Seventeen years ago Anthony
Eden was the shining young
knight of the free world.
He had defied the appeasement
policies of the Chamberlain gov
eminent in Britain, had beer
proved right, and had returned
as Winston Churchill's right
hand man in the conduct Of
World War II.
He looked like a matinee idol
He was suave. He acted like a
man who would never Jump no
matter what political firecracker
went of under his chair.
He was in line to become
Prime Minister when Britain
still headed great empire.
He had everything, including
a political experience second to
few except Sir Winston himself
When old Mr.. John Bull hac
to go, the free world was per-
fectly satisfied to see Sir An
thony pick up the reins. There
was no other man in Britain in
which it had such confidence.
But the man in the black
Homburg who looked so suave as
Foreign Minister was not SC
suave inside. His original prob
lens revolved chiefly around the
domestic economy, which in
postwar Britain has been enough
to floor most any man. Despite
his expert advisers, he developed
ulcers.
Things rocked along, however
with his party always display
ing complete political command
until browning defeat-his split
with the United States over
Middle Eastern policy.
The shining young knight, who
before the age of 40 had begun
a lifelong campaign for such
ideas as the League of Nations
and the United Nations, and fol-
the fundamental necessity OF
Anglo-American friendship and
cooperation, was pushed to the
wall by a series of British politi-
cal setbacks in the Middle East

Labor Leader GoitskeII
Urges General Election

CAMBRIDGE. Mass. Jan. 10
up. - Hugh Gaitskell, British
Labor Party leader, called for a
general election in Britain while
commenting on the resignation
Of Prime Minister Anthony Eden
yesterday.
Mr.. Gaitskell told reporters at
Harvard University:
II am sorry that Sir Anthony
Eden's health has not recovered
despite his trip to Jamaica.
He has done the right thing
In resigning. but as the whole
cabinet has publicly identified
themselves completely with the
foreign policy pursued by the
late government in the last three
months ] consider that there
ought now to be a general elec-
ton so that the country can
have an opportunity of choos-
ing a new government"
Mr.. Gaitskell is at Harvard tc
deliver a series Of three lectures
the final one Of which is SEIZED.
uled tonight.

there was no expression Of re-
greet at his decision to step down
Nor was there a tribute to his
dedication to peace, a customary
comment on such occasions.
The President referred to Sir
Anthony in his public statement
as IAN old and good friend of
mine and "a staunch believer
in the need for unity among the
community of free nations, espe-
cially between his country and
ours"
He concluded that Mrs. Ell
senhower and ! extend to- him
and to Lady Eden our hopes that
Sir Anthony will soon fully re-
cover his health so that he may
have many useful years of hap
piness ahead"
Secretary Dulles. unlike the
President. was regretful about
Sir Anthony's decision.
1T is a matter of deep regret, -
his two-paragraph statement be-
gan, that Sir Anthony Eden has
felt compelled to lay down the
arduous duties of his Office be-
cause Of health"
Expresses Admiration
Mr.. Dulles recalled his long
association with Sir Anthony at
international conferences. This
friendly association has been q
privilege to me and through it
l came to admire and respect
his ability and effective dedica-
ton to the cause of freedom in
the world and unity between
free nations" the Secretary
went on.
He added the hope that 1.-The
opportunity for a rest which
will now come to Sir Anthony
will assure him many years OF
happiness and the possibility OF
his continuing to contribute to
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-01-10

He refused to be drawn into
party politics, saying. I'VE have
this convention that we don't
attack the other party when
we are out of the country"
Asked how he felt a general
election might turn out, Mr.
Gaitskell said:
Il never believe in being a
prophet still less being COM
placent, but it is a fact that in
recent by-elections there has
been a swing away from the
Conservatives"
To a question Of what effect
Sir Anthony's resignation might
have on Anglo-American rela-
1tions, the Labor Party leader
said, II wouldn't like Anglo
american relations to be drawn
in any way. Anglo American
relations are far more important
than that"
Mr.. Gaitskell did not mention
Sir Anthony's resignation in his
second lecture last night.

France saw 1t as the beginning

American-supported pressure

They failed to GUST President

for him a position which before
the shooting was rapidly be-
coming untenable.
Sir Anthony, the suave, had
abandoned suavity. Sir Anthony,
the military Commander, had
been forced to retreat. Sir An
thony. the FRIEND of America,
was under a serious cloud.
Again he became(ill. Now he
has resigned, at an age 20 years
younger than his predecessor.
He had shot his way out of a
position where he had been ac-
corded great confidenceG
Yet he was once the shining
knight, the heir of Winston

quickly. He devoted his life to
the freedom-loving nations. and
despite his ultimate mistakes, he

Att|ee Is Silent
On Macmillan

IOWA CITY. Iowa, Jan. 10
up. - Clement Attlee. former
British Prime Minister, said
today II have no comment"
when asked for his observations
on the selection of Harold Mac
milan as the new First Minis
ter of Britain.
Mr.. Attlee. here for a State
University of Iowa lecture last
night, learned of Queen Eliza
beth's designation of Mr.. Mac
milan as Prime Minister just
before boarding train for
Chicago. Mrs. Attlee accom-
panied him.
The 73-year-old former leader
of the British Labor Party said
last night that If an election
were called in England he was
pretty sure" the Labor Party
would return to power. Mr..
Attlee has declined comment on
Sir Anthony Eden's resignation
except to say he didn't know
it would come at this time"
Sir Anthony and Mr.. Mac
milan are members of the Con-
sentative Party.

jority in the House and their
term has just over three years
to run.
Sir Anthony gave continuing
i'll health as his reason for quit
ting the post he had waited for
so long and held only 81 months.
But in Washington there was
a widespread feeling that his
resignation cleared the way for
"a substantial improvement in
relations between the British
and United States governments,
badly split over Sir Anthony

and the opposition of President
Eisenhower and Secretary OF
State Dulles to it.
Eisenhower Has no Regrets
Mr.. Eisenhower himself wished
Sir Anthony a speedy recovery
and many useful years of hap.

pressed no regret at the resigna.
ton.
The Liberal News Chronicle
expressed the belief that "the
task OF restoring lost confidence
among some of our allies abroad
will be considerably simplifiec
with new man at the helm
But the Conservative Daily
Sketch asked, lis the retirement
due in any degree to the pressure
and hostility of the United States
Governments" And said, IF the
people of Britain come to suspect
that this is true a wave OF
deep anger will sweep across the
whole country"
Better Egyptian Relations
The government-backed Al
Gumhurriya declared: instead
of Egypt's subjugation, Britain
has been humbled and instead
of the downfall of Egypt's presi-
dent. the British Prime Minister
has gone. Instead of Egypt being
starved, Britain has gone bank
rupt."
The. Egyptian government was
silent, but one course in close
touch with official circles in
Cairo said "you can bet your
last dollar" that British Egyptian
relations will improve.
The first Russian reaction
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-01-10

came from TasS, the official
Soviet news agency. In a dis
patch from London it attributed
Sir Anthony's fall to 1.-The
British-French military misad-
venture against Egypt, as well
as announcement of the So
called Eisenhower doctrine
which further undermines the
already weakened position of
British imperialism in the Near
and Middle East"
Technically. Sir Anthony's res.
ignation went for his whole cabi-
net. Actually his ministers carr,
on with full powers until any re.
shuttle which his successor might
make.
Now SO, Sir Anthony's owr
political future was obscure

Might Get Earldom
1t is customary to offer ar
outgoing Prime Minister an earl
dom as a reward for his service
to his country. In order to accept
a title. Sir Anthony would have
to resign the Commons seat he
has held from the Warwick con-
lstituency since 1923. His health
appeared to offer one reason foi
doing this also.
Presumably, though, he plans
some months on a restricted
routine to recover from the ex-
ceptional strain of his time in
Office.

There was speculation in
diplomatic circles today that a
Big Two meeting between Presi-
dent Eisenhower and Mr.. Mac
milan might now be quickly
arranged.
One of the effects Of such a
move might be to head off a gen.
eral election in Britain and the
risk of replacement of the 81

ment with a Labor regime. which
the Republican administration
here would prefer to avoid.

that the Big Two conference
would be expanded to become a

In School Fraud

HOUSTON. Tex. July 81 up.
George B. Parr, SIS, was SEN
fenced to 10 years in prison
and fined $4,000 yesterday on
"a Federal conviction of using
the mails to defraud a school
district in Duval County, where
he long has been a political
power.
Federal Judge Joe Ingraham
sentenced the South Texas
political figure to five years on
each Of 20 counts in the indict-
ment. but divided them into
two groups Of 10 counts and
directed that they should run
concurrently. Parr was fined
81 900 on each count.
The Government accused
Parr and eight associates of
defrauding the Benavides In
dependent School District of
more than 100000 in tax
funds. mainly by issuing and
caShing checks made out to
fictitious persons.
The Government charged
the checks were sent through
the mails.
Parr, although not an official
of the school district. kept the
tax records in his Office at San
Diego. Tex, for about is years
until they were moved back to
Benavides in 1851. He coun-
tersigned the districts checks
