Sound Doctrine
"Mistakes of a Freshman senator," by Dick Neu
berger in the June "American" should be widely read
in Oregon. . . .
For it has a bi-partisan appeal. The Republicans
will enjoy it, for they of course believe Senator Neu
berger has made many mistakes, and they will find
in this article a frank and pleasing admission of some
of them.
The Democrats will enjoy it, for the article gives
a very candid and sincere record of our junior Sen
ator's experiences and impressions of his first year in
the senate. '
But members of both parties should heartily ap
prove of the following paragraph near the close:
"I am certain I can be a good and faithful senator from
the standpoint of all the people only if the office means so
little to me personally that I am not afraid to lose it. If I
ever think in my own mind that it would be intolerable to
cease being a senator then I have lost much of my capacity
to serve without selfishness and without fear. Threats and
pressures can move me, as I see it, only when I am frightened
of defeat."
In other words hew to the line of what you believe
to be the best for your state and nation letting the
chips fall where they may, and if to be true to oneself
and to what one believes to be right, means defeat,
then let defeat come and to heck with it !
.
WE HOPE Dick Neuberger never deviates from
that conception of his duty as a Senator, and we
don't believe he ever will. ' -
We only wish that quotation could be placed on
every senator's desk and that more representatives of
the people in the Upper House would follow it. And
the Lower House, for that matter.

N FACT we can't, at the
that would improve the
more than to have the members of the congress as a

standpoint of the public welfare. R. W. R.

Today and

ON VISITING BACK
AND FORTH
There is much embarrassment
in .Washington over the invita
tions which are coming " from
Moscow. It
would look
very silly in
deed if we re
fused to let
General Twin
ing go to Mos
cow and to
have a look at
the Soviet Air
Force. Yet we
Walter Lippmann hesitate. What
is worrying the Administration
is that the invitation will have
to be returned, and that as one
thing is supposed to lead to an
other, we shall end up as Sen
ator Knowland put it the other
day with Khrushchev and
Bulganin coming to Washington
to sleep in Lincoln s bed.
All this arises from .a certain
confusion, from a failure to dis
tinguish between a meeting of
the heads of government and a
meeting of subordinate officers
and officials. It does not follow
at all that visits of the chiefs of
staff, defense officials and the
like, must lead to a visit by
Khrushchev and Bulganin. A
meeting of the heads of govern
ment may not now be. desirable
at all. It seems to me it is not
now desirable. But that does
not mean that we ought not to
welcome exchanges of visits and
a general increase of communi
cations between the Soviet
Union and the United States.
THE essential difference be-
tween meeting at the summit
and meeting at lower levels is
that the men at the top have
the power to negotiate and to
make decisions. Below the sum
mit, men can only report, ex
plore, and follow instructions,
To hold a meeting at the sum
mit is always an act of "high
policy in that it announces a
hope ; that decisions will be
taken.
Because of this, a meeting
among adversaries at the sum
mit, as distinct from a meeting
among allies, should not be held
until there is virtual certainty
that they have reached some
agreement. At the first Geneva
meeting there was every reason
to believe that they had reached
an agreement on the impossibili
ty of thermonuclear war.
.
A MEETING at the summit
ought not to be held unless
it is sure to succeed. This means
that the parties to it must al
ready have negotiated success
fully ' through diplomatic chan
nels before they meet. If they
have not done this, they run the
risk not only of disagreeing
more spectacularly than ever,
but of digging themselves into
positions from which they can
not then negotiate, '
There need be no embarrass
ment in saying frankly that we
do not favor a meeting at the
summit until there have been
successful negotiations through
diplomatic channels. Once this
is our known policy, we need
not shrink from,-indeed" we can
encourage, the exchange of vis
its. The world will be spared
the hullabaloo of publicity, of
false hopes and dashed hopes, of
rumors and, suspicion, that
would attend a visit by Bulganin
and Khrushchev to Washington.
I
T CAN be said that they went
to London, that nothing
spectacular happened, and that
the confidential talks were use
ful. The fact of the matter is
that a visit to Washington would
be a quite different affair. It
Senator Neuberger
Expresses Pleasure
At Seaton Naming
Washington, D.C. (Special)
Here is the text of Sen. Richard
L. Neuberger's statement on the
nomination of Fred A. Seaton, an
assistant to President Eisen
hower, as secretary of the inter
ior succeeding Douglas McKay.
I am very pleased that the
President has repudiated the
policies of ex-Secretary McKay,
and has gone completely outside
the discredited Interior Depart
ment -to obtain a new head for
that department. It is indeed for
tunate that the President has
chosen to select a secretary not
connected with McKay's policies
which led to the surrender of the
Hells Canyon power site, sur
render of the Al Sarena timber
in the Rogue River National For
est, and turning over of our
priceless wildlife refuges to pe
troleum companies for oil wild
catting. . - -t
"Had the . President apprved
of the McKay policies, he would
have selected acting-Secretary
Davis, to continue them. The
naming of Mr. Seaton' from en
tirely outside the Interior De
partment is endorsement of the
belief that the McKay regime
was a failure. While I am, of
course, not making any commit
ments in advance, I am far more
disposed to vote for confirma
tion of Mr. Seaton than for any
previous associate of ex-Secretary
McKay," .
Tomorrow
Lippmann
would be a meeting at the sum
mit in the sense that the London
meeting was not. For the Presi
dent has a kind of decisive pow
er within the Western alliance
which gives him tremendous re
sponsibility in talking with the
Russians. He is responsible to
his allies. In a personal negotia
tion at the summit he may not
be able to consult them ade
quately. If he makes concessions
in order to reach agreements, he
may be accused of letting down
his allies and of partitioning the
world between the two giant
powers. If he makes no conces
sions, he may be more inflexible
than his allies wish to be.
? No such dilemma exists as
long as the President deals with
the Soviet Union through diplo
matic channels. For then he can
consult his allies at every step
on the way.
A LL this is, must admit, hard
to square with the enthusi
asm of Secretary Dulles, for
travelling personal diplomacy.
"It is silly," he has said on tele
vision, "to go at it in the old
fashioned way of exchanging
notes, which take a month per
haps before you get a good un
derstanding," when "by over
night flight" and "talking a few
minutes face to face," the Sec
retary of State can get a good
understanding.
Is Mr. Dulles right in thinking
that a month is too long to take
for a good understanding? And
is he right that when men get
off an over-night plane and talk
face to face for a few minutes
that they always know what
they are talking about? Mr.
Dulles has travelled 310,000
miles, and can it be said that the
globe is studded with good un
derstandings? In any event, his enthusism
for face to. face diplomacy will
probably stop short of enthu
siasm for a face to face meeting
in Washington between the
President and the Soviet leaders.
But, given his enthusism for per
sonal diplomacy; he will find it
harder to explain his lack of
enthusiasm for a Bulganin and
Krushchev visit.

COMMUNISTS AND
NATIONALISTS
Damascus, Syria Here in
Syria, which is a small country,
the diverse elements that make
ud Soviet Mid-
die Eastern
policy stand
m sharp re-
Jief.'Since this
policy appears
to be co m
pletely misun
d e r stood ' at
home, it is
worth listing
osepn .isup the elements
item by item, and then seeing
what they add up to.
ITEM: Damascus is still agog
over the aftermath of. the Khrus-
chev-Bulganin visit to London
This was the revelation to the
Syria nand Egyptian govern
ments, by the Soviet Ambassa
dors here and in Cairo, of the
alleged main theme of the So
viet leaders in the Downing
Street talks. According to the
Ambassadors, Khruschev ; and
Bulganin flatly declared that the
progressive and peace loving
bloc would be squarely behind
the Arab states in the event of a
renewal of the Arab-Israeli war.
The Soviet diplomatists almost
certainly misrepresented what
passed in London. But their ver
sion of the London talks has of
course been delightedly accepted
here, and is reportedly credited
in Cairo as well.
ITEM: In the last month, So
viet diplomats here, in Cario
and in other Arab capitals have
begun to talk with Arab leaders
about the possible terms of a
settlement with Israel. The Arab
response may be easily imagined.
It is a fair bet that these Soviet
feelers are a prelude to a solid
endorsement by Moscow of the
United Nations 1947 plan for the
partition of Palestine, as the
only fair solution of the Arab
Israeli problem. - '
A return to the U.N. plan of
1947, which was put forward! re
member, before the Israeli vic
tory over the ; Arabs, would
mean reducing the area how
held by Israel by almost 40 per
cent. It is what the Arabs have
been asking for. Any such Soviet
move in the U. N.; Security Coun
cil will leave "the American and
British governments as gasping
and helpless as hopelessly
beached salmon. We shall be
made to seem the enemies; the
Soviets will appear as the special
friends and protectors of Arab
nationalism.
r?EM: ,. On the sub-diplomatic
level three kinds of activity
are being carried on concurrent
ly. The local Communist parties
have been given a- very special
mission, not to . increase their
own strength, but to reinforce in
all ways possible the strength of
the non-Communist, anti-Western
forces here. The Syrian Com
munist leader Khaled Baqdash,
has. been using all his consider
able charm to convince the more
conservative elements in Syria
that he is just another nationalist
Tito May Ask Russian
To Loosen
By CHARLES M. McCANN
United Press Correspondent
President Tito of Yugoslavia
is likely to ask Russia next week
to loosen its grip on its eastern
European sat
ellite govern
ments.
Tito, the
only Commu
nist leader
who ever suc
cessful d e-
fied Josef Sta
lin, is due to
arrive in Mos-
Charles Mccann cowuuesaay.
He is returning the humiliat
ing visit which Soviet Premier
Nikolai A. Bulganin . and Com
niunist Party leader Nikita S
Khrushchev paid him one year
ago this month.
Mr. B. and Mr. K. went to
Belgrade to apologize for the
savage attacks which Stalin
and they themselves had made
on Tito as the result of his break
with- Kremlin Communism in
1948.
Mr. B. and Mr. K. invited Tito
during their visit to go to Mos
cow. It has taken him long to pick
the time. It seems pretty clear
that he has decided to go now
because he thinks the situation
which arose from Stalin's de
bunking is developing favorably.
Wide Subject Range "
Tito told a United Press cor
respondent last week in Bel
grade that he intends to discuss
a wide range of subjects includ
ing Yugoslav-Russian relations
and international diplomatic
problems
Tito said that he regarded the
debunking of Stalin as marking
a "great historical change" in
Russia. " '
This change, he said, would af
fect future developments both
in Russia itself "and in other
eastern countries.
. He especially emphasized that
the change has brought about
"the possibility ' of different
states being able to take differ
ent paths to Socialism."
That referred to Russia's satel
lites. It means that Tito feels the
time has come lor. the Kremlin
to give the satellite governments
more freedom in running their
own affairs,

bourgeois at heart. His organ
izers, in similar false whiskers,
are being sent out to assist any
political grouping or movement
with an anti-Western tendency.
.. ITEM: The nationalist appar
atus is being powerfully backed
up, in turn, by a commercial ap
peal. All sorts of Soviet and
satellite trade missions are
swarming through this country
and the other Arab lands, mak
ing tenders on locally important
projects of every sort. Because of
the wages paid the workers, in'
the workers' paradise, it is possi
ble that many of these bids are
quite honest. In any case, they
are almost invariably much low
er than bids by Western firms.
Meanwhile, great efforts are also
being made to persuade local
business, political and cultural
leaders to visit the Soviet Union
and the satellite states for the
full red carpet treatment.
TTEM: The desire of the Arabs
for ;' more and , more arms
against Israel is constantly being
exploited. Besides the new arms
deal that seems to be in the mak
ing with the Chinese in Cairo,
the Syrians here are completing
negotiations to purchase another
$25,000,000 worth of surplus So
viet arms through the Czechs.
What, then, is one to make of
the complex pattern of diplo
matic, economic, propagandists
and underground action? The
first point that sticks out a mile
is that, for the present, the Krem
lin is making no serious effort
whatever to promote commun
ism AS communism in this part
of the world. Gamal Abdel Nas
ser has sternly suppressed the
Communist party in Egypt, but
here in Syria the local Commun
ists are more pro-Nasser than
Nasser himself. '
The second point that also
stands out a mile is that the
Kremlin is making the most des
perate efforts to capture the
Arab nationalist movement
which Col. Nasser symbolizes
and - effectively leads.'. The aim,
of course, is to use Arab nation
alism to destroy every Western
position in the Middle East, and
to substitute Soviet influence
for Western influence every
where throughout this strategic
ally vital region.
THIS the aim,' in turn," because
thp whnlp Western Alliance
can be brought down in ruins
here-in the Middle East. Let the
oil which is Britain's and West
ern Europe's lifeblood once be
shut off, even for a very short
period of time, and the ensuing
economic catastrophe in Britain
and Western Europe can be
counted on to break the Anglo
American partnership, to destroy
NATO, and to achieve, almost
automatically, pretty nearly ev
ery other Kremlin goal on this
side of the Atlantic. -
If this brilliantly conceived
operation succeeds, it will be
time for the Kremlin to deal
with the Arab nationalists, who
will then have about the same
chance of survival as a naked
man in a dark room with a grizz-1

Grip on Satellites
Belgrade dispatches seem to
leave no doubt that Tito means
to raise this issue, and to make
it a major one in his talks.
' It is noteworthy that Tito is
taking with him Vice-President
Edvard Kardelj as well as his
foreign and economic ministers.
Urges "Different Path"
Kardelj, Tito's most trusted
aide, is perhaps the leading pro
moter of the theory that "dif
ferent paths to Socialism" are
possible in Communist ruled
countries. That is, that blind
obedience to the Kremlin line is
not necessary.

Union for three weeks. It is his
first visit since he went to see
Stalin in May, 1946. It is obvious

says it has shortcomings but its
advantages outweigh its harmful
provisions.
I '. suppose that is as, good a
comment as any. After all, as
everyone knows, it isn't a farm
bill. It's a bill designed to snare
strategic farm state votes in a
critical election year.
And it IS a better bill than the
one Ike vetoed.
TNCIDENTAL information:
It costs the city of Los An
geles more than two million dol
lars a year to arrest drunks. And,
according to Superior Court
Commissioner Edward Nichols,
more . than . half of the arrested
LA drunks are repeaters.
Hmmmmm. It sounds like they
ENJOY being 'arrested, doesn't
it?
Tti'ORE incidental information:
Los Angeles has nearly twice
as many arrests' for drunkenness
as San Francisco. In the last
year of record, the capital of the
Southland tossed 80,490 souses
into the. clink whereas the Big
Town of the Bay area incarcerat
ed only 42,307 of them.
rriHAT raises this question:
-1- Do more people get drunk
in Los Angeles than in San Fran
cesco? And if so, why? Do people
down there take to liquor as a
surcease from the frustrations
involved in finding ' their way
from one freeway to another? '
Or is it the smog?
AR-
Does LA just ARREST more
of em when they get lit? .
You can't gauge the morals of
a town, you know, by the num
ber of arrests. The most immoral
city in the world MIGHT NOT
ARREST ANYBODY.
"RACK to politics:
President E i s e n hower ap
points Fred Seaton, who has
been a member of the White
House staff serving as deputy
assistant to the President in
charge of administrative affairs
and is a former senator from
Nebraska, as secretary of the in
terior to succeed Douglas Mc
Kay, who resigned from the cab
inet to . become the successful
Republican candidate for senator
from Oregon to' oppose Senator
Morse in November.
Oddly enough, Senator Morse
APPROVES Seaton's appoint
ment. He says in Washington
this morning:
"I have always considered Sen
ator Seaton to be a fine public
ly bear. But here in Damascus,
as in Cario, the emotions that
are driving these Arab patriots
to serve the Kremlin's purposes
are so strong and so inflamed
that they never pause to think
soberly about the dangers ahead.
As .- long as British Middle
Eastern policy is largely based
on despair, while American Mid
dle Eastern policy is a minus
quantity, the Kremlin's plan for
the Middle East can be expected
to go forward from success to
success.

Tito seems to have nothing to

TTOW come?
Senator Neuberger lets the
cat out of the bag. He says:
"I am very pleased the Presi
dent has repudiated the policies
of Ex-Seoretary McKay and has
gone completely outside the dis
credited interior department to
obtain a new head for that de
partment." He adds:
"The naming of Mr. Seaton
from entirely outside the interior
department is endorsement of
the belief that the McKay regime

rpHE politics of it is this: .
The big reason for voting lor
McKay as senator from Oregon,
(outside the accepted fact that
he is competent and able and
experienced) is the fact that he
is a devoted supporter of Presi

How About Pond?
To the Editor: All this talk of
the new highway; spoiling good
farm land and orchards! Has .
anyone wondered how much
farm land and orchards have
been .done away with out north
of town to make room for the
new mill pond?
. And how-about all the water
to fill this pond? We small farm
ers across the highway from the
pond have been trying to get ir
rigation water for years with
out success..
