Politics in the Strauss Hearings

ate Republicans to accused
left-wingers Of various hues.
There is no need to weep
overmuch at the cries OF
these Republicans that the
Democrats are pushing them
around, as well as Mr..
Strauss. All the same, the
Strauss affair. too, is q per-
secution, II q far less savage
one. This time the victim Is
a right-winger. The objec-
tions to him have nothing
really to do with the Presi-
dents right to have his serv-
ices.
Mr.. Strauss spare, bris-
ting and perhaps unwisely
unterrified frame (tact and
the soft answer come hard to
hin) is simply being used to
hang up to public view GER

Ynents.
Here, the opposition Demo-
Gratis are saying, Is q Herbert
Hoover man, an ultracon.
sentative who does not like
public power, a big business
type. And he IL, in fact,
quite all Of that. Here, they
are saying, is an "anti-iIltel-
lectual," a man who de-
manded atomic weapons de-
velopment first and thought
Of fall-out and disarmament
second. This latter, he is.
Harsh or not, he fought with
courage and strength to pro-
tect this country in the atom
ic race. Maybe he was unwise
at times. But he was also In
dispensable.

is not. The odd truth Is that

The shaking up being given

have this one shortening:

Decision on GIs
In Jupun Hailed.
By Harry Bridges

TOKYO, May Is APo y
Harry Bridges, American West
Coast longshoreman leader, to-
day lauded a Japanese court
decision holding the presence
Of American troops in Japan
unconstitutional.
Addressing an Asian dock
workers conference he is spon-
soring, he said he hoped the
Japanese governments appeal
against the court decision will
fail and fail miserably."
The leftist labor leader also
attacked the 1851 japanese
peace treaty as the means to
make Japan "a base for the
militarists who committed the
horrible crime Of Pearl Harbor."
He criticized the American
administration Of Okinawa and
said the people and workers
there are held in q state of
near slavery" But he asked
his audience to trust the Amer
leans Notwithstanding the
facts I have laid before you"

and their end agreed on be-
fore the meetings opened.
The question Of the round

served the Soviet propaganda
TO show that the Soviet IN
ion took 10 heart the case Of
Germ any more than the
West. And our side could
boast that In the first en-
counter the East had TO bow
graciously 10 the unfiinching
will Of the representatives Of
the Western powers.
Similarly the matter Of
Poland and Czechoslovakia
participating In the Geneva
tea party was not only FORE
seen but also decided last
February after the French
objected strongly to the uni
lateral demand by Moscow.
The solution agreed on is to
permit Italy to attend some
sessions Of the conferences In
which the Czechs and Poles
will participate.
The Senate Democratic
whip and senior member Of
the. Foreign Affairs Commit
tee. Mike Mansfield. has in
sisted strongly in his talks
with representatives Of the
State Department that Italy
be given q more active role
in the concert Of free nations.
The once "decaying" Italy
has become in the last few
years one Of the pillars Of the
Western alliance. Her eco
nomic, moral and military
renaissance is about as mar
velous as that Of war
devastated Germany although
it took place q few years
later.
At the end Of the war
Italy was riddled with COM
munism, and there were
serious doubts that she would
be able to survive as q
free, democratic country. OF
course, it was realized that
the italian Communists were
nowhere nearly as dedicated
to the cause as those in
France, and Communist in

Of Italy's intellectual life was

States.

ton was held after the war.
with the late Christian Demo-
cratic leader, Alcide de
Casper, as the standard
bearer, the prospects for his
victory looked slim. But it
was realized that the cause
Of communism was strong at
that time in the peninsula
because the population was
starving. We not only rushed
food and supplies but also

There Ia q heavy political
fall-out in the Senate's cur
rent row over whether Presi-
dent Eisenhower's eight
month.cld appointment Of
Lewis L. Strauss to be Secre-
tary Of Commerce should be
ct last confirmed.
Indeed, one can readily
see in imagination an oni-
nous mushroom cloud rather
like those that arose over
the hydrogen bomb tests
which Mr.. Strauss pressed
when he was chairman Of
the Atomic Energy Com
mission.
Unpleasant and possibly
noxious political matter Is
raining down-upon the Sem
ate Republicans in general,
but most Of all upon the
modern.liberal Republicans.
The Strauss nomination Ii
under the most serious at
tack ever leveled by the
Senate at an Eisenhower
cabinet choice.
Many Democrats are hap

nominee, and are not being
too choosy about their weap-
ons. Old Guard Republicans
are defending him without .
backward glance. Well they
might, for this is the most
authentic regular" Republi-
can ever to hold high place
in the Eisenhower admins
tfation. Not the least OF
Mr.. Strauss troubles, in q
word, IL that he, himself, is

President of the United

Strauss represents much for
which these moderns do not
care at all.
Many moderate to con-

sense.
They too, are, on the
whole, less than mad about
Lewis Strauss ~ as q public
man, that Is. But they do
not relish the outwardly gem

roughing-up he is receiving.
What the attacking Demo-
Gratis are doing is trying Mr..
Strauss not so much for his
actions as for his ideas. They
are pursuing him for his
philosophy: they are indict-
ing him for his thoughts. At
bottom, they are seeking
nightly to prove what is
already self-evident and self
proclaimed - that he is .

Their charge that on many

In this area 1t has recently
done its most effective work.
There is little doubt that
in the 1858 campaign labor
voted more Solidly than ever
before. And more members
of labor unions voted than
perhaps had ever voted in
a nonpresidential campaign.
Labor was helped notably by
the presence of right-to-work
proposals on the ballots Of
several States.
A secret discovered by
labor's political experts is
now paying of. That Is that
a powerful factor In a union
mans vote was his wife's
opinion. With remarkable
aSsiduity labor has been cul-
tivating its wives for four
years. The effort has paid

Now not only union women
but the wives of union men
constitute the most formi-
dable POLITICAL weapon in
labor's arsenal.

this work, Esther Murray in
