Vireinion Named
In H-Bomb Leak

HONOLULU, July 80 o.
The Air Force yesterday identi-
fed Airman jackson H. Kilgore,
81, Meadowview, Va, as the man
being investigated in a news
leak to the Honolulu Star Bulle-
tin that the May 81 H-bomb drop
at Bikini missed its target.
An Air Force spokesman here
says charges are up to Airman
Kilgore's commanding officer at
Eniwetok. The airman was re-
turned to Eniwetok July % with
results of the investigation.
Airman Kilgore, a helicopter
mechanic, was on Eniwetok for
the first time during the recent
blast tests.
The Star-Bulletin on June Is
said a test technician" had
stated that the May 81 test bomb
missed its target. The next day
Secretary Of the Air Force
Donald Quarles confirmed it with
an announcement that "due to

figure by more than half a billion
dollars.
Air Fore Request Exceeded
Democrats succeeded in getting
into the bill 5000 million more
than the President asked for the
Air Force. But his defense money
requests we're cut in some other
respects.
The final total in the military
bill. $34,656, 900, 900, represented
more than half of all appropria-
tons in the 1856 session.
The $66,72O. 100000 in appro-
priations at the recent session
does not mean that spending will
come out at this figure when the
fiscal year ends June 30. 1857.
Some of the spending in this
bookkeeping year will be out of
appropriations from prior ses-
sions. And some of the allot-
ments voted at the 1856 session
will not be spent until later fiscal
years.
Secretary of the Treasury
Humphrey has estimated spend
ing for the current fiscal year
will total $65,900, 100000.
But Senator Byrd. Democrat OF
Virginia, chairman Of the Senate
Finance Committee predicted the
spending total will be consider
ably higher.

Y. Waste of the Taxpayers; Money

reliance and family savings
are discouraged at a time of
record-breaking prosper ity.
when is personal thrift to be-
come logical?
Looking at the record of the
84th Congress the wonder is
that so little was revealed in
the press about the obvious
raids on the Federal Treasury.
One reason is that the peo-
pie who know most about the
projects don't like to line up
against the sponsors or those
who stand to benefit flnau-
cially from the proposals. The
local chambers of commerce
either remain silent or plug
for the appropriations that
benefit their localities directly.
Also in Congress whoever votes
for a project in his own dis
trict or State is reluctant to
criticize the other fellows
favorite scheme.
Certainly the 84th Congress
followed a system of close con-
troll by a coterie of Democratic
leaders in both houses who
arbitrarily determined what
should or shouldn't come to a
vote. Not since the days of
Speaker Cannon has such dis
cipline been enforced on the
members of the House-and
lots Of them knew their pet
projects would get nowhere
unless they obeyed the leaders
and went along with the
crowd"
Congress spends loosely
when the people are indiffer-
ent. And they are Indifferent
because they are uniformed.
This is a domain in which the
fright to know" crusaders
could do a great deal of good.
Taxpayers revolts seem to
be the logical answer, but they
cannot be effective without the
facts. Maybe some day a pub
lic-spirited foundation not so
much interested in protecting
the civil liberties" of Com
munists and their dupes will
put up a million dollars a year
to analyze Federal spending
and turn a Searchlight on the
darkness that surrounds the
waste of taxpayers money. For
this Congress, nurtured by New
Deal and Fair Deal ideas, really
did make some kind of a record
it gave away more money
than ever before and it post
poned, If it didn't actually
prevent, any sizable reduction
in income taxes for years and
years ahead.

passive if "colonialists want to
force their will against legiti-
mate nationalist aspirations"
They have had hand in every
war and eruption from Korea
to the present guerrilla activi-
ties of the Arabs in North
Africa.
The Western allies will hesi-
tate to bring the Suez matter
before either the United Ma
lions Security Council or the
international Court of Justice
at The Hague. This hesitation
is not due so much to the slow
ness Of the judicial processes,
but to the dangerous POSSIBLE
ity that the Muscovites would
then raise the question of the
Dardanelles and the Panama
Canal at the same time that
the Suez Canal is being dis
cussed. And neither we nor
our allies can afford such
highly controversial subjects.

has proceeded from the theory
that possession is nine-tenths
of the law. They waited until

Mr.. Nixon and the Vice Presidency

abandon Mr.. Nixon as long as
their opponents can claim that
Mr.. Nixon is the Presidents
sole choice. The President has
consistently indicated that he
would be delighted to run
again with Mr.. Nixon. He has
responded to newsmen, with
one of his rare outbreaks Of
temper, that he would never
ditch" Mr.. Nixon-and that he
certainly will not do it. But he
has never said that he would
ditch everybody else.
BY the time this column ap-
pears the President may have
spoken. But I think it would
be out of line with his usual
behavior to cast the decisive
vote. He does not need to do
so. Without "ditching" Mr..
Nixon, he can indicate willing
ness to let the convention
decide.
And it would be extremely
unwise, it seems to me, to do
anything else from the view
point of the forthcoming cam
paign. For if Mr.. Nixon ap-
pears on the ticket as the
Presidents "hand-picked"
candidate, then the President
and Mr.. Nixon become insep-
arabic.
The Democrats long to run
against Mr.. Nixon. The Demo-
cratic candidate, whoever he
may be, can say that the Presi-
dent ditched the admirable
Gov. Herter. The Democrats
then can set out to defeat Mr..
Nixon and the rightists who,
they will say, have taken ad-
vantage of a noble but not
too-well President. And Harry
Truman's give 'em hell" tao
tics, extremely effective if di-
rected against anyone except
a popular hero, can erupt
again.

u. S. Diplomats Believe Soviet Russia

ahead with such a gigantic
project.
1t is equally noted here by
those who consider Nasser's
arbitrary decision To be the re-
suit of a meeting of minds of
Shepilov, Tito and Nehru that
although the USSR had in the
past bid against the West to
build the Nile dam, it became
lukewarm after our rejection.
The Interpretation in Wash
ington is that this equivocation
on the part Of the Soviets,
which are always quick at
promising even when they can
not deliver. was horseplay to
permit NaSser to deal this last
severe blow to the Western ma
tons.
Regardless Of what appeal to
international justice which
Britain and France may make,
it is certain that the prestige
Of our allies, with whom our
own is so closely identified,
has suffered another severe
blow, particularly among the
peoples in the Balkans, North
Africa and the Middle East.
They still respect power rather
than theology and the i'm
provement of mankind.
And it is highly unlikely
that Britain and France, after
going through some bombastic
gestures, would want to use
power to recover their rights
to control the Suez Canal for
IL more years until the present
long-term lease arrangement
expires.
France is up to her neck in
trouble in North Africa. Britain
is not in a position to use the
the remainder of her power
in the eastern Mediterranean
because it may spark another
world war.
The British, like ourselves,
know that the Soviets would
welcome trouble in the Middle
East and will not remain i'm

Soviet diplomacy scored an
other bull's-eye when Egyptian
President Nasser surprised the
Western world with his seizure
of the Suez CANAAN inter-
national waterway Of vital
Importance to the Western
coalition.
While chancellories in Wash
ington, London and Paris
reeled at the blow to their
political solar picks. the con-
Sensus among our diplomats
is that the coup was mounted
in Moscow and Belgrade and
executed in Cairo.
1t is recalled that Soviet
Foreign Minister Shepilov
visited the Egyptian capital a
few weeks ago. Following this
visit Nasser went into a huddle
with Yugoslavia's Tito and In
dia's Nehru on the island Of
Brioni in the Adriatic.
The communiQue issued af-
ter the conference of those
three supporters of the Krem-
Inns policies was not particu-
larry Informative. But it is
conjectured here that the mat
ter of nationalizing the Suez
Canal, which links the Medi-
terranean with the Indian
Ocean and is still the most
strategic line of communica-
ton Of the British Common
wealth. must have been dis
cussed and approved.
It is also regarded as a
strange coincidence that
shortly after the Brioni con-
ference Nasser, who in the past
was only lukewarm to the
American-British proposal to
help his country build the
Aswan dam, suddenly changed
his mind and told Washington
and London that he would
accept our assistance.

More Than Personal Issues Involved;
It's Battle of Rightists vs.. Leftists

If Richard Nixon were run
ming for President against
Adlai Stevenson, polls show
that Mr.. Stevenson would win.
The Republicans won in
1852 because their candidate
was Gen. Eisenhower, a figure
so famous that he could have
won on either ticket, and had,
in fact, his choice between
them. He won because many
persons, normally Democrats,
crossed the line, and because
he had the support of indie
pendents.
The old line Republicans did
not want Mr.. Eisenhower. They
wanted nationalism, not in
ternationalism, a reduction of
spending, unrestrained anti
Red" action, and a sharp
check on labor. They accepted
Gen. Eisenhower with reluc-
lance, and only after a bitter
fight.
The President thus entered
Office with a party divided into
right and left factions. In
office, he has steered a course
between them. but his weight
and influence have always put
him, in the party, a little left
OF center. In Congress his poll
cies have often been opposed
by rightist Republicans and
supported by liberal Demo-
Gratis.

How can the American peo-
pie get the whole story of what
really happened in the 84th
Congress which has just
ended? How can they protect
themselves in the future
against wanton betrayal of
the public interest by an ex-
travagant Congress?
For despite all the boasts
about the fine record" and
the speed with which many
laws were passed, the truth
is this was a "give-away"
Congress unprecedented in
history. There was a supreme
indifference to the fact that
there are limits to what the
taxpayer can afford. No atten-
~tion was paid to the prospect
that the burdens imposed in
theses times will prove I'M
bearable in a period of econo-
mic recession.
Most notorious in this ses-
sion were the brazen examples
of LOG rolling"-the details by
which many members of Con-
gress support each others
projects on a plain basis of

appropriated for this fiscal
year but commitments were
authorized that will mean bill

but it does seem fantastic that
5000 million can be appro-
priated when there isn't even
a planned military project in
existence on which to spend it.
All this is happening at a
time when the American people
are paying the highest income

The 1856 total compares with
the previous four-year high of

year Of the new Republican
regime. The 1853 figure was well
below the budget submitted to

Vice President who is the
rightists' special pet.
AS long as President Eisen-
hover is at the helm, the Vice
President does not matter to
them. But with the Presidents
first, and severe, illness it be-
gan to matter a great deal,
and with his second their
anxiety mounted.
Now they fear that they may
lose in the 1856 convention
what they won in that of 1852,
this time over the issue of the
vice presidency.
There is nothing secret
about this. 1t has been in
tensively discussed privately
since the President was first
stricken nearly a year ago,
among Eisenhower Republic
cans and EiSenhower-Inde-
pendents. But no Republican
wanted publicly to raise doubts
about the Presidents continu-
ing capacities.
Even Democratic leaders
have recognized the delicacy
of tact involved. But the issue
was there, involving the inner
party balance of power. Bring
ing the issue into the open
was postponed and postponed.
But it had to come out before

wing was not simply to sur

piled to cutting down the
public debt, there could have
been a stable tax reduction
this year if the Congress had
decided to refrain from so
much spending. 1t could have
avoided at least SIS billion to
81 billion of extra spending.
Actually non-defense spend
ing has increased by about SIS
billion a year since the end
ing of the Korean War. AS
soon as armament expendi-
lures are cut down, Congress
thinks Of many ways to spend
what is saved.
Few members of Congress
went home this time without
something to which they could
point with pride-Government
money for their constituencies.
Some of the projects-like the
law to build new roads-re-
quired some taxes to be paid
by the users to help meet the
costs of construction, but
many of the projects are local
or regional and cannot be
justified as national. The idea
that local communities or
adjacent States should join
in paying for these improve
ments seems to a large extent
to have been ignored.
The spending for farm
groups was obviously political.
The farmers now get about
SIS billion a year from the
United States Treasury and
the "soil bank" may add an
other $1.2 billion.
