Buffers Intemperote Outburst

with the following COM
ment:
This attempt on your part
to bloody the hands of the
President is not very credi-
table"
Politics is a free-slugging
match in the main, but the
kind of attack of which
Chairman Butler is guilty is
almost unheard-of. 1t tends
to weaken his own position
as a leader of his party and
no doubt will strengthen the
movement inside the Demo-
cratic Party to oust him from
the chairmanship after the
next national convention in
Los Angeles.
Already the Southerners
are up in arms over state
ments by Mr.. Butler virtu-
ally reading the Southern
Democrats out of the party.
The task of a national chair
man hitherto has been be-
lieved to be to harmonic
rather than to disorganize.
Mr.. Buffers remarks have
not been calculated to pre-
serve unity in the Demo-
cratic Party.
This latest outburst
against the President is
bound to boomerang. Instead
of gaining votes, it could be
the means of losing votes for
the Democrats. For when at
tackS go to extremes, argu-
ments on other topics SIM
ply do not carry the convic-
tions they otherwise might.
Many people may not
understand, of course, that,
when the President takes a
trip to a foreign country,
the people Of that country
appreciate any special cour-
tesieS. The more colorful the
ceremonies, the deeper the
impression made. To charge
the President with any re-
sponsibility, official or other
wise, for the death of the
Navy bandsmen in the air
plane accident is about as
far-fetched and fantastic as
to charge the chairman of
the Democratic National
Committee with responsible
ity for the physical collapse
of Senator Thomas j. Dodd
Of Connecticut at the Demo-
cratic Embarrassing dinner at
Miami, Fla, last week.

It's Q tribute to the good

Mr.. Butler must have sud

bate Sunday night that
President Eisenhower has
something to answer for to
the wives and children of the
Navy men" who died in the
air collision near Rio de ia
neiro on February IS. The
Democratic National Chair
man added:
What right has he (the
President) to take the Navy
Band on a trip around the
world? Was this trip a politi-
cal show or Something?"
Now, it so happens that
right after the disaster the
Navy Department in Wasn-
ington issued a statement
which said:
The Navy Band was sched-
uled to make the South
American tour in February
and March to take advantage
Of the transportation which
could be provided by the
cruiser Macon. AS their Visit
would coincide with that Of
the President. the Chief of
Naval Operations made the
band available to the United
States Ambassadors III the

cerned to play for oficial
ceremonies in addition to the

But Mr.. Butler evidently
didn't read this in the news

it. Admiral Arleigh Burke.

knows him at all realizes he
will have that all figured out
and politicians think he would
be foolish If he didn't.
The situation at Chicago
when Adlai Stevenson tried
that on for size did produce
drama, but Republicans this
year simply lack the mate
rials to repeat the Kennedy
Kefauver cliffhanger. There
is only one front runner:
the party planned it that
way and is stuck with it.
What makes Senator Nor
tons lot even harder is that
so many of his friends find
it very funny. He is being
urged to offer door prizes, ar
range for bingo or stage a
Republican version of a SEN
ate fllibuster.
One Republican planner
says in all seriousness that
he is hoping for a write-in
vote for Gov. Rockefeller Of
New York in New Hampshire
and other States. His theory
is that then 1t would be pos
sible to arrange for a spon-
taneous draft of the New
Yorker for Vice President at
the convention. He admits
that the idea has one flaw.
So many politicians would
have to be assigned roles in
it, the word would be bound
to leak to reporters.
No doubt Republicans can
produce enough foot soldiers
to do duty at the convention
and pay the hotels their fees.
But a surprising number are
beginning to say they just
may not go to Chicago at all.

advised to give serious atten-
tion, and make public reply,
to the Chilean students. Ever
since the revolution against
Spain, students have been a
force in Latin American
politics. They we're, for ex-
ample, an integral part Of
Fidel Castro's revolution in
Cuba as they were among the
more stubborn resistance
groups in the revolution
against Mschado in the des-
perate thirties.
The same thing is true of
students in Asian and Orien-
tai countries. Students, as
much as any other single fac
tor, overthrew the Chang
Kai-shek overnmen ent in
China. Their ideals could not
endure the admitted. obvious
corruption of it. European
students also have played a
more active role in politics
than in this country.
But we should not overlook
new developments in the
United States. The Negro
student "sit-in" demonstra-
tions. all of whose partici-
pants have been schooled in
the passive-resistance, no.
violence theory of Gandhi,
already have attracted DEM
onstration responses from
students at Rutgers. Other
student bodies will follow.
Student condemnation of the
Senate filibuster is almost
unanimous. We may very
well be witnessing another
aspect of change in our ma
tional life. We may be seeing
a prophetic cloud no larger
than a mans hand. Ike's

country.
The politically-minded stu
dents had moved directly to
q familiar charge by the
young intellectuals Of Latin

letter asked If the United

fed nation" which is only in

established order in Latin
America.

dents. then the U. S. policy
