Liberal Looic

1t has been the task Of
liberals in recent days to in
form the general public of the
wisdom in establishing a lis
tening post" in central Asia
by recognizing the Commu-
mist puppet state Of Outer
Mongolia.
These same liberals are
talking in such terms as
negotiate" and "free city"
in answer to Khrushchev's
extortion attempt to steal
West Berlin.
In other words, United
States power and influence
should retreat from the
heartland of Europe and ad-
vance into the Cobb Desert!
When will Americans re-
alize that the liberal logic is
incapable of ever finding the
will to win in the continuing
war with communism?

Welcome Inquiry

Officials of the American Stock Ex-
change have taken a commercially re-
SponSible position in favor of the
proposed Securities and Exchange Com
mission inquiry into operation of the
Nations securities markets, including
their own.
While defending before a House
Commerce subcommittee the Asses own
regulations and their enforcement, the
chairman and president of the exchange
not only Endorsed the suggested govern
mental study but said they believed the
recommended $3.50, 0,0OO-appropriation is
mot sufficient to do the Job" ASE
Chairman Joseph F. Reilly even proposed
that additional costs of such an inquiry
might be offset in part by increasing
the Federal fee on transactions in listed
securities on registered exchanges and
by extending this charge to overtime
counter trading that is now exempt
from this fee. ASE President Edward T.
Mccormick, once an SEC member, in
agreement with Mr.. Reilly added that
"by all means" the inquiry should be
undertaken.
Actually, the SEC and the individual
exchanges do continuing job of regu-
lating and policing the issuance and
trading of securities There are, of
course, violations of regulations at times,
and new circumstances in the financing
marketS-some of which were mentioned
by Mr.. Reilly as proper subjects for
the pending inquiry-sometimes create
unanticipated problems. It is obviously
in their own interest, however, that ex-
change officials should be vigilant
against any loss of investor confidence
in the marketing machinery. In the
long run, it is even more in the public
and national interest that this conf
dence be strengthened and protected.
On this basis, the ASE officials have
taken sound position before the House
committee. The SEC study should be
authorized and undertaken on a most
comprehensive pattern.

Here are two suggestions
for reducing the worry about
the excessive outflow of gold
from the United States.
First: Have arrangements
made for the embassies in
Europe to sell American tour
lists abroad the soft moneys
we hold in those countries.
the currencies which the
United States has accepted
in exchange for goods, and
then let them bring in more
rather than less goods free
of duty.
Second: Stop initiation that
makes an ounce of gold
worth more than $35. There
are two suggestions for slow
ing down if not stopping in
flation. One is to sell Gov
eminent bonds for currency
now in circulation, that is tn
actual buyers, instead of
printing new money and
lending it to the banks with
which to buy the bonds. An
other stop-inflation move is
to provide a means of keep
ing powerfully organized la
Dor from forcing wages up
more rapidly than increased
productivity juStifieS.
These methods would do
much to solve the problem Of
our unfavorable balance and
the outflow of gold. OF
course, foreigners will prefer
an ounce of gold to $35
when that ounce of gold will
buy more abroad than will
the $35. Henry c. Taylor.

THE WORLD
Allies Attitudes on Berlin Vary
By CROSBY S. NOYES
FOREIGN core.po.d.nt Of n. s,ar

Wloe range OF opinion. Off
cially, as the notes released
yesterday made clear, the al
lied position is precisely what
it was in 1854: That the prob
lem Of Berlin is part of the
larger German problem which
can be solved only on q basis
Of self-determination for all
German people. But since
this admirable argument has
been violently rejected by the
Russians on every occasion
over the last seven years,
there Is little reason to sup
pose that it will be accepted
as a practical basis for dis
cusSion now.
View Of Soviet Objections
Unofficially there is a
growing interest - particu-
larly in Britain - in. the
argument that Mr.. Khru-
shchev'S major objective at
this point is not so much
Berlin itself but recognition
OF the East German govern
ment and the Oder-NeisSe
frontier between Germany
and Poland. In return for
such recognition, it is sug-
geSted that Mr.. KhruShchev
might be persuaded to rec
ognize West Berlin as part
of the Federal Republic to-
gether with the right of the,
Western powers to maintain
a permanent garrison there.
Admittedly there are enor-
nous problems involved in
any such solution. Recogni-
ton Of the East German re-
gime would put an official
stamp on the division Of
Germany and do much to
consolidate RuSSia's hold on
its East European satellites.
In their recent notes, the
three Western governments
specifically rejected any So
luton which seemed to "con-
firm the existence of two re-.
gimeS in Germany and create
IN Europe a situation of ten
sion dangerous to everyone"
On the other hand, it can
be argued that this stu
alton, in fact. already exists
and that Germany will never
be reunited by agreement
between the four powers. In
deed it seems likely that if
Identification comes about at
all it will be as a result Of
direct action by the Germans
themselves. And for this to
happen the existence of two
governments able to negoti-
ate directly with each other
might help rather than him
der the process.
Beyond this it is pointed
out that while recognition of
East Germany would be a
major concession by the
West, recognition Of the per-
manent status of West Ber-
lin by Russia would be no
less great. And while such
a solution could hardly be
considered ideal from any
ones standpoint. it might
in the long run be a prefer
able alternative to nuclear
war.

Foreign Aid

The London Times has
taken a look at the $1,135,-
100000 in foreign aid given
by the United States to Iran
in the last decade and here
is what the Times lists as
the by-product of this for
eign aid.
Initiation. economic dislo-
cation, corruption, unhealthy
theft, exchange difficulties,
chronic balance Of payment
gaps, record corruption in
contracts, waste on imports,
economic wobbliness, and an
attitude of there is plenty
more where that came from"
These are not the usual
terms with which foreign aid
is peddled by the Washing
ton bureaucracy of interna-
tional spenders to Congress
and the public.
1t seems to me that the Lon
don Times is able to take
an objective view since it isn't
British money that is being
given away. In this matter
of foreign aid, we are now
begging people to take our
money and be neutral. We
are giving our money to Com
muniStS who tell us that in
case of war the Communist
countries. Poland and Yugo-
Slavia, will line up with Rus
sia. What are we arming
them for? What are we CIV

to see this historic spot where
our Government had its be-
ginning. With unfettered
spirit of heart and mind
for we had learned that there
was no segregation permitted
in the restored area of early
18th century williamsburg
we arrived at the information
center where we witnessed a
film depicting the events of
the jamestown Settlement,
the early Government of Vir-
ginia at Williamsburg, and
the conflicting ideas of Gov
ernment that led to the Rev.
olutionary War.
After the film, we bought
tickets to see the exhibits in
the restored area. At q near
/, by desk we requested two re-
served tickets (preferably
aisle Seats) to see ''The Com
mon Glory" a pageant pre-
Sented at the Lake Matoaka
Amphitheater near the Col
lege of William and Mary.
The clerk phoned for reSer-
vationS and then informed
as that two seats in Row x
were available. We requested
two seats further front. Her
reply was that Negroes must
sit in rows x and Y accord
ing to the segregation law
of Virginia. This crushed
our "unfettered spirit" Ma
turally we refused to pay SO
each to be segregated.
