cannot be challenged.
He is not a newcomer to the
national political scene although,
of course, he never before made
such a splash.
In 1856 he was California cam
paign manager for Adlai Steven

delegation to the Democratic Ma
tional Convention. He has been a
member of California delegations
to national conventions since 1910.

THE NATIONAL SCENE
California: The Democrats at Last?

The shifting sands of political
preference in California, so evil
dent in last Tuesdays primaries,
began their first slight tremors
in the presidential election two
years ago. In most States,
President Eisenhower increased
his 1852 majorities by wide mar
gins, but in California, the Presi-
dents majority was narrowed.
Also in 1856, the State Senate
was organized by the Democrats
for the first time since 1889 and
a 2-to-1 Republican margin in
the Assembly was reduced to a
mere four-Seat lead.
1t was in the face of this, plus
a clearly evident national trend
toward Democrats, that Senator
William F. Knowland began
what he hoped would be a
journey ending in the White
House. The first leg of that ex-
petition, of course, was the Cali
fornia governorship.
The grimly obdurate Senator
is not unaccustomed to entering
a fray with head down at full
charge, to emerge standing up.
And besides, he could recall that
in 1852 he won the nomination
of both parties in the primaries
and rolled up the largest vote in
California history in the Novem-
Der election.

The World Rivalry

Inevitably, then, the appraisals
of foreign policy, whether that
being made by the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee or by the
State Departments own ire
examination" procedures, are
conducted against the background
of the cold war. Among the
American diplomats and political
leaders engaged in the searching
evaluation, the ultimate yard
stick is that of United States
gains or losses in the continuing
rivalry with Soviet-led world
communism.
Last Tuesday, the State De-
partment's chief diplomat for
European Affairs, C. Burke Ell
brick, outlined American basic
policy for the inquiring Senators
and told them that United States
foreign policy, measured by re-
suits achieved, was basically
sound. All that is needed, Mr..
Elbrick said, is improvement in
application.
He listed what he called fav-
orable results of American policy,
naming the Marshall Plan for
Europe'S economic rehabilitation
and the effectiveness of the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization as
examples. American policy, he
said, had succeeded in containing
the Soviet drive to dominate the
world. More important, Mr.. FL
brick told the Senators, was
progress toward creating "incen-
tives which will induce the Soviet
Union gradually to alter its basic
policies, to abandon its ambitions
for a universal empire and to
enter sincerely into peaceful and
constructive cooperation with
the rest of the world"
But the Assistant Secretary,
echoing the familiar contention
of his boss, Secretary of State
Dulles, warned that successes SO
far did not Offset the greatest
danger that "all available evil
dence indicates that the Soviet
rulers are still firmly determined

the Republican increase.
Senator Knowland was not Wis
IDLY perturbed by the Tuesday
totals. maintaining that the prim-
aries provided only a preliminary
skirmish. His supporters pointed
out that the Senator's duties as
minority leader kept him in Wash
ington during the heat of the
campaign; he made less than a
dozen brief visits to the battle
field while the skirmish was in
progress Many of his admirers
believe that his great campaign
ing skill may upset Mr.. Brown in
the fall, for the Senator will have
several weeks after Congress ad-
journs in which to prove again
his ability on the stump.
But the Knowland hopes pro-
vide only weak basis for betting.
If the popular Mr.. Brown does
turn out in November to be the
leader California Democrats have
been searching a half century
for, the impact on national poll
tics will be great and far-reaching.
Vice President Nixon, whose
lack Of success in concealing his
own White House ambitions has
been notable. favored Senator
Knowland with a strong pre-
primary Endorsement. A Brown
victory. then. would be a Nixon
rebuff in his own State. thus in
viting a strong opposition to Mr..
Nixon at the 1860 Republican
National Convention.

Victory Was Expected

First, let it be said that Cali
fornians we're not particularly sur
prised when Mr.. Brown swamped
Senator Knowland In the primary.
Private polls have been forecasting
for months that he would. Mr..
Brown had everything working
for him.
Senator Knowland alienated
labor with his "right-to-work"
(open shop plank. Labor worked
hard, and will continue to work
hard, for Mr.. Brown.
Senator Knowland, although he
announced early, spent little time
campaigning in the State. He
left that to his lieutenants. OBJ
viously, this was mistake.
Also, many Bay area business
men are disenchanted with Sem
ator Knowland. Many of them. for
example, believe his championship
of Nationalist China is taking
trade away from San Francisco's
port. Communist China would be
a much better customer.

would assuredly be reflected in
Democratic gains in the State
Legislature. where the seven adj
ditional congressional seats CAL
ifornians expect to get after the
1860 census will be apportioned.
Democrats also were cheered by
the results from the primaries
held to nominate candidates to fill
the seat being vacated by Senator
Knowland.
The Republican nomination was
sought by Gov. Goodwin Knight,
a popular liberal who has in the
past been immensely attractive to
Democrats. and George Christie
pher, the Republican Mayor of
San Francisco.
Gov. Knight won his party's
nod-at considerable cost-and
will face Representative Clair
Engle of the rambling I'd district
in Northern California, who was
unoppoSed for the Democratic
nomination.
In this three-way contest in
which all candidates were cross
filed, Mr.. Engle received ass per
cent of the vote, Mr.. Knight 81
per cent. and Mr.. Christopher
22.5 per cent.

Gen. de GouNe:
Affirm Hand

Gen. Charles de Gaulle's first
week as Premier of a confused and
bewildered France seemed to
demonstrate that the one-time
leader of the Free French had lost
none Of his iron will or his Gallo
fire. He journeyed to Algiers, focal
point of the defiance of Paris au-
thority that resulted in the De
Gaulle return to power. But he
went to assert authority. not to
congratulate those who had defied
it.
In a swift-moving three-day
tour of Algeria's major cities,
Gen. de Gaulle made several
emotion-charged speeches, all Of
them cloudy in content. He
almost ignored the civilian MEM
bers Of the Committee of Public
Safety that took control Of
Algeria from its regular govern
ment. His most outspoken sup
porter, Jacques Soustelle, and the
wrathful Rightist Leon Delbecque,
called the key figure In the May
Is instruction, we're shunted

To the cheering French colo
nists who had sought his return
to power as a sure guarantee Of
continued French domination Of
Algeria's million Moslems, the
general called for Indignation Of
Frenchmen and Moslems into a
new nation of 10 million French
men," but carefully avoided any
reference to the colonists' demand
that Algeria be made a province
of metropolitan France.

before a State legislative commit
tee about capital punishment.
Mr.. Brown has a habit Of think
ing out loud. Apparently he had
never got around to talking out his
views on this particular issue. He
began by defending capital pun
ishment. He wound up deciding
he was against it.
Its not that he's wishy-
washy," one Of his aides explained.
Its just that he's completely
honest.
He's a liberal compared to
Senator Knowland, but not as lib
eral as some members of his party.
And he's not an intellectual.
He favored State control of
tidelands oil, despite the national
party'S opposition.
He favors a State FEPC. He
favors public power development.

Trade Reaction Cool

But initial reaction in official
administration quarters was cool,
If not downright chilly. Some
officials recalled that Mr.. Khru-
Shchev has several times voiced
confidence in the ultimate SUI
premacy of Soviet production,
both industrial and agricultural,
over American. Others pointed to
the Battle Act. which forbidS
financial aid to nations supplying
strategic goods to the Soviet
Union or it's satellites.
More optimistic voices, however.
pointed to President Eisenhower's
assurances last January to former
Premier Bulganin that peaceful
trade between the two nations
would meet no obstacles here.
Cash-and-carry trade thus ap-
peared possible; the stumbling
block was the financing Of large
scale purchases.
Mr.. Khrushchev walloped Yugo-
SlaVla once again, this time harder
than ever. On Tuesday the Pre-
mier, who only two weeks ago
congratulated President Tito on
his birthday, declared that the
1948 Stain custer Of Yugoslavia
from the ranks of the Communist
faithful was "basically correct"
Such "revisioniSts" as the Yugo-
slavs, Mr.. Khrushchev said, we're
a Trojan horse" and "spies for
the imperialist camp" In 1855
and later, Mr.. Khrushchev had
appeared to accept the Tito thesis
that there were many roads to
socialism" But events since then,
most notably Yugoslav sympathy
for the Hungarian uprising in
1856. seemingly have changed the
Khrushchev mind.

The conduct Of foreign policy
under the American constitutional
system is the prerogative of the
Chief Executive. His Secretary
of State is his counselor and adj
wiser. And the Senate of the
United States Is, in effect, his
check rein.
Last week the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee was taking
q careful look at American foreign
policy against the background of
recent events around the world.
Not an investigation but rather a
study, the Senators insisted, with
the object of evaluating present
policy and its successes'or failures.
Politics, Of the usual partisan type,
was ruled out by bipartisan con-
sent.
The violent demonstrations
against Vice President Nixon in
Caracas, Lima, and Bogota; the
burning of United States Informa-
ton Service libraries in Lebanon
and Algeria; a rising tide of anti
American feeling discernible in
many parts Of the world; open
hostility to American policy among
many leading politicians of France,
one Of the Big Three alliance on
which is built the North Atlantic
Treaty OrganiZation-these events,
coming dramatically close together
in few troubled weeks-served
to focus the senatorial attention
on Americas relations with the
rest of the world.
Underlying all the strategy and
most Of the tactics of American
foreign policy since the end of
World War II, of course, has been
the clammy reality Of the cold war
with the Soviet world. Thus riot
ing in Caracas and library-burn-
ing in Beirut; "Yankee-go-home"
slogans scrawled on Frankfort
walls and anti-Western machina-
tons in the Middle East; revolt in
IndoneSia and street fighting in
Ceylon; all are linked inescapably
with the East-West conflict for
advantage in divided world.

SAN FRANCISCO.-Before last
tuesday. few people outside OF
California had paid much at
IGNITION to Edmund g. (Pat)
Brown, the States attorney gen.
eral and Democratic nominee for
Governor.
Then, in the primary balloting,
he out-polled Senator william F..
Knowland, who will be his Re-
publican opponent in November,
by more than half million votes.
Now he's political prodigy.
Who is this upstart? What does
he have that enabled him to give
Senator Knowland the political
scare of his life? Is he going to
send the Senator back to private
life in November, quashing once
and for all the minority leaders
dreams Of the White House?
Could Mr.. Brown transfer his
California popularity to the ma
tional scene? Is he the hero to
lead the Democrats to power in
1860?

Accepted Defeat in Triol

He accepted defeat in a murder
trial because he wasn't satisfied
with the testimony of his own
star witness
An ex-Capone mobster taking it
on the lam from Chicago turned
up very dead in San Francisco
one day in 1947.
For two years Mr.. Browns staff
labored. Finally, they thought
they had the answers. The hoods
were brought to trial.
Anita. VenZa. who claimed she
heard the murder plot being
Matched, was Mr., Browns star wit
ness. But she wavered under
cross examination. Mr.. Brown
worried about her testimony.
Two days after the case went
to the jury, Brown asked that her
testimony be diSregarded.
The evidence" he regretfully
announced, was untrustworthy.
The case was dismissed.
Another time he was testitying
