Communique on the Cold War

victory also for the sensible
leaders Of the Arab countries
and Israel who saw in Presi-
dent Eisenhower an impartial
leader-concerned only with
the avoidance of war and the
maintenance of peace.
Meanwhile. the understand
ing Of the American viewpoint
by the British and French peo-
pie Is growing. Unfortunately,
this is the time selected by
some members of Congress to
cut down the services of the
United States Information
Agency. Over the week end it
was announced from London
that the work of the American
agency inside Britain would
have to be curtailed for budget
reasons. Probably this will
happen also with respect to
France.
Shortsighted members Of
Congress have been asking
what the need is for informa-
ton services to those two coun-
tries. The answer in part Is
that most newspapers abroad
cannot afford to pay cable tolls
on the full texts Of Americas
statements of policy. The
United States Information
Agency provides these texts
free. Also 1t is important for
USIA to have representatives
on the spot to explain the
American viewpoint to editors
abroad. This effort cannot be
carried on by the State De-
partment. as it is a specialized
field requiring personnel
trained in that line Of work.
It is much better to keep 1t
separate from the rigid rules
Of the diplomatic service.
America could encounter
many defeats In the cold
war" II it doesn't keep up its
efforts to Offset the propa-
ganda Of the Communists,
which. incidentally, is very in
tensive inside Britain and
France. working constantly
with left wing" elements and
misrepresenting and distorting
the American viewpoint.
The cold war" is q new
game for America, and 1t is re-
grettable that so many menu
bers Of Congress haven't be-
gun to understand how eff
fective the Communists are in
1t, as witness. for instance.

AS the latest reports from
Taipei are pieced together it
seems that the actual reasons
for the violent anti-American
demonstrations are deeper than
they appear at first glance.
The immediate cause was
the court-martial acquittal Of
Sergt. Robert Reynolds who
had fatally shot a Chinese
peeping tom. But the crowds
which had gathered before the
z m b assy and eventually
wrecked 1t are suspected Of
having been melted by "dissi-
dents" against the rule of
Chang Kai-shek. They DELHI
erately created a major incident
directed at the United States,
1t is said, in the hope that he
would lose face and support
from Washington.
And indeed everything points
to the prospect that when the
question Of foreign aid to For
mosa comes UP in the Senate
next month there will be q
number Of avowed anti Chang
Senators who will take advan-
take Of last weeks outrages to
urge reconsideration Of aid to
Nationalist China.
The Republic of China is a
democracy. There is no press
censorship or control, and
there are at least two political
parties which oppose the
Kuomintang. While their lead
ers oppose some Of Chiang's
internal policies. they also APP
pear resolutely to support his
foreign policies. But there are
undercover dissidents who
have lost patience with their
exile from the mainland. De-
spite the repeated assurances
given publicly by the chief of
state that the time viii soon
come when he will return to
the mainland. they see no
chance that Washington win
approve Of such q military
step.
While the bulk Of the 10
million who live on Formosa
have full confidence In their
President and are willing TO
follow all his policies, there is

the doubt. The only real
handicap is the determination
Of the generalissimo to have
no truck with the enemy. And
the generalissiino is a tremen-
dously popular man with the
masses ip Taiwan. Thanks to
American support, the free
republic has made remarkable
strides in the economic, social
and military fields.
Nobody is hungry in For
mosa and nobody is rich. The
cabinet officers receive the
equivalent Of $50 q month. /
Even petty graft is rapidly
disappearing. But If by violent
actions. against the American
Embassy and insults to the
American flag sentiment in
the United States Congress
could be whipped UP to curtail
drastically economic and mill
tary assistance to the Chinese
Republic, CHA n g's position
might be considerably weak
ened.
In support Of the theory
that the violent outbreaks
were intended to harm the
head Of the free China Repub-
lie, it is pointed out that some
responsible Chinese officials In
Taipei must have known about
the intended demonstrations.
When Sergt. Reynolds and his;
family took of from the Taipei
airport. a police guard Of "a
men surrounded him to see
that no incidents occurred.
The authorities made such Q
display Of force because they
unquestionably knew that
something was brewing. The
Chinese intelligence service is
very much on the alert. Yet
only a couple Of policemen were
on hand when the mob began
to gather before the Embassy.
Why, it is asked, did the re.
sponsible authorities not take
the same precautions at the
Embassy as were taken at the
airport when it was known that
there had been strong agitation
in Taipei as a result Of the
verdict Of the American mill
tary court? -
There was more than ordi-
nary goofing. according TO some
Of the reports received In

There ought to be q daily
"communiuue" on the way the
cold war" is going-its vic
tories and defeats. This is how
the "communique" could be
written today:
(1) Victory for the Commu-
nists in Formosa: The anti
Am erican demonstrations
there were definitely organ
lied" in advance of the riots.
American officials in Formosa
now say the activity may have
been inspired by Chinese po-
litical elements on the island
anxious to make q deal with
Communist China. 1t was q
natural" for the Communists
to try to infiame the Chinese
on Formosa over the acquittal
of an American soldier who
killed a Chinese prowler out
side his home.
ca Victory for the Commu-
nists in the United States:
Demands are being heard that
American forces be withdrawn
from overseas Ito save money"
For several years now Mos
COW and Peiping have been be-
hind that strategy. The idea
Is being taken up now in the
American Congress, where cuts
in the budget may force the
Withdrawal Of at least one
army division from overseas
and possibly more. The Air
Force and Navy Of the United
States will also be weakened.
This is good news for Moscow.
CD Victory for the Commu-
nists in America: A drive is on
to cause America and Britain.
respectively. to stop the testing
of nuclear weapons even with
out any agreement in advance
that the Soviets will stop their
tests. This crusade has been
going on for several years
now-helped by millions Of
dollars being spent in propa-
ganda by the Soviets to infiu-
ence and dupe the American
and British peoples and par
ticularly the American Con-
eress. British Prime Minister
Macmillan and Foreign Secre-
tary Lloyd have publicly de-
nounced the scheme as Com
munist in origin, but Ameri-
cans are not yet fully alerted
to it.

Mideost Viewed as Only U. S. Victory
While Reds Succeed on Many Fronts

q world war has been averted,
is now becoming favorable to
the American viewpoint. Cyrus
Sulzberger. widely known as q
travelling correspondent for the
New York Times, who has
been studying the Middle East
and has been critical Of the
State Departments policy in
the past. says in q Paris dis
patch:
$50 far, our new Middle
Eastern policy seems to be
working remarkably well. In
varying degrees all the Arab
states but Egypt. and Syria
indicate appreciation Of the
Eisenhower doctrine or at least
Of its intentions. Israel well
comes its pacifying effect.
Moscow is visibly displeased.
Secretary Dulles, who
earned q full measure of blame
for past American ineptitude
in the area, deserves equal
credit for the speed with which
he has managed to stabilize
an unpromising situation.
Much, indeed, remains to be
done before any permanent
benefits can be measured. But
we appear tohave captured the
initiative"
The same dispatch says that
il els apparent that Syria's
hostile government Is weaken
Ing and Egypt's is nervously
conscious Of its isolation"
Yet only last February the
skeptics were criticizing the
Eisenhower doctrine. = and
many members Of Congress
voted reluctantly for 1t. Be-
lieving 1t would not be much
good.
Now the critics are silent.
Interest has turned away from
the achievement Of peace In
the Middle East. and all eyes
are on the Federal budget In
Congress. The change In the
Middle East. however, has been
truly sensational. Even many
Of the British and French who
thought it would have been
better to finish the fight"
at Suez now realize that this
would have meant endless
guerrilla warfare and q multi
plicity Of situations like those
that have caused the British
so much anguish and expense
in Cyprus and the French such
q headache in Algeria.
The victory for American
policy in the Middle East Is .
