GERMANY WONDERS . . .
What Is Ike Going to Do?
By Walter Schwarzlose
MUNSTER, Germany — (Spe
cial to the Emerald)—Today’s
inauguration of U.S. President
Eisenhower will cause plenty of
speculation all over the world.
What is Eisenhower going to
do? Has one to expect a
stronger U.S. foreign policy?
Which will rank first: Europe
or Asia? And there are many
more questions. #
Carefully Observed
Since Eisenhower was electea
president, all his steps on his was
into politics have been carefully
observed in Germany. One was
wondering whether Ike could neu
tralize the “isolationists” influ
ence of Taft, whether he would
put more emphasis on the Asiatic
area, etc.
The choice of the members
of the cabinet showed that
Eisenhower obviously wanted
to lay the base for a broad pol
icy, not only on foreign affairs,
but in domestic also. Governor
McKay’s appointment as Sec
retary of the Interior and an
assignment of a Democrat
(Secretary of Labor Durkin)
gave evidence for the wide con
ception Eisenhower has in
mind.
Dulles Experienced
One knows John Foster Dulles
as an experienced politician who
has the reputation of being able
to merge contradictory interests;
and one noted favorably that Eis
enhower did not come back from
Korea with a sort of a question
able “quick military decision of a
general” but with the judgment
Ike Is In . . .
of a statesman who fully realizes
this complicated problem.
Nobody expects a complete
turn in American foreign pol
icy beginning today. Europe
will still play an important
part in U.S. foreign affairs, and
the new man in the White
House—known as a realistic,
That's the Breaks
“It’s taken me 27 dates to convince Intellects I wasn’t going with
her for her chemistry workbook, an’ now I find out she’s never taken
chemistry.”

energetic personality — might
strengthen the position of' the
United States, especially as to
the “style” of dealing with
Russia is concerned.
Strength Needed
As far as our experiences in
Germany go: Russia needs to be
met with a strong, powerful atti
tude. She becomes encouraged
when she notices weak positions
on the other side, and she be
comes careful when she is con

fronted with the resolute will of
the Western World.
In general it can be said that
Germany looks with some opti
mism at the change in Wash
ington, D.C. It is known that
Eisenhower respects Adenauer,
our chancellor, as a successful
statesman who has achieved
quite a lot for his defeated
country. And Adenauer, on the
other hand, regards the new
president as a vital personality
with political common sense
and great authority all over the
world.
Main Goal—Unification
Today ought to remind us also
of the fact that a main political
goal for our country—the re-uni
fication of Germany—is linked
tightly with the main political
problem in foreign affairs of the
United States: Her relation to
the Soviet Union.
Basic interests of the United
States and Germany meet at
this world problem number one.
That the American “Bell of
Liberty” is ringing in the tower
of the townhall of West Berlin
might symbolize this situation.
