significance. It is easy for
the countries which have
common interests to reach
an agreement over Sharing

much more difiicult TO find
means TO curb the growing
Communist appetite for in

Although Britain is q
member Of the Baghdad pact

more directly interested in
that region. it Is America
which for the time being has
assumed the leading role in
the Syrian Turkish Soviet
crisis. The reason is easy to
understand Britain lost face
in the Middle East after the
flop Of her operations against
Egypt's Nasser last Novem-
Der. Moreover, Britain has
decided on drastic reduction
Of her military establishment
for economic and financial
reasons. However. when the
Macmillan adininistra-
ton decided on extensive
surgery on the military ex-
penditure the situation had
not reached the present
gravity. The reduction of
British military power is for

THOMAS L. STOKES
Democrats Grab the Spotlight

What has now happened Ia
that party leaders outside the
South have made II plain
they are done with appease-
ment Of Southern leaders,
who can 60 ahead and form
q third party II they choose.
The Northern leaders are
resigned to whatever risk is
involved. In truth. It could
turn out to be not as big a
gamble as Southerners would
like to make it appear.
Democrats have nothing to
fear in the South from Re-
publicans as a result Of Pres
dent Eisenhower's dispatch
OF troops to little Rock.
Everybody agrees on that. As
for a third party, which
would be based on only one
issue - maintenance Of seq
regation - many Southern
Democrats might decline to
support II, as happened In
1913 in the case Of the Dixie
crat third party headed by
Strom Thurmond. then Gov
ernor OF South Carolina. now
Senator.
II appears now that Demo-
cratic National Chairman
Paul H. Butler was fore
sighted and performed a
service for his party when. a
few months back, he created
the advisory council TO
speak for the national party.
Il likewise now seems lucky
that this enterprise was
snubbed by the two Southern
leaders In Congress--Speaker
Of the House Sam Rayburn
and Senate Leader Lyndon
B. johnson, both Of Texas.
For this council, which
offers a platform to such
recognized national leaders
as former President Truman
and Adlai Stevenson as well
as other prominent figures
In the Northern wing Of the
party, has divorced itself from
Southern influence and has
established itself as q spokes-
man for the national party.
II can speak up to Offset
Southern leaders in Con-
gress when It is plain they
are acting and speaking only
n the South.

Senator Believed Losing Some Support
After Speaking Out for Supreme Court

Senator John F. Kennedy's
romance with the South. one
Of the provocative features
Of the 1856 Democratic con-
vention. Is the latest victim
Of Little Rock.
The Senator was chal-

could at best expect boos
and at worst mayhem. he
got an ovation from Missis-

cept the Supreme Courts

dicated that he cannot ex-
pect from the South in 1860

cations, almost put him over
for the vice presidential
nomination last year.
It soon became clear in the
