DAVID LAWRENCE
The Conmur

The Communists have put
over a gigantic hoax. They
have almost persuaded a gull
lible world to believe that the
West German people are re-
sponsible for the outbreaks
of anti-SemitiSm in recent
weeks. Actually, proof now
has been obtained that the
whole thing is a Communist
plot,
The Soviet Government
maintains an active appara-
tus of agents in all countries,
including the United States.
The same technique that was
employed in West Germany
was used throughout the
world. 1t is one of the bold
est pieces of propaganda that
the Communists have ever
tried. Will they continue to
get away with it?
Already they have been as
sisted by the persons who
pooh-pooh all Communist
espionage and artificial prov
ocationS. Yet no such CO.
ordinated activity as the
world has been witnessing
could possibly be just the
work of hooligans or persons
bent on playing pranks. Some
individuals doubtless can be
found who engaged in it
without inspiration, but the
facts now coming to light
show that the Communists,
acting through their appara-
tus in East Germany, started
it all in West Germany as a
political maneuver to diScredit
the Adenauer government.
A United Press Interna-
tional dispatch from Bonn
on January 20 says:
The West German gov
ernment announced today
that it has proof the Com
munists are behind many
recent anti-Semitic incidents.
An official spokesman said
after a full-scale cabinet
meeting that the ministers
discussed at length the ques-
ton of Communist inspira-
ton of the rash of anti
Jewish activities. He said the
Interior Ministry. in cooper
alton with the state govern
ments, will publish a white
paper on the subject at some
future date still to be deter
mined.

Educators See Doubling of Graduates
BY Admitting Only Capable Freshmen

During the past year, ma
tional trends have indicated
a decreasing interest by to-
days high-school students in
the rigors Of an engineering
education"
This was from one Of sew
eral annual reports by presi-
dents of universities and en-
gineering and technical in
stitutes which I find to be
better reading than most of
the fiction in these days. The
national enrolment average
of freshmen in engineering
and technical schools is down
an astonishing II per cent.
But this does not find the
presidents sad and downcast.
On the contrary, they are
encouraged. They believe they
can double the total of the
graduating classes by in
creasing the enrolment only
so per cent.
This requires no tricks Of
magic. 1t means admitting
students of higher capabili-
ties and not wasting the
faculty's time, or that of the
able students, on a big fresh
man class, half of which is
not able to do the work.
The engineering and tech
nical schools which are a
part Of the State university
system have had a more diff
cult time in raising standards
of admission and of curricu-
lum. This is especially true in
the Southeast and, to a much
less degree. in one or two
New England and Western
States.
For generations they have
Evening star., 1960-01-22

had to accept any graduate
Of an accredited high school
within the States. Only in
recent years has it been pos
Sible to obtain permission to
set up admission require
ments which weed out those
who are hopelessly without
background to do the neces-
Sary technical schoolwork.
The tremendous impact Of
the Russian missiles and sat-
elites in orbit about the
earth had two effects, one
unhappy. 1t created a pop
ular image Of the scientist as
a man occupied with outer
space and its fiction-like
qualities. This has distorted
the public opinion about
science and engineering.
But it has shocked into ac-
ton State educational boards
which had been content with
the status quo. They have at
last given ear to the presi-
dents Of institutes of tech
nology and allowed them to
begin to elevate standards Of
admission and curriculum.
This is good. And since indi-
cations are they will be sub
jected to further shocks, we
may anticipate increasing
willingness to permit the in
stitutions they govern to
strengthen both entrance re-
quirements and classroom de-
mands.
Helpful as this is. it does
not meet the real need. The
basic fact is that there are in
the Nation hundreds of thou
sands of elementary, and hun

more subtle reasons. One is
that he-quite like Field
Marshal Earl Montgomery in
Enthusiastically feels that
in dealing with President Eli
Senhower he is dealing with
a rather junior officer. He
has no great confidence in
Mr.. Eisenhower's high stra-
tegic ideas-probably because
Charles de Gaulle had the
status of a high commander
while Dwight Eisenhower was
still a lieutenant colonel.
Again, the French soldier
President is impatient with
what he considers the mere
details of foreign policy. He
wants to think only of the
grand sweep. He has, for ex-
ample, taken up the notion
that the West should concert
with the Soviet Union on
some pilot-model scheme of
Joint aid to neutral under
developed lands. The United
States and Britain, for their
part, would be delighted if
some far less grand-but real
concert could be actually
obtained just within the West
itself.
And again, Gen. de Gaulle
is wholly convinced that what
he calls "the Anglo-Saxon
bloc" meaning the United
States and Britain - have
some sort Of a private club to
which he is not admitted.
So in all this situation only
one forecast is clear: This is
that Dwight David Eisen-
hover is going to be in for q
vigorous time of it when he
sits down here in April with
Gen. Charles Andre Joseph,
Marie de Gaulle.

French Chief Viewed as Convinced
He Must Cue West in Cold War

thought President Eisenhower
had promised to give to
Frances policy for ending
the Algerian revolution. This
irritation has grown, not
eaSed, since Mr.. Eisenhower's
goodwill call on him in Paris
a few weeks ago.
Gen. de Gaulle, moreover,
is increasingly upset at the
continued American refusal
to give genuine atomic help
to this undoubtedly vital ally
in the heart of Europe.
Finally, he is more and
more sensitive to suggestions
that his main purpose in life
is simply to restore Frances
grandeur" This view, which
is widely held both here and
in London, is not merely an
noying to him; it is deeply
resented. There is every prob
ability that this resentment
will be frankly expressed in
private when the French
President meets the American
President.
Gen. de Gaulle and his
people feel that the accusa-
ton of mere grandeur-seek-
ing is not only nonsense.
Worse yet, they feel it is a
kind of fabricated retort, be-
cause critics have no better
one, to the fact that the
French President is alone
among top Western states
men in looking at cold war
realities straight in the face.
But beneath these imper-
sonal explanations for a

toward his allies there are

that they should personally
show results on issues such
as civil rights, education and
housing IL they are to remain
in the Senate. 1t is highly
desirable that they should be
able virtuously to proclaim
next fall that most Republic
cans are on the side Of the
angels in the chamber over
which the Vice President pre-
sides. Mr.. Nixon himself nat
urally would prefer not to
break tie votes this session in
favor Of a conservative CO.
alition.
So the ak has been handed
to House Leader Halleck and
his conservative forces,
drawn from both parties in
the House. The veteran
Hoosier is netting it with a
lack of hypocrisy and a kind
Of wholesome relish which
are q refreshing antidote to
the sanctimoniousness of so
much present-day politics.
Mr.. Halleck does not even
make a secret Of his hope that
his services will be rewarded
by Mr.. Nixon with the vice
presidency, a horrid word in
the lexicon of so many Dem
ocrats and Republicans. He
is still a very long shot in
the winter book.
Other factors are i'm
portant in the new look the
Senate is starting to acquire.
The South's strength has
been eroded by two new
States with their four Sena-
tors and two congressman.
1t has for some time been
crumbling at the borders Of
Tennessee and Oklahoma.
