U. S. Tactic in Consul Ouster Gives
Russia Neat Face-Saving 'Out'
By DEwrrr Mackenzie
AP Foreign Affairs Analyst
That's a neat bit of diplomatic repartee by the American State
Department ,ln answer to Moscow's vitriolic charges In the Kosen
kina case.
Washington In effect gives the
lie to the Russian charge that
Mrs. Kasenkina and two other
teachers attached to the Soviet
Consulate School In New York
were "kidnaped" with connivance
of American officials. With equal
force the note denounced Red
Consul General Jacob M. Loma
kin as persona no grata and asks
that he be recalled. All that
seems eminently satisfactory and
we shall be completely happy
when Mrs. Kasenkina recovers
from the grave Injuries she suf
fered when she leaped from
third-story window of the consu
late, where she says she was
imprisoned.
However, it strikes me that the
most Important aspect of the ex
change between Washington and
Moscow lies In the U. S. State
Department's technique In han
dling this delicate and poten
tially dangerous situation. While
giving the Soviet a blunt, two-
fisted reply, the State Depart
ment adroitly provides a face
saving device for the Kremlin If
the latter desires to use It.
The United States note says
that the Russian charges, Includ
ing some by Soviet Foreign Min
ister Molotov himself, "have been
based upon misinformation."
Moreover, Washington holds
Lomakln responsible for this In
formation. He la accused of abuse
of his position and a "gross vio
lation" of proper conduct of for
eign officials.
How Will Molotov Act?
It's easy to see that this would
give Moscow a neat face-saving
"out" if Molotov should choose
to take it. The blame rests on
Lomakln, who has only himself
to thank In view of the crude and
muddled methods he employed In
handling the case.
Of course, it remains to be
seen whether Molotov will take
advantage of this "out." How
ever, even If he welcomes Loma
kln back to Moscow with a brass
band, I should hate like sin to

be in the consul general's shoes.
Very uncomfortable things hap
pen to servants who embarrass
the Soviet government.
In any event, the employment
of this technique by the State
Department gives to wonder
whether a new tactic Is being
developed In dealing with Mos
cow. This column recently called
attention to the fact that a "face
saving" Is a highly important
item with the Russians. They are
a proud people and find It diffi
cult to depart from a strongly
held position without a logical
excuse. Hitler's regime discov
ered this characteristic in nego
tiations with Moscow before the
war and traded on It with great
success.
Berlin flew Ne. 1 Problem
Well, now, where does this
take us? Perhaps it takes us
long way, because there are signs
that the current negotiations
among the Big Four in Moscow
hinge In large degree on this
same Issue. Russia has taken
firm and spectacularly advertised
nana in tne Battle of Berlin.
Disposition of the whole German
case cannot be undertaken until
the Berlin row Is settled. And the
Berlin Imbroglio can't be Ironed
out unless Russia can find a
graceful wav to retreat.
It's my guess and it is a guess
that the present negotiations
are concerned mainly with this
point, perhaps not officially but
taciiiy.

Lomakln Doesn't Comment

Lomakln had claimed he "res
cued" Mrs. Kasenkina from an
anti-communist farm retreat,
operated by Countess Alexandra
Tolstoy.
After the teacher's leap from
the Consulate window, however,
police quoted her as saying she
had been held a prisoner.
Consulate officials, however,
claimed she was trying to com
mit suicide and was under great
nervous tension because of the
actions of the White Russian
anti-communists and American
officials.
Meanwhile, Dr. Grant Pen
noyer, hospital resident physician,
said Mrs. Kasenkina, who suffer
ed multiple fractures and Intern
al injuries In her plunge, is "im
proving right along."

Bear Comes Down,
Woman Climbs
Tree, Sits 2i Hrs.
NESPELEM. Wash, Aug. 21
(.T) When asked to go bear-hunting,
Mrs. Laura McGinnls directs
a Took of cold fury upon the pe
titioner and suggests that he go
climb a tree as she did.
Deputy V. S. Marshal Elwvn
Daniel, clutching his sides, told
the story yesterday of how this
aversion was acquired.
Mrs. McGinnls and her young
grandson left their home on the
Colville Indian Reservation to go
hunting.
Mrs. Mac saw a big black bear
In a big tree.
She shot.
, Down the big tree care the big
bear.
Up a little tree went the hunt
er. It was too small for the bear
to climb but he posted a watch
beneath.
She sat there for two-and-a-half
hours while the bruin walked
around below, grumbling and
muttering.
All this time, her grandson
waited, unknowing, in the car.
Finally, Mrs. Mac's hi band
came looking for her. She shout
ed her story and he scooted away
and came back with a posse. The
bear departed.
Mrs. MacGinnls came slowly
down the tree, stiff, sore, shaking
and scared.
And that Is why you should
never ask Mrs. MacGlnnls to go
bear-hunting.

as amended by Chapter 50, Ore
gon Laws, 19415.
Although statutory nroviaions
do not specifically call for a dead

plied with If names of city can
didates are to be included on the

bama senator said.
He added that he believed a
change such as suggested by
Lodge "would have a good effect
in the South."
"It would encourage both par
ties to campaign In the South,
because If the Republicans could
cut into the electoral vote there
which they can't do now the
Democrats would be campaign
ing to keep them from it."
But any such change must run
the gauntlet of two-thirds approv
al by both Houses of Congress
and approval by three-fourths
of the State Legislatures.

Subpoena Issued
For Ex-Head Of
Red Underground
WASHINGTON,, Aug. 21 (OP))
The House Un-American Activ
ities Committee today drew up a
subpoena for J. Peters, described
in testimony as a one-time head
of the Communist underground
in this country.
But there was no assurance
that the mysterious, much-sought
witness would talk even if com
mittee agents find him and If he
Is promised Immunity from de
portation which immigration
authorities are threatening him
with.
Peters was arrested last October
and released under $5,000 bond
to await a decision on whether
he should be deported as a mem
ber of an organization advocat
ing forcible overthrow of the
government.
Some time In the next ten days
the Committee hopes to be able
to subpoena Peters during the
deportation hearing promised by
Watson Miller, commissioner of
immigration.
Whittaker Chambers a self
avowed former Communist and
now a Time magazine senior
editor, has named Peters as the
man who headed the Communist
underground movement In this
country prior to 1937.
Through questioning of Peters
the committee hopes to verify
some of the testimony It has re
ceived from Chambers Implicat
ing many former Federal officials.
