Reds Will Try To Take Their Turn At Bat By JAMES MARLOW WASHINGTON W® — Although President Eisenhower is still at bat, one thing seems sure about the Communists: They'll try to take their turn at bat, probably aftér waiting to see whether he bunts or homers. In this opening innirg of his ad- ministration he has put the Reds on the defensive, at least tempo- rarily and psychologically, by making them wonder about his next move and how far he’ll go. This is particularly so in his de- cision to deneutralize Formosa and to ask Congress to repudiate secret agreements of the past. He was half-vague on Formosa and quite vague on the secret agreements. Even though Eisenhower has demonstrated aggressiveness right from the start, the value of any move he makes will have to be judged by its effectiveness. The Communists, in Russia and | China, are also aggessive. And one of Eisenhower’s problems is to see Your Child WILL LIKE THIS NEW COUGH HELP that the Red cannot turn some of his own efforts against him. He was half-vague on Formosa, simply saying he would tell the Seventh Fleet to let the Formosan Chinese Nationalists attack the mainland, without saying whether he’d tell the fleet to stop a Red attack on Formosa. It has been as- sumed here he would tell the fleet just that, if the occasion arose. As for secret agreements, about all he said was that he’d ask Con- gress to approve a resolution de- nouncing them. Just what agrees ments did he mean? Until he ex- plains, there can be only guessing. Most guessing has been on Yalta. At that Crimean city, just before the end of World War II, President Roosevelt, Prime Minister Church- ill and Generalissimo Stalin reach- ed a number of agreements which fell into two main parts: 1. On Eastern Europe which had been overrun by tbe Nazis. The three agreed the people cf those liberated countries should elect representative governments of their choosing at free elections. 2. On Russian demands in Asia. As the price of coming into the war against Japan, Stalin was given concessions in Asia in the form of territory.

The agreements on the con- cessions to Stalin was kept secret for some time. Eventually the full Yalta agreements were made pub- lie. There is no space here for a dis- cussion of the Asian agreements. But the Russians violated the Yalta agreements on Eastern Europe by imposing Communist dictatorships in the countries which are now Soviet satellites. But even if Congress repudiates | Yalta, at Eisenhower’s suggestion, it’s difficult to see what this action can do besides encouraging non- Communists behind the Iron Cur- Cube » Crushed ICE Thompson Enterprises, Inc.

The Russians, for their part, aren't likely to give up any terri- tory obtained as a result of, or in ause Congress decides now it doesn’t like those agreements.
