Preaches Unification Gospel
BY PETER EDSON
NEA Washington Correspondent
PARIS.— (NEA)—A proposal to make U. S. Gen
eral Dwight D. Eisenhower virtual “czar” of west
e'n European rearmament was recently put to him
by an American emissary who has the fullest con
fidence and backing of President Truman. The idea
was to give Eisenhower control over not only the
armies of western Europe, which he now has, but
also control over Eurcpean defense production. The
latter would mean that this “czar” would also have
to direct the economy of the nine free countries of
Europe, to coordinate their rearmanmrent effort.
This master plan was neatly conceived. General
Lisenhower is known to believe devoutly in the
need for European unification. He preaches it, off
the record, to all his visitors.
1f anybody can unite western Europe, Eisenhower
is that man. When French generals tell their polit
ical leaders that western Europe can be defended,
there is disbelief, or doubt. They remember the
Maginot line and the fall of France in ’4O. When
Eisenhower tells them the same thing, they believe
it as fact.
There is great belief in western Europe that the
American-led rearmament effort is a mask for an
intended U. 8. agagressive warfare agginst Russia,
Yet when General Eisenhower tells Eflropean po=
litical leaders that he has no plans for aggressive
warfare—only defensive warfare against possible
Communist aggression -—— they believe him im
pl}dty. And a great feeling of relief is apparent.
It}mil_ds up confidence in the U. S. leadership,
spurring the Europeans to greater effort.
TOOO SMART FOR THE NOOSE
In spite of this great fervor building up behind
Eisenhower, the General was smart enough not to
put his head in the noose offered to him, to head up
western European defense production as well as
military defense. To have accepted it would have
put full responsibility for its success or failure on
his shoulders. So he politely ducked. '
As a result of this decision, W. Averill Harriman,
President Truman’s trouble-shooting ambassador
and foreign policy adviser, has taken over the role
of co-ordinator of western European defense pro
duction. Ambassador Harriman is head of the
‘“three wise men” representing the U. S., Britain
and France, and “the 12 apostles,” representing all
the North Atlantic Treaty countries,
Kmbassador Harrinran is in Paris how, meeting
with European government leaders, trying to find
ways and means by which the civilian economies
can back up Eisenhower’s new crusade in Europe.
If General Eisenhower is the guiding spirit and in
spiration’ of this movement, then Ambassador Har~
riman is cast in the role of its St. Peter and St.
Paul. Sy e .
In preaching the new gospel for Europe, General
Eisenhower — and Ambassador Harriman — begin
with the simple approach of adding up the resources
of the free world as opposed to resources behind the
iron curtain. The advantage is shown to be on the
side of the free world, whether the measure is in
steel capacity or general levels of education. Why,
then, the concern?
According to the Eisenhower philosophy, the
Communists have unity while the free world has
none. %
JOB IS TO BOLSTER FREE
NATIONS' MORALE
General Eisenhower’s problem, then, is how to
convince the free nations that they are more than
a match for the Communist world. This is the goal
of the Eisenhower crusade. It is considered so im
portant it is given priority over everything else. It
is to restore European morale,
The approach is to make the 12 North Atlantic
nations and their future allies see their enlightened
self-interest in the crusade. The American self
interest, from the Eisenhower point of view, is that
freedom can’t exist if all other nations fall under
Communist domrination.
It is impossible to spend even a few hours around
the Eisenhower headquarters without catching the
spirit of this revival. The General quotes Patrick
Henry's “Give me liberty, or give me death,” as a
slogan. Rebuilding morale in Europe is talked
about in terms of reducing the hours of labor nec
essary to buy a pair es shoes.
SHAPE—Supreme Headquarters, Allied Powers
in Europe—is mixed up in all such matters. General
Eisenhower has refused ot assume personal respon=
sibility for them, but he does provide the Inspira=-
tion, Eisenhower’s guiding principle may be stated
as a convietion that a people united can do the im
possible.

Reds Must Negotiate Serious
eds Must Negotiate Seriously
Or Be Soundly Beaten In War
Despite oétimlsm over the resumption of peace
talks in Korea, prospects for a settlement can hardly
be described as bright. Russia’s rejection of the U,
S. effort to break the impasse at the Moscow level
inevitably casts a pall over negotiations,
Up to now, the feeling in official quarters has
been that a bitter 10gic of compulsion has brought
the Communists back to the council table again and
again, when it appeared all hope of further discus
sion was lost.
The elements of compulsion were seen to be
these:
Heavy Communist losses in the field over more
than a year’s time.
Inability of the Chinese and North Korean Reds
to win from Russia enough new armor and other
material to provide the punch for another offen
sive.
The prospect of shivering out another cruel
Korean winter with forces certain to be severely
decimrated by cold and disease.
These elements still must be working their pow
erful logic on the Communist high command. Yet
the Reds’ performance at Kaesong and Panmunjom
shows little sign they are ready for the only kind
of settlement the military realities will allow.
General Ridgway has recently informed them in
plain words that each day’s delay costs them ter
ritory, for as our soldiers advance they take the
truce line with themr. UN forces today are four to
15 miles beyond their line of August 23, last day of
real negotiations.
But even this knowledge has made no substan
tial dent. Current optimism is over getting around
the table again—not over any concrete proposals
for settlement, The truth is no progress at all has
been made toward that objective, and we must at
least entertain the thought that the Reds intend no
settlement we could accept.
At the start they may have been misled by early
official U. S. declarations that a cease-fire along
the 38th parallel might be satisfactory. Foreign
Minister Vishinsky’s reply to our Mosc¢ow overtur%
indicates the Reds still think in those terms. ¥
Apparently they were upset by our determina
tion to take the truce line with us as we advanced,
and to seek a line more defensible nrilitarily than
the 38th parallel.
It must be remembered that never in postwar
history have Communists been asked to yield land
they held before an aggression began. This is some
thing they have never had to swallow, Despite
harsh battlefield realities, they haven't yet been
able to digest this.
To settle at the 38th would permit them to claim
they had “repelled the Western invader bent on
conquering North Korea.” They could gloss over
their failure to win their own goal—South Korea.
But they could not gloss over the presence of a po
tent enemy force 20 to 30 miles inside territory
they once called their own. 7
That is their dilernma. They are meeting it by
stalling, by going through truce-talk motions which
tend to deflect attention from the battlefield and to
water down firmer military resolve on our part.
They may well be playing by ear, improvising as
they go, hoping something will turn up to give
them the break they need.
The question before the United Nations is how
long it will permit this fragile device to assist the
Cormnunists. If we do not have within the next
month or so unmistakable evidenee that the Reds
are negotiating seriously, we might well consider
that the ¥me is at hand for more vigorous prose
cution of the war. In war there are some things
even a Communist may be brought to accept. And
the peril of irreversible defeat is one,
Answers Wanted
Though there has been no official statement, re
liable reports from the Pentagon indicate the great
intramural debate over Air Force expansion has
been resolved in favor of a 140-group armada.
These accounts declare that in the enlarged force,
tactical aviation will receive much greater stress
than now. American weakness in this field has long
been remarked. Thus if the reports are -accurate,
that glaring shortcoming is about to be remedied.
Whatever the new make-up of our military es
tablishment is to.be, the American people are en
titled to see the basic justifications for it. What
kind of defense are we now to have? What new con=-
cepts of balance among air, sea and land power are
at work? What kind of war are we preparing to
fight—if that should become necessary?
It is not enough that only the men in the inner
circle of government know the answers ot these
questions,
