WHERE |] SEE - HIS JUNGLE WITCH? *s Behalf Country WASHINGTON, (# —Oscar_ Ew- ing, federal security administra- tor, said Saturday his controver- sial overseas journey was under- taken. to counteract Communist propaganda that America has no welfare programs for its citizens. Ewing reported to Presicent Tru- man at the White House here on his two-months trip. It included visits to Pakistan, India, Burma, Thailand, The Philippines and Japan. Rep, Gross (R-Iowa) asked Pres- ident Truman last Nov, 18 to for- bid the trip, calling it a waste of money since Ewing was soon to retire from publie office. Truman refused, telling newsmen it was none of Gross’ business. Ewing told reporters at- the White House that he does not plan to make any written report on his journey to Congress or the new Eisenhower administration. Last Dec. 5 Comptroller Lindsay Warren told Rep. Gross he had asked Ewing to make a complete statement justifying the trip, after he returned, as head of the gov- ernment’s General Accounting Of- fice, Warren must approve gov- ernment expense vouchers before they are paid. Ewing reported to Secretary of State Acheson Friday. He said that he ‘ound intense interest and understanding among groups to whom he had talked on his trip, of the “American way of life’” and lauded the State Department’s in- formation service programs in each of the countries he visited. He said: ‘“‘We can help counier- act Communist propaganda with the simple facts of what we in America are doing tor individuals and their families through our wel- | fare programs.” Ewing, who returns to. New York this week after 5% years as | boss of the Federal Secusiy Au- ministration, said he has no plans for the future. Chapter Ten “THEY had dined, and the coffee was set before them.

Her mother was | still up waiting for her, as she had been every time she had been out with Joe. But the usual feel- ing of exasperation did not arise tonight. She was too happy, too | excited, lost in a magic, newly created world which belonged only to her and Joe. His arm went along the back of | the seat, drew her close, and their lips met again in the darkness. His back was to the window, and be- neath his kiss her eyes closed. She did not see the curtains open, and then drop abruptly closed again. He whispered, “Tomorrow?” She nodded. “Ye: “Goodnight, Anthea. “Goodnight, Joe.” As she shut the front door be- \hind her her mother came to the sitting-room door. Her face was white and tired. and she looked at Anthea’s flushed cheeks and star- Ned eyes strangely, her own big dark eyes curiously hungry and fierce. “You shoulcn’t sit up, Mummy,” Anthea protested. “It’s too late, jand you look so tired.

I'm going to ask Daddy for the day off, so that 1 can see him. I hope I can do I hope I get it.” Marian stopped, her hand on the banister, turned, and looked down, her eyes wide and bright. “Will he be staying long?” “Overnight, that’s all. He has to see his producer on Tuesday. Then he'll go straight back. He'll let me know right away if Tll do and when I have td go.” Marian suddenly began to speak in an urgent and imploring voice. “Anthea, I don't often ask you to do anything for me. But please give this up. I hate the whole thought of this adventure. I will make up’ for it in any way you like. I'll take you abroad for @ holiday myself, if you wish... but please give this up.” “If you could give me one real reason,” Anthea slowly. “Isn't the fact that I loathe the idea enough?” “No, I'm afraid not.” Marian shrugged, .half-turned toward her bedroom door. She said, “You think you're in love with Joe Carlotti, don’t you?” “Yes.” Marian was startled, although she was used to Anthea’s trans- parent frankness. “And is he in love with you?” “I think so.” “Only think so?” “I'm sure he is.” “Oh,” Maria exclamation was full of despair and disgust. “An- thea, you are a fool and a child. Don’t you see it’s just part of a ee to make a young girl fall in love? They don’t mean it—they | are not sincere.” “How do you know?” said An- thea curiously. “Don’t be so stupid! Jim wanted to marry you, and you laughed at the idea. Has this young Carlotti even mentioned marriage? If you weren't so infatuated by the idea of these people, you would know T was right.” Anthea followed her slowly up the stairs. “Jim mentioned mar- riage,” she said thoughtfully, al- though her eyes were suddenly alight with laughter. “Joe didn’t, But Jim did not mention love; Joe did.

Kennan. Keenan is assigned as U. S. Em voy to Moscow but ii. ~ to fill that post for many monius. The Soviet government barred him after he publicly compared its iso- lation of foreigners in Moscow to the practices of the Nazis before World War Two. [PIAILIATTIEMMSIL1TIDIE!S) LX) IR BET IEINAINIT| Lal AIP IT HEP IVIRIEIE| AS PERS The policy break has developed over Dulles’ declared intention to use all sorts of peaceful measures —he has not specified precisely what he would do—for the promo- tion of the spirit of liberty in Soviet Satellite countries and eventually the liberation of those countries. Dulles told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Thursday that he was certain such a policy on the part of the United States govern- ment could be developed and made effective and that those who said it could not simply did not know what they were talking about. He advo- cated “moral pressure and the weight of propaganda” to achieve the purpose. Persons familiar with thinking inside the State Department have been aware since the presidential political campaign, when Dulles first amplified his proposal, that many career officials in the State Department disagree with his the- ‘sis. They believe the policy he ad- ‘voeates would be extremely risky. Kennan spoke out Fri. night in an address to the Pennsylvania State Bar Association at Scranton. Ye did not use Duiles’ name, but criticized “those who poim to what Rift Develops On Poliey Toward Russia the “containment policy” which be- came the basis of United States policy toward Russia. The essence of the containment policy was to create sti th among the free nations to preBent any expansion of Soviet power, and count on either the eventual in- ternal breakdown of the Commu- nist system or its mellowing to a point where the cold war could be settled. During the election campaign Dulles assailed the containment policy as inadequate and called for peaceful steps which would put the free world on the offensive and would exert pressures toward the rolling back of Soviet power. Kennan has held top positions in the State Department as chief of Secretary Acheson's policy plan- ning staff and as department coun- selor’ prior to his designation as ambassador to Moscow last spring.
