No War in Sioht

Two hopeful notes were sounded as
General Twining took over from Admiral
Radford as chairman of the Joint Chiefs
of Staff.
The first, in which both men seemed
to concur, is that there is no likelihood
that the United States, If 1t maintains
its strength, will become involved in a.
big war, and reduced likelihood of in
volvement in little war. The second is
that we are approaching the time when
an adequate military structure can be
maintained at the current annual Level
OF expenditure-about $38 billion.
This is lot of money. But it is a
manageable expenditure in an expand
ing economy, and, in any event, we have
no other choice. There is no doubt that
1t is the power of the United States which
has held the Russians in check, which
has discouraged any military ambitions
which they might have entertained. II
the existence Of this power has reduced
the danger Of war, that is something to
be grateful for-and the power is also
something to be maintained at all costs
In the prevailing climate Of the world.

Victory' in Arabia

lie war III MuSCaC ana oman, II IL
really can be called a war, seems to be
about over The Sultan's banners have
been raised over the principal strong
holds" of the rebel forces, the rebel
leaders have taken to the hills and there
are no reports of further organized
resistance.
In the military sense, this has not
been much of a war. The Sultans
British-led and British-supported forces
apparently have killed about dozen
rebels and the number of known
wounded is even smaller. The Sultan
is reported to have lost one soldier, a
Trucial Oman scout, and three of his
men are on the list of wounded. OF
course, it has been a grossly uneven
contest. The British, responding to
treaty obligations, sent in planes, tanks,
armored cars and troops to support the
Sultan's forces. The rebels evidently
were equipped with little more than
antiquated rifles So the military issue
was never in question. That it has taken
four weeks to put down this revolt is
due, no doubt, to the desire of the Brit
iSh to infiict an absolute minimum of
casualties. It was necessary to support
the Sultan when he called for help. But
1t was also necessary, from the stand
point of British interests, to avoid any
wholesale slaughter of the forces sup
porting the rebelliouS Imam Ghaleb
bin Ali.
The reasons for this are political in
nature. For this victory" in Muscat
and Oman is almost certain to damage
British interests elsewhere in the Arab
world. 1t will intensity anti-British
sentiment, especially in the few remain
ing areas where Britain maintains a
precariouS foothold, and will render
more doubtful Britain'S already dubious
prospects of eventually deriving some
material benefits from hanging on to
this southeastern corner of the Arabian
peninsula.
Presumably, the hope is that oil in
significant quantities will be found in
the area. But it has not been found as
yet, and, meanwhile, the British must
face the prospect of more trouble, not
only in Muscat and Oman, but in half a
dozen small Sheikdoms along the Trucial
coast. There must be those in London
who are wondering whether the game
Is worth the candle.

Tina had glorious eyes.

Dog happiness is something
all by itself.
1t depends mostly on two
things, cleanliness and food.
Food particularly appealed
to Tina. not because she
wasn't fed well at home. but
because she was all dog and
a yard wide.
All dogs have a special
stomach for handouts from
the neighbors.
Temp Jones prepared
snacks for Tina, out of the
goodness Of his heart and
the Brightness Of his refriger-
ator.
Tina partook Of these
snacks as a good girl should,
with gusto, as 1t were, and
a nice way Of casting GOO
goo eyes at Jones as she ate.
The result, over the weeks,
was that Tina took on
weight. as most m o dern
maidens do.

Cut the Deficit

The overwhelming vote by the
House in favor of increased postal rates
was influenced by the thought that the
previously approved pay raise for postal
workers thereby would become more
palatable to the administration. This
may well have been wishful thinking,
however, for the postage increase would
largely be nullif1ed by pay raise. The
primary reason for boosting mail fees
is not to finance higher pay but to
reduce the huge postal service deficit.
now running more than half a billion
dollars year. The present deficit is
reason enough for seeking more revenue,
without adding to the deficiency.
The postal deficit for 1858 will ex-
coed $3.50 million, at current pay sched-
ules. The rate bill passed by the House
would lop about $500 million from that
loss figure. The Postmaster General
and the President are not asking that
the postal service be put on a self
sustaining basis. They agree that some
Federal subsidies are necessary in the
public interest. They are rightly con-
cerned, however, over the tremendous
losses being incurred in the delivery of
the mail-loSses that have been increas-
Ing at an alarming rate in the past
several years.
The one-cent rise in the letter rate
recommended by the administration
and approved by the House would be the
first change in the three-cent first-class
fee since 1882. The higher charges for
second and third class mail service also
are thoroughly justified. Fate of the
bill in the Senate is uncertain in the
closing days of this session. We hope.
however, that the Senate will find time
to add its Endorsement to the rate
legislation now-irrespective of what
Congress finally does about postal and
general civil service pay.

pay for essential imports. But the human
factor, especially the factor of the coun-
try's undisciplined politics and multi
plicity Of parties, makes one wonder
whether the Bourges-Maunoury govern
ment will be allowed to survive long
enough to put its "austerity" program to
work before the present trouble becomes
acute.
In the circumstances, Frances
friends can do little more than hope for
the best-namely, that the country will
measure up to the challenge before it by
doing whatever is necessary to save it
self from what could develop into a
major economic collapse.

France in Trouble

Despite its being a rich and booming
country with full employment France
today is in dangerous economic straits.
Its gold and dollar reserves are RAPIDLY
dwindling away, and unless it can re-
store them to safe level, it will not
have the wherewithal to get all the fuel
and raw material it must import to
maintain its high rate of industrial
production.
That production has advanced phe-
nomenally within the past five years I'm
fortunately, however, while the French
have been buying more and more from
abroad, they have been exporting less
and less, and this acknowledgements
by the costly Algerian war-cannot con-
tinue much longer without causing an
industrial showdown. Such a showdown
would lead to growing unemployment,
which in turn could set of a chain re-
action Of events Gripping the country's
entire economy.
To cope with this potentially grave
situation, which calls chiefly for a
marked increase in exports, the Bour-
ges-Maunoury cabinet has adopted sew

measures. These include the following
Q) A limited devaluation of the franc to

markets and to encourage foreign tour

aimed at persuading the people of
France to get off their buying spree, and
(3) government spending cuts and other

prices.

A Guoronteed Rioht

ment reasserts that "In all
criminal prosecutions, the
accused shall enjoy the right
to a speedy and public trial

is respectfully submitted that
the right to trial by jury
amendment in the pending
civil rights bill-or any bill
instead of impeding" judicial
processes, will be strength
ening them, in consonance
with the clear spirit of our
Constitution as ordained by
our founding fathers. How
any public servant could pub
licly proclaim his distrust and
fear of the people Of this
republic who serve on our
juries and yet at the same
time solicit their support at
the polls at the coming cleo
tons is most incongruous-to
say the least.
And IL some Of the lib

strained to deny to their con-

might be Of interest for them
to read United States v.

Federal court fined Mr.. Lewis
$4,000 personally and the
union $500. 900 for contempt
of court. The demand for a
jury trial was refused by the
court and sustained by a
divided Supreme Court. 1t
would appear that certain
so-called labor Senator's and
Congressman might well re-
examine their positions in
demanding that jury trials
be denied the people and
adopt instead the opposite
approach.

THIS AND THAT
By CHARLES E. TRACEWELL

Recently we gave a short
account of Temp Jones' mix
up with a ferocious dachs-
hund. usually the most gentle
Of dogs.
Today let the theme be
Tina.
In summer, Jones thoughts
often revert to this black
canine girl, one of the worlds
best.
Tina lived across the street.
and was as kind and peaceful
as a dog could be.
She loved to be wheeled up
and down the block in a
garden cart. with just her
head sticking out.
She liked better than any
thing to climb up in a chair
with you. and regard the
garden world from that van
tage point.
y 4 +
1t must be realized that
such perfection in the dog
world would make a great
appeal to Jones, always a
connoisseur Of dog flesh.
His first love had been a
big American bull terrier, one
of these white fellows with a
long whip tail.
After this. a dog had to be
pretty good to win Jones adj
miration, but that is one Of
the best things good dogs can
do, and they do not have to
have a pedigree, either.
No doubt, from the human
breeders standpoint, the ped
igree is the thing; it covers a
multitude Of sins. and means,
on the whole. better blood,
bone and muscle. and coat.
But for everyday doggy af-
lection, nothing quite takes
the place Of the Just everyday
dog, the kind with a waggy
tail and all.
\ -
Tina, Of course, had a pedi-
gree.
She wasn't like so many
pretty human girls you see.
who have somehow Just
missed being a pretty girl.
Tina was pretty all through,
in a most acceptable dog way.
Her coat was soft and
gleamy with hiRhliehts, and
her tongue was rough and
ready, her manners perfec-
ton.
Her eyes we're
Well, one look from those
eyes, and every dog friend
felt impelled to take a look In
the pantry. to see II there
wasn't something there she
would like.

Damned If He Does

The President now has an opportu-
nifty to reflect on the unhappy plight Of
the man who was damned if he did
and damned if he didn't. For Mr.. Ell
senhower, sometimes denounced by his
critics for failing to exercise strong lead
ership, is now under fire for attempting
to dictate" to Congress.
The fire has not been especially
heavy or especially damaging. But there
Is no miStaking its intent and its target.
Mr.. Eisenhower called his first spe-
cial news conference Wednesday after
noon to announce that he would have
to call Congress back into special session
this fall If foreign aid funds should be
cut appreciably below the $3.3 billion
authorized figure. He insisted that this
should not be interpreted as threat, so
perhaps it can be called a serving of
notice.
Whatever it may be called, it did not
fall on receptive ears on Capitol Hill.
Speaker Rayburn said the Presidents
warning was "unwise' Senator Mans
field said it was "inadviSable Minority
Leader Johnson said he would not like
to think that any man lin the Senate)
would be influenced in his Judgment
by "a suddenly called news conference"
And so on.
But what is a President to do?
Should he wait until after Congress has
cut the appropriation, and then come
forward with futile criticism of the
cut or too-late appeal for restoration
OF the funds? It may be that the timing
OF the Presidents statement will hurt
his case in reSentful Congress. Ger
tainly the irresponsible slash which the
House has made in the funds suggests
as much. Nevertheless, we think Mr..
Eisenhower did the right thing at the
right time. His bid to save the appro-
priation should have been made before,
not after, it had been dangerously re-
duced. If he had kept quiet, had he not
spoken out in behalf of a program in
which he deeply believes, then he would
have been justly subject to criticism for
letting the battle go by default.
We happen to believe that the Pres
ident is correct in his belief that the
security of the United States and of the
free world will be endangered If the for
eign aid fund, the great bulk of which is
for military aid, should be substantially
reduced. Obviously, the House does not
agree. Nor do number of Senators,
whose sincerity is not open to ques-
ton. There should be no ruffled feel
ingS among these gentlemen, however,
merely because the President has served
notice that he will call Congress back
In special session if the funds are insult
f1cient. Unquestionably, Congress has
the right and the duty to make what
ever appropriation it deems proper. But
the President also has right and a
duty-to speak out in timely fashion
against what Senator Smith of New Jer-
sey has called economy gone mad"

which Keeps IN enecC Sucn an

We feel that energetic pro-
tests coming from the public
opinion of this country, and
notably from the American
press, together with an offer
by humanitarian and welfare
societies in the United States
to make available appropriate
quantities of Salk vaccine to
Rumania, may lead the Blu
charest government to recon-
slider its present ruthless at
titude.
The generosity of the
American people is known
and gratefully appreciated by
all the nations Of the world.

can save untold thousands
from suffering. lifelong dis

On Pounding Pills

Unless I am much too SEN
sitive. / detect q creeping in
nuendo in a statement made
by the former Speaker of the
House. Joseph Martin. in
which he Stated-as quoted
that he had voted for civil
rights as far back as 1925
when Senator Humphrey
was pounding pills learning
to be a druggist"
Do we infer from that
statement that because a
man started his mature life
as a pharmacist. he is to be
clasSed as a man of lesser in
tellect. ability and learning
than one who began life, say,
by running a small newspaper
In a one-horse town?
A little research through
colleges in his own State
would inform Mr.. Martin
that a pharmacist is a man Of
education. having spent four
to five years in an accredited
college before he was entitled
to a diploma and a license to
practice that honored profess
sion.
We all know and none will
deny that the responsibility
Of a member Of the House is
a heavy one. but it will do
no harm to remind Mr.. Mar
tin that his health and the
health of the Nation depend
a good deal on the skill of
the man who compounds the
medicines prescribed by doc
tors. This. 1t seems to me,
would establish a pharma-
cist's responsibility and USE
fulnesS on a par with that
of a member of Congress.
A hundred doctors, with all
their learning and clinical
experience, could not help
Mr.. Martin recover even from
so slight a malady as the
sniffles. without the pharma-
cist's knowledge and skill.
This careless talk may lose
the House minority leader the
pharmacist vote at the next
elections.
/ also have 1t from reliable
authority that the pharma-
cist does not pound pills. and
since / abhor cliches, l would
plead that Mr.. Martin avoid
them in future statements.
1t seems to me the gentle
man who won such a quick
and decisive victory over the
legendary Joe Smith" has
lost a battle of wits with the
learned pharmacist who is
also the distinguished Sena-
tor from the State of Mime

On Foreign Aid

VIC AA0NC AAOA q oAoRASAOAA
that there were those in high
places in our Government
who looked upon foreign aid
simply as a part Of the eco
nomic warfare against COM
munism, but we hardly ex-
pected anyone would voice
this view so positively as did
the Secretary Of State as in
dicated in The Star.
In the past three years we
have travelled in several Of
the countries where laid"
has been granted, and where
it has been gratefully re-
ceived. Furthermore we have
met many of our fellow cit
liens who are carrying out
the aid program in foreign
lands and we have yet to find
one who is not dominated by
the spirit of human helpful
ness of the same quality we
have found in the Christian
missionaries we have had
occasion to meet. particu-
larly in India, China, and
Japan.
Whatever the spirit in
which the aid is initiated. we
believe the spirit Of love and
friendship prevails in che
carrying out Of the work Of
the administration in the
field. Such statements as you
quote. when printed abroad
may cancel much of the
friendly feeling which has
been generated by foreign
aid. due to the Christian
spirit in which the work
abroad has been carried out.
