DAVID LAWRENCE

Do the American people
want another global war? OF
course not: Do they want to
surrender control of the whole
world to the Communists In
Moscow? OF course not. Then
what policy do the critics Of
American policy. both here
and abroad. want the United
States to follow?
This Is the bewildering
question of the year ahead.
For what has been said here
tofore by the critics affords
no clue to the answer.
There has been inside
Washington in recent months
q steady propaganda from
prominent Democrats in Con-
gress who claim America has
no friends abroad" or that
our allies "have lost conf
dence in u.s." or that Amer
lea has lost ground to the
Communists"
Conceding every one Of the
criticisms to be true-for
when America stops sending
abroad as many billions as
before. it does lose friends
the question is what do the
persons who oppose the
Eisenhower Dulles policies
propose as a substitute? They
seem to hold the President
and the Secretary Of State
responsible for the misbeha-
vior Of the Soviet rulers. but
do not reveal what remedy
there Is to control such beha-
vior. Would they 60 to war
or use force to coerce the
men in the Kremlin to be-
have? Would they threaten
the Communist regime with
military measures to compel
them to stop their aggres-
sions and penetrations in diff
ferent parts Of the world?
Certainly no responsible
leader Of the Democratic
Party advocates any such
course. however vehement
may be his criticism.
The line Of thought that
lately has gained substantial
support not only among Dem
ocrats in Congress but even
among some independent

to negotiate" with the Rus
slams. II Is argued that
nothing can be lost by talk
ing and that. even II the
talks come to naught. the
Western world will know
where II stands" This is the
same kind Of argument that
has been made again and
again ever since the close of
World War II. The Soviets
have made agreements and
broken their pledges re-
peatedly. One need not re-
fer just to the record Of
agreements violated under

ciety Of Newspaper Editors
a list Of more than 80 spe-
cific violations Of written
agreements made by the So
viets with the United States
and other governments.
The simple truth is that
the present rulers OF the So
Wet Union cannot be trusted.
Yet there Is q persistent de-
mand in some quarters that
America ignore her own
allies and negotiate alone
with the Moscow regime. 1t
