Tense, as those who remember the
famous Sweet case in Detroit well
know. We spent thousands of dol
lars and risked the life Of Thur
good Marshall to defend Negro
citizens of Columbia, Tenn, after
a riot there in 1916. To assert,
as some persons are now trying to
do, that the NAACP does not be-
ieve in Negroes defending them
selves is sheer nonsense, spouted
for the purpose of dividing our
ranks and furnishing our enemies
with propaganda weapons to use
against the whole cause"

IL started. Of course. with
Macmillan's conciliatory ges-
lures designed to overcome
the Soviet ..'fears and 'sus-
picions" Of Western intentions
which had become the favor

in London. So the British
Prime Minister tackled the
possible ban on nuclear tests
which has been the subject
Of conferences between the
East and West at Geneva for
the last half-yesr.. The talks
had been stalled by the
Soviet demand for a veto on
all inspection and control
systems proposed by the West.
Khrushchev took the position
that inspection would merely
give the West a chance to
send in spies to wander

the deadlock. The offer was
made that. since the dispute
centered around control OF
underground and strato-
Sphere tests, any ban on
nuclear tests should initially
apply only 10 explosions IN

such explosions are relatively

poSal. even though by this
time he knew full well that
the United States had already

when the British delegate nc
Geneva spoke against the
proposal, as he was instructed
TO do from London, the Soviet
delegate arched his eyebrows
and. in mock surprise. said:
"You mean you are opposing
the British plan?"
The London Daily Tele-
graph. discussing the Incl
dent, said that 'the skill
and ruthlessness Of Soviet
diplomacy are sim under

ment. The Telegraph-which
is Britain's most loyal sup
porter of Macmillan-added:
WAS it thought that even a
private hint by the Prime
Minister as a separate British
view would not be exploited
in public by Mr.. Khrushchev
when it suited him to do so?
=. What other confidential
British ideas will Mr.. Khru-
shchev be able to divulge at
the appropriate moment so as
to break up the unity Of the
Western front?"
Maybe even the school Of
thought which coined the
word 'inflexibility" with ref

that were so much criticized

RALPH McGILL

Three men of diverse back
grounds, politics and positions
have discovered they share
certain philosophic concepts
about world problems. Be-
cause Of this a cautious opti-
mism grows about the future
Of this Nations foreign policy.
They are Vice President
Nixon, Secretary Of State
Herter and Senate Foreign
Relations Chairman Full
bright.
Both the Vice President and
Secretary Herter had greatly
respected the vigor and in
tegrity Of Secretary Dulles,
They had not always agreed
with his policies. This feeling
had to be private. Senator
Fulbright, of course, had been
baying on the Dulles trail for
years. He, too, entertained
respect, but there was no rea-
son not to be vocal in OPPOSE
ton.
These three men are by no
means average Americans.
Mr.. Herter. Partisan born and
Hafvard-educated, is not re-
gafded as one of the legend
airy Boston aristocrats. Vice
President Nixon came up in
something Of the Horatio Al
ger tradition. Senator Full
bright's emergence from the
depths of the OzarkS, with a
Rhodes scholarship along the
way, has some Of that same
f1ctional flavor.
It is almost certain that
Secretary Herter's image of
the Republican Party would
horrify the more extreme
right-wing Republicans. Vice
President Nixon's Republican,
ism. while more professional,
is an amalgam of his own.
Senator Fulbright, of course,
is a Democrat and an intel
lectual who is captive 10 a

At well past the halfway
mark in its deliberations. the
top-heavy Democratic Con-
gress reflects the very eau
tious moderation of Senator
Johnson of Texas fully as
much as the Congresses of his
hairline majorities did. Fur
thermore, no responsible leg
islator believes that the end
result sometime this summer
will be different.
The general expectation is
that the whole record of Con-
gress will. place it a point
or two to the left of the course
chartered by President Eisen-
hover; no more. This is a
fact of their political life
with which Democrats must
live. just as right-wing Re-
publicans must accept their
internationalist President.
1t, will not be changed by
the fact of Senator Johnson's
candidacy for President which
has had to be admitted since
the Texas Legislature smooth
ed his path to certain re-elec-
ton as Senator well in adj
vance of the national con-
vention at Los Angeles. The
Senator is lining up campaign
aides in border States; they
expect to offer him as a
strong moderate at the helm,
rather than as an advocate of
particular policies and issues.
This should surprise no
body and certainly does not
surprise the homefolks in
Texas. To their knowledge, he
has never knocked anybody,
except of course the people
who knocked him, and they

committee. He, too, has trav-
eled and used the time and
opportunity to learn. AS his
Tennessee friends say, "Al-
bert has now seen the
monkey and heard the owl"
The Senate members have
a respect, and what might be
called a working arrange
ment, with the House. Chester
Bowles, a first-rate man in
foreign affairs, is available
there. Nor are these all the
competent men. The Senate
and House committees in
general are stronger than
ever before.
II the President does not
seek "advice"-as he almost
certainly will-he may expect
Senator Fulbright and his
committee to come a-knock-
ing at the White House door.
Vice President Nixon also
has seer the monkey and
heard the owl. In addition to
a knowledge Of Europe and
South America, he knows the
explosive content Of all the
yeasty ferment Of new, violent
nationalism. poverty, misery
and the strong wine Of in
dependence in Africa. The
fact that many peoples de-
manding it are not ready for
the responsibilities of free
dom is beside the point. They
are going to have 1t. He and
Senator Fulbright are impor-
tant factors in what Secre-
tary Herter means by team
work"
These three men, and their
philoSophie agreement in for
eign affairs, remind us that q
stool is disable only If 1t has
three sound legs of equal
length. For the first time in
a good many years that
illustration takes form - the
executive branch of the Pres
ident and Vice President, the
Secretary of State, and the

Committee.

The consensus OF politically
informed sources In Washing
ton Is that there Ia no longer
a question III" the summit
conference will take place
but only Of where and when.
The last doubts and misgiv-
ings Of President Eisenhower
about attending a conference
Of heads Of states which he
used 10 describe In private as
at the best OF q highly
questionable value" have now
faded away.
While Presidential Adviser
John Foster Dulles has not
changed his views about the
futility Of such a gathering.
he Is too III 10 be able TO play
an important role In the for
mutation Of the administra-
tons policies. Secretary Her
ter has the best intentions
Of following his predecessors
pattern. But he is q new
broom and feels far more
than Mr.. Dulles the impact
Of the Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committee, which is
overwhelmingly in favor Of
not only one but a multitude
Of summit meetings.
Senate Majority Leader
johnson expressed the views
Of the Democrats last March
when he stated from the floor
OF the Senate: I'D rather
exchange words than bombs
with the Russians. This is
also, to an even greater de-
gree, the sentiment Of the
real policymakers of the For
eign Relations Committee:
Messrs. Fulbright, Humphrey
and Morse, who dominate
that powerful group Of Sen
atorS in which the Republic
cans have so little voice.
But outside this influence
on the thinking of President
Eisenhower and his Secre-
tary of State, there is the

of reaction In Arkansas. But,
happily, none of this touches
on his performances on deci-
Sions in the field of foreign
affairs.
In their separate paths to-
ward their present positions,
these three men attained, by
study, observation and expe-
rience. a philosophy about
their country's position, needs
and responsibilities as a
world power, which is re-
markably similar. They diff
fer greatly in concepts of
domestic politics and policies.
But in the field of interna-
tional politics they meet On
common ground.
The Constitution Of the
United States calls upon the
executive branch to create
and direct foreign policy. 1t
equally requires that the
Chief Executive have "the
advice" of the Senate
This it has not had. 1t is
perhaps unkind, but none
theless true, to say that for
too long q time the Senate
committee, because Of in
adequacies in the chair and
membership. could not really
provide advice. The Presi-
dent, indeed, could well have
been forgiven for not seek
ing the conStitutionally re-
quired advice" save in the
most perfunctory manner.
Senator Fulbright is known
to have suffered the legend
airy tortures of the damned
because of the Illustrations
of this period.
Today, with Senator Full
bright in command and with
some very competent men on
both the Senate and House
committees. there will be no
shortage of competent ad-
