ORDER MERITS SUPPORT
The Dalles Chronicle
Nothing Mr. Eisenhower or Secretary of State Dulles
or anybody else has said indicates this country has any
Intention of supporting a big attack on Red China. We
are already equipping Chiang's armies, and at the most
we might step up this material aid in hope of making
Nationalist raids more effective. But, again, that doesn't
commit us to rescue the users of the equipment if they
get in trouble.
The kind of raids the President's recent order allows
could be valuable. They might be severing of rail links
over which pass Chinese supplies to the Korean front
They might compel the Reds to divert considerable
strength from Korea, thus easing pressure on UN forces.
Even if the diversion is minor, it is probably worth
the ramble. Under the old plan, the Reds found the
U. S. Seventh fleet in effect guaranteeing their mainland

PLAYING INJO MORSE'S HANDS
No paper in Oregon has as little use for Senator
Wayne Morse as the Capital Journal which has always
opposed his nominations and elections. Many times since
he became an apostate to the party, and deserted th
GOP that elected him, in spite of the fact that he had
advocated General Elsenhower for the presidency and
as delegate to the GOP national convention helped nomi
nate him, only to betray and denounce Iks in the cam
paign we have expressed contempt for his course. We
have frequently suggested Morse's resignation from the
senate for the benefit of both party and of Oregon.
However the bill introduced by 8 senators and 25
representatives, all republican die-hards, which would
prevent Morse from running for reelection as an, inde
pendent in 1956 should be defeated. It Is purely a spite
bill and will have a boomerang effect by enabling him
