Thomas L. Stokes

Tom Stokes came to Washington as
young man of % and went to work as
reporter for the United Press. One of
his first assignments was to help cover
the Knickerknocker Theater disaster. He
went on from there to become a good
interpreter of national news, an investi-
gator and campaigner lin the course
of which he won a Pulitzer prize) and,
finally, a columniSt.
1t was our privilege to publish his
column in The Star from 1949 until his
last illness began a few weeks ago. A
measure of the respect in which he
was held may be found in the fact that
news of his inability to continue writ
ing prompted guest" columns by many
Capitol Hill and cabinet notableS.
Apart from his role as commentator
on national and international events,
Tom Stokes was a man with a keen
sense of personal responsibility to this
community. One evidence of this was
his service with our Health and We'll
fare Council as an adviser in its public
relations activities
His was, indeed, keen eye and a
strong arm in Washington. We will miss
him-as fine newspaperman and as a
good friend.

For Better Government

The cause of better local govern
ment will be advanced by the revised
military policy under which Engineer
Commissioner yelling is assured of a
three-year term at the District Building.
While it had been the general under
standing In the past that the District
government assignment was to be of
three years duration, the trend in re-
cent years had been to cut the terms
short. The effect has been to depreciate
the Importance of the Engineer Com
miSSionerShip as an Army job and also
to deprive Washington of the services
OF officers who had become familiar
with the Districts unique governmental
setup.
Commissioner Wellings three i'm
mediate predecessors were reaSSigned
before their three-year terms here were
completed. They were General Lane,
who served 80 months; General Prentiss,
who stayed for % months, and General
Robinson, whose tenure was the shortest
OF all-10 months. In view of this
record, the Federal City Council, of
which General PrentiSs is president, had
urged the Chief of Engineers to place
the District Engineer Commissioner
assignment on three-year basis. The
Army Engineer Chief, General Emerson
c. ItSchner, has assured General Prem
tiSS that he favors the three-year term.
1t would be well If this assurance could
be spelled out in legiSlation-so that
subsequent chiefs of the Army Engineer
Corps could not change the policy again.

Lebanon Must Live

Lebanon'S Foreign Minister Malik
has been unequivocal and blunt in his
charge that massive interference" by
the United Arab Republic has "every-
thing to do" with the current violence
in his country-a violence which may
even endanger Lebanon's survival as a
free nation. Furthermore, in making
his charge and announcing that for
NAL note of protest had been addressed
to Cairo, Mr.. Malik cited supporting
evidence-including appeals to the Leb-
anese people to revolt, broadcast by
government-controlled radio stations in
Cairo and Damascus.
This is not, unfortunately, a new
tactic on the part Of the Nasser govern
ment in its naked campaign to Subvert
and dominate neighboring Arab states.
1t was applied in Jordan last year and
its failure then undoubtedly was due in
greatest measure to declaration by our
own Government that Jordan's indie
pendence was vital to the national
interest" of the United States. Ger
tainly our stake in the independence of
Lebanon-politically economically and
culturally one of the most advanced
countries of the Middle EaSt-is equally
great. 1t is only realistic, Also to rec
ognize that the determined Western
sympathieS of the beleaguered govern
ment of President Glamour, largely
responsible for its current troubles, call
for an extra measure of consideration
on our part.
At this point, as far as is known
publicly, the Beirut government has not
asked for outside support. Mr.. Malik
told news conference that the cabinet
had discussed the possibility of appeal
ing to the United Nations, but he would
not comment on possible Western in
tervention through the 1850 Tripartite
Declaration or the Eisenhower doctrine.
Actually, last years pronouncement on
Jordan was made without reference to
any of these formal nderStandings-a
precedent which might be followed in
the case of Lebanon.
IN declining at his news conference
yesterday to discuss the Lebanese crisis,
President Eisenhower referred to it as
delicate" and potentially "very grave"
The fact that he termed his own reluc-
tance to talk further as mot usual"
tended to emphasize the gravity with
which he views the threat to Lebanon
and to encourage belief that we do not

Its GraYest Hour

France now has arrived at what
seems TO be the gravest hour of It's tur-
bulent post war history. For the hour is
one In which this most sophisticated,
and perhaps most civilized" OF all ma
tions must worry not merely about the
survival Of It's bedeviled new govern
ment, but also about the survival OF
the Fourth Republic itself-the sur
vival, that is, Of its democracy, OF It's
continuation as a free nation capable of
governing itself without any totalitarian
dictate from the top.
Pierre Pnimlin, the country's new
Premier, is a good and able man. A
member OF the Popular Republican.
Movement, which is a moderate and pri-
marily Catholic party, he has won a
seemingly impressive amount of parlia-
mentary support from the National As
sembly, with the Communist members
abstaining on the vote electing him.
But this support has been reluctant at
best. 1t has been offered chiefly as a
counterweight to the Reds and the
extreme rightists, including particularly
the followers Of General de Gaulle. This
means that there is nothing reliable
about 1t. At any moment, in the super
charged emotional atmosphere that per-
meates Paris, 1t may dissolve in a way
that could lead either to a neo-Fascist
dictatorship or to the sort Of chaos on
which communism fattens and advances.
Meanwhile, the Pfiimlin government
must cope with challenge and crisis of
the first magnitude. In Algeria, a pop
ular paratroop leader named General
Jacques Massu has staged kind of coup
by setting up Committee of Public
Safety shades of the French Revolu-
tionD and demanding, in effect, that
France establish a military dictatorship
under Charles de Gaulle. Massu has
done this because of his fears-despite
assurances from the new regime in
Paris-that there may be negotiations,
spurred on by the United States, to bring
about an Algerian settlement inimical
to French interests. With admirable
firmneSS, Mr.. Pf1imlin and his cabinet
have responded with unequivocal orders
instructing General Salan, Algeria'S top
commander, to end this incipient insur-
rection. Unhappily, however, there is
some reason to doubt that mere direc-
tives will be enough to reverse what has
been set in motion.
Accordingly, in these extremely diff
ncult circumstances, the rest of the
Western world can only hope that Paris.
the city of light, and France, the nation
OF enlightment, will succeed in riding
out this storm in manner bef1tting a
glorious past and deep-rooted genius
for liberty. In any event, considering
how deeply the French people feel about
Algeria-how they regard it as an inte-
grail part of themselves in every respect,
emotionally, Intellectually and consti-
tutionally-free men everywhere must
Sympathize with their position and trust
that they will be able, somehow, to tri-
umph over the crisis now besetting them
and threatening not merely their own
land but the whole Atlantic community
as well.

To Save Boards Time

Recently I resolved to be-
come better informed about
the issues coming before the
Arlington County School
Board. / have now attended
two meetings MONDAY, April
% and Saturday, May 10).
What I heard amazed and
appalled, me.
Here we had five board
members and a rather large
group Of the administrative
and teaching staff Of the
schools spending a large part
Of their time listening to a
miscellany Of grievances of
dissatisfied individuals and to
ill-considered proposals from
self-appointed guardians Of
the public welfare. Also for
their listening pleasure, sew
eral letters from parent
teacher associations express
ing strong support and ap-
. proval of the schools and
their administrative and
teaching stats we're read and
duly filed.
1t is possible, of course,
that these proceedings are
not representative of what
usually occurs at board meet
ingS. If they are representa-
tive, however, /, as a taxpayer
and patron of the schools,
should like to suggest that
the board work out some sort
Of screening procedure that
will free it to spend more
time and its best energies on
matters of broad policy.
which affect significant num-
berS Of children, parents and
other taxpayers. The school
board cannot discharge its
responsibilities If it is forever
being harried by individuals
here and there who are dis
satisfied with one or more
actions taken by the board.
The kind of screening pro-
cedure / have in mind would
provide that before the board
hears grievances or listens to
well-meaning proposals, a
showing be made that the
grievances are matters of gen.
eral concern or that the pro-
posals have general support
from a substantial number of
identifiable citizens.
