The Washington Notebook
‘BY PETER EDSON
WEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON.—(NEA)—GeneraI of the Army
Dwight D. Eisenhower has a cute saying so the
effect that military science is one of the two oldest
professions in the world in which the amateur is
always considered better than the professional. Tke
used to guote this whenever civilian officials from
Washingion or other capitals showed up at his Eu
ropean headquarters to tell him how to rua the last
war, ;
Harg sledding in Korea and the proporals to send
U. S. troops to aid Europe have produced another
civilian crop of mrilitary experts. Drug store gen
erals, « stone colonels, barber shop chiefs of
stalf end the three C's— congressmen, columnists
and ¢ entators — all know just how the war
should be won.
“In spite all this voluntary assistance, the boys
in the Fentagon seem to have worked out a global
strategy thet makes sense. Secretary of Defense
Marshall unveiled a good deal more of this than
he would have preferred to as a general, in his tes
timony Lefcre Senate Foreign Relations and Armed
Services Committees,
VWhet the United States has been trying to do in
Europe uncer NATO -the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization—has been subject to a great deal of
misundergiending if not deliberate misinterpreta
tion. The six American divisions which General
Marshall pians to have in Europe do not constitute
any threat to Soviet Russia. It will be only 10 per
cent of the defense force which Western Europe
itself will build.
CONFESSIONS OF A DEFENSE SECRETARY
As Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts
brought out in his questioning of General Marshall,
to launch &n offensive against Russia's 175 divis
ions in eastern Europe would take perhaps 300
allied divisions. That would seemr to take care of
the argument that sending additional U, S. troops
to Europe might provoke Russia into a war,
In inverse ratio, however, the 60 divisions which
the Western European cquntries will be able to put
into the fie.d will be a potent deterrent in case the
Russians should decide to attack. This is due to the
fact that the Russian divisions of 8,000 to 10,000
men are much smaller than the western divisions.
A full strength American division, for instance,
numbers nearly 19,000 officers and men.
One other important factor in this defense plan
ning is thet the United States will depend greatly
on air anc sea power. One of the main congressional
criticisms sgainst the NATO defense plan has been
that the United States should build up air and sea
power, leaving ground force development to the
Europeans. Yet air and sea do play an important
part in U. S. defense plans for Europe,
Fortunately, the United States has not had to
disclose its air and sea power dispositions in Eu
rope to the extent that ground force dispositions
have been revealed to quiet congressional criticisms.
There have been announcements of B-29 bomber
bases established in England. More recently there
have been public announcements of negotiations for
air base rights in North Africa. But the garrison
strengths of these bases and the naval dispositions
in Mediterranean and North Atlantic waters have
not been disclosed. It can only be hoped that they
will not have to be disclosed to satisfy curiosity. .
AIR AND SEA POWER STILL TRUMP CARDS
The use of this air and sea power—particularly
naval aviation — in hammering the flanks of any
Russian aggression against Western Europe is a
most important military consideration. Further
more, air and sea power can be quickly reinforced
from the United States in case actual warfare
breaks out. There. do not have to be heavy dispo
sitions in Europe, in advance.
Ground forces on the other hand take time to as
semble and to move. One division actually in Eu
rope would be worth several divisions held in the
United States, even if fully trained and at the dock
ready to sail.
The all-important added factor is that troops on
the ground in Europe will contribute greatly to
European morale and European will to resist ag
gression if it conres.
The ability to hold an aggression is based largely
on a military doctrine known as “the diminishing
power of the offensive.” The farther an attack goes,
the weaker it must become as more and more
troops have to be dropped off to guard flanks and
rear, and as supply lines become longer.
The whole NATO defense plan is built on the
contention that a Russian offensive against West
ern Europe could be held because its power would
be greatly blunted as it advanced.
The importance of holding Western Europe with
American aid is that this is really America’s first
lh?e of defense if war is to be kept away from Am
erican shores, As General Marshall declared, if
Enrore falls into Russian hands it will open this
ea2unity to an immediate air attack.
Stalin Reminds Us Once More
You Can't Trust The Kremlin
In the interview he granted recently to Pravda,
Premier Stalin sounded very much like a faded
copy of that Russian newspaper. |
Except for his sepcial attack on Prime Minister
Attlee and the British, It was the old familiar line.
The Western nations, not the Soviet Union, are}
“thirsting for a new world war.” They are building
up armaments while the peace-loving Russians
concentrate their energies on wonderful domestic
projects for the peopie. :
The Russians do not have a big army as the West
contends, their armed forces were demobilized in
successive stages since 1945. (What are those 175
divisions in uniform, Mr, Stalin? Telegraph mes
senger boys?)
Then, too, it is the United States which is de
stroying the United Nations, and the United States
which is the aggressor in Korea, |
Strangely, Stalin added that if our leaders did
not accept the Chinese Red proposals for settle-;
ment in Korea, our forces would be doomed to de
feat. Since these armies are now doing pretty well
against the Chinese and North Koreans, who is to‘
bring about this defeat? The “unarmed,” “demobil
ized,” “peace-loving” Russians? |
Why has Stalin troubled to repeat these foolish.
lies? Some observers see it as a new attempt to
divide the Western powers. Yet the sharp skepticism |
which greeted Stalin’s professions of peace in Lon- |
don, Washington and Paris make plain that noi
Western leaders are any longer deceived by these
threadbare fantasies. |
If the Soviet premier had that aim, he has sadly
misjudged the state of mind of Western official
dom.
Very possibly he has thus erred. But his remarks
may have been designed principally for home con
sumption, The Kremlin is under constant need of
justifying to the Russian people the harsh measures
of Communist control. How better than to have the
boss talk of Soviet peace aims in tones of injured
innocence, the while he deplores the “war-like” ac
tivities of the “hostile” West?
Whatever Stalin’s purpose, he has instructed us
again on one vital matter. He has shown once more
the futility of working out a settlement of world
problems until we have the military power that
Russia will respect,
One or two observers apparently felt surprise
that Stalin sounded so much like his own lieuten
ants and propagandists. Did they imagine these men
uttered any views which he did not approve? It is
immature, wishful thinking to suppose that Stalin
is somehow more reasonable, more temperate than
the men who answer to him.
No one knows how much he believes of the elab
orate fabric of lies he wove in that interview, But
the chances are good that he believes quite a lot.
And that’s the real instruction in this event for us
in the West.
For the hard to convince, it offers evidence in
1951 that the Russians, from the top down, do not
look at the world as we do. What we think white,
they say is black, and vice-versa. We use many
words in common, but they do not have the same
meanings. o
Sit down and talk with Stalin or his shadows?
Talk about what? About the American “aggression”
in Korea, the U. S, “billionaires” who are striving
for war, the 175 Russian divisions which exist only
in American minds?
By speaking out at this time, Stalin has merely
forecast loudly the inevitable failure of the coming
four-power talks on Germany and related issues.
They think he, according to some observers, has
stressed afresh that only in the realm of action can
we deal successfully with the Kremlin,
Kid Nickel Falters

The effort ought to fail. No doubt the rising tide
of inflation is lapping at the citadel’s edge anyhow.
The nickel coke will probably vanish soon enosgh,
without any artificial whipping up of the waves by
fretful competitors.
Spokesmen for Economic Stabilization Director
Eric Johnston deny that he took the job to further
presidential aspirations which he once held. Main
reason he took the job—after nine days persuasion
by C. E. Wilson—was that if his son-in-law could
go to Korea and fight, he could afford to give up his
time for a government job in which he was needed.
His only ambition is to go back to the moving pic
ture industry.
Office of Price Stabilization’s theory on controll
ing price markups, instead of controlling prices, can
best be illustrated by one example. Study of past
price differentials from slaughterhouse to ret#il
market has demonstrated that, on the average,
when beef sells for $33 a hundredweight to the
livestock raiser, the price of roundsteak in the meat
market should be around 90 cents a pound. When
roundsteak is selling for sl.lO a pound and beef is
$33, then there’s too much markup someplace along
the line,

Narcofics Anonymous Organizafion
Rescues Addicts; Has No Age Limifs
By CYNTHIA LOWRY
AP Newsfeatures Writer
NEW YORK — “The problem
isn't taking a cure for drug addic
tion,” said the earnest little man
as he lit a cigarette, “the problem
is staying off once you've kicked
the habit,”
He fiddled with the burned
match stick thoughtfully.
“Take me, I've been an addict
for 25 years and I've been clean—
haven’t taken any drugs—for two
years now, I've taken cure after
cure—l've been through Lexing
ton eight times — but each time
I'd be right back on the stuff in
a little while.”
He shook his head.
“The only thing that’s déne it
has been Narcotics Anonymous.
And it's not only me, it's true of
a lot of us.”
The serious little man with the
eyes that still hold some pain is
Danny, who organized a New
York nucleus of “cured” drug ad
dicts along the principles of Al
coholics Anonymous as N.A. Today
these hard - working, dedicated
men and women are laboring tire
lessly in prisons, in underprivil
eged neighborhoods and among
themselves to curb addiction and
prevent its spread.

Danny — whose last name is
shielded in traditional anonymity
—did not think up the adaption of

to meet the drug addicts’ needs.
That was inaugurated four years
ago in the U. S. Public Health
Service Hospital for drug addic
tion at Lexington, Ky. A group of
inmates joined with some Frank-
fort, Ky., members of Alcoholics
Anonymous for an experiment.
Danny, taking his seventh Lex
ington cure, joined the group.
He had picked up the habit at
16, one of the tiny percentage of
addicts who acauired it through
illness, Danny had his first shot
of morphine to still the pain of an
abcessed ear.
“I can’t explain in words what
that morphine did for me—way
beyond relieving the pain,” he
said. “I kept pretending I still had
the pain just so they’d keep giving
me the stuff.”
It wasn’t long before his family
discovered his addiction and sent
the boy away for his first “cure.”
Released, he went right back on
the habit. Since then he has
sweated out the dreadful “with
drawal sickness” alone, licked in
a room. He has been pulled off
“junk” gradually, by the reduc
tion treatment. He has been sent
to hospitals, he has voluntarily
committed himself. Nothing lasted,
he went right back. A
In the 25 years of his addiction,
Danny spent nine years behind
bars—in jails and hospitals. He
has forged doctors’ prescriptions
when his regular sources failed.
He has thrown “wing-dings” —
simulated seizures to trick doctors
into supplying a quieting shot. He
has stolen and cheated to get drugs
or money to buy them.
Scars of Abuse
When he hit Lexington for his
seventh boil-out, Danny was a
shattered, feeble man, haggard and
prematurely old. He’s lucky to
day because his health is pretty
good.
“But my veins are shot,” he
said quietly. “The big veins—the
mainlines—in my arms and legs,
Too much needle. It's left them
kind of numb because its hard for
the blood to get through the small
er veins left. One of my kidneys
is gone, too. That's a place the
junk hits real hard.”

a while Mr. Nix didn't feel much
like eating, and was just gen

a lot about HADACOL, but just
didn’t quite believe it. Finally, he
decided to give it a trial and was
amazed at the results., He started
feeling better after the first bot

found that HADACOL contained
Vitamins B-1, B-2, Niacin and
Iron which his system lacked.

I did decide to give it a fair trial,
and to my amazement, it helped
me greatly. I was run-down, tired
and had no appetite. After the

better, My appetite had picked up,
and I really felt like eating at

(¢) 1351, The Leßlane Corp.
Addicts Anonymous group that
was just getting started among the
patients. Danny has changed the
name of the New York group to
avoid initial-confusion with Alco
holics Anonymous. NA has bor
rowed intact the basic 12 steps of
AA. This requires each member to
face squarely the fact he is an ad
dict, helpless to pull out of his
addiction without an assist from a
higher, spiritual farce.
It adopts the Alcoholic’s prin
ciple of keeping off drugs on a
day-to-day basis rather than con
templating an eternity without
them. And, of course, the “Ads”
embraced the tenet requiring each
to help solve his own problem
by helping others with similar
problems.
Some Differences in Mevement
There are differences, how=-
ever, .
“AA doesn’t advise everyone to
keep off liquor,” he explained.
“Not every drinker is a potential
aleoholic, But every person who
uses drugs is a potential drug-ad
dict. One of our duties in NA is
to do something about it before the
people from starting to use drugs.
“In AA they have to wait for an
alcoholic to hit bottom and come
to them for help. We must go out
and find the addicts and get them
to do something bout it before the
addiction gets worse,”
Onee NA has found an addict,
the members start selling him on
the necessity to take a cure.
“Most people don’t realize how
badly they’re hooked,” he said.
“Particularly these young kids
who are on the habit. They always
think they can kick the habit
alone, without any help. Maybe
some of them can, but I’'ve never
known anyone who had the
strength to.
“So we tell them about our ex
periences and try to get them to
take the cure—go to Lexington for
gradual withdrawal and then
treatment. That takes from four to
six months. Then, as soon as
they’re released, we want them to
join our group and keep working
on staying clean.” .
Companionship Is Important
It’s the business of having an
understanding group to receive the
addict after the cure that is one
of NA’s prime purposes. After
Danny’s seventh cure and intro
duction to the Addicts Anonymous
group in the hospital, he was dis
charged. He quickly hooked onto
an Alcoholocs Anonymous group
in New York City—but soon had
slipped back Into drug-taking
again.
“Then T knew there had to be
something special, like NA, for me
on the outside,” he said.
And as soon as I got through
that next cure, I started to work.”
But NA is getting bigger all the
time. Right now there are 10 Lex
ington alumni working actively.

NA meets in~ groups of 10 or 12 in
a city YMCA—but no addict is
permitted to attend if he’s still on
the habit, (NA members believe |
that once an addict, always an ad-|
dict and shy away from such hap
py phrases as “ex-addict.”)
One hard-working member is a
nurse in her fifties, She became
addicted following an operation
and in her professional life had
little trouble maintaining the ha
bit. She, too, joined Addicts Anon
ymous during her Lexington treat
ment and joined Danny in NA
upon discharge. A third member is
a man who acquired the habit a
quarter of a century ago in Ger
many and has taken 25 or more
cures. Danny met him at the train
on his release from Lexington and
this “hopeless addict” has stayed
clean ever since.
No Age Limits
The group isn’t limited by age.
A Puerto Rican boy of 16 was
hooked as so many others before
and after him—-Jlooking for a new
thrill. Danny came to him after he
was picked up by police with two
heroin capsules in his pocket.
“He wasn’t too much on the ha
bit,” Danny explained, “and he
was locked up for 30 days when
they decided he really didn’t need
Lexington. He joined us as soon
as he got out and he’s doing won
derful work with kids he knows in
Spanish Harlem.”
Twice a month on Sundays, Dan
ny and other NA members hold a
meeting at the Women’s House of
Detention. It’s not required at
tendance, but the gathering usual
ly runs to 100 women—all addicts
and in prison on charges ranging
from shop-lifting to prostitution.
When the NA gets larger, has more
funds, Danny hopes to go into the
prison at Riker’s Island where
there are “hundreds of male ad
dicts,” Danny says.
The small, young, informally or
ganized group has done impressive
work during its year of life. It has
the active support and help of the
Salvation Army, and is working
closely with the city’s courts, pros
ecutor’s offices and social workers.
“But it’s hard work and it goes
so slowly,” said Danny. “It’s hard
work to convince addicts that they
must take the cure first to get
help. But.l sent four kids to Lex
ington last week and another to
day, so you can see we're getting
somewhere—they’ve promised to
join us as soon as they get out.”
