Senator- Jenner's committee ferreting out
subversives is sending its counsel, Robert
Morris, to New York later this month to
launch an inquiry into the action of the Un
ited Nations administrative tribunal in rein
tattn fnui- .mnlnvvi and ordering comnen-
WMU .WM f J m
sation for seven others whose ouster was
deemed unwarranted but who refused rein
statement. It's a tidy sum, around $135,000,
which U.N. wiU have to pay as "severance
damages." Morris has been in New York be
fore probing into Americans employed at U.
N. This time it looks as though he would di
rect his inquiry at the administrative machin
ery of United Nations, Perhaps his object will
be to discredit not the few Red Americans
who have found employment at U.N. but the
whole organization itself.
Few people understand the difficulties un
der which United Nations has functioned in
New York during this open season on Reds.
It is an international body employing citizens
from various member nations, some of which
a . i T . J- 1 A T M 1
are tommunui. uimea jNauons usen nas no
secrets none of its documents are classified
as confidential. The United States supplies it
with no secret information; and the Ameri
cans who are employed there have no access
to secret information of any government. And
so far no case has been reported where any
American employed at United Nations has
engaged in any activity subversive of our own
government.
The former secretary general, Trygve Lie,
took extreme measures to satisfy U.S. tests on
loyalty of Americans employed at U.N. When
a bead was drawn on any suspect he did his
best to get rid of that person. A committee of
International lawyers gave him an opinion to
back him up, though its legal soundness was
seriously in doubt in view of the terms of the
Charter and of regulations covering employ
ment. Only a few dozen Americans were
dropped from the U.N. staff in this purge, out
of several thousand employed. Twenty-one
of these appealed to the administrative tribu
nal. In nine cases the discharge was approv
ed; one case was remanded for study; eleven
dismissals were found unjustifiable.
The issue hinges on the fact that these
eleven took refuge under the fifth amend
ment and refused to testify before a U. S.
body whether they were Communists or not.
That certainly is offensive to loyal Ameri
cans: but it is hard to see how an interna
tional body is warranted in firing nationals
of member states who used a provision from
the bill of rights in that country's constitu
tion to avoid testifying.
Theie is a way to prevent employment of
American Communists at U.N. which would
avoid all this contention. Congress could sim
ply pass a law requiring American employes
at U.N. to have passports, and then limit is
suance of passports to non-Communists. Em
ployes' of U.N. from other countries obtain
passports(unlesa they are refugees), and we
can be surejthat Communist countries permit
only proven Communists to leave to take job
at U.N, . This offers a legal formula which
would not embarrass U.N. officials.
We feel thai 'the risk at U.N. from this
source has been greatly exaggerated and arc
fearful that a 'major objective is not to get
American Communists out of U.N. so much
as to get rid of ; United Nations. The para
mount consideration is the internal and ex
ternal, security of the United States, That
must be protected. And that can be done
without, succumbing to fear, and without an
tagonizing , representatives of ' other nations
who think Americans have gone hysterical in
their Red-hunts.
Editorial Comment
WHEN MAJOR WAINWRIGHT WAS
THE UEAU IDEAL
Thirty-six years have passed since the early
summer of 1917, when thousands of young men
were assembled in make-shift training camps to
be transformed (in "90 days) into "officers and
gentlemen." They were a shaggy lot. The reg
ular Army, for some unfathomable reason, gave
them reject clothing ana equipment which had
lain in storehouses since the war with Spain.
They were forbidden to have any of it fitted
or tailored as was customary for ordinary sol
diers. But "for the good of their souls" they
were hauled out twice daily for blistering in
spections 'and endless admonitions and punish
ments for "appearance."
At the Plattsburg Camp, there appeared one
day, a miraculous soldier Major Jonathan Wain
wright lately graduated from the Army's Mount
ed Service School at Fort Riley. The scarecrows
were assembled under bawling First Sergeants,
marched smartly to a distant corral full pf crow
bait horses, lined up and called to a sharp at
tention and told:
"This is Major Wainwright the best
horseman in the Army. You'se guys will
pay attention and do whatever he says and
ferkrisake try to look and act like soldiers."
The Major mounted on a superb steed moved
forward, dismounted, gave the reins to an order
ly, and took over quietly. He permitted the
scarecrows to find seats under a tree and he
spent the first hour with them just talking
about horses and men and their proper rela
tionships. Then he gave a little demonstration of
horsemanship, not with his own mount, but a
wall-eyed, Roman-nosed plug, drawn at random
from the picketline.
In our time we have never seen Wainwright's
equal as a horseman except possibly Wayne L.
Morse. There wasn't anything he couldn't do with
an animaL And he had a way with men; the 180
scarecrows became his instant disciples.
Wainwright somehow represented all that was
best in the professional soldier. Plattsburg had
many handsome and beautifully caparisoned of
ficers, but most of them strutted and flaunted.
There was none of that in Wainwright He led
by example, whether he was demonstrating how
to clean and groom, or how to gait and school
an animal.
(In retrospect it' is amusing to remember
how 180 scarecrows tried to adjust their bat
tered hats and frayed leggings and to stand
and walk and sit a horse like Wainwright)
That was the man who became General Wain
wright, .the "hero of Corregidor." It was diffi
cult to believe that the emaciated old man whd
came back from the great war, deaf from the roar
of the guns, enfeebled by his long imprison
ment was the same who had been the "beau
ideal" of the Plattsburg hopefuls. But it was
easy to understand the loyalty he commanded
from the thousands of soldiers who served with
him on "The Rock," in the defeat which gained
the time needed for victory.
Wainwright was one of those "old Army sol
diers" around whom this unmilitary nation was
able to build a great fighting power. The na
tion's debt to them may never be fully ap
preciated. Eugene Register-Guard.

wrZZ'ix States into a

&M?z?i:z&z:Mim a commitment.
I He flatly de
clared that this country would
go to war with Communist
China, if the Chinese Commu
nists intervened in the Korean
manner in the current fighting
- in Indo- China.
"Big Wars,"
said Dulles,
"usually come
about by mis
take, not by de
sign ... It is
. . . probable
that the Korean
war would not
have occurred
if the aggres
sor had known
what the Unit-
L Stewart Alm ed States would

the risk that as in Korea, Red
China might send its own army
into Indo-China. The Chinese
Communist regime should real

sion could not occur without
grave consequences which might
UV W fcVllllllvi. m ii in.
I say this soberly in the in
terest of peace and In the hope
of preventing another aggres- .
sor miscalculation."
Maybe so little attention was
paid -to this remarkable pro
nouncement because of the con
ventional diplomatic language.
What Dulles said must have
been very clearly understood
' in Peking and Moscow. It - was
officially explained to Paris as
v meaning that .the Eisenhower
administration meant, to fight -:-
Communist China under the
conditions named by Dulles. Bur
Dulles' words were not . the
plain words of American poli
tics, and so almost nobody in
this country paid serious atten
tion to them, greatly, it must
be added, to the surprise of
Dulles who had expected his
statement to provoke a storm
of comment and controversy.
This Dulles statement, which
was so much more signlficaat
than his much-discussed press
conference, was only made, of
course, after the most careful
preparatory work. The policy
annennced by Dulles had been
talked eat in detail and heart
ily endorsed by the National
Security Council. And although
he had the President's and the
Security Council's backing,
Dulles thought the matter so
Important that he drafted his
Leg a speech with his owa
hand.
The reasons for the state
ment were partly local and
partly "general In brief, the
local situation in Indo-China is
now entering an extremely crit
ical phase. On the one hand, the
Korean truce has been the. sig
nal for a rather substantial re
inforcement of the Chinese
Communist armies centered on
Hanning, just above the Indo
Chinese border. The French
have always feared that if they
made too much progress against
the Indo-Chinese Communists,
the Chinese would intervene to
aid their brethren of the Viet
Minh: This French fear is now
more acute than ever.
On the other band, the new
commander in lode-China, the
tough General .Navarre, has
beem asking support in Paris
for the kind of plan Washing
ton has always hoped for a
really aggressive campaign to
drive back and destroy the Viet
. Mian army and guerrillas.
French Premier Laalel has
finally approved the Navarre
plan, but on two conditions
-
The first condition was the
commitment made by Dulles
before the American Legion.
Th second was a promise of
substantial special aid from this
country perhaps as much as
$400,000,000 to pay for creat
ing Indo-Chinese anti-Communist
forces on the scale of the
South Korean army so success
fully organized by this country.
Navarre must have these native
forces and probably some extra
French forces in order to carry
out -his plan.
The Indo-Chinese Commu
nists, who are benefitting by
the long delay in approving the
Navarre plan, are already going
over to She offensive, even be
fore the end of the rains opens
the customary fighting season
in Indo-China. Navarre is or
ganlzing his own offensive as
rapidly as possible. In these
circumstances, with the Chinese
Communists reinforcing at Nan
ning, and many French politi
cal leaders grumbling that the
whole Indo-Chinese venture
ought to bo abandoned, critical
is a rather mild word for the
new phase. .

Some Major Causes of Anemia
In seeking a cause of an ane
mic condition, the perennial
scapegoat has long been thought
to be a diet inadequate in pro
per vitamins and minerals.'
Howewer, anemia can also be
caused by a disturbance in the
absorption by the stomach and
intestines of these vital miner
als and vitamins that are neces
sary for blood formation. 1
The food parts most necessary
for the production of red blood
cells and hemoglobin, which are
the pigments in the blood cells
necessary to carry the oxygen,
are iron, folic acid. Vitamin B,
and ascorbic acid or Vitamin C
Certain essential protein sub
stances known as amino adds
are also absolutely necessary
for blood formation.
Many times the diet can con
tain sufficient amounts of these
substances, but the body is un
able to utilize them properly
and thus anemia occurs.
Lack of proper absorption of
iron is probably the most im
portant factor in the cause of
most anemias. The stomach
gives off hydrochloric acid
which is necessary for the pro
per absorption of iron. There

the Dulles statement must be
to render Chinese Communist
intervention in Indo-China
much less likely. Peking has re
iterated its stand that th Chi-
nese will never cease to sup
port their brethren of th Viet
Minh. The Indo-Chinese Com
munists are being importantly
and increasingly aided with,
arms and in other ways already. -But
the betting is pretty heavy
that Peking will not wish to
take the further step of open
intervention, which would lead
in turn to American action un
der the Dulles doctrine.
More generally, th Dulles
statement is extremely signifi
cant precisely because It does
foreshadow a doctrine of sorts
that has now been evolved by
th President the Secretary of
State, and other admiaistratlea
leaders like the new Chairman
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff,
Admiral Arthur Radford.
The meaning of the doctrine
is indicated by the Dulles re
mark about big wars generally
starting by mistake. Th new
administration's aim is to make
it perfectly clear to both Pe- '
king and Moscow that we shall
fight and fight moreover with
out artificial limits if any
more borders are aggressively
crossed. In the nervous world,
this stand may not be popular
everywhere. But it is likely, to
be healthy in its results,

Editor's Notes We acknowl
edge receipt of numerous let
ters commending The States
man for its editorial stand in
opposition to the sale of beer at
the State fair. Since the ap
proval of such sale was with
drawn after the intervention of
Gov. Paul Patterson the publica
tion of the letters is unneces
sary. They were nevertheless
appreciated and proved there
was a deep sentiment favoring
the past policy of excluding sale
of alcoholic beverages at the
Stat Fair.
stomach operations in which
part of the stomach has been
removed may have a lack of
"acid, and this may cause them
to suffer from an anemia due to
an iron deficiency.
Another major cause of iron
deficiency anemia is repeated
blood loss which may not give
very great symptoms. This may
be caused by such things as
polyps, tumors, or certain in
ternal herniak which cause a
minimal amount of bleeding
that is not readily detectable.
A Vitamin B deficiency may
occur when a person suffers
from chronic intestinal disor
ders giving diarrhea.
Thus, w can see that al
though adequate amounts of vi
tamins and minerals may be
consumed, an anemia can occur
due to a disturbance of the
body which does not allow the
minerals and vitamins to be ab
sorbed properly. The giving of
iron and Vitamin B, and folic
acid may be of help in treating
the anemia that is due to these
causes. However, the underlying
cause should be sought out and
treated also.
QUESTION AND ANSWER
H. D.: My child has a persist
ent case of ringworm of the
scalp that has failed to improve.
He is now receiving X-ray
He is now receieving X-ray
treatments for it Can these
harm him?
Answer: When X-ray treat
ments are given to the scalp for
ringworm, the hair sometimes
falls out However, new hair
grows in with the infection
gone. It is well to remember,
however, that X-ray treatments
may cause premature graying of
the hair in children who have a
history of graying in th fam
ily.
