The Western world, indeed
the whole Communist
world, owes a great debt of
gratitude to French Presi-
dent Charles de Gaulle for
speaking the simple truth.
Statesmen in every nation
have an understandable habit
Of circumlocution. They beat
about the bush on every oc-
casion, play coyly with words,
avoid directness as a habit.
Unfortunately, often the di-
rect and unvarnished truth
would serve their purposes
better, and almost always it
would certainly serve the
world better.
But Gen. de Gaulle, no
mere amateur himself when
it comes to the proper use of
the well-chosen phrase, dis
dains to hide his real views
behind a facade of verbiage.
When the matter at hand is
significant enough, and when
the real story needs telling,
the man who has been de-
Scribed as "the conscience of
France" speaks out.
It should have come as no
surprise when Gen. de Gaulle
turned the full force of his
Gallo verbal guns on the
faltering United Nations re-
Gently. The great man who
lost patience with the ridicu-
lous pickering and Intellectual
splinterization of the French
Fourth Republics National
Assembly could hardly be ex-
pected to admire the shifty
maneuvering and sometimes
dangerous compromises in
dulged in by the General
Assembly Of the U. N. and by
the Security Council.
In the De Gaulle view, the
entire structure of the U.N.
needs to be rebuilt, just as he
himself rebuilt the tottering
structure of the French gov
ernment and ended the long
years Of vacillation, of inde-
ciSivenesS, of inability to
function that afflicted the
Fourth Republic.
The timing Of the French
Presidents remarks on the
U.N. was in itself significant.

GETTYSBURG, Pa. - At
this low moment of the
United States world position,
former President Eisenhower
was q statesman in politics
and every inch a five-star
general at the disposition Of
his Commander-in-C Chief.
He indorsed the purposes Of
the Kennedy foreign policy
and underscored that in
dorsement with the candid
disclosure that his admins
tration had participated in
the early stages of the abor-
tive Cuban invasion.
He told Americans to keep
their eyes fixed on those pur-
poses and stand by their
President.
He said vehemently that
the last thing in the world
they should want is an imme-
diate public airing of the
Cuban fiasco and likened it
to witch-hunting. Twice he
declared he saw no use in
raking over old ashes and as
signed that job to historians.
I'VE have a future ahead of
U.s." he added sternly.
He disclosed also that he
had cancelled his planned
trip to Japan next fall at the
suggestion of the State De-
partment. He said he was
bound to accept the Govern
ment'S advice and so should
any American citizen.

bilize the moral force Of the
world, either through the
United Nations or through the
collective action of our own
allies.
For certainly the United
States should not be expect
ed alone to solve the worlds
problems. Canada, for in
stance, can hardly play foot
sy with Red China on a
trade basis and escape crit
iciSm in the United States.
Nor can France ignore the
United Nations, even though
her own Algerian troubles
are acute. Britain can fur
nish manpower, too, and so
can Australia and New Zea-
land.
The answer indicated, as
the first step, therefore, is
an appeal to the United Ma
tions. If the Communist in
vasion of South Wet Nam
and Laos is not stopped and
if Castro continues to get
military assistance from the
Soviet Union, these situa-
tionS would constitute, under
the U. N. Charter, a threat
to the peace Of the world.
If the u. N. doesn't act,
then it becomes a duty Of
member nations to organize,
under Articles 81 and So, a
program of collective defense.
Cuba has violated inter-
national law repeatedly. Cas-
tro's government has confiS-
Gated the private property Of
foreigners and has made no
real compensation for what
was seized. The dictator has
offered worthless bonds. It
becomes the duty Of the col
lective alliance to secure re-
Spect for international law
and past commitments.
So the whole situation, it
would appear now, will go
before the United Nations
for decision. Unless some un-
toward act forces a military
operation in the meantime
that might require the Un-
tied States to go it alone
anyhow, some kind of group
action may be expected in
which various members of
the Organization of Amer
ican States also would be
asked to join. It looks like a
lot of negotiation through
diplomatic conversations be-
fore there Is any important
military action.

There we have the crux of

They were made at a press
conference in the ElySee Pal
ace only three days after the
White House had announced
that. President Kennedy was
to visit Paris.
There could be little doubt
that, in making his very
sharp and discerning COM
ments on the U.N. and on
the nature and organization
and effectiveness of the
North Atlantic Treaty Or
ganization, Gen. de Gaulle
was putting his youthful
guest-to-be on notice. The
two subjects are certain to
be a very important part of
the Paris talks, and Gen. de
Gaulle is not considered
likely to back away from the
stand he has taken.
At the U.N., said Gen. de
Gaulle, the Assembly has
taken unto itself the powers
and functions that are sup
posed to be exercised by the
Security Council. AS a result,
he said, the Security Council
has disintegrated, and the
Assembly now interferes in
matters that the U.N. Char
ter was specifically drawn up
to check. "The Assembly =.

and anything" the general
observed.

Department officials, in dis
cusSing the case, quoted the
cafe manager as saying that
II the colored visitor had
made it known he was a
U. N. diplomat he would have
been served. This was a
damning confession, how
ever naively made.
What the manager was say
ing, in effect, was that only
American citizens are sub
jected to such discrimination.
If foreigners will identify
themselves they will be
served. This story is a pop
ular one at the U. N. and
already has appeared in many
newspapers around the
world.
Prejudice, to be sure, is
not to be confined to the
South, but the essential diff
ference is that in the rest
of our. country discrimina-
ton is not established and
sustained by local laws. This
is the key point. 1t leaves the
South vulnerable to the in
dictment of willful and un-
reasonable prejudice and dis
elimination.
1t is no longer possible to
defend the common practices
Of prejudice, even though
they continue. Most Southern
erS are becoming aware of
the fact that going to school
is not, after all, q social act
and never was. Going to
school consists Of proceeding
to the building, sitting in a
classroom, receiving instruc-
ton, and going home. 1t is
simply not true that going
to school is a matter of mix
ing the races in the true
sense Of that phrase.
Also, more and more per-
sons are becoming uncom-
fortably aware of the fact
that it is an insult to all

compare United States pres
tige today and during the
campaign last fall.
He answered seriously,
carefully and in detail.
Popularity at any one mo-
ment, he said, was not the
test, and no strong admins
tration was ever really
popular in q crisis. The
achievement of respect for
our words and the actions
which must implement them,
he said, was and would
always be filled with risks.
The immediate effect Of
Gen. Eisenhower's comments
must be to encourage and
cheer the young President,
who has taken such a beat
ing and reacted with some
thing less than the grace
expected of him. Democrats
who never really managed
to work up a partisan fervor
against Gen. Eisenhower will
count themselves justified.
In political terms, however,
he has laid down q hard
furrow for elected Republic
cans ito harrow. Cuba pre-
sents a great temptation,
which they did not resist in
the case Of Korea; for that
matter, neither did Gen.
Eisenhower wholly resist it
when himself a candidate for
President.
Mr.. Kennedy has gained
a breathing space. The ques-
ton. Of whether he has or
can gain a bipartisan foreign
policy, which he seems to
want, is very much unsettled.

they think it cannot be al
lowed to continue without
comment.
This Is an easy way for
them to establish themselves
as a friend of all colored peo-
pies and the United States
as a prejudiced practitioner
Of discrimination. There is
great hypocrisy in this, but
there also is truth.
1t is no secret at all that
the Eisenhower administra-
ton understood this. Because
of new developments, Presi-
dent Kennedy and his cabinet
realize even more the grave
threat to our national future
which this delimma of racial
prejudice presents.
Mr.. Eisenhower repeatedly
appealed to the Christian
ethic and moral conscience of
Americans. This was largely
ineffective. The present ad-
ministration is see king to
make progress by private, di-
rect appe ais to Governors,
Senators, Congressman, may
ors and other persons of in
fluence. It also will make full
use Of processes Of law.
The point, which even
many people Of good will do
not understand, is that some
thing must be done. We do
not have too much time left.
1t is not at all an exaggera-
tion to say that our national
security and our ability to
continue as an effective
world power is being SER
lously damaged by all that
is wrapped up in a White
Citizens Council and a Ku
Klux Klan attitude.

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.
AT a recent State Depart
ment briefing in Washington
some 200 editors and pub
fishers, assembled by invita-
ton from all areas of the
Nation, were told that the
most difficult handicap our
country has in its foreign re-
lationShips st e m s from our
public prejudiceS toward col
ored peoples. The Secretary
of State, himself, speaking not
long ago in his native State
of q orgia, told the city's
first integrated meeting Of
lawyers that the American
image Of a free democratic
country was being done Sc
rious damage by our racial
prejudices.
Perhaps even more reveal
ing is a check of Russian
comments at the United Ma
tionS, made during the last
several months. The SovietS
know this Nation Is vulner-
able. They are aware of our
official concern, and as they
both watch and maneuver in
the d developing events in
Africa and Asia, the Soviets
are, Of course, eager to do us
all possible harm.
It is interesting, and dis
maying, to learn that they
now believe we are vulnerable
at home. So we see q new
indictment of us creeping into
Russian comments at the U.
N. They are typically subtle
about it. They note that this
is a domestic affair. In fact,
they emphasize this point. It
is an American decision. So,
having made this clear, they
then go on to say that while
they do not ordinarily COM

and Job opportunities on some
Americans merely because of
their color.
This country faces many
dangers. 1t is a time for plain,
honest talk and action, re-
gardless of how unpopular it
may be. Being an American
imposes obligations and re-
sponSibilitieS. One of them
is, no matter what our per-
sonal feelings may be, to do
all we can to make it pos
sible for all Americans to
have fair and equal oppor-
tunity.

The American people
might as well prepare for a
long-drawn-out struggle in
the Caribbean as well as in
Southeast Asia. There is no
quick or easy solution.
Wounded pride has caused
many an American to call for
military action in CUBA
take-over of the country.
Likewise, the desire to save
Southeast Asia from the
Communists has prompted a
demand in Congress and
elsewhere that American mil
itary forces be used to help
defend the Laotion govern
ment and the South Wet
Nam government a ainSt
Communist forces.
The prospect of putting
the people of this country on
a war footing because of
troubles anywhere in the
world doesn't create much en-
thusiaSm in the United States,
where the SatiSfaetionS of q
normal life are being en-
joyed by most people despite
the temporary recession on
the economic front. Anybody
with only a curSory knowl-
edge Of the main currents of
national politics knows that
President Kennedy. a shrewd
politician himself, doesn't
relish the idea of becoming
another Democratic war
President. He will stay out of
any war until absolutely
forced into it.
What then Of alternative
measures? It's the same old
technique-negotiate and de-
lay. Sometimes it works.
Sometimes it slaves off a war.
Then again it precipitates
one in larger proportions
than at first envisaged. For
the potential enemy could
miSconstrue the desire for
delay as a sign of weakness.
The Korean police action"
turned into war of three
years duration. 1t not only
upset the American economy,
but it cost more than 157,0 900
American casualties, with
nearly 6 million Americans
called into military service to
fight on q battlefront 5000
miles across the Pacific.
Today the American peo-
pie recognize that conditions

in other continents can pre-
cipitate q world war. But
they are reluctant to take
any step that might bring on
the big war. Once more it
could be a case of America
having her hand forced by
an unScrupulouS dictator.
What preoccupieS Washing
ton at the moment is whether
there is some other plan that
will stay the hand of the
contriving Communists and
yet will not call for military
action by the meager ground
forces of the United States.
For the truth is that, with all
the hullabaloo about missiles
and rockets and jet bombers,
the United States has gradu-
ally diminished its ground
forces. There are only six
American divisions today in
the standing army in conti-
mental United States, while
the eight others are scat
tered around the world-five
in Europe, two in Korea, and
one in Hawaii. The Marine
Corps has two divisions in
the United States and one
abroad. These facts have
been repeatedly published, so
the Russians know how limit
ed is our military manpower.
There is, Of course, as a
supplement, the power to
draft and to call up the re-
serves. This is where politics
comes in. It wouldn't cause
too much Of q commotion if
only a few divisions were used
and trouble didn't break out
anywhere else. But it would
be surprising If the Com
munistS didn't use the op-
portunity to stir up bigger
crises in Southeast Asia, es-
pecially in South Wet Nam,
which used to be a part of
Indo-C China before the coun-
try was separated in two parts
by the Geneva Conference in
1854. The Communists have
not since respected the neu-
trality agreements made at
that time.
While military action both
in Cuba and in Southeast
Asia cannot be ruled out-the
Communists may force our
hand-it seems q safe as
sumption that the United
States will try again to mo-
