Biting the Hand That Feeds Them

been plain to everyone willing
to read a newspaper that Tito
and his former Kremlin bosses
and fellow-conspirators have
been brewing a coy deal. True,
there are reported to be grave
differences of opinion between
Tito and the Moscow ring as
to just how fast the Red con-
quest should be conducted.
But there have never been any
doubts that the conquest will
go on. And the prime target
of the conquest timetable is
the fiattening of the United
States.
There still persists in the
State Department a powerful
group whose thinking hasn't
changed on the subject Of
Tito. despite the facts that are
plain for all to see. These
gentry still insist that Tito Is
a nationalist independent, who
wants to build his own Com
munist empire and will resist
domination by the Soviet
Union to the bitter end. They
continue to predict that other
Communist nations, even Mao
Tse-tung's Communist China.
will assert their independence
of Moscow if Tito is successful
in his gambit.
But the cold, hard fact re-
mains that communism is COM
munism. In any showdown
with the forces of freedom, the
Communist countries. whether
they pretend to be independent
of the Kremlin or not. will look
to Moscow for spiritual. eco
nomic and military support.
That they will get it is a fore
gone conclusion. The enemy
of the Kremlin is freedom, not
dissident Reds. The rebels
can be liquidated later. The
free world is the foe to be
vanuuiShed.

Eisenhower Meets Resistance

But this is a political cam
paign-and most anything
goes.
AS for his political salvage
mission on the coast, the con-
sensus seemed to be that his
influence will not be enough
to rescue two close friends he
drafted to run for the Senate.
And this, in itself would be a
blow to his project of getting a
Republican Senate.
In Washington it does not
seem possible for Gov. Arthur
B. Langlie to unseat the Dem
ocratic incumbent Senator
Warren G. Magnuson. Nor in
Oregon does it seem likely that
former Secretary of the In
terror Douglas Mckay can I'M
horse the fiery, controversial
Democratic incumbent, Wayne
Morse, who once was a Repub-
lican.
Defeat of the two Republican
draftees likewise would be a
reputation of the Eisenhower
administration.
Partnership policy" on
water resources, whereby big
private utilities have won con-
cessions in valuable hydro
electric sites in the public do
main and which was admins
tered by Mckay as Secretary
of the Interior, is being as
sailed by Senator Morse for
"giveaways." The issue also is
of some consequence in the
State of Washington where
Gov. Langlie is the defender
of the administration policy.
In c a / f or n a, Senator
Thomas Kuchel, Republican
incumbent, is being closely
pressed by the Democratic
candidate. dynamic and ag-
gressive Richard Richards.
AS Of now, the Eisenhower
Stevenson battle in California
and Washington is reported
nip-and-tuck, with a slight
edge given to the President in
both. Oregon is regarded as
safe for the President.

thoughtfulness that preceded
the decision to continue aid
to Tito, unless such apologies
are heard from our leftist
liberals" who are always will
ing to do or say anything for
a Communist if only to keep
him relatively docile.
Aid from the United States
for Tito had its beginnings in
the defiance the Yugoslav die
tator shouted at Moscow in
1948. The old Kremlin regime
Of Stain promptly liquidated
all Tito'S friends and suspected
friends in central and eastern
Europe, and inaugurated a war
to the death against TitoiSm.
Under those circumstances, it
was very understandable why
some of our highest diplomats
and military men should view
as wise the strengthening Of
Tito, or any other thorn in the
Russian side.
But even then. and increas-
ingly since then, there have
been voices of warning. The
folly of aiding any Communist,
just because, for the moment,
he appeared to be opposed to
Moscow'S immediate plans,
was apparent to any thinking
person. Fortunately for us.
there have been stalwart
American voices raised in the
Senate and the House to call
attention to this fallacious de-
votion to freedom and princi-
pie. They have not succeeded in
cutting off aid to the Tito Red
regime. but they have at least
Jared well enough to arouse the
American people to the risks
involved.

dental candidate are Admiral
Lewis Strauss. Atomic Energy
Commission chairman; Secre-
tary of State John Foster
Dulles, and Secretary of De-
Tense Charles E. Wilson.
The Presidents sensitivity
to the issue broke out in other
directions. He mentioned it
briefly in his speech in Min
neapolis and at Seattle he
departed from his prepared
speech to defend his admins
tration's record on the atom.
He said the administration
had asked all people of the
world to cooperate in develop
ment of peaceful uses of the
atom. But. with a gesture of
emphasis, he declared the
United States would refuse to
stop H-bomb tests alone and.
unless other nations joined.
I'VE are going to stay strong"
Otherwise the President
eXuded an air of supreme con-
fidence in his speeches, and
adopted a bantering and satiri-
cal attitude toward his OPP
ponents, a looking-down-at-
the-noSe cockiness. This at
titude expressed itself in such
phrases as "anguished poll
ticians" and "the angry hum of
a locust-swarm of partisan
orators"
With that, he entered sweep
ing claims to credit for pros
perity, peace and social re-
forms that he had adopted
from the Roosevelt-T Truman
New Deal-Fair Deal regimes.
His description of how "your
Government presses forward
it's attack on slums and
big h t e d neighborhoods"
sounded a bit like hyperbole
to anyone who had watched
the blockade raised against
slum clearance and public
housing by Republicans in
Congress.

CONSTANTINE BROWN
Belgrade Comment on Continuance

The reaction of Yugoslavia,

hover to continue economic aid

Belgrade comment on the
Am erican decision really
amounted to a scolding for

the thinking in Congress and

Uncle Sugar has grown more
