Mr. Menzies' Advice As honest and iorthrignt I state- mcnl. as any that has been made by a government leader respecting the Suez Canal crisis was made by Prime Minister Menzies to tile Aux.- irnlian Parliament. After stating ih,-.1 imi-c sl-iniild not and will not be 1...-ii sir long as there is the slightest hop? of finding I peaceful solution. hp rlwl:-I-ed "the right to employ f,....- be completely aban- rlonnrl oi made subject to impossible condiuons." He then cautioned canal users against adopting "I timid state of mind in nlin-ii the word tforcc' is absolutely lol"viddcn." Mr. Menzies probably know: as much about the real situation as anyone. As head of the mission which 4-oiiveycd the internationaliza- tion plan to Egypt. he had an ex- cellent opportunity not only to ap- praise the Egyptian Government's reartion but to size up Nasser's per- sonal attitude touards international law and his ambitions in the direc- tion of Arab leadership. And he is too much of a realist to believe that in the present state. of affairs peace can be guaranteed by giving one ooncession aftnr mother to I man of Nassor's temperament. He is just as anviniis. to have the crisis resolved by negotiation as anyone else-,Sec- rotary of Stats Dulles for example e-but he knows that ii "I world not based on academic principles," as be put it. it would be foolish and dang- erous for the (anal Usors' Associa- tion or the United Nations to tell President Nasser or his Soviet back- ors that in no conceivable circum- stance will force be employed. That would, indeed, show I "timid state of mind" which to any dictator is In open invitatioirto further acts of lzililcssncss anti aggression. Evidently, Mr. Dulles is coming around to the same view. In I recent press conference he said: "if I settle- lvwtil in -'4t'4'nl'rlam-c with interna- tir-nal low proves to be I vain hope, then I am hound to say the danger of war would recur." Perhaps if he had told Nasser that at the begin- run: I iwm-cfiil and satisfactory solution In the problem would have been worked out by now.

"The big thermonuclear umpom already in this country's Itomir arseiinl," he said. "are big enough for any conceivable pur- pnw." lic added that to continue the tr-"ts. each one bigger than the pre- f't'IIlll;: one. would ”raise both medi- cal and moral problems by reason of the rnszullant world-wide contam- ination by radioactive substances." (tn this question of contamination the experts hold conflicting views. Some of them argue that while there is a tlicorciical danger in radioactiv- ity there, is no evidence that so for any great harm has been done. Others maintain that lack of direct evidellm does not necessarily mean that contamination of animal and plant lifspls non-existent. . Now comes I report frail West is-130'!

There is no question about the market; as for transportatioii, that ought to present no great difficulties these days.
