A Fighting General

The Army has lost one of its out
standing combat officers with the res
ignation Of Major General Edwin A.
Walker. But this does not mean that
General Walkers fighting days are over.
For he intends, as a private citizen, TO
carry on the battle. which led to his
break with civilian authority in the
Pentagon.
A reflection of General Walkers
character may be found in his decision
to resign rather than retire. II cannot
accept retirement" he said, with its
emolumentS and benefits. To do so
would be compromise with my prin-
ciples." Since these emolumentS, in his
case, would have amounted to about
$4,000 year in retirement pay, his
devotion to principle amounts to more
than lip service.
In fact, reading his statement to the
Senate Armed Services Committee, it
seems clear enough that the story of
this man is one of stern dedication to
his own concept of duty, honor and
principle. This is not to say that the
political indoctrination of his troops,
which resulted in his being formally
admonished and relieved of his COM
mand of the Twenty-fourth Division,
vas kept within permissible limits. On
!he contrary, it seems clear that he
everstepped the prescribed bounds. His
OffenSe, however, was one of overzeal-
BUSINESS, bordering, perhaps, on fariati-
ciSm, in alerting his command to the
menace Of communism. And in retro
spect, his punishment, as result of
which he says my career has been de-
stroyed in my usefulness to my eoun-
try" seems unduly harsh. 1t is difficult
to believe that the Pentagon could not
have found some better way of dealing
with this case.
That, however, is over and done
with. General Walker has elected to
fight it out as civilian, perhaps in
some political capacity, and the battle
will be waged as relentleSsly as were his
campaigns in armed combat. This much,
at least, is clear from his statement to
the Senate Committee. 1--WE are at war;"
he said. I'VE are infiltrated We are
losing that war every day" And he
added There can be no co-existence on
the battlefield"
1t is safe to say that the Com
munists, and those whom he regards as
dupes and fellow travellers, have not
heard the last word from Edwin A.
Walker.

Revolt Against Hoffo

James R. Hoffa, who seemingly
never tires of boasting with cocksure
certainty about his strength and popu-
larity among the rank-and- filters, must
be at least a trifle shaken by the
TeamSters Union revolt in Cincinnati.
There, in an election supervised by
the National Labor Relations Board,
union dairy drivers have voted 1854 to
IL to quit the Teamsters and join an
independent union. The impressive
factor in this action is not the decision
itself so much as the staggering margin
in favor of dumping Mr.. Hoffa. For
while the burly labor chief is not at all
unaccuStomed to seeing such lopSided
votes, it is infrequent indeed that they
take this direction, particularly when
the major issues at stake are the policies
and mandates which he has laid down.
We do not suppose that this will
be a Shattering blow to the Hoffa
empire. But surely it raises hopes that
members of the TeamSterS Union, when
they have the courage to do so, can
succeed where the courts and all the
resources Of the Federal Government
thus far have failed. And certainly, as
one leader of the rebellion put it, the
action of the dairy drivers isn't going
to hurt" the cause of three other locals
in Cincinnati which also will vote on
whether to part company with Mr.
Hoffa.

Too Many Noses

President Kennedy, who has had
his share of Setbacks, should encounter
no opposition (outSide the Government,
that Isl to his plea that Federal agencies
tighten up on spending, and hold the
number of Federal employees to the
absolute minimum"
There are those, perhaps, who will
say this move was somewhat belated
For during the first seven months of
the new administration, there were
added to the ranks of civilian employ
ment in executive agencies some 80, 1877
additional noses to count. And this
may suggest to cynicS that Mr.. Kennedy
has waited until the full roster of
anxious Democratic office-seekers was
taken care of before he pulled the string.
But not to us. Such turnover in
office-holders, usually with numerical
increases, has become the rule after an
election. And our hopes eternally soar
at the sound of such ringing phrases
as the President used in exhorting the
agencies under his direction to phase
out" deferrable projects, to do their
jobs with fewer people," to view the
appropriations they get "as a ceiling,
not mandate to spend" and to follow
most careful and frugal policy"
Secretary Ribicoff already has re-
ponded quickly to the Presidents request
by ordering a $102-million cut in 1862
spending by the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare. This is at least
a start. We hope that other agencies
follow his lead.

for regulation or control, despite repeated
pleas by leaders of the industry itself
The facts as to the exact status of
Family Savings are still in dispute. But
we wonder how many other Maryland
investors, who have placed their savings
in other associations left to their own
devices, may find themselves in trouble
"a second firm already has been put in
receivership.) Perhaps the most un-
fortunate result of this long neglect is
the doubt which has been cast on the
many legitimate and honest associations
in Maryland.
The larger questions now are how
adequate the new regulatory law will
prove to be, and how effectively it will
be administered. Certainly the legis-
lature, which defaulted on its respon-
SibilitieS for so long, should not now
assume that further Improvements can
not be made, including, perhaps, flat
requirement that such associations must
demonstrate that all deposits are amply
covered by insurance.

Mr.. Thant and the u. N.

After more than month of in
terminable talk and behind-the-scene
haggling, the United Nations has at last
put an end to the administrative crisis
caused by the sudden death of Secre-
tary General Dag Hammarskjold in an
African plane crash last September 18.
The solution has taken the form of
a unanimous vote electing U Thant of
Burma to fill the vacancy until April,
1868, the expiration date of Mr.. Ham
marskjold'S term.
Mr.. Thant, who served ably as chief
of the "neutralist" Burmese delegation
to the U. N, appears to be highly re-
Spected for his fair -mindednesS, his
vigor, his personality and his mental
talents by all groups in the world organ
ization, Communist and non -Commu-
mist alike. That is why it has been
possible to bring about his elevation,
without dissenting vote, to the post
of Acting Secretary General. Despite
having sought originally to burden him
with administrative assistants capable
of blocking his decisions and thus para
Lying his ability to act, the Kremlin
has finally gone along with the United
States in letting him be chosen on the
basis of an understanding that he will
name his own top aides and that they
will include proper number from the
Communist bloc, but that he still will
not be subject to veto by any of them.
Needless to say, all who want to see
the United Nations survive as an ef-
fective peace promoting agency must
prayerfully hope that Mr.. Thant will
succeed in his difficult new assignment.
At the same time, however, it would be
naive to suppose that Nikita Khrushchev
has abandoned his desire to place the
U. N under "troika" administration
a three-horSe team that could reduce
the organizations administrative ma
chinery to an absurdity. In that re-
spect, Mr.. Thant may experience some
hard going in what remains Of the
Hammarskjold term.

Penalty of Neglect

The most deplorable aspect of the
Family Savings and Home Loan Associ-
alton of Silver Spring case is the long
history of lack of interest which the
State of Maryland displayed in such
companies and, consequently, in the
economic welfare of thousands of
Maryland citizens.
Last June the State Legislature
finally enacted law to establish a
measure of regulation and control over
the huge savings and loan industry in
Maryland. But if the Family Savings
and Home Loan Association proves to
be insolvent, as State Attorney General
Finan has charged, this will be belated
reform indeed-one which will be of
little comfort to the $4,000 families who
invested their hard-earned dollars in
that firm.
The hearings held by the Senate
Banking Subcommittee in July, 1858,
in which Family Savings played such
major role, dealt largely land incon-
clusively) with a single limited subject
whether the associations claims to
having adequate insurance were valid.
The testimony nevertheless abounded
also with numerous other questions
which were raised about the Family
Savings operation and never followed
up One involved the inability Of
number Of legitimate agencies to obtain
a clear picture, or in some cases any
picture at all, of the financial structure
Of the association and of the Panama
based insurance company which re-
putedly was guaranteeing its deposits
at that time. There were ample sug-
gestions in the testimony Of interlocking
directorates. There was the strange
role of Representative James Roosevelt,
who was named board chairman Of the
association shortly before the hearings
were held And there also was the
matter of the associations suspension
in 1853 by the Federal Housing Admin
istration as an approved mortgage.
The red flags hoiSted by some Of
these questions we're not needed by any
one In authority because the Maryland
Legislature, virtually alone among the
States, chose to ignore its responsibility

Trading With Reds

A select committee of the
House recently opened what
was billed as an intensive
study of American trade with
Communist-bloc nations. The
initial hearings, held behind
closed doors. have served lit
tie purpose.
Continued secrecy about
who gets Commerce Depart
ment export licenses - and
why - will only serve to pro-
tect the bureaucratic inepti-
tude which has characterized
the administration of the Ex-
port Control Act for the past
dozen years.
The present administra-
ton, it is reported, hopes
Congress will not legislate eff
fective curbS. 1t would prefer,
instead. to deal with the
problem "administratively."
In other words, when pub
lie pressure builds up, Ii
censes become harder to get:
when the heat dies down, it's
, business as usual again.
This is no time for buSi-
ness as usual with any Iron
Curtain country. An outright
embargo rather than the
present selective limitations
should apply to trade with
Communist nations.
It's time we threw every
trade, cultural exchange and
every other type of agree
ment back in the faces of the
Red dictators. Let's have no
wailing that I'VE must keep
our promises" when they
never keep theirs.
The House com mitt te e
studying the Red trade issue
should move speedily toward
recommending a full and
compete embargo on all
American trade with all Red
nations, including Cuba.
We hear a lot today about
world opinion. Well, weaker
nations look to strong ones
for guidance. Our continued
ambivalence in dealing with
communism accounts for
much Of the weakness of the
Free World. Let's call a halt
to it right now!

The other night on a quiet
street in Hillcrest Heights,
Md. children were out trick
ing and treating. Several
teen-agers lay in wait and
jumped smaller boys, taking
their treats, and one had his
costume torn off. One of the
teen-agers carried a knife.
My 8-year old was one Of
those who was knocked to
the ground. He returned
home cryin G, bruised. and
frightened. l Immediately
went to the area where it
happened and some adults.
who were in the sire e t
watching out for their small
children, told me they had
seen this occurring and that
two brothers were a part of
the group of teen-agers. I
called on their mother and
explained what had occurred.
Her 16-year-old son. whom I
questioned first. had told me
that his brother had a knife.
When I mentioned this to
the mother, she said, "Oh, no.
I have it. l took it away
from him this afternoon.
Yet one of the adults in the
neighborhood had seen it in
his possession only an hour
earlier. She shrugged off the
incident by saying her sons
would do no such thing and
surely, her 13-year-old boy
was no bully - besides it
was two nights before Hal
loween and anything can
happen.
Shame on parents who not
only permit their teen-age
children to run loose to en-
gage in such practices but
condone their behavior by
not even looking into the
matter. and worse yet-lying
in their behalf.

stated in a recent decision
that psychologists are quail
ified to testify concerning
mental illness. The court
used as part of it's criteria
that the psychologists in
question had attended d
schools approved by the
American Psychological AS
sociation.
I think this is a dangerous
and insidious precedent. The
court has based the qualifi-
cations of the schools on ap-
proval by an organization
such as the American Psy-
Geological Association. This
organization has stated in
its official publication by its
executive secretary, in Vol. 5,
No. 8. p. 434: There is no
way Of determining how
many psychologists there are
until we can agree on what
a psychologist is" The Of
ficial publication also states
in Vol. 5, No. 10, that mem
bership in the American
Psychological Association car
ries no guarantee of compe-
tence. The same official pub
lication also states in Vol. 5,
No. IL g. psychologists are
not in a position to say what
makes a good clinical psy-
chologist."
1t is a ludicrously careless
thing for the courts to place
academically trained, non-
medical, non-hospital trained
individuals in a position to
pass on the sanity of other
citizens.

F. w. Barnes,
If the United Nations does
not take prompt and decisive
steps to expel the Soviet Un-

has been so often rumored,
that the U. N. is merely a de-
batting society, completely
useless in curbing aggression.
The utter disregard by the
Communists of the effect the
explosion of the monster
bomb will have on human
life in every nation of the
world labels them as the
most diabolical criminals that
ever existed.

Miller Co. View

The w. c. and A. N. Miller
Development Co. has with
drawn as a stockholder in
Tiber Island Corp. in consid-
Grafton of their partners in
terest and in order that the
prize winning design which
they helped create can be
added to the Urban Renewal
Development Program in
Southwest Washington with
out unnecessary delay. The
Miller Co. feels that this is
in the best interest of the
community.
1t is with sincere regret that
the Miller Co. has reached
this decision. For over 100
years three generations Of
the Miller family have con-
tributed substantially to the
development of this COM
munity including the South
west. Literally millions Of
bricks with the name Miller"
stamped thereon have been
removed from the Southwest
redevelopment area. Many
still remain as a monument
to the contributions which
the Miller family have made
in Southwest Washington.
During three generations,
the Millers and their COM
panies have established an
enviable reputation for sin
cerity, integrity and honesty
by living up to their commit
ments and the trust reposed
in them by others.
Considering the sources OF
our condemnation and the
baselessness of their charges.
which attempt to impugn our
honesty and our fulfillment
of any future promises or
commitments, this firm feels
that it is entirely too busy
concentrating its efforts on
producing something worth
while to publicly debate
with condemning organiza-
tions. who use part, II not
all, of their time to delay,
criticize, and condemn the
actions and productions OF
others, even sometimes their
local and Federal Govern
ment. while many Of the per-
sons so condemned contribute
to the funds necessary to the
very existence of such organi'
cations.
The Miller Co. feels it is to
be deplored that these groups,
operating as they do as civic
and charitable organizations,
some of which the Miller Co.
has supported. have seen fit
to challenge, on very ques-
tionable grounds, the integ-
rity of this firm and its many
contributions to the District
of Columbia. But the Miller
Co. stands on its record for
performance, and integrity.
