DAVID LAWRENCE
Iynching' of Sherman Adams

tween a few hundred dollars
paid for a hotel bill or q gift
coat and tens Of thousands Of
dollars paid TO insure that
certain members Of Congress
will vote on legislation as la
Dor shall dictate? There is
none-if suspicion is the only
test.
Maybe the Adams case will
prove salutary. It will be
small comfort TO the man
himself, who is the victim,
though in a larger sense IL
could do a great deal Of good.
Hypocrisy. however, reigns
here and in the precincts Of
politics. The only persons who
are crucifled are those who
have the Ill luck to be made
the victims Of party pressure
as O result Of exposure by the
opposite party which happens
to be In control Of the inves-
tigative machinery in Con-
gress.
The probabilities are that
the Republicans will not win
the election just because they
think they now have Invested
themselves Of the smears Of
the Democrats by bringing
about the departure Of Sher-
man Adams from the White
House. On the contrary. there
viii be division in the Repub-
lican ranks because of the
episode. and many will voice
their protest against the
"lynching."
In the end, the Democrats
will win Congress because
they have no Scruples about
taking gifts or accepting mil
lions Of dollars from special
interests. This pays for the
propaganda that misleads the
voters and for the expenses
Of precinct work that brings
uniformed voters to the
polling booth to vote as the
. labor bosses have told them
to vote under penalty of los
ing their jobs in supposedly
"free America"

USIA Sets Up
New ~ Arm

The United States will step
up the propaganda battle OF
the air waves with the Soviet
Union through new television
arm Of the United States Infor-
nation Agency.
Creation Of the special tele-
vision service to aid in reach
ing foreign audiences with the
American story" was announced
by USIA today. Romney
Wheeler. NBC executive and
former newspaperman, has
been appointed director Of the
new service, effective Novem-
Der 3.
USIA Director George v. Al
len said the agency's television
activities viii be made available
to a growing number of free
world TV stations through the
new service. There are now
some $50 television stations
overseas. Mr.. Allen said, in
GLIDING 458 outside the Iron
Curtain. There are more than
20 million sets outside the Unit
ed States and Canada.
The special TV service will
supply overseas stations with
documentary films, special
events coverage and features
depicting various aspects of
American life. In the past such
activities have been handled by
USIA'S Voice Of America.
Before joining NBC in 1850,
Mr.. Wheeler was with the
Associated Press. He is a for
mer chief Of the A. p. bureau
in Amsterdam.
Mr.. Wheeler, At, Of Hunting
ton. N. Y, has been director of
European operations for NBC,
managing director of NBC In
ternational Great Brittany ,
Inc, and general European
representative, with headquar-
tiers in London.

he said.
my answer is again-we
must persist"
The diplomat also pointed
to the U. N. as the best agency
to solve the problem Of control
over outer space. He said he is
sure the General Assembly will
appoint a committee for study
of that subject.
Sir Leslie held out no hope
for U. N. establishment in the
forseeable future of a police
force derived from the smaller
powers to prevent small wars
from developing into big ones.

Upside-Down Drive for Summit

United States who believe an
agreement with Communist
Russia would be kept. that
a disarmament pact would
be honored, that a ban on
nuclear testing would be OBJ
served.
Only by the narrowest OF
1ast-minute margins did for
mef Atomic Energy Commits
sion Chairman Lewis Strauss,
Mr.. Dulles and our top mill
tary men convince Mr.. Eli
senhower that a ban on nu-
clear testing almost two years
ago would be dangerous in
the extreme for the free
world. Harold e. Stassen, the
Presidents adviser on dis
armament and chief negoti-
ator at the London Disarm-
ament Conference, was all
for taking the Communist
proposals at their face value.
But that danger was avert
ed. and Mr. Stassen went his
way shortly thereafter. The
indications recently have
been that Mr.. Dulles has
the Presidents full confidence
in matters Of foreign policy,
with the Secretary charting
the Nations course himself
with the Presidents complete
support.
Yet the clamor for a sum-
NIT conference, throughout
the free world, once again
will put great pressure on
the President. So great are
the stakes that we must only
hope that clear heads pre-
vail, that this most danger
GUS of recent Moscow in
trigues shall not succeed.

The intensified turbulence
with which the Soviet Union
and Communist China have
been conducting their agrees
sive policies in recent weeks
appears to be part Of a care
fully planned campaign aimed
to lead within the foreseeable
future to a summit confer
ence. This meeting Of heads
of state at the summit" II
the Communist gambit is sue
cessful. would be one Of far
greater disadvantage to the
West than the original sum-
init meeting so narrowly
avoided not long ago.
This is the Interpretation
being placed on current Red
maneuvers by responsible off,
cials in the highest levels Of
the administration. In their
view, the Communists are not
ready for war now. In a show
down they probably would do
anything possible to avoid a
war. including even major
concessions. But the Com
munist strategists think-and
believe they have good EVIL
dence-that the West will not
fight. or even let matters get
to the point where fighting
would be a possible alterna-
tive to negotiation.
The reasoning behind this
Communist analysis, our off,
Gals say, is on the record.
They believe the extremely
cool response of Britain,
France and other pro-West-
ern countries to the so-far
firm stand taken on the For
mosa crisis by President
Eisenhower and Secretary of
State Dulles shows clearly
that the United States is
alone. They also are we'll in
formed as to the successes
Of the anti-Chiang Kai-shek
forces in and out of the
Eisenhower administration.
They know well the Munich
minded sentiment for APP
peasement existing in the
minds of many Americans
whose motivations are simply
the avoidance of war.
Thus the offensive against
the offshore islands of Que
moy and the MatsuS, timed
to coincide almost exactly
with the opening OF the 18th
annual session of the United
Nations General Assembly, is
seen as the big play in a
campaign of intimidation ex-
pected to result in a wide
spread Western demand,
among our own people as
well as among our allies, to
sit down with the Commu-
nists and talk things over.
If the Communist strategy
is correct, the West would
be sitting down across the
table from the Communists
in the worst possible of stu

An innocent man went TO
the gallows of American poll
tics Monday night--convicted
not by "a jury Of his peers"
but by the political hangmen
of the hour. His head was
not bowed in shame. For his
conscience was clear. He
yielded only to the law Of
expediency, which enforces
its cruel verdict to satisfy
the passions of the mob, even
in politics.
For the political "lynching"
of Sherman Adams was no
less an injustice because it
was carried out under the
code" which demands that,
In order to win elections, sus-
picion must be accepted as
proof. The lifelong reputa-
ton Of an individual for hon.
esty and integrity must bear
now the stigma Of an invol-
untary resignation from a
high post in Government,
though necessarily couched in
the phrases Of a voluntary
act.
Sometimes. however, more
votes are lost by the sacrifice
Of a principle than are
gained by a seeming display
of virtue. Granted that Sher-
man Adams accepted gifts
from a close personal friend
doing business with Govern
ment agencies, and granted
that he performed for him
the same service in obtain
ing information that was
given to others who were not
friends. will men in public
