Much Anti - American
Sentiment In Europe
LONDON —dp— There is a ris-,
ing sentiment of anti-Americanism :
in Europe these days, a feeling
that comes pretty close to down
right dislike of the Yanks.
Its symptoms are a scuffle In
a Piccadilly bar. a speech by the
French president, the dour Ger- |
mans walking by the U. S. Post
Exchange in Frankfrut a defiantly
uproarious welcome to Charlie
Chaplin, a brush with Margaret
Truman’s bodyguards in Stockholm, j
The feeling fits in perfectly witlj
Russia’s newly intensified tech- ,
nique of splitting America from her!
allies, and many of the incidents j
are magnified—and some inspired- |
by the Communists.
When a city the size of England's
Manchester was declared off!
bounds to American soldiers, it j
brought home to thinking Britons |
and Americans alike the serious-1
ness of a situation that has de
veloped with the stationing of some
70,000 U. S. airmen in this little '
island.
TROUBLE NOT CONFINED
That ban, now lifted, came after |
a clash between Gls and a gang:
of ruffians. But the trouble is far'
from confined to Manchester and
the conduct of some young Ameri
can soldiers has unquestionably
rubbed the British the wrong way.
Heavily rouged, teen-age English
girls, on the arms of Gls with far
more money than British boys can
spend, swarm through downtown
London at night. One overzealous
American sentry at London Airport
recently held at gunpoint for an
hour an airport employe who un
thinkingly approached a U. S. mili
tary transport plane.
Another big American base is
near the university town of Oxford
and there Anglo-American relations
are not to happy. Gls recently
stopped cars on the highway near
the base after some office equip
ment was discovered missing.
Two high-spirited American jet
fighter pilots homed in on the
Farnborough air show recently and
stunted to the delight of the crowd
who thought they were British and
to the anger of authorities who felt
it was a dangerous bit of un
scheduled horseplay.
OPEN RESENTMENT
France recently has shown open ;
resentment, more of U. S. policies i
than any personal clashes of peo- '
pies. Speaking at the dedication of 1

which overlooked bloody French
sacrifices in Indo-China, played up
to the Germans because France |
was thought to be weak-spined and
interfered ignorantly in French
.colonial policy in North Africa.
The open-armed reception given
Chaplin both in Britain and France
was not nearly so much an honor
ing of the man and artist as it was
a rebuff to what both countries
think has beeen American kicking
of the "underdog" —a role they
feel they themselves are playing.
The touchiness of Italians was
manifested when U. S. Adm. Rob
ert B. Carney hastily summoned 3
press conference in Naples to
soothe ruffled feeling over an
American magazine article that
suggested Italy W’as a "sphagetti”
soft link in the European defense
chain.
Most thinking West Europeans
leaders and people alike de
plore this anti-American tendency.
They realize how r much is at stake
in the unity of the Old World with
the Newu But few will deny that
it exists.
CAMPAIGN DIDN'T HELP
It was not helped by the level to
which the American presidential
campaign sank. Many Americans
here experienced during that time
an embarrassed reluctance by their
hosts or guests to discuss a cam
paign in which the personal honor
and finances of candidates for high
office was brought into the public
question.
The causes of this surge of anti-
Americanism are many the re
sentment of “poor relations” to
ward a rich uncle; the friction that
always comes with the stationing
of troops in a foreign land; a clash
of .cultures, natures and manners;
a resentment at being caught in
the giant nutcracker of the U. S.
and Russia.
The solutions are not so apparent
but the facts cannot be blinked
away and many Europeans are
worried that, with Communists
gleefully egging it on. the situation
may grow worse.
ROYALTY CROWNED
A Hallow'een carnival was held
at Boone Trail school. The Senior
King and Sophomore Queen were
crowned. They were: Betty Mae
Wood and Glenn McCormick. The
baby MacDonald received a cup
as the winning baby. The proceeds
went to purchase Boone Trail aud
itorium curtains.

Youth Relates How
He Killed Parents
MIAMI (IPi Claus Eischen, the steel-nerved youth
who confessed killing his mother and father while they
slept in their home last month, nonchalantly waived ex
tradition today and was turned over to New Jersey de- j
tectives.
The 16-year-old youth will be re
turned to Kearny, N. J.. this week
to face trial for the first degree
murder of Mr. and Mrs. Hans
Eischen.
U. S. Commissioner Roger Davis
explained the rights young Eischen
has in federal court, and asked him
whether he desired a hearing here
or in New Jersey.
With a wave of his hand, the
bespectacled youth answered. “I
would like to have a hearing in
New Jersey.”
Davis then set a routine bond
of SIO,OOO on the federal charge of
fleeing to avoid prosecution, and
ordered the district attorney’s of
fice to prepare papers immediately
turning Eischen over to three New
Jersey officers.
SORRY ABOUT MOTHER
“I’m sorry I killed my mother
but I’m not too much sorry for
my father," he said. "Because of
the affair my father was hav
ing with that woman. I knew my
father was seeing another woman
but I thought it was for business.”
A 31-year-old woman identified
as Miss Bridget Kurwitz of New
. j York was booked Saturday as a
| material witness in the case, Kear
■ ny police had reported. ;
Eischen said he read “about that
woman” in the Miami newspapers j
■; yesterday and this morning.
"The woman said my father was
. going to get a divorce from my j
: mother and they were going to get l
i married. I don’t feel to bad and
I don’t feel too good.”
! TELLS OF NIGHTMARE
' “All I know is that the previous
I night I had a nightmare. I woke
■ up and took the gun and loaded it
' and shot them. I shot my mother
’ first. I think my father made a
noise before I shot him. I shot only
twice.
“I went back to my room and
' put on my clothes and I went down-1
stairs. It’s all blank for the next
eight hours. I don’t remember driv
’ j ing off.”
I I A New York reporter asked him I
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, NOVEMBER 12, 1952
about two hunters who were found 1
slain near Tuxedo Park. N. Y.. last
month.
"I don’t know what happened
during that period I was blacked
out,” Eischen replied. "I came to
between 2 and 3 o’clock in the
afternoon while driving.”
"I went back in the bedroom and
got some money out of my
mother’s purse and my father’s
wallet. I’m not sure how much
about $l3O.
"I sold a set of drums and slept
in our house that night. I took our
car and left the next day."
