Faced by the facts of life,
Col. Nasser will have to cease

This is what the British,

Hence. the whole problem
ceases to be an issue for war

comes a business proposition

his operation and refuse to
grant the demands of the

and come to an agreement.
The presence of allied war

a wise precaution in case Col.
NasSer should threaten any
harm to foreign citizens resi-
dent in Egypt, but military &C
ton is wholly unnecessary as
a means of settling the dispute
over how the canal shall be

This controversy is today,
and has all along been basic

solvable by economic pressure.
Col. Nasser needs the canal to
get revenue. The "users" need
the canal for economy'S sake.
But they want a showdown as
to whether they are to be sub

confiScation of their property
without a satisfactory plan of
compensation. The strike" of

transfer of the issue from the

Suez Tactics Injure Vests Prestige

wants to eat Republican crow
at this particular moment.
But if shooting does start,
with or without American aid,
assistance and/or agreement,
the cold facts are that the
United States could not re-
main long aloof. 1t is quite
true that American economy
does not need the canal to
survive. Indeed, the closing
of Suez would be a relatively
minor matter to United States
shipping. But the same can
not be said of the nations of
Western Europe.
At this point, the indications
are that the United States will
stand apart from any war
fare in Egypt and may even
publicly condemn the British
and French for aggression,
But the standing apart will be-
for a short period only. If the
British and French do not
quickly clean up Col. NasSer's
army and force him to back
track. the developing Arab and
neutralist aid and sympathy
for Egypt will in time force
us to take up the cudgels. And
in the existing world situation,
there can be little doubt that
we shall be forced to support.
however reluctantly, our allies.
Prime Minister Eden, facing
a stormy House of Commons,
has been described as consid-
erably confused by the United
States position. The result
of President Eisenhower's and
Mr.. Dulles words has been to
lend an air Of unreality to the
fortnight statements of the
British and the sabre-rattling
bombaSt of the French.
But the apparent determi-
nation of the Americans to stay
out of any war in Egypt is not
likely to deter effectively the
British and French if they are
determined to attack NasSer.
They know full well that the
United States cannot long dis
associate itself from the con-
f1ict, particularly if the Soviet
Union supports Nasser even on
a partial and unofficial basis.
So far in this Suez confu-
sion, there is precious little to.
be said in praise of the Vests
strategy and tactics. All has
been noise and fury, backing
and filling, and all costly to
the Vests prestige.

Republicans Start With Big Advantage
In Struggle for New York State Vote

NEW YORK. Sept. 14.-Re-
publicans start with an ad-
vantage in the struggle for
New York's heavy electoral
vote this fall.
Democrats must rely on the
greater city TO overcome the
upstate conservative G. o. P.
majorities. But this year both
President Eisenhower and the
Republican senatorial candi-
date, Acknowledgement Jacob
K. JavitS, have a formidable
appeal for the metropolitan
voter.
Internationalist business and
public information influences
which are centered here were
among the first to put forward
the Eisenhower candidacy in
1852 against the late Senator
Robert A. Taft. They feared
the Taft bias toward Midwest
nationalism. They expected the
World War II general to be in
ternationalist but a domestic
conservative, and he has not
disappointed them.
Now the State G. o. p, prob
ably under some pressure from
the pro- Eisenhower forces, has
nominated a bona f1de Repub-
lican liberal for the Senate seat
vacated by the invincible Her.
bert Lehman. This was not
achieved without a brief furry
of pro Communist charges
against Mr.. Javits of a sort
Democratic candidates are
sadly familiar with.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-09-14

But it was done. And lib
eral forces who backed Mr..
Javits for the House of Repre-
sentativeS and for Attorney
General are now simply not in
a position to attack him,
though they prefer the Demo-
Gratis in national elections.
To meet the Eisenhower
JavitS challenge, Democrats
have drafted their attractive
young new York Mayor, bearer
of the famous name of Robert

United States and Canada, and
presumably South America.
Since such exports would have
to be paid for in dollars, it is
safe to assume that Uncle
Sugar would have to assume a
large part of the ultimate
costs. Certainly few nations in
Western Europe are in a posi-
ton to pay for oil imports in
dollars.
Meanwhile, the British and
the eager-to-flght French are
set to go ahead with their
Users Association" by means
of which they apparently seek
to impose on Egyptian Pres
ident Nasser exactly the kind
of international control he has
insisted he will never tolerate.
Col. Nasser'S initial reaction
to the association scheme, first
announced in London by Prime
Minister Anthony Eden but
known to be essentially an
American idea, was to declare
fatty that any such attempt to
infringe the sovereignty of
Egypt would mean war. He
probably means it, too.
Secretary Dulles has shown
plainly that the United States
is fearful that this Users
Association" if it comes into
being, will be too much of a
big three" operation in the
eyes of the world. For that
reason, he has earnestly APP
pealed to other nations who
were a party to the 22-nation
London conference to asso-
ciate themselves with the new
project. 1t is safe to assume
that a few will: most will not.
If there is to be a war over
the Suez Canal, it will have to
be a French-British affair.
OF course, the United States,
too. eventually will be in it.
There is an understandable
reluctance right now to be
drawn into any size. shape or
manner of shooting war in
Europe, or in Africa or any,
where else. There happens to

on, and the administrators

There isn't the slightest
need to use military force to
win the Battle of Suez." 1t
isn't necessary TO risk human
lives. If the governments of
great Britain, France and the
United States choose to take
a lesson from the labor unions
and adopt one of their favorite
techniqueS, Col. Nasser will
find himself compelled to yield
to reason and a sensible settle
ment of the controversy.
In a sense, the British.
French and American state
ment just issued is a start in
that direction. For what the
three governments have done
is to form an organization of
users" In the vocabulary of
the industrial world, these are
analogous to the buyers.
Now, buyers can be persuaded
to employ the boycott. and
they can refuse to cross
picket line.
The picket lines" in this
case are at the entrance and
the exit to the Suez Canal
international waters. Egypt
remains the owner of only the
water inside the canal. She
is as sovereign" as are the
stockholders" of a company
in an industrial strike and
probably Just as helpless. For
the users" can be persuaded
not to use the canal-that is,
not to cross picket lines" until
satisfactory terms are obtained.
1t would not be necessary to
station warships on the
picket lines" to prevent any
commercial ships from using
the canal because enough of
the users" would themselves
respect the picket lines"
With a strike of the pilots 60
ing on, traffic would not be as
safe as before, anyhow.

Shipping Firms Could Be Persuaded
Not to Cross Canal Picket Lines

The "users" of the canal are
really the private shipping
companies. They can be Or
ganized for their own protec'
ton. They can stipulate the
conditions under which the
Suez Canal will or will not be
used. It doesn't need to be
a governmental body.
Thus. the power of decision
would pass into the hands Of
those who really can WELD
economic pressure.
If it turns out that the
Egyptian government. which
claims sovereignty" over the
canal. will not agree to let the
operation become a private
affair-between the shipping
companies and the canal COM
pany, which is to be entirely
owned by the Egyptian gov
eminent and to receive all
profits-then other means of
handling the traffic between
the Indian Ocean and the At
lantic Ocean will have to be
devised.
For one thing. if the Suez
Canal isn't to be efficiently
operated, there's not much use
in investors lending money to
Egypt to have it widened so
as to accommodate larger
tankers. 1t would be better to
put the money into the build
ing of huge tankers to carry
the oil around the Cape of
Good Hope. The American
government is considering a
plan to finance such a tanker
construction program. After
figuring the savings in tolls
and the time saved in putting
so much more in a single cargo
than ever before, the net result
might be such as to render
the Suez Canal superf1uous.
