President Eisenhower PAID
tribute to the memory of George
Washington Carver in letter
to DR.. Alma Ipery. president OF
the National Achievement Clubs
Inc, which sponsors week-lone
memorial to Mr.. Carver.
Mr.. Eisenhower wrote:
Each year. on the fifth OF
January, it is a privilege &c
join in honoring the memory
Of George Washington Carver
Though born a slave, DR.. Carver
grew up a free man and through
his achievements became the
servant of all. He is considered
one OF the greatest chemurgists
OF our time. In his full and
beneficial life he made outstand-
ing contributions in the field OF
agriculture and strengthened the
economy of the Nation.
DIR. Carver's scientific mind
complemented his religious con-
victions. He practiced his belief
in the Fatherhood of God and in
the Brotherhood of Man. He
demonstrated the wisdom of our
American heritage of equality:
he was a living example of the
fact that genius is found among
all peoples.
"As We pay tribute to the
memory of George Washington
Carver. We rededicate ourselves
to the fundamental principle of
a common humanity upon which
our Nation is founded and
from which we gain continual
strength"
Francis Cardinal Spellman re-
celved the Carver Institute Medal
last year. Other recent recipi-
ents Of the award have been
Secretary of Defense Charles
E. Wilson. William Randolph
Hearst. Daryl Zanuck and Mrs
Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

Bitar says the Arab states should
support the principles behind
President Eisenhower's request
for standby powers to meet ag-
lgression in the Middle East with
force. But. he said, he opposes
any unilateral United States &C
ton outside the United Nations.
The Foreign Minister declared
in an interview that the Essen
hover plan should not be aimed
at aggression by Just one side, !"
but should be used to oppose "all
aggression from whatever direc-
ton it comes" United States
policy is pointed specifically at
any Soviet aggression in the area
Mr.. Bitar said. "All countries
agreeing with the United States
in opposing aggression should
participate with her in using
force against an aggressor. This
should not go beyond the frame

United Nations"

Critical of Discussion
! Mr.. Bitar expressed alarm over
the fact the Eisenhower plan
was discussed with British and
French ENJOYS in Washington
but not with Arab ENJOYS"
Farid Zeineddine, Syrian Am
bassador to Washington, fatty
warned the United States on De-
cember 81 against any new policy
Of relying on United States mill
tary force to guard the Middle
East from Russian aggression OF
subverSion.
Nj. Zeineddine delivered to
the State Department an eight
point denunciation Of the Essen
hover proposal for standby
authority to use American armed
force if necessary to check
Soviet expansion IN the Middle
East. He said the "so-called
Soviet penetration of the Arab

Policy of Cooperation
MI. Bltar said Indian Prime
Minister Nehru had been asked
to present the Arab viewpoint
TO Mr.. Eisenhower during their
recent talks in Washington. He
expressed the hope that "a
policy of cooperation. free from
an imperialistic point OF view,
could be established between the
United States and the Arab
countries"
He declared the Western view
that there is a power vacuum in
the Middle East is an incorrect
assumption. He expressed the
hope the United States would not
act on this assumption and
grant herself the right to do
whatever she wants in this area. -
This. he said. would produce
the same antaeonism the Arabs
are now feeling against Britain

tain a new realistic rule to limit
unreasonable debate in the SEN
ate of the United States. This
action keeps faith with the posi-
ton taken in the 1856 Demo
cratic platform. We regret that
the Republican Party did not
take similar position.
Committees Purposes
The Advisory Group also issued
statement setting forth its
purposes. 1t makes clear that
one is to provide a voice for the
National Democratic Party. II
said: I'VE are hoping to provide
a collective voice for party rep
resentation on a year around
basis for the millions of Demo-
Gratis who may OF may not be
represented in either House of
Congress. 1t is interesting tc
note that although our party is
in control of the Senate and the
House, nine million Democratic
voters are found in States in
which there are no Democratic
Senators, and II million in con-
greSSional districts which are
represented in Congress by Re-
publicans.'
The statement said, too, that
the liberal platform adopted by
the last Democratic National
Convention will be the commit
tees guide in the formulation
OF programs. Also. in world
troubled by fast-moving events
and sudden crises the Democra-
tic must be prepared. the state
ment said. to deal on a broad
and democratic basis with new
situations.
Foreign Policy Attacked
I The Advisory Committee" il
said. will enable our party on
national basis, to present new
programs to meet problems
which arise during the periods
between national conventions. .
This kind of thing has been
cared for in the past by the
Democratic leadership in Con-
gress-which has given no sign
yet of relinquishing this duty.
The group said that it will not
hesitate to agree with the Re-
publican administration when it
is right, but we shall also be
fearless and unsparing in our
criticism when it is wrong. 1t
listed long series of aims for
liberal legiSlationS. for the pro-
lection of minority groups, and
for a better foreign policy. The
statement vigorously attacked
the Eisenhower foreign policy.
Mr.. Butler said he hoped the
Advisory Committee would meet
regularly and prove a real force
and aid to the national party.
He said the next meeting prob
ably would be in San Francisco
February Is. at the time the
National Committee will meet
there and Democrats from all
parts Of the country.
