This is particularly true in relations to Korea and Indochina with regard to which our officials have spoken excessively but actions concerning which have been implemented cau tiously. In assuming leadership of an al liance or a coalition, a nation m>ist risk greatly. Leadership doe* in volve negotiation and understand ing, but there comes a moment of decision when the alternatives are do or don’t. At such a moment, those who assume leadership must have the courage of whatever con victions they hold or they will not be followed. This undoubtedly has been John Foster Dulle’s difficulty at Geneva where, no matter what the explanation, Molotov assumed leadership and authority. At the Berlin Conference, it was agree on February 18 that the Po litical Conference concerning Ko rea should be held at Geneva on April 26. This conference was to deal principally with Korea, but actually Korea has become a side issue. These are the words of the resolution: “Propose that a conference of re presentatives of the United States, France, the United Kingdom, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the Chinese People’s Republic, the Republic of Korea, the People’s Democratic Republic of Korea, and the other countries the armed for ces of which participated in the hostilities In Korea, and which de sire to attend, shall meet in Gene va on April 26 for the purpose of reaching a peaceful settlement of the Korean question....” Omitted from the participants are Japan and Formosa, who. while . they played no part in the Korean ) War, are Inevitably important in) any. settlement. Formosa stturl to send troops to Korea but was re jected by the United States. Japan Is particularly vital because the thrust Into Korea was aimed at the eventual conquest of Japan and also because if Russia and Ja pan ever come to blows again it will be over Korea and Manchuria. The Korean issue has been more or less sidetracked and there seem to be few prospects that a “peace ful settlement of the Korean ques tion” will be reached at Geneva. Until a Korean settlement is con cluded. no matter how. long that takes, there Is always danger that war will again break out In Korea The Indochina problem was in cluded In the resolution of Febru ary 18 but as a secondary matter. This is the wording. “Agree that the problem of re storing peace in Indochina will also be discussed at the conference, to which representatives of the United States, France, the United King dom, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the Chinese People’s Re public. and other Interested states will be invited.” The Invitation of the Chinese People's Rep bile (Red China) was a compromise with Soviet Russia and made the conference possible. Although the following paragraph was added as an escape clause, it fooled no one: “It is understood that neither the invitation to, nor the holding of, the above-mentioned conference shall be deemed to imply diploma tic recognition in any case where it has not already been accorded.” When Chou En-lai came to Gen eva he asserted himself, holding the ace-card that if he walked out of the conference, so would So viet Russia. As a matter of fact,. he maneuvered himself into being an Inviting power for a negoti ation between Vietnam and Vlet minh, which means that while Red China Is not on the rotating presi dency of the main meeting, Chou will probably preside over these subordinate meetings. This delicate arrangement may mean nothing In the United States: in Asia it will be accepted as an Mcknowtodpement of Nfed China ae a great power with Chou En lai photographed as a presiding officer. It means “face" and “face”' is very significant among Asiatics. In the efforts of Red Chi na to conquer or to become allied witti other Asiatic states, “face” Is not only a symbol of egotism; it is a valuable political weapon. The subordination of the Korean to the Indochina situation may be a result as the course of events. bjU it will surely produce new prou- Wtt DHL! ftfctfme, OUNN; KJ A “Nobody make a move—!” . T 41. WSifflOT daIURSY-GO-ROtM ICZSgi m »t«w mmi WASHINGTON Ex-President Truman was breakfasting in Wash ington last week when Democratic Chairman Steve Mitchell brought him over to o table occupied by Democrats Lee Metcalf of Montana. Don Mitchell of lowa. Jay Turner of the District of Columbia, and Ward Clark of South Dakota. The conversation turned to the McCarthy hearings and the question of whether investigating senators should get confidential information from President Eisenhower. “There is always a tendency on the part of congressional commit tees to try to get information from the executive branch of the gov ernment,” commented the ex-presi dent and ex-senator. “When I was in Congress I guess we tried to do the same thing. “But this fellow, he continued, referring to McCarthy, "is n,ot only trying to get information. He’s trying to embarrass his own party. “I was chairman of that same committee during the war.” said Truman. “In fact, I started the com : mittee which he now heads. What i we were trying to do was keep pso ' pie from stealing money by the sho- Tvelful. v k .‘‘And what ‘ I dldF was go to the White House every week or so to see President Roosevelt. I’d call attention to certain people who were doing something Improper, and Roosevelt would make a note of the whole thing. Then in a week or so I'd go back to check on what he had found out. "Sometimes Roosevelt was able to report that things were straighten ed out. But sometimes he would say: ‘Well, Harry. I haven't been able to do a thing. You’ll have to take care of that S.OJB.’ ” After the ex-president left the breakfast table. Jay Turner re marked: ’And Truman went on to the White House while McCarthy has gone to the doghouse.” DUSTED OFF FILES Senators who read the lengthy memos sent them by Attorney Gen eral Brownell showing why the high-level Justice Department con ference could not be published did not know that most of the Repub lican memo was actually written by the Democrats. “All Brownell had to do was reach Into the files and dust off that memorandum,” commented former Attorney General Howard McGrath, who served under Tru man. “We had that memo in the files for years. All Brownell had to do was change a few words and bring it up to date." Note The memo went back to the days of George Washington In CUTIES |r> ; .v* it |** | * £# a t • • *&£;•' /.Vi 2 f.i- Y showing why presidents of the Uni ted States did not have to reveal confidential matter to Congress. “VICE PRESIDENT FOR MCCARTHY” Most Democrats agree, at least privately, that President Elsenhow er has the right to ban testimony about the high-level Justice De partment conference on Joe Mc- Carthy. Furthermore, few Republi cans, except for the ardent Mc- Carthy rooters, will privately disa gree. For every president must reserve the right to have advisers confer confidentially, and the fact is that various extremely important con ferences hav.e been held both at the Justice Department and the White House regarding the biggest political pain-in-the-neck Eisen - hower has developed—the Irrever ent, uncontrollable, unpredictable senator from Wisconsin. That man who officiated at ma ny of these conferences was Depu ty Attorney General William Ro gers, likeable, able, but an appeas er as far as McCarthy Is concerned. Rogers first got to know McCar thy when he, Rogers, was counsel! for the McCarthy Investigating committee when’ It was headed by kindly, fairminded Clyde Hoey, late senator from North Carolina. Just as CBS has a vice president to worry about the unpredictable Arthur Godfrey, so the Elsenhower Administration has had almost a full-time man to worry about Mc- Carthy. Chief difference is that Godfrey makes money for CBS. McCarthy makes headaches. Rogers has spent hours with Mc- Carthy, has had him come out to his home in the evenings, once went all the way to Miami to try to work out a compromise. Rogers has done everything under the sun to get along with McCarthy. Tile only thing he hasn't done Is stand up to him until quite recently. Hils week, however, he learned that appeasement doesn’t pay when dealing with dictatorial minds. For when the White House and the Justice Department ruled against publication of testimony regarding the high-level conference, McCar thy went out of his way to knock the man who had befriended him. He accused Rogers of “cooking up a smear.” Note—ls Eisenhower let Army Counsel Adams testify about the much-publicized conference at the Justice Department, It would open the door to testimony of other high-level conferences—and there have been plenty of them. HITTING HOUSEWIVEB The natural gas companies have been slipping so many rate tncreas- ♦ The ♦ WORRY CLINIC By Dr. George W. Crane Winning athletic coaches must use good psychology. For the proper morale can thus spell the difference between success and defeat. So inject more motiva tion Into practice sessions by adopting the suggestions below. Change them from dreary "so lo” affairs into enjoyabe compe tition, and get more girls out to cheer the boys on. By DR. GEORGE W. CRANE Case L-316: David, aged 17, Is our youngest child. Last fall he started his senior year at South Shore High School in Chicago. "Dad, I think I’ll go out for bas ketball this year, Instead of swim ming,” he said at the dinner ta ble. "But why deseVt your swimming?” I protested. "You were good at that and won your letter last year and you have a dandy coach. "Besides, you have prospects for s great team and might take the city championship in Chicago.” “Oh, swimming is dull,” he ar gued. “You Just spend every after noon swimming your own event or hanging on to the side of the pool for 30 minutes and kicking stead ily to develop your legs. “That’s monotonous! But basket ball practice Is fun, for we play games between the squads and thus enjoy the practice itself. “Besides, our swimming pool Is so cold during the winter that we fellows hate to go down there. We sit around blue and covered with goose-pimples. “It wouldn't J>e so bod to h&v? the water cold, if they'd keep the air warm. But when both are cold, we cant stand it.” STRATEGY FOB COACHES David didn't voice one of his strongest arguments, for he knew that ooeds and other spectators came out for basketball, but the swimmer is almost Uke the track athlete In that few people cheer him on during his grueling practice sessions. "Why don’t you fellows start a beauty contest among the girls” I suggested, “and pick several to be I ‘mascots' or something? "Then ask your coach to split up (all the swimmers into four groups, and have each team cheered on by its own beauty queen.” “Say, we might cgll them mer maids,” he picked up my sugges tion with alacrity. “Yes, and they’d probably .bring some other girls down to root for the teams during practice. That would give you more spectators. “And the competition between the four squads would offer more fun than your present system.” > ' So he appeared partly mollified, and later went into swimming with far more enthusiasm. But the school faculty and the coaches should try to offset the fact that football and basketball naturally attract bigger audiences. The track and swimming and wrestling or gymnastic squads may drill for just as long a time, but their practice sessions are seldom patronised by spectators nor do they pull out very Mg crowds even when a meet Is finally scheduled with a rival school. ATHLETIC PSYCHOLOGY 8p the coaches should enlist the aid of ooeds. Nothing spurs a boy on to greater deeds than admiring spectators of the opposite sex. The school newspapers should al so stress track and swimming and other school teams more heavily to offset the heavy rooting for football and basketball. Also, make the actual drill more fun, which usually means Inject competition. Dreary repetition of exercises In "solo” practice is not much more stimulating than Shad ow bracing or working at a rowing machine. .It Is competition In (be daily practice sessions, plus coeds and large rooting sections, which bring out the players for those grueling drill periods each afternoon. “Consumer surveys” are now the keynote of business progress. They esn likewise be employed to bring out sullen resentment or dissatis faction among the players on school teams. es through the Federal Power Com minion that some municipalities are talking about forming gas co ops to protect themselves from price-gouging.
