THE DEFENSE SCENE
Victory for Austerity

President Eisenhower's massive
prestige as the oracle on American
defense policy was put to the test
in the House Of Representative
last week 1t emerged more massive
than ever.
An assortment OF Cassandras.
most of them Democrats, have been
warning since January that the
Pentagon is operating perilously
close to the brink Of inadequacy.
especially in the development of
long-range air power sufficient to
deter Soviet aggression. But the
House Of Representatives demon
strated last Thursday afternoon the
difficulties confronting advocates of
any increased spending in this cleo
ton year, with General Of the
Armies Dwight David Eisenhower,
the mastermind OF Normandy, in
the White House.
First the House shouted down an
amendment calling for expenditure
OF an additional 81 billion for B-52s,
the intercontinental Jet bombers
which Strategic Air Command Gen.
Curtis E. LeMay complained two
weeks ago were already seriously
outnumbered by comparable Soviet
planes.
Then the lower house approved,
by an impressive 1910 roll call
vote. the administrations 1896
billion defense appropriation. In
cluded was an Air Force appropria-
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-05-13

ton Of SIS billion, an "austere"
amount which career military men
say they can live with for one year.
The final House-approved figure
gave President Eisenhower all but
an insignificant fraction OF what he
asked for. The bill now goes to the
Senate.
On the Senate side of Capitol
Hill. defense appropriations hear
ings were just beginning. High De-
Tense Department officials seized on
new Eisenhower word-"ade-
quate"-to describe this years de-
Tense budget request.
But Secretary Of the Air Force
Donald A. Quarles repeated his
warning that next year will be diff
ferent. One-shot savings. which are
helping the administration tide over
this election year, will not be avail
able next spring. he said.
There we're no estimates on how
much higher the Air Force request
would be next year. But consider
ing that the rock bottom" request
was pared $2.5 billion this year, the
minimum next year could reason
ably be expected to be SIS billion
more, or roughly $40 billion.
Since the other services, both
Army and Navy, also hope to get
considerably more next year, it
seemed possible that the fiscal
year 1858 budget request would top
$40 billion.

The Outlook

Valuable as Senator George will
be in the NATO post, his impending
departure from Congress means
that President Eisenhower will face
a vexing problem II he wins another
four years in the White House.
II the Democrats keep control OF
the Senate next year--as is quite
possible--Senator Georges replace
ment as chairman of the Foreign
Relations Committee is slated to
be 8S-year-old Senator Theodore
Francis Green. An internationalist,
Senator Green could be expected to
support those parts Of Republican
administration program that are
traceable to the -Acheson
policy. But he would not be likely
to provide the strong shoulder on
specific projects nor the active as
sistance in framing policy that Sem
ator George supplies.
Next in line to Senator Green on
the committee is Senator j. William
Fulbright, brilliant, world-minded
Arkansan, who has no noticeable
admiration for Secretary Dulles and
the Eisenhower foreign policy He
can be expected to be more vocal
and more infiuential-than in the
past. Still deeply resentful OF Re-
publican "appeasement" charges
in the past. his approach to Eisen-
hover administration programs is
likely TO be far cry from the
friendly interest of Senator George.
On the Republican side. President
Eisenhower has q number Of staunch

Middle East:
Chain Reaction

United Nations Secretary General
Dag Hammarskjold last week pub
lished a detailed report on his
month-long mission to the Middle
East, in which he re-established an
Arab-Israel cease-fire. The guns
have been more than routinely
quiet. although not entirely so. in
the fortnight since he left.
Mr.. Hammarskjold warned the
big powers away from the area, and
announced as one Of his major
accomplishments the return of
complete control of the situation to
the parties directly concerned -
Israel on the one hand and Egypt,
Jordan. Syria and Lebanon on the
other.
The U. N. secretary general made
no claim to having settled the
fundamental problems. But he said
these cannot be tackled Immediately.
He stressed that the outside world
must be patient in waiting for Arab
and Israel moves to consolidate the
armistice. One of these may be a
voluntary withdrawal from borders
in sensitive areas.
He went into great detail to ex-
plain his basis for claiming that both
sides have renowned their right to
retaliate. He also stressed that the
only condition on the "uncondi-
tional" cease-flre agreements he OBJ
tanned was that providing each coun-
try the right to self-defense.. This
right, he contended, could not
legally" be invoked, however. ex-
cept after the U. N. Security Coun-
Gil had found due cause for going
into acton.
Judging by the sporadic incidents
last week neither the Arabs nor the
Israelis indorse his theory.
Mr.. Hammarskjold admitted in
his report that the final settle
ment is probably still far off" but
he preferred to be optimistic:
IF we have previously expert
enced chain reactions leading to a
continuous deterioration of the sit
uation, we may now have the pos
sibility of starting a chain of reac-
tons in the opposite direction"
The Security Council was expected
to delay until next week a meeting
to discuss his report.

son. like President Eisenhower, is
a cardiac patient, and his candi-
dacy would demolish what Demo-
Gratis regard as a major 1866 issue
the Presidents health.
A big issue in the Texas wrangle
was segregation-Gov. Shivers had
attacked Senator Johnson's failure
to sign the Southern Manifesto"
the credo for segregationists which
was circulated among Southerners
in Congress. For this reason. the
johnson victory was also victory
for moderation. and therefore to
some extent for Adlai Stevenson,
1865 original moderate. Mr. Ste
venson is the choice of Speaker
Sam Rayburn. who as Senator
Johnson's mentor, Is the man who
really calls the shots in Texas.
But if the Chicago convention
becomes a deadlock, the most likely
beneficiary of Senator Johnson's Sc
delegates would be Senator Stuart
Symington. at present the fastest
runner among the dark horses.
Should Mr.. Stevenson be elimi-
mated, there would remain Senator
Estes Kefauver, New York Gov.
Averell Hartman and Senator
Symington. OF these three, there
is little doubt but that Senator
johnson would throw his strength
to Senator Symington.

The Decision

Senator George arrived at his
decision not to run agonizingly.
Last December 20 he had an
nounced that he would be a candi-
date, and as late as six weeks ago
he had fatty denied a report that
he would retire. Some years of be-
