T HE HOUSE Un-American Activities
Committee is slated for another fateful
session in Detroit this fall. So announced
Michigan Red prober Kit Clardy last week.
Rep. Clardy promised that at least 200 per-
sons never publicly linked with Commun-
ism will be named.
This trip, the hearings will take on all
the flavor of a Ringling show with complete
radio and TV coverage. Fortunately at the
time of the last hearings in Detroit in 1952,
Sam Rayburn banned TV and radio.
What * particularly interests us in Ann
Arbor is Clardy's statement that the testi-
mnoy will uncover Communist activity to
some extent in schools and colleges. We im-
mediately wonder whether any professors
here will be persecuted in the same manner
as was Prof. Byron Darling at Ohio State
who refused to answer in committee wheth-
er or not he was a Communist but who
afterwards denied vigorously that he was
a Red. Prof. Darling, who received his Ph.D.
here at Ann Arbor in 1940, was fired from
OSU because of his refusal to testify.
If any Professor Darlings were to be
turned up in Ann Arbor during the com-
ing investigation, just what would be the
reaction of the University and the faculty?
The Michigan Alumnus, organ of the
University Alumni Association in its current
issue has printed an excellently prepared
and carefully unbiased survey of 25 faculty
members, asking each one what his attitude
would be to one of his colleagues who might
refuse to answer on grounds of the fifth
amendment.
Happily, the Alumnus reports that most
of the professors questioned "would not pre-
judge a colleague because he had refused to
speak and had invoked the fifth amend-
ment. 'Refusal by itself, offered one faculty
member, 'is not grounds for action one way
or another . . . Rights are intended to be
used and their use is not grounded in ac-
tion'."
The Alumnus article concludes by claim-
ing "there will be no political scarlet letter
at Michigan. The faculty is alert and keenly
aware of its responsibilities."
There were minority reports to be sure.
Some professors felt that refusal to ans-
wer questions was ample grounds for the
discharge. One said "A faculty member
is duty bound to come clean. And if he
refuses he has no place on the Michigan
faculty." But the report claimed that in
general the faculty questioned shared the
view that the exercise of the fifth amend-
ment is still a privilege and cannot be in
itself a basis for expulsion from the fa-
culty.
The Alumnus article was not only well
prepared but was extremely timely. And it
gave hope that Michigan faculty members
will neither turn their backs on their fel-
low colleagues who may be maligned by
shoddy testimony nor turn their campus
into two armed camps.
It is a testimony to the good sense of our
faculty that so many realized that rights
are not to be turned on and off at will. The
Darling case was an example of a man who
refused to testify on moral grounds and yet
was proud to publicly admit that he was not
a Communist. We may think-he was foolish
for not making the statement in hearing,
but this is beside the point. Ostracizing a
man like Darling is the worst type of guilt
by association.
If the committee hits Michigan, it is
hoped that our campus community will
stick together in defense of rights that all
of us enjoy.
Pattern of History
SALUTE the indomitable spirit of an
indomitable people."
A few days ago this statement was made
by an intelligent and respected man.
I am just young enough that certain hor-
rifyingly vivid pictures of these same "in-
domitable" people have not yet succumbed
to the concentrated efforts of national
brainwashers and history erasers.
When I was five years old these "indomi-
tables" annexed Austria. When I was six,
they took over Czechoslovakia. Their op-
ponents' outcrys were muzzled by threats
of imprisonment, torture and economic ruin.
A blitzkreig of only three weeks subdued
Poland. Norway and Denmark were occupied
-no resistance.
Netherlands, Belgium and Luxemburg
fell to the "indomitable." Two weeks be-
fore my third grade teacher dismissed the
class for summer vacation, they entered .
Paris and a little later began a sea and
air battle with Great Britain,
By the time Russia was invaded a year
later, Mrs. Murphy's fourth grade homeroom
was competing for the prizes in Defense
stampi contests and no one was shielding
youth from the posters of "indomitables"
kicking children and raping their mothers.

As the war progressed we stamped tin

when we pledged allegiance to the flag we
thought of our Allies. Among those Allies

AT RACKHAM LECTURE HALL
John Kollen,. pianist
THE PROGRAM played by J Kollen
would have delighted the hea ;t of the
late Artur Schnabel. It consisted of Mozart's
Sonata in C, K. 330, Brahms' Sonata in F
minor,. op. 5, and Beethoven's Sonata in
E-Flat, op. 31, no. 3. Mr. Kollen is a mu-
sician and pianist of exceptional ability.
The notes may not always have been there
in the quantity and exactitude specified by
the composers, but the musical understand-
ingwas there, coupled with a clear projec-
tion of the pianist's concept of the music..
Even when one disagreed with his inter-
pretations, as I did at times, it was always
evident thatshe had arrived at these inter-
pretations thoughtfully and adhered to them
consistently. There are, in addition, not
many pianists with such ability to "sing"
a melody and to control gradations of
touch, from extreme legato to extreme
staccato.
This last quality was particularly evi-

Adlai Stevenson's toast to the "indomi-
table Germans, a few days ago, is almost
inconspicuous in July, 1953.
Today it is the Germans who are hearty
and wholesome and industrious, the Rus-

I do not wish to criticize the change of
pace. However, I must admit confusion.
When wars were fought for conquest of
land, the victors emerged with this land and
conquered nations were made, at least, tem-
porarily impotent.
But this is the jet age, the age of speed.
There is no time to debate how long a
conquered nation shall be subjugated.
Within a few years of VE day, the world
Is again divided into two camps. Ene-
mies are allies and allies-bitter, hated
adversaries.
As George Orwell has noted:
"Actions are held to be good or bad, not
on their own merit but according to who
does them, and there is almost no kind of
outrage-torture, the use of hostages, forc-
ed labor, mass. deportations, imprisonment
without trial, forgery, assassination, the
bombing of civilians-which does not change
its moral color when committed by 'our
side'."
War, victory, ersing history and rewrit-
ing atrocities has taken on an invariable

with dynamics, which seemed to result in
a Romanticized conception of classic
music.*"I was somehow reminded of an
organist unable to stop tampering with
the swell pedal. Otherwise, the playing
was excellent, with lovely phrasing and,
we note thankfully, the slow movement
played at the proper tempo-not too slow,
in other words.
The Brahms is an early work, with many
traits of the composer's maturity already
apparent. The melodic materials are uneven
at times, but it is an impressive and strik-
ing work, nevertheless. It is also very long,
being almost the only five movement piano
sonata within my limited knowledge.
Mr. Kollen worked heroically with it,
and came through with banners flying.
He managed to sustain the line of the
long slow movement without allowing
the listener's attention to drop once. The
rest of the sonata was played just as
successfully.
The Beethoven Sonata which concluded
the recital is one of my favorites. It's a
rather curious niece. somewhat removed
MATTEROF FACT
By STEWART ALSOP
BERLIN-Lavrenty Beria was murdered
in Berlin. He is unquestionably the most
prominent victim of the revolution in East-
ern Germany which started in the Soviet
sector of Berlin. But viewed from Berlin,
Beria's fate takes on an added, special mean-
ing-
Among all the puppet rulers and procon-
suls everywhere in the Soviet Empire, there
must now be a terrible fear and insecurity.
It was precisely such fear and insecurity
within the German Communist regime which
three weeks ago led to the East German re-
volution. Take, for example, the present
situation of Wilhelm Zaisser, the East Ger-
man Secret Police Chief, famous for his
polished boots and his utter ruthlessness.
Like almost every satellite Secret Police
Chief, Zaisser is accounted a Beria man.
There are now widespread reports here that
Soviet proconsul Smeyenov has returned
from Moscow to Berlin with orders to send
Zaisser the way of Beria. The next victim
may be, instead, the aged Pieck, the bril-
liant, evil Ulbricht, the oily turncoat Grote-
wohl-or even Smeyenov himself who has
also been accounted a Beria man. Whoever
may be next, in every satellite state, people
must be asking who is safe and who is doom-
ed, who really has power and who has none.
When people begin asking such questions,
a time of great danger has come for any
police state. It was because people began
asking such questions that the Soviet zone
of Germany has experienced a revolution.
It is important to understand the na-
ture of this revolution. It was, to start
with, a genuine revolution. Its objective
was to seize power, not from the Soviets
but from the German Communist re-
gime. Within the limits of this objective,
the revolution succeeded. On June 17, in
city after city, the writ of the Communist
regime simply ceased to run. Premier
Grotewohl has himself admited, in an un-
guarded moment, that power was restored
to the regime only thanks to "Our Rus-
sian Brothers"-for which read Soviet
tanks and troops.
The oddest aspect of this revolution was
that it precisely followed the pattern which
Marx and Engels used fondly to forecast-
and which (except perhaps more than eighty
years ago, at the time of the Paris com-
mune) never really happened on earth, un-
til last month. Marx and Engels set two
main conditions for a "revolutionary situa-
tion." One was that the lot of the oppressed
workers should become intolerable. The
second was that their oppressors should be-
come confused and indecisive. In East Ger-
many, the first condition has existed for
years. The second condition was met only
last month when, on June 11, the whole pol-
icy of the German Communist puppet re-
gime was suddenly thrown into reverse by
the Kremlin. The new policy of "easement
for the populace" was accompanied by
breast-beating confessions of cardinal sins
by the puppet rulers, and insecurity, fear,
confusion and indecision everywhere within
the regime.
* * *
T HUS, AS THE more intellectual workers
leaders are fond of pointing out, a "re-
volutionary situation" was created. Is it not
possible that the fear and uncertainty fol-
lowing on the purging of Beria will create a
similar "revolutionary situation" through-
out the whole Soviet Empire?
As far as an actual seizure of power is
concerned, the answer is almost certain.
ly found in the eperience of East Ger-
many. Many workers' leaders, themselves
devout Marxists, had the monumental
naivete to expect the revolutionary Rus-
sians to applaud and approve their suc-
cessful application of Marxist-Leninist
principles. Instead, of course, the Red
army crushed the uprisings in a matter
of hours. The Red army can do the same
job again anywhere in the Soviet Em-
pire at any time. There should be no il-
lusions on this score. Yet the fact that
the Red army had to do the job in Ger-
many is itself enormously significant. The
East German uprising proved to the So-
viets the worthlessness in a moment of
crisis of their local instruments of power,
the German "peoples' police," and the
"peoples' army."
If the job has to be done again in Ger-
many, it will again have to be done by the
Red army-and what is true of Germany is
almost certainly true elsewhere. As this is
written, the Kremlin is still attempting to
shore up its artificial puppet regimes by
continuing the policy of "easement for the
populace." But here in Germany, at least,
the workers' appetite has grown by what it
has fed on. Already, the word is being pass-
ed in the factories, "again in August."
The only alternative to a policy of ap-
peasement is a policy of brutal repression-
and the arrest of Beria may be the signal
for just such a policy. But this policy will
mean the use of the Red Army as a naked
instrument of Soviet power throughout the
Soviet Empire. This will strain the re-
sources even of the huge Red army to the
utmost-and this at a time of a savage in-
ternal convulsion within the Kremlin. In
this situation i i snot inconnivaeh that

DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN
WASHINGTON
MERRY-GO-ROUND
WITH DREW PEARSON
WASHINGTON-C. D. Jackson, Ike's dynamic psychological warfare
adviser, deserves chief credit for pushing through the $15,000,000
food gift to East Germany which has put Moscow on the spot. Cer-
tain State Department officials also deserve credit.
But the peculiar thing is that for several weeks they couldn't get
any action at the top. That was why the food offer was not made at
the height of the East Berlin restlessness. Secretary of State Dulles,
asked at a press conference over a week ago whether he had considered
sending food to East Berliners, said no. He seemed puzzled at the
question as if the idea had never crossed his mind though the food
plan had been hammered in this column and others for three weeks.
However, Dulles promptly sent a cable to U.S. High Commissioner
Conant in Germany asking what he thought of the idea and got
back a favorable reply.
Meanwhile, in the White House, the food plan for East
Germany had got sidetracked by two things: 1. An attempt to get
a much wider authorization for the President to use surplus food
in any area in any amount and at any time; and 2. A piece of
political throat cutting aimed at Senator Hubert Humphrey,
Minnesota Democrat by his Republican rival Congressman Walter
Judd also of Minnesota and an old freind of Ike's who plans to
run against Humphrey next year.
This is what made Democratic Senators sore, made them accuse
the administration of playing politics with foreign policy.
As early as last January, Humphrey began proposing that U.S.
farm surpluses be sent to have-not nations. On June 8, Senator
Humphrey after securing White House approval introduced a bill to
that end. Three weeks later the White House pulled the rug out from
under Humphrey and withdrew its support. Then it submitted vir-
tually the same identical word-for-word bill as Humphrey's but under
Republican sponsorship and with no limits on time or spending.
What happened was that when Congressman Judd heard that his
Democratic rival might get credit for solving the farm-surplus prob-
lem, he phoned the White House in a lather and demanded that the
Humphrey bill be stopped.
KNOWLAND SAYS NO
IRONY IS THAT THE administration had actually helped Humph-
rey draft his bill. This was brought out behind closed doors of
the Senate Foreign Relations Committee as it was about to approve the
Humphrey amendment unanimously. Just before the vote, Califor-
nia's Senator Bill Knowland, acting majority leader, walked in.
Senators exhibit the written transcript as proof of what happened.
"It seems to me, I having just come in and this perhaps being a
desirable amendment," Knowland observed, "it seems to me that it is
rather far-reaching . . . Before it actually goes into the bill, even on
a tentative basis, I would like to have the judgment of the Treasury
Department and the Commodity Credit Corporation and perhaps the
agriculture people on this, because this is of considerable importance,
and I do not think we ought to act too hastily. This is the first time
I have seen this particular language and I do not think we ought to
put it into the bill until we have at least had a chance to study it a
bit and have some testimony."
However Tyler Wood, representing the Mutual Security
Agency at the closed-door meeting, spoke up: "I believe, Senator
Knowland, our people discussed this, when they were asked to
draft it, quite fully with the Bureau of the Budget, the Agricul-
ture Department, I believe-and, I know-the State Department;
and I believe the Treasury Department was also consulted. I could
check on that."
"I wish you would," suggested Knowland.
Wood then left the room to telephone the various agencies. He
returned a few minutes later and announced: "Mr. Chairman, I find
out that this language has been thoroughly checked and agreed by
all the departments mentioned."
* * * *
THE AMAZED AIKEN
DESPITE THIS, the White House promised Judd to block the
Humphrey amendment. So, when it came up for a Senate vote
three weeks later, Agriculture chairman George Aiken, Vermont Re-
publican, made the amazing statement: "I have had (from the White
House) this afternoon a communication to the effect that if the
senator from Minnesota undertook to give any impression that they
had approved this amendment, that definitely is not so."
Aiken then offered an amendment in behalf of the White House.
With two exceptions-no limitation on time or money-it was almost
word-for-word what Humphrey had already introduced. Aiken could-
n't believe it. The administration hadn't even gone to the trouble of
changing Humphrey's wording.
When the Minnesota Senator pointed this out, the amazed
Aiken asked: "Does theSenator from Minnesota understand why
he received a copy of the President's bill, which I introduced to-
day, over three weeks before the White House cleared the bill and
before it was sent to the Senator from Vermont?"
"I never knew that I had a pipeline into the White House with
such good connections," laughed Humphrey.
Afterward, when Aiken learned all the facts, he apologized.
