f securing greater prop
aganda and psychological re-
turn for it,. It adds up tc lot
of money anJ it is important
THAT it should be used well
Milford chronicle., 1956-03-30

later point was emphasized
particularly by Dulles at the
conclusion of his tour in Japan.
For the next fiscal year. start
ing July l, the President asked
Congress for an appropriation of
S4,859, ,975,00 This compares
with an actual appropriation for
the current fiscal year of $2,703,-
341,750, but this year there were
large unexpended balances from
previous years that could also
be used.
Most Military
BY far the largest part of the
proposed foreign aid program
proposed by the Presiden* is for
military assistance. More than
four billion of it is scheduled
to go for military aid and de-
Tense support.
The principal funds to be used
for economic assistance are: ITO
million requested for develop
ment assistance, 157 million for
technical cooperation, $3.50, 600
for foreign atomic reactor prof.
ects, 100 million for an emer-
gency fund to be at the Presi-
dents disposal and another spe-
cial 100 million for the Middle
East and Africa.
It must be stressed that these
are the funds requested. Those
granted may be considerably
smaller.
One of the reasons foreign aid
is likely to be such hot sub
ject this election year is the
view frequently voiced that the
United States is not receiving
political and military benefits
commensurate with the money
it has been spending abroad.
S0FACSS GxEEkAsC
Certainly one fact has emerged
in recent months. The Soviet
Union. with a much smaller for

only in its initial stages and
which involves few If any out
right gifts and grants, has man.

da and political returns as COM
pared with the American pro-
gram.
There are many objective rea-
sons for this. One is the fact

The northeast celebrated the
arrival of spring this week with
snow plows and snovels, strug-
Cling to get out from under
nearly two feet of wind-blown
snow which crippled transpor-
tation throughout the region
and temporarily slowed the fe-
verish pace of machine-age New
York City to a folksy country
crawl.
On winters last weekend, two
storms churned up the Atlantic
Coast only a day apart to dump
up to 20 inches of new snow on
parts of Massachusetts,, Rhode
Island and Connecticut. New
Hampshire, Vermont and Maine
had less than 10 inches.
Thousands Stranded
Thousands of commuters were
stranded, whole communities
were isolated and coastal low
lands flooded by high tides.
Drifting snow and stalled auto
mobiles blocked roads through
out southern New England. The
twin storms caused at least $50
deaths, most in traffic accidents
or from heart attacks following
|overexertion.
A state of emergency was de-
|clared in Suffolk County, Long
Island. Drifts up to IA feet deep
cut off the islands eastern tip.
Several communities were with
out food or fuel deliveries for
two days.
Nature Takes Over
In New York City itself. the
transportation breakdown pre-
vented thousands of suburban
commuters from reaching work
in Manhattan. As a result,
streets which usually TEEN with
activity were as quiet and peace
full as country lanes and solitary
pedestrians plodded down the
center of Fifth Avenue. Under
any other conditions, that would
be tantamount to suicide.
