An institution named the

in Dayton and is still in ex

The occasion for the Balti

opening last week of a play.
“Inherit the Wind,” that
’ells the story of the Scopes
trial. The Sun’s reviewer
says:

bit of cutting, and possibly
a speeding up of the action
here and there, ’lnherit the
Wind’ is on the whole fasci

if one car judge by the ova

I HAVE JUST FINISHED listening to Adlai Steven,
son’s radio talk on the Chinese off-shore islands. It is
1 with some reiuctar.ee that I anr. forced to agree with him
that we should give up the islands to the Communists and
1 take a firm stand on Formosa itself.
There are advantages to retaining the islands of Matsu
and Quemov. but the disadvantages seem to far outweigh
them at this time. The advantages, just to keep the record
clear, are these: (11 Militarily, or tactically, maintaining
outposts close to enemy territory is smart business. On a
battlefield of smaller scale, we do the same thing: estab
lish what are known as “outposts.” “outguards,” or “Ik.
ter.ing posts” in no-man’s-land to keep close
on enemy activities and also to sene as an early-warning
system to alert us to enemy attacks; (2) Psychologically,
refusing to yield again to Communist aggressive pressure
gives us stature in the eyes of (some of) our friends and
our enemies. Conversely, retreating from Matsu and
Quemov (after our withdrawal from the Tachens, and
with the memory of our defeats in Korea and Indo-China
still fresh) would cause us to appear to be practicing ap
peasement, and. in the oriental idiom, to lose face.
However, to agree with Mr. Stevenson, the United
States would be foolish to run the risk of starting World
War 111 (atomic variety) and alienating many of its
allies in the bargain by being stubborn over a pair of
rocky little islets of dubious military value. The islands
are historically (and, to be sensible about the matter,
geographically) part of the China mainland, whereas For
mosa was annexed by Japan in 1895 and remained a part
of the Japanese empire until the end of World War 11.
In going along with Mr. Stevenson on the off-shore
islands, I hope he will continue to maintain his position
in regard to Formosa itself. To give up Matsu and Quemov
would seem to be good, common sense. To retreat further,
to fail to defend Formosa with every weapon and military
force at our disposal, would be appeasement. And I feel
I have a right to make the latter statement, since I can
predict with a rea-onable amount of certainty that if
American ground forces are committed in such a battle
I will probably lie among them.
LEGISLATIVE NOTEBOOK: Those little green
.-tamps you collect down at Berman’s and in a few.other
places in town have weathered the Raleigh storm, thanks
to an extremely effective pressure campaign brought to
bear on member? of the General Assembly. The bill to
regulate (and, in effect, discourage) use of the stamps
was killed by a House Judiciary committee Tuesday morn
ing. Re the pressure campaign, Sen. Claude Currie of
Durham showed me a number of letters he had received
concerning the stamps—many of them addressed in the
same handwriting, and many of them written by the same
person, but signed by others. An indication of a well
organized campaign which paid dividends to the green
stampers .... Sen. Ralph Scott’s Haw River clean-up bill
inspired more bad puns and strained humor than anything
which has come up in the legislature this session. Prior
to its final reading in the House Tuesday, I asked radio
broadcaster Carl Goerch whether he was going to cover
the House or come over to the Senate to witness the fight
over the ‘‘Blue Bill" on cancellation of hospitalization in
surance. Mr. Goerch agreed that the Blue Bill was prob
ably the more important of the two, but he was going to
Cover the Haw River debate because ‘‘it'll raise much mote
of a stink!” And Billy Arthur ‘lowed as how he
“smell a fight” brewing over the Scott measure.
