The Washington Notebook
BY PETER EDSON
NEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON.—(NEA)—The U, S. Secret Ser
vice came darn near to wrecking friendly relations
between La Belle France and the United States the
other night, and spoiling the Washington visit of
French President Vincent Auriol to boot. It happen
ed at the big chateau which is the French embassy.
President Auriol gave a dinner there, in honor of
President Truman.
The dinner was for 30 assorted Supreme Court
t justices, senators and other bigwigs in the U. S.
overnment and their wives. For afterwards, the
Ftcnoh Invited in some 1,500 smaller fry. They
were supposed to come at 10:30 p. m. But the Secret
Serviee, whose job it is to protect the life of the
U. 8. President and the French President, too,
éwhen he's on U. S. soil, wouldn’t let any of the 1,500
,in until Mr, Truman and family had gone honre.
And they were having such a good time that they
stayed late, shaking the hands of some 600 people.
So, until pretty near midnight, 1,500 of Wash
ington’s supposedly best people, all dolled up in
white ties, tails and their best evening gowns, stood
in line outside and waited to get in, Comparison to
a line before a soup kitchen would be apt, if the
folks hadn’t been dressed up so fancy and if the
ifree feed hadn't been French pastry and cham=-
pagne,
The line extended all the way down the walk
along the wide, curving driveway that led to the
embassy and on for another block to Connecticut
Avenue., Oh my! the thoughts they thunk and the
things they said! Traffic was jammed for blocks.
DIPLOMATS DEPLORE THE FOUL-UP
There were a lot of diplomats from other embas
sies in the line, stove-pipe hatted, and with ribbons
across their chests and nredals on their lapels. They
shook their heads and said seriously that this was
no way to promote friendly relations between na
tions,
Madam Pandit, the Indian ambassadress, finally
ave up im disgust and started home. The line be
ind her moved up one step., Later she was back,
owever, for the word spread that diplomats—the
op diplomats and their families, that is—would be
admitted. So they pulled their rank and pulled out
i.of line and-crashed the gate. Nobody cheered.
. Fortunately, it was a nice night. A few well
placed stars, low white fleecy clouds, magnolia
trees just busting into bloom, a magnificent big
silver. birch silhouetted against the night sky, the
bright lights from inside shining a welcome to the
little nratch girls and boys in line outside. But if it
! had rained a few drops, you might just as well have
" written the North Atlantic Treaty Organization off
as a bust and let the Communists have Europe.
It was a bit childish. A number of people who
thought they were smart, like Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge, jr., of Massachusetts, figured they'd avoid
the crush at the check rooms. So they left their
toppers and coats in their cars. That was their mis
take. After the first hour they began to shiver. A
few people crawled into makeshift pup tents pro
vided by Army officers who wore full dress long
capes. Women in evening slippers began to com
plain of cold feet.
SIGHTSEERS RIB BOTTLENECKED GUESTS
But at least 1,450 of the 1,500 stuck it out. “This
proves,” as one wag remarked, ‘“how much we
really love France.”
There were a few dozen curious sightseers in
nice warm spectator sport coats, lined up on the
other side of the street, laughing at the folk in the
slow-motion conga line. Later they started roaming
around the embassy lawn for closer look-sees. As
one group came over the brow of a small rise of
greensward, the cry went up, “Here comes the Red
Cross!”
About midnight, a loud speaker started blaring
out of the night, waking the birds with, “Car for
Vice President Barkley!” “Car No. 666!” And so on.
Fortunately, some of those on the inside were going
home, to make room for those on the outside.
S at last the line began to move. By 1 a. m,,
everybody was inside. And boy was it wonderful
and worth waiting for. Vive le President Auriol!
Le Foreign Minister Schuman? Magnifique! Vive
I’Ambassadeur Henri Bonnet. Madame Auriol et
Madanre Bonnet-—Tres belles. Vive les Paris dress
maker and vive le champagne. After a couple, no
body was mad at anybody, France was our most
glorious ally and the official visit was a diplomatic
triumph which binds the two nations forever more,
But as for the U. S. Secret Service—
If fully mobilized, the American economy is cap
able of producing enough to meet our defense needs
while . .. devoting billions a year to the carrying
out of a positive peace offensive.-—Walter P. Reu
ther, president of UAW,
It will take seven years of study to become a psy
chiatrist but , . . (I want to) satisfy my curiosity
about the guy with the drink in his hand and eyes
all over his head.—Alma Civic, chorus girl.
Nehru Hates Communism,
But Fails To Grasp Democracy
Prime Minister Nehru of India, who spent a good
part of 1950 behaving as if communism and dem
ocracy were either both bad or both good, at last
has given some public evidence of a saner view.
In an interview with Robert Trumbull of the
New York Times, the Indian leader made it clear
that he abhors Red expansionism and the suppres
sion of human liberties by the Communist govern
ments in many lands.
The international Red movement, he said, fla
grantly violates the basic principles of his own
personal creed. He does not want to see communism
in India nor does he approve of it elsewhere,
“My personal reaction is that the Communist
Party is completely unscruplous,” he told this in
terviewer. “It believes in achieving results by any
means, whatever they may be.” ’
Nehru intended this statement as an answer to
those who feel he has up to now shown greater
concern over a fading western colonialism in Asia
than he has over the spread of evil communism.
As a declaration of basic attitude, what he said is
indeed welcome in the West, Nehru may well con~
tend he has felt this way all along; western leaders
could only reply that he has a strange way of
showing it. *
How could he argue for yielding to Communist
blackmail in phony “peace” deals affecting Korea
and other parts of Asia? How could he propose
compromising with evil? |
Quite accidentally, he hinted at one possible ex
planation in his interview with Trumbull. Discuss
ing new truce efforts with the Reds over Korea, he
said: “A cease-fire or a truce is always a good thing
in itself.,” The key words here are “in itself.”
What he said in effect was that an absence of
shooting is always desirable, no matter what the
price. He defines peace as “non-violence,” whereas
the postwar years have taught us all that war can
be bought by many methods short of gunfire,
To the extent Nehru still holds to this notion, he
is still a tragically naive figure. He is unable to
grasp the full and terrible meaning of communism,
despite his professions of abhorrence for it. For in
the Communist world, truce and negotiation
not steps to peace. They are merely different tactics
in an unending war fought on all fronts.
Nehru's latest comment is interesting on another
point. Like many others, he seeks to distinguish
between “pure” Marxist communism and the “cor
rupted” version practiced by the Russians, their
puppets and their agents throughout the world.
He believes, in other words that a Commmunist
state directed by high-minded idealists might be no
menace at all to free men elsewhere. Others argue,
though, that the internal compulsions of commun=-
ism inevitably spill over national borders and make
for a ruthless imperialism.
But this issue is largely academic, since the Rus
sian variety is the only kind we are likely to see
much of in the next few decades. Its only imrport
ance is in revealing once again that Nehru’s mind
is extremely receptive to alternatives to democracy
—and too little impressed with the values of dem
ocracy.
Part of this failing may be due to Nehru's back
ground and training. Part is almost certainly due,
however, to the West’s own shortcomings: its fail
ure not only to sell democracy in Asia but to create
the economic conditions under which it might grow
and flourish,
® we want men like Nehru and his followers to
turn from the false dreanr of communism, we must
give them hope that our better dream of democracy
can one day be effectively transplanted to the trou
bled soil of Asia. -
Chow Call
Recent letters from a few soldiers and their par
ents, complairting about conditions in Korea, haye
reminded Defense Secretary George Marshall of
the much bigger flood of such mail in the early
1940’5.
There was one letter in particular sent over to the
Chief of Staff’s office by Sen. Harry Byrd of Vir
ginia, It was a letter from a Virginia mother, com
plaining that the food given her son by the Army
was terrible. This was at a time when the Armed
services were getting greater quantity and higher
quality food than” the civilian population, though
General Marshall admitted that what they might
have done to it in preparation was something else
again.
Anyway, he ordered an investigation. It developed
that this particular soldier had gained 22 pounds in
three weeks, eating Army chow. General Marshall
sent this report back to Senator Byrd.
The senator never answered the letter. But after
the war, General Marshall was invited down to
Senator Byrd's Berryville, Va., farm. They had a
wonderful big meal, with lots of Southern hos
pitality and charm thrown in. General Marshall
waited till after the meal was over. Then he told
the story about the underfed Virginia soldier and
asked Senator Byrd why he had never answered
that letter.
Donald S. Dawson, White House aide, has thus
far declined to testify before the Senate committee
investigating the RFC. President Truman has indi
cated he has no objection to Dawson's appearance,
It is in the public interest that he do so, to clear up
his connection with the muddled story of political
influence in the BFC. If he persists in refusing, Mr.
Truman should demand his resignation.

Pain In Chest After Overwork
May Mean Angina Pectoris
BY EDWIN P. JORDAN, M. D,
Written for NEA Service
Pain in the chest often running
down the left arm and coming on
after exercise, like climbing stairs,
always raise the suspicion of an
gina pectoris. Sometimes the pain
is severe and sometimes mild. Un
less the pain is absent when rest
ing and appears only on exertion
th e cause is probably something
else.
Th e coronary arteries carry
blood to the heart muscle. Because
the heart muscle works so hard,
it needs 2 great deal of blood and
any interference with the amount
of blood passing through the cor
onaries brings trouble.
In angina pectoris the coronary
arteries do not allow a normal
quantity of blood to pass through
the heart muscle. The passage
ways are narrowed by deposits of
fat-like substances or calcium.
Thus when the heart has to work
harder, as it does when exercising,
the amount of blood going through
the coronaries is not enough. At
such times the effects of insuffi
cient blood are shown by pain in
the chest and often a feeling of
anxiety, shortness of breath and
sweating.
As a rule these symptoms clear
up rather rapidily after the exer
tion is stopped. In other words,
the heart at rest does get enough
blood. As soon as rest is begun
the heart does not have to do so
much work and th e blood which
it receives through the arteries
becomeg ample.
Angina pectoris is related to
coronary thrombosis, though the
two are not the same. In angiaa
pectoris, the interference with
passage of blood to the heart mus
cle is not complete; in a coronary
| thrombosis, a clot forms inside one
of the coronary blood vessels and
‘completely shuts off the passage
of blood to some part of the heart.

angina pectoris vary a great deal.
Some people have only occasion
al attacks of pain and find is easy
to avoid the extension which will
bring on symptoms. In other peo
ple there seems to be a much
smaller passageway for the blood
and even slight exertion causes
pain. b
It was formerly believed that
most people who developed angina
were doomed in the not too distant
future. Now, however, with bet
ter knowledge of treatment, many
of those who have angina live a
great many years with only occa
sional attacks. Those who have
angina without high blood pres
sure generally do better than those
with it.
ORYX HUNTING RESTRICTED
CAIRO— (AP) —The hunting
and killing of the wudhyhiya, or
oryx, has been forbidden by a gov
ernment decree in Saudi Arabia,
the Arab News Agency reports
from Hofuf (Saudi-Arabia). The
decree was issued to protect this
nearly extinct animal which can
only be found in Arabia today,
ANA’s dispatch adds.
The oryx is said to be quite
ferocious. It has two straight horns
from 24 to 30 inches long, and has
been seen to charge its enemies at
great speed. Bedouins commonly
believe that its flesh has unusual
healing powers. Some swear that
it helps to mend broken bones in
a short time.
Ever wonder what causes that
unsilghtly discoloration on the in
side of some tin cans? It’s sulphur
from the canned food. It discolors
tin just as sulphur in cooked egg
iiiscolors silver. Perfectly harm

TEL AVIV.~This could be like
Job’s “Land of Darkness and the
Shadow of Death” ...
As a matter of fact, Kfar Ivrim
—Hebrew for “Village of the
Blind”—is a place of hope and re
newed faith in life.
The settlement was established
only a few months ago amidst the
vineyards and orange groves of
the Israel coastal plain southeast
of Tel Aviv.
A year or two ago many of the
70 bljnd nmren and women who are
now staying here, squatted wrap
ped in rags, with outstretched
hands, at street comers in south
ern Arabian towns, in the noisy
bazaars of Baghdad, in sun-dried
North-African or forgotten Balkan
villages—just beggars.
Others were in World War 1I
concentration camps in Europe.
Today, the Orientals and the
Europeans, are all proud Israeli
workers; they earn their wages
and support their families, In a
few cases, both man and wiie, are
blind. In most, either the one or
the other is. Their children can
see.
The children — there are about
100 of them—go to school in the
nearby old-established colony Ge
derah, Some day they wiil make
an excursion a few miles south to
the ruins of Ascalon, the ancient
Philistine city where Samson,
the Judge, one of the greatelt
blind in history, performed many
of his deeds.
Kfar Ivrim was founded by
“Malben” and its head organiza=-
tion “Joint” éAmcrican Jewlsh
Distribution Committee) which
%rovlded the money through the
nited Jewish Appeal,
In Kfar Ivrim workshops the
blind make mattresses, brushes
and wicker products sold through
a special shop in Tel Aviv. Later
the whole outfit may be turned
into a cooperative.
Dr. Nissim Hagel, the respected
mukhtar (village head), teacher
and arbiter, is a former Warsaw
lawyer who contracted an eye dis
ease ending in blindness, wgfle he
was a soldier in World War 11.
He is the only one in the village
led by a dog—one of seven “Seeing
Eye” dogs now in Israel.
