Its situations are plausible but not trite, its stars are actors who can actually act, and it provides adventure that isn't r+ ian- ticized to the incredible. As the title suggests, the plot revolves around a key--a common, ordinary key to a common ordinary door to a common, ordinary flat. The important thing about the key is that it provides access not only to the fiat, but to a woman-a very lovely woman with a tender heart and a sympathetic understanding of nerve-wracked sailors. The sailors involved are all tugboat commanders, members of the E OLD Eisenhower-Dulles ineptness at oping with the Russians, Arab nationalism, just about everything and everybody ,else he world diplomatic scene has contribut- 'hat may be the telling blow to this coun- prestige abroad. a result of the hasty and ill-advised in- 3n of Lebanon by United States forces, country's almost sacrosanct -- and cer- y "holier than thou" - position in the ed Nations is on the "brink of disaster. tries such as Japan, which normally would r consider decrying a United States ma- er, have done so. That this decrial is ly and respectfully worded does not les- .ts significance. fact, the Japanese resolution may be the chance for this country's diplomatic sal- n in the Middle East. It provides for the gthening of UN observer groups in Leba- and would permit the United States to dfully disengage its troops. The Japanese ution nevertheless is an effective - if light ,p at United States policy. It offers very sympathy with this country's underly- contention that there is an urgent need ,rmed intervention - by the United States ae UN - in Lebanon. T SO STRANGELY, the Japanese plan ices an almost certain Russian veto in the rity Council. The Russians would undoub'- like to keep the United States "on the " in the Middle East as long as possible. ; the USSR can cement its relations with er and step up its self-portrait as peace- g friend of the small countries and pro- r of summit conferences. contrast to the United States, the Rus- sians, at the present time, look very "good" in- deed. Only a fool could believe that it takes 8,000 marines and paratroops plus the whole sixth fleet to protect 2,500 American nationals in Lebanon as President Eisenhower an- nounced. Considering the almost comical nature of the Lebanese rebellion (in a recent article, The Na- tion described the casual attitude of Lebanese rebels and the government forces supposedly out to "crush the rebellion" and noted that telephone conversations between rebel and government leaders are common) and UN Sec- retary-General Dag Hammarskj old's report on the lack of external aid to the rebels, the United States motives appear highly question- able. The Russians can only benefit from pointing out the real reasons for this coun- try's intervention: to keep "friendly" govern- ments .in power and protect United States oil interests. UNTIL and unless the UN General Assembly passes a modified version of the Japanese resolution and United States troops are with- drawn from Lebanon, this country will remain in its deepest diplomatic abyss of the last five years. Unable to extricate ourselves without fearful loss of diplomatic face, we will have to face the misgivings of neutrals such as Swe- den and India, the loss of Arab and other new nationalist forces as allies, and the threaten- ing possibility of a new Korea., Our only rewards will probably be the re- tention for a few more years of Anglo-Ameri- can oil holdings and a few pot-shots taken at navy aircraft by irate Lebanese. Eisenhower and Dulles have done it again. -LEWIS COBURN J - -a V It V ti... ' b..,r .t sa. - - * U Lt , td al-t u r*%6'"TWE A41LA A LkfS .1 0OU"NAL..

Under an opinion set d n by Attorney General Paul L. Adams, Rep. c ,mond C. Wurzel (R-Port Huron) has al- b iy had his check withheld, and others p ear to fall into the same category. r be four men in question are members of e State House of Representatives most of time; the "conflicting job" in question is, o ach case, a local school board office. r s in most political squabbles, the affair hash humorous aspects. (Picture the various dire e ibilities for one man to hold so much centrated power. Or the many schemes he d concoct in two such offices to fleece the h; uspecting people of life, liberty 'and other f nrted inalienable rights.) There may also be c e sort of significance to the fact that all P men are Republicans. t o the men who are being washed down the t in in the clean-up frenzy, however, it is no t thing matter. INTERPRETING THE NEWS: CTUALLY, of course, the two jobs, simply by being public offices, can easily be considered n conflict with each other, and the advisability of such a ruling Is perhaps incontestable. But he whole affair has been handled in a way that an only be described as high-handed, the esult amounting to nothing so much as an ex post facto decision. Rep. Wurbel's checks stopped the day the decision was handed dwn. He was given no hance to resign his position on the school board, or to make any choice between his two positions. Yet, if no actual legal violation occur- ed, this was the least which might have been xpected. Obviously, however, there was no infraction of the law. If such were the case, the same uling would apply to another legislator who had held two such jobs, but who was lucky enough to resign the lesser one in time. One is inclined to wonder what sort of handling these cases would have had if the our men were Democrats, rather than Republi- cans seeking re-election in an election year. Perhaps this is an unfair accusation against he Attorney General, but the tactics used by he administration in these cases unfortunately ends to prompt such speculation. -SUSAN HOLTZER HERE IS the latest on the faste moving Near Eastern situation, based on exclusive diplomatic dis- patches. 1) President Chamoun has told American commanders that United States troops are not to fire on the rebels. American com- manders have countered with the query as to how they can expect to bring order if they are to treat the rebels as sacred cows. Presi- dent Chamoun's reply has been, in effect: "Give me until July 24 when we hold elections and then everything will be straightened out." 2) CHAMOUN has conferred with his Army Chief of Staff~ Gen. Fuad Shehab, telling him that he has been picked to, be the new President of Lebanon but that he must form a government of outstanding people which will not include rebels. General She- hab has replied that it is impos- sible ,to form a national govern- ment without inluding rebels. There are some rebels, he points out, who are against Nasser and should be in the new cabinet. As election day approaches there has been no agreement. 3) Some of President - Cha- moun's own people who have been loyal to him are now split over the landing of American troops. An unofficial tabulation of the ~ Lebanon parliament shows ap- proximately two-thirds of its members against the American landing. General Shehab has been unable to getthe cooperation of all his military subordinates in w o r k i n g with United States troops. Even the Lebanese ambas- sador in Washington, Nadim Di- mechkie, has been opposed to our troop landing. 4) The new Iraqi government has called in the West German ambassador and told him that Iraq is ready to carry on business as usual. The German was the first ambassador the new govern- ment contacted, presumably be- cause Germany does a tremendous busines with Iraq. The German ambassador was told that the new government would not be pro-Russian, was ready to sell oil and carry on as before - except as a republic. 5) THE ISRAEL government has served notice that if King Hussein falls and there is a turn- over ,of government in Jordan, Is- rael will not be bound by its pre- vious armistice agreement. In oth- er words, Israel wili invade Jor- dan in case Jordan falls into Nas- ser's hands. * * * 6) The Ambassadors of Pakis- tan, Iran and Turkey, all mem- bers of the onetime Baghdad pact alliance, were called to the State Department and given the results of the Dulles-Selwyn Lloyd con- ferences. The gist of the Anglo- American talks was that Ameri- can Marines would stay in Leba- non and British troops in Jordan for the time being. There would be no Anglo-American attempt to intervene in Iraq and it was doubted that King Hussein of Jor- dan had the military strength to intervene. His Arab Legion is the best army in the Near East but he could not be sure of its loyalty on any campaign outside Jordan- ian borders. There has been definite consid- eration given to the retention of British troops in Jordan under a plan similar to that operating for years under Gen. Glubb Pasha; the British military adviser. 7) The State Department is considering calling in the repre- sentatives of friendly govern- ments, especially those receiving foreign aid from the United States, and given them a flat ul- timatum that either they vote with the United States for a 'United Nations Lebanon or we members of the tralist bloc. police force in consider them pro-Soviet-neu- A surprising number of so- called friends whom the United States had aided with millions of dollars have suddenly decided to become aloof and vote with the Arab bloc on the question of a United Nations police force. Pres- ident Eisenhower had been bank- ing on a UN force to take over from the Marines. IT'S ALWAYS risky to predict. what Russia will do but here is my own best conclusion as to whether the Kremlin will engage in open hostilities in defense of the Near East: 1) The Russian growl following the landing of American troops in Lebanon is not half as savage as that which followed the landing of French and British troops at Suez. At that time the Russians even threatened rocket attacks on London and Paris. They literally screamed vituperation. The noises from the Kremlin today aren't anywhere near so violent. 2) There will be astute propa- ganda work among the Kurdish tribes of Iran and Turkey in or- der to get them to sabotage and worry the two chief countries neighboring Iraq. 3) The Russians will cause just as much trouble as possible for the United States, but my belief is they won't risk global war. NOTE - Global war for us would be damaging and disas- trous. But global war for Russia right now would be equally so - first, because her lines of commu- nication inside Russia are not as good as ours inside the U.S.A.; second, because American long- range bombers are still our best safeguard against Russian attack. They can still make mincemeat of Russian cities. (Copyright 1958 by Bell Syndicate, Inc.) "Red Cross of the Sea," whose duty War II U-Boat Alley in tiny, virtually unarmed seagoing tugs 'o rescue crippled ships. The total Firepower of one of these sitting ducks is an ancient (1926) pom- pom, which usually jams at the zritical moment. Going on daily suicide missions, then, is understandably tough on a man's nerves, and maintaining one's nerve and his sanity is a problem. THIS IS where Stella comes in. Stella (Sophia Loren) is a young and very beautiful woman, over- whelmed with grief at the loss of her first love, who devotes herself to consoling other men waiting to die as he did. Access to Stella cqmes by a ritual concernedwith the key. Each man who uses the key must have a 'duplicate made and pass it on to another who will succeed him .When we first meet her, she is living with Captain Chris Ford (Trevor Howard), an old friend of Donald Ross (William Holden), the hero. Chris is shortly killed, and Ross, to whom he has given the key, takes over his fiat and his woman. The succession soon promises to be broken as love blooms. But then Stella las a premonition; and, if the past is any indication, Ross will not survive his next mission. Ross, however, doesn't believe in premonitions; he's determined not to die, regardless. But at sail- ing time, his assurance collapses, and he passes on the key. The tug encounters a U-Boat and comes under heavy fire. Ross gives the order to abandon ship, then brings her 'around and rams the sub, Everything blows up, Ross goes overboard, and ... . The ending is not happy, but its at least hopeful. SOPHIA LOREN as Stella is a standout, even among the gen- erally excellent portrayals turned in by her co-stars. Her role is the most, demanding in that it calls for more than a convincing reci- tation of lines. Her part depends for its impact primarily on facial expressions. Miss Loren proves herself equal to the challenge. Her acting is, sensitive and convincing as she runs the gamut of emotions, ex- pressing resignation, tenderness, profound grief, love, and (rarely) joy better with a look than with words. William Holden and Trevor Howard, though their roles don't require as much, are excellent in their parts. All-in-all, "The Key" is a good show. It compensates more than adequately for a dull short and a cartoon so bad it defies descrip- tion. The audience did it justice by drowning out the sound track with hisses. --Edward Geruldsen Sluggish " 1AID IN PARIS," a stale and sluggish French sentimental comedy, belabors the familiar the- sis that a virginal young woman of nineteen, naive beyond her years, and with all the gifts and appetites that nature can endow her, can woo a sophisticated and weary bachelor of thirty, and, in the end, make an hohest man of him. Daniel Gelin and Dany Robin, two generally attractive and reli- able performers, play the reluctant bachelor and the pursuing maid. Mr. Gelin provides the film with the few agreeable moments it offers: an excellent light comedian, he is completely at ease under even the most trying circumstances, and uses his subtle and ironic face to endow a humorless script with a little comic vitality. Miss Robin is another matter. Her idea of nineteen is fairly re- mote from the realities. She bounces, she pouts, she grimaces, she poses prettily, she is alternately ingenuous and coy, she smiles with vacuous insouciance; but within this wide range of the pseudo- adolescent emotions and attitudes, she tends to become very tiresome, and it is difficult after a while. * * * THE FILM opens in Geneva where Miss Robin is boarded un- happily at a very proper school for young ladies. Most of the dialogue is of the "No girl ever takes a bath in a man's flat" variety, and there are the usual misunderstandings and confusions (Mr. Gelin has a rather forbidding fiancee whose jealousy he doesn't wish to provoke), cul- minating in a half-hearted battle royal at a nightclub, where Miss Robin, out of sheer rancor, under- takes a strip-tease, much to the dismay and shock of her puritan- ical inspector, who finally inter- venes to save her from overex- posure. The notion of the inviolability of innocence, even when it seems determined on its own violation, is not a new one: "The Moon Is Blue" labored the point until there was nothing left of it. And the triumph of virtue over lechery exemplified in the film of Colette's "Gigi," with its high wit and genuine comic insight, probably was the definitive work on the sub- ject. "Maid in Paris" is but pallid imitation. - Bernhard Kendler -4 it is to run the perils of the World CAMPUS: 'Par is Maid' d DAILY OFFCIAL-BULLETIN Choice Left to Soviets1 'COUNTRY BOY': Nasser Reacts to Past A ffronts By 3.

THERE IS a certain logic in the belief in some quarters that Egypt's Nasser realizes that East- West conflict in the Middle East would sub- merge him and his Arab internationalist move- ment. He also knows that, once in the area, the Soviet Union would never get out any more than she has out of Eastern Europe. The position of, the Hussein government in Jordan has been temporarily secured, and the Western powers have deterred any idea the King might have had of staking his small forces against the Baghdad army. Turkey is reported to have been similarly restrained from a first reaction that she should move into Iraq in self-defense. That leaves the Soviets'to choose between very risky intervention and the appearance, for once, of being a paper tiger. The Allies realize fully that to put her in such a position is dan- gerous. That is why they are now publicizing their realization that when Middle Eastern settle- ment time comes the Soviet Union will have to be in on it. They want to ease the strain on the Kremlin at the same time they want to halt its exploita- tion of Arab nationalism.' By WILTON WYNN BEIRUT WP)-Gamal Abdel Nas- ser is a country boy who came to town from the remote hinterland of Egypt. Out of a bleak back- ground among the have-nots, he has worked up to opportunistic power that may affect the fate of the world. Now he has made such a splash that all the Middle East - and much of the' world beyond -is choosing up sides to fight for or against him in a showdown crisis. And for the second time in less than two years the West is throw- ing military might at him. * * * TO YOUNG Arab nationalists everywhere Nasser may be the most popularArab since the prophet Mohamed emerged in, the seventh century A.D. or perhaps since Saladin, who repulsed the Christian crusaders a few cen- turies later. Anyway, he holds a promise of revival of lost glories. In the West, Nasser is regard- ed as the greatest threat to West- ern interests outside the Iron Cur- tain. What were the circumstances that made the country boy into an international issue? It all started in the dirty village of Beni Mer, 500 miles up the Nile from Cairo. Nasser's father was a badly paid postal clerk. The family lived in poverty in an area popu- lated by rich feudal landlords. The rich families there still boast that they never spoke to the Abdel Nasser family. The Abdel Nassers moved to the city when Gamal was still a boy. In the big town Gamal moved into a cosmopolitan world where he was regarded as inferior simply because he was an Egyptian. In Cairo, in those days, it was a big advantage to be a foreigner. If you had a foreign passport you could commit murder in broad daylight and Egyptian law could not touch you. Foreigners were exempt from almost all taxation. Arabic was the language of the Egyptians - but the street signs were in English. The royal fam- ily knew French, English, Italian and Turkish, but almost no Arabic. * * * IN SHORT, Cairo was a foreign- ers' paradise. , One hundred per cent Egyptians. were laughed at and despised.
