BY J. A. O'LEARY
Star stan Writar

senator Fulbright, Democrat
OF Arkansas, has challenged q
statement by President Eisen-
hover in New York Wednesday
that the Communists have
made no territorial gains dur
ing his administration in any
area where American infiu-
ence and arms were involved. !"
Senator Fulbright said that
surely the President is not un-
aware Of the following:
u. The evacuation of the
Tachen Islands and their
abandonment to Communist
China.
"2. Recent events in Laos,
where Q government friendly
to the United States and one
to which we have supplied
nearly $3.50 millio~ In assist
ance has been rep aced by a
government friendly to the
Communists.
-. The loss Of the northern
half OF Wet Nam to the Com
munists.
=. The large-scale penetra-
ton Of the Communists into
the Middle East. in Iraq. Syria,
and, as q result of our with
drawal from the Aswan Dam.
into the United Arab Republic.
IS. The well-advertised in
fiuence Of the Communists in
Guinea, Ghana and in the yet
unsettled and chaotic Belgian
Congo.
Is. And finally, at our very
doorstep. how does one regard
the recent developments in
Cuba where. for many years,
our arms and influence have
been heavily involved?"
Sees Partisanship
The Chairman Of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee
accused Mr.. Eisenhower Of be-
coming bitterly partisan"
after having established an ex-
ceptional record for handling
foreign policy matters In q nom
partisan manner for nearly
eight years.
II shudder to think" Senator
Fulbright added. what will
happen II we should have q
controversial and partisan oc-
cupant in the White House and
q Congress controlled by the
opposite party"
The Arkansas Senator in
terpreted Mr.. Eisenhower's
Wednesday night speech as q
criticism Of Senator Kennedy
for having read and written
books. The Senator noted that
the President said of Vice
President Nixon and Mr.. Lodge:
"These men didn't learn their
lessons merely out Of books. not
even by writing books. They
learned them by meeting the
day-in, day-out problems Of
our changing world"
Defends Book Reading
Senator Fulbright said he was
brought up with the idea that
reading books of course I
don't mean comic books or
Westerns-was . good thing.
I thought 1t was universally
accepted by all modern men
that the reading Of books Is
one Of the most efIicient ways
to acquire the knowledge and
understanding which equips
one better to deal with and to
solve the 'day-in and day-out'
problems which confront us.
Surely the President cannot
wish to discourage our citizens
from reading books.
ION the other hand, he can
not be serious, in view Of
Senator Kennedy's IA years
of political life, considerably
longer than that Of the Presi-
dent himself, and in view Of the
Senator's very creditable COM
bat record in World War II, in
implying that the Senator is q
bookworm in an ivory tower
who knows nothing Of the
hardships and complexities Of
our troubled world"

Mr.. Miller in Command

Moderate Republicanism appears to
have won another command post in
G. O.P. ranks with election Of 45-year-
old Representative William E. Miller
of New York as chairman of the
House Republican Congressional Cam
paign Committee. For the record, Mr..
Miller fayors Vice President Nixon for
the partys presidential nomination and,
significantly, was so committed before
Governor Rockefeller of New York an
nounced that he was not a candidate.
He was also supporter of Representa-
tive Halleck of Indiana when the latter
unseated the Old Guard leadership of
Representative Martin Of Massachusetts
in the 86th Congress. In his new post,
the upstate New Yorker succeeds one
Of the most determined Old GuarderS
Of recent times, the late Representative
Simpson Of Pennsylvania.
In the first instance, Of course, Mr..
Miller'S new job is to help plan cam
paign strategy and financing for this
years Republican bid to recapture con-
troll of the House. 1t is not small task
in legislative body that has been
emocratic-controlled since the cleo
tions of 1854. It may not be easier in
the light of some admitted tensions"
which developed while the 34-member
campaign committee was making its
choice between Mr.. Miller and Repre-
sentative William M. McCulloch of Ohio,
the Old Guard favorite.
On the national front, the degree
of effectiveness of the Miller committee
is bound to have an impact on the pop
ular presidential voting. The volume of
straight-ticket support is of obvious i'm
portance and the House congressional
committee can play large part in help
ing to gain this In districts where it
might be vital to carrying the electoral
votes Of an entire State. Rated as able
and aggressive, the New Yorker to some
extent will be stalking his future politi-
cal career on how we'll he carries out

New Home in Sight

Nearby Virginia's George Mason Col
lege, which is branch of the University
of Virginia, is assured Of home Of its
own in the near future, thanks to initial
construction funds provided in Governor
Almonds budget for the next two years.
While the college will not receive all
the. money it asked for, the $550OOO
recommended by the Governor will pave
the way for a start on the first Of five
buildings. State budget officials point
out that planning for the branch has
not advanced far enough to warrant the
appropriation of more money now for
construction purposes.
AS matter of fact, only $4,000 Of
an original $4,000 fund for planning
has been used to date. Governor Almond
has asked the General Assembly to re-
appropriate the remaining $4,000. Uni
versity authorities have proposed that
the building program be divided into
three stages. The layout will include
an administration headquarters, IL
brary and laboratories, in addition to
ample classroom space. The site for the
college, on the old Farr tract near Fair
fax, already has been bought.
The branch has shuff1ed around
from one temporary location to another
during the past 10 years, with its very
existence at times threatened by dis
puteS over sites for permanent home.

Grateful Scholar

While visiting Peru on a
National Education Associa-
ton tour. I was impressed by
the gratitude and hospitality
of a former Fulbright scholar,
a native Peruvian Of meager
income, who had recently
studied in the United States.
This charming young lady, a
teacher now working for a
doctors degree at San Marcos
University. Lima. Peru, ex-
tended many courtesies to us.
Through the kind Offices of
our Fulbright scholar. we
went to the Ministry Of Pub
lie Education, where we were
briefed on education in Peru.
Dismayed to learn that only
about one-third of the pupils
in Peru go to high school, we
realized the aid that was
needed in this country. Sen
sitive to these needs. this un-
selfish scholar was voluntar-
lily devoting time on Satur-
days to teaching the people
Of the rural areas.
AS I left Lima, I felt that
the money granted to the
Fulbright scholars had been
wisely spent. Gracious. at
tractive, devoted to teaching
and to helping the illiterate.
this altruistic young woman
merited American aid and
was deeply grateful for it.

On Wrong Side?

Why don't I receive q
pension?
After reading that "twen-
ty offspring Of Confederates"
are on the pension rolls, 1t
occurs to me that my family
has been fighting on the
wrong side all Of these years.
My father and his two
brothers fought during the
Civil War on the side that
was trying to preserve the
Union-not destroy it. Now
joining my father in Arling-
ton Cemetery are my nephew,
two American cousins and
my brother = in = law who
fought and died to help make
democracy a reality through
out the world. My two Cana
dian cousins, fighting for the
same ideal, never returned
from the battle fields Of
Europe. My grandnephew,
presently serving in the Navy
us years.. thinks he is do
ing his duty in helping to
keep America strong and free.
What's wrong with us,
anyway? Why can't I draw
a pension? I am an of
spring too, but apparently
my family should haye been
fighting to destroy the Ma
ton and the principles upon
which 1t was founded. Is
loyalty a liability?

Steel Pact Benefits

The paid advertisement OF
the United Steelworkers In
The Star for January is is
a monstrouS misrepresenta-
tion Of the facts. 1t simply
is not true that "every Amer
lean will benefit" from the
settlement Of the steel strike.
On the contrary. every Amer
ican will not benefit; every
American will suffer from the
deal" accomplished by the
labor lords and the industry
baronS. They conspired to
the end that the United
States will have more and
worse imitation. Both direct
ly and indirectly. everV man,
woman and child under the
American nag viii pay for
this crime against the public
welfare. There is no valid
reason for anybody to re-
joice. The Star should not
have printed the Steel
workers advertisement with
out explaining that both in
premise and conclusion it is
false.

Virginia Sales Tax

Eventually - Why Not
Now?" editorial, The Star,
January IA, l960). I ask, why
now. why eventually? The
American people are un-
consciously leading them
selves into socialism. Our
governments, city, county,
State and Federal are becom-
ing more and more the die
tators to the people rather
than the recipients of the
peoples dictate. The citizens
and voters seem to have for
gotten that one Of the main
reasons we enjoy the high
est standard Of living In the
world is our freedom and
individuality. We have for
gotten how to think and act
for ourselves, leaving all our
social problems to our elected
representatives, who though
educated and intelligent men
have to think of the next
election.
II progressing, which we
think we are doing, means
the abolition Of the peoples
power to reason, then there
seems to be no real purpose
for our having a representa-
tive form Of government.
Why not hire an adminis-
traitor and staff on each
governmental level and every
one pay a set percentage of
his income into a common
fund to take care of all our
social problems for us?

VoIor of Man

More than 1000 years ago.
on seeing a dart fired by
a machine brought from
Sicily. the Spartan King
Archidamus exclaimed: "Oh.
Hercules, the valor of man
is at an end" He was way
ahead Of the story which now
touches reality with the ad-
vent Of the intercontinental
ballistic missile. 1t is only
now that we are faced with
the possible obsolescence Of
human qualities. such as
courage, skill and patriotism,
in warfare. The most virile
nation might not be able to
withstand another. inferior
to it in all natural qualities,
il the latter had some
decisively superior technical
appliance. Barbarism. with
the superior weapon, can win
over civilization. There is
even a more weird possi-
bility. DR.. Norbert Wiener,
noted mathematician, told a
national meeting of scien-
lists. Machines have been
developed that possess suffi-
cient originality to consider,
test. and then accept or
reject suggestions that have
been fed into them, arriving
at an answer long before its
operator can comprehend the
nature or long-range wisdom
Of its decision. The sorcerer's
apprentice had nothing on
such machines.
Is it time to discard the
old rule: Don't fire until
you see the whites Of their
eyes? Not yet, says Gen.
Thomas D. White. Air Force
Chief Of Staff. Men are still
important, he says. and the
manned combat airplane is
nowhere near its end, nor
will it be within such a future
as he can discern-certainly
ten years or more. Premier
Khrushchev did not an
nounce that the Soviet Union
was abandoning its manned
bomberS as was at first i'm
piled. a Pentagon policy
maker remarked.
1t is even argued that a
manned bomber can do
things that a mere missile
can't. The former has tlexi-
bility Of performance, can
carry a greater load than any
rocket. can carry different
kinds Of load. and can have
its mission altered.
Not yet. says the Bulletin
Of the Atomic Scientists. On
the clock pictured on its
cover, its "clock Of DOOM"
1t reset the hands to read
seven minutes before mid
night. In moving the clock
back five minutes, the Bull
letin said 1--WE are not sue
cumbing to a facile opti-
mism" based on improved
diplomatic relations.
Maybe this is a temporary
respite for the "valor of
man."

Person to Person

A recent letter contained
babblings that Wall Street
was behind all United States
wars. The writer seemed to
be afraid that there would
soon be another war because
of anti-Semitic acts being
perpetrated around the world.
I've always been under the
impression that the Japanese
attack on Pearl Harbor on
December 7, 1941, was what
brought the United States
into World War II.
Actually we didn't go to
war to save the millions Of
Jews put to torture before
their mass murder. And no
one is maligning the poor
German people who have
long since forgotten what
went on behind the walls Of
those concentration camps.

OLIVER STREET,


Dear Sir:
I'm past years my wife and
I have heard many discus
sions of the question whether
household pets can see the
image on the television screen
humans do. They often seem
so indifferent to both the
sights and sounds of TV. the
cats and dogs we and friends
have had.
I'VE question 1t no more.
"A few nights ago, Sammy,
the little coal black gremlin
with the short kinked tail
streaked all the way across
the living room and paved
frantically at the television
screen.
MY wife and I were as
amused as we were amazed,
for that cat of ours was after
the single thing that showed
on the screen at the moment:
a carrier pigeon which was
bringing an official message
to a little boy on a Paris
roof top during the past war.
This looked to Sammy
like fresh meat. And so
nearl But when he did not
succeed at first in capturing
it. Sammy jumped to the
arm Of a nearby chair, leaned
over, and paved at the side
Of the screen.
"A few nights later, a wom-
an in a TV play was idly
drumming her fingers on a
table before her. The action
brought her hand to the
lower front of the screen
when Sammy, no doubt
thinking Here's a nice lady
wants to play with me,
rushed over and paved at
her hand.
"At other times, Sammy
will appear to be watching
intently as he reclines, with
head cooked up. on a rug
before the set.
'Limpy, our handsome big
tabby, pays no attention
whatever.
Does this perhaps. mean
that Sammy has some special
faculty not common to cats?
Does he have better visual
acuity? Or do those other
cats land dogs) have more
sense than humans in that
they quickly label this stuff
that comes out of the box as
being mechanical-both the
sights and sounds-and not
worth wasting ones time
over? Not when there are so
many things one ought to be
doing instead!
Sincerely, F. D. McH."
