PARASITIC image I had of
Jacques Soustelle was that of
a grimly determined soldier
seen on the television screen
and in smudged news pic
lures during the desperate
days when he was attempting
to bring off an army rebellion
against General de Gaulle in
Algeria.
Consequently, when I met
with him at his Office on the
Champs Elysees, it was some
what disconcerting to talk
philosophically of politics and
power with a quietly-dressed,
heavily-built man whose
glasses and manner made him
appear very much the profess
sor.
When de Gaulle dismissed
his old friend and leader from
the army, Soustelle opened a
small Office on the second
floor of a building not far
from the Arc de Triomphe.
Two secretaries, one a brisk,
competent, rather pretty
young woman; the other old
er, more severe; and one tall,
somewhat grim looking man
Of soldierly bearing, made up
his staff. But sitting around
were watchful young men,
obviously bodyguards. An at
tempt was made some months
ago to asSassinate Soustelle.
Soustelle talks logically, if
not with reality. He unuues-
tionably believes passionately
that France must retain AL

keeps Africa about the Med
iterranean and also South
ern France. Algerian rebels,
he insists, are defeated and
now try to win a political
battle, having lost the mill
tary one. This reflects the
bitterness of his followers,
in and out of the army, who
believe Frances politicians
have done most of the dam
age.
"Only Frances army" he
said, can impose a neces-
sary sort of social revolution
on Algeria"
He aStoniShed me some
what by saying he would like
to do in Algeria something
similar to what Israel has
done in the middle of an Arab
and Moslem area. 1t can be
done if the army is permitted.
This is his plan. He will pre-
vent present efforts of nego-
tiations with rebels if he can.
He points to de Gaulle'S
experience with Guinea as
an example of error. This
small country was told by the
General to quit the French
community if it wished. It's
plight was that of all new

Maturity and the Presidency

Herbert Hoover, elected in
1928. had served eight years
in the cabinet and knew the
executive side very well, but
he lacked knowledge of the
ways Of Congress, which
fought him continuously.
Franklin D. Roosevelt had
served as an assistant Secre-
tary of the Navy and as Gov
ernor Of New York before his
election to the presidency in
1882, but he really was "go-
ing to school" the first two
years of his administration.
Hence, his later-day policies
of international cooperation
reversed his earlier concepts
of iSolationisn1. He, too,
learned by experience that
world affairs cannot be dealt
with from the provincial po-
sition of a Governors chair.
Harry S. Truman, who be-
came President in 1945, had
had experience as a Senator,
but as an executive he was a
neophyte. He made his de-
cisionS impetuously and
without that same maturity
of judgment which he is ask
ing Senator Kennedy to pro-
vide today. Many of the Tru-
man decisions were in the
public interest, but some were
not. His tendency to disre-
gard the viewpoint of his ad-
viserS who had had expert
ence mars his record in the
White House. Senator Ken
nedy, in passing, referred to
this trait of Self-centerednesS
when he said. "Mr. Truman
regards an open convention
as one which studies all the
candidates - reviews their
records-and then takes his
advice"
Judging by the impression
of vitality and earnestness
displayed by Senator Ken
nedy on the television screen,
it will take a more effective
exposition of what is meant
by maturity and experience"
than the critics of Senator
Kennedy have given thus far
if someone else is to be nom
mated by the. Democratic
Convention. Maybe Senator
Lyndon johnson, whose tele-
vision chance is next, will be
able to underline just what
is meant by maturity and
experience" in these trou-
blous times.

Spain Bids for e common Market

tional Defense, Franz Joseph
Strauss, recently visited
Washington with a view to
buying military equipment
for its growing ground forces.
He offered to pay in gold
for all the needed purchases
to equip two additional Ger
man divisions for the NATO
forces. German factories are
fully capable of manufactur-
ing war materials but they
do not want to be distracted
from their present task of
producing exportable con-
sumers' goods.
Ambassador Areilza's sud-
den transfer is also linked.
according to reliable infor-
nation this reporter gathered
last March in Madrid, with
GeneraliSsimo Frances deci-
sion for a change of re-
gime." According to what
may be termed Informed
gossip" Franco has decided
to turn over the helm Of
government within a reason
ably short time to either the
pretender of the Spanish
throne. Don Juan, who now
lives in Portugal, or to his
son, Don Juan Carlos.
1t is common knowledge
that Franco has become
convinced that Spain's sta
bility must be assured by his
eventual turning over the
reinS to a descendant of
King Alfonso. Politically,
Spain is in as good shape as
any Western country. Eco
nomically, she follows a slow
road to recovery.
The assumption is that
soon after Spain enters the
Common Market, Franco will
hand over the throne to the
son or grandson of the late
deposed king. In the cabinet
reshuffling required by es-
tablishment of a constitu-
tional monarchy, Areilza is
expected to become either
foreign minister or the first
post-revolution prime min
lister.

Top Diplomat Areilzo Is Sent to Paris
Repeatedly to Handle Negotiations

evitable in relations between
two countries, and is credited
with having contributed
greatly to the decision of
President Eisenhower to visit
Spain last year.
The international signifi-
canoe of Count Motrico's
transfer to Paris lies in the
fact that the Western Euro
pean community is "selec-
lively" expanding. The
French German leadership
of the six-nation Common
Market is determined to close
ranks to face the eventual
threat from the Soviet Union
and has repeatedly decided
to include Spain in this COM
bine, which is expected to
lead eventually to a Western
European confederation.
Negotiations between Paris
and Madrid have been in pro-
gress for some time. 1t ap-
pears that El Caudillo has
now selected Spain'S ambas-
sador to Washington, who
was so successful in handling
complex problems with Amer
ica, as the man to handle
negotiations which are ex-
pected to lead to Spain join
ing the European Common
Market. This economic re-
grouping of Western nations
has proven itself most sue
cessful. In fact its prosperity
matches, If it does not ex-
ceed, that Of the United
States.
According to available in
formation some of the Com
mon Market members whom
we had to support economi-
cally until a few years ago
have acquired through hard
work domination of the world
markets. The gold reserves of
each individual member ex-
ceeds all expectations.

could not deny that there is
discomfort and unease which
seems to have no one focus.
Not even a general prosper
ity has silenced 1t.
The North Dakota special
Senate election Is the latest
example here. Representative
Quentin Burdick, Democrat,
thought he had lost when the
hate-Benson farmers failed
to support him overwhelm-
ingly. He disconsolately went
to bed at midnight only to be
aroused with news that he
had done generally very much
better than anyone expected.
There is every indication
that Mr.. Truman will attend
the convention despite his
resignation as a Missouri del
egate. He has left himself
free to operate in any way he
sees f1t. That he has scuttled
his supposed favorite, Sena-
tor Stuart Symington, seems
clear-but it has been appar-
ent for some time that Sem
ator Symington was failing to
establish that communication
with the rank and file which
might have made his nomi-
nation possible.
What is left is an outsider,
provided Senator Kennedy
does not win on an early bal
lot. Mr.. Truman mentioned
many, no doubt in an effort
to persuade them to withhold
their votes from Senator
Kennedy as long as possible.
This week should tell how
successful he was in that
lead. If any major Governor,
such as Edmund Pat" Brown
of California, goes to Senator
Kennedy, the ball is probably
over.

The transfer of Spain's
Ambassador to the United
States, Don Jose M. de Are
liza, Count of Motrico, to
Paris is more than a mere
routine matter. 1t has inter-
national significance.
Spain has sent us two out
standing diplomats in the last
IA years. Don Jose de Leque-
RIGA arrived in Washington in
1946 under the guise of 'in-
spector" of the Spanish dip
lomatic missions in the West
ern Hemisphere. This subter-
fuge was used because, under
the prodding of the Soviet
Union, the wartime allies had
withdrawn their ambassadors
from Madrid in an effort to
topple the Franco regime. In
fact, Stain had suggested at
PotSdam a military inter-
vention. In the face of Amer
ican-British opposition he
settled for an unofficial eco
nomic boycott and the recall
of ambassadors.
Lequerica, by tactful han
ding, contributed greatly to
a change in our policies.
Eventually Washington
reversed the so-called United
Nations policy" Washington
and other Western powers
recognized the futility of that
policy. While Lequerica
established the foundations
of the present relationship
with Spain, where we have
important air and naval
bases, it was his successor,
Count Motrico, who is respon-
sible for the present cordial
relations between Washing
ton and Madrid.
Count Motrico combines the
qualities of old world diplo-
macy with the public rela-
tions requirements of modern
day. He successfully overcame

not arranged for, and to that

Mr.. Truman's devotion to

has no real emotional ties

Hoover has been most dis
Greet, but his party has been
disregarding his own prefer
ences for President rather
consistently and his present
views of the state of the

There's an old tactic in
debate-turn a weakness, if
possible, into a strength.
Senator Kennedy of Massa-
chusetts took advantage of
the publicity opportunity
opened up for him by former
President Truman and dis
cussed extensively before a
Nationwide television audi
ence the question of his
youth and alleged lack of
experience for the presidency.
Whether he did a job suf-
ficient to convince the DEM
ocratic National Convention
is one thing. Whether the
same argument will convince
the country, If he is nomi-
mated by the Democrats, is
quite another.
Youth itself is no handicap
to the presidency, as Senator
Kennedy accurately pointed
out how other Americans
younger in years than he is
today-rose to fame. Former
President Truman, it will be
recalled, asked the MaSsa-
chusettS Senator to step
aside on two counts. One was
youth, but the other was the
need for a man with the
greatest possible maturity
and experience"
Mr.. Truman obviously had
in mind Senator Lyndon
johnson, majority leader of
the Senate, as such a man.
Senator Kennedy. in refuting
the idea that he is too young,
was quick to refer on the
other point-experience-to
his record of IA years in Con-
greSs. He was unable, how
ever, to offer the kind of ex-
perience in the shaping Of
legislative policy which Sem
ator johnson of Texas pos
sesses. Also, if Mr.. Kennedy
is the Democratic nominee.
he will have to find a rebuff
tai to the Republican argu-
ment that Vice President
Nixon has for the past seven
years actually sat in at the
White House at Cabinet
meetings, sessions of the Ma
tional Security Council, and
consultations with foreign
dignitaries visiting President
Eisenhower.

cynically noted that Alger-
ian rebels we're feted in Pei
ping, North Vietnam and
North Korea.
Soustelle is not any longer
a figure out of Beau Geste.
But all sorts of grandiose
stories circulate about him.
One is that a conspiracy
goes on by his supporters who
remain in the army and that
within six months they will
be able to control it. Still
another has it that the Sous
telle group dreams of max
ing a great coup d'etat and
regaining both Morocco and
TuniS.
Certainly the army is in
French politics to stay for
some time. When suggested
to Soustelle that his plan
would make the army a polit-
ical instrument, he shrugged,
and said, This is a political
war" He processes to have
great respect for de Gaulle,
but his followers are bitter
and it is impossible not to be-
lieve SouStelle also is vindic-
tive. His supporters see him
as one day head of France.
They think there will be one
political figure to follow de
Gaulle, that he will fail, and
Soustelle's star then will rise.
Meanwhile, French opinion
is with lie Grand Charles.
French students oppose the
Soustelle program. He can
not muster street demonstra-
tions. Continental metro
politan France is interested
in peace.
