Key Man in Opinion of President

is the most teetotally old
fashioned Republican, the
"Ohio Republicans as they
have been called for two
generations.
That Humphrey would
to a large extent dominate
the Cabinet was thus more
or less inevitable from the
day he entered it. For the
Treasury post additionally
has lain close to the heart Of
nearly all COP. Admins
trations, as the Secretaryship
of State has done in nearly
all Democratic Administra-
tions.
The fact that Anderson is
likewise in a position Of DOM
nance is quite another thing.
Indeed it is an improbable
thing, for he is of a different
breed altogether. He has not
reached this point, according
to fellow Cabinet members
with whom this correspond
ent has talked, simply as
Humphreys heir. He has
come forward on his own Pc
culiar steam.
His qualities, as his Cabinet
colleagues see them, are two:
A special dedication to his
work, and an ability to throw
off a calm but strong impress
sion of extraordinary compe-
tence. His strictly personal,
social relations with the Pres
ident are not so close as were
Humphreys, perhaps because
Anderson at 40 is a genera
ton younger than Mr.. Eisen-
hover. But the ex-Texan &C
tually takes a more decisive
hand in all phases of the Ad-
ministration's work than
even Humphrey ever did.
Humphrey, as one Cabinet
informant puts it. would
speak forcefully on the Y
eral fiscal issues c ..oely
touching the Treasury. but
usually left matters there.
Anderson does not simply
speak broadly for the Treas
ury. He also gets into the
Observation-Disclosures with a
veto of his own-on every
issue before the Cabinet that
involves either major spend
ing or major policy. This, of
course, is another way of
saying that he interests him
self in everything of any
consequence, no m after

Who Shot Presidents Grouse?

Sir William Hayter in the

tally candid. He writes that
There is no substitute for
American leadership. When
American leadership is abb
sent or uncertain, the West is
not led at all. No one. we
have found, will follow British
leadership, and the attempt
to assert it leads to unpopu-
larity and suspicion"
Certainly, the British
press welcome to the Pres
ident, whom it so often
has criticized, is universally
glowing and affectionate.
There is sentiment in it, of
course, for the then Gen.
Eisenhower lived q mong

as Sir William suggests, they
need him worse now than
they did then.
It may be that the Mac
milan government is hap
pier not to go too far too
fast. They would not be the
first politicians to prefer to
campaign in a rosy glow of
anticipation rather than on
the basis of hard choice,
with its accompanying risk.

whose Cabinet department is
especially involved.
This normally would be a
good way to lose friends fast.
The fact that Anderson has
instead the respect and affec-
ton of the entire Cabinet
thus must say a good deal
about the kind of man he is.
So does the fact that he re-
tains the respect and friend
ship of the Democratic lead
ers of Congressman exclud-
ing Speaker Sam Rayburn Of
Texas, who ordinarily speaks
in smoky language of Demo-
cratic party boilers.
Then there is this final
point. Asked what does the

appeal. the Egyptian church
granted Ethiopia the right
to have its own patriarch.
But Egypt insisted on superior
authority Of its own church.
Egypt has been to other
Coptic churches what Rome
is to the various churches Of
the Roman rite.
The Copts are an ancient,
interesting people. They are
the surviving remnants Of
the Christians who have not
been converted to Islam in
the IA centuries since the
Moslem invasion. They are
perhaps the oldest Chris
tianity continuity in the
world. There are small
groups of Coptic Christians
in the East, but chiefly they
are found in Egypt and
Ethiopia. Originally the
church ritual was in the an
cient Coptic language. Today
it is largely in Arabic. The
rite resembles that of the
Greek Church.
Bishop Theophilos' visit to
Moscow comes at a time
when the Soviet government
is stepping up its endemic
hostility against all estab-
lished churches except the
Russian Orthodox. H
1t is merely a straw in the
wind. But it is not without
significance, in that it illus
trates how Moscow uses
weapons other than guns to
obtain advantages.

Latest War of Nerves Is Aimed
At Ethiopian Orthodox Church

UP a war OF nerves with the
Roman Catholic Church. 1t
hopes, finally, to persuade
some priests to break with the
Vatican and set themselves
UP as an autonomous Rus
sian Catholic Church. This
already has happened in
some areas Of China. There
is as yet no sign of it either
in Russia or Poland. The
faith holds.
The Kremlin has, without
question, however gained
control Of the Russian Or
thodox, or Greek Rite
Church, inside the Soviet
union.
A few brief weeks ago the
Kremlin leaders received En-
peror Halle SelasSle. He was
given the royal red carpet
treatment, and, more impor-
tant, a credit loan Of $780,
100000.
This is what gives added
significance to the move by
the Russian Orthodox Church
to bring the Coptic bishop to
Moscow and establish a close
relationship with him, The
Kremlin, as aforesaid, does
not yet control either the
Roman Catholic priests or
the Baptist leaders within
its borders. Nor can it be said
they have authority over the
Russian church outside So
Wet borders. But within they
do.
There is much more COM
mon ground between the two
churches than there is eco
nomic interest between the
two countries. The Coptic
Church in Ethiopia has for
some years been cool toward
the Egyptian Coptic patri-
arch. Last month, in an eff

Second Great War, remem-
Der being touched by the faith
and courage Of a small band
Of very black Coptic monks
from Ethiopia who dwelt in
a small hut or so on the roof
of the Church Of the Holy
Sepulcher.
They were desperately poor.
Mussolini's invasion and con-
troll of Ethiopia earlier had
left them without funds from
their home churches. They
subsisted on charity. When
war famed they were even
more cut off from support.
But they survived. And they
tenaciously held on to their
share Of the somewhat jeal-
ously competitive schedule of
worship which prevails in
that ancient and disputed
church. There have been
times in the past when the
rival groups Of Christian sects
domiciled in the cavernous
house Of worship, built at
Emperor Constantine's di-
rection, have slugged it out
in angry differences. Now
and then the cross of our
Lord has been welded as a
weapon, so intense is the de-
termination of each sect to
hold on to its rights.
All of which is background
to the fact that. as of this
writing, Bishop Theophilos
of the Ethiopian Orthodox
Church is visiting in Moscow.
He is expected to establish a
much closer liaison between
the Russian and Ethiopian

In a few days there will be
several important tests which
will tell the American people
whether the Democratic Party
majority in Congress elected
last autumn has proved re-
sponsible or irresponsible.
First, q bill calling for
more than 81 billion in public
works projects, many Of them
not provided for in the Presi-
dents budget, but which
selfish interests in various
congressional districts have
promoted, will be up for de-
cision as to whether Presi-
dent Eisenhower's veto shall
be sustained or overridden.
Second. the labor-reform
bill which the Nation de-
mands and which was passed
overwhelmingly by the House
of Representatives has run
into a deadlock in the Joint
conference committee Of both
houses. Now the Senate must
vote whether to follow or ig-
more the public sentiment
that favors an end to racke-
teering and the "blackmail"
picketing that Injuries inno-
cent third parties.
Third. the House leadership
of the Democratic Party has
bottled up a bill that calls for
higher interest rates on Gov
eminent bonds. The issue has
not been permitted to be
voted on in clear-cut fashion
by the Democratic leaders of
the House. Failure to act
could mean a crisis for the
dollar and produce more in
flation.
The best exposition Of the
case for the bill that would
give the Treasury power to
go beyond the present limit
of AZ per cent on bonds that
mature after five years has
been given by Senator Harry
Byrd, Democrat of Virginia.
