In certain quarters Casually de-
scribed as liberal Democratic) on Capitol
Hill, the "open season" on the Federal
Reserve Board and Chairman William
McChesney Martin never really ends.
But there was bigger than usual
shoot" this week when the Joint Eco
nomic Committee filed the cumber-
somely titled Report on the January
1868 Economic Report of the President,
with Minority and other Views"
The part dealing with the Federal
Reserve and presumably Just about
everybody connected with it was au-
thored by the majority, not the minority,
Of the committee, and it was pretty
Scathing stuff It blamed "the Fed" for
almost every thing except the weather,
and 1t lectured, scolded and threatened.
At one point, 1t accused the Reserve
authorities Of having "a stubborn pro-
pensity" and at another Of having "hazy
and unclear concepts Of what they are
trying to do" It's greatest indignation
was directed at Federal Reserve report
ing to Congress and to the public, and
in very black type the committee ma
jority wrote Overwhelmingly that the
agency must either be persuaded or
compelled by law" to do better. In the
majority view, at least, the Federal
Reserve sis a direct servant of the
Congress" and its actions and its reasons
for taking them should be explained
explicitly and clearly instead Of in q
fashion VIGOROUSLY inadequate, unin-
formative and confusing"
The adjectival eloquence Of this
denunciation of "the Fed" and the people
who run 1t prompted q re-reading Of
President Kennedy's press conference
announcement, on February 7, that he
was pleased to announce" his intent
to reappoint Mr.. Martin as chairman
and c. Candy Balderston as vice chair
man Of the board. After commenting
on Mr.. Martins effective cooperation
In the administrations economic policy
making and expressing confidence In a
constructive working relationship" In
the years ahead, the President added:
As you know, the Federal Reserve System
is fully independent agency OF the United
States Government, but II is essential that
there exist q relationship Of mutual confidence
and cooperation between the Federal Re-
serve, the economic agencies Of the admins
tration. including especially the Secretary OF
the Treasury, and the President. Mr.. Martin
has my full confidence, and look forward
10 continuing TO work with him and his
colleagues on the board In the interests Of Q
strong United States economy.
In our opinion, Mr.. Kennedy's
confidence is well placed and much more
In keeping with the facts than the bad
tempered complaints OF his party col
leagues on the Joint Economic Com
mittee.

Mr.. Acheson's Counsel

Dean Acheson, In his address at the
University Of California, has presented
perhaps the most incisive analysis to
date Of the policies Of President Charles
de Gaulle. The sum of It is this: Politi-
cally, economically and militarily, the
tall man Of France is altogether wrong
Thus the former Secretary OF State,
although hailing the General as one of
the great leaders Of our time, has made
clear that he can find nothing, either
theoretical or practical, that justifies
the Generals decision to keep Britain
out Of the Common Market, build an
independent nuclear force, and organize
a new Europe under French hegemony
"a Europe holding itself aloof from
America. AS Mr.. Acheson sees 1t, this
is a suicidal doctrine that simply can
not and will not work In the world Of
today or tomorrow
Actually President de Gaulle, in Mr..
Acheson's judgment, is following a
course that Is wholly at variance" not
only with hard international realities,
but also with Frances treaty obligations
as a member Of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization. Moreover, apart
from It's inter-allied political aspects, 1t
Is a course that Mr.. Acheson regards as
unrealistic and unavoidable in terms Of
international trade. Accordingly, he
feels sure that the five other members
OF the Common Market-Italy, West
Germany and the Benelux countries
will reject 1t. At any rate, they have
every reason to do so, for the General is
economically in the wild blue yonder
when he argues that the markets six
members can prosper by buying, selling
and consuming solely within the frame
work Of their own complex, their own
organizational structure, their own walls
of exclusively. To put 1t mildly, this is a
dream without substance.
As for the Gaullist military views,
Mr.. Acheson makes 1t abundantly clear
that the French atomic deterrent can
never amount TO much vis-a-vis the
Soviets and that the security and
survival Of free Europe depend primarily
and overwhelmingly on American power.
In these circumstances, It Is Mr. Ache
sons counsel that the United States,
always leaving the door open to Frances
participation and cooperation, should
move forward with the other members
of NATO and the Common Market In
building mutual defensive strength
conventional and nuclear) and In pro-
noting free flow Of trade between the
great markets of Europe and America.
II we and the bulk Of our allies do
this, says Mr.. Acheson, I'VE can shape
the sort Of inevitability which General
de Gaulle will accept" The full text Of
the former Secretary's address (greatly
oversimplified here) merits careful
reading by all our friends in the Atlantic
Community, including particularly the

Insurance Surgery

Everyone who has had TO pay
surgical bill will commend the frankness
wlthswhich DR.. Loyal Davis Of Chicago,
from his position as president Of the
American College of Surgeons, spoke out
against overcharges predicated on pa
tents insurance policies.
DR.. Davis held that many" sur
geons had abandoned the traditional
measuring stick-the patients ability
to pay-and instead geared their fees
to insurance payments. He put 1t this
way: "Just because ], as a doctor, know
that one of my patients is getting 5000
from his insurance company, this doesn't
mean should charge him that much
for an operation that's worth only $780,"
Or. Davis was equally outspoken
against the practice Of an insurance
company intervening between surgeon
and patient to pay the fee direct. when
a man pays premiums" he said, "he
should receive stated amount Of money

Demeoninq Ourselves

lr0nce again the United States has
offered concessions" in quest of q
nuclear test ban, and once again the
Russians have rebuffed US.
isTo our way of thinking, this raises
two questions. The President last week
said-we would not accept a test ban
= which did not give us every assurance
that we could detect a series Of tests
underground II" 1t is good to have
this pledge on the record. However, re-
cenftestimony before the Senate House
AtoHtic Energy Committee strongly in
dicstes that the Russians, under our
proposals, could cheat in the area Of
small underground explosions, and that
such tests could lead to significant
advances in Soviet weaponry. II this
is nofrect, the security of the United
States is being put In jeopardy by these
so-ealled concessions at Geneva.
aecondly, there is the matter Of
nati0nal self-respect. Why should the
United States be constantly going, hat
inlland, to the Russians on this matter,
onlyto be repeatedly rebuffed2 There
Isl ct course, the matter Of the record,
anqitis desirable that We should make
cleafour readiness to stop testing under
suitable safeguards. But nothing can
be added to the record in this respect
Except further proof Of our seemingly
endless capacity for Self-humiliation
We think the time has come to put
a stop to, this business; to bring our
people home from Geneva, and to tell
the Russians that the next move is
tHeis that there viii be no more test
ban negotiations as far as we are
Concerned unless and until they are
ready to talk seriously and make some
CONCESSIONS Of their own.
