Editorial Correspondence
New York City, N. Y., March 1 Seldom In recent yeara has
the present writer been able to go "ALL-out" for any individual
in public life. , . ... ,
We have supported various candidates for office because they
have appeared to bo the best In the field, but usually with cer
tain, If unexpressed, reservations. Most of them have not only dis
played foot of clay, but havo failed utterly to qualify in any sense
at Individuals of superior character, intellect or attainments.
It Is, therefore, with genuine pleasure and enthusiasm that,
after following the recent course and utterances of Secretary of
State Acheson we have found him to be In our Judgment one
o( the few really GREAT men in American public life today. In
fact we would go so far as to name him as one of the greatest Sec
retaries of State In American history, deserving to be ranked with
such outstanding Secretaries as Seward, Blaine, Elihu Root and
Henry Stimson. see
Yes, al we see It, Dean Acheson Is a truly GREAT man!
And nothing haa testified to his greatness more clearly and
emphatically than his refusal to Join the mob action In condemna
tion of Alger Hisa following the lattcr'a conviction. Acheson came
out courageously and frankly at once, not to exonerate or justify
Hiss, but to state that he had been a close personal friend of Alger
Hiss, that now in his hour of tragedy and humtlitlon, he would
NOT turn his back on him.
That, the Secretary added in explanation, he regarded as es
sentially a personal ma'tter. He was not speaking In his official ca
pacity as Secretary but as an Individual a human being doing
what to be true to himself, he felt he HAD to do and because of the
circumstances surrounding his own appointment, It wa his duty
to do.
Mr. Acheson took particular pains to make no comment di
rectly or indirectly upon the criminal charges against Mr. Hiss,
since those charges through appeal arc still before the courts. But
he did insist upon stating clearly what his personal reactions to
the conviction were, and with his old and close friend, "In the
greatest trouble in which a man could be," he would NOT only
refuse to desert him but would publicly express that spirit of loy
alty and compassion for him, which he regarded as the "highest
of Christian duties and as the highest quality in the sight of God."
This Biblical reference caused considerable surprise in cer
tain sections of the congress, and among the Secretary's political
enemies eyebrows were raisud and hypocritical piety hinted.
We grant following Christian principles LITERALLY is a
novel procedure In American political life today. But there is no
doubt whatever, that Dean Acheson, the son of an Episcopal
Bishop, and a "sincere believer," meant just what he said, and he
also was completely honest and sincere when he added;
"One must be true to the things by which one lives.
The counsels of discretion and cowardice are appealing.
The safe course is to avoid situations which are disagree
able and dangerous. Such a course might get one by the
issue of the moment, but it has bitter and evil conse
quences. In the long days and years which stretch beyond
that moment of decision one must live with one's self;
and the consequences of living with a decision which one
knows has sprung from timidity and cowardice go to the
roots of one's life. It is not merely a question of peace of
mind, though that is vital; it is a matter of integrity of
character. This is the most fundamental of all considera
tions." AMENI
And here, we believe, Is the hall-mark of greatness, namely:
spiritual stature. No informed person has ever questioned Secre
tary Acheson's ability, his Idealism, his courage, but added to these
qualities there Is an elevation and integrity of the SPIRIT, which
is as rare a quality In the public life of contemporary America, as
artesian wells In the Sahara. We arc glad some leading figure In
American politics has not only the intellectual but the moral stat
ure to take his place among the truly great public servants the
democratic world has produced. Such a fact renews one's faith In
democracy and reassures one as to the world's future.
Speaking of the future, the skipper of this department Is get
ting very much irked by the radio oracles of doom who are becom
ing so popular over the air since the hydrogen bomb was an
nounced. What's the big idea? Pull another "Orson Welles" and
scare the wits out of the already troubled populace? Or is the idea
to scare Soviet Russia?
Whatever the motivation this department herewith files a
strong protest against it.
In the first place no one knows just what the hydrogen bomb
can do, or whether or not It can ever be perfected. This talk about
destroying all life on this planet, human, animal and vegetable, Is
therefore purely conjecture.
But assuming the bomb was proved to be as devastating ss
advertised, and can be utilized without destroying those who em
ploy it; what useful purpose is served by broadcasting the informa
tion to all and sundry AT THIS
Increase popular sentiments of
duce a psychology which might
and panic and lower morale everywhere.
Let the scientists keep the
are cehtain of tnelr facts, and
erly sifted and distributed, so the
stand the situation, instead of being led to assumptions which arc
not justified? As a general tiling we are opposed to censorsnip, out
In this particular realm we favor It.
We heartily approve therefore the statement yesterday by
Davled Llllenthal, former head of the U. S. Atomic Energy Com
mission at the New York Town Hull, quote:
"Let us have understanding instead of panic, sense
Instead of sensation, courage and faith Instead of fear."
Again amen!
And let one of the wisest things the late F.D.R. ever said not
he forgotten, namely:
"The only thing we have to fear, Is fear."
The above Is not a plea for any ostrich policy, any failure to
face the facts; it is a plea to hold our horses, to observe some re
straint, to look before we leap, and above all be CERTAIN of all
facts before we broadcast any of them, to the country and the
world.
If there Is, as some claim, a natural attraction between onno-
sitcs. then the contention of the
case that Valentin and Judv were not engaged in an espionage con
spiracy, but in a torrid romance just "crazy-crazy in love." as
Gubltchev's attorney declared in his opening address to the Jury
makes soma sense.
For two more different types as far as court behavior goes,
could scarcely be imagined.
Day In day out this funny little man Gubitchev sits in his
chair at the defense table liko a graven Image, pale, self-contained,
arms folded on his chest, eyes downcast, barely blinking an eve
but unquestionably "all ears"; silent, dour, almost as though he
vere sitting for his photograph with one of those iron clamps on
the back of his head, which were common In photograph studios
some BO years ago only this motionless pose Is frozen and per
manent. Judy Conlon particularly since she got her three "smart" at
torneys, the exact opposite is restless, nervous, constantly on the
move, writing brief notes, whispering suggestions, running a deli
cate hand every now and then through her back hair-do, turning
her eyes this way and that the Jurv, the Judge, her lawvers
everywhere but in the direction of her co-defendant Yep. if there
is an attraction between opposites then there was some BASIS for
a romance whether or not anv renllv existed.
Our own belief is none did. We agree with one of our neigh
bors at yesterday's session, a typical "man-about-town" from the
Bronx; quote:
"Tell you buddy when I tako out a blonde on a hot
date I don't li her chase around In the dark all over the
Bronx on one side of the street, while I do the fade-out on
the other. And when it comes to a bus or the subwav at
night I don't sit In one scat and mv girl friend out of
reach. Naw It's lust a stall. I say lock em both up and
throw awav the kev!" R.W'.R.

Is it bad technique to kiss a
girl on the first date? That is
the query put to us by a Toledo
bachelor. Life is short. There is
no reason why a girl shouldn't
be kissed on the first date if the
situation is handled properly.
After applying the kiss, the
young man should beg the girl's
foreglveness, saying: "I shouldn't
have kissed you. But you're so
beautiful and your appeal is so
strong I just couldn't help my
self." That usually smooths out
the situation nicely. Girls don't
mind being kissed on the first
date, but they do not want to
give the Impression they are
easily kissed. Or so say our

The farmer benefits because
he takes his stuff to the market

WHAT was he up to?
Well. I sometimes wonder
if BOREDOM doesn't lie at the
root of a lot of the things that
puzzle us when they happen.
Maybe this guy Just couldn't take
it any longer and had to blow
off.
IN an interview with Arthur
Krock of the New York Times
(who is perhaps the best-known
of all the Washington correspon
dents) John L. Lewis Insists that
neither public health nor safety
Is imperiled by the nationwide
coal strike.
He says there is enough coal
on hand, if "fairly distributed,"
to last out the time needed to
end the dispute.
WE have to take John L's state
ments (and about every
body else's, for that matter) with
a grain of salt, because modern
strikes are war and war involves
propaganda. But I'm inclined to
agree with him that the suffer
ing that is alleged to be accom
panying the big coal binge isn't
as great as it is painted by some
of our more impressionable ob
servers. We have a regrettable ten
dency to overdo these things
especially when they have poli
tical angles, as the coal strike
has.
AMONG other things, you:
V"" know, we have to remem-1
ber that the administration does-1
n't like Mr. Lewis).
IN fact, big modern strikes are i
beginning to involve a cur-1
ions paradox. !
Take the steel strike, for ex- j
ample. The steel strike, like the
coal strike, was largely in the i

strike would play hob with bus

What haDDened? I
Well, the steel strike TOUCH
ED OFF A BOOM. The steel in
dustry's operations had been
sliding off steadily for months.
Came then the strike. AFTER the
strike, everybody rushed In to
buy steel which he hadn't been
able to buy while the mills were
down.
Output zoomed. The mills,
which had been operating away
down in the neighborhood of 80
per cent of their capacity,
promptly jumped tip to an ap
proximation of 100 per cent of
capacity.
They have been going great
guns every since.
MAYBE we are entering an
other "new era."
Maybe strikes are beginning
to take the place of the old and
now discredited boom and bust
cycle. The boom and bust cycle
was supposed to have had its be
