NIGHT EDITOR: LIDA DAILES
Indonesia
LAST THURSDAY there appeared in the
columns of the Daily an editorial on the
Indonesian situation by this writer which
was strenuously objected to by a local wom-
an. She claimed that it presented only the
Republican side. The objection was well-
founded; and in view of recent enlighten-
ment, the Dutch side now deserves our
sympathetic consideration.
Mainly through the efforts of the Dutch
delegate to the UN, Dr. Eelco Van Kleffens,
who has been quietly explaining his coun-
try's position during the past two weeks,
the Dutch have been able to erase the op-
pressor's tag which seemed fair enough at
first thought..
Dr. Van Kleffens has publicized some
facts about Indonesian-Dutch relations
not well known to most of us. He has,
for instance, reported that the Indone-
sians continue to hold some 10,000 Dutch
hostages, including women and children,
that sniping and general disorder prevail-
ed even after the Linggadjati pact; that
the Republican President Sukarno cooper-
ated with the Japanese; that the Dutch
have only two divisions of Europeans in
the Indies; and that the Indonesians are
by no means even a loosely united nation.
The "unity" problem appears to be of the
greatest interest to us now that the UN has
entered the dispute. Although editorial
writers in this country have known that the
Indonesians have quarrelled among them-
selves for a long time, most of them have
not recognized the extent of the disunity.
If Dr. Van Kleffens, Netherlands official
publications, the woman who objected to
last week's editoral and even the Indone-
sians themselves can be believed, there is
no representation of the responsible In-
donesian element desiring complete inde-
pendence from the Netherlands. Some
Dutch go further than that: they claim
there is no responsible element among the
entire Indonesian "government."
Netherlanders offer the following proof of
the previous assertations in "The Nether-
lands," by Hendrik Riemans:
" , in the course of an exhaustive in-
quiry into the aspirations of the people that
was made by a committee on political re-
form, instituted on September 14, 1940, by
the governor general, more than 500 hear-
ings were held, and every school of political
opinion had the chance to declare itself:
Though all wanted more autonomy, all de-
sired the maintenance of ties with the Neth-
erlands."
* And from an Indonesian publication,

"Merdeka":
"We want to declare with great joy that
the Netherlands proposals constitute clear
acknowledgement of the right of the In-
donesian people to determine their own fate
and independence . . . we, therefore have a
common basis ... (for negotiations)."
A short time later, Republican Presi-
dent Sukarno denied "the common basis."
Tren his former Premier, Sutan Sharir,
was reported in agreement with "the com-
mon basis." Evidently the "sovereign state"
that the UN may deal with will be hard
to find.
What hurts the Dutch most of all, more
than an over-sympathetic view of the Re-
publican cause (for they claim they are the
most sympathetic of all) is the tendency
of neonle to forget the halcyon days when

By VICTOR RIESEL
THERE ARE MEN who hold lush labor
jobs but should be thrown out today be-
cause they've associated with crooks and
never opened their usually garrulous mouths
while the thieves used their unions to make
dirty money.
One of these unions actually paid its vice-
president $33,000 a year while he looted em-
ployers who had to deal with the outfit or
go out of business.
I talk of free-fisted Joe Fay, who though
now in prison still is vice-president of the
International Union of Operating Engi-
neers-without whose permission you
couldn't dig a man-sized tunnel or hoist
a pound of bricks anywhere in the U.S.
Fay slugged other union leaders when the
whim struck him. He lived gayly in those
huge Atlantic City hotels. Bellhops jumped
at the local turf club when he walked in,
for he was free with a buck. And why not?
He extorted $700,000 from Eastern contract-
ors and charged well over $200,000 to call
off a strike. His underworld connections
would frighten even a Warner Bros. crime
script writer.
* * * *
Finally this common thief was caught
and sentenced to eight and a half years in -
jail, where he is now.
But his union hasn't thrown him out of ,
office. And if his fellow officers have cut
off his $660-a-week salary, it's a high"
priority secret.
Call his office and you get something like
this: "He ain't here. He's out of town. Naw
he won't be back until the end of the week."
Meanwhile, in Washington, his fellow na-
tional officers are meeting secretly this
week "on the Fay situation." What's all
the hidden parleying about? Fay's a con-
victed crook. He should have been pitched
out of office automatically. Instead, his col-
leagues try to hush-hush his jailing and give
the impression he's on holiday some place.

They tolerated him for 15 years.
their chance to redeem themselves.
up publicly so everyone will know
the dumping of a big-time crook.

Now's
Speak
about

MUSIC
A LONG STANDING belief that "singers
can't act and actors can't sing," and its
corollary that an opera cannot, therefore,
excel both musically and dramatically, was
thoroughly disproved last night by the
Michigan Repertory Players' production of
Georges Bizet's Carmen.'
From Carolyn Street Austin, who was
from the start a most convincing and pas-s
sionately provocative Carmen, through the
timid, loyal Micaela, sung by Maryjane Al--
bright, to the peasant chorus, it was obvious
that character interpretations and music
were fully understood.
Nor were the male leads any less ade-
quate. Norris Greer, as the corporal Don
Jose, although a trifle stiff at first, was
all one could want from a jealous and
subsequently betrayed lover.
However it was Escamillo, the toreador,
played by Laurence McKenna, who lured
the audience, as well as Carmen, away fron
the unhappy Don Jose. The popular Tor'-
eador Song, powerfully presented, was too
strong an argument in favor of the dashing-
ly costumed bull-fighter.
With an unusually and gratifyingly
strong string section, the University Or-
chestra, under the direction of Prof.
Wayne Dunlap, lent the proper Bizet col- .
or to the opera, and generally provided
a quite satisfactory background, neither
too prominent nor too weak.
Sets and costuming, though, for the mos
part, unelaborate, were completely adequate
and fitting to scenes and characters.''
Altogether, the performance was well
handled from production, musical and dra-
matic viewpoints. Sincere acting and fine
music talent combined to produce a Carmen
palatable to the most finick opera taste.

on the Islands, and how much they love
the country.
Now Dr. Van Kleffans and Netherlands
like the Ann Arbor woman have mostly
memories. They know how complex a
problem faces the Dutch in Indonesia.
They know we don't know how serious the
problem is; they see our lack of interest
and knowledge. So they won't bother us
with the unhappy tale of the past few
years in the Indies; all they claim is that
they are now doing their duty in Indo -
nesia as they have for over a hundred
years.
Despite Dutch assertations that the prob-
lem is not one for the UN (and technically
they are right), both sides present a case:
one understands that there must be a strong

But no. Many of the union leaders who
could clean house and thus say to the pub-
lic, "Look, this is what we're doing," are
sitting around beating their gums over the
raw deal Congress handed them in the Taft-
Hartley law. Virtually all labor outfits and
their lawyers are either defying the law or
working on gimmicks to by-pass it. Why
not call in public relations men, not lawyers,
and do something to show the people that
the unsavory unions, which are giving all
labor an odorous reputation, can cleanse
themselves?
How about those unions, for example,
which won't let you work in an industry
because you're not a union member- and
yet won't let you join. Outfits like the
Mail Advertisers' Union or that Motion
Picture Machine Operators' local in
Pennsylvania which do not admit anyone
but the sons of members. I know of an-
other movie machine union which takes
a $1,000 initiation fee and where you
must be a blood relative of a member to
get in.
These outfits have been protesting bit-
terly against the Taft-Hartley ban on closed
shops. I say the law was wrong in pro-
hibiting the closed shop. But I also say
the unions which force employers to hire,
only their members (through the closed
shop) and then close their membership
books should be broken into by the govern-
ment.
* * * *
And why don't the unions clean house
of vicious internal feuds?
Just look at the National Maritime Un-
ion. There many of the officers are try-
ing to destroy their own president's repu-
tation. Several of these NMU officials
have columns in the union's newspaper,
The Pilot. What happens? Their per-
sonal columns are filled with attacks on
"brother" officers. Meanwhile money for
all this precious newsprint comes out of
the sailors' pockets.
If it all doesn't stop soon, labor will learn
the high price of suicide.

Captain Tempest, Carla Candiana, Ad-
riano Rimoldi, Italian Dialogue, English
Subtitles.
IN THE melodramatic escapades of a wo-
man who masquerades as a warrior, vin-
tage 1570, Capitano Tempesta seems to at-
tempt a Wicked Lady with a historical back-
ground. And with about the same success.
The plot deals with the Venetian struggle
against the infidel on the island of Cyprus
and with the equally violent war which the
Ottoman Turks wage against them, also in-
fidels, by Mohammedan standards.
A serious difficulty, and one with which
the film does not succeed in coping, is the
problem of effective subtitles. The transla-
tion of any foreign language motion picture
for an English-speaking audience is ticklish
work. But when serious titles produce un-
toward laughter, failure is obvious.
As a'film on its own merits, Captain Tem-
pest is neither better nor worse than the
average American historical epic. As a com-
mentary on the progress-of the motion pic-
ture industry abroad, it shows that stand-
ards in Italy are not yet equal to those in
other European nations.
-Beverly Dippel
THE BROADENING HORIZONS of Euro-
pean thinking are illustrated in the pro-
posal at the Geneva Trade Conference to
adjust the projected world trade charter in

such a way as to promote Europe's economic
integration through customs unions, which
have often proved to be the precursors of
political unification. Such unification has
long been the goal of many of Europe's ablest
statesmen. But while that concept has not
been able thus far to overcome the barriers
of a passionate nationalism which is both
the product and the producer of Europe's
many wars, a solid basis for it is being creat-
ed by the economic necessities of a continent
devastated by its last great conflict.
The new move is the direct outcome of
the Marshall Plan, which first brought six-
teen European nations together to plan for
their common recovery on the basis of
mutual self-help and thus forced them to
consider at least Western Europe as an eco-
nomic whole. That even this seemingly ob-
vious procedure still faces many obstacles is
shown by the French and British attitudes
in the matter of including Germany in the
reconstruction program. But the Geneva
Trade Conference deals with wider and
longer-range objectives and may therefore
be able to pave the way for fundamental
developments beyond the fears and hopes
that raise the difficulties of today.
