Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
For tome time past people at
home and abroad have been look
ing to President Eisenhower for
leadership firm leadership, DE
CISIVE leadership.
Well-
HE HAS PROVIDED IT.
What he has done in Lebanon is
decisive. It has to be gone through
with. Having put our hand to the
plow in the Middle East, we can't
turn back.
Turning back would be fatal.
In Lebanon we are in the posi
tion of a man who enters a neigh
bor's premises for a WORTHY
purpose such as closing his
doors and windows to prevent
damage from an impending storm.
In the neighbor's yard there is a
dog a big dog, an unfriendly
dog, a MENACING dog. The man
. has a choice. He can go ahead, or
he can run. II he goes ahead he
may be able to bluff the dog by a
firm showing that he is there on
legitimate business, that he knows
his business and means to go
through with it, and that he isn't
reared. In that event, the dog may
back off.
If the man runs, he is CERTAIN
to get badly bitten.
Having entered the Middle East.
there are three things we must
accomplish if we are to emerge
irom the adventure with the re
spect and the confidence of the
world:
1. We must prove to the world
at large that our motives are
pure.
2. To the Arabs, we must prove
that we are not initiating a new
imperialism, with us as the boss
imperialist.
3. We must make it plain to the
Kremlin that if it starts shooting
it will wish it hadn t.
As to Job No. 3, which is the
BIG one
This morning's dispatches reveal
that the United States has COM
PLETED THE BUILD-UP of a
powerful and flexible NUCLEAR
striking force at Adana in Turkey
Adana, as you will note if you
consult your map, is only a few
minutes from ANYWHERE in the
Middle East. It is less than an
hour from the Russian frontier. It
is only a few hours from Moscow.
And-
Having established this base at
Adana
It is CERTAIN that we have
alerted ALL of our bases that
'ring Russia on every side. At
these bases there are bombers
with nuclear bombs in their bays.
All of these will be able to take
off within a few minutes after re
ceiving the command to do so.
That is to say:
THIS IS A SHOWDOWN.
We are prepared to go through
with what we have started. The
leadership the President of the
United States is providing is DE
CISIVE leadership.
We'll see what we'll see.

Lloyd, Dulles
Resume Talks
In Capital
WASHINGTON (API British
Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd
resumed his momentous u. S
talks Friday amid increasing in
dications the West may have to
learn to live with the new revolu
tionary regime in Iraq.
Lloyd, conferred at the slate
department with Secretary Dulles.
The British official had no com
ment afterward to a variety of
questions put to him by reporters.
He did say he would confer again
witn Dulles later in the day.
The White House announced
close identity ol views' was
achieved in yesterday's marathon
consultation. But behind t h e
scenes officials painted a bleak
picture of the West's chances of
ousting the revolutionaries who
seized control of oil-rich Iraq
.vionaay.
It was this seizure, Eisenhower
has said, which goaded him into
sending 5.000 Marines to Lebanon.
where the pro-West regime has
been battling rebels since mid
May. Britain ascribed the same
motivation to its dispatch of 2.000
paratroopers to Jordan yesterday
Eisenhower, with full British
support for his action, denounced
the Iraq rebels as ruthless mur
derers attacking a lawful government.
There was no sign, however, of
any U.S.-British decision on what
to do about Iraq. This, and the
burning peace-or-war question of
how the Soviet Union would react
to any new Western gambit, were
reported to be the basic issues un
der study by Eisenhower, Dulles,
Lloyd and their advisers.
Jordan's courageous young King
Hussein was described here as
determined to avenge the death of
his cousin King Faisal of Iraq at
the hands of Iraq rebels following
the star of President Nasser of
the United Arab Republic.
But British Prime Minister Har
old Macmillan publicly ruled out
any British-supported invasion of
Iraq. He told the House of- Com
mons British troops would not
attack Iraq. Further, he said Hus
sein assured him British forces
would not be used to free Jor
danian soldiers for an invasion of
Iraq.

Arabs Claim
U.S. Direct
Action Threat
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP)
The United Arab Republic said
Friday the United States had
threatened it with direct action if
U.S. Marines in Lebanon are at
tacked by troops under U.A.R.
control.
Ambassador Omar Loutfi. the
U.A.R. delegate, said the threat
was made earlier this week by
U.S. Ambassador Raymond Hare
in Cairo. He said Hare had de
clared the Marines would reply if
they are attacked.
"What is important." Loutfi
said, "is that the United States
wishes to be the arbiter of what
forces are under our control. This
inherent threat is fraught with
great consequences, f .
Loutfi spoke as the U. N. Se
curity Council neared a vole on a
series of proposals for action in
the Middle East crisis. Just as a
vote appeared imminent, the coun
cil adjourned until afternoon.
Soviet Delegate Arkady A. So-
bolev said he considered the U.S.
diplomatic warning to President
Nasser s government as a direct
threat of action.
The council cannot sit by
silence in the face of such a
threat, Sobolev said. He declared
the threat must be met by an im
mediate vote on a Soviet demand
for the withdrawal of U.S. forces
from Lebanon and British forces
from Jordan.
Sobolev insisted on top priority
for the Soviet resolution at the
afternoon session. U. S. Ambas
sador Henry Cabot Lodge prev
iously had urged the council to
vote first on an American plan
for a U.N. army to replace the
U.S. Marines.
Meanwhile, delegates expected
that the council might be power
less to act and that an emergency
session of the General Assembly
would be called.
Three resolutions to deal with
the crisis seemed headed for ob
livion in the day's Council session.
Indications were that once the
U-nation Council had failed to
agree on any action, either the
United States or the Soviet Union
would ask for a special session
and the 81-nation Assembly would
meet in a few days.
Massive U.S.
Forces Held
In Reserve
WASHINGTON (AP) The Unit
ed Stales, playing by ear its mil
itary moves in the Middle East,
so far has committed only a tiny
traction of its total available troop
strength to the area.
The proportion for the Air Force
was only a little larger.
But the show of Navy air-sea
power had mounted to imposing
proportions and branched out to
include not only operations in Leb
anon but a 50-plane sortie over
Jordan "to lot it be known the
planes were there," a Defense De
partment spokesman explained.
In the area ashore in Lebanon,
waiting to go ashore from am
phibious ships off the coast or
poised at a base in southern Tur
keywas a total of about 7.800
ground forces. Of these, approxi
mately 6,230 were Marines on the
scene or en route there for pur
poses of replacement, Total
strength of the Marine Corps is
about 190.000.
The Army so far has commit
ted one airborne battle group of
about 1,600 men. Total Army
strength is about 900,000.
The Air Force has put a com
posite striking force in position at
a base in Turkey. A striking force
is composed of about 100 assorted
types of aircraft. The composite
force is an element of the Tacti
cal Air Command. In that com
mand alone there are about 3,000
combat aircraft. This does not in
clude the aircraft of other Air
Force organizations, such as the
Strategic Air Command, which
flies almost 2,500 heavy and me
dium bombers and tanker aircraft
or the several thousand planes of
the Air Defense Command.
The Navy, by last night, had 44
ships standing along the Lebanese
coast carriers, cruisers, destroy
ers, amphibious ships and land
ing craft. This is only a part of
the 400 combatant vessels of the
Navy.

U.S. Embassy
Building Hit
By Red Mobs
MOSCOW (AP) An unruly
mob of more than 100,000 Russians
smashed 50 windows in the U.S.
Embassy Friday and pelted the
building with bottles containing
blue and green ink.
The wild demonstration against
the landing of U.S. troops in Leb
anon lasted more than three hours
before Soviet militiamen made a
determined effort to get the crowd
under control.
The smashing of windows and
the throwing of ink bottles went
on for more than an hour.
The crowd covered a 10-lane
boulevard in front of the embassy
and extended for a half a mile
in either direction.
A force of 300 lo 400 militiamen
finally began pushing the demon
strators back from the embassy
to a sidewalk on the far side of
the street.
By that time every window on
the first three floors had been
smashed and there was a scatter
ing of broken glass on other
floors up to the sixth.
A nearly-spent air gun pellet
hit a window of Ambassador
Llewellyn E. Thompson's office on
the ninth floor of the 10-story
building but failed to break the
pane.
All embassy personnel had been
ordered by Thompson to stay well
away from the front of the build
ing and there were no reports of
any injuries to Americans. Some
over-enthusiastic members of the
mob scuffled with militiamen, but
appeared to have escaped any injury.
Meanwhile, a side demonstra
tion developed at the British Em
bassy, opposite the Kremlin. The
crowd there numbered several
hundred, rowdy but not in the ugly
mood of those in front of the U.b.
building.
This crowd surged into tne Brit
ish Embassy courtyard and hung
placards. Alter letting them dem
onstrate for a quarter of an hour
or so the police shooed these dem
onstrators into the street.- .: .

BERLIN (AP) Communist-
led mobs lore down American and
British flags flying over the U.S.
and British missions in Potsdam
Friday in prolest against Western
actions in the Middle East.
Members of a mob of 2,500 East
Germans wrote "Americans Go
Home" on the U.S. banner, then
hoisted it again, the official East
German news agency ADN reported.
The mob, made up of workers
released from factories, demand
ed that Americans in the mission
come out and face them. ADN
said the American officers and
enlisted men remained inside.
Another mob later showed up in
front of the British mission and
tore down the flag there.
Official sources said the United
States and Britain almost certain
ly will protest to Russia. Under
postwar Big Four accords, the
Western allies hold Russia respon
sible for protection of their inter
ests in East Germany.
The demonstrations in Potsdam,
just outside Berlin, were part of a
reported nationwide series of such
rallies.

"Nobody worries about the Rus

That headline in the pro-government
newspaper Havadis reflect
ed the mood of Turks Friday as
the Soviet Union began its high
ly advertised maneuvers on Turk
ey s borders.
Government officials said things
looked normal.
Men in the street swapped ru
mors with their usual zeal and said
it s just like old times.
There undoubtedly was a Ultle
tension in the air but more
among the foreign colony than the
lurks.
Havadis pointed out the Rus
sians usually do not announce ma
neuvers in advance, but this time
Tass. Ihe official Soviet news
agency, took the trouble to do so.
"Thus they obviously have some
special purpose in such an an
nouncement," 'said Havadis, "and
one is to apply political pressures.
Maneuvers are far from being
the question for Ankara to worry
about.. Here we have strong
nerves."
The influential Comhuriyet said
Russia would cause World War
III by trying to send troops to
the Middle Last through Turkey
or Iran.
The chances of the Kremlin
deciding for war are very dim,"
the newspaper declared.
