Stress on Military Strength
The main thrust of the

ever, concerns itself with mass

munist leadership.
One Of his principal recon-
mendations Is to encourage
India and Japan to announce
q kind Of Monroe Doctrine for
Asia, declaring free areas in
the Far East off limits to the
Red Chinese.
The Undersecretary desig-
nate. who participated with
Mr.. Rusk in writing the Rookie
feller Panel report on foreign
policy in 1859, believes that
problems Of recognizing Red
China or admitting her to the
United Nations have been di-
versionary and kept the Omitted
States from concentrating on
the more serious prospect that
Washington will find itself
the only power with enough
strength to stop Red China If
she moves into Southeast Asia.
Mao Tse-tung would meet
with "contemptuous refusal"
any offer Of recognition which
did not include recognition of
Red rule over Formosa. Mr..
Bowles wrote in the Foreign
Affairs article. The same re-
sponse would meet any over
ture to admit both Chinas" to
the United Nations. The Els
enhower administration has
stressed these same points In
arriving at its own policy to-
ward the China problem.
U. S. China Policy Unison
Because the questions Of
recognition and admission to
the U.N. are mot at the mo-
ment solvable," Mr.. Bowles
proposes that the United
States should urge Nationalist
China to join in basing their
p policies toward mainland
China on nine assumptions:

but ANY measures necessary to

were a coup. the United States
should institute an economic
and naval blockade to deny the
Peking government effective
occupation" Mr.. Bowles rec
ommends. The commitment to
defend Formosa must be un-
equivocal," he says.
The two-Chinas concept he
advances may well take time
for both the Formosan and
mainland governments to ac-
cept. the Undersecretary-desig-
nate Acknowledges. but he
holds out hope for eventual
acceptance Of "the facts Of

nate warned that perpetuating

time when its leaders should be

points advocating change In

China:

Relations Committee, called
for a careful examination
yesterday.
They are likely to find, how
ever, that the Undersecretary-
designate's attitude is more
hard-nosed than they expected.
Mr.. Bowles has on some occa-
sions exhibited a flare for
flexihility in tactics, but he
insists this should not be
allowed to cloud his stead
fastness Of purpose in opposing
Red Chinese programs inimical
to American interests.
In Accord With Rusk
He is expected to stress. in
his testimony. his complete
agreement with Secretary of
state-designate Dean Rusk, who
already has undergone a mild
hazing on Red China by the
Foreign Relations Committee.
Doubling Senators are likely
to ask Mr., Bowles about his
speech before United Press

fishers here last September,

Speaker Sam

The member of the House of Repre-
sentativeS who has broken more records
for service than any man in history was
lauded by his colleagues the other day
for his most notable accomplishment of
all. On Monday, Sam Rayburn COM
pleted 16 years, 273 days as Speaker
of the HouSe-exactly twice as long as
his nearest predecessor, Henry Clay,
had held the job.
AS one colleague put it, "Mr. Sam"
can truly be thought of as ''indestruct-
ible, imperishable and indomitable"
Indeed, as Representative Cannon of
Missouri noted, his power and authority
today probably exceed even that of
such giants as Speakers "Uncle Joe"
Cannon and Thomas Reed who, at the
turn of the last century, operated under
rules which gave them the absolute and
arbitrary authority to appoint COM
mittees of the House, to chair and
control the House Rules Committee and
to bar recognition on the House floor.
In 1911, all these powers of the Speaker
we're sharply curtailed. Yet, according
to Mr.. Cannon:
You get the full measure of the man
when you consider that under these modern
rules Speaker Rayburn, by the sheer power
of his personality, has not only held that
great office for 16 years but today exercises
a greater power than has ever been exercised
by any former Speaker If you desire to serve
on any particular committee you go to the
Speaker. . If you want rule you do not
go to Chairman Smith but to the Speaker
of the House. If you desire recognition you
consult the Speaker.
In all the long and stately procession of
illustrious men who have occupied that
exalted position he is the greatest and the
most powerful. We salute him. In the critical
days ahead his strong hand at the helm is
needed as never before.

election of James R. Hoffa and John F.

treasurer of the teamSterS' union.)

tions, the letter said, not from any
union treasures"
The voluntary" response to this
appeal is apt to be rather overwhelming,
because Mr.. Hoffa has way of getting
what he wants from his union cohorts.
Nor are the voluntary contributors
likely to overlook this final paragraph
of the letter: please be certain to
forward the list of names of persons

Unnecessarily Punitive

The rejection by Federal Judge
Oren Lewis of the Governments request
for permission to intervene as plaintiff
In the Prince Edward school case hardly
comes as a surprise. For the Depart
ment Of Justice made no substantial
showing that its entry into the case
would serve a useful purpose.
1t is true that the Attorney Gen
erals spokesman claimed intervention
was necessary to prevent the "circum-
vention and notification" of the court
ruling which led to the closing of
Prince Edwards public schools. Judge
Lewis said, however, that "in Virginia
this complex [desegregation] problem
has been and is being solved in lawful
and proper manner through the courts.
There has been no known defiance of
this courts orders by either the State
Of Virginia or the County of Prince
Edward -" The court also said that
to permit the department to intervene
would "unduly delay and prejudice" the
rights Of both parties to the case.
The strangest aspect of the Attorney
Generals petition was its request that
the court prohibit Virginia from spend
ing money on public schools anywhere
as long as Prince Edward schools
remained closed. The inevitable effect
Of this would have been to force the
closing Of public schools throughout
most Of the State, thereby denying
education to hundreds of thousands of
children, white and colored. It has
been said that this was not the intent
of the department, but It's counsel
refused, in court, to delete the request
from It's plea. Judge Lewis also rejected
this request, saying that 1t would be
unnecessarily punitive" which GER
tainly Is the fact.
There are those who think that
the real motivation behind the depart
ment'S request to intervene was political
in nature. Whatever the fact as to
this, the Prince Edward case, we think,
can be effectively disposed of by the
court without the help of the Depart
ment Of Justice-especially in view of
the punitive aspect of the latter's
petition.

THE PASSING SCENE
u. S. Aid VS.. Church Mission Aid
By RALPH McGILL

Now and then" said q
weary and somewhat cynical
Senator, Il want to ask some
OF my more sanctimonious
contemporaries, at moments
Of their more distorted and
irrelevant attacks on foreign
aid, if they think their
churches have been pouring
money down a rat hole of
waste in foreign missions.
"One could easily do so If
one wished to be as irrational
as they. We have had mis-
sionarieS, schools and hospi-
tails in China for half-a-
century or more. The mis-
Sionaries were jailed or ex-
PEELED and their property
taken over. We've had mis-
sionaries in Africa for more
than a century, but one
can't point to any influence
they have had in preventing
the violence of the Congo or
other turbulent areas. Also,
if the African converts were
to come here, the doors of
most churches would be
closed to them. What has
happened to the three CEN
turies Of the church in
Cuba. =?
1T would be just as SEN
sible to say all the billions of
foreign missions have been
wasted as to charge foreign
aid has been a boondoggle.
I'm tempted but I won't get
up on the floor and match my
omniscient friends in irrele-
vancy.
I'VE know" he said, that
foreign aid saved Greece and
Turkey. 1t likely saved Italy
and France-and, therefore,
Europe. 1t enabled the Euro
peans to get back on their
economic feet so we'll they
are now giving us serious
competition.
In Need of Revision
IAN honest observer must
admit that for the past 10
years foreign aid has been in
need Of revision. This was
true because there was a new
situation in the world" the
Senator said, 80, now we
must revise it. Our motives
for it are mixed, part self
interest, and part a genuine
concern for the needs of peo-
pie. More than two thirds of
the worlds population are
hungry. illiterate and without
medical care. Millions live
a whole life and never see a
