Admired So Far

So far, the teen-agers have
won admiration from Koreans
and Americans alike. This cor
respondent has found no evil
dence the students moves have
been unpopular.
They have acted courageously
to chase out of Office corrupt
elements their elders had toler-
ated far too long. They have
splintered the entrenched Lib
eral Party. They have dis
graced Korea's greatest goth
century patriot, Syngman Rhee,
who had fronted, Willingly or
unwittingly, for political hacks
who oppressed the people while
enriching themselves.
z But now the teen ayers
haven't the know-how to put
Humpty-Dumpty ogeth e r
again.
Their elders are not sure they
have, either. No leaders are
volunteering for the Job. The
interim chief minister, Huh
Chung, was drafted to be
foreign minister and was dumb
founded when the reins of
government were turned over
to him by Mr.. Rhee.
Not Taken Seriously

Gals and making ringing state

SEOUL, Korea. - There's an
opening for an effective new
broom here. A convincingly
clean government is needed
and it's needed quickly to head
off more violence by an aroused
mass of students who could
easily acquire dangerous delu-
sionS of grandeur.
The Republic of Korea is
now in peril of government by
teen-agers. Every move of the
National Assembly and the
caretaker cabinet is subject to
veto by student demonstration.
1t is frequently overlooked
that large numbers of middle
school studentS-equivalent to
our high school set-partici-
pated with the university con-
tingentS in the demonstrations.
1t was a middle-school demon
stration on election day. March

to boiling.

said after the recent Quantico
military policy conference that
a forward strategy is necessary
"as a matter Of principle"
He went on to say: My
opinion is that one of Mr..
KhruShchev's main objectives
in life is to destroy our COL
lective-security arrangements
and to thereby destroy our
forward strategy and to push
us back into what has some
times been referred to as the
Fortress America position, and
in my judgment we cannot
permit these things to hap
pen"
The reasons for insisting or
keeping the bases are both po-
Ilitical and military, Mr.. Gates
pointed out.
Pentagon officials amplify
his remarks by citing these
reasons:

clear weapons are part of the
regular United States arsenal
now.
In military circles here, the
tendency is to discount specu-
lation that Red China may
detonate her own first test
atomic bomb within a year Or
so. Experts do not say that a
nuclear test might not be made,
but believe that if it is done
it will be a Soviet device fired
by Soviet technicians. The
purpose would be psychological
support for the Asian ally.
The feeling is that China still
must perfect her industrial ma
chine before moving into nu-
clear weapons and other ultra
modern items.
Hints of this may be found
in published announcements by
Chinese officials. They speak
of advances already made in
the basic steel industry. but
use the future tense in relating
this to other phases of in
dustry.

By JAMES G.. DEANE
Star Record Critic


Gustav Mahler's music by
1861 should count for more
with the public. This is the
Mailer year, marking the
centenary of the VienneSe
composers birth, and the
record makers are taking
due note.
1t is interesting, and
somewhat mystifying, to
contemplate the difficulties
Mahler's works have had in
winning public esteem. Why
have medals had to be offered
to induce conductors to make
a kindly gesture now and
then toward a Mailer score?
Why are some Mailer SYM
phonies still almost never
performed, at least outside
Central Europe?
There seems nothing suf-
f1ciently forbidding or un-
palatable about any of these
works, whatever their Struc-
tural or other shortcomings,
to justify public aversion.
Far less worthy music is per-
formed frequently enough.
Indeed, the generally big,
rich, and certainly nowadays
far from radical sound of a
typical Mailer composition
is the sort that ought to have
fairly quick appeal in an age
when concertgoerS and con-
ductorS alike seem to have
unwavering loyalty to
Brahms and Richard Strauss
and Dvorak and others of the
late romantic school.
Late Believer
Whatever the causes, the
situation is improving. This
is illustrated by some COM
ments by Fritz Reiner on the
jacket of a Victor recording
of the fourth symphony of
which he is the conductor.
In my long conducting ca
reer," the leader of the Chi
cago Symphony states, Il
have gone through various
reactions to (Mahler's) enor-
nous creative output, begin
ming with outright rejection
Qargely due to my youthful
ignorance), then growing by
degrees to respect and puz-
zled admiration, and ending
with conversion to the group
of True Believers"
Mahler's own prophecy
that my time will come" DR..
Reiner adds, he now feels
was right.
Every man will have to
test that prediction for him
self. But as far as the lyrical
and mellow fourth symphony
goes it should be a sizable
order to provide a recording
making a better case for it's
merits. The weaknesses
which even True Believer"
Reiner acknowledges in the
symphony disappear in the
glow and vitality of the per-
formance and the luster of
the recorded sound. Addi-
tional attraction is provided
by the happy contribution of
Lisa della Casa in the vocal
stanzaS. Those listening in

any conceivable defense prob
lem has been misplaced.
The fact is, however, that de-
spite a recent Spate of pub
lished reports about plans to
get along without bases, top
defense officials are convinced
that overseas bases are neces-
sary and that they can be pre-
served for the foreseeable fu-
ture. This specifically includes
bases in Japan, which have be-
come one of the targets of riot
ing dissenterS.
This countryis base policy
and its forward strategy" that
makes them necessary is under
continual review. But the con-
clusion is always the same:
This country must keep sub
stantial forces close to the edge
OF the communist world.
Now, with new agitation IN
Japan and Okinawa against
American bases. the question is
being asked again in the Penta-
CONS International Security
Affairs Office: Is it possible to
keep those bases in the face OF
opposition?
During the recent crisis, as
during the previous crises with
American allies, the answer
reported by the ISA is that
some adjustments in the base
structure are always needed
but that the fundamental Sc,
curity of the system is no
endangered.

from Spain. These objects
represent Indian cultures of
Colombia, including such rich
ones as the San Agustin,
Quimbaya, Tumaco, Chiocha
and Calima. Their ceramic
sculptures and utilitarian OBJ
jectS, too, are numerous and
well represented in the show.
Such intuitive feeling for
design and skillful crafts
manShip made the Indians
apt pupils for the Spanish,
as eXemplified in baroque Co.
lonial arts. The Indians put
something of their own into
the religious figures, intricate
carving and other objects
which distinguishes them
from European work of the
same periods. The lifelike
polychromed statues with
elaborate haloes and neck
laces should be particularly
popular.
Impressive Exhibition
Some of the contemporary
Colombian painters in the
exhibition have been seen in
one-man shows in Washing
ton: Fernando Botero at the
Ores Gallery two years ago,
Alexandra Obregon at the
Obelisk (if ! recall correctly
and others at the Pan Ameri-
can Union which has a con-
tinuouS program of introduc-
ing Latin American artists to

the show in Miami that he
requested that it be taken to
Washington, and he pre-
Sented to Imperial Petroleum

The show was enthusiast
cally welcomed by the Pan

charge of the installation,
which because of the collec-
tionS' size, necessitated a
large architectural frame

icas. About three-fifths of
the original collection is
being shown.
