REVIEW OF THE WEEK
Moscows S Warnings

Since the Bermuda conference
last month brought American
pledges of guided missile support
for Britain and presumably the
other nations in the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization. the Soviet
Union has been hurling warnings
Of dire consequences. To date, 20
nations have received direct or in
direct threats from Moscow.
The warnings have followed a
pattern: Official messages from the
Kremlin followed by similarly
worded threats broadcast by Mos
COW radio. All promise trouble for
nations permitting their territory
to be used as a base for missile
attacks on the Soviet Union.
The most recent Soviet note, dis
patched to the Netherlands, said
Russia would 'in the event of an
attack on it not shrink from de-
stroying the springboards used for
aggression against it." Such de-
struction, Moscow warned coldly,
If aimed at the proposed NATO
missile base at Soesterberg, would
suffice to obliterate Amsterdam.
the Hague. Utrecht, Amersfoort
and the entire area between those
towns"
Britain, Norway. Denmark,
France, West Germany. Iceland,
Italy, Belgium. Libya, Tlnisia. Mo-
rocco, Saudi Arabia. Japan, Leba-
non, Israel, Iran. Iraq. Turkey and
Pakistan all have received messages
from the Kremlin. Each was
offered the same alternative:
frightful nuclear destruction If
they permitted missile attacks from
their territory VS.. peaceful trade
and coexistence if they did not.
The Soviet concern was attrib-
uted by most Western observers to
imminent American production of
the intermediate range ballistic
missile. guided device capable of
bearing a nuclear warhead-the
hydrogen bomb-for distances of
$500 miles or more. Although esti-
mates of accomplishment vary. it
is held likely that mass production
OF such awesome weapons is at
tainable soon, perhaps within a year.
AS the accompanying map re-
veals. such missiles fired from
typical base locations in NATO ter
ritory could reach vast areas of
the Soviet Union, including many
Of its major industrial centers and
largest cities. And a similar missile
fired from Soviet launching site
would find almost all of Western
Europe in its lethal reach.
While the warnings of atomic
destruction were crowding the Mos
COW airwaves, another Soviet
nuclear test explosion-the fifth in
less than two weeks and the twelfth
since last August--was officially
noted by the Atomic Energy Com
mission. The latest blast. described
as zone OF the largest thus far in
the current Soviet SERIES" brought
a japanese government warning to
the population to boil water and to
wash fruits and vegetables because
Of the dangerously-high level Of
radioactivity in the atmosphere.

Norman Case:
Cdnodo's Ire

Canadian ire, over what has be-
come known as the Norman case,
week ago directed against the
United States. has veered since
then toward Foreign Secretary Les
ter B. Pearson. Mr.. Pearson has
been taken to task by his political
foes Canada is just beginning its
general election campaign and by
influential newspapers. The charge:
His statements to Parliament on
the subject of the suicide in Cairo
of Ambassador E. Herbert Norman
did not reveal the whole story.
In the furor attending the Nor
man case. relations with the United
States were strained. Canada pro-
tested vigorously the release by the
Senate Internal Security Subcom-
mittee of testimony in which ref.
erence was made by Robert Morris,
subcommittee counsel. to Mr.. Nor
man as former Communist.
Ottawa's protest was based on
the release of confidential reports
made by Canadian security agencies
to the Senate, over which United
States executive agencies have no
control. This is still the Canadian
position. but the resentment of
Canadians appears now to have
been tempered by the disclosure
that the original report labelling
Mr.. Norman as a former Commu-
mist did in fact originate from a
Canadian source. A later report by
the Royal Canadian Mounted Po-
lice reversed the findings of the
first.
Mr.. Pearson. replying to his edi-
torial critics Friday night. declared
his earlier statements in the House
Of Commons were made before he
possessed all the facts Of the case.
In Washington. the State De-
partment announced that Canada's
protest on the use of Canadian Sc
curity data had been called to the
attention Of the appropriate execu-
tive agencies" The reassurances
sent to Ottawa also promised that
"the matter will be pursued vigor-
ously."
The New York Daily News on
Thursday published what purported
to be the texts of the two suicide
notes left by Mr.. Norman before
he walked off Cairo rooftop. Ad-
dressed to his wife and to the
Swedish Minister to Egypt. Brynholf
Eng, the notes ascribed the suicide
plan to reasons Mr.. Norman could
not disclose. The mysterious word
ing seemed to negate the assump-
tion that the ENJOYS self -destruc-
tion was impelled entirely by the
renewal Of old charges Of COM
munist connections.
But on Friday the Canadian EN-
bassy in Washington in an Official
statement. called the newspaper
texts "a complete fabrication"

some Of the violence done it to date
had the statement come earlier.
Mr.. Eisenhower expressed the
view that spending in the coming
fiscal year cannot be heavily re-
duced. though he held out some
hope that future expenditures could
be held In check. Indiscriminate
budget-cutting, he pointed out,
might result in grave damage to
national interests at home and
abroad in addition to constituting
only temporary economy, since
much Of his requested spending is
required by laws enacted by Con-
gress itself. He noted that about
one-fourth Of the $7l.8 billion is
for items fixed by law.
OF the remainder. $45 billion is
essential to national security. he
said. and cannot stand reductions
"of any appreciable consequence.
This leaves about So billion. and
Mr.. Eisenhower said the overall
program of Government as 1t is
now conceived could not be carried
out If the Congress decides on any
"multibillion-d dollar reduction"
But Mr.. Eisenhower suggested
that if his budget had to be cut.
the departmental reviews of the
budget which he ordered had re-
vealed that a maximum of $l.8
billion might be removed. But less
than half of this, he said, would
represent reductions in actual ex-
penditures for the coming fiscal
year. The biggest part of the $l.8
billion would come from holding
back on new spending authority
after fiscal 1857. stretching out
some programs and delaying others.
He suggested that Congress. in
the interest of real economy, might
give close review Of pork barrel
rivers and harbors projects "a sug-
gestion not likely to be followed,
and he asked for authority to sep
arate items from appropriations
bills for veto talSo not likely to be
needed. If the fate Of such past re-
quests is any indication.

BohIen Leaves

Even while the Soviet Union was
plainly embarking on a new tack
in foreign relations. and while the
bombastic warnings were being
aired from Moscow to the nations
Of the West. American Ambassador
Charles E. Bohlen departed his
Soviet post after a four-year tour
Of duty. He will go to Manila, for

The Beck Case:


Any hopes AFL-CIO leaders may
have had that Dave Beck. boss of
the Teamsters, could be easily
evicted from the house of labor
were dashed last week by the bel
ligerent Mr.. Beck.
The parent union had suspended
Mr.. Beck from its Executive Coun-
Gil for his refusal to answer ques-
tions put by the select Senate COM
mittee investigating labor-manage-
ment racketeering pending a for
NAL hearing on May 6. On Tuesday,
the Teamsters' president called his
ii vice presidents together to map a
counter-offensive. They demanded,
first of all, that the AFL-CIO pre-
sent any charges it had against
Mr.. Beck in bill of particulars.
The board also demanded that
their president be guaranteed that
all procedures in any hearing
would be fair"
Mr.. Beck then formally chal-
lenged the AFL-CIO actions against
him by declaring that his suspen-
sion as a member Of the Executive
Board was 'nullity." He further
demanded that the AFL-CIO cite
any offense committed by him in
violation Of its constitution. He in
dicated that he would take the
AFL-CIO officers into court If they
didn't come around.
The burden of Mr.. Beck,s argu-
ment seems to be that he cannot
be punished under the AFL-CIO
constitution for violating policy"
laid down by its Ethical Practices
Committee in Miami last January.
1t was then that the committee
declared that any labor official
who pleads the Fifth Amendment
when asked a questions about union
funds is not fit to hold Office.
He made his final parry of the
week by appointing a committee of
five Teamster officials and request
ing AFL-CIO President George
Meany to name five more to discuss
the legal points Of his suspension.
While Mr.. Beck was continuing
his assault against the offensive OF
the AFL-CIO. the Senate commit
tees spotlight was turned from
Portland. Greg. to Scranton. Pa,
where it brought out in sharp
relief a story of dynamiting. stink
bombing, COON squads, black eyes
and general mayhem.
A Teamster-witness who said he
had taken the rap for the dyna-
miting OF house being built by
non-union labor told of rigged
union meetings, violence, the stink
bombing of a bakery and a picket
line Of 5000 men. some of them
armed. around a non-union con-
struction job in Scranton.
Meanwhile. three other unions
facing suspension from the ALL
CIO OH racketeering charges re-
ceived satisfactory probation re-
ports from Machinists' Union
President AL j. Hayes. chairman Of
the Federation's Ethical Practices
Committee.
The three unions which Mr..
Hayes said are taking advantage
of the opportunity to clean house"
are the Laundry Workers. the Dis
tillery Workers and the Allied In
dustrial Workers. They had been
given until May 20 to clean up or
get out.

tion accord. that would keep open
the door for future advances.
For the Russian puolic, the news
papers last week launched double
pronged campaign. For the skinny
size Of Pravda and IzveStia, there
were an unusual number of stories
about the Soviet appeals for a ban
on nuclear weapons, which, accord
ing to the stories, were being re-
jected brusquely by the West. And
in the same editions were reports
OF Western missile bases ringing the
Soviet territories with lethal atomic
terror. Ivan. the Russian man-in-
the-street. was being informed that
not only did the West refuse to give
up hydrogen bombs. but worse than
that was openly preparing to use
them against the Soviet cities.
AS OF yesterday, no Soviet news
paper had taken note of President
Eisenhower's press conference dec
laration on Wednesday that I'VE
have no such plans" when asked il
IT was administration policy to place
guided missile sites within range
OF the Soviet Union. Mr.. Eisenhower
refused to comment on general poll
icy. but pointed out that "the par
ticular plans that We made with
Great Britain were result of
the Bermuda conference, and that
is the only plan of any kind that
has been touched upon."
But the Communist chiefs were
taking no chances. apparently. The
campaign to build up a solid fear
Of nuclear devastation in the NATO
countries went on, accompanied
by promises Of bright and peaceful
prospects il the missile bases were
never built. Meanwhile. the re-
emergence of peaceful coexistence
as a Soviet world slogan seemed
to indicate belief in the Kremlin
that the period of frigidity toward
the West occasioned by the Hun
garian revolt and the Suez inva-
sion could now safely be relaxed.
