dictability of radioactive fall-out do not
support the policy of preattack evacua-
tion." The advent of the H-bomb and the
forthcoming development of long-range
missiles, which would permit of almost
no warning time, seem to have doomed
the evacuation concept.
To a somewhat lesser degree, the
same thing is true of shelters. Civil
Defense Director Val Peterson has esti-
mated that with the best shelter system,
costing sometimes more than $32 billion,
we would still lose about 40 per cent Of
our population in an about attack. And
even this assumes enough warning time
to get people into the shelters, which
might not be possible when the missile
age arrives.
So the attitude of the House, we
assume, reflects a fatalistic feeling that
the only defense in the thermometer
age is to prevent war, and that if war
should come we will simply have to take
the frightful consequences.

Speeding President

We do not want to appear to be
making Federal case out of the Presi-
dents over the speed limit trip to
Gettysburg. But neither do we think
that the Presidents car, in the absence
of an emergency, has any business trav-
cling 60 miles an hour in 25-mile zone.
Zone Montgomery police officer attributes
this speed to the Presidents car. Another
says he doesn't think the President was
speeding.)
1t may be that the President, escorted
as he is, is not especially endangered by
high speeds. But other people using the
roads could be endangered, and certainly
this is no way to set an example for the
motoring public.
Speed is the great killer on our high
ways, and in connection with a traffic
safety drive last January, the President
said: 1.-THE responsibility for behaving
sensibly in traffic is shared by all of us"
This responsibility is not only shared by
all, but should be lived up to by all-in-
Guiding the President and the newsmen
who accompany him on his trips.

New Honor for Mrs. Luce

The University of Notre Dame has
made an excellent choice in naming Mrs.
Clare Boothe Luce as the recipient of its
Laetare Medal for 1857 The award, one
Of the highest conferred annually on
American lay Catholics becomes her we'll.
few months ago, when she resigned
as United States Ambassador to Italy,
President Eisenhower did not exaggerate
In commencing her for "a job superbly
DONE" and now this new honor has come
to her not only for her diplomatic
achievements, but also for her good work
In wide range of other fields.
Father Hesburgh, Notre Danes presi-
dent, has summed up the general char
acter of this work in these words: an
her brilliant and singularly versatile
career, Clare Boothe Luce has demon
strated talents and effectiveness alto
gether uncommon in the worlds of diplo-
macy, politics, the theater, and letters"
She is the 10th American Catholic woman
to become a Laetare Medalist since the
beginning of the award in 1888 It is a
merited distinction in which she can
take proper pride as a God-fearing citi-
zen who has done much for her country
and her church.

No Defense in Sioht

The House vote for 10 per cent
slash in civil defense funds presumably
reflects lack Of confidence in all plans
which, loosely speaking, is nothing more
than gesture of ridicule at the idea OF
civil defense.
President Eisenhower had requested
$3.50 million for civil defense, and even
this, of course, would not have provided
any defense worthy of the name But the
House has cut this figure to $39300,0O0
which, loosely speaking, will be just about
enough to discredit the Civil Defense
Administration
Actually, there is no such thing as
a worth while plan or program for civil
defense in this country. The concept Of
evacuating cities has been virtually
shelved. Last years test in Chicago re-
suited in the conclusion that INSULT

Reputation Plus

In reporting the District appropria-
ton bill for the next fiscal year, Chair
man Rabaut'S subcommittee has been
able to show a substantial reduction be-
low both this years budget estimates
and the current years appropriations.
But the local taxpayer will receive
no tangible benefit from what appears,
on paper, to be saving" of almost SIS
million whacked off the recommended
budget. Most of the reductions represent
deferred, not abandoned, expenditures
for public works. Most of the delays APP
pear to be reasonable. Yet the taxpayer
will continue to pay for what will be done
tomorrow, rather than now. No savings
will be shown in his tax BILL
The indefenSible reduction is in the
Federal payment The amount authorized
is $23 million. The committee recon-
mends only $50 million. And 1t is here
that the local taxpayer is really short
changed.
Only three years ago Congress voted
a public works program, to be financed
in part by heavy increase in local taxes
and substantial increase in the Federal
payment. Local taxes have been increased
not once, but twice. And in these three
years Congress has failed by SIS million
to live up to its implied agreement to
match higher local taxes by an author
lied increase in the Federal payment.
The failure, in the appropriations bill
just reported, to grant the full S23 mil
lion may increase this deficit in the Fed
eral share to SO million.
This reputation hits the local tax
payer in two ways. The public works
program has been knocked into a cooked
hat. And it is likely that the So million
that Congress has failed to appropriate
as the Federal share of the program
will eventually be paid by another heavy
increase in local taxes.
1t appears to be impossible, despite
the earnest efforts of the legislative COM
mitteeS in the House and Senate, to draw
up a reasonable and workable scheme
for financing this city, under a system
that encourages planning for the future.
Whatever is done in that respect by
legislation is invariably undone by the
Appropriations Committees refusal to
meet the obligations so readily acknowl-
edged in the law
In 1854, the first year under the
newly adopted public works program,
the House OVERRIDE it's Appropriations
Committee and met the Federal obliga-
ton in full. 1t should do so again.

Pilots View

The very level area situated
within Loudoun County's Broad
Run district is what / recon-
mend as the best available site
for a supplementary Washing
ton airport. 1t is located 10
air miles from Chain Bridge.
Three major advantages Of
Broad Run that cannot be
disregarded in selecting a site
are these:
% Using air space west and
north Of metropolitan WASH
ington would ensure full fiexi-
bility Of air traffic control,
thereby enhancing efficiency
and safety Of the supplement
tary airport and not interfering
with air traffic control at the
present Washington National
Airport.
(2) Establishing northeast
southwest air traffic lanes
westward of Metropolitan
Washington would avoid the
danger areas to the south and
east Of Washington and avoid
flying over Washington's
heavily populated areas.
90 Savings in constructing
the airport on this proposed
Broad Run site would approach
$40 million over other locations.
Such savings, plus Loudoun
County's low $2.05 tax rate,
would offer a strong incentive
for airport tenants to locate
their maintenance shops and
general Offices at this airport.
Also. an airport authority
could thus be assured a prof
liable enterprise.

New Round on Cyprus

Britain's release of Archbishop Ma
karios, religious and political leader Of
the Greek Cypriots, must be considered
an encouraging development in the bitter
controversy over the future of Cyprus.
In turn, the appeal of the archbishop
who has been under detention in the
Seychelles Islands for more than year
to the Cypriot underground EOKA to
cease its campaign of violence against
British authority should help to set the
stage for new efforts to resolve the issue
peaceably.
The issue itself is not a simple one
and its resolution in the true interests Of
all parties necessarily requires compro-
mise from all. Since 1873, Cyprus has been
under British political administration.
Both militarily and economically 1t Is
today the last British outpost in the east
ern Mediterranean. British withdrawal
from the island almost certainly would
be the final step in surrendering both
political influence and military power in
the Middle East. But almost 80 per cent
of the islands half-million population is
Greek by ancestry. An aggressive portion
of this 30 per cent-although exactly how
much is not by any means clear-is de-
manding political union with Greece.
Archbishop Makarios has been the master
mind of this movement in recent years
AT the same time. nearly 20 per cent of
the population is Turkish by ancestry
and comparably violent against falling
under Greek rule. The fact the island is
only 40 miles of the Turkish coast gives
further concern to Turkey itself.
Numerous propoSals-including home
rule and partition-have been made for
settlement of the problem. The Greek
nationalist movement has rejected every
thing short Of DIFFERENTIATION and I'LL
innate union with Greece The detention
of Makarios resulted only in complete
breakdown of negotiations and stepped
up campaign of violence. With his re-
lease, negotiations may be resumed and
the violence may end. The North At
lantic Treaty Organization has offered
its mediation services, to which Britain
has agreed and which Greece thus far has
declined. Through this channel or some
other new effort must be made. The
auspices are better now than for year
past and the opportunity should not be
missed.

There are hopeful signs that
long-suffering conservatives in

are beginning to get their dan

tiers complaining about mount

and witness the recent forma-
ton Of the Montgomery Con-

proudly proclaim its aims and
detectives to be:

the people of Montgomery

yard Of aggression. He de-
tested and repudiated any,
thing which savored Of a safe
and straddling neutraliSm in
that which he clearly saw was
a global fight to the death
against malignant forces.
During his last "a hours-lit-
orally on his dying day-in an
address which to make cost
him his life he declared;
"Neutralism is un-Filipino."
BY that he meant that any
where to shake hands with the
devil of totalitarianiSm is trea-
son to the free world. AS was
said eloquently in the chorus
of lamentation on the door of
the United States Senate. His
death leaves the image of a
man who saw that freedom
was little more than a word
unless 1t touched the weak as
well as the strong, unless it
reached down to the last rice
farmer in the smallest barrio
in the islands. The life and
presidency of Ramon Mag
saysay was dedicated to giving
meaning to freedom" It was
his proudest boast. II gave the
people what communism only
promises" That was the telling
blow that broke the back of
the Hulk gangster movement.
On that day in the palace
with deep feeling he narrated
the story of the smashing of
that rebellion against law and
order and Of the ferreting out
of communistic agents. He
affirmed his belief in spiritual
forces for he was a devout
Christian. He poured out his
credo-his believe--that day

done!

Il shall remember this hour
to my dying days" So spake
Ramon Magsaysay. intrepid
leader Of the Philippines last
September in the palace at
Manila. In the presence of a
distinguished mpany Of
Americans and FilipinoS the
chaplain of the United States
Senate on behalf of Freedoms
Foundation had just presented
to the President of the Philip
pine Republic a distinguished
achievement award. On the
plaque which the President
took in his hands with evident
appreciation and satisfaction
were engraved these words:
Ramon MagsaySay has given
accent to the fundamental
belief in God underlying free
life and has rendered unend-
ing, stern, effective opposition
to cynical atheistic world So
cialism commonly known as
communism. These words
were read as the herald of
Freedoms Foundation and the
President of the Philippine
Republic stood face-to-face in
that impressive setting. In its
dignifled and ornate beauty
the palace seemed vocal Of the
old Spanish days and of the
dawn of democracy when
Admiral Dewey sent the Span
ish squadron to the bottom of
the bay.
Those privileged to be pres
ent will never forget the stir
ring reply made by President
Magsaysay as perhaps as never
before in a public address he
wildly relived his valiant fight
to rid the islands of the Hulk
menace backed by the Commu-
nists like vultures feeding on
the misery Of the Philippine
people. There he stood that
September day dressed in spot
less white with his cabinet
about him similarly attired. In
that high hour Ramon Mag
saysay looked the part he had
conspicuously played over the
turbulent years in the cease
less fight to make men free.
In his stalwart rugged form he
was democracy incarnate. In
his presence one became con-
scious Of a word made flesh.
From the common people he
had come-to all the people
he belonged. There was no man
in Asia who loathed commu-
niSm more. At first hand he
knew its spurious promises and
its venomous fangs. Yet the
passion Of his dynamic life was
not to be against evil but to be
for the good. With all his ar
dent nature he believed that
the most deadly foe of COM
munism is democracy prac-
ticed. The career of this Lin
coln-like leader from auto ma
chinist raised in the home of
