Worked on for months by Red pressure in France, public sentiment for a compromise with the Red Vietminh- under Moscow-trained and Chinese-supporteis daily growing stronger. Those mem--hers of the French cabinet who are still favor continued resistance to the Reds in Indochina, but agree that this can only be done, in view of other French troubles, by the increase of American aid far beyond its present scale.

In typical oriental fashion Molotov has hedged on the main reason for the Berlin conferencethe solution of the German and Austrian problems.

It was not until later that the British discovered the tremendous strategic importance of a bastion Commanding the wide strait between the Mediter ranean and the Atlantic. Today, Gibraltar is hcineycombed with tunnels comprising an elaborate defense system. It was heavily bombed, early in World Aar II, but held out as one of the strongholds of freedom. Obviously, Franco can entertain no seri-ous hopes of getting the "Rock" back at this late date. It would seem to be the bet. ter part of diplomacy to tell him so, ly but firmly, rather than wait to see what direction his devious dictatorial purposes 1 ., "...., 4 , . .., and its neighbor states have a solid 'case. Let's not get jittery about It. Whatever Generalissimo Franco has in mind in making loud noises about rec all'. Gibraltar for Spain, one mist admit his - ing cal- timing could hardly be more stirewdly , , ciliated to embarrass America. Britain' is nanco's target, of course Britain's close with the U. S. : in the delicate talks now going on in Berlin , will hardly be improved by the Spanish rumblings -- especially in view of the fact ' - that even now 'Congressional committees are working out details for spending ilmost a hundred million dollars to build Amer- ican military bases in Spain. Coincidentally, it was exactly 250 years ago this year that Britain acquired the "Rock"---almos- t by accident. In 1704, a joint British-Dutc- h expedition sailed into the Mediterranean to prey on the once- great Spanish empire. The original target was Barcelona but this project was given up as too risky. A landing at Lisbon was considered and abandoned for the same reason.

The Bureau of Reciamation has officially approved the project and so has the Secretary of Interior. To claim: that one part of the administration has approved and another disapproved is to say that the right hand doesn't know what the left is dóing and is, in effect, an insult to the administration's intelligence. Moreover, it ought to be understood by everyone dealing with the problem that there is a vast difference between approval of the project- - and voting appropriations for It What. Utah and other western states are seeking earnestly just now is approval by Congress. Appropriations can come. later as they did,- - for eFamplei in the case of the Weber Basin project - It wai back in August, 1949, that the Weber Basin project was approved -- without, by the Way, any approval orthe Bureau of the but no funds were approBudget at all priated for construction until July, 1952.
