No Tainted Water

We would like to drink a toaSt-in
pure Potomac water-to the officials,
Federal and local, who have worked out
sensible and apparently practical plan
for protecting our water supply from
the faint of sewage from Dulles Inter
national Airport. We have been reluctant
all along to believe that even a tempo
rary discharge of treated sewage into
WaShington'S water-Supply source was
"inevitable"-aS the Budget Bureau was
insisting only few weeks ago. The re-
ported agreement on temporary air
port plant that will impound the sewage
and convert it into fertilizer will relieve
the anxiety of the entire community.
Of course, the temporary arrange
ment will work only if Congress approves
the proposal for a permanent sewage
disposal system that will convey airport
sewage to the District treatment plant
at Blue Plains. Congress failed to give
its approval to the project last year, for
reasons Of economy. We hope that a
satisfactory plan for financing such a
system under partnership agreement
by Federal and local authorities will be
presented at this session and promptly
enacted into law. The need for an i'm
mediate start on construction of the
permanent line to the city sewer system
IS Overwhelmingly urgent.

ing. Especially the labor press. For
while Senator Humphrey, as everyone
knows, is strong with labor, his people
desire increased attention in the Trades
UnioniSt, the weekly publication of the
Washington Central Labor Council. So
they submit $16S paid ad to the Trades
UnioniSt.
And why not? BY the AFL-CIOs
own analysis, Senator Humphrey has
voted fright" is, the labor way
on 2l3 out of 214 major issues in the
Senate. But what happens? He gets
rejected, that's what. According to the
Central Labor Council president, ]. C.
Turner-who also happens to be a Dis
trict primary candidate on the ticket
of Senator Humphreys opponent, Sen
ator MorSe-the Trades Unionist has
had fiat rule against accepting po-
litical ads for 46 years.
Well, rules are rules, we suppose.
But Senator Humphrey must be won

tician has to go, or how often he has to

When Friends Fall Out

Only an older generation of polit-
lco-Social observers of the Washington
scene can remember the time when
George E. Allen was not a friend of
Presidents. The jovial, storytelling Mr..
Allen began this unusual career back
in the New Deal era of President Frank
lin Roosevelt, continued it through the
years when Mr.. Truman was living in
the White House, and hasn't missed a
trick during the two terms of Mr.. Eisen-
hover. He has also written a book en-
titled President Who Have Known Me,
and has been the life of many a party
Democratic and Republican,.
For those who have known our Mr..
Truman, however, it is less than sur
priSing that he is no longer enchanted
by Mr.. Aliens social and political versa
tility. To Mr.. Truman, Mr.. Allen no
longer is friend-he is "fixer" Mr.
Truman does not like Republicans much
to start with, so it is understandable
that he does not like one time Demo-
Gratis who hob-nob with Republicans.
In one of those delightful sidewalk
press conferences, the former Demo-
cratic President had some tart COM
mentS about his poker playing crony"
who has now become bridge partner"
OF Republican Eisenhower
friend to all is friend to none
could be Mr. Truman's motto, borrowed
straight from Aristotle. Stay out of
Missouri, Mr.. Allen, some of the natives
are unfriendly!

All That Gold at Fort Knox Isn't Ours

countries to assume a larger
share of foreign aid to I'M
derdeveloped countries, are
not having any great effect.
The principal cause of the
continuing adverse balance of
payments is mounting i'm
ports and diminishing exports
and the reason this situation
persists is that the dollar is
held in an over-valued posi-
ton abroad by pegging the
price of gold at $35 per ounce,
whereas on the basis of the
purchasing power of the dol
lar at home it is worth SIG
per ounce. AS a result ex-
porterS must raise prices to
compensate for the loss in
CURED in bringing high
priced dollars they receive
for their goods abroad back
home, where they buy 81 per
cent less. Importers, on the
other hand, who receive
dollars worth 48 cents can
exchange them for foreign
currency abroad at the 1894
purchasing power of the
dollar, which is 54 per cent
greater. Importers can lower
prices on goods imported into

Invitation to Crime

Will Congress wait until there has
been serious breakdown in law enforce
ment before removing the Wire-tap re-
StrictionS that continue to Shackle police
and Federal investigators? The question
is prompted by the latest court develop
ment in the wire-tap issue. AS had
been feared by prosecutors and police,
New York county court has interpreted
a recent Federal appellate court ruling
as requiring New York courts to outlaw
the use of overlapping evidence. The
direct benef1ciarieS, of course, will be the
criminals who do their plotting by wire
or radio.
The appellate tribunal, by a Al
decision, had upheld lower Federal court
rulings admitting evidence secured by
New York police through the tapping of
underworld wires. However, one of the
majority judges expressed the belief that
State courts would not admit such evi-
dence, despite the sanction of State
law, since it would put them in the
position of acquieScing Ito the commits
sion of a crime against the United
States" A county Judge cited this COM
ment and the dissent by the fifth appel
late Judge in support of his ban on wire
tap evidence in a transfers extortion
trial
Nassau County District Attorney
Manuel w. Levine warned that the wire
tap setback in the courts will have a
monumental and serious effect on law
enforcing agencies in this State" He
we'll might have broadened this to in
clude law-enforcement authorities gen
orally. For the decision by the United
States Court of Appeals in New York
has compounded the wire-tap confusion
already existing in judicial, proSecutive
and investigative circles. We agree with
District Attorney Levine that any failure
by Congress to Straighten out the mess
by legalizing restricted overlapping in
law enforcement-"wi be an outright
encouragement to the crime Syndicates,
the hoods and the crooks to increase
their activities"

Asian Voice for Freedom

1t is reflection of our fast-changing
timeS-an era in which fabulous prog
resS in transport and communications
is almost literally shrinking the globe
that King of Nepal should rise before
joint session of our Congress to dis
cuSS international affairs. Never before
had ruler of the remote Himalayan
kingdom visited the United States, and
only in very recent years has there been
Semblance of more than perfunctory
diplomatic relations between the two
countries.
But in this past decade there have
been changes in Nepal itself, as we'll as
in the world around it, and it has been
the 39-year-old King Mahendra who
has led his people out of their historic
iSolation-social, political and economic.
Living on the troubled ASiatic frontier
which divides the free and the Commu-
mist worlds, Nepal has followed a pol
icy of official nonalignment with either
bloc. At the same time, the Katmandu
government is retaining its closest for
eign ties with free India and currently
is resisting Red Chinese claims to juriS-
diction over the Mount Everest region.
Throughout his address to the Con-
greSS, as in the communique issued
jointly with President Eisenhower, King
Mahendra emphasized that political
freedom-Secure from external threat
as we'll as internal subverSion-will con-
tinue to guide his own governments
policy at home. 1t was fitting that he
concluded his speech by drawing upon
the Gettysburg Address of our own
President Lincoln. In today'S world, he
said, it should be resolved that all the
international community shall have a
new birth of freedom, and that govern
ment of the people, by the people, for
the people shall not perish from the
earth"

men are not the only ones

There seems to be some
question as to whether Bydng
Choll Koh was right in TAX
ing the initiative to issue an
ultimatum to the much-criti-

ton as to whether the many
young students in Korea were
right when, without the con-
sent of their corrupt govern
ment leaders, they took the

were going to take it to a

hope the dogs injury was not

Safety at All Costs

Some readers may wonder
why a professional public
relations man like the Air
Line Pilots Association S
could become nettled to
make a direct jab written
at an editorial writer who
had a sincere interest in
public safety by producing
an editorial, safety at All
Costs" (Star, April 20).
To understand this they
should consider the unproven
derogatory innuendo and
ballyhoo toward young" old
pilots that has been gen.
Grated by the profound rule
and law making procedures
of that benevolent autoc-
racy" within a democracy
known as the Federal Avia-
ton Agency.
There seems to be a diff
ference of opinion in legal
circles as to what could or
should have been the best
legal procedure to avoid the
indiscriminate grounding" of
airline pilots at age so. How
ever, the fact remains that
this occurred under a system
of law" making delegated
to FAA by Congress which
permits an agency admin
iStrator to make rules as he
sees fit, but without a full
evidentiary hearing.
Thus, we have the phe-
nomenon of a profound rule,
revolutionary to the charac-
ter of democracy, both in it's
concept and its method of
enactment, becoming the law
of the land-but temporarily
I hope.
Under the circumstances if
I were an editorial writer or
an airline passenger. I might
be apprehensive for safety,
too. This would be the case
if I had little knowledge of
