o 0 O o J) MAIL TRIBUNE, MedferJ, Oregon, Sunday, July 20, 1958 Truman Says Nasser Should Be Invited to Visit U. S. (Continued from page 1) It was in that troubled mood that I recently returned from ? visit to the Mediter ranean where I -thought about the trend of events as they concerned us and the other free nations in that part of the world. I would have preferred, as I am sure the President would, to call first upon fhe United Nations for action on q the plea of President Cham oun of Lebanon for help. But under the circumstances, there was no time to deaf with the emergency,- because it was obvious that the Russians would have delayed any ac tion in the Security Council until help of any kind would have been rendered futile. - At the time of the Korean crisis, we were able to get quick action in the United Na tions because Russia was then boycotting the Security Coun cil. Today, however, the situa tion is different, with Russia again actively present and dis rupting the work of this or ganization for peace. Positive Acljon In the. recent past, I have been openly critical of some of the misjutgments and the drift in the conduct of our international policies. But this is no time to dwell on the past. The President, it is nov evident, has adopted a pflicy of positive action. Positive action, of course, redoes iroolve certain risks, but we have learned from exper ience that there are far great er risks in failure to act or in hesitation to act when we have to deal with the Soviet Union. I therefore believe that the President considering all the circumstances had no alter native than to respond to the call of the President of Leb anon to dispatch troops to that troubled country. The President is right ia proposing that American troops should be withdrawn as soon as the United Nations can make provision to send an international force to take their place. Make It Clear Having taken this action in Lebanon, I think it is neces sary that we make it clear to the Soviet government that the free world means business in its determination to stop Communist intrigue and sub version in the Mediterranean This should be done through formal diplomatic representa tion in concert with our Al lies. , ' "" Time and agaia we have seen that when the' Kremlin is convinced that we mean business and are determined to back it up with action, it will back down. This happen ed in Iran, and this happened in Greece and Turkey. Moscow once again must be reminded that we stand ready whatever the cost or con sequences to back up our commitments for peace.

Under proper con ditions, it might prove useful to a peaceful resolution ot the Middle Eastern crisis to invite President Nasser to Washing ton for a frank and friendly discussion. I wish we could "have in vited him much earlier dur ing the beginning of the Mid dle Eastern crisis. One of the things President Nasser does not seem to understand is that the hope for improvement of the lot of his people lies in his working with the West. On the other hand, if he keeps on flirting with the Russians and encourages them in their sinister campaign of indirect aggression, he stands a good chance of turning his country into a Mediterranean Hungary or Poland. Arab nationalism can have no future in the plan! of Rus sian imperialism. Nor is there any hope for a better future for th,e Arabs, on the pretense of freedom, so-called republics are set up by brutal military coups, such as occurred in Iraq. . Better Opportunity I think we would have a better opportunity to learn from President Nasser at first hand exactly what his aims are. At the same time, we ought to invite and welcome recognized Arab leaders to come here so as to give full and equal consideration to their aims and problems. ' There are many ways in which we could be helpful to the Arabs in their quest for security and freedom and a decent standard of living, and we ought to explore every op portunity to help. . I think we ought to make it clear to Nasser and other Arab leaders that the free nations of the world cannot be politically blackmailed be cause of their need for oil from the Middle East. The fact is that the free world now has access to ample oil resources, outside the Middle East from which they can supply all their industrial, domestic and strategic re quirements. Economic Disaster It would, therefore, be fool hardy for extremist Arab na tionalists to cut off the supply of oil to the West. This would result only in chaos and eco nomic disaster to them. Before anyone in the Mid dle East is tempted to risk another crisis like Suez, I hope that he will think twice, because it will not work again. I think the times are seri ous, and it is dangerous to minimize the difficulties we face. But I also think we have an opportunity to clear the air of many wrong and false assumptions in our dealings with the Middle East. We can now stand on firmer ground and seek- to follow through in a policy of dealing resolutely and realistically with the Soviet challenge in that explosive part of the world. Man's Arm Cut Oil By Freight Train Pendleton (UPD James W. Webb, 25, Albuquerque, N.M., was in critical condition in St. Anthony's hispital here Friday night after having his right arm amputated at the shoulder by a rolling freight train. Umatilla County Sheriff's Deputy Tom Smith said the accident occured just south of the community of Helix, near Pendleton. Smith said Webb apparently jumped or fell off the train and as he hit the ground the impact threw him near the wheels, severing the arm. He was found a short while later by a tractor driver, Lee Smith, who called an ambu lance and notified authorities. The deputy said three com panions were being question ed about the accident, which occurred about 3:30 p.m. U U 111 Grounded Cargo Vessel Abandoned Ketchikan, Alaska.

Stone Denies That FS Lags in Sales Portland (UPD Repre sentatives of small logging businesses heard Regional Forester Herbert Stone deny at a press, conference here Fri day that the Forest Service has lagged in listed timber sales. The "independent" logging operators maintain that na tional forests are their source of raw material. The operators, spearheaded by the Western Forest Indus tries association, recently pe titioned the Senate committee on interior and insular af fairs to investigate federal timber sales practices in the northwest. , The loggers centered criti cism on delays in announced timber sales and on the Forest Service's delay in some areas to offer for sale all the timber possible under allowable cut quotas Stone, however, reported timber sales for the North west .national forests total 3, 918,822,000 board feet for the fiscal year ending June 30.
