the directors confused or mis-
guided in their planning. the
head Of the branch can do
little TO help the organization
to prosper.
Mr.. Dulles has been and
stili is criticized for "irre-
sponsible" utterances such
as "aeonizing reappraisal"
regarding our Western Euro
pean allies: brink Of war;
his strong backing Of our
policies in the Far East by
deeds and words, and finally
his recent warning to Russia
that her territory will not
remain q privileged sane
tuary" II she attacks Turkey.
He meant everything he said.
Mr.. Dulles induced the
President and the National
Security Council to dispatch
four carriers ut the time
when the Chinese Com
munists were attacking Diem
Bien Phu In Indo-C China In
1854. The disaster Of the
surrender Of the French
forces might have been
prevented II our planes had
gotten into action. But the
faint-hearted French them
selves decided at the 18th
hour that they did not want
that kind Of support from
US and asked that the
carriers be withdrawn.
Mr.. Dulles intended TO have
q re-evaluation Of our assist
ance to the Western allies
who were dragging their feet
in the common task Of mill
tary preparedness, but other
minds prevailed on him TO
give up that plan. His warm
ings Is months ago about our
being on the brink Of war
could be confirmed by the
present developments in the
Middle East and other areas.
He was the main advocate
Of the treaty with the Chi
nese Nationalist government,

uge in Formosa against az
aggression from the main-
land.
Mr.. Dulles concept Of pre-
venting the UssR from en-
tering the Middle East
through the so-called Eli
senhower doctrine appears to
have misfired because eco
nomic help and promise Of
support against aggression
failed to impress the Arabs
at a time when the Soviets
were pushing in that area
with energy which we would
not match.
The State Departments
wishes to carry on our poll
cies officially. That means
that our diplomats and other
agents are in no position TO
adopt the same means of
bribery and corruption Of
high ranking officials as our
enemies are doing.
Those who have watched
the various officials who
have been in charge Of our
foreign affairs for more than
30 years rate Mr.. Dulles
despite his many drawbacks,
including lack Of a sense Of
humor-as one of the three
best Secretaries Of State. The
late Charles Evans Hughes
was probably the best and
most impressive. His prob
lens were. however, easy
since Americas responsible
ties in the l920s were negligi.

rated as the second most eff

vantage Of having Congress

DOROTHY THOMPSON

The Syrian government
and the Soviet Union have
accused Turkey and the
United States Of planning an
imminent armed attack on
Syria and In the United
Nations Syria has asked for
a thorough investigation.
The Soviet charge was first
made in Moscow TO James
Reston. reporter for the New
York Times, by Nikita Khru-
shchev, who told him that he
had positive documentary"
evidence that the United
States was melting Turkey
to war, warning that should
Syria be attacked Russia
would go to her aid. Mr..
Reston expressed himself as
"flab bergasted" by the
charge.
Turkey has complained of
hostile Syrian troop move
ments on her border, indi-
eating the possibility Of q
Syrian attack, backed and
melted by Turkeys northern
neighbor, Russia, and the
United States has reiterated

to start off the Fall Dessert pa
rade, than by serving Ginger
Dessert Squares.
Fragrant with ginger, cinnamon
and molasses, this dessert is an
easy one to make. It requires no
great skill, and good results are
guaranteed when you use self
rising flour in the recipe. Salt and
baking powder are already in
self-rising flour, so there's no
possibility of misunderstanding the
leavening.
Keep this point in mind when
you buy flour. You can save time
and bother by buying self-rising
flour for biscuits, mullins, and
other baked products that use
baking powder. Just omit the
salt and baking powder from your
recipe when you use self-rising
flour.
