SALE MITE
Globe Trotters
By Bobbi Kuss
• ’ The: top of . a white, dome on a
white house, in the,,White case re
mains a focal point on this whirling
globe on whilh we live. The Harry
Dexter White case after an airing
in the Senate caucus room with
Attorney General Brownell and
FBI Chief Hoover testifying has
become no longer a factual debate
over whether former President
Harry S. Truman knowingly pro
moted espionage acts by keeping
Harry D. White in his employ.
It has brought to the foreground
a much bigger political issue—one
of a color other than “white”—Reds
in government! 1,456 employes
have been separated from Federal
Government payrolls since ’53 on
the grounds they are security risks.
Eisenhower says the issue will be
only a memory by next year—The
other side says Reds in government
will be a big factor in the 1954
congressional elections.
Republican Senator Joseph Mc
Carthy isn’t finished with his in
vestigations by a long shot (he
said so in his speech to the nation
in defense of Truman’s derrogatory
use of the word “McCarthyism”)
This fact of the issue boils down
to Republican Eisenhower vs. Re
publican McCarthy. (During his
campaign Ike said his aims were
■parallel to those of McCarthy—but
his method was different — What
now?) And the Democrats with
still other methods 1 The elections
next year will certainly prove in
teresting (Thanks to a “White
ghost”?)
Latest global controversy—t’wixt
U. S. and Canada over Igor Gou
zenko, former Soviet clerk who ex
posed Communist espionage (1945)
in West and who is now a Cana
dian citizen protected and guarded
against NKVD Soviet agents by
his new country.
Gouzenko wants to aid the U. S.
Senate Internal Security Subcom
mittee by presenting facts on pre
sent Soviet espionage in the West.
Canada is storming against “Mc
Carthyism in Canada” and has im
plied removal of Gouzenko’s pro

. (See “U. S. News and , World
Report”, Nov. 27, to learn how in
twenty years since one little Com
munist cell started in Washington,
the U. S. lost its ally, China; its
big secret, the atom bomb; and its
entry to Eastern Europe — Losses
which were big gains for Russia,
the country for which the Wash
ington spies were working.)
The French Assembly . . . ex
pected to ratify EDC, with its plans
for a six nation European army
and German rearmament, though
still a little dubious on the German
rearmament. As ex-premier Dala-
dier said, “the German soldier has
invaded France three times in the
last seventy years . . . the Russian
not since the duel opposing Czar
Alexander to Emperior Napoleon.”
Russia . . . setting up G. U. M.
(Russian initials for Principal De
partment Store) giving substance
to her impressive promises of sharp
rise in production of consumer
goods, widespread popular goods,
and agricultural produce. This
seems to be an effort to right the
lop-sided economy of the Soviet
Union which has produced arms at
great speed, but allowed light in
dustry and farm production to fare
for themselves.
Closer to our global domain . . .
Bermuda, the island paradise off
the coast of South Carolina, the
scene of a conference between
Eisenhower, Churchill, and France’s
Laniel on Friday, Dec. 5. The
question of a Big Four meeting
will be among the matters of the
parley.
Pakistan in the Middle East . . .
perhaps our best friend between
Turkey and the Philippines, wants
U. S. re-equipment of its 250 thou
sand man army to the tune of
$250 million; to the tune of pos
sibly angering India against whom,
as well as Russia, Pakistan would
be arming herself. On the other
hand such a move might spur other
Moslem nations to join a long-
stalled Middle East Defense Or-
