Good Man, Tedbury!

Surely, as long as there is an Eng
land, there will always be a whitehall
historic center of British government,
guarded pictureSquely by impaSSive SOL
diers on horseback. 1t is reaSsuring to
know this, because the durability of
British tradition has contributed much
to Anglo-Saxon society and its survival.
Even so, in this age of deviation from
customs large and small, it is not dis
turbing to read that the impaSSivity Of
the Whitehall cavalry can "break ranks"
so to speak-can prove that those really
are men on horseback, not statues.
Trooper Tedbury, "a regular SOL
dier with an excellent army character"
broke the pattern the other day. Obvi-
ously fed up with the "Silver tongued"
chatter of tourist guide, and probably
with the tourists themselves, Trooper
Tedbury gave up the absolutely still"
routine to move his horse ahead one
pace, drop his unSheathed sword close
to the guides larynx and bark, You're
liar" The guides reaction was unre-
ported, but we are pleased that the War
Ministry upheld the tradition of British
imperturbability Trooper Tedbury was
forgiven for acting under "extenuating
circumstances" Good man, TedburyI

How Good a Promise?

AS Secretary Dulles has observed,
Premier KhruShchev's latest letter to
President Eisenhower, even though GER
tain aspects of it appear to be unac-
ceptable, docs seem to contain some
promise The promise is simply this:
That the Soviet leader, in what looks
like sharp modification of past pol
icy, now has affirmed that the Kremlin
stands ready to take part in technical
talks aimed at establishing policing
system against the danger of surprise
attacks
CuriouSly enough, Mr.. Khrushchev
. has made this statement as if he were
setting forth a new idea just born in
Moscow. Actually, of course, the sub
stance of the proposal was first advanced
by Mr.. Eisenhower when he submitted
his open skies" plan to the Geneva
summit conference two years ago. In
all the months that have since passed,
however, the Kremlin-until now-has
responded negatively by attacking most
of the plans features as things designed
to help American espionage" Indeed.
In the United Nations Security Council
as recently as late last April, the Soviet
Union bitterly assailed and vetoed
measure put forward by our Govern
ment in an effort to convene a meeting
of experts as first step toward setting
up an international Arctic patrol to
allay reciprocal suspicious and fears
growing out of RusSia's and our own
countryS ability to launch massive
transpolar air assaults against each
other.
But now, despite Moscows past rec
ord of nay-Saying, Mr.. KhruShchev has
Informed the President that the Krem-
lin thinks it would be useful" II civilian
and military experts of the United States,
the USSR and possibly some other states
met to study the policing problem and
to draft recommendations that could be
considered later at -of-govern-
ment summit meeting. If words mean
anything, this certainly seems to con-
stitute marked change in the Soviet
attitude toward the creation of machin-
cry that could give both us and the Rus
slams large measure of mutual protec-
ton. True, the promise implicit here may
actually be more apparent than real, but
1t at least suggests. as Mr.. Dulles has
said, that I'VE might do in the area
OF inspection against surprise attack
something comparable to what we are

volved If there were an agreement to
have supervised suspension" Of nuclear
testing.
Needless to say, every move that
Moscow makes, every new twist or turn
in its policy, must be looked at with a
wary and skeptical eye. Even so, II
Mr.. Khrushchev's new letter really rep
reSents a genuine change, III 1t means
that his government is honestly pre-
pared to discuss ways and means Of
establishing truly effective safeguards
against things like surprise attacks,
then the world can hope for some prog
ress-ro matter how slow or halting-
toward disarmament and trustworthy
peace. But the "ifs" inherent in all this
are still tremendously big, and we must
therefore keep our fingers crossed and
remain constantly on guard as long as
the Kremlin fails to match its seemingly
fair words with equally fair deeds.

Visit to Canada

President EisenhoWers impending
visit to Canada is not likely to result
In any swift or simple solutions to the
several complex problems that beset our
two countries But it promises to con-
tribute Importantly to that end, and
it therefore is being welcomed by our
good neighborS to the north as an event
of exceptional potential significance in
both political and economic sense.
AS for the problems at issue, they
include our restrictions on imports of
Canadian lead, zinc and oil. They in
clude, too, the effects of our farm
surplus disposal program. In Canada'S
eyes, these and kindred policies of the
United States threaten to do serious
damage to Canada'S economy, and cor
rective action is necessary as a mat
ter of international equity and in order
to prevent any major deterioration in
the uniquely close and friendly rela-
tionS that exist between us and the
Canadians.
The President is going to Canada
with the primary intent of speeding up
such action OF course, as he suggested
to his news conference the other day,
he does not expect that his talks with
Prime Minister Diefenbaker will succeed
in settling everything all at once, but
he does believe that they will be fruit

NAAcP Victory

The Supreme Courts unanimous
ruling in the controversy between the
State of Alabama and the NAACP is an
important, though not a final, victory
for the latter.
An Alabama court had held the
NAACP guilty of civil contempt for re-
fuSing to produce the names of its rank
and-file members in the State, and a
fine Of 100000 was imposed. 1t is this
judgment that the Supreme Court has
set aside, holding that the State failed
to show any interest in obtaining the
Membership list which was of sufficient
Importance to override the constitu-
tional right of the NAACP members to
band together in pursuit of their lawful
common objectiveS. The courts reason
ing was that disclosure of the mem
bership list would lead to retaliatory
measures which might be expected to
discourage membership in the organiza-
ton, and thereby render it incapable of
functioning effectively.
The Supreme Court was faced with
one problem in arriving at its decision.
Previously, it had upheld New York
statute requiring Ku Klux Klan chap
ter in that State to register and disclose
It's list of members. Obviously, the inten-
ton in New York was the same as in
Alabama-to discourage membership by
identifying the individual members and
exposing them to probable retaliation.
The court got over this hurdle, how
ever, by distinguishing the cases. The
NAACP, it said, is engaged in lawful
activity. But the court took judicial
notice of what it described as Klan
activities involving acts of unlawful
intimidation and violence" This circum-
stance, the justices said, made it proper
for New York to require disclosure Of
the Klan'S members
The NAACP case now goes back to
Alabama for a ruling on the question
whether the organization can be barred
from doing business in the State. On
this point, the Supreme Court said 1t
was not intimating "the slightest view"
If the NAACP also wins this one, how
ever, as probably will be the case, all
of the anti-NAACP laws enacted in
Southern States presumably will come
tumbling down.

Hoffo Riding Hiqh

1t was last March that the McClel-
Ian committee of the Senate, in a for
NAL report on its labor rackets inquiry,
described the Teamsters Union under
the overlordship of James r. Hoffa as
a "hoodlum empire" with "well-nigh
incalculable power over the (national)
economy" This was no exaggeration
The committee had uncovered plenty of
evidence to support its indictment.
The concern felt then about Jimmy
Hoffa's power and the ability of his
union to stop the Nations economic
pulse" could safely be multiplied many
times today. For Hoffa has now sue
ceeded in carrying out a long g-standing
threat to set up a national Conference
on Transportation Unity-in effect,
federation of transport unions operating
in every field of commercial traffic The
chairman, at least temporarily" will
be Hoffa.
As beginning, Hoffa'S TeamSterS
are being Joined by two powerful unions
in the maritime industry. One is the
International Longshoremen'S AsSocia-
tion-like the TeamSterS, booted out of
other union Affiliations because of its
corrupt leadership The other is the
National Maritime Union-headed, iron
ically, by Joseph Curran, a member of
the AFL-CIO Ethical Practices Commit

TeamsterS. 1t was announced further
that the Seafarers International Union,
a rival of the NAEII lookS 0uitb oroat
favor" on Joining the conference, and
that invitations have been issued to rail,
airline and all other labor outfits in the
transport industry.
There were, of course, solemn dis
chalmers by Hoffa that he intends to
become transportation czar" or that
the new conference might evolve into
federation at war with the AFL-CIO.
The objective, he explained, is only to
settle juriSdictional disputes and deal
with matters affecting progress and
stability in the transportation indus
try" But this country should not be
required to submit to Mr. Hoffa's defini-
tion of progress and stability" The
Hoffa plan provides the framework. at
least, for monopoly control over trans
port labor, and foreShadowS the power
to paralyze the Nation by bringing all
commercial traffic to a StandStill
1t is time for Congress to take a
hard look at this threat to the national
interest and screw up enough courage to
erect statutory safeguards against such
concentration of power.

Behaving Abroad

We think we are great, but
the other nations of the
world do not think we are as
great as we think we are. The
sooner we think of this, the
better off we will be with
other nations as friends and
the better respect we will
hold automatically by trav-
cling ambassadors. Most of
all we want is self-respect
for the democracy which we
believe in spreading to the
other nations. This is the
only way we can shed hatred
and open our eyes to what is
going on underneath instead
of what is going on with the
top ones in Government. Lit
tie people can do a lot OF good
and damage to this Nation of
ours
This is how I feel after
what l saw going on in Eu-
rope last summer. The ones
from our country who COM
planned to the people of other
nations for better living
standards while we Ameri-
cans were travelling, did more
damage than good. The ones
who took interest in what
was going on underneath did
a lot more good in un-
derstanding the policies of
others.

Fluffy takes a running

tail like a banner, and seizes
the cloth as high as he can
reach.
This clears his hind legs
and lets him swing free.
Once he has got such A

he swings back and forth like
a pendulum.
