U.S.. Peril: Communist InfiItrdtion

and directed by a few hard
core Communist agitators
who were carrying out their
textbook orders on insurrec-
ton with classic success.
Leaders of the mob included
faculty members and we'll
known leftist lawyers for the
Fifth-Amendment Commu-
nists."
The real story of Commu-
mist activity among students
in Japan is just emerging.
The Tokyo correspondent of
U. S. News & World Report
in a dispatch last week said
Japanese security officers
were convinced that funds
for student demonstrations
there had come from Russian
reserves built up in Japan
through book sales and "cul-
tural tours"
Within the last "a hours,
the United Press Interna-
tional reported from Tokyo
that international commu-
niSm poured hundreds of
thousands of dollars into
Japan to oppose President
Eisenhower's visit and to
fight the new Japan-U. S.
security pact" The dispatch
added:
This confirmed earlier re-
ports from Hong Kong which
said the Chinese Communists
were supplying huge sums to
visitors to mainland China
who returned to their home
lands to promote the Com
munist line. Some of
the FUNDS went to assist
unions which reluctantly
supported the anti-American
forces against their real
wishes but which were in
need of money"
When will the American
people wake up to the fact
that the biggest danger in
the near future isn't a nu-
clear war, but Communist
inflltration? Just at a time
when exposure and full pub
licity on Communist methods
and tactics are most needed,
there is a tendency on the
part of left-wing groups in
this country to give aid and
comfort to the Communist
cause by trying to Illustrate
or abolish the only congress
sional machinery available
for investigation and ex-
posure of Communist intrigue
in America.

Reality Viewed as Giving Ex-Governor
Little Chance for Nomination
WILLIAM S. WHITE

Rarely has reality been so
hidden by fantasy as is now
the case about Adlai E.
Stevenson in the pre-conven-
ton campaign for the DEM
ocratic Presidential nomina-
ton.
Mr.. Stevenson's highly
emotional hackers see a
"groundswell" for him which
is simply not visible to the
detached observer. They ar
que that the Summit confer
ence collapse has strength
ened a Draft Stevenson"
movement which never exist
ed in the first place.
The plain truth is that a
Stevenson draft" is not
more but less likely than be-
fore the Summit. His attack

stration's policies on the eve
of a United Nations trial of
the United States on Soviet

boomeranged.
Even among many sympa-
thetic to the substance of
what he said this is now ad-
mitted. What he said might
have been all right. But when
he said it was all wrong.
For example, it can be
stated confidently that one of
those who associated himself
with the Stevenson criticism
Senator John F. Kennedy
now regrets its timing. And
yesterdays general assump-
ton that Mr.. Stevenson
would wind up as Secretary
Of State should Senator Ken

has no automatic validity
whatever.

Against House Probers Sample of Threat


labor unions, the press. the
theater, the colleges and the

Not long ago a student"
demonstration occurred in
San Francisco. 1t got head
lines because demonstrators
sought to discredit the House
Committee on Un-American
Activities, which was holding
a hearing there. Representa-
tive Gordon H. Scherer of
Ohio, Republican, who pre-
sided at the California ses-
sion, said in a speech to the
House of Representatives on
June 2:
Let me state categorically
that the shameful San Fran
cisco city hall rioting was not
a spontaneous outburst Of
student indignation against
the House Committee on Un-
American Activities, as many
people would like for us to
believe. Approximately
three years ago the Commun-
iSt apparatus decided that, If
it's operations in the United
States were to be less ham,
pered and more successful,
it had to get rid of the Com
mittee on Un-American Acti-
vities, discredit the great
director of the Federal Bu-
reau of Investigation, and
generally weaken the FBI'S
influence and powers.
Representative Scherer gave
a detailed account of how
persons admittedly members
of the Communist party had
helped to steer civic and stu
dent organizations TO parClcl-
pate in the demonstrations.
Unfortunately, some church.

Senator's Hopes Viewed as Dependent

Sometimes Speaker Ray

been trying to hold those
Texas Democrats together
with his bare hands ever
since he put on shoes. Even
with a presidential candidate
on their books they threaten
to go divided to the national
convention in July.
The Speaker has often said
that the trouble with the
party in his State is that
about 100000 well-heeled
Texans are really Republi-
cans but won't get out of the
Democratic ranks at home.
Generally through the years
this is the bloc which has
given him trouble.

he prefers those Eisenhower

is considerable reason to

GRACIOUS PHRASES, BUT
Manila Cool to Presidents Talk

On the subject of aid, Fill
pinos feel that the United
States takes them too much
for granted, while wooing
former enemy and neutraliSt
nations with large aid pro-
grams.
American officials point
out-and 1t appears to be
true--that vast amounts of
aid were poured into the
Philippines after the war
and some of the money was
wasted.
U. S. Seems Big Brother
Nevertheless, the Filipinos
look on the United States as
their big brother. In the
Philippines, If a younger
brother comes to an older one
to ask for a loan, he expects
to get it--not a lecture about
how he wasted the money he
got a while back.
In his speech, and at other
times in more informal talks,
Mr.. Eisenhower has re-
marked on economic prog
ress in the Philippines. His
words have given the impress
sion that the picture is rosy
in this former American
colony.
If it is, Filipinos can't see
it. They are living from hand
to mouth, and the scars of
war are still evident across
the land. They aren't hun
cry, but 2 million out of "a
million people either are out
of work or struggling along
on part-time jobs.
