affairs. O u r j the avowal is not the spying

seems to be that because it is
so difficult to collect informa-
tion inside the Soviet Union
it will henceforth be our
AVOWED policy to fly over
Soviet territory, using the ter
ritory of our allies as bases.
Although the intention here
is to be candid and honest
and also to make the best of
a piece of very bad luck, the
new policy-which seems to
have been improvised be
tween Saturday and Monday
is quite unworkable.

openly in the face of the whole

i act because no nation can re-

avowed policy of another na
I tion to intrude upon its ter
ritory. The avowal of such a
policy is an open invitation to
I the Soviet government to take
the case to the United Nations,
( where our best friends will
be grievously embarrassed.

Union, can put our small ef

TRUE, one unarmed air-
airspace without the person
al command of the President
of the United States. (The
President did not personally
pack the pilot's lunch kit,
either). But does this really
suggest that some reckless
band of militarists has taken
over the foreign policy of the
United States?
Is there any rational con
tent whatever in the argu
ment that because this could
happen it follows that some
intelligence agent or colonel
could himself "set off a nu
clear war?" Do the people
who make such frantic sug
gestions know anything of
the immense precautions that
would make any such thing
literally and physically im
possible? If a gun shop sells
a .22 rifle without proper
safeguards does this prove
that anybody can walk in off
the street and buy a loaded
atomic cannon?
VyHY don't we - and our
" friends abroad - quit buy
ing the melodramatic rubbish
the Russians are putting out?
Why don't we quit reacting in
a u t omatic breast - beating?
And if the United States
government had not undertak
en the intelligence activities
it has' undertaken - and will
go on undertaking - would
we not be denouncing that
same government for being
asleep against the possibility
of another Pearl Harbor?
Significantly, the official
question to the Eisenhower
administration, the leaders of
the Democratic party, are act
ing responsibly and speaking
softly. Those now raising the
shrillest clamor about this
dreadful, dreadful administra
tion are those who only weeks
ago were intoning hymns to
t h e wonderful, wonderful
cold war policy of that same
administration.
The responsible Allied
statesmen have a plain duty
and powerful men here who
are their good friends are
going privately to remind
them of it. They ought to
speak out for a nation which
has, after all, poured out bil
lions in their defense. An al
liance has a leader who is
supported when things are
rough - or an alliance has no
leader at all.

Because the challenge has
spying, when we do it, should
be accepted by the world as
righteous. This is an amateur
ish and naive view of the na
ture of spying.
Spying between nations is,
of course, ihe universal prac
tice. Everybody does it as best
he can. But it Is illegal in all
countries, and the spy if
caught is subject to the
severest punishment. When
the spying involves intrusion
across frontiers by military
aircraft, it is also against in-
Its methods include bribery,
blackmail, perjury, forgery,
murder, and suicide.
The spy business cannot be
conducted without illegal, im
moral, and criminal activities.
But all great powers are en
gaged in the spy business, and
as long as the world is as war
like as it has been In all re
corded history there is no way
of doing without spying.
All the powers know this
and all have accepted the sit
uation as one of the hard
facts of life. Around this sit
uation there has developed
over many generations a code
of behavior. The spying is
never avowed and therefore
the government never ac
knowledges responsibility for
its own clandestine activities
If its agent is caught, the
agent is expected to kill him
self. In any event, he is aban
doned to the mercies of the
government that he has spied
upon.
The spying is never admit
ted. If it can be covered suo
cessfully by a lie, the lie is
told.
ALL this is not a pretty busi
ness, and there is no way
of prettifying it or transform
ing it into something highly
moral and wonderful. The
cardinal rule, which makes
spying tolerable in interna
tional relations, is that it is
never avowed. For that reason
it is never defended, and
therefore the aggrieved coun
try makes only as much of a
fuss about a particular inci
dent as it can make or as it
chooses to make.
We .should have abided by
the rule. When Mr. K. made
his first announcement about
the plane, no lies should have
been told. The Administration
should have said that, it was
investigating the charge and
would then take suitable ac
tion. We should then have
maintained a cool silence.
This would have left us, of
course, with the unpleasant
fact that our spy plane had
been caught. What really com
pounded our trouble, and was
such a humiliation to us, is
that before we' knew how
much Mr. K. knew we pub
lished the official lie about its
being a weather plane. Then
finding ourselves trapped in
this blatant and gratuitous lie,
we have tried to extricate our
selves by rushing into the
declaration of a new and un
precedented policy.
