MAIL TRIBUNE
'On the Brink of War'
We would quote F.D.R. as far as the Suez mess is
concerned namely:
"A plague on BOTH your houses."
With our usual weakness for the under-dog, our
sympathies for a long time have been with Israel, sur
rounded, as it is, on 3 sides by millions of warlike
Arabs, whose leaders have repeatedly proclaimed
they will never lay down their arms, or cease their
depredations until the hated Jews have been driven
into the sea, or otherwise liquidated. It is the ancient
ciy "Carthage Must Be Destroyed," all over again.
Life for that new and struggling nation for nearly
a decade must have been intolerable. They have
worked hard, made amazing advances politically and
economically, and yet have had to go to work all along
their borders, with rifles over their shoulders, in con
stant fear of an Arab attack.
Egypt has been the leading offender in this direc
tion and under Dietator Nasser and constant aid to
him in arms and planes from Soviet Russia, the people
of Israel must have been forced to desperation as they
looked over the brink of war to complete national ex
tinction. VET being members of the United Nations, they
should, of course, have appealed to that organiza
tion before starting any "preventive war," instead of
starting it first and leaving it up to their victims
through the UN to make the appeal.
Even more at fault, as we see it, because their very
existence was not similarly at stake, were the com
bined air and sea attacks by England and France on
Egypt only a few hours after a sudden and unexpect
ed ultimatum. They too violated their pledges as high
ranking members of the United Nations, by refusing
arbitration and appealing to surprise attacks and
naked force.
So we say a plague on both their houses.
OAD the Arabs accepted their defeat at the hands
of Israel some years ago and held strictly to the
terms of the armistice following it, there is reason to
believe there would have been no crisis such as the
world faces today. There was, it is time, a loss of Arab
territory, but what war since the Crusades has result
ed in no losses to the vanquished and no gains for the
victor? How about Texas

to either side in endless debate NOW over fixing the
precise blame it is about as futile as trying to deter
mine which came first the egg or the hen so he urges
prompt action not to determine who or what caused
the fire but to, with all possible dispatch put it out.
THAT sounds sensible to this department.
We also agree with President Eisenhower when
he gives action by the UN preference over a meeting
of the "Big Four" with national hatreds, resentments
and passions at such a white heat as they now are.
THE United Nations' effort may fail. But at least
1 let it be TRIED FIRST. If no satisfactory settle
ment can be reached in this way, then a meeting of
the Big Four could be called to attack the problem
from another angle.
The supreme goal in this most serious threat of
World War III since World War II ended, is not so
much what to do as to WHAT NOT to do, not to do
ANYTHING on either side that will leave the final
decision to armed force.
J70R in such case, only one thing could prevent then
an all-out war, a war of mutual world destruc
tionand that would be an agreement between the
two strongest world powers the United States and
Russia, NOT to engage in it.
To accomplish that would be a far bigger job than
Hercules ever took on. But this department still be
lieves that, thanks to the Atomic and Hydrogen
bombs, what has been termed the "Balance of Fear"
as contrasted with the old "Balance of Power"
MIGHT do just that. '
So why take the risk when handing the problem
over to the UN and giving that organization a revised
charter with teeth in it, a
well be reached
.This is not only another time to "try men's souls"
but a challenge to all members of the human race, to
control their tempers and

Sen. Mansfield Seen
Next Democrat Whip
Washington (U.R) Sen. Mike
Mansfield (D - Mont.) today
seemed assured of being named
the next Senate Democratic
whip, succeeding Sen. Earle C.
Clements (Ky.), who was de
feated in last week's election.
Sen. George A. Smathers,
mentioned as a likely successor
to Clements, announced Mon
day he would not accept the
post but was endorsing Mans
field. A similar endorsement came
from Sen. Carl Hayden (D-Ariz.)
who is in line to be president
pro tempore in the Senate which
convenes in January. He will
replace the retiring Sen. Walter
F. George (D-Ga.) as the Sen
ate's unofficial "dean."

Washington (U.R) Some
Democratic senators warned in
effect today that if the Eisen
hower administration wants a
continued bipartisan foreign
policy it may have to work
harder to earn it.
They also called for more
long-range planning to avoid
such situations as the present
Middle East crisis. And some re

administration policies.

Interim Committee
Recommends Higher
Basic School Support
Portland U.R Oregon's
Legislative Interim Committee
on Education took action on a
number of proposals here yes
terday, chief among them being
approval of a recommendation
that the state's basic school sup
port fund be raised from $80
to $120 per census child.
The proposal, passed by a four
to two vote, will be presented
to the next session of the Legis
lature.
The interim committee also
went on record as approving a
proposal which would do away
with the compulsory one-day
county teachers institute and
also voted to recommend to the
Legislature that the compulsory
18-year school age not be
lowered.
Aid Change Proposed
One other recommendation
met the approval of the commit
tee, that calling for creation of
a seven million dollar school
construction fund for the next
biennium to be distributed to
"distressed" districts throughout
the state.

In The Day's
A quick look at the world situ-
ation:
The Moscow radio warns grim
ly that Soviet authorities will
not prevent Soviet volunteers
from intervening in the Middle
East if French and British forces
are not pulled out of Egypt.
On that point, the Kremlin
may mean business. ,
THIS "volunteer" business got
its start in the Snanish re
volution which was the curtain
raiser for WW II. It was used
again in Korea. It enables Rus
sial to dabble her toes in war
without getting wet all over un
less she decides she wants to
get wet all over.
WITH both the Spanish revolu
tion and Korea in mind,
United Nations is moving with
all speed possible to put out the
Suez bonfire before it has time
to spread into a conflagration.
American military transport
planes are preparing to help air
lift the U.N. police force into
the Middle East in order to get
the policemen there without de
lay. The U.N. police squad which
will come largely from small na
tions will be assembled in
Italy, according to present plans,
and from Italy will be airlifted
to the Suez area, probably by
Swiss planes.
BRITAIN and France have pro
mised to pull their forces
out of the Suez area the moment
the U.N. force moves in. Israel
has promised to get out of the
Sinai peninsula (whifch is Egyp
tian territory) at the same time.
Egypt is non-committal as to
what she will do at the time this
is written. She is probably wait
ing for instructions from Russia.
That is the situation at the
moment. What will come of it all
remains to be seen.
MOW for a quick look at pol
itics. The big political ques
tion is what will happen in the
next congress.
Republican Senate Leader
Knowland suggested the other
day that neither the Republicans
nor the Democrats can expect
to have their own way in the
new congress. He said he be
lieves congress in the next two
years will operate pretty much
as it has operated in the past
two years.
That is to say:
After the all-important issue
of committee assignments in both
the senate and the house is set
tled, the conservatives will tend
to act together and the radicals
will tend to act together, and all
will go on more or less as it has
in the past.
That is what Senator Know
land meant.
It seems to make sense.
If we are to understand the
political situation in our own
country we must remember that
our two major political parties
are split TWO ways. Like a stick
of cordwood, they are split
LENGTHWISE of the grain and
CROSSWISE of the grain.
Lengthwise of the grain, they
are divided into Republicans and
Democrats. In election years,
when the vitally important ques-
Foreign Policy, Demos Warn
told reporters he feels that "now I
there is evidence that the ad
ministration wants a truly bi
partisan foreign policy."
Morse was present at Mon
day's closed-door briefing of the
Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee by top diplomatic and
military officials.
Members Encouraged
"I have reason to Delieve that
the State Department now rea
lizes the importance of a real
bipartisan ' policy." Morse said.
But he emphasized such a pol
icy "must involve consultation
school personnel to the meeting
to present a recommendation
for a major change in the pres
ent system of distribution of
state aid to schools.
The plan would call for the
state to underwrite the cost of
a basic educational program for
all children and have all dist
ricts levy the same tax millage.
Difference by State
In districts where the millage
did not produce sufficient reve
nue to meet the annual cost of
the basic program, the differ
ence would be made up by the
state.
The proposal prescribed that
the basic program would be de
fined as the average cost of edu
cating a child in all first class
districts. The millage necessary
to raise that amount in the
"richest" district of the state
would become the millage re
quired for all local school dist
ricts to levy.
Another part of the proposal
would call for any state funds
above what was necessary to
make up the difference between
the basic program and the mil
lage resources be distributed to
all districts, in proportion to
assessed valuation.

for all and all for one
But in the in-between years,
when it is a case of every man
for himself, the division tends
to be across the grain. Both the
senate and the house have been
organized. The committee as-
sigments have all been made.
With that out of the way both
senators and representatives tend
to act on their own on economic
issues.
rpHE result,

is a division running
crosswise of party lines, like

both sides of the crosscut line.
That, as Senator Knowland

the next congress, as it has hap

War Possibility
With North Korea
Ruled Out by ROK
Seoul, Korea (U.R) Republic
of Korea Defense Minister Kim
Yong Yoo ruled out the possi
bility of war with the Commu
nist north in a report today to
worried ROK assemblymen.
He said there was no possi
bility of an immediate outbreak
of war. Military steps taken re
cently bv ROK defense officials
were "purely defensive," he
said.
Kim and chiefs of staff of the
ROK armed forces made their
report in a 3V hour meeting
called by the ROK Assembly
The legislators said they wanted
details on a reported Communist
military buildup along the north
ern edge of the Korean demili
tarized zone and an explanation
of why all leaves were can
celled for ROK armed forces
personnel.
Kim said leaves were can
celled as a "precautionary meas
ure" . because of tension in the
Middle, East. He and the ROK
chiefs of staff also outlined a
defense plan against any Com
munist attack. Kim said the de
fense plan was completed some
time ago but was kept secret
to avoid alarming the public.
Gen. Lee Hyong Keun, ROK
Army chief of staff, told news
men Monday the number of
Communist troops massed along
the buffer zone offered no cause
for alarm, although he said
South Koreans could never af
ford to relax their guard.

WHO LOST MOST?
Washington The last ten
days will quite surely be re
membered by the ruthless old
recorder, history, as the period
ml !"" when the two
great opposing
world systems
suffered their
worst reverses
in a good many
years.
Just to ac
centuate the
positive, one
may as well
begin with the
Soviet reverse. There should be
no mistake about it. The Hun
garian people may be drowned
m their own blood (with nothing
being done to help them by
those Administration leaders
who claimed
four years ago,
that disbelief
liberation"
was a sign of
moral rotten
ness if not of
actual subver
sion), but the
Soviet action in
Hungary is also
a terrible de
Stewart Alsop
feat for the Soviet Union.
This was an action, one can
be fairly sure, that the Soviet
leaders wished to avoid. Unnap-
pily, all concessions made by
imperial powers to their depena
encies seem always to be limited
by the invariable rule of "too
little and too late."
. Since last Spring, Marshal
Tito of Yugoslavia had been
warning Khrushchev, Bulganin
and company that the Russian
position in Hungary was unten
able, and that something radical
must be done about it. But noth
ing radical was done. On the con
trary, the Soviets, like other im
perial powers before them, des
perately tried to prolong a surely
controllable and familiar colon
ial situation.
rPHAT was the meaning of the
- desperate Soviet effort to
keep Matyas Rakosi in power.
That was the meaning, too, of
the effort to promote Rakosite
stooge Erno Gero, which was
made by the Hungarian special
ists in the Soviet Presidium,
Anastas Mikoyan and Mikhail
Suslov, when Rakosi's fall be
came . inevitable. That was the
meaning, finally, of the wild ef
fort by these same men to get
a government in which Erno
Gero had at least a little remain
ing leverage, when Hungarian
popular feeling forced the choice
of Imre Nagy as Prime Minister.
It is important to recall these
episodes of past history because
they prove that Soviet judgment,
like other brands of governmen
tal judgment, can be extremely
fallible. It can be said on high
est authority that the Soviet
leaders told Marshal Tito, during
his visit to Yalta, that they were
strongly opposed to the kind of
thing that has now happened in
Hungary. It can be said, further,
that in Hungary the Soviets
would have accepted, reluctantly
but on the whole resignedly, the
kind of thing that has happened
in Poland.
But this was not what hap
pened in Hungary. Instead,
partly because of the Soviet de
laying tactics and partly because
there was no Hungarian Gomul
ka, there was an explosion at
Budapest. The record shows that
the Soviet stooge, Erno Gero,
who was reportedly and de
servedly murdered thereafter,
actually provoked the explosion
on his own initiative. He wanted
Russia's military intervention as
the only way to save his own
skin.
rpHE result was the hideous
Hungary tragedy so far in
three acts. On this tragedy the
curtain has not yet fallen as
these words are written. What
the end will be cannot be known
now, although it should be
known rather soon. What can be
known already, is only the ex
treme ugliness of the choice fac
ing the Soviet leadership.
In brief, if the Soviets are not
prepared to abandon the Hun
garians absolutely to the.ir own
devices and this is why they
have shed so much blood in
Budapest they have only two
other alternatives. One alterna
tive is to attempt a synthetic
Hungarian imitation of the Go-
Jaseob Aisoj
Lis-
peaceful solution of the Middle
East crisis.
"I'm encouraged to feel that
the problem, although difficult,
is one that can be worked out
and will be worked out,"
George said after the session.
But Sen. Theodore Francis
Green (D-R.I.), who is in line
to succeed George as commit
tee chairman in January, was
less optimistic. He said he does
not feel the Middle East situa
tion is "well in hand."
As for the administration's
Middle East policy, Green said
"I don't know that the adminis
tration claims to have any."
Republicans generally defend
ed the administration. Sen.
Alexander Wiley (R-Wis.), rank
ing GOP member of the com
mittee, said it is "ridiculous" for
the Democrats to blame U.S.
foreign policy for the present
trouble in the Middle East.
mulka government in Poland
The other is to rule Hungary by
naked force of Russian arms for
an indefinte period.
In Hungarian terms, the first
of these alternatives is fantas
tically difficult and risky. The
second is not locally difficult or
locally risky, but it has its own
built-in penalties. It means the
weakening and probably the
end of the new relationship with
Marshal Tito! It means the weak
ening and probably the end of
Soviet influence in the Western
Communist parties. It demands
the military repression of the in
dependent Polish Communist
regime, with all the family hair
raising risks' which this may en
tail. And in the long run, it also
demands the restoration of what
may be called neo-Stalinism- in
the Soviet Union proper. .
T THE moment,
the Soviet
seems to be in
clining towards the second alter
native. The pressure campaign
designed to subvert Poland's
newly won independence, began
in full force some days ago. The
question about this alternative
is not really what the United
Nations may say about it, but
what the Russian people may say
about the return of Stalinism.
Their answer will be awaited
with fear in the Kremlin.
Meanwhile, however, this
great loss in the Soviet Empire
has been counter-balanced, for
the Russian leaders, by a great
gain in the. Middle East at the ex
pense of the West. The Western
nations, too,' have suffered an
unmitigated disaster in' the last
ten days; but this other massive
tragedy is also a massive subject,
deserving separate study.
