THE POLITICAL MIL
Critics Should Take Second Look
BY GOULD LINCOLN


The custom is to translate
nearly everything - every
thing, that Is. which appears
to leave q party or . Presi-
dent In power open to attack
lin terms OF politics. And 20
the critics have sought. and
continue to seek, to heap
their scorn on President
Dwight D. Eisenhower for
two recent happenings, one
weighted with domestic con-
Germ and the other concerned
with international policy and
national defense. The first,
Of course. IL the Little Rock
school case and the sending
Of Federal troops to see that
mob rule halts and the deci-
sion Of . Federal court be
carried into eject. The Sec
ond IL the launching Of the
Russian earth satellite.
Take the second line of
attack first--that President
Eisenhower and his admins
tration have failed TO put q
satellite In motion around the
earth before the Russians,
hooked In with the possible
development Of an interconti-
mental missile Of huge de-
structive force. The reaction
Of the Eisenhower critics
could not have been better
tuned for Russian propagar-
d.. Too many Of them have
adopted O kind Of "all ID lost"
"suaye qui peut" attitude that
does not reflect the spirit Of
America. It does reflect. how.

time when the real need is
for national unity for ma
tional defense. and for
strengthening our policies
abroad and the cooperation
Of our allies. Unfortunately
we seem to be telling these
allies that the United States
Is admitting defeat. In any
kind Of war-cold or hot.

Navy received a tremendous
blow. Responsibility for that
disaster has never been finally
fixed. But the American
people-or the Republicans
who were out OF power at that
time-did not waste their time
In criticism of President
Franklin Delano Roosevelt, or
even in telling the world we
were 20 far behind In national
defense that we never could
catch UP. Instead, there was
complete unity and the result
was the final defeat Of Japan
and the winning Of the war
