ISSUE

and strongly fortified. Never
since the disaster Of 1949
have the Communists dared
another attack and it seems
unlikely they will try again.
Even if they should, serious
United States involvement
with a chance of war is re-
mote. We could do nothing
on the islands, as the issue
would be determined long
before we could intervene. At
sea we might keep commu-
nication with Formosa open,
as We did to a certain ex-
tent when the Communists
were shelling Quemoy a
couple of years ago, but
again the prospect of heavy
involvement is not likely to
occur.
These islands are not be-
ing defended for their mere
intrinsic value any more
than Great Britain defends
Gibraltar for its intrinsic
value. In both cases import
ant strategic considerations
govern.
L. B. Moody.
- &&,
It is reported in your paper
that Mr.. Nixon told an audi
ence, "You may not have
heard Of Quemoy and Matsu,
etc." and after insulting their
intelligence with this remark
goes on to distort the realistic
and firm argument Of Sen
ator Kennedy.
On this grave issue of world
Importance Mr.. Nixon is ap-
pealing only to peoples emo
tionS while Senator Kennedy
is appealing to their reason.
Catherine N. Goldman.
Il y 4
One angle Of Kennedy'S
Matsu. Quemoy "offshore"
islands stand which has not
been sufficiently stressed is
that he wishes us because of
Communist threats to give
up more ground and particu-
larly more people to the
Communists and to commu-
nism. There is a moral prin-
ciple involved in this consid-
Grafton which it seems FASH
ionable and convenient for
many to ignore. The prin-
ciple is this: We are morally
bound to defend our people
(all those who do not believe
in communism) against COM
munism and particularly
from being swallowed UP by
Communist aggression. asa

GE Strike Break

The back-to-work move by the 8,700-
member local of the Tue at the General
Electric Schenectady plant presents
James B. Carey, the union president,
with what is probably the most serious
challenge of his career. It also provides
a glimpse of some of the hazards of
staging an unpopular strike.
Since the strike began October
at all GE plants there has been an ex-
change of bitter statements between
management and union, each blaming
the other for the walkout. 1t is difficult,
however, for an outsider to evaluate the
merits Of such a verbal controversy.
But now the debate has shifted to new
ground - to an exchange between
SpokeSmen for the international union
and for the local. According to the for
mer, the back-to-work move is ian ir-
responsible and undemocratic action"
and any union member who returns to
his job is a "Strikebreaker. But Leo
Jandreau, business agent for the Sche-
nectady local, has his own ideas about
this. He says he is convinced that Mr..
carey mas nothing more in mind than
tight to the finish with GE, regardless
OF the consequences, even if this fight
to the end results in dissolution of the
union" And this union spokesman adds
that I'VE will not be subdued by a
wouldbe dictator"
Whatever the fact as to this, the
abandonment of the strike by IUE's
largest local at GEES largest plant,
coupled with indications Of unhappiness
in other locals, bears out the belief
that this strike is highly unpopular
where 1t counts moSt-with the strikers.
The Tue, of course, represents some TO-
600 GE employees scattered across the
country, and most of them may stay in
line. Nevertheless, it looks very much
as though Mr.. Carey is in deep trouble.

Still With Us

The advances in the control and
treatment Of tuberculosis have been so
dramatic in recent years that it comes
as something Of shock to realize the
extent to which this -once-rampant
killer is still with us. AS was emphasized
at recent conference of Washington
area tuberculosis associations, for ex-
ample, there is little consolation in the
facts that the tuberculosis rate in the
District of Columbia. ranks second
among, major cities of the country, that
last year 7O1 new active cases were dis
covered here, that there were 657 Dis
trict admissions to the tuberculosis
wards at Glenn Dale Hospital and that
113 residents of the city died of this
disease.
And OF even more Sobering concern
is the high incidence Of tuberculosis in
specific areas of the city. In clearly
de1nable parts of the downtown, the
Southeast, the Second Police Precinct
and Columbia Heights, to mention lust
few, new tuberculosis victims are being
discovered at the startling rate of over
100 per 100000 population These are
the areaS-in contrast to the city-wide
mass surveys of the paSt-where the
tuberculosis fight must be concentrated
today. And in larger sense, the preva-
lence Of the disease in these areas en-
phasizes the need to develop more effec-
tive techniques through urban renewal
. and other programs to wipe out the
physical evils of slunS, overcrowding
and ignorance-for these are the breed
ing grounds of tuberculosis and other
illnesses Of the mind as we'll as the body.
Evening star., 1960-10-18

In The Star of October IL.
Staff Writers Broder and
Holland discuss Quemoy and
Matsu as an issue in the
presidential campaign, but
do not give a real picture of
why the Republic of China
regards these islands as of
great Importance to the de-
tense of Formosa.
The strategy is simple. The
Communists have announced
their determination to take
Formosa. If they ever make
the attempt, they must have
a port Of departure for the
start Of the large operation
which will be required. The
best port is Annoy, directly
opposite Formosa. The Que
moy group of islands sits
squarely in the entrance to
Annoy harbor, and hence the
port Of Annoy can not be used
as long as Quemoy is held.
The next best port of en-
barkation is Foochow over
100 miles to the north of
Annoy and farther away from
Formosa. Foochow is pretty
well covered by Matsu. Hence
Chang holds Matsu.
In addition to this being
good strategy, there is his
torical precedent for his ac-
tion. Three hundred years
ago Q66D Cheng Chen
kung was losing to the Mon
golS. He decided to withdraw
to Formosa and took For
mosa from the Dutch. But
he left a strong garrison on
Quemoy. which prevented an
attack on Formosa.
The Communists thorough
ly understand the situation,
and on october Is, l949
launched an all-out amphib-
ious attack on Quemoy with
about 10000 picked troops.
At the time Quemoy was
lightly garriSoned and with
out Notifications. Even
barbed wire was lacking.
Under cover of heavy artil-
lery fire from the mainland,
about $4,000 Red troops
managed to reach the beach.
OF these, the Nationalist
counted about 1000 dead and
took about 1000 prisoners
with all their equipment. All
landing craft were destroyed
and no Communist who land
ed escaped unless by SWIM
ming several miles.
The islands are now heav-
lily garrisoned with well
trained andpequipped troops

THE POLITICAL MILL
BY GOULD LINCOLN <I
Kennedys Me, Too Foreign Policy

that this kind Of talk was
just playing into the hands
Of the Communists.
In his most recent state
ments, as in his appearance
on MICS television broadcast
Meet The Press" Senator
Kennedy has said he does not
believe good could come out
of a 1861 summit meeting
with Mr.. Khrushchev, unless
there had been prior work
done at "the second level
presumably the diplomatic
level-and there was some
reason to believe that a meet
ing with the Russian Premier
would be fruitful. This Is iust
what President Eisenhower
has been contending right
along-and it is Mr.. Nixon's
position, too.
Okays Anti-Peiping Stand
Senator Kennedy also goes
right along with President
Eisenhower-and Mr.. Nixon
in asserting his opposition
to admitting Red China to the
United Nations at this time,
in view Of China's aggressionS
and its warlike attitude.
Even on the question of deal
ing with the Cuban situation
and Castro, Senator Kennedy
is going along with the Presi-
dent-although he has at
tackled Vice President Nixon
for not learning, when he
visited Cuba five years ago
what was going to happen.
Former Ambassador to Cuba,
Gardner has now refuted the
Senator's attack on Mr..
Nixon. and secuted the idea
that the latter should have
undertaken, when in Cuba,
to- interfere with the right of
Cuban people to decide what
government they should have.
Furthermore. Senator Ken
nedy has said that the United
States is still the most pow
erful military country in the
world. This, too, is the posi-
tion Of President Eisenhower
and Mr.. Nixon. But when he
was asked on Meet The
Press" If he did not stand
with Mr.. Nixon on this ques-
ton, he sought to show that
he was bent On building a
stronger national defense
than is Mr.. Nixon, that Rus
Sia was growing stronger
more rapidly thar is the
United States. He apparently
is finding, however. that
Americans do not like to
have any leader sell this
country short"
Senator Kennedy, it de-
velopS, goes right along with
President Eisenhower and Mr..
Nixon on the question Of
West Berlin, one of the most
teasing and difficult of all the
issues in the field of foreign
relations.
Where then, is this new
leadership which he promises
in the field of foreign affairs?
These issues are the most
important that confront the
country. Senator Kennedy
may believe himself q greater
leader than President Eisen-
hover. and apparently he
believes himself q greater
leader than Vice President
Nixon. So far he hasn't pro-
duced any important new
plans to deal with our inter-
national situation. The recent
meeting Of the United Nations
has shown that this coun-
try'S prestige in the world Is
still high and that it still has
friends, despite the gloomy
picture painted by Senator
Kennedy. Mr.. Khrushchev
and his colonial" supporters
the satellite countries-
were defeated at every turn
when they locked horns with
the United States and the
Western or Free World.

ton is vital to an early start on the
water-safeguarding system. Indeed, Con-
gress has served notice, In committee
reports on the plan, that it will not
tolerate any feuding of the sort that SO
long held up the Theodore Roosevelt
bridge project.
Evening star., 1960-10-18

Inc otepupncanS are ask
ing and properly - what's
become Of the brave, new
leadership which Senator
John F. Kennedy, the Demo-
cratic candidate for Presi-
dent. has been promising in
the most important area of
public issues today-foreign
affairs? AS the campaign
has progressed. Senator Ken
nedy has become the "me too"
man. the man who stands
with President Eisenhower,
and since Vice President
Nixon goes right along with
the President, the Senator
apparently stands with Nixon.
Senator Kennedy's latest me
too" is his declaration that
he stands with President
Eisenhower, and has always
stood with him, on the Que
moy and MatSu Islands and
whether they should be de-
Tended by our armed forces.
The facts do not bear out this
contention Of the Senator
from Massachusetts,. When
the congressional resolution
authorizing the use of the
United States armed forces
to. defend Chinese-National-
ist held Formosa was before
the Senate in 1855, he sup
ported an amendment offered
by former Senator Lehman Of
New York which would have
excluded the Presidents Gau-
thority to 60 to the defense
OF Quemoy and Matsu. The
President and the great ma
jority Of the Senate-Demo-
Gratis and Republicans-op-
posed this amendment, which
was defeated. In the second
place, Senator Kennedy in
his second debate with Mr..
Nixon stated fatty that he
believed that our line of de-
fense Of Formosa should be
drawn around Formosa and
the PeScadores. This is not on
all fours with President Eli
Senhower'S position. The
Senator's statement that he
would seek to bring about
this new line of defense
excluding the two off-shore
islands-might easily be re-
garded by the Chinese Reds
as an invitation to 60 ahead
and take them.
He has found that this
stand is not popular. So he
now accuses Mr.. Nixon of
withdrawing from the posi-
ton he took in the second
and third televised debates
in opposition to the Senator's
stand, and insists that he
(Sen a tor Kennedy and
President Eisenhower are Just
alike in their position. Mr..
Nixon, however, did not
change his position at all,
which was to defend the off
shore islands, rather than
hand them over to the Chi
neSe Reds.
Wants to Drop Issue
Senator Kennedy is now
suggesting to Mr.. Nixon that
the issue be dropped in this
campaign, on the ground that
to continue the argument
might make the Communists
believe the United States is
divided. What a change has
come over the Democratic
candidate. who earlier had
insisted upon discussing
United States foreign affairs
at a time the Soviet Premier
KhruShchev was coming to
the meeting of the United
Nations in New York. He
and his Democratic sup
porterS continued to insist
that the United States was
going down hill. that mill
tarily, economically and Dip
lomatically it was falling be-
hind Communist Russia, al
