Innuendo and Presidents Health

prognosiS"? Did any Of them
examine the President? Are
the doctors who attended Eli
Senhower to become victims of
character assassination just be-
cause they happened to be
summoned to attend the Presi-
dent of the United States?
Is a man in the United States
Army Medical Corps the tool
of a political party, or does
he serve his country irrespec-
tive of party?
The record shows that the
press conference was called on
June 8 at the request of the
newspapermen. that it oc-
CURED long time after the
abdominal operation and its
anesthetic, and that Maj. Gen.
Heaton, the doctor who was
interviewed. did not take the
initiative in making any IAN
nouncement." All he did was
answer a reporters long ques-
ton. which inquired whether
he thought that what the doc
tors had said on February IA
with respect to the Presidents
fitness to run for reelection
after his heart attack was now
to be modified by any medical
reason. The answer was. Il
certainly do not"
1t wasn't the Presidents
press secretary or any honest
Republicans" or honest Dem
ocrats" in the Medical Corps
who started the discussion Of
medical fitness in relation to
politics.
For several weeks the dis
tortionS have gone on without
receiving the slightest disap-
proving comment from those
who all along have commended
that innuendo and insinuation
of guilt should never be en-
ployed in public debate and
that no man should be wan
tonly accused of deviating from
duty or ethics or loyalty to
his profession unless there is
conclusive proof thereof.
Maybe it's a sense of guilt
that brings the unhappiness
to the accusers of the PreSi-
dents physicians. And maybe
trying to win an election for
Stevenson by any means avail
able-even condemnation of
the Nations foremost medical
men-produces its own cycle of
unhappiness.

him at his word.

burden of it was that the Presi-

CONSTANTINE BROWN
President Being Advised That Program
Might Lose More Voters Than 1t Wins

President Eisenhower is
being cautioned by a number
Of Republican Senators and
Representatives to go easy on
his plans to make foreign aid
one of the important issues of
his campaign lest it boone
rang.
The House slash of the
foreign aid bill to $3.4 billion
leaves it well below the mini
mum considered necessary by
the Chief Executive. This
amount may be increased by
the Senate. But it is highly
doubtful that the upper house
will add more than $500
million.
The Republican Congress-
men did not wish to slap down
the Presidents policies. They
voted for the greatly reduced
foreign aid appropriation
merely because they are being
swsmped with letters from
their constituents protesting
against the vernme n It's
largesse with the taxpayers
money.
There was no organized
letter-writing campaign from
pressure groups. The mail TO
Senators and Representatives
frequently written with
pencil = merely expresses a
strong grass roots sentiment
against further laviShneSS to
foreign countries. These letters
have been increasing in the
last few weeks. Many said
frankly that unless the legisla-
tors voted against the bill the
writer's would either stay home
on election day or look to
another less lavish candidate.

He said witnesses before the

Saying the report considers
membership in the Communist
conspiracy as a political belief
and tries to create the impress
sion that people are being

machinery of persecution which
has a bunch of crackpots at the
controls" Mr.. Walter added:
Its total is to blacken the
name of every organization and
every individual who has sin
cerely and periodically been
engaged in trying to get rid of
Communist conspirators in the
movies and on radio and
televiSion.
Mr.. Walter said that if the
charges made in the report are
true. then I'VE are faced with a
very grave menace to the tradi-
tions of civil liberty and fair
play upon which this country
is founded"

Foreign Aid as Campaign Issue

country that the dangers Of
another war involving this
country have lessened con-
siderably. Under these circum.
stances clipping the taxpay-
ers for several more billions
for foreign countries is con-
Sidered unnecessary. There is
another reason less obvious to
the Washington bureaucrats
which has contributed to the
grass roots revulsion to con-
tinued large-scale foreign aid.
This is the fact that the cost
of living is mounting and the
little fellow has to dip into
his savings-if he has any.
Statistically we live in an
era of unprecedented prosper
ity with an equally unprece-
denied employment. But the
men who initiated our foreign
policy, of which foreign aid
is an important part, do not
have to worry, as does the
average taxpayer. over the fact
that milk has gone up a cent
or that meat and vegetables
are considerably higher than
a few months ago.
Few of the Washington
policymakers are confronted
with the unpleasant situation
OF coming home and hearing
the wife say: John, I'm So
short this week in my house,
keeping money because every
thing has gone up" And they
do not have to dig into the
remaining small savings gath
cred over the years.
The invisible Cor indirect
taxes are beginning to hurt
more in this country than the
income tax itself. These con-
siderations add up to the pres
ent opposition of the people
to further large foreign as
siStance and cause realistic
politicians to warn Eisenhower
to think twice before he makes
the foreign aid program a
major campaign issue.

Nixon Speeches in Far East Seen
Unlikely to Improve Relations

I shall be surprised if Vice
President Nixon's journey to
Asia does anything to improve
American relations.
Nixon, like Dulles. has
adopted a schoolmasterly. at
titude that is not likely to be
appreciated by Asians, and
there is, also, inconsistency in
his attitude.
On the one hand, he told
the government of Pakistan
that the purpose of United
States aid to foreign countries
is to help them maintain their
independence. On the other.
he warned that if they ac-
cepted Soviet aid, they are
putting a rope around their
necks. At the same time he
indicated that American aid
would not necessarily be with
drawn if Soviet aid were also
accepted.
Now, if nation is truly in
dependent its relations with
other states are its own BUSH
ness. The new Asiatic states
are extremely sensitive about
this and suspicious, in general,
OF all the great powers. Their
leaders do not feel the need
for instruction about commu-
nism, nor are they anxious to
have their territory used as a
platform for attacks by one
great power upon another.
When Khrushchev was re-
Gently in India he made a
similar error and nettled In
dian leaders. by egregiously
tactless remarks about Great
Britain and her role in World
War II. He quite overlooked
the fact that Indian legions
were fighting that war along
with the British, when the
Russians were preserving a
neutrality beneficent to Hitler
and the Japanese war lords.
In his speeches on the dan
gers of neutralism, Nixon may
be correct. but he is not going
to make a single convert. All
he does is TO intensity useless
controversy.
Trying to "sell" American
aid is anyhow psychologically

report can be considered of value
only to those people whose in
Iterests it would further-the
participants in the Communist
conspiracy"
No Evidence of Blacklist
Mr.. Walter said the COM
Imittee's long study Of Com
munist infiltration in the enter
tainment field had turned up no
evidence of a blacklist as de-
scribed in the report. Nor has
the committee found, he added,
any Clearance men" who had
the power to wound and the
power to heal" in security mat
tiers in the entertainment world.
Both Mr.. Hartnett and Mr..
Brewer. who now lives in SIAM
ford, Conn.,, and works for
United Artists. denied emphati-
cally they had served as clear
ance men for entertainers tainted
with Communist connections.
The report said letter from
Mr.. Brewer when he was an
important labor figure was
enough to clear performers in
Hollywood"
Mr.. Brewer said the report
making him appear as the
supreme satanic majestic of the
industry in Hollywood" was "a
complete distortion of his activi-
ties" He. as we'll as other wit
nesses, said that what they did
in individual cases was to help
persons suspected of Communist
activities or sympathieS "rehabil-
itate" themselves.

false. 1t would be hard, in any
case, to make any nation
believe that another govern
ment gives away the national
wealth disinterestedly, and
here, in order to get appro-
priations from Congress, our
administration must argue
that the expenditures are
justified by American self
interest, and these arguments
are not a world secret.
1t would be much better to
tell those seeking Russian
economic assistance that the
American people would be glad
to have their burdens light
ened, that we assume the
recipients are aware of the
possible dangers involved in
deals with communism, but
that that is a risk for which
the United States cannot
assume responsibility. Gifts
which are pressed upon peo-
pie naturally awaken sus-
picion.
Nixon stayed four hours in
PakiStan, during which time
he took a slap at Nehru by
suggesting that he is unable to
read history correctly. Nehru
is proud, sensitive, fastidious,
from a great Indian family, of
an old race. and much better
educated even by Western
standards than Nixon.
Nehru is a man with the
many completes of Western
educated Asians brought up in
a white-supremacy world.
He certainly has no mood to
take a lecture from one who
must appear in his eyes as
a rather brash young man.
The value of this peri
patetic diplomacy is open to
grave question, especially when
there is no apparent integra-
ton Of policy.
While Nixon was in Paki-
stan, the Ninth International
Banking School was sitting
in New Brunswick, N. j., at
tended by 200 Western fl
nanciers and nine officials of
Communist state banks. Robert
