End to Threat?

Washington believes that the
Tshombe-Adoula alliance should
end the threat posed by the leftist
forces of Antoine Gizenga. and
keep the Communists out of the
Congo indefinitely.
The United States supported
the U. N. military action because
it felt it was the only way to
insure a stable Congo. Great
Britain, France, and many other
Western countries, however, criti-
cized the use of force and accused
the U. N. of acting as an "aggres-
sor." Most agreed on the need
for a united Congo, but objected
to the U. MS militant role.
Britain, especially, felt that the
U. N. was setting a precedent,
which might forever end it's use
fulneSs as a peacemaking body.
Lord Home told Parliament
that continued U. N. military ac-
ton might cause Britain to with
draw from the U. N. altogether.
Lord Homes comment probably
will be forgotten if Congo unity
is achieved. If Mr.. Tshombe re-
pudiates his agreement, however,
and the U. N. retaliates with force,

THE NATIONAL SCENE
A Holiday Low Ebb
For Domestic Issues

A string of major issues,
including controversial foreign
policy moves being debated with
rising vigOr, last week were wait
ing the completion of the Christ
mas-New Years interlude before
moving to frOnt-stage center of
the national political arena in
Washington.
The events that are shaping the
world in this 1861 holiday season
are largely from overSeas-the
Congo, Goa, Berlin, Bermuda, In
donesia, Lisbon and Brussels.
In greater contrast than usual
governmental activity in the Ma
tion'S Capital has been at a low
key.
Congress has been in recess
since September, but even the
few committees which have been
carrying on studies and hearings
here have gone home.
President Kennedy, back briefly
from his trip to Venezuela and
Colombia, flew to Palm Beach,
Fla, on Tuesday when his father,
former Ambassador Joseph P.
Kennedy. suffered a paralyzing
stroke. On Thursday, he flew to
Bermuda for two days of confer
ences with Britain's Prime Minis
ter Macmillan.
The President is not due back
in the White House until some
time after Christmas. Whether he
returns before New Years Day
depends in part upon his fathers
condition.

Early last Monday morning,
Indian troops invaded Goa and
Portugals two other enclaveS on
India's west coast. BY Wednesday.
Goa, Damao and Diu, all had
fallen, ending 400 years of Portu-
gueSe domination.
The armed action climaxed II
years of agitation by the Indian
Government for annexation of
the Portuguese territories. Prime
Minister Nehru'S view-as eX-
pressed in 1954-was:
"The movement for freedom in
India was not confined to any
part of the country. Its objective
was the freedom of the entire
country from every kind of for
eign domination. Inevitably, the
movement took shape in what was
called British India and ultimate
ly resulted in the withdrawal of
the colonial power and the estab-
lishment of the Republic of India.
That process of liberation will not
be complete till the remaining
small pockets of foreign territory
are also freed from colonial con-
troll"

Communists:
ALongR Road

Members of the Communist
Party, U. S. A., ignored the
Governments registration dead
line last week and now face new
legal action and possible fines
and imprisonment.
In the last decade, as the pendu-
lum swung hard to McCarthyism
and back the other way, there has
been a great deal Of heated debate
over the Internal Security Act,
known also as the McCarran Act.
Two questions have persisted
about major parts of this legisla-
ton: Are they constitutional?
Are they workable?
Earlier this year, after more
than 10 years of litigation, the
Supreme Court ruled that the
Communist Party, U. S. A., was a
Communist action" organization
under terms of the act, and an
arm of the Soviet Union.
In the wake of this ruling, the
party and its membership are re-
quired to register as such agents.
But the high tribunal did not
decide whether individuals so re-
quired would be forfeiting their
privilege of not discriminating
themselves, if they were indicted
under the Smith Act. The mem
bership clause of that law makes
it crime to be an active and
knowing member of an organiza-
ton which aims at the violent
overthrow of the Government.

The First Act =

In a dark mood, Mr.. Stevenson
said I'VE are witnessing the first
act in a drama which could end
with the (U. N.'s) DEATH"
On Thursday. however, he had
second thoughts and said that al
though improvement was needed
in the peace-making operations of
the U. NJ, much of the Assembly's
record this year was magnificent
and perhaps decisive for the fu-
ture peace Of the world"
The refusal of the Asian-Afri-
can bloc to condemn India's action
may lead to stronger agitation for
rewriting the U. N. charter. The
preponderance of these new states
in the U. N.-50 out of 1O4-has
reduced sharply the effectiveness
OF the big powers in the U. N. A
charter revision presumably would
alter the one vote-one country
concept.
1ndia'S invasion may provoke
debate about United States policy
toward that Asian power. The
ruling view for years has been that
India is the free worlds answer
to Red China in the underde-
veloped areas of the world. Even
though India does not support the

As MoroIizer

He made it clear then, and in
subsequent speeches, however,
that Indian policy was lone of
non-violence." In recent years,
Mr.. Nehru's constant pursuit of
this Gandhian principle resulted
in worldwide acknowledgment OF
his role as leading peacemaker
and moralizer.
India'S position at the fore
front of the non-aligned nations
of the world was so well-known
that India and "non-violence" be-
came virtually synonymous to
many people.
This view, however, did not al
ways stand the scrutiny of his
tory. India has been belligerent
when its national interest was at
stake. It has clashed with Pakis-
tan over Kashmir; it has put
down rebellious princes who OBJ
jected to the Indian Union; and
it has clashed with Red China
over disputed northern borders.
The running argument with
Peking over these borders prob
ably helped precipitate last weeks
Goan invasion. When Mr.. Nehru
announced that Red China had
seized more Indian territory tit
claims $1,000 square niles many
members of Parliament criticized
the Prime Minister for "appeas-
ing" the Chinese.
Mr.. Nehru did not want to pro-
woke an all-out war with China,

Congress Ahead

But it won't be long before
Washington again will be pulsat-
ing with politics and politicians
The 87th Congress reconvenes for
its second half on January 10. The
month always is a busy one for
the President in his relations with
the lawmakers. There are. for
example, his state-of-the-U Union
and budget messages, the latter
being worked out in close con-
Sultation with David Bell, Budget
Director.
One major problem must be
faced by CongreSs-or one part Of
it-alone. That is the selection of
a new Speaker of the House to
succeed the late Sam Rayburn.
Majority Leader Mccormack of
Massachusetts, is the favorite. And
within the House, the Democratic
-1ajority will have to name sue
cessor to Mr.. Mccormack, if he
moves up. Representatives Albert
of Oklahoma and Boiling of Mis-
souri, are the leading candidates
and real battle is in prospect.

Strong Position

This time, however, U. N. troops
are in a strong position to en-
force the agreement should Mr..
Tshombe try to back down. AS
part Of the pact, Mr.. Tshombe
agreed to abide by U. N. resolu-
tions-including the expulsion of
"mercenaries" who comprise most
of his officer corps.
The United Nations is conf
dent that a reunited Congo will
allow the fledgling nation to be-
come a viable state. The revenue
from Katanga will reduce the
amount of U. N. economic sup
port needed, and a Tshombe-
Adoula alliance should eliminate
the threat of civil war and an
archy.
More than that, however, a
strong Congo will silence critics
who have charged the U. N. with
sowing rather than ending chaos
in the Congo.
The United States, which has
stood behind the U. N. action
throughout, was delighted with
the results Of the Adoula- -Tshombe
agreement, and only hopes Mr..
TShombe does not renege again.

The Intentions?

The United States and Britain
have been trying to find out from
the Russians what their intentions
IN Berlin are. If Mr.. Khrushchev
wants to "legalize" his puppet
East German state that is his
business, the West states. He has
no right, however, to force the
West out of Berlin, or to otherwise
intimidate it.
Mr.. Thompson, presumably, will
try to find out if the Soviet Union
Will guarantee the Vests rights
and thus eliminate the present
uncertainty aggravated by con-
slant Incidents" in Berlin.
II the Russians will make such a
guarantee, then it can be assumed
that "a reasonable basis for nego-
tlatlons" has been reached.
the communique issued by the
two leaders also called attention
to preparatory work being carried
out by the United States and
Great Britain for atmospheric
nuclear explosions. Both countries
nave previously stated that in
light of the recent Soviet explo-
sions, they would test in the air
II necessary to prevent the Rus
slams from gaining any military
superiority.
They emphasized, however, that
II agreement can be reached with
the Russians on disarmament,
nuclear testing may net be neces-
Sary. Probably for sentimental
reasons, though. the leaders post
poned an announcement that the
atmospheric tests would be held
