Democrats Seen Trying to Soft-PedoI
Criticism of President During Crisis

country itself is being en-
dangered by something APP
preaching a hysterical repu-
diation Of the proper powers
Of the presidential ONCE.
They would say precisely
the same thing In public
even in Macy's window. as
the saying goes-but for their
awareness that this would
only heighten the destruc-
tive clamor they are hoping
somehow to quiet.
They are the first to point
out that the administration
has, indeed. made many
grave plumbers. They are
the first to say that the
public establishment now
beating about the President
is the inevitable reaction
from the extreme public
adulation Of the past so
carefully fostered by his
hackers. For the man who
is given credit for the sun
shine will later be blamed
for the rain.
But. having said all these
things, these Democrats have
other things to say. and some
Of them are these:
That many critics Of the
Presidents intervention in
the Middle East properly
stress its awkwardpess and

weeks.
As Congress drove fever

only question was whether

has, and here the occasion
took on the added dimension
Of his ambition to be PreSi-

lures were chiefly for vote

looked at his inconclusive
voting record and cherished
the same suspicion. Their
famous wisecrack is that they
wish the authors Of ''Profiles

profile and more courage.
What combination Of con-
viction, pride in his first

Yet many people who have

prestige is falling at a
frightening rate. 1t is declin-
ing in part by his own ac-
tons. But in part it is being
thrust downward by a storm
Of public and press criticism

worst possible time.
His credit and moral
authority with this country
and the world Is being cut
down as unreasoningly over
the Middle East crisis Of 1858
as it was unreasoningly in
fiated in the Middle East
crisis Of 1856.
There are beginning to be
ominous parallels with the
last two years Of the Truman
administration. Then, unre-
strained attacks on the White
House all but destroyed
presidential power to move
nationally in the Korean con-
flict.
Now, similar attacks on an
other occupant of the White
House are limiting his ability
to act, with any sure conf
dence. for American inter-
ests in the Middle East. The
really vital question now is
not. even whether the Pres
ident Is going to be wise;
it Is whether he Is going to

columnist but Of the most
senior and responsible men,

Turn for Better Seen in u. S. Pledge
OF Support Against Aggression

The worlds fever chart
continues is ups and downs.
Until last Monday there was
detection IN the free world
camp. Everybody was In
clined 10 believe that the
Observation-Disclosures team was
winning rapidly and that
even the system Of northern
tier alliances we had helped
forge IN the Middle East was
near collapse. II could not
survive. Il was said. after
the likely detection Of the
Baehdad government.
Then suddenly things took
q turn for the better. II may
be only a temporary improve
ment. II Is true. but Il Is Inn
portant all the same. The
Prime Ministers Of Britain,
Turkey. Iran and Pakistan
gathered In London. with Mr..
Dulles as an observer" I'M
stead Of discussing the pos
sible liquidation Of the '.Baeh-
dad pact" they actually
managed to put more life
into II.
mr.. Dulles came out strong
" for Its continuation. For
technical reasons, America
did not formally join the al
lance. yet Mr.. Dulles pledged
the full and unqualified sup
port Of the United States.
We assumed towards each Of
the members the full obliea-
ton not only to help them,
as In the case Of the NATO
alliance. but Mr.. Dulles also
assured the representatives
Of the three Middle Eastern
states Of Americas unquali-
ned support against any d.
rect or indirect aggression
from whatever quarter.
This Is particularly signif-
icant now when most observ-
ers in the area are expecting
q major uprising against the
Teheran government by the
Azerbaijanis and the Kurds.
Since July IS. when the King
Of IraQ and members Of his
cabinet were murdered by q
military junta. there was un-
easiness In the Iranian cap
ital. There was no actual
fear that the Shah would be
assassinated. But intelligence
reports indicated . new rest
lessness in the northern
provinces. There the Russian
agents have never ceased
their subversive activities
since 1855 when the Krem-
lin. under pressure Of the
then young United Nations,
was compelled 10 give up its
conquest Of Iran.
Mr.. Dulles commitment,
with the fun approval Of
President Eisenhower, that
We win resist to the limit Of
our power any "direct or IN
direct" aggression against our
Baghdad pact allies was
mama from heaven to all Of
them. It indicated that
Washington had not really
"caved In" before Mr..
Khrushchev and his asso-
clates. and that We intended
to support these three free
nations with everything we
have.
Other matters tending to

discussed at the London
meeting. Turkey. for in
