Dulles Meaning: Not BIuffing

when the Dulles warning saved
the day.
There is In the life" arr

tation by Mr.. Dulles. which
was unfortunate. He Is quoted
as saying: 1.-THE ability to get
to the verge without getting
into the war is the necessary
art. II you cannot master it.
you inevitably get into war;
Now this is an ambiguous
sentence and might well have
been revised If there had been
time. It could mean that there
is artifice about diplomacy and
that going up to the edge is
really q matter Of intentional
blum. But the Secretary did
not mean this at all. What he
had in mind was covered in
the sentence: You have to
take chances for peace. just
as you must take chances for
war"
Mr.. Dulles Is eternally right
that miscalculation by the
aggressor Is what brings on
war. This error by the Kaiser
in 1914 and by Hitler in 1899
caused o world war in each
case. The Dulles concept
shared by President Eisen-
hower-is that "bluffing" leads
to war and you have to show
clearly you will fight in order
to prevent the enemy from at
lacking. Appeasement never
pays.
Why did Mr.. Dulles author
ize the article at this time?
For two reasons-one the
recent article in Harpers mag
azine by former Secretary Of
State Dean Acheson, which in
effect accused the administra-
ton of "bluffing" and the other
was a desire to inform the
world that the Democratic
Party spokesman have not
been speaking for America In
limiting that this country has
adopted a policy Of "biuff."
Mr.. Dulles is entitled to the
right to reply to Mr.. Acheson's
unfounded attacks. That's
why Mr.. Dulles was receptive
to the idea and that's why the
article in its introduction says.
Dulles direction of United
States foreign affairs Is under
attack these days as the pres
idential campaign gets under

agree to- any truce at all, and

Failure of Our Foreign Policy

Defeats must be presented
as victories, retreats as prep.
arations for advances, and
Illustrations as due to the
Vaccinations of the wicked at
home or abroad.
So while Mr.. Pearson OF
Canada makes dry and eau
tious thrusts in Look, Mr.
Dulles blossoms out in Life to
prove that the President and
he have ayerted three world
wars--a claim that. Of course.
no one can possibly prove
and. as a result, wins sour re-
actions from our greatest
friends abroad.
Mr.. Dulles is an honorable
man and an able one. His aims
are good; they are even noble.
But Mr.. Dulles is not equipped
with antennae. He has no idea
Of how his words--his choice
Of them-set others teeth on
edge.
The failure of our foreign
policy, insofar as 1t is failing.
is an intellectual failure. A
successful policy requires for
its planning a different kind Of
brains and temperament than
this Government Cor Its pred
ecessor) has sought to bring
into its counsels--those Of the
historian. the sociologist. the
discriminating formulator Of
thought into fresh and precise
definition, the clarifier.
Il is in the international
political and theological field
not the military--that we are
losing our battles. And It Is not
necessary. The fault lies
neither In our stars nor In the
Kremlin, but in our approach.

lasting peace in Asia Is i'm
possible"
For good measure the Soviet
spokesman added: why does
the United States continue 10
occupy Taiwan and the on
shore islands which legally be-
long to China? They must be
given back to their rightful
owner. Millions Of people In al
countries demand It,"
Those familiar with the So
Wet diplomatic techniques con-
slider the words of Comrade
Leontyey as the opening gun
to influence the American
British parley In Washington.
There is complete biparti-
sanship in Britain on the ques-
ton Of recognizing the Peiping
government as the only legal
representative Of the Chinese
people.
The fact that Communist
China stands branded as an
aggressor by the U.N and the
fact that the Peiping regime
has been infringing not only
all international regulations
but also ordinary humane laws
is Of little consequence to those
who believe that expediency,
not morality, is the only way
out In international affairs.
The British realize that the
question Of Communist China's
aggressiveness is far more i'm
portant to the American peo-
pie than to the other powers.
We became engaged in a
very costly war to save South
Korea not only for moral but
also for strategic reasons.
When the Red stack oc-
CURED on June n, 1850. Pres
ident Truman and his advisers

which ultimately became a

cause it was realized that the
fall Of South Korea would
mean an immediate and direct
Communist threat on Japan
and on all our defenses In the
Pacific.
We spilled the blood Of more
than 10000 Americans and
spent upward Of SIT billion
