ithout War
It’s h&rdiy a quiet world even though there’s no
war at the moment except in South Viet* Nam.
People around the earth have been fighting, rioting,
marching, protesting, picketing, demonstrating and
even filibustering for something or against something.
Russia itself complained it got some of the protest
treatment from Americans visiting the Soviet Union,
And demonstrators who lie down are as much of a1
handful for police as demonstrators who stand up
and march.
Some of the ideas at stake in these struggles will
melt away, home; like the desire for peace and fair
treatment, never will. Not all the ideas for which
these people protest will prevail.
Some will. And in some cases the desired impact
on the public and governmental mind will be made.
Some of the demonstrators fight what they look on
as a hateful thought. Some want to stir the conscience
of mankind.
Some are concerned ^enly
Moscow Radio reported 11 Americans at a youth
camp in the Crimea were repriman^d for passing
out anti-Soviet pamphlets.
In Finland there were four nights of riots against
the Communist-sponsored World Youth Festival in
Helsinki. Mounted police, perhaps sympathetic with
those they were trying to disperse, used clubs.
In France young fanners, behind a slogan of farm

ATHENS — This tiny, strategic
country, where demaxacy was

case tor the success of the Mar-
shall Han and the Truman Doc-
trine. . ' *•
Fifteen years ago, when Harry
Truman took the boldest step of
the postwar period and announced
American aid for Greece and Tur-
key, this country was in the throes
of bitter pro- and anti - Communist
turmoil. Its northern borders were
infiltrated every day by Yugoslav
guerrillas, its treasury was bank-
rupt, and it seemed only a mat-
ter of time before it slipped be-
hind the iron curtain.

them.

Actually, Greece has been get-
ting only driblets of American aid
in recent years — $20,000,000 last
year, chiefly in surplus farm prod-
ucts. But this is the first year
without any U. S. aid, and the
cutoff came simultaneously with
American attempts to workout
help for Greece from West Ger-
many and more prosperous Mar-
shall Plan countries—so far not
forthcoming. But the cut-off also
came simultaneously with a con-
certed political drive against the
pro-American premier by his en-
emies in Parliament.
“So the psychological impact,”
said Caramanlis, “has been con-
siderable.
“Some countries use blackmail
to secure American aid,’’ the
Prime Minister continued. “They
want the American fire depart-
ment to come and put out the
fires of Communism.
“I could light some fires, but
I don’t. I could yell Communism,
but I don’t. We are the only NATO
country surrounded on three sides
by Communist countries — Alban-
ia on the Northwest, Yugoslavia
on the North, and Bulgaria oil the
East. But I am not yelling for
help. We are extremely .grateful
for your country’s great help in -v
the past, and would have no great
problems were it nor for our heavy
military budget in order to pull
' our oar in NATO.”
“Have you been invited to Mos-
i cow?” I asked.
“Yes, about every six months

reply. .

ring to a proposal made through
the premiers enemy, ex-premier
Venizelos, to buy all the extra
raisins, olive oil, and other Greek '
farm products which are hard to
sell.
“We have never accepted it,”
Caramanlis replied.

Consider for a moment some of

Of the 16 chairmen of Senate

are Democrats, 10 qf them voted
agafost the administration. These
include Sen. Carl Hayden, chair-
man of the Appropriations Com-

year for his upcoming campaign,

the federal Medicare program is
a dangerous and undesired piece
of legislation and should be dis-

It should be apparent by now
that tiie administration efforts to
stir widespread enthusiasm for
compulsory medical care, have
been a dismal failure. The down-
fall started with President Ken-
nedy’s explanation of the measure
at Madison Square Garden, and
(^position to the proposal has
been steadily mounting ever
since. Other congressional offices
confirm the fact that this single
appearance by the President
spurred constituent response and
skyrocketed the percentage of
those imposed to the toll.
It occurs to me that the Presi-
dent’s desire to purge foe Con-

shortsightedness on the part of the
White House. The series of legis-
