CIeorinq Up a Mystery

1t is gratifying to know that the
Federal Bureau of Investigation has
cleared away most of the mystery sur
rounding the vicious acid binding of
Victor Riesel, crusading labor writer. With
the arrest of two ex-convicts in New York
City, the FBI has disclosed that the actual
thrower of the acid, well-known hood
lum, already has paid for his crime.
Ironically, he was marked for death by
some of the acid which he threw at Mr..
RieSel in an apparent plot to prevent the
labor columniSt's appearance before a
racket-investigating grand jury. Scared
when the soaring liquid Splattered on his
own face, the attacker, one Abraham
Teli, became too "hot" for gangland to
protect. He was shot to death on New
York street late last month.
But the FBI managed to pick up the
trail of Telvi and of his associates and to
solve the case. The agents now have in
custody half dozen persons, including
the alleged finger man" and the "front
man" for still unknown principal, be-
lieved to have master-minded the assault.
Until this key conspirator is captured the
RieSel case cannot be listed as closed. We
hope the FBI will be as successful in
identifying and arresting this master
mind as it was in rounding up the hired

West Germony's Reds


It is understandable that West Ger
manys Independent newspapers have
sharply questioned the wisdom of the
Federal Constitutional Court in its de-
cision to outlaw the Communist Party and
all fellow travelling front organizations.
The main point of criticism is certainly
a valid one-namely, that the ruling may
have the effect of merely "martyrizing"
the Reds, driving them underground and
thus making it more difficult for the
Bonn Republic to cope effectively with
them.
This criticism is further supported by
the fact that West Germany's Com
munists have within recent years suffered
a striking decline in strength. In the
1858 general elections, for example, they
polled little more than 900 votes
(about per cent of the total) as against
almost IA million in 1949, and they failed
to win a single seat in the BundeStag,
the lower house of the Bonn Parliament.
Since then, moreover, there have been no,
indications that they have been able to
improve their poor political position;
instead, the probability is that they have
continued to lose ground in terms of
ballots. Hence, to that extent at least,
the critics can make rather persuasive
case against the courts decision.
But the court-which is West Ger
many'S highest tribunal-haS certain
things to be. said in its favor. In the
first place, it had to pass Judgment on
the Adenauer governments charge, as
filed four years ago, that the Communists
were bent on overthrowing the Bonn
democracy and replacing it with Marx
list dictatorship. In the second place,
there can be no doubt that the charge
was and is true. Accordingly, in that re-
spect, the judges ruling is altogether
logical. And it may have the additional
value of enabling the Federal authorities
to take sound protective measures against
the potentially menacing fact that the
Reds, who are really the Kremlin's agents,
have been busily operating many hun
dreds of subversive cells in industrial
plants throughout free Germany.
AS a practical matter, of course, it
can still be argued that West Germany
like the United States, for instance
should be able to counter the threat posed
by the Communists without outlawing
them in a way that might actually in
crease their underground effectiveness.
Yet this is problem whose nature varies
from country to country in the free
world, and what may be sound procedure
for us is not necessarily sound procedure
for others. Americans can be reasonably
sure that the Adenauer government and
the Federal Constitutional Court have in
this instance done what seems to them
to be best for German freedom

Peace, Prosperity-ond Ike!

The G. o. P. faithful are converting
today In San Francisco'S Cow Palace But
their get-together, If one may adapt
phrase from Adlai Stevenson, Is not at all
likely to spark, fame and give of new
ideas.
There may be minor tussle over the
Republican civil rights plank. And Harold
Stassen, armed with new poll, is still
trying to draw bead on Vice President
Nixon.
On opening day, however, there is no
evidence that Mr.. Stassen'S chances have
improved at all. The new poll, as Mr..
StaSSen interpretS 1t, indicates an 8 per
cent loss in votes If Mr. Nixon Is on the
ticket instead of Governor Herter. In adj,
dition, 1t seems somewhat more detailed
than his earlier private poll. But Mr..
EtaSSen's new poll has run head-on into
poll offered by Senator Styles Bridges
which, If it proves anything, proves that
an INSTRUMENTATION ticket would be
much stronger than an Eisenhower
Herter ticket. Furthermore, the implica-
tions of the Stassen poll are controyerted
by the implications of recent Gallup
poll and recent Trendex poll Finally,
even If Mr.. Stassen's findings are taken
at face value and interpreted most I'M
favorably to Mr. Nixon, an Eisenhower
Nixon ticket still would win the November
election by comfortable margin. In
view of all this, it will be the political
Surprise of the century if Mr.. Stassen gets
even close to first base when he comes to
bat this week in the Cow Palace.

Frisco: Take Notice

There is something about political
conventions that makes people thirsty
and hungry-and more SO than at other
kinds Of conventions. In Chicago, for
example 1t was estimated that the DEM
ocrats pushed the beverage dollar sales
up by 1876 per cent and the food sales up
185 per cent, compared with ordinary
convention spending. Furthermore, the
trade concentrated on the high-priced
food and drink Steaks outsold ham
burgers by 1900 to 400 daily in one group
of Stockyard restaurants, and cocktails
for money outdistanced colas for free.
And II Republicans spend as easily as
Democrats, San Francisco should be
happy to learn that the tipping was
generous. AS far as supplies were con-
cerned, the San Franciscans might learn

Mr.. Tydings Withdrows

Willard Tydings' withdrawal from the
Senate race in Maryland may be an inn
portant factor in the close fight expected
this fall for control of the 85th Congress.
For the veteran Democrat from Havre de
Grace was a strong candidate-deter-
mined to even the score with his 1850
conqueror, Republican Senator Butler,
and probably Offering his party its best
chance in the past 10 years to win
Statewide election. Since control Of the
next Senate may turn upon single con-
test, 1t is understandable that Republican
leaders already are expressing increased
optimism about Senator Buffers chances
and the prospects for regaining the Sem
ate leadership.
Meanwhile, although Mr.. Tydings'
long illness had prompted speculation
that he might eventually withdraw, the
action itself leaves the Democratic Party
in Maryland still divided factionally. 1t
is situation that has contributed ma
terially to the long string Of Democratic
defeats in the State and another intra-
party fight now for the nomination is not
likely to improve their prospects. The
State Central Committee will meet this
week to make the choice and the jockey
ing among at least four aspirants already
is in full swing.
AS for the personal element in Mr.
Tydings' withdrawal, 1t is unfortunate
that the former Senator is unable to at
tempt his desired comeback. In his long
years Of public service, he had demon
strated himself to be~a forceful cam
paigner and an able office-holder. 1t is,
however, in keeping with his sense of re-
sponsibility for public Office that he has
accepted the advice of his doctors that he
would not be able to campaign or perhaps
to serve in effective and unrestricted
fashion.

In Memory's Dream

1t seems startling thing that Ireland's
beautiful Lakes of Killarney have sud
denly passed into the hands of foreign
owner after having belonged to the Ken
mare family over there for the past 4OO
years or so. But death and taxes-espe-
cially the latter-apparently have made
their sale advisable and so they are now
the property of an American. He is ].
Stuart Robertson of Boca Ration, Florida.
And since he is modern businessman,
who has engaged in at least one financial
transaction involving very fancy hotel,
fears have been expressed that he may
give his new holdings face-lifting that
would ruin their sweet and ancient charm.
Mr.. Robertson, however, has been quick
to reassure everybody that he has no
intention of exploiting his property in
way that would run counter to the tradi-
tions surrounding it or detract in the
slightest from the loneliness of the place.
And he has given special force to his
statement by pointedly suggesting that
he and Ireland have sort of kith-and-
kin relationship. He himself has lived
there, and his father before him, though
born in Scotland, moved to County Kill
kenny as youngster and dwelt there as
a good Irishman until emigrating to
America to make his fortune. So there
is little reason to have 4misgivings about
the future of the Lakes Of Killarney and
the pretty islands that they embrace, in
GLIDING the stored Innisfallen. At any
rate, it is Mr.. Robertson's personal guar
antee that they will continue to remain
unchanged and unchanging, offering the
same sort Of enchantment as moved
Thomas Moore to write, long ago, these
heartfelt lines:
Sweet Inntsfalen. long shall diCeH
In memory's dream that sunny smile,
Which Ger thee on that evening fell,
When first saD thy fairy isle.
