This Capital has seen many
self-inflicted wounds. Some
times they are and remain a
riddle, as in the case of Sher-
man Adams. 1t rarely has
seen one more public and
more dramatic than Clare
Boothe Luce wreaked upon
herself nor one which brought
swifter and more telling VEN
geance in its train.
An unenthusiastic Senate
had confirmed Mrs. Luce as
Ambassador to Brazil despite
we'll documented evidence of
her political extremism.
Within hours she had coupled

She then heard from the
Senate in a tense and emo
tional scene which veterans
say has not before been du-
plicated in that historic
chamber.
Senator Morse had read
Mrs. Luce's statement to his
colleagues and had replied to
1t equally with a touch Of
humor and a sober prayer for
her success in her new post.
With his customary bland
ness, Republican Leader Dirk
sen sought to pass of the
incident as mere jest.
But Senator Lausche, the
Ohio conservative, saw it
differently. In short power
full sentences he sketched a
chilling vignette of AN alb

nine years old. He has a
good knowledge Of both
French and German, which
comes in handy In diplomacy,
not only for speaking, but
for reading. He has had a
wide experience in American
government and politics as
well as in diplomacy.
He served In the Her
bert Hoover relief mission
which helped to rescue the
hungry people Of Europe.
and he got an intimate
knowledge Of economic af-
fairs by serving for flve years
as personal assistant TO Mr..
Hoover when he was Secre-
tary Of Commerce. Then
came Chris Herter's career
in the Massachusetts, Legis-
lature and ten years in Con-
gress. after which he served
two terms as Governor Of
Massachusetts,.
All this has been splendid
training for his present post.
Secretary Herter, Of course,
has the blessing Of Congress,
but it is important for him
to gain prestige abroad. Dip
lomats in Europe think he
will be more like the parlia-
mentary leaders Of Britain
and France than the men Of
legal training who have
preceded him in the portfolio
Of Secretary Of State. Among
the outstanding lawyers in
the latter category have been
Charles Evans Hughes, Dean
Acheson and John Foster
Dulles.
The political leader, to be
sure, mingles more freely
and perhaps expresses him
self with more pleasing gen.
eralities than does the law
yer. Actually, the lawyers,
like Mr.. Dulles, have been
far more resourceful than the
political type of Secretary Of
State we have had. But most
ly this is because they have
been more intimately fami-
liar with the presidents Of
each problem-for the prin-
ciples Of international law
are deeply imbedded in world
affairs.

it is too late now for the
Senate to act and that the
President will not. AS Senator
Morse showed, his political
debts to the LuceS are many

Christian Herter Returns to Paris

which is TO prepare for the
Geneva conference. is in a
sense q rehearsal for the
sessions with the Russians
that begin on May IL. Sec
rotary Herter will be taxed
to the utmost TO keep the
foreign ministers conference
at Geneva from being stalled
by Soviet tactics.
The assumption that a
negotiation" Is to take
place at Geneva or In a sum-
NIT meeting is rather widely
held. But. unfortunately, the
world Is In for q disillusion-
ment. The Moscow game Is
to use the Geneva conference
for propaganda to force a
summit meeting In July and
thereby make more propa-
ganda. The Western allies
have all sorts of counter
proposals to offer and win
try to weld their own posi-
tons together for the Geneva
meeting. But they will face
there q stone wall.
The American position is
that enough progress must be
made at Geneva to Justify"
a summit meeting. The So
VETS, 1t is believed. will not
make any concessions, except
perhaps in form, as they are
not accustomed to yielding
anything Of substance in the
international conferences in
which they participate.
The purpose of the meet
ings starting here today is
to arrange for the presenta-
ton of a united front to the
Soviet govern m mt next
month. Secretary Herter has
specific instructions from
President Eisenhower to that
effect. It is his first big con-
ference in Europe as an &C
tive participant, but he
brings to it an intimate
knowledge Of the British view
point gained from his at
tendance at the Eisenhower
Macmillan sessions a few
weeks ago in Washington.
The area of discussion at
Geneva will be wide enough
for the Soviets to propose
new ways out Of the Berlin
dilemma, but on the basic
principle-that West Berlin
must remain freeAthere will
be no retreat by the West.

Secretary OF State Chris
tian Herter has made his
debut in Paris where he went
10 meet with his West Euro
pean colleagues. The main
task supposedly is to iron
out the differences Of views
between the contin entail
European powers and those
of Britain.
Britain is strongly disposed
to find some COM on
grounds to appease the Mus
covites. The new Triple
Alliance. composed Of en-
emies in the last war =

as many concessions as the
Russians themselves are will
ing to make.
While the British are will
ing to credit" the Soviet
Union yield to some of its
present demands in the hope
that these will be repaid in
the future) the continental
Europeans want only quid
pro quo.
It is arbitration Of these
differing policies which is
supposed to be the main
problem confronting Mr..
Herter in Paris. But he is
likely to find out that the
different attitudes of our
allies are actually a minor
matter compared to the real
problem - the increasing
lack Of confidence in Amer
ica's policies by our allies
in Europe and the Middle
East.
There is a growing feeling
among our allies Including
some who want still to be-
lieve in our moral leader

the American ship Of state

are just following the wind.

the members of the grand

PARIS = Forty years ago
two young Americans busted
themselves as attaches OF the
American peace mission here,
little realizing that In the
distant future, at a critical
time in world history, their
destinies would be inter-
woven. In 1919. John Foster
Dulles, who has just retired
as Secretary OF State Of the
United States. and Christian
A. Herter, the new Secretary
of State, we're learning for
the first time at a big inter-
national conference about the
powerful currents Of foreign
policy that challenged even
then the diplomacy OF the
United States as 1t emerged,
at the close Of World War l,
a major power deeply en-
trenched in European poll
tics.
Just as President Wilson
enunciated then in his great
speeches the idealisn1 OF the
American people. so today
Secretary Of State Herter, in
behalf Of President Eisen-
hover, brings to the Western
foreign ministers conference
the record Of unselfishness
of his country, unsullied
by any territorial ambition or
quest for material rewards.
America is CONCERNED
solely with the defense OF the
free world - as. indeed, 1t
was in two world wars and
in the Korean var. Today.
as another dictatorship rears
its head and seeks by duress
to compel the Western Al
lies to yield 10 its demands,
the United states is in
sisting that the rights Of the
people of West Germany
must be afeguarded. The
phrase asAlf-determination"
means in 1853 what it meant
in 1919-that each people
must be allowed to work out
their oFn destiny without
the intervention of any out
side power.

divisions on the proper APP
proach to the Russians.
OF the present three-head-
ed Soviet bloc approach it
self, the most arresting point
is the way its spokesman are
dealing with the military
thinkers" For a long time,
it will be recalled, the very
highest Soviet figures, includ-
ing Nikita Khrushchev. him
self, spoke badly of Soviet
missiles as offering the most
unbeatable reasons why the
West must come to terms.
Now, the Soviet story is the
reverse.
Now, the story goes like
this:
The "real danger" to man
kind does not lie in "any"
weaponry. Rather, it lies only
in the failure of political
leaders to keep up with SCI
entific advances. Thus, we
must beware the military
thinkers" For these are try
ing to hold good policy,
meaning peace" policy, down
to their own out-moded no
tons.
So, in summary, these are
the ultimate Soviet bloc in
tentions:
/. To take world diplomacy
for good out of the relatively
calm and professional at
mosphere of foreign minister
ial negotiation and to put it
all in the hands of a success
sion of summit meetings.
Summit meetings. any and all
Of them, will be more subject
to the worlds emotional
pressures if only because any
free leader will find it hard
to say no to popular hopes
under the white, constant
light of total publicity.
2. To make the West no
longer willing to listen to
what are after all its ulti-
mate experts in the science Of
survival, the military men.

The ill-concealed actions
of Soviet bloc spokesman here
are making it plain that Mos
COW has loosed a major prop
uganda offensive to discredit
the big four foreign ministers
conference before 1t meets.
There are three easily iden-
titled preliminary targets.
The first target is the whole
traditional process Of West
ern diplomacy. Iron Curtain
diplomats are saying in effect
that the world has no further
real use for foreign ministers.
They are arguing first that
all present EaSt-WeSt issues,
like the Berlin crisis, cannot
be settled by negotiations
among foreign ministers but
only at summit meetings of
heads Of state. And they are
going on to suggest even that
all subsequent issues of con-
sequence also must have a
single place of settlement,
the summit.
The second target of inter-
national communiSm's cam
paign is all military think
ing" - including. for the
moment at least, even Soviet
military thinking. The line
is that all military men are
quite out of date because
scientific and intellectual adj
vances have outrun them.
The third target is a sim
gle person, our new Secre-
tary of State, Christian A.
Herter. Soviet bloc officials
are pointing to him as one
foreign minister who, per-
hapS more even than all the
others. lacks political pow
er." The fact, of course, is
that this is extraordinarily
untrue. Mr.. Herter's base of
domestic political support is
actually the greatest of any

Vests Military Experts Are Target
OF Latest Communist Twist

Secretary since Cordell Hull
in the days of Franklin D.
Roosevelt. perhaps, paren-
thetically, this is exactly why
Soviet bloc spokesman are
urging the exact reverse.)
This psychological cam
paign is being directed, not
primarily at the public but
rather toward Washington
officialdom, the press and
opinion influencers in gen.
eral. Soviet bloc diplomats
are making themselves ex-

which they are speaking with
unusual care and precision
and under obvious prior in

Toward the people gen.
orally, meanwhile, interna-

because international COM
munism wishes to keep the
peoples trust in what is
clearly the only kind of
East-WeSt solutions the So
Wet bloc now really intends
to accept-that is, solutions
at the summit.

have Soviet spokesman in
semi-private talks shown so
brutal a candor as they are
showing now. They are Civ
