MAIL TRIBUNE
When The U.S.A. Won't Talk
A controversy of long standing over what govern
ment information the public is entitled to receive is
coming up for another round of discussion in hearings
of a House Government Operations subcommittee
headed by Rep. John E. Moss, (D-Calif). In prepar
ing for the hearings, slated for early fall, Moss has
sent questionnaires to 60 government agencies and
departments.
V. M. Newton. Jr.. chairman of the Freedom of
Information Committee of
sional journalistic fraternity, in an interim report 01
April 20, notes that "after 15 months trial of the Eis
enhower order (Executive Order 10-501), there ap
pears confusion even among the Washington press as
to whether it has aided the citizens 'to know what
their government is doing'."
Newton presents a symposium of opinion of Wash
ington newsmen. Paul R. Leach, Knight Newspaper
Washington Bureau chief, at one extreme, informed
the committee : "I believe the present administration
is much more open than the previous two were on giv
ing information." But Joseph and Stewart Alsop
wrote :
It is a very serious matter indeed, and not just for re
porters but for every one, when the American government
actively seeks to stop the flow of significant information to
the American rublic. And that is what is happening today,
on the specious pretext of "maintaining security."
EISENHOWER Order 10-501, issued Nov. 6, 1953,
replaced former President Truman's Executive
Order 10-290, issued on Sept. 24, 1951. Under the
Truman order every government agency had power
to classifly documents for
The Eisenhower directive deprived 28 non-mili-tary
agencies of classifying power. It abolished the
"restricted category ot classitication. it limited class
ifying authority in 17 other non-military agencies to
the agency chief.
Secretary of Commerce Sinclair Weeks, at the di
rection of the President and on recommendation of
the National Security Council, on Nov. 5, 1954, estab
lished a new agency, the Office of Strategic Informa
tion, to "work with the business community" on voluntary-safeguarding
of classified strategic data. J.
Russell Wiggins, chairman of the American Society of
Newspaper Editors' Freedom of Information Commit
tee, wrote:
To the extent that this effort succeeds it will impair the
right of the American people to know and (will) interfere
with a system of industrial and commercial information to
which we are enormously indebted for our industrial and
business progress.
17IGGINS was even more critical when R. Karl
Honaman, director of the O.S.I., on April 25
was named Deputy Assistant Defense Secretary for
Public. Affairs. Defense Secretary Charles E. Wilson
on March 30 had issued two separate orders: (a.) im
posing strict limitations on speeches and published
material of military personnel and (b.) replacing
military public information directors with civilians.
The first of these orders established as a criterion for
release of information in addition to security
whether the material would constitute a "constructive
contribution to the primary mission" of the Depart
ment. PRESIDENT Eisenhower on April 27 told reporters
that a "blunder" had been made by the Republi
can Policy Committee in issuing a pamphlet giving
data on new weapons. Press Secretary James C. Hag
erty explained that the President "felt" that the press
in general had disclosed technical military secrets but
that the President always had opposed "censorship
of legitimate news." But Leonard Engel, writing of
the Salk anti-polio vaccine controversy, criticizes the
"misguided attempt by the Department of Health, Ed
ucation and Welfare to withhold from the public -for
many weeks information the public was entitled to
know from the beginning." E.R.R.
Boss of Coast Guard
Pulling for Gaston
To Win Commission
Washington (U.R) The boss
of the Coast Guard is pulling for
Pierre Gaston to win his fight
for the Coast Guard commission
he failed to get because of "guilt
by kinship" problems.
Vice Adm. Alfred C. Rich
mond, Coast Guard command
ant, said he hopes Gaston's case
is "resolved quickly and I hopep
it will be in his favor.
Gaston, 23-year-old San Fran
cisco seafarer, graduated from
the Coast Guard Academy last
April. But his commission has
been held up because of charges
his mother once belonged to
some subversive groups.
The mother, Mrs. Jean Grisez,
said she joined the organizations
because she is a "bundles-for-Britain
sort of person interested
in good sounding causes." She
denied any Communist leanings
and Gaston himself was dsecrib.
ed as having no interest in pol
itics. Richmond said yesterday that
Gaston's commission has not
actually been turned down yet.
It is merely being held up until
the case is settled.
"Unfortunately," he said, "the
case has not yet been resolved.
But I hope it is resolved quickly
and I hope it will be in his favor.
"We try to lean over back
wards to protect the rights of
the individual but we don't want
to jeopardize the security of the
United States."

The case currently is being re
viewed by Coast Guard security
boards. It eventually will go to
Richmond and the Secretary of
the Treasury for final decision.
Third Case
The Gaston case is one of
three so-called "guilt by kin
ship" cases which have stirred
national attention in recent
weeks.
Eugene W. Landy, an honor
graduate of the Merchant Marine
Academy, was denied a Naval re
serve commission because . his
mother once was a- Communist.
A special board set up Saturday
by Navy Security Charles S.
Thomas is reviewing the case.
Another case came to light
Saturday when Congressiopal
sources revealed a Cleveland
scientist, Fred Karpoff , was fired
from a government research' job
because his parents allegedly
belonged to a onetime Commun
ist front group. The Civil Service
Commission, under Congres
sional pressure, has agreed to
re-examine the case.

Today and
By Walter
THE VULNERABILITY
OF NATO
There are already plenty of
3igns that the future of NATO
cannot be taken for granted, and
that if its stra
tegic and pol
itical founda
tions are not
strengthened it
will fade and
languish. To be
sure, the pre
liminary re
ports of the
meiffbers do
not as yet con
tain proposals
to reduce their
Walter Lippmann
military contributions. As Eur
ope is enjoying great prosper
ity, there can be no serious ar
guments about their being able
to afford to live up to their com.
mitments.
Nevertheless, there is sure to
be mounting popular pressure,
which will be felt on the parlia
ments, to reduce the length of
military service and the size of
the military expenditures. What
is more, although the govern
ments themselves are not now
giving in to the popular pressure,
they are already acting as they
would never thijik of acting if
they were absolutely serious
about the military conception of
NATO. They have accepted
without protest or much worry
ing about it the withdrawal of
the larger part of the French
army to North Africa. As there
is no German army, this easy
going acceptance of a military
vacuum can mean only that the
Atlantic powers do not think
their security depends in any
critical degree upon the contin
ental ground forces.
TT IS easy enough to say that
as the tension with the Soviet
Union has become relaxed, the
effort within the NATO is be
coming relaxed too. But this can
not be the whole explanation.
For if, as Mr. Dulles and every,
one else is saying, the Soviets
are more friendly because NATO
has been armed and united, why
should there be any doubt that
the NATO powers will carry on
so successful a policy? Is it be
cause the people cannot be made
to understand a policy which
to Mr. Dulles, and other high of
ficials seems so obvious?
I do not think so. It is true
that democracies tend to become
too pacificistic when there's peace
just as in war they tend to be
come bellicose and to demand
unconditional surrender and to
tal victory. But the turnabout
in opinion would not be likely
to happen so quickly if there
were not something hollow and
unconvincing in the official
NATO doctrine.
fFHAT something is the fact
that it is a long time since
anyone has really believed, if
anyone ever believed it, that the
security of Europe and of the
Atlantic community depends up
on being able to win a defensive
battle on the German ground
between the Rhine and the Elbe
rivers. This is the reason why
the present strategical structure
of NATO lacks the genuine pop
ular support in Western Europe,
including . Western Germany.
This is why the support of NATO
is so easily undermined. The
people, with their governments
close behind them, are quick to
lay down a heavy burden which
they do not think of as necessary
to their security and their sur
vival. I am speaking as one who has
been for the Atlantic alliance
since the first World War, who
regards it as a vital and endur.
ing necessity of U.S. foreign pol
icy. We have the principal re
sponsibility for the fact that
NATO is threatened because of
its strategical foundations are
not really believed in. For some
years we have been proclaiming
fromr the house-tops our belief
that 'if war comes, it will be
fought with nuclear weapons.
We have also been crying from
the house-tops that in a modern
war, not even the United States,
which is 4,000 miles from- the
Soviet Union, can be defended
securely. How in the name of
common sense can we then ex
pect the Europeans, who have
no defense whatsoever against
nuclear weapons, to think that
their security depends upon one
dozen or two dozen infantry
divisions?
VlfE shall have to rethink and
restate the strategical found
ations of NATO if in the days
to come, the essential alliance is
not to wither away for lack of
popular understanding and sup
port. Perhaps the place to being
our review is to go back to the
beginning. Originally, NATO was
based on the American monop.
oly of atomic weapons and upon
the Strategic Air Force. Western
Europe, which was virtually dis
armed, was given an American
guarantee that there would be
massive retaliation if the Red
Army advanced.
Then the European nations, es
pecially France, began to argue
that they were afraid they would
be over-run while Congress was
debating whether to declare war.
Tomorrow
Lippmann
So, to make American partici
pation automatic, we agreed to
station American troops in the
line of any Soviet advance.
The next stage came with the
realization that the real danger
of a Soviet advance lay in the
fact that one of the Western gov
ernments, lacking an adequate
army, might be overthrown by
a Communist uprising, and that
a Communist government might
then invite the Red Army to.
come in to protect it. This was
the real threat. This was the
real reason why it become im
portant to build up ground forc
es in France, Italy, Belgium, the
Netherlands, and Western Ger
many.
Then came the Korean war,
and in its darkest hours the
panic notion was hatched in the
Pentagon that Europe was like
South Korea, and that it could
not be defended except with an
enormous ground army. We are
still living in the aftermath and
with the political debris of that
panic.
VET it is true now, as it was
-1 in the beginning, that, aoart
from internal order, the extern
al security of Western Europe
depends upon the over-all bal
ance of power between East and
West. When NATO was found
ed, the United States still had
an atomic monopoly. Now there
is an atomic stalemate. But that
is proving itself to be a decisive
deterrent against overt aggres
sion, and it is this historic de
velopment which was reflected
and registered at Geneva.
We shall now have to modern
ize the strategic conception of
and the strategic arguments for
NATO. For. as of now. there is
too great a disparity between
what NATO is suDDOsed to be
doing and what the U.S.A. and
the U.S.S.R. are in fact 4oing.

Radio Moscow
Praises Farmers
London (U.R) Radio Moscow
said today the American farm
delegation that recentlv visited
the Soviet Union showed "good
will" and "friendly criticism."
"The true friend is not he who
praises all the time, but he who
speaks the truth," said : the
broadcast which was monitored
here.
"The characteristic of the U.S
farmers' visit was good win,'
Radio Moscow said.
"After their trip, the Ameri
can farm delegates spoke of the
things they had seen, and they
also offered some criticism of
certain shortcomings they had
noticed.
"We are aware of these short
comings and don't try to hide
them and we want to overcome
them.
"The friendly criticism made
Dy tne American delegates will
help us. And the very fact that
this criticism was offered is an
other sign of the cordial healthy
atmosphere in which the Ameri
can farmers made their tour of
the Soviet Union."
Nebraska Prison
Riof Investigated
Lincoln, Neb. (U.R) A state
investigation began today into
the strife-torn Nebraska Peni
the strife-torn Uebraska Peni
tentiary. Once again, rebel convicts set
fire to prison property and were
subdued by shotguns Sunday.
Prison guards, backed up by
National Guardsmen, advanced
upon the prison's two-story seg
regation building, firing shotgun
blasts as they came.
The 16 rioters promptly end
ed their 15-hour rebellion and
surrendered with their hands in
the air.
Prison authorities said 13 of
the rioters were ringleaders in
an uprising of more than 300
convicts at the prison last Tues
day and Wednesday.
The state Board of Control
was. called in to investigate the
third outbreak at the peniten
tiary in five months. No reason
was given for the latest riot, al
though Warden Joseph Bovey
commented "they don't need a
reason to start an uprising."
Foreign Bike Tariff
Increased SO Per Cent
Fraser, Colo, r (U.R) Presi
dent Eisenhower has increased
the tariff on imported bicycles
by 50 per cent to avoid "threat
ened serious injury" to the
American bicycle industry.
It was estimated unofficially
that the . move could raise the
price of imported bikes any
where from $1 to ?3 and maybe
more.

In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
Sad news:
Sgt. James Gallagher has been
sentenced by a court martial to
confinement at hard labor for
life. The sentencing came shortly
after he was convicted of various
offenses,- including the unpre
meditated murder of two fellow
American prisoners of war while
in a North Korean prison camp.
He was also found guilty of
charges involving mistreating
and informing on fellow Korean
war prisoners and collaborating
with the Chinese Reds.
T SUPPOSE there have to be
bad apples in every barrel.
Let's think of the MILLIONS
UPON MILLIONS of good ap
ples in our armed services barrel.
TN ADDITION to the other dam-
age they wrought in their
binges, Connie and Diane took
a heavy toll of Southern and
Eastern crops.
North Carolina's Governor
Luther Hodges reports between
22 and $27,000,000 of lost farm
products, mostly tobacco and
corn. Virginia expects to lose
about $3,500,000 worth of bright
leaf tobacco raw material for
cigarettes in one area along the
North Carolina border.
They also, exacted a heavy
crop toll as they advanced north
ward through the rich farming
districts of Maryland, Pennsyl
vania, New York and all of New
England.
I SOMETIMES wonder if intel
ligent, businesslike, nation
wide crop insurance wouldn't
be worth more in the long run
than all these efforts to support
the prices of certain farm crops
thus building up huge sur
pluses to hang like a dark cloud
over the markets.
CJPEAKING of losses:
U Dr. Harry Kingman, rep
resenting an organization known
as Livestock Conservation, Inc.,
tells the American Veterinarian
association at its annual meeting
now in session at Minneapolis
that American livestock men
lose $2,000,000,000 per year
through mishandling and dis
ease and parasite attacks on
their animals.
He adds that this amounts to
about ONE-FIFTH of the annual
income from meat, milk, hides
and .wool. .
The job of veterinary science
is to CUT DOWN these losses.
SPEAKING of science and its
job, the American Society of
Agronomy . (soil scientists) is
meeting this week at Davis,
which is the agricultural part of
the University - of California
campus.
These soil scientists report that
they are working on a cotton
problem. It isn't concerned with
cotton FIBER. Instead, H has
to do with cotton seed, from
which we get cottonseed oil and
cottonseed meal.
As of now, and over all the
years of the past, pigment glands
in cotton seeds DISCOLOR the
oil, thus reducing its market
quality.
The scientists report that they
have under development several
promising strains of cotton
which have few or NO pigment
glands in their seeds.
AND- .-
University of Washington
researchers report to their fel
low researchers at the Davis
meeting that they have found
that nitrogen makes forests grow
faster.
They applied nitrogen to a 30-
year-old stand of Douglas fir and
carefully observed the results.
The trees, they say, grew much
faster in height and diameter.
This was especially true of the
LARGER trees.
The importance of that state
ment lies in the fact that under
natural conditions larger and
older trees tend to grow slower
than smaller and younger trees.
THAT is to say:
As our VIRGIN forests de
cline, we are forced to rely on
new growth for our needs in the
way of lumber and wood fiber.
By the use of fertilizer, we can
SPEED UP timber growth.
SO MUCH for science.
Let's now take a look at
SUPERSTITION which is non-
science.

Matter of
THE CONFIDENCE TRICK
Washington With the help
of the convenient cloak of of
ficial secrecy, a really dangerous
confidence
trick is being
played on this
country by the
present leader
ship at the Pen
tagon. It is a simple
trick. High
officials pious
ly declare that
the "American
lead" in such
Joseph Also fields as air
craft and missile development
can never be challenged by the
wretched and uncultured Rus
sians. Everyone likes to believe
that there is an American lead.
The hard facts of Soviet tech
nical progress are heavily classi
fied. So none but the closest
students of the problem doubt
the official claims.
But in fact the official claims
are false; and what is more they
are consciously false, unless the
Pentagon leaders have persuad
ed themselves not to . credit the
hard and disagreeable facts pre
sented to them by the American
intelligence.
As an example of the kind of
nature-faking that is. currently
going on,' the real story of the
satellite was just revealed in this
space. The American decision to
build a small earth satellite was
presented to the country as one
more proof of the "American
lead."
In fact, it was a proof of the
American lag.
The decision was taken be
cause the policy-makers had been
warned that the Soviets wpi-p
already building a larger and
more militarily significant earth
satellite than that now planned
in this country: and because
there were indications that the
Kremlin shortly intended to an
nounce this fact to -the world.
. The Soviet lead in the satel
lite race may nerhaus be con
cealed from the country by the
American policy-makers' forced
choice of a satellite type which
has the useful virtues of being
relatively cheap and easy to
Duua.
But. publicity techniques will
not work forever. Consider, for
example, the following balance
sheet -of the state of the long
range guided missile program in
this country and the Soviet Un
ion.
iukst, tne Soviets set up a
x Manhattan district-style or
ganization to press guided mis
sile development immediately
after the war; and this organi
zation has been working full
blast with .top-priority call on
men and materiel, ever since
that moment. They started with
more Russian and captured Ger
man scientists experienced in
rocketry than we had. While
General Electric was building
one Chinese copy of a German
V-2, the Soviets were producing
1,000 improved models in the
captured V-2 factory in East
Germany. In short, they took the
lead at the start.
Second, hard intelligence was
received at least a year ago that
the Soviets had successfully de
signed and produced a new rock
et motor, the M-102, with the
enormous thrust of 264,000
pounds per second at sea level.
The actual design and production
of the M-102 had occurred con
siderably more than a year ago.
This clearly indicated a Soviet
lead in high-powered rocket en
gine design.
Third, it is now accepted as
quite certain that the Soviets
have also designed and produced
a two-stage rocket, with the very
great range of about 1,500 miles.
Such a rocket represents the last
step but one before the success
ful design and production of the
ultimate weapon, the inter-con-
tinental ballistic missile or stag
ed rocket that can strike from
continent to continent. We do
not seem to have reached this
last but one step.

charge against
Him was His
claim that He
was the Son of

into their hearts a God's Son who
Hied for their sins. God gives
eternal life. These will not see
the Judgment Day of the Lost
nor know the pains of eternal
hell. afiv.
