Inevitable Conflict?

Former UnderSecretary of State
Robert D. Murphy has directed public
attention toward one of the more in
triguing questions of our generation.
Addressing meeting Of the American
Bar Foundation in Chicago, the retired
career diplomat said there is reason
to believe that a certain cleavage may
exist" between the two foremost Com
muniSt powers, Soviet Russia and the
Peoples Republic of China, and that
differences between them will "inevita-
bly," grow.
1t is not the first time that this
view has been expressed in the Western
world, but Mr.. Murphy'S unusually high
qualifications and his careful discussion
of the matter carry great weight. He
points out, for example, that there is
fundamental ground for such a conflict
in the historical and cultural differ
enceS" between EuraSian Russia and
Asian China. To these may be added the
practical problem of maintaining peace
and tranquility along 3,500-mile COM
mon frontier, particularly in the light
Of Peiping'S policy Of aggressive provo
cations" along comparably long and
difficult-to-defend borders with India
and PakiStan. And, finally, he points to
an issue of political disagreement, name
ly, Peiping's brutal application" of the
communal system in China after its
failure and withdrawal in Russia and
YugoSlavia.
Significantly, however, Mr.. Murphy
indicated his approval Of State Depart
ment policy that we should do little
or nothing" to exploit these differences,
that we should instead let them develop
out of their natural causes. This is the
wise courSe-if for no other reason than
the danger that overt intervention might
force the two Red powers into f1rmer
alliance against what they obviously
consider a common foe. Relatively un-
distracted on other fronts, they may find
more time and reason for destructive
competition within the Communist
empire itself.

What Type of City?

The Commissioners latest report on
the "State of the Nations Capital" con-
tainS a justified and timely reminder
Of the important role which Congress,
under the Constitution, must play in
the orderly development of Washington.
The reminder is appropriate in view of
the continued tendency of Congress to
shift to the citizens of the District part
OF the Federal share of the burden of
maintaining and improving the Capital.
Any Sinking of responsibility by the
Federal Government is bound to have
an adverse effect on the Washington of
tomorrow. AS the Commissioners aptly
summed up the situation, "the policies
OF the Congress as to the type Of city
that is desired" will be determined by
"the financial support that will be made
available to achieve that type Of CITY,"
While the report gives a generally
favorable picture Of the present state"
Of the city, there are warnings of chang
ing conditions threatening the financial
stability and hence the prosperity and
future progress Of the District. Urban
blight already has made deep inroads
in older parts of the city. Redevelop-
ment and renewal projects have been
started or planned-but they will at
tract investors only to the extent that
the continued improvement of the city
as the seat of the National Government
is assured. If the Federal Government
itself is unwilling to do its full part in
making Washington the kind Of Cap
ital bef1tting the Nation, investors can
hardly be expected to take up the lag.
1t is against this background that
the Commissioners renewed appeal for
adoption by Congress of definite pol
icy toward Washington stands out in
all its urgency. Specifically, 1t was rec
commended that Congress 60 on record as
agreeing that, "in exercising its exclusive
legislative authority over the District
of Columbia" the Federal Government
should provide financial support over
and above that which can be derived
from taxing District residents and bust
nesses at rates comparable to those of
surrounding communities, to the extent
necessary to make the District mod
ern, attractive and efficient community
CA1dO nICCCo I4lC ACQu4A CILlClIGo W DC CIIC
Capital Of the United States"
Unless such policy is established
and adhered Washington will be
in danger of slow deterioration of public
services and facilities, with consequent
damage to its economy. And the Fed
eral Government will suffer the i'll ef-
fects of this decay, along with the people
of Washington.

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWEL[

Our correspondent con-
tinues:
"Of course, he was exag-
gerating. He never touched
liquor on duty. He was a
teetotaller all day, but at bed
time he slipped just enough
whisky in a glass of cold
water to make him slightly
drowsy.
He had to get up at 5
O'Clock, have his breakfast
and walk 8 blocks to work.
He walked home in the
evenings for the exercise,
walking slowly as if he en-
joyed every step.
He could not afford to lie
awake at night; retired at
$50, and, getting sufficient
sleep, never had a cold.
=
Il began to copy his style.
THE main thing is never
to let yourself get uncom-
Portable, that is, cold.
Never forsake comfort for
style.
"'Oh, it's quite all right
he said, so long as you're
comfortable
"Shivver for a minute or
two, but don't punish your
self. In my COS, it is neces-
sary to be a bit warmer than
I would like at times; but
don't forget, Mr.. Templeton
Jones, you take more colds
with chill than with heat.
Sleep plenty, and sleep
warm"
So there you have the two
sides to the picture.
The funny thing is, we
believe both sides to be right!
So much depends upon the
individual, that it is impos-
sible to lay down rules except
in a general sort of way.
We believe most will agree
with two statements in the
above letters; one, that too
many people stoop too much
and seem to make no effort
to stand up straight; and
second. those spiked heels!
Standing straight is an ef-
fort, at any time of life, and
particularly SO in middle and
older age when the pull OF
gravity is helped by bending
bones.
AS for morning setting-up
exercises, they are gone for
good, we believe, and no
wonder-they are Just too
much trouble.
Standing up straight is
something else again.
1t is always good.

Views of BroyhH

The honesty Of Represent
ative Broyhill in publicly
agreeing with the recent
House refusal to appropriate
Federal funds for parks in
flood plain areas, stating that
such problems must be locally
financed, is an oasis in the
political desert. Just imagine:
A politician who refuses to
partake of pork barrel!
No one, including Mr.. Broy-
hill, says We don't need parks.
What I understand he is say
ing is that certain problems
do need Federal matching
funds-hke schools and roads,
because they're major costs.
Placing the acquisition of five,
ten or twenty acres here and
there for "greenery" or parks
is small enough compared to
our soaring school budget in
which, thank Heaven, we do
get some Federal funds. There
is a very American principle
lurking around here on this
parks controversy. Isn't it
the principle that Americans
let government come in with
help only when they can't
make do on public needs by
themselves? Isn't this the
way of people who want to
safeguard their individual
liberty?
Mr.. Broyhill has stuck his
neck out in a political year for
a principle.
Let's get our own parks
locally financed and main
tained. Julius Brenner.
+
Representative Broyhill
missed the point completely
when he opposed use of Fed
eral money to help preserve
the stream valleys of North
ern Virginia in their natural
wooded state. He obviously
didn't know enough about
this 30-year-old program to
realize that it is an excellent
bargain for the Federal Gov
ernment, helping it to dis
charge its responsibility to
protect the Washington wa
tershed, with 25 of the cost
being borne by the local tax
payers. No Federal funds, of
course, would be devoted to
developing or operating rec
reational facilities, which will
and should remain local re-
SponSibilitieS.
In this election year we
Democrats will prove Mr..
Broyhill is incapable Of ana
lying the needs of our Dis
trict and the Nation, and
that he is unable to design
and execute legislative &C
ton to serve those needs.

Six Big Words

Which will we celebrate
this July 4-the Declaration
Of American independence
from foreign tyranny? Or the
Declaration of American Ad-
herence to the dictates of a
World Court on which the
Soviet Union and Red Poland
can outvote US?
Only six words of the Con-
nally amendment now pre-
vent the World Court from
deciding matters which are
essentially within the domes-
tic jurisdiction of the United
States as determined BY
the United States"
Without that vital reserva-
ton, a foreign - possibly a
hostile-Court might choose
to rule upon our tariffs and
our taxes; on how much and
to which countries we send
foreign aid; how many i'm
migrants should be allowed
to enter the United States

Still q Mystery

Federal investigators have done a
remarkable job Of finding the reason
for the crash near the North Carolina
coast last month Of a Miami-bound
National Airlines airliner Their con-
clusion that the DC-6B was wrecked
over the Atlantic coast by a dynamite
bomb, bringing death to all "a persons
aboard, settles the "how" question. Still
remaining to be cleared up, however,
is the why" angle. There are aspects
suggesting a suicide motivation but
this theory needs more facts to give
it substance.
There had been belief in official
quarters for some time that some sort
of an explosion had blasted the aircraft
in the area where New York attorney,
Julian Frank, was seated. An exami-
nation of the wreckage indicated that
a tremendous force had blown Mr.. Frank
and part of the cabin into the ocean
some 16 miles from the scene of the final
crash inland. Furthermore, it was found
that the attorney had taken out more
than 81 million worth of insurance
within the past year. An autopsy on
Mr.. Franks mutilated body revealed
foreign substances, including metallic
objects, that had not come from the
plane itself. However, no parts actually
identif1able as from bomb were found
until recently, when more wreckage was
recovered. Laboratory examination by
the FBI, the CAB and other agencies
showed traces of a chemical usually
found in dry cell batteries, such as might
be used in a bomb. Other material
which pointed to bomb also was found.
The consensus of all the laboratory
technicians was that dynamite bomb
had destroyed the airliner.
The investigators now have the
difficult task of tracing the bomb to its
source. Apparently the person respon-
sible for the explosion covered his tracks
carefully, for so far neither Mr.. Frank
nor anyone else known to have been
on the plane has been connected with
the purchase of dynamite or of batteries
or Of anything else needed for such

Dear Sir:
you are right again-we
have become a soft civiliza-
tion.
I'm so glad the dog did
not tear The Star all to
pieces: I found your article
about keeping ones self too
warm.
"It'S good to shiver, good
for your soul, and good for
your liver.
Il grew up on a stock farm
in Indiana where we had fire
places in every room. I re-
member when we were chill
dren we would turn our
backs to the glowing Goals
and then run into cold bed
rooms to sleep.
II don't think we bothered
about opening the windows,
either.
II worked in the Govern
ment many years, and had to
get out because of the 30
degree temperature with
everyone shifting with colds.
There is another point:
Our mental hospitals are
still unaware of the great
benefits derived from living
out of doors, taking long
walks in all kinds of weather.
Take the outside dogs
and cats, how much healthier
they are.
Then look at the mis-
shaped human figures on the
streets-how seldom do we
see a man or woman who
walks correctly or holds head
high.
Women still totter around
in spiked heels, swinging their
purses and inviting assaults.
You can't run very fast in

D. {. Primary

Now is the time for Dis
trict of Columbia citizens to
rise up if they do not wish
to lose the political value Of
their primary by default. Dis
trict of Columbia Republi-
can voters can only vote for
Nixon. And although there
may be more than one can
didate for the Democrats to
choose from, all the candi-
dates have identical views
about providing equal suf-
frage for District citizens,
which is the only issue that
matters in the District Of
Columbia.
To convert our meaning
less primary into a hot potato
pie, I suggest the Democrats
select one good candidate
like Humphrey and convert
this primary into a final elec-
ton by making it a local con-
test between Nixon and Hum
phrey. This can easily be
accomplished by entering a
Nixon and an anti-Nixon
Humphrey slate of dele
gates in the Republican pri-
mary. and by entering a
Humphrey and an anti-Hum-
phrey (Nixon) slate OF dele
gates in the Democratic pri-
mary. Then both Nixon and
Humphrey would be forced
to say specifically where
they stand on the District
suffrage question or face de-
feat in the May 3 election.
Since Nixon is going to be
our next President anyway,
the District should not over
look this wonderful oppor-
tunity to pin him down on
what he plans to do to re-
store to District citizens
their voice in national and
local government.

Privileged VS.. Masses


that Senator Barry Gold
water of Arizona believes
free medical care is justified
for a privileged few but
would sap the Nations moral
fiber If extended to the aged,
as provided in the Forand
bill. now under consideration
by Congress.
He declared, in effect, that
rank has its privileges, in an
Swer to a question following
his address at Georgetown
University Medical Center on
February l6. His talk was
not noted in the Washington
press.
Senator Goldwater said the
Forand bill would lead to
socialism, and suggested it
would reduce the earning
potential of doctors, lead to
regimentation and socialized
medicine.
During the question period,
almost all questions showed
complete sympathy with the
Senator's view. The audience
was made up mostly of medi-
cal students and doctors.
A lone questioner took issue
with the Senator. He in
quired about free medical
service available to members
OF Congress at Walter Reed
and Bethesda Naval Hospital
and asked if the Senator did
not find this philosophically
unacceptable, and would he
try to put an end to such free
medical service.
Senator Goldwater replied
that members of Congress
make great monetary Sacri-
fees to serve the public, have
extraordinary expenses and
deserve free medical care at
the expense of the Govern
ment.
The questioner pointed out
that Senators receive $22, 500
per year and yet Mr.. Gold
water would deny the same
kind of medical care to social
security pensioners whose
maximum income is $120 per
month.
Mr.. Goldwater answered in
effect that a person of excep-
tional talent has to be re-
warded by various non-
monetary means.
In other words, Senator
Goldwater admitted that as
far as he is concerned there
is no moral issue involved in
providing medical care for
social security pensioners but
only an economic issue. Free
Government medical care is
acceptable when extended to
a privileged few but unaccept-
able when proposed for all of
our pensioners.
The most disturbing thing
about this meeting wasn't the
predictable position of Sena-
tor Goldwater, but the COM
pletely self-centered attitudes
of the medical men present.
Except for the questions cited
there was little evidence of
concern for the problems of
providing medical care to
older people. There wasn't
one suggestion that the main
purpose in life of doctors
should be to heal the sick. I
got the uncomfortable feel
ing that I was attending a
meeting of a medical division
of some busineSSmen's organ
ization.

machine Of destruction. Nor has any
motive been found, beyond the insur-
ance angle. The case challenges the
best efforts of the FBI, the CAB and
the other investigators. Their success in
mailing down the bomb angle, however,
gives hopes that eventually the whole
mystery will be cleared up:

a dispute over boundaries in
the Northwest among the
United States, Russia and
Britain. Further, the So
called Holy Alliance, consist
ing of the Sovereigns of Rus
sia, Prussia and Austria, was
seeking to put an end to the
spread of representative gov
ernments. After France re-
stored Ferdinand VII to the
throne in Spain, it joined
with the Holy Alliance in a
move to place the countries
of South America, which had
declared their independence,
again under the control and
ownership of the Spanish
throne.
Two Key Passages
The two passages in Presi-
dent Monroe's message to
Congress which dealt with
these matters and on which
the doctrine" rests are as
follows: The occasion has
been judged proper for as
Serting as a principle in
which the rights and inter-
eSts of the United States
are involved that the Amer
lcan continents, by the free
and independent conditions
which they have assumed
and maintained, are hence
forth not to be considered as
subjects for future colonial
ton by any European pow
ers." This statement had
particular reference to the
dispute over Northwest
boundaries.
The second passage, which
referred particularly to the
attempts of the Holy Alli-
ance to bring the South
American states again under
the Spanish yoke, follows:
I'VE owe it to candor and
to the amicable relations
existing between the United
States and those powers, to
declare that we should con-
slider any attempt on their
part to extend their system
to any portion of this hemi-
sphere as dangerous to our
peace and safety" The pas
sage also stated that the
United States had recognized
the independence Of these
South American countries
and any move to oppress
them by any European
power would be considered
an unfriendly act toward the
United States.
This has been the attitude
of the United States for
nearly a century-and-a-half.
The doctrine has been re-
Spected by foreign powers
though in a number of in
stances the United States
has found it necessary to in
terpose strong objections to
interference in American af-
fairs. The French, during the
time of Napoleon III and
during our Civil War, under
took to set up Maximilian,
brother Of the Emperor of
Austria, as Emperor OF
Mexico, and landed French
troops in Mexico for this
purpose. Maximilian took
over as Emperor in May,
1854. He was executed in
June. 1867 - the French
troops having been with
drawn as demanded by the
United States Government
after our Civil War had
ended.
Presidents Grover Cleve.
land and Theodore Roosevelt
found it necessary to send
sharp notes to foreign pow
ers engaged in disputes with
Venezuela over territorial
boundaries and debts. In
both instances. the disputes
were settled amicably.
