East Meets West
According to the press dispatches and the tele
photo pictmes Prime Minister Nehru of India also
"likes Ike."
The two world dignitaries are shown warmly shak
ing hands and both smiling broadly, which indicates
"Ike" also likes Nehru. That should cause no surprise,
for Ike doesn't, as far as the record shows, dislike
many people.
?ut we wonder if this mutual admiration society
will continue not only through this brief conference
in Washington, but throughout the remaining years
of the present administration?
We hope it does. India needs the United States
and the U.S.A. needs India.
But if the "entente cordiale" in a personal sense
continues unbroken for any extended period of time,
it will add up, as we see it, to a minor miracle.
For while Nehru is a keenly intelligent and cul
tural cosmopolite who understands the President of
the United Slates and the psychology of the American
people, we believe there is no such keenness of per
ception as far as President Eisenhower is concerned
regarding Jawaharlal Nehru and his ancient and
somewhat baffling civilization.
And where a personal understanding is not
mutual, there is often great difficulty in maintaining
a cordial and rewarding relationship for any length
of time.
SO .WE look for no Damon and Pythias tableau as
depicted for these two national figures through
many years. But we do believe as far as the present
meeting 13 concerned, they will find a warm and
common ground in the condemnation of Soviet
Russia's brutality in Hungary, and the use of force
on the part of England and France against Nasser
and the Suez canal.
When it comes to their political and economic
philosophies, however, as well as their spiritual and
temperamental natures, these two gentlemen are,
we believe, as far apart as Rudyard Kipling's poles.
Premier Nehru is, first of all, a convinced and
dedicated pacifist. President Eisenhower is not. Both
are sincerely for the prevention of war and the pro
motion of peace as of now, but Nehru, because his
whole nature revolts against violence, under any or
all circumstances; while General Eisenhower only
because he oelieves war on a large scale would be
suicidal, as conditions now exist, and force should be
used only as a last resort.
TUR- NEHRU is also a sincere socialist, and was
heartily in favor of the Russian revolution un
der Lenin. He is still in sympathy with the basic
Marxist social purpose, but not with the violent meth
ods adopted by the monolithic and imperialistic sys
tem of the Kremlin.
Needless to say Mr. Eisenhower has no patience
with either. The very mention of the term "socialism"
makes his hearty and healthy epidermis "creep,"
and if the two men ever have to carry on a debate in
this realm, their present "beautiful friendship" alas,
will abruptly cease.
MO.' 3. Mr. Nehru is a born aristocrat, and has the
social Brahmin's contempt for "mere wealth" and
show, while his present "vis-a-vis" is a born demo
crat, a congenial extrovert, with a high regard for
the material things in life, and those who have been
able to acquire an abundance thereof.
CTNALLY "Jawa" Nehru is a mystic, a non-resistent
.Agnostic, a man whose idea of proper exercise
is not golf, but reclining contemplation and deep
breathing, for the benefit of soul and body.
It is hard to picture the hero of World War II
falling for any routine like that, or being able in any
sense to understand it. Moreover General Eisen
hower has no doubts about there being a spiritual
"God," he knows there IS, just as he believes in at
tending church every Sunday.
That sort of ritual would not appeal to the Prime
Minister of India, in fact he would, we believe, nurse
a certain allergy toward it, and in the quiet of
his study, read over the sayings and doctrines of his
late "master" and predecessor, Mahatma Gandhi, in
whose teachings he so devoutly believes.
A LL of which might be called purely personal .
'"' which it is. But personalities when they lead na
tions are extremely important in determining the
trend of world affairs, and their ultimate outcome.
We don't deny as of today the familiar Kipling
dictum that "East is East and West is West, and
ne'er the twain shall meet" is outdated. They are
meeting today in Gettysburg and will undoubtedly
meet again.
But we doubt very much if today or in the fore
seeable future, the East as represented by Nehru's
India and the west as represented by General Eisen
hower's United States, ever become brothers "under
the skin." As stated we believe Nehru understands
"we'Jike Ike" and all its connotations far better than
Ike can, or ever will, understand the representative of
India and ito ancient Hindu culture. But even so, they
have as also stated above, a common ground in devo
tion to world peace, and the more conferences like
the present one the better the chances in this turbulent
world of maintaining and advancing it. R.W.R.

East Germany Seen as Coming
Danger Spot for World Peace
By CHARLES M. MCCANN
United Press Correspondent
East Germany threatens to be
come the most dangerous area in
Europe before long.
European cap

situationmight
develop into a
a threat of
world peace.
Student un

which led to

Matter of Fact
TRIPWIRE DEFENSE
Washington No doubt the
NATO meeting from which Sec
retary of State Dulles has just re
turned served a useful purpose.
At least it got the principal part
ners in the Western Alliance
talking to each other again. And
Stewart Aisop
in the course of the talk, Dulles
heard some good news the news
that the Germans, after six
years of false hopes, are at last
going to make a contribution to
Western defense.
But Dulles heard bad news
too, and the bad news on bal
ance outweighed the good. The
bad news came from the British,
hitherto the strongest European
supporters of NATO. The Suez
misadventure and the financial
crisis which ensued have forced
on the British government two
as yet (unannounced) but ex
tremely far-reaching decisions.
The British have four divisions
stationed in Germany. These
four divisions, together with the
six American divisions, consti
tute the only real ground defense
force in Western Europe today
the French, up to their necks in
the African struggle, have less
than two divisions on the Con
tinent. HERETOFORE, the West Ger
man government has helped
to support the British forces in
Germany. Before the Suez crisis,
it was agreed that this German
defense contribution would be
withdrawn, as the West Ger
man armed forces came into
being. The sum involved is on
the order of 70 million pounds,
or around $200 million.
In American terms, this may
not seem a very big sum. But it
is a big sum in British terms, and
the financial crisis has made it
seem much bigger. The British
government has therefore de
cided that it cannot afford to
spend this money to support its
forces in Germany.
If the British hold to this de
cision, it is sure to make the
worse sort of trouble in the
NATO since the Germans are
equally adamant that they will
not support the British forces
and equip forces of their own at
the same time. But this British
decision is only the forerunner
of a much graver decision.
In brief, the Suez crisis and
the related financial crisis have
caused the British to review
their whole world position. As
a result of this review, the gov
ernment of British Prime Minis
ter Sir Anthony Eden has con
cluded that Great Britain cannot
continue to maintain its present
world commitments.
THERE must the British have
concluded, be some sharp re
trenchment somewhere. The
somewhere is NATO. The pres
ent intention is to reduce British
forces on the Continent by half,
and perhaps by more.
Such a sharp cutback in the
British contribution will shake
NATO to its foundations. It was
Sir Anthony Eden's promise to
keep four divisions or their
equivalent permanently sta
tioned on the Continent that
saved NATO when it was on the
edge of collapse, as a result of
the French rejection of the Euro
pean Defense Community.
Moreover, when the British
cut back, every other NATO
member, including West Ger
many and the United States, will
also be tempted to cut back, a
temptation very easy to yield to.
And even without a British cut
back, the NATO defense force
has hardly even a coincidental
resemblance to the force planned
when Dwight D. Eisenhower
went to Paris to take command
of the Western Alliance.
The purpose then was to cre
ate a force actually capable of
holding and hurling back an
attack by the Red Army Gen
eral Eisenhower himself talked
of creating a force of 70 di
visions and more. This purpose
has been tacitly but totally aban
doned. The real function of the
British and American forces in
Europe is not to hold a Red
Army attack, but to assure the
Europeans that Britain and the
United States would be in a war
which Russia might start.
East German Defense Minister
Willie Stoph announced on Sun
day that his government had
taken new security measures as
a safeguard against possible re
bellion. The West German government
is about as worried as are the
East German Reds over the
danger of an uprising.
The revolts in Poland and Hun
gary were welcomed through
out the Western world. But the
position of East Germany is dif
ferent. Poland and Hungary, though
Communist-ruled, are nominally
independent countries. East Ger
many, on the other hand, is a
section of a divided country.
By Jo and
Stewart Alsop
THE Anglo-American forces,
the British argue, are like a
tripwire, and the Soviets know
that they will cause a world ex
plosion if they pass over the
tripwire. To act as a tripwire,
the British further argue, you
do not need large and expensive
forces a few battalions will
serve.
The weakness in this British
argument is obvious if NATO
is to consist of only a few trip
wire battalions, the West will
have few bargaining counters in
any negotiation with the Soviets.
There may be more logic in an
other British argument that
the Soviets may be genuinely
anxious to extricate themselves,
at a price, from their unhappy
position in Eastern Europe; and
that the time has come to make
a serious effort to ascertain the
price of a withdrawal of the
Red Army.
If the price is somewhere
short of the total withdrawal of
American forces from Europe, it
might conceivably be worth
paying, if Western Europe is to
have no more than a tripwire
defense anyway.

About Juvenile Court
To the Editor: This letter is in
the interest of all mothers or
fathers who want to raise their
own children and not permit out
siders to tell them how and
when. Parents have too long al
lowed juvenile officers to order
them around about the punish
ment for their children's wrong
doings. There Is the compulsory
school law; it is one of the lead
ing factors in our supposed juv
enile courts today. Yet no one
has tried to get it to the vote of
the people.
There are non-support charges
stemming from a father's in
ability to get a job to feed his
kids. He is arrested and put in
jail.
The juvenile officer of this
county and her husband draw
nearly a thousand dollars a
month salary supposedly to help
the youth of this county. Do you
ever wonder just what she really
does to the families she gets in
her clutches?
My 16-year-old boy was jailed
three days without notice to
either his father or me for just
driving his car without a
driver's permit. We were ordered
under punishment of jail and
arrest to go to the juvenile of
fice, only to be told the boy
would remain in jail if we did
not pay.
We had to hire a lawyer to
get us out with the promise to
pay when we could.
I am expecting my 12th child.
I can hardly make it from room
to room in my own house. I have
no medical care and we barely
can make ends meet on a small
income we have.
Yet this highly paid officer, de
fender of our youths, orders me
into her office just like that. It
seems to me we had better start
watching our Constitutional
rights while we still have them,
or you too will wake up with
a gun in your back and no hope
for the future.
Mrs. Margaret Fields,
224 West Clark St.,
Medford, Ore.
There were comparatively few
Russian troops in Poland and
Hungary when rebellion broke
out there.
In East Germany, Russia main
tains an army of 22 divisions,
numbering perhaps 400,000 men.
They are really occupation
troops, because no German peace
treaty has been signed.
If a revolt oroke out in East
Germany, there is no doubt that
the entire Russian forces would
be thrown against the rebels in
an even more ruthless attack
than that in Hungary.
Adenauer Fears Revolt
It is entirely possible that
West Germans, acting as indi
viduals, might cross the divid
ing line to join in the revolt.
Even if they did not, the situa
tion would be dangerous enough.
West German Cnancellor Kon
rad Adenauer has made it known
that he fears a revolt in East
Germany could lead to a world
war.
In this, Adenauer agrees for
once with the East German
Reds.
Gerhard Eisler, No. 1 prop
agandist of the East German
regime, said in a speech in East
Berlin last Thursday:
"Whoever in East Germany
attempts to organize an uprising
as in Hungary is playing with
a third world war."
Hence the situation is that in
West Germany as well as East
Germany, no responsible leader
wants trouble
Russia May Take Action
One reason is that Russia it
self, facing the break-up of its
satellite empire, might take
some action that would start a
war.
Secretary of State John Foster
Dulles said at last week's meet
ing of North Atlantic Treaty
Organization foreign ministers
in Paris that this was a danger
ous time for the West because
the Soviet satellite system had
started to disintegrate.
West German Foreign Min
ister Henrich Von Brentano
specifically mentioned his coun
try as the most acute danger
spot because it is in the front
line of the Allied defense system.
Now dispatches from Wash
ington mention the possibility
that Russia might start a war
as the result of its difficulties.
If that happened, a revolt in
East Germany might provide the
spark.

Absentee Ballots
Decide Governorship
Providence, R. I. U.R) Re
publican Christopher Del Sesto
apparently has won the Rhode
Island governorship on the basis
of a tally of absentee and shut
in mail votes.
With 365 votes to be counted,
Del Sesto was leading the in
cumbent Democratic governor,
Dennis J. Roberts, 194,848 to
194,339, a 509 vote lead.
The Democrats have chal
lenged the constitutionality of
the 10,000 civilian mail votes
and the contest probably will
wind up in the State Supreme
court.
Del Sesto will be the first
Rhode Island Republican gover
nor in 18 years. He is the son of
Italian immigrants and won his
apparent victory on, the mail
ballots.
fn The Day's
The proposed new State ojf
Shasta, to be ' carved out of
Northern California, is getting a
big play in the nation's news
papers. Even the staid Wall
Street Journal, whose various
editions are read by solid busi
ness people all over the country,
editorialized on' it the other day.
If all the clippings from .all the
papers could -be gathered to
gether in one place, they would
paper the walls of several of the
largest rooms in the new capitol
building if the State' of Shasta
ever got that far.
It is fairly obvious trlat the
writers of these pieces look
upon the proposed new state as
just another gag, and they want
it understood that their tongues
are in their cheeks as they write.
So most of the stuff that has
been printed and broadcast
is On the flippant side.
T WOULDN'T want to quarrel
with this attitude, but I would
like to make- it plain that this
State of Shasta business Vis its
serious side. o
If you want to know how
serious it is, drive down through
the Owens valley. There is m
area that LOST ITS. WATER.
It lost its water because it didn't
put up enough of a fight IN
TIME.
These Nor'thern California
counties the counties where the
bulk of California's water orig
inates want to make sure that
in the reshuffle of California
water that is coming up they
don't lose their fair share of the
water that ORIGINATES withio
their borders.
This proposed new State of
Shasta dramavizes their convic
tion that they must protect their
share of their own water a a?y
cost.
THIS is the situation:
Two proposals for the dis
position of water rights in the
counties of origin in Northern
California are under discussions
One plan would recommend a
constiutional amendment' to de
termine how much water from
each watershed of origin woulo?
be needed ultimately in that
area and how much could be,
exported.
An alternate recommendation
calls for an amendment to the
state water code, giving the new
water rights board the authority
to decide "how much water
should be reserved to the coun
ties of origin. . . o
THIS is the point that worries
these far northern counties:
The bulk of California's water
originates within THEIR bor
ders. Water is- wanted-r-in al
most limitless, quantities by
practically all the -rest of the
state.
. These counties where the bulk
of the state's water originates
have only a tiny fraction of he
voting power of the state of Cali
fornia. They presently hva pri-f
oritv in the use of the water
that falls in the form of raifu
or snow in their area. What will
happen to them if their water
is RE-DIVIDED' on the basis of
local self-interest and VOTES?
Every time they ask them
selves that question they think
of Owens Valley.
rPHESE far northern counties
are not dogs in the manger.
They want only their fair share0
of the water that originates with
in their boundaries. They are
perfectly willing to share their
SURPLUS with the rest of their
state.
But who knows NOW what
the ultimate water needs of these q
counties will be? Consider this
simple fact: These counties have
large , stands of timber Suitable
for pulping. Pulp and pfcper
plants require AMPLE water.
Without ample water supplies,
there can be no pulpand paper
plants.
