war. is SO effective that there is
hardly single military secret
they do not know. Our eco
nomic position also is being
studied and reported to Mos
COW with / high degree of ac-
curacy. There is little the top
leaders III Moscow do not know
about America and Britain. ex-
-ept the psychology of the
English-speaking people. They
confuse an ardent desire for
peace with weakness and will
llngnesS to become SubServ-
lent.
But while there is nothing
much that can be taught to
the Soviets with the hope that
what they may see will change
their ultimate detectives for
world domination. a visit to
Washington would have a
powerful impact on the ma
tons which are within gun
range of Russia Turkey, Iran,
Pakistan. Japan and the Phil
ippineS. These countries are
determined to halt the Red
inroadS. Their resistance has
been bolStered heretofore by
their belief that we mean what
we say when we ask for deeds
and not mere words and ges-
lures from the Soviet govern
ment.
But the impact of the cur
rent tour was not as bad as
it would have been if the
American Government had
done the same. Britain's
policies toward Communist
China have taught them
that in London economic in
terests COR possibly economic
gains prevail sometimes over
political morality. But they
do not expect the same from
the United States.
An invitation to Bulganin
and KhruShchev, or even to
Zhukov would definitely be
interpreted among our Middle
Eastern friends as an indica-
ton that they need no longer
reckon on America and that
they had better make their
own arrangements with the
USSR.

Congress has the right to in
vestigate and get information
on any phase Of communism
or Communist infiltration, or
anything else on which it seeks
to obtain data.
This principle, long estab-
lished. now has been reaf-
firmed by the United States
Court Of Appeals here by a g.
to- decision. The issue arose
in a case where a defendant
didn't plead the Fifth Amend
ment but asserted that a con-
gressional committee didn't
have the right to expose"
anybody but merely to get in
formation really needed for
legislation.
The Importance of the case
is that a few weeks ago, by a
2-to-1 decision, a section of the
Court of Appeals here ruled in
favor Of the witness. Now
Judge Walter Bastian. who was
in the minority then, heads the
court in rendering the deci-
sion in which eight judges par
ticipated.
The case is important be-
cause it strikes at a fallacy
widely believed by many So
called liberals" who have
contended that, unless a con-
gressional committee can fur
nlsh absolute proof that it
is constitutionally authorized
to get the information it seeks
from witness. the latter is
justified in declining to an
sWer.
The late Albert Einstein
once wrote a letter urging wit
nesSeS to ignore a congress

about past affiliations and So
called political" beliefs.

Union, which has been carry
ing on a crusade against con-
gressional inquiries, has con-
