A Feorsome Factor

Mr.. Tsarapkin, dour-appear-
ing. grim-faced Russian whose
acerbity when he was a member
of the Soviet delegation to the
United Nations is remembered
with awe by American officials,
has so far kept his peace in the
Geneva deliberations. But his
presence at the right hand of the
Soviet scientific leader, DR.. YeV-
geny K. Fedorov, has kept the
Western delegates in an apprehen-
sive frame of mind. At any NOM
ent, they fear, Mr.. Tsarapkin,
trained in the best traditions Of
Vyacheslav Molotov, Andrei vi
shInsky, and Andrei Gromyko, may
take his index finger from its
favorite position inside his mouth
and throw a Molotov cocktail into
the middle Of the green baize
table.
In itself. perhaps. the Geneva
conference of scientific experts is
of minor Importance. But its sig
nificance as a reliable bellwether

In Lebanon. that spot on the
globe where for the moment peace
bangles over the snakepit of war,
East and West strike a delicate
balance.
Across the centuries, the watch
fob-sized nation on the eastern
shore Of the Mediterranean Sea
has been a crosSroad for the two
worlds.
1t is more so than ever in this
modern age when armies - and
nations - travel on petroleum.
Much Of the Middle EaSt's oil
production is piped out of Saudi
Arabia and Iraq to Lebanon's
ports where it is loaded into
tankers for shipment to Europe
The Russians, who find it polite
to back Camel Abdel Nasser in
his passion to unite the Arab
nations. would like to see Lebanon
fall into the hands Of NasSer's
new United Arab Republic. The
United States, pledged by the
Eisenhower doctrine to fight for
the preservation of the independ-
ence" Of Middle Eastern nations.

which would be like giving two
Senators to Tulsa, Okla, or
Worcester, Mass.
The admission act was uncon-
Stitutional.
Alaska could not support itself
financially as a State without Fed
eral subsidies.
Statehood would only open the
door for admission of Puerto Rico,
Guam, Virgin Islands, etc.
But underneath these arguments
lay the real fear of the South
ernerS: Two more n-Southern
Senators would further weaken
the Dixie bloc in the Senate,
where, it has been said, the South
gets a perpetual revenge for Lee
at Appomattox.
About the only argument not Of
fered in debate was that involv-
ing the problem of how to arrange
40 stars on the American flag.
There seemed to be no inclination
to accept the suggestion of one
Northerner that. if Texas were
given back to Mexico, there'd be
no need to add a star.

practical problems Of peacemak-
ing which 1t has faced in Lebanon.
How to meet such q challenge?
Secretary Of State Dulles said
last week at news conference
that the normal" and best" way
to handle it would be through the
U. N. on this. nearly everyone
agrees. If only for the realistic and
practical reason that the U, MS
moral sanction helps protect a
rescue operation from counter
pressures. both military and po-
litical.
Could Be Vital
In a touchy situation. U. N.
diplomats feel, q U. N. umbrella"
could be the margin Of difference
between success and failure, be-
tween freedom Of action for the
force suppressing the aggression
and the dispatch Of Soviet vol
unteers."
For all its brazen brutality, the
Kremlin still feels a need to JUS
tify its actions to its own people
and to the neutraliSts Of Asia and
Africa. To fail to do so, at least
in the latter case, could be to
negate the effect of billions Of
rubles invested in propaganda and
foreign aid.
There are three levels Of posi-
BILE u. N. action. One is mediation
by the secretary-general. Let Dag
do it" (meaning, Of course, Dag
HammarskjoldD is fast becoming
a slogan and a formula here.
The second is observation and
reporting, a device to mobilize
moral pressure upon a guilty
party through exposure. This
technique, it is recognized, is likely
to be effective against the Soviet
Union or Red China only when
national interests they consider
important are not involved.
The third level OF possible U. N.
action is police work. The
UNEF in Egypt. while valua-
BILE, is not really a police force;
it is half way between an OBJ
servation team and an army, but
nearer the former than the lat
ter-nomenclature and superficial
appearance Notwithstanding. A
true police force would be an
army equipped to impose its win
in the face of active resistance.
In the Lebanese case, as of this
writing, the two devices of OBJ
servation and mediation have
been the principal reliances. When
Mr.. Hammarskjold saw President
Nasser in Cairo, according to best
information, Col. NasSer told him
(al that there was very little in
filtration going on; tb) that such
as there was was unofficial, that
is, was being done by individuals
hard to control, and (c) that he,
NaSser, would see what he could
do to cut down on it, at least
pending the July "a presidential
election in Lebanon.
This latter promise is, of
course, the crucial point. If full
filed, it may turn the tide. If not.
and in any future case where the
U. N. deals with a party less sus-
-ceptible to pressure, it may well
be necessary to venture into the
third level of military force.

We Add Stote-th 49th and Biqqest

Since February IA. 1912. when
Arizona became a State, the
United States has consisted of
48 States and 2,974,726 square
miles. But last week, except for
certain legal formalities, the
Union added one State and $685.
400 square miles to its total area.
The new member was Alaska,
whose representatives have been
knocking at the statehood door
for some % years. When the door
was finally opened on Monday by
a Senate vote of 1920 for state
hood, it meant extending the
United States proper to within
SIS miles of deznocracy's most
menacing enemy-Soviet Russia.
The House had passed the bill
earlier. President Eisenhower is
certain to sign it. and Alaskans
are certain to approve it in the
required referendum. The Senate
House action, in admitting a non-
contiguous area to the existing
United States, shattered a prece-
dent as old as the Republic. And
with the precedent no longer

Politics Held in Check

As, of yesterday, the Russian
delegation and their allies of Po-
land, Czechoslovakia and Ro-
mania had given no sign that they
were ready to wreck the meeting
on political grounds. Although an
editorial in Pravda repeated the
Soviet position that any agreement
at Geneva on the control of a
test suspension must be pred
icated on a United States COM
mitment to such a suspension in
advance. the delegates of the So
Wet bloc were continuing to dis
cuSS ways and means of max
ing sure no one was cheating on
a test ban, without raising the
question that Secretary of State
Dulles had carefully character
ICED in advance as political"
1t was still too early to predict
the probable course Of the &C.

Rejects Inspection

But Moscow. for reasons of its
own that remain unclear, quickly
and fatty rejected the American
inspection proposal. The Kremlin
demanded cessation Of the SAC
flights, and refused the inspection
offer as a transparent device to
permit United States surveillance
of Soviet defenseS."
But Mr.. Khrushchev's most re-
cent letter, delivered at the State
Department last Wednesday, ac-
cepted a proposal made by Mr..
Eisenhower six months ago in q
letter to the then Soviet Premier
Nikolai A. Bulganin. With some
minor reservations, Mr.. Khrush-
chey declared the Soviet Union
prepared for a meeting of Soviet
and American experts to work out
some system Of mutually-accept-
able guarantees against surprise
attacks.
"In the nearest future :"
added Mr.. Khrushchev in his let
ter, lit would be useful for us to
study together what are the
possibilities In this respect upon
which we could build If we then
decide to do So" The decision to
do SO, the Soviet Premier made
plain, was a matter for a summit
conferences goal which. despite
some evidences Of a cooling atti-
tude, the Kremlin still insists must
be achieved.
The weeks activities once again
revived. albeit tentatively, the
long-cherished hopes of most Of
the world that enlightened self
interest, both East and West,
would demand some sort of effec-
tive control Of the increasingly
dangerous ornaments race-this
time a race of the atom rather
than Of gunpowder. Essentially,
however. there were no real in
dications that the far-apart po-
sitions of the Soviet bloc and the
West were nearer resolution.

sistency on both sides. In general.

been present to counsel caution.
indifference. and paralysis In the
Lebanese case.
There has been the argument Of
practically. A U. N. police force
is a costly venture. Who would
pay the bill? Big-power troops
might be politically disadvanta-
geous in such a force. Is small
country manpower available?
Would q U. N. force succeed, or
would it just get begged down in
a long, frustrating guerrilla war
like the one the French have on
their hands in Algeria?
There has been the argument
of fear. Would U. N. intervention
run an unacceptable risk of So
Wet counterintervention? Would
President Nasser order the pres
ent UNEF of his territory in re-
prisal for U. N. action against
him?
There has been the argument
Of domestic jurisdiction. Is the
Lebanese crisis at core a political
struggle between factions within
the country, rather than a grab
for power from outside? If so, is
not the u. N. barred from acting
by Article 2, paragraph Z Of the
U. N. Charter, the domestic
Jurisdiction provision?
Other Possibilities
It Is possible to imagine parallel
arguments being raised, with at
least equal force and paralytic eff
feet, against U. N. action to rescue
a country on the periphery of
the Sino-Soviet empire, threat
ened by Communist-sponsored.
Communist financed, and even
Communist-fought civil war.
There would always be the
practical problems of money. will
ing manpower, and military ca
pacity until or unless the U. N
we're to build and finance a per-
manent police force of its own, a
project which clearly is many
years away from realization.
There would always be the dam
ger that If Communist designs
were being frustrated, the Soviet
Union would step in openly to
support its collaborators. If Soviet
threats are to have as much psy-
Geological effect as they have had
in recent years--in Suez in 1856.
in the Tlrkish-Syrian crisis last
winter, and in Lebanon this sum-
mer-the Kremlin obviously will
be tempted to go on issuing such
threats. They are likely to be a
permanent feature of the diplo-
matte landscape.
There would always be confu-
sion, at least in some minds, over
the extent to which a civil con-
flict was domestic and the extent
to which it was provoked and
supported from outside. 1t would
be a clumsy job of subversion
indeed which was clearly identi-
fable as such from the outside.
Thus if the Balkan satellites,
for example, were to send pro-
Vocateurs by the thousands into
Yugoslavia to promote a "spon-
taneous" uprising against "devi-
ationist" Tito, or if Red China
were to sponsor trouble in Burma
or South Wet Nam, the U. N.
