Protect the Potomac

The Civil AeronauticS Administra-
ton has taken step in the right direc-
ton by promising full consideration of
proposals which would route Chantilly
Airport sewage toward Occoquan Creek
instead of the nearby Potomac River.
Study Of these schemes merely as
possible alternatives, however, is not
enough. The agency should Immediately
abandon any further thought of its ear
lier preference for an airport sewer line
to the Potomac just above Washingtons
critically important water supply point.
CAA officials must be fully aware by
now that local governments and plan
ming agencies of the entire area are
dedicated to the task of keeping this
section Of the river free from pollution.

'FHst-Closs Fiqhtin' Man

Field Marshal Viscount Bernard
Law Montgomery, Deputy Supreme
Commander of NATO, retires from
active military duty this week end. At
10, he has been professional soldier
for so years and "f1rSt-clasS fightin'
man." He is the last of the great
military figures of World War II to
hang up the uniform.
Through his long and colorful
career, the dapper Monty managed to
rub lot OF military "fur" the wrong
way. He was a perfectionist in all
things, and most particularly in his
application of military strategy and
tactics His meticulous preparations for
battle often aroused impatient criticism
and he squabbled brusquely with many
Of his allied colleagues at one time or
another. To his own armies, however,
Monty had no peer as he led them from
one victory to another-in North Africa,
Sicily, Italy, on the Normandy beaches,
in Northern France, and finally across
the Rhine into Germany. Perhaps the
best military judgments on the Mont
gomery ability were voiced by the
Supreme Allied Commander, General
Eisenhower, who credited success of the
Normandy invasion sin large measure
to careful planning and thorough train
ing under his guidance of alp echelons
of engaged troops" And to Monty'S
critics, General Eisenhower offered the
reminder that che never once sustained
major defeat"
In the postwar years, Marshal
Montgomery has continued his contri-
buttons to controversy as well as to the
military cause of the Western powers.
On several occasions he has visited the
United States, including Washington. 1t
would be good to see him back soon.
Even in multi, his wit no doubt will
be as sharp as ever.

Eyes on Warsaw

In their general policy addresses to
the United Nations yesterday, Secretary
of State Dulles and Soviet Foreign Min
lister Gromyko agreed on only one thing
namely, that the situation in the For
mosa area constitutes great and ON
nous threat. Beyond that, more or less
as usual, they. were poles apart, with
Mr.. Gromyko giving vent to anti
American invective bitter enough to sug-
gest that the Kremlin is in no mood
to respond affirmatively to President
Eisenhower's recent appeal to Premier
Khrushchev to urge moderation on the
Chinese Communists and strive to find
"a common language for peace"
Nevertheless, although all this has
served to nurture pessimism, the fact
remains that ambasSadorial talks be-
tween our country and Red China are
still going on in Warsaw. AS Mr.. Dulles
has explained to the General Assembly,
what the United States seeks in these
talks is "a prompt cease-f1re and equit-
able conditions which will eliminate
provocations and leave for peaceful
resolution the different claims and
counter-claimS that are involved" in
the crisis. Stated another way, our goal
is to persuade Peiping to join with us in
a remuneration of armed force and to
turn to the instruments of negotiation
and Cancellation in an effort to work
out mutually satisfactory agreement
regarding the Quemoy- Matsu coastal
Islands and Tsiwan (Formosa).
Accordingly, as far as this grave
issue is concerned, the eyes of the world
will be fixed anxiously on Warsaw in
the days Immediately ahead. Judging
from surface appearances there seems
to be little ground for optimism that
the Chinese Communists who presum-
ably feel that the United States has
Unanswered itself into box by sup
porting the Nationalist on Quemoy-
will accept our American proposal Mr..
Dulles, however, has expressed the hope
that peaceful solution can be found
during the current negotiations. On the
other hand, as he has told the Assembly,
our country is prepared to place the
whole matter before the U. NJ if the
talks get nowhere.
In any event, speaking to all nations
through Mr.. DalleS, the United States
has made clear that it is earnestly in
tent-even though ready to counter
force with force if need be-to estab-
fish peace in the FormoSa area in way
that would not prejudice any just claims
that Red China may have. If Peiping
and Moscow act accordingly, with re-
straint and willingness to negotiate
honestly and fairly, the world will have
good reason to hope for solution eff
fective enough to head off the danger
of major war breaking out in the
far Pacific.

Time for the Showdown

TeamSter President James r. Hoffa
seems "hell-bent" on a showdown with
practically everybody-the Federal Dis
trict Court, the court-appointed moni-
tors of his union, the Senate RacketS
Committee, the rank and file of Teamster
membership and the public interest at
large. 1t may indeed be time for such
a showdown.
Hoffa's record, in and out Of labor
affairs, hardly needs reviewing. When
not in trouble somewhere he is on the
brink of it somewhere else-from con-
gressional inquiries to local arrests for
picketing violations. When the dis
credited Dave Beck retired" from the
Teamster presid ency last year, Hoffa got
himself elected" to fve-year term as
successor. On grounds the election was
rugged, union minority took the issue
to court where a consent decree pro-
vided that board of monitors should
supervise cleanup of TeamSter adj
ministration practices. Meanwhile, the
AFL-CIO tossed the Transfers out-be-
cause of corruption in its leadership.
The monitors have had heavy going,
too, as Hoffa questioned their authority,
ignored their recommendations, set up
his own cleanup commission" called
new convention for next February to
have himself reelected" and finally
challenged eligibility of one, of the
three board members. The monitors
netitioned the court for stronger hand,
and an order forbidding the proposed
convention until there is compliance
with democratic procedures in union
elections On this subject, the Senate
committee heard testimony from one of
its Investigators that Sc per cent of the
votes cast for Hoffa last October were
illegal and only 40 per cent were def
nitely legal" under the unions own con-

Ivy for Nd. u.

I took occasion a year ago
to write to The Star apropos
the University of Maryland.
There is still standing there
an old tavern dating from
1898, built or owned, I be-
lieve, by my great-grand-
father. one Richard Ross.
This tavern is called Ross
borough or RoSsberg, the
name derived. from a farm
owned by my great-grand-
father or his father, i. e.,
Glen Ross" When 1 saw
Maryland University for the
first time I was struck blythe
baroness and new look of al
most all of the buildings.
Surely many have been. there
long enough to have planting
done.
I suggested that some
Maryland garden club take up
this matter. of course with
permission of the university,
and offered to start this prof.
ect with 500. Think how
many ivy plants that would
buy.
1 now suggest that all gar
den clubs in Maryland take
up this project. get together
to plan for planting in No
vember. 1t would mean a very
great deal to the future Of
Maryland University.

stitution. Chairman Mcclellan labeled
the election "a travesty Of disenfran-
chisement of the members who pay
their dues"
No doubt there will be lot more
IRE and smoke, In and out of courts
and committee rooms. Obviously, under
Beck and Hoffa, the Teamster rank and
file has had little opportunity to protect
itself. The public interest likewise has
no defense against this arrogant en-
ployment Of union power-unless the
courts or Congress provide it. 1t is, TO
repeat, time for the showdown.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1858
The Rule of Law

At the outset of his speech WedneS-
day evening to the National Conference
on Citizenship, Attorney General Rogers
referred to the "overhanging clouds"
in places where there is resistance to
specific DEGREES of the Federal courts.
These, he said, carry serious implica-
tons harmful to our system of govern
ment which is based on the principle
that we are a nation in which. the rule
Of law reignS supreme"
1t is a matter of regret that the
Attorney General felt he had to take
up this particular line of sermonizing.
The magnitude of the problem faced by
pliance with the court DEGREES on the
. school segregation issue cannot be min
imized. Yet one of the most significant
demonstrations in the clash of principles
provoked by the Supreme Court decision
four years ago has been the almost total
reliance, by both sides of the conflict,
on the processes of the law. The great
debate in this controversy is taking
place in the legislative halls and in the
courts. There has been a minimum of
violence. While Virginia, Arkansas and
other sovereign States are, in sense,
"defying" the Supreme Courts new
definition of the "law of the land" the
weapons used in this defiance are those
provided in the Constitution, the law
books and the annals of our experience
in establishing and perfecting the
American form of government.
Many decisions of the Supreme
Court have been proved, by acceptance,
to be correct. There are other cases
where continued resistance and refusal
to accept them have proved that they
were wrong. 1t is something less than
realistic, therefore, for Mr.. Rogers or
anybody else to say that our system
of government" respect for law or for
the Supreme Court as an institution,
is weakened by any lawful means
chosen by the States or the people to
resist what they may. think is wrong.
AS chief law enforcement officer of the
United States, the Attorney Generals
duty is to enforce the law. If he finds
that there is, in truth, Illegal defiance
of the rule of law" he must go into
action. What he may choose to do in
the courts, at any rate, may be more
effective than preaching respect for law.
Respect for law depends on what the
law says and is by no means automatic
or in every case even desirable.
There are, of course, no new threats
to our Constitution, or to our courts,
involved in this present struggle. What
is happening temporarily in this coun-
try was the subject of discourse more
than two thousand years ago by AriS-
totle: 1.-THE law has no power to COM
mand obedience except that of habit,
which can only be given by time, so
that a readiness to change from old
to new laws enfeebles the power OF
the law"
