He Was Counted

There may have been more to it
than met the eye. But in any appraisal,
Senator DirkSen'S speech in the United
Nations aid debate was both a COM
mendable and remarkable perform
ance.
The Republican Minority Leader
took his stand in opposing a limiting
amendment offered by Senator Hicken-
looper, chairman of the Senate Repub-
lican Policy Committee. Senator Hick-
enlooper wanted to restrict the aid au-
thorization to three-year loan at an
interest rate equal to the cost to the
Treasury. Senator Dirksen insisted on a
more liberal approach - one giving
greater discretion to the Democratic
President.
The Illinois Senator, who is up for
reelection this year, told the Senate
that there are people at home who do
not like my attitude" But, he went
on, '..it doesn't make any difference what
the mail from back home says Il will not
charge my conscience with an act or
deed which would contribute to the
laundering of the United Nations be-
cause do not know how I would then
be able to expiate that sin of commits
sion to my grandchildren. .. It is up to
us to stand up and be counted"
The Senators then proceeded to do
just that. The Hickenlooper amendment
was beaten, 72 to 20, and the Dirksen
speech, whatever may have been all the
considerations underlying it, helped to
carry the day.

ing, not what they could be expected
to do.
This bit Of not-So-ancient history
was recalled upon reading in the papers
the other day that Mr. McElroy has been
vindicated. Discussing the missing mis-
Sile gap in testimony before a congress
Sional committee, General Frederick C.
Smith, Air Force vice chief of staff, said
the current change in relative ICBM
estimates does not mean that Russia
was incapable of producing more mis-
SileS. They had the capacity, General
Smith said, but they did not do what
our intelligence people thought they
would do. We trust that Mr.. McElroy
duly noted this little item.

Mary, Mary, Quite Etc.

Mary EduSei, wife of Ghana'S Minis
ter of Industry, is another in the end
less generation of women whose
husbands have failed to understand
them.
~. Mary is a woman who wanted
gold bed. She was lucky enough to find
one and sensible enough to buy it. Nat
urally, she did not quibble about the
price, which happened to be $8,400. She
had perfectly sound reason for want
ing gold bed. She had always wanted
one because no one else ever had one.
She is perfectly happy with her pur-
chase, when, enter the obtuSe killjoy,
namely her husband, with the prepoS-
ferrous suggestion that she send the bed
back. Why? Mary must have about died
laughing when she heard his variation
on the what will the neighbors-
think?" routine. The gold bed, he said,
was violation of the socialist principles
of Ghana.
Mary Edusei'S response to this non
sense was in class with Queen Eliza
beth'S declaration to the troops on the
eve of the Armada: II am but a weak
woman, but have the heart and stom-
ach Of King of England"
Said Mary to her husband, through
the Associated Press: "No one can force
Mary to do what she not want to do.
You can take horse to water. Mary no
horse"
Again Mary'S grasp Of the realities,
her ,irrefutable logic, her refusal to be
detected from her course by this maun-
dering of mere male, cannot fail to
impress the bystander in this clash of
wills.
Mary knows perfectly well that If
she returns the bed and gets the money
back her husband will only fritter 1t
away in the pursuit of power or fame or
some other will-o'-the-w that men
are always chasing.
Like all Of her sex, Mary does not
care for distractions. Socialism and
public opinion are not like gold bed.
They don't gleam and cause a commo-
ton and add to the Joy of life in any
tangible way.
Just because man can't see this
is no reason to humor him and not buy
a gold bed-eSpecially when you want
a gold bed as badly as Mary does. And
she wants gold bed because she wants
gold bed, because. -.

The Not-So-Free Outdoors

AS President Kennedy has pointed
out In message to Congress on recrea-
ton, 1t has been traditional to think of
the great outdoors" as free for those
who wish to enjoy its attractions.
Actually, however, outdoor recreation in
Federal or State parks and waters is
available only because of special taxes
and fees which have made it possible to
purchase and maintain the areas for
public use. So no precedent would be
set If Congress approved the Presidents
plan for acquiring and developing ad-
ditional recreational areas under self
hquidating financing plan calling for
new revenues from those who would
benefit from the program.
Existing parks and reservations are
financed with the aid of admission fees.
fishing and hunting stamps and licenses.
Federal excise taxes on fishing and
hunting equipment and similar means.
The administration now has proposed,
in addition, an annual tax of SIS on
boats of IA to 16 feet in length, plus
81 for each additional foot; keeping, in
stead of refunding, the Federal two
centS-a-gallon tax on gasoline used in
motorboats; and fees for use of certain
land and water recreational facilities
owned by the Government.
1t was estimated that up to $1OO
million a year could be obtained from
these new sources for purchase and up
keep of parkland, forests and water
areas suitable for public recreation. The
President suggested an initial appropria-
ton of $500 million to start the program
rolling-the fund to be repaid from rec
reational revenues. In this era of shrink
ing and disappearing natural resources,
the Self-sustaining outdoor recreation
program outlined in the Presidents mes
sage to Congress should have special
appeal.

we'll end up as poor judg-
ment on our part.
1t is agreed the Red
Chinese have not manifested
a particular fondness for the
United States, but why pour
salt on an open wound? What
better way is there of reach
ing the 700 million Red
Chinese than through their
stomachs?
Sooner or later we will have
to deal with a China that pos

three-year period of trade

mutual understanding that
would greatly benefit all.

Dark Deeds

For weeks now, District
officials, Congressman, and
civic groups have expressed
concern about the upsurge in
adult and juvenile street
crimes in the Nations Cap
ital. Several suggestions have
been made toward the end
Of alleviating this crime wave
and further protecting the
public-more police, more
legislation, more professional
youth workers, etc. Obvious
ly these are good proposals;
however, it may be possible
we are overlooking one very
practical aspect.
It seems to me that the
poor lighting in our streets
is just an open invitation to
yoking. purse-snatching and
rape. District officials should
consider putting brighter and
more modern street lights on
our now darkly Lit side streets
and alleyways. Why not
brighten UP our neighbor-
hoods at night? Let us see
who Is walking behind usl

100 Years Aao

Shiloh, a blood-bath Of q
battle that paled all else that
had gone before, brought to
grips 10000 troops about
equally divided in blue and
gray on April 6 and z, 1862.
Most of the combatants were
getting their first taste Of
war, and their generals also
had much to learn. Even the
likes Of Grant and Sherman
discovered they were still
novices at their profession.
It was a costly lesson, what
with the Union Army report
ing some 10000 killed,
wounded or missing, and the
Confederates suffering to
only a slightly lesser extent.
The South also lost one Of
its ablest generals, Albert
Sidney Johnston, who fought
on after a rifle ball severed
a leg artery, not knowing
apparently that his life was
fast flowing away. Many OBJ
servers hold that the Confed-
crates failed to win a sweep
ing victory because Johnston
was cut down. The Federals
were caught mapping, when
the Confederates marched
the 20 miles from Corinth to
Shiloh practically undetected
and unheeded. Sherman
wrote Grant the day before
the battle: II do not appre-
hend anything like an at
tack upon our position"
Grant, too, seemed sure there
would be no fight at or near
Pittsburg Landing. saying:
1--WE will have to go to CO.
rinth, where the rebels are
fortified" Now a pleasant
park, Shiloh then was heavily
wooded, with dense under
brush, and crisscroSsed with
ravines and dirt roads. Troop
control was difficult under
such conditions. Both armies
were too new at war to dig
trenches or scoop out shelter
holes; thus the carnage at
Hornets Nest" and Bloody
Pond" The first days fight
ing, done on a sparkling
bright Sunday. favored the
South. The North prevailed
the next day, a dark, stormy
one, that saw fresh Federal
reinforcements driving the
weary, bleeding gray legions
back to Corinth in the rain.
Premature claims of a Union
victory were made in official
communiques printed in The
Star of April 8. 1862. One
from Grants staff said of the

Prophet INDICATED

A few years ago Neil McElroy, then
Secretary of Defense, was an unhonored
prophet. In private conversations, he
was defending the adequacy of this
country's ICBM program on the basis,
not Of what the Russians might be ca
pahle of doing, but on what they might
reasonably be expected to produce in
terms of Soviet ICBMs. AS word of this
got around, he was severely criticized by
those who thought we should match
what the Russians were capable of do

Contemporary Art
Nell Seymour.

Your expert art critic,
Frank Getlein, wrote an ex-
ceptionally fine review April
l Of the American Painting,
1852" exhibition at the Vir-
ginia Museum of Fine Arts
IN Richmond. Your news
paper is to be congratulated
for having a critic who really
understands art, writes very
effectively, and who is not
biased in his attitude toward
repreSentational and non
representational art.
He very accurately defined
the failings of many recent
contemporary shows, in COM
pairing their limited contents
with the overall high quality
and variety of paintings
found in the Richmond ex-
hibition, when he stated:
"The trouble with most
exhibitions of contemporary
American art of the past
dozen or so years has been
that the people choosing the
paintings felt a fierce COM
pulsion to stress the word
contemporary and mistress
the word art in their
choices. Thus, anything that
was actually painted in the
way that word was under
stood from Giotto to Picasso
was automatically ruled out.
Ruled in was every other
conceivable method Of get
ting more or less colored sub
stance onto a more or less
flat surface"
Mr.. Getlein Is not condemn
ing contemporary art but
he is criticizing the tendency
OF museums to choose jurors
who select a preponderance
OF the "far out" material for
shows which should contain
various styles of contempo-
rary art. For the choice Of
the high quality and the fine
variety Of the paintings in
the Richmond show, a single
juror, Bartlett H. Hayes, jr.,
director Of the Addison Gal
lery Of American Art at
Phillips Academy, Andover,
Mass, is to be congratulated;
and also Leslie Cheek, direc-
tor Of the Virginia Museum
OF Fine Arts. for having Sc
lected Mr.. Hayes.
