THOMAS L. STOKES:
International Army
WASHINGTON-Our government is giving
every encouragement to the proposal by
President Vincent Auriol of France that the
United Nations capitalize its first challenge
by aggression in Korea, and proceed now,
and forthwith, to create a permanent inter-
national police force-an international army
-to meet future aggression.
The time, it is felt here, is propitious to
achieve this objective set forth in the UN
Charter which, up to now, has been frus-
trafed, chiefly by Soviet Russia, in protracted
fruitless negotiations. The United States
would strongly support a move within the
Security Council to implement its charter
-in this important regard.
In the absence of such an organized inter-
national police force as an enforcement arm,
the United Nations, as we know, promptly
authorized an emergency UN military force
when the North Korean Communist attack
came to shock the world; sent out a call for
troops and other military and naval assist-
ance, and appointed General Douglas Mac-
Arth'tlr as Commander of a UN force under
the UN flag.
- This now has been symbolized in General
MacArthur's first formal report to the Secur-
ity Council as UN commander, which served
to dramatize the support by 56 of the 59
member nations of the UN's courageous ac-
tion in Korea. Only Russia, Poland and
Czechoslovakia rejected the Security Coun-
cil's resolution challenging the North Korean
aggression.
* *.*
1'pIUS FAR, as is known, we have furnished
all the land troops that are operating
withthe SouthdKorean Army, though naval
and air uinits have been furnished by Great
Britain, New Zealand, Australia, Canada and
the Netherlands. Little Thailand now has
come through with an offer of 4,000 ground
troops, which, it is hoped, will be an inspira-
tion to other member nations, and Great
Britain is expected soon to supply infantry.
Our people have been disappointed, and
understandably so, at the slow response
among other member nations to the appeal
for ground troops to help carry the burden

in Korea-and it is a heavy one-though it
is clearly understood by officials here that
there are circumstances which, in many
cases, make it difficult to comply immed-
iately. Among them are commitments at
other exposed points on the world front.
It would encourage our people, and bol-
ster the morale of the free nations of the
world, if the UN would proceed now with
plans for a permanent international police
force, while going ahead at the same time
with the immediate task of creating a more
representative international army for the
Korean front. '
That would strengthen the UN, consolidate
its position and influence, and serve notice
to any nation with aggressive intent, that an
international army would be ready and or-
ganized for any new thrust at vulnerable
sectors such as that in Korea. It would give
the UN substance and real authority.
OUR PEOPLE have given the UN fine and
continued support, and have constantly
advocated, through numerous organizations,
various proposals for strengthening it and
broadening its usefulness, among them al-
ways, the creation of the international police
force provided by its Charter. This is re-
flected in numerous resolutions in Congress.
The Korean crisis has plainly demonstrated
the need of an enforcement arm, which be-
comes, consequently, the most pressing need.
As envisaged here, the plan for that
would embrace voluntary enlistments from
member nations for the international
army, as well as fixed quotas for each na-
tion from existing forces. It is recognized
that such troops must be carefully selected
to produce the greatest efficiency and high
morale.
There are difficulties, to be sure-in the
way of financing such an. international po-
lice force, in language and other differences
that are found in a military force recruited
from diverse nations; in the matter of stan-
dardization- of arms, though this last is a
problem that is being worked out now with
other nations in the North Atlantic Pact.
All these difficulties can be overcome with
patience and determination, as they must
be overcome if the UN is going to realize its
purpose and be prepared to cope with pos-
sible future acts of aggression.
tUp to now the UN has met its responsi-
bilities in this crisis with boldness and dis-
patch. Now is the time to take this next step.

Trained Seal
REPUBLICAN SENATOR JENNER'S at-
tack on Democratic Senator Tydings, in
which he labelled the latter a "trained seal"
because of his recent McCarthy investiga-
tion, prompted us to do some research on
the living habits of the lowly seal.
Seals are socially-minded mammals who
take their responsibilities very seriously.
Trained seals are patient and hard-work-
ing, content to perform their duty and
mind their own business. Naturally con-
genial, seals live in big colonies, are gre-
garious and feed peacefully together. Rare-
ly is a seal seen alone, as he dearly loves
and prizes the companionship of his bro-
thers.
A seal respects another seal's territory and
usually does not trespass. Ordinarily con-
genial, the lowly seal is hostile only during
matipg season. At that time, the male comesi
on land to mark off an area for his domestic
life. If another seal does trespass, a fight
follows.
As the young can't swim at birth, they are
gently taught by the patient mother seal.
The family life of the seal is harmonious
and peaceful.
A seal is a humble creature with only good
will towards his brother seal.
We do not think Senator Jenner meant
quite what he said.

ON THE
Washington Merry- Go -Round
WITH DREW PEARSON
W ASHINGTON - Our ex-Ambassador to
Russia, Gen. Bedell Smith, recently told
a closed-door session of the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee how a Soviet propa-
ganda film backfired.
"The Russians are intensely interested
in how the man in the small American
town or city lives," Gen. Smith told the sen-
ators. "The great Russian propaganda pic-
ture, 'Rusky Vaprosk,' which was a terrible
indictment of American journalism and for-
eign policy, played in 500 theatres simul-
taneously in the Soviet Union. But it lasted
only two weeks in Moscow.
"We had American observers at the
theatre almost every night. The audience
reaction was interesting. In one scene,
the producer had accurately shown a ten-
ement in the east side of New York -
what we would consider extremely poor
housing.
"To the Muscovite," Smith continued, "it
was darn good housing, housing Russians
would compete for. Between the tenement
buildings were clotheslines, and audience
reaction was, 'My God, how many clothes
they have! Look at them'!"
General Smith smiled at this recollection
and went on: "Then the film showed the
little Westchester bungalow of the down-
trodden reporter who was losing his job and
his wife because he had written something
good about the Soviet Union. The audience
was not interested in what was happening
to him, but they were gasping at the electric
range and the electric refrigrator in the
kitchen."
LUSH CAMPAIGN FUNDS
BIG-TIME MONEY is still pouring into
senatorial primaries, the latest to at-
tract attention being the New Hampshire
battle between two Republicans, elder states-
man Senator Charles Tobey and ex-Senate
secretary Wesley Powell.
Powell, an. energetic young man who
formerly ran the office of New Hamp-
shire's Senator Styles Bridges, seems to
have an abundance of funds to spend in
his campaign against Tobey. Yet he re-
signed from his job with Senator Bridges
one year ago, has no law practice, no
other important means of support, and
has been giving all his time to campaign-
ing.
Where he gets his lush campaign chest
is not yet known. However, Truman's close
Tobey.
Meanwhile, Iowa's Senator Gillette, chair-
friend Ed Pauley once vowed that he could
contribute any amount of money to defeat
Senator Tobey. This was after Tobey led
the Senate attack which defeated oil-man
Pauley for appointment as Undersecretary
of the Navy. Tobey maintained that with
the Navy buying large amounts of oil, a big
oil man, who had raised thousands for the
Democratic Party, should not be running
the Navy.
Also sore at Tobey and reported anxious
to unseat him are David Sarnoff of RCA,
whose operations Tobey once exposed, and
the Textron Company, also investigated by
tion campaigns, has been requested to in-
vestigate New Hampshire. It isn't likely,
however, that the likable gentleman from
Iowa will do anything. In the first place,
Gillette is too easygoing. In the second
place, Senator Tobey once trod on Gillette's
toes in a previous election probe.

IT HAS BEEN a rich summer for musical
offerings with concerts crowding each
other in quick succession. Tuesday evening's
performance by the Stanley Quartet was
followed on Wednesday by a Chicago
Symphony Woodwind Quintet concert, and
the juxtaposition of the two concerts pro-
vided a pleasant contrast. The Stanley Quar-
tet concerts are dignified and solemn occa-
sions, and the delightful squeals and bur-
bles made by the skillful Chicago wind play-
ers was comic relief to the high seriousness
of the Quartet.
The first half of the program was made
up of an Adagio and Allegro by Giovanni
Somis, and the Quintet, Opus 79 by August
Klughardt. Somis' music is in the early
baroque manner: the adagio measured
and pompous, the lively allegro character-
ized by busy counterpoint. Klughardt's
Quintet is untroubled romantic music,
with a distinct Brahmsian flavor, and is
full of bucolic 'melodies and hunting calls.
The second half of the program contain-
ed three modern works: La Cheminee du
roi Rene by Milhaud, Sketch Book in Eire
by De Lamarter, and Hindemith's Kleine
Kammermusik, Opus 24, No. 2. The De La-
marter is the kind of stock-in-trade atmos-
phere music we associate with movies: sheep
grazing in the meadows, country people go-
ing to church, on Sunday, and so forth. MIih-
laud and the Hindemith were of greater con-
sequence-the Chicago wind player's per-
formance of the Kleine Kammermusik re-
minded one that this piece is well on its
way to becoming a chamber music classic,
and that Hindemith is a composer who rare-
ly writes uninteresting music and who never
writes badly.

YOU CAN'T CHEAT AN HONEST
MAN and HANGOVER SQUARE.
THE FIRST FILM of the double bill this
weekend is HANGOVER SQUARE set
in London at the beginning of the Twen-
tieth century. It is an early psychological,
murder thriller, and quite good. Cregar as
Bone, a composer given to fits which he
never remembers, turns in a satisfactory in-
terpretation of a simple, almost naive, man
who slowly discovers what he does in his
fits.
George Sanders as the Scotland Yard doc-
tor is his own suave self as he untangles
Bone's mind and brings him to justice.
Linda Darnell, is the scheming dance hall
singer with aspirations who causes all the
trouble and whom we don't mind dying. I
hated to see her go, however.
Costuming is fine, and the direction of the
sundry fit scenes and the subsequent return
to normal is what makes this film something
above the normal thriller. One last note on
the music. It seems to have been built
around the sounds heard by Bone while in
his fits. As such it plays an integral part in
the development of the plot.

YOU CAN'T CHEAT AN HONEST MAN
with Fields, McCarthy and Bergen,
Mortimer Snerd, Rochester et al, is the sec-
ond offering. If you like Fields, go, if you
don't, go anyway.
This is a shotgun attempt at- humor that
not only hits its mark, but tears the target
from its mountings. The plot is skimpy, but
existent, almost as much as there was in My
Little Chickadee.

How Long?
To the Editor:
THERE'S A murderer singing in
the choir. He's doing a lot of
leading in prayer, too. In fact, he's
doing his best to leave us without
a prayer of a chance against him
when he decides to murder us. He
talks fine, of course, and he seems
to be fooling some of the yokels
among us. He's been spouting
ideals that the Christ would give
his backing to. But it's queer.
None of the things he does tracks
with what he says. He bellows
from a balcony about freedom and
enslaves the people and murders
and tortures and sends them to
concentration camps. He hates the
U.S. but he's grateful for any-
thing we can give just like any
gangster that would rather have
you hand over the swag instead of
making him take it away from
you. Now he wants us to quit car-
rying guns (the Commie peace
petition) so he can move in on us
easier. While we were taking a
beating it was all right but now
that we're fighting back in Korea
-that's tough! How long are we
going to smell this rotten egg and
keep on saying it's good?
I enjoy The Daily. But since
the Commies are claiming only a
10 per cent take here on cam-
pus (Gordon Mac Dougall,
7/22/50) let's not see more than
10 per cent of letters to the editor
taken up by those with Commie
or just plain pro-Russian leanings.
If we can't find letters from pro-
Americans, then let's leave a white
blank in the paper to indicate that
the pro-safety, pro-freedom peo-
ple haven't taken the time to
write.
Yours for less treason.

Facts on Korea...
To the Editor:
WHY HAS THE South Korean
army collapsed? Every day
the newspapers attempt to ans-
wer this question. The answers
are mostly in the vein that we did
not send the South Koreans suf-
ficient equipment and did not
train them for tank warfare.
However, these answers tell only
a minute part of the real story.
Here are the facts the newspapers
try to suppress.
1-The Syngman Rhee govern-
ment is notoriously corrupt and
reactionary, a carbon copy of the
Chiang Kai-Shek regime. The
South Korean people have never
given the Rhee government their
support.
2-The Syngman Rhee govern-
ment has done nothing in the way
of land reform. In NorthkKorea
the feudal estates were broken up
and land given to the peasants.
3-A large part of the officer
corps of the South Korean army
were trained in Japanese war
schools and served in the Japan-
ese armed forces. These men are
hated by the South Koreans. In
contrast, as is admitted by all
newspaper correspondents, the of-
ficers and men of the North Kor-
ean army fought the Japanese
throughout World War II as our
allies.
4-The Korean people regard
our intervention as an imperialist
move, designed to bolster a re-
gime which they do not support.
(In the last election in South Kor-
ea the Syngman Rhee party got
only 48 out of 308).
The above give the essential
reasons why South Koreans will
not fight against their North Kor-
ean brothers, This is why they
leave their equipment and desert
from the army. One would think
the U.S. might have learned a few
things from the experience of the
French in Indo-China andythe
British in Malaya. The days of
Western domination of colonial
peoples are over. Nothing the U.S.
can do will turn back the tide of
revolution in Asia. The unfortu-
nate aspect of this situation is
that American boys must die for
the rotten and lost cause of im-
perialism.

Teachers' Ranks. . .
To the Editor:
I should like to know what some
of your subscribers think about
the different ranks of college in-
structors. We have everything
from assistant instructors to "full"
professors. Why cannot this sys-
tem of discrimination be put on a
democratic basis and do away with
a lot of unfair class distinction?
Some of my best teachers were
instructors and they remained so
indefinitely.

Puzzled Look . .
'o the Editor:
IF PHIL DAWSON wants to con-
sider himself "a hairless prim-
ate with a puzzled look"-well, I
guess that's his editorial right.
However, I like walking to classes.
-Jay Boll, '51
(EDITOR'S NOTE: Keep walking.
Maybe one of the classes will be in
anthropology. The word "primate"
refers to an order of mammals
which includes tarsiers, lemurs,
monkeys, apes, and man.)

THE BARON OF ARIZONA with Vin-
cent Price, Ellen Drew.
"THE BARON OF ARIZONA" had all the
elements of an exciting melodrama at
least, a real drama at best. Based on the
true story of a land office clerk of the 80's
who almost swindled the United States out
of the state of Arizona, the movie could have
used its technical wits to play up the stakes
in a colossal gamble.
Instead it drags. Vincent Price, who does
his usual finished job of acting, is unable
to save the show from worse than medi-
ocre writing and direction. Instead of in-
vesting the protagonist with the brilliance
which the story obviously provides and
the commanding charm and subtlety
which Mr. Price can so easily convey, the
writers have left him on a pretty barren.
dramatic limb.
A tremendous amount of drama could and
should have been inculcated in the scene in
which, after a decade of painful effort, the
brash claim is cooly made. Instead, the"
scene is as flat as the rest of the film. The
camera is too busy playing with Ellen Drew's
dimples to fasten on the explosive conflict
implicit in the action.
In addition, all the possibilities of deal-
