criticism of national me-
mortal art and sculpture in
the Washington area may be
great verbal exercise for
adolescents. amateur artists
and publicity seekers, but it
i'll befits a man of Secretary
Udall's prominence and office
to waste time offering ques-
tionable advice on closed
business.
However. Secretary Udall
could render a signal service
to art and artists, both local
and national, If he, were hon.
estly interested in artistic
performance and in assisting
in improving knowledge of
art through providing proper
facilities for such education.
In the Interior Building. On
the top floor, is q gallery
that was especially designed
and built, under the direc-
ton of Harold Ickes, to pro-
vide space for the exhibit
ton OF local and national
art. Upon Secretary Udall's
advent to office, I wrote his
executive secretary, Orren
Beatty, about this facility
and never received the cour-
tesy Of a reply. I presumed
this to exemplify the measure
Of his interest in art.
II Secretary Udall and this
administration are serious
about doing something for
the cultural arts. here Is a
good place to begin.
AS soon as the present
Smithsonian building Is
taken over for scientific pur-
poses, there will be no gallery
available for local or ma
tional artists to exhibit. The

supposed to provide this
facility and now we have

Simple Life Held Key to

18) should be food for
thought for the Federal Avi-
alton Agency. The story
mentions that Seventh-day
Adventists males have 40 per
cent fewer diseased heart ar
teries than the public.
Some time ago FAA re-
moved proven healthy airline
pilots from their Jobs upon
reaching their 60th birth
day. concluded that this
was a horrible example of
unjustified discrimination of
the Government to industry.
However, If one of the
pilots so affected happened
also to be an Adventist, or
as virtuous, then I think
FAA's action was even worse

VISTAS IN SCIENCE
Curiosity May Tame Wild Tribe
By THOMAS r. HENRY

wrist which holds the bow in
shooting position.
"The entire population Of
a Motilone community is
housed in one large 'bohio,'
an oval hut about 1876 feet
long. Bohios have but one
opening on the rooftop to let
light in, and several doors
about 3 feet high.
THE missionaries now have
visited about so of these
bohios."
The cause or causes Of
great numbers of fevers,
sometimes producing acute
illness, but seldom more than
a few days duration, remains
completely unknown.
The National Institutes Of
Health now is in the midst
of a five-year research pro-
gram to get at the bottom
of this mystery. 1t has just
been reported to the Ma
tional Academy Of Sciences
by Drs. j. A. Bell and R. j.
Huebner of the NH staff.
All febrile illness which can
be traced to known agents
flu, polio germs and the like,
are excluded from the study.
Fever Rate Constant
There is a possibility Of
a single major disease en-
tity, the report says. Also a
great number of different
maladies are possible. The
rate of the mysterious fevers,
according to the report, re-
mains fairly constant over
the years and is three to
four times higher in pre-
school children than in
adults. They are a constant
worry to mothers. About all
a family doctor can do is
give a nostrum of some kind
and hope for the best.
Special studies are under
way of babies in a welfare
institution whose inmates
constantly are changing.
About 1000 blood specimens
have been examined. All sorts
Of bacteria and viruses have
been found, including many
previously unknown, but
none can be explicitly
blamed. says the report.
Sometimes a considerable
variety are found in one
child at the same time. Only
one is believed responsible
for that particular fever and
it cannot be set apart from
the rest.
There is always the possi-
bility, it is stressed, that
some bacterial or viral agent
may cause only mild fevers
for years and sud denly
emerge with great virulence.
This is a major reason for
the extensive search program.

Demands Action

For a long time I have
been worried and irritated
by the lack of fast action
at high Government levels,
and by what appears to be
an appalling ignorance of
history. particularly United
States history.
Many Of the courses Of
action that made this coun-
try powerful and respected
are being ignored almost en-
tirely today.
I refer to our conduct in
the field of foreign affairs.
We are so busy talking
and trying to negotiate with
friend and foe that we have
forgotten a vital lesson our
founding fathers learned
long ago: Actions speak
louder than words.
We can't impress a de-
termined enemy with words
no matter how many pairs
OF striped pants accompany
those words. We can't i'm
press our friends with words,
either.
We have got to take ac-
ton. It's time we stopped to
take a bearing and change
our course. If we don't stop
Soviet expansion the world
will have so little respect for
us that we will lose many
Of the friends we are count
ing on In an emergency.
I believe we should d
counter Communist expan-
sion at every important
point on the globe. and that
we should blockade Castro
and move in on him at the
earliest moment.

Korean Juntu

Once again the United
States has shown complete
inability to cope with a new
situation in Asia. Our Gov
ernment's initial. antagonis-
tic attitude against the South
Korean junta led by Gen.
Chang Do-Yo'ng has lost us
many friends in the only Far
Eastern nation whose people
have always been staunchly
pro-American. Although Gen.
Chang's past record has in
dicated nothing less than life
long service in the cause of
human freedom, we have neg
lected his intention Of cor
recting the ills of Premier
John M. Chang's democracy.
Where we should have been
lauding our Korean allies for
seeking to improve a free
society based on our own,
we have criticized the leaders
Of the coup simply because
they are military men in uni
form.
AS a former Korean lin
guist for the United States
Air Force, I am discouraged
by widespread ignorance of
the people who live on that
vital peninsula. I have had
occasion to meet Koreans of
all classes. including prom
inent army leaders and pow
erty- stricken peasants. I have
been inspired by their devo-
tion to principles which we
Americans take for granted
beyond elementary school age.
On April 19. 1860, I saw stu
dents being shot down In the
streets Of Seoul fighting to
topple a police state that
we had supported for years.
At heavy cost in life, DR..
Syngman Rhee's despotic re-
gime was removed, only to
be replaced by a free govern
ment with better intentions
than practices.
The state ents made
against the new Korean gov
ernment by Gen. Carter Ma
gruder are a classic example
Of one Of our military lead
ers overstepping his author
ity and meddling in a matter
beyond his jurisdiction. I
sincerely hope that the State.
Department will yield to the
junta's sincere desire to be
recognized and assisted in
its struggle for a better
Korea, and that firm disci-
plinary action will be taken
against Gen. Magruder for
criticizing without first con-
Sulting.
We must never forget that
the country where $1,000
Americans died is one Of our
most dedicated friends. not
only in the cold war, but in
liberty and dignity.

THE POLITICAL MILL
We Turn Other Cheek to Castro
By GOULD LINCOLN

mained almost completely in
the dark - except for pub
lished reports Of all kinds
emanating from sources other
than the Government of the
United States.
Castro is getting away with
this ransom demand. Men,
berS of Congress are exercised
over what future demands
are to come from the Cuban
dictator and what our Gov
ernment will do. They fore
see Castro, still further
strengthened by Russian n
arms, including missiles OF
great destructive power, go
miles away from our coast,
blackmailing us again and
again. Not even in the Sc
cret meetings Of the Senate
subcommittee have they been
able to discover that this
Government has any plan to
deal with the Communist
government in Cuba-except
to furnish financial and
economic aid to the other
Latin-American republics in
the hope of prevailing upon
the Organization Of American
States to join with us in steps
against the Communists in
Cuba. They are already under
treaty obligations to fight
Communist control, fostered
from the outside, in any
American state.
Lawyers Accuse U. S.
Meanwhile, a group Of
widely known lawyers in
this country has assailed
the Cuban invasion and the
part this country played in
it, charging that the United
States has violated interna-
tional law and treaty COM
mitmentS to oppose invasion
of American republics. 1t
looks as though we are to be-
come involved in legalistic
debates while the security of
the United States continues
to be ignored. The law and its
technicalities have been used
many times in this country
to save criminals from
punishment. Followed to its
ultimate conclusion, the
argument advanced by this
group of lawyers would have
us disregard the threat Of
communism in this hemis-
phere and ask forgiveness
from Fidel Castro.
Americans are peace loving
people. We have turned the
other cheek to Castro many
times in the past. 1t is a long
time since President Theo-
dore Roosevelt thrilled the
country with his message to
a Moroccan Sultan in 1904
saying: "Perdicaris alive or
RaiSuli dead" PerdicariS. an
American citizen, had been
abducted from a villa near
Tangier by the bandit Raisuli
and held for ransom under
threat of death. Many Ameri-
cans have been arrested in
Cuba and imprisoned on
trumped up charges by Cas-
tro. The imprisoned Cubans
are not American citizens.
Ransoming them is the least
we can do. Col. Roosevelt
sent the United States Cruis-
er Brooklyn to Tangier be-
fore Perdicaris was released.
We have a naval base at
Guantanamo, Cuba.

One Of the most remote
and intractable aboriginal
peoples of the New World fl
nally have been brought into
contact with civilization.
These are the Motilone In
dians Of Venezuelan jungles.
Up to now all efforts to
approach them have been fu-
tile. The Indians early be-
came bitter against white
men and resisted every at
tempt at any kind of COM
munion.
The Venezuelan govern
ment credits Franciscan mis-
SionarieS with breaking the
barrier. It was an extremely
difficult job. The jungle was
an impossible barrier. The
Franciscans had to be con-
tent with an occasional hell
copter flight over Motilone
territory. On these occasions
they always dropped peace
bomb" bundles of clothes,
food and salt. The MotiloneS
showed their hostility by
holding bows and arrows on
the ready every time a plane
flew over them. The Fran
ciscans also set up a mission
house at the edge of tn e
deepest jungle.
Curiosity Too Great
Little by little" says a
Venezuelan government re-
port, fear and suspicion
have given way to curiosity,
The Motilones would come to
the mission furtively at
night to take away things
left for them. Then the mis-
sionaries would come across
them on jungle trails and
try to talk with them in sign
language, but always at a
distance. MotiloneS speak no
Spanish.
"A break has come this
year. A government helicopter
flew over the Motilone terri
tory and dropped a monks
habit for an easier recogni-
tion of the wearer at some
future time. On the next
flight a helicopter did land
and the visitors were greeted
with reserved cordiality. Bet
ter relations developed as
flights became more frequent.
"The men look physically
strong and rather lean. Both
men and women have finer
features than other Venezu-
elan Indians. Attention was
attracted by the unusual
growth of the left big toe
in men to three times its
normal size. This is explained
by the practice of holding an
end of the bow with the
left toe to shoot the arrow.
All men wear a band Of some
kind Of fiber on the left

RanSoming the Cuban
rebels held by Fidel Castro.
premier of the Communist
controlled government of the
island, is a humanitarian
move. 1t will not settle the
problem of Communist sub
version and infiltration into
the Western Hemisphere, nor
the threat to the security of
the United States and all the
other A m eric a n republics.
The ransom money - esti-
mated variouSly from $40 to
$40 million-is being raised
by private contributions,
which will be used to pur-
chase and send to Castro 500
United States-manufactured
tractors and bulldozers. 1t is
the least the people of the
United States can do to help
the Cuban freedom fighters,
with whom most Americans
sympathize. The State De-
partment has given it's ap-
proval to the plan. The ne
gotiations for the ransom of
these 1900 Cuban rebels are
being conducted and the
funds raised by a group
headed by the widow of a
former President Of the
United States, Mrs. Franklin
D. Roosevelt; a brother Of
another former President,
Milton Eisenhower, and the
head Of the United Auto
mobile Workers Union, Wal
ter Reuther.
Since responsibility and
blame for the Inflated Cuban
invasion has been accepted
by President John F. Ken
nedy, it is strange that Castro
has not demanded his ransom
money from the United States
Government. Castro made the
proposal to ransom his pris-
oners in a speech. The hu-
manitarian-minded people of
this country have taken the
Government off the hook.

Rebels Were Patriots

The Castro ransom demand
has been widely described as
"blackmail." 1t is true that
Castro imprisoned the rebels
who were seeking the over
throw Of him and his govern
ment. 1t was civil war-and
no other war is so cruel. 1t
must be remembered, how
ever, that these Cuban rebels
were patriots, opposing a die
tator and Communist form of
government. They were aided
and abetted by the United
States. Further. President
Kennedy has said this coun-
try will not abandon Cuba
to the Communists and has
warned Castro that the pa
tience Of the United States is
not inexhaustible. Just what
he Is prepared to do he has
not said. A subcommittee of
the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee has conducted
closed hearings Of Govern
ment officials to learn just
who master minded the
Cuban invasion, although
President Kennedy assumed
the responsibility for our part
in it. The subcommittee has
also sought, but without sue
cess, to learn the RESPONSE
bility for the failure of the
invasion. The American peo-
pie, meanwhile, have re-
