This * * Week * * in fflllnj [WASHINGTON nflll_L
0 President Eisenhower's admin
istration made its second big step
back to free-market economy by
scrapping federal price controls ov
er thousands. off items, including
e 8Tgs, poultry, soaps, gasoline, crude
ad, newsprint, and all rubber prod
ucts.
This move has long been advo
cated by many economists and legis
lators who contend that price con
trols have out-lived their usefulness.
This doesn’t mean, however, that the
move has the unanimous approval of
Washington. There are many who
are watching with skepticism, if not
with actual alarm.
Their great fear is runaway prices.
There have been a few price in
creases, but nothing to become
alarmed about. There may even be
further, price increases before a
leveling off and final stabilization is
assured.
0 President Eisenhower, in refus
ing to spare the lives of Julius and
Ethel Rosenberg, convicted of es
pionage against the United States,
pointed out that their crime “far ex
ceeds that of taking the life of an
other citizen; it involves the delib
erate betrayal of the entire nation
and could very well result in the
death of many thousands of inno
cent citizens.
As this is written, the date of
their execution has not beer set. It
could be delayed by another appeal
to the U. S. Supreme Court. It is
generally believed, however, that Ei
senhower’s action eliminates any
chances off clemency for the couple.
If executed the Rosenbergs will be
the first American civilians to pay
with their lives for the crime of es
pionage against the United States.
And it is a certainty that they
will be hailed in Communist coun
tries as martyrs. There has been
wide agitation among Communists the
world over for clemency for the
couple who contend they are inno
cent.
0 To the casual observer the ad
ministration's proposed legislative
program does not appear over-ambi
tious. Many have overlooked one
item on the agenda that may cause
considerable debate—or an all-out
fight—in the halls of congress.
The item is statehood for Hawaii.
And the reason it may cause battle
is practical politics. Hawaii is nor
mally Republican in national elec
tions. This in itself would not cause
the fight if Alaska, considered Dem
ocratic, were not also seeking state
hood.
The result is, then, two territor
ies seeking statehood, one voting Re
publican and one Democratic, with
the President giving his approv
al to the Republican voting terri
tory—in this case Hawaii. Too much
hasn’t been said about- the problem
as yet, but there is a feeling that
Democrats in congress will make the
issue one on which they will make
their strength.
0 In his report to the nation on
his trip to Europe, Secretary of
State Dulles expressed hope that

the next few weeks will bring “con
crete evidence” of progress toward
a si5wra * ion European Defense Corn
munity treaty.
His report was startling in that
c he strength of Europe today is not
what the average citizen had be
lieved. He said failure to unite ‘‘has
so weakened the Western European
countries that today no one of them
could offer strong resistance to the
Red, Army.”
He added that “nothing that the
United States can do will ever be
enough to make Europe safe if it
is divided into rival national camps.”
From his observations one is in
clined to believe that the next 60
days may decide the eventual fate of
Europe and perhaps the entire
world.
