Today and
By Walter
TH WILL TO NEGOTIATE
Ai was expected by the auth
ert of the NATO communique,
t h Soviet government has
promptly rejected their proposal
t o n e g otiate
about disarma
ment. This
may give some
satisfaction to
those who be
lieve that to
negotiate with
the Soviet Un
ion is a danger
klLyltmJ to the western
Walter Lippraano world, and
that our security and salvation
lie in a steadfast and stony re
fusal to be drawn into serious
diplomat conversations.
I think that those who take
this view are greatly mistaken,
and that if we persist in making
a policy of not wanting to nego
tiate, we shall do incalculable
and perhaps irreparable harm
to our position in the world. For
this policy, which is incarnate in
Mr. Dulles personally, is tanta
mount to granting the Soviet
government a monopoly on the
issue of peace. It is a guarantee
that we ourselves will not com
pete in this field, that the Soviet
government can make any pro
posals it chooses with no real
risk of having its hand called.
The policy carries with it a built
in certainty that the United
States will accept the onus in
the eyes of mankind of having
made it inevitable that all peace
proposals come to nothing.
It is not often that a great

power makes it so easy for its
rivals.
rpHE next three years or so will
be a critical time for the
NATO alliance. On the most op
timistic assumptions, it will take
at least that long to begin to
close the gap which has been
opened up between the rate of
Soviet and the rate of American
military technological progress.
It is almost certain that in the
years immediately ahead the
gap will become wider rather
than narrower. This will mean
that for a critical period our
European allies will feel them
selves to be more and more vul
nerable. The coming three years will
also be a period of great politi
cal uncertainty among the lead
ing NATO powers. President
Eisenhower has three more
years to serve, and then there
will be a Presidential election.
At the very least, despite the
best efforts of Mr. Hagerty, it
is only too evident that the Pres
ident has very limited reserves
of energy. In Great B r i t i a n,
there will be an election during
this critical period. In Germany,
Dr. Adenauer is not getting any
younger. There is no telling what
will happen in France.
THE chances are better than
even that in the course of
the next three years the leading
NATO powers in Europe will
become less willing than they
are now to stand where Mr.
Dulles stands. Even now, Dr.
Adenauer and Mr. Macmillan
had to insist at Paris that Mr.
Dulles do something to disguise
his inflexibility.
The real danger in the Dulles
policy is that if the United
States does not lead the Western
world in the effort to negotiate
peace, there will be an explos
ion of neutralist and nationalist
i sentiment which will shatter the

U. S. ATTITUDE WRONG
London l?i A Soviet scien
tist said today that U. S. failure
in rocket experiments stems from
the American attitude toward
science and scinetists in general,
Moscow Radio reported. The
broadcast quoted an article in
the journal New Times by a
Prof. Pobedonstev in which he
claimed Americans think it is
better to recruit scientists from
other countries instead of train
ing them.
alliance. What we are doing un
der Mr. Dulles' domination of
our foreign policy is to renounce
the political leadership of the
Western Alliance. We are aliena
ting the confidence and affection
of the peoples of the alliance.
We are preparing the way for a
political crisis in which it will
be each nation for itself, and
the devil take the hindmost.
TN SAYING this, I have no il-
lusion whatsoever that an
over-all general settlement can
be negotiated with the Soviet
Union, now or in the foreseeable
future. On the contrary, I feel
sure that no such general settle
ment is in prospect.
What may be possible is a
series of limited, localized, spe
cific agreements made one
at a time, quietly and carefully
negotiated. It should be the as
sumption of our foreign policy
that agreements of this kind are
possible. We should proclaim
the assumption through someone
who believes that they are pos
sible. And on that assumption
we should then be steadfast and
persevering.

Father Relents;
Girl Undergoes
Appendix Surgery
Richmond, Ind. (IPi A little
girl was in good condition today
following an emergency appen
dectomy performed when her
father relented in his religious
opposition to medical care.
The father, Arthur Pippen,
40, had resisted for about three
days against pleas by authori
ties to permit a physician to
treat his daughter, Judy, 11, for
acute appendicitis.
Instead, Pippen, his family
and other members of the "Full
Tabernacle of God" religious
sect prayer almost continuously
to save the life of the blonde,
blue-eyed girl.
Pippen was persuaded to per
mit . the operation Thursday
night when authorities instituted
legal action to make Judy a
ward of the court, which would
pave the way for medical treat
ment. Earlier Thursday Pippen had
allowed doctors to examine Judy
at Reid Memorial hospital. They
warned Judy's appendix might
burst within hours and she
might not live through the night.
Despite the prediction, Pippen
insisted on taking the girl back
home to resume praying for her
life.
But Pippen stood firm in his
beliefs until Sheriff Edward
Cordell arrived with a summons.
The summons ordered Pippen,
a foundry worker, to appear in
court today for a hearing on the
girl's custody.
"Then the law wants to take
her to the hospital?" Pippen
asked the sheriff.
"It does," Cordell replied.
"My church preaches that we
must obey the law," the father
said.
Word was flashed immediate
ly to the hospital and Dr. P. S.
Johnson was given 10 minutes
to get ready for the surgery.
The operation lasted more than
one-half hour.
