This writer, by coincidence,
happened to be alone with the
Kentucky Senator that after
noon in 1852 and also on the
day in 1914 when he issued his
statement differing with FDR
on the tax bill. Chagrin was
written on his face, but he
never whimpered. He had car
ried the ball valiantly in the
Senate for FDR. He had gone
down the line for labor, only to
be tossed aside in favor of the
radicals in the Democratic
Party who wanted someone
closer to their theology on other
issues. Both disappointments
left their mark. He could have
busted things wide open with
speeches of denunciation, but
he preferred not to do any,
thing to hurt his own party.
Had Alben Barley been on
the ticket with Roosevelt in
November, 1914, it would have
been the Kentucky Senator
rather than Harry Truman
who would have had the chance
to succeed to the presidency
in April, 1945.
Does it pay to be courageous?
Alden Barkley will be remem-
oered for his courage long
after some of the others who
attained higher honors are

CONSTANTINE BROWN
twas q Red Magazine First Proposed
Summit Talks and Culture Proorom

The start of the year was,
according to administration
leaders, full Of ominous signs
pointing. not to another world
war, but to local ARRAYS which
would place this country in a
difficult position. There was
particularly a fear-exagger-
ated as developments showed
recently-of a bloody conflict
in the Middle East between the
Arabs and Israel.
Washington's fears early
last month over a conflict in
the Middle East were not
shared by a number of coun-
tries in that area. Responsible
Turkish officials particularly
minimized the threat, saying
that If an armed conflict de-
veloped 1t would be the doing
Of the USSR. And because of
the new face" which the
Bulganin Khrushchev team
wanted to show to the Western
world, there were ample rea-
sons to believe that the Krem-
lin would not push the Arabs
into action for the time being.
A feeling of relief that there
will be no violence in any por-
ton of the world-not even in
the Formosa Strait-prevails
now in Washington. Nobody
can give an adequate argument
as to why things have changed.
But most policy-makers hope
that the lamb and the wolf are
about to become bedfellows.
The military in the Pentagon
alone are unconvinced. They
suspect that the new Soviet
face" is a trap to lull the
Western nations into a spirit
of security which could become
in the long run our undoing.
While it is unlikely that this
country will let down it's
guard. all our Western Euro
pean allies are about ready to
cut drastically their military
budgets and defense establish
ments.
The Western leaders intend
to make the NATO into a be-
nevolent association instead of
a defense coalition. This DEM
onstrates that the recent

Maryland Nearly
Doubles Revenue
From Income Tax

/ BALTIMORE, May 2 (P.-
The State Of Maryland will take
in nearly twice as much income
tax for the fiscal year ending
June 80 as it did in fiscal 1855.
says the man who keeps the gov
ernmental books.
Comptroller j. Willard Tawes,
says the collection will run to
about $80,890.50O. Last year in
come tax collections amounted
to $46,864, 679.
Mr.. Tawes explained that the
unusually high figure is due
mainly to the fact the new with
holding tax went into effect dur
ing the year, and for six months
there were double payments of
taxes. Just how much of the
total is normal tax payment and
how much is windfall, he said,
won't be known until after
June 30.

LeMoy Seen Not Getting Much Attention
On Warnings of u. S. Air Power Needs

Gen. Curtis E. LeMay, his
thick black thatch now widely
streaked with gray, chomped
on his cigar and returned dour
civilities to those who ap-
preached him.
Should the worst for which
this country is being prepared
really happen, LeMay is the
man whose Strategic Air Com
mand must confront the Rus
slams on the first-and very
probably the last-frontier of
nuclear combat.
With bitter calm he has been
giving Senate subcommittee
a picture of the view from the
actual barricades. 1t is not a
nice view.
LeMay said Russian striking
power would exceed our own
by 1880 unless we get more
nomoers, more tankers and
more bases. He said there have
been no changes of conse-
quence in the Air Force pro-
gram of 1858, though we have

of juveniles wittily gibed at

finding their visit great fun.
One cannot imagine that the
omniscience would ever have
visited London, or that if he
had, the occasion would have
been a picnic.
But in Russia and the Com
munist world, the problem Of
authority. which is basic to
government. remains unsolved
by any principles of legitimacy.
That is the dilemma that
eventually faces all govern
ments established by the vio-
lent overthrow of an estab-

Operation Put 'Em-to-S Sleep

The few who took the
trouble to read the editorials
, in that magazine pooh poohed
the idea. Those in Washing
ton pointed out that President
Eisenhower had gone on record
as definitely opposed to such
suggestions. Yet, within a few
months the summit conference
at Geneva was decided on and

members of parlia m e n is
rushed to Moscow to enjoy the
VIP treatment. :
Some people frowned when
the news was made public at
the height of these lovey-dovey
actions that the USSR had
agreed to supply the Arab
world with arms to enable it
to fight Israel. But the Krem-
lin took good care of that.
During the B a. K visit to
London the pair joined the
Western nations in urging the
disputants to exercise patience.
They knew that the Arabs
would heed their suggestions
because when they obtained
arms from Czechoslovakia.
Moscow ordered the Czechs to
send ammunition for no more
than two or three weeks Of
heavy fighting
Comrade Khrushchev got
annoyed at the boos and jeers
received in Britain and said
a few harsh words under the
impact of insults no other high
official ever received from the
painStakingly correct British.
But he thought it over during
the sea trip home and decided
that a thick skin is preferable
to sensitive one. And when
he landed in Moscow he told
the cheering crowds that he
and Bulganin had been COR
daily received in Britain and
expressed the expectation that
they might see America, too.

The Weep Opposed FDR on Tax Issue
In IA and Lost Chunce to Be President

that convention that FDR had
not forgiven the Kentucky
Senator for his manifestation
of independence. In FDR's
book Senators were rubber
stamps"-or else they lost his
support. That's why he also
carried on a feud with Sena-
tor Walter George of Georgia
and tried to purge" him, but
without success.
The second instance in
which Alben Barley paid the
penalty for his independence
occurred during the 1852
national convention at Chi
cago when he was ruled out of
