The Communist drive came from the,
northeast, the Viet Minh stronghold, where
main arteries’ link the Reds with Red
China, source of materials and * site of
training bases. In early stages the offen-
sive had marked ^success. ,
Then'suddenly the tide turned. In the
biggest airborne operation of the war, the
French dropped 2,500 purachutists in the
enemy’s rear. They cut the Reds’ major
supply line and only escape route back to
their northeastern centers. Road blocks
were established. antT' raiding French
tanks fanned out to produce havoc in Red
territory.' ^
The advancing wave of Red armies
slowed to a halt. ThW- initiative is gone.
They find themselves holding fndo-Chi—#*.
nese soil which, by itself, has no particu-
lar strategic or military value. And they
find their way home cut off. Instead of
pushing on. they now must figure how to
get back, at the least cost to their top-
grade forces.
They are not yet defeated, but only em-
barrassed. The French maneuver, aided
mightily by enlarged military supplies
from America, was a brilliant stroke. But
it will not be marked down as a victory
until- the , French have imposed a heavy
cost in men and-materials on the bele#
guered Viet Minh rebels. * t,

Washington.—Nobody’s been frightened half
to death on Capitol Hill since Rosie the Cow left
Rosie was a hefty black and white Holstein—life-
site papier niache. She stood jn the office of the
late Rep. Reid Murray of Wisconsin, the big dairy
state- ^
Early one morning a charwoman backed into
the office, on her knees, scrubbing the floor. When
she turned around and saw the cow, she Jet out a
whoop and went su earning down tha corridor.
Then there was the Florida alligator. Former
Rep. Hat din Peterson (D.-Fla.) had the ’gator on
a green park bench. It put the fear in some of
his visitors who didn’t obeserve at first glance it
was stuffed.
A quick survey indicates there are no more
animals, real or imitation, in the offices of sena-
tors or congressmen. But you can bump into
some strange objects.
There are stern, war-like looking Indians star-
ing down at you. They are busts owned by West-
ern legislators. Famous warriors of every tribe
—Sioux, Navajo, Hopi—are represented In por-
trait or bust. Rep. Burdick (lt.-N.D.) has prob-
ably the largest library on Indian history and
lore. ■ i,:H
*You can hardly squeeze into the quarters of
Rep. Frank Boykin (D.-Ala.) for all the bt1c£-
brac and curioa. His favorite saying, “Every-
thing’s Made for Love,” b framed on the wall.
The real difference between the average city
but! and a rardine can is that you can’t get anoth-
er sardine in the can. »

weapons scheme and long-range strategic plannins;.1;
How do you deliver a hydrogen bomb? What target, hi) corth'
of it" !r. there any tactical use for it? Can the Navy use It?
Answering those questions as soon as possible Is absqliftely necessarj
if the fantastic cost of the development of the H-bomb is going to buy
a better deterrent to Communist aggression, or give p significant jump
in the American arms race with Russia. At least some of these ques-
tions have to be answered alnjbM immediately if the bomb is to mean
anything. I - ,; .. qjT
Before the H-bomb is worth a military dime, even as a threat, the
first task is to find some way to deliver it to the enemy.
TT if known that the heart of the bomb, tritium, has to.be kept at
x an extremely low temperature up until the instant that-lt ii deto-
nated by the explosion of an A-bomb—which’ is somehow wrapped
around the tritium; This obviously involves elaborate refrigerating
equipment. -
Thus, getting this bulky, frozen-hearted package down to a small"
enough size to fit into an airplane Is obviously problem No. 1 right now.
The best information from AEC sources Is Thai it Is not licked, but
that It is not considered insurmountable.
After the complex packaging problem is solved the Air Force has
to figure out a bombing technique; Conservative estimates say that
the effective damage range of the H-bomb will be more than 20 miles.
No bomber known today can fly above that altitude or anywhere
near it.'
The best device the Air Force has revealed it has to fit this bill is
a sort of glide bomb Which was first used by the Germans in World
Wqr II. This bombing technique has been highly developed, but
there is doubt as to whether even it would give the bomber enough
time to get away from the blast
Qf course the one obvious method for doing the job is a suicide
mission. But the Air Force isn’t particularly interested in It.
Actually, according to the Pentagon weapon experts, the Navy today
has the best means of delivering an H-bomb. It would involve the
use of the guided drone with a television eye which was recently
revealed to be in use in Korea,
The electronics equipment could easily be installed in a big bomber.
The “mother'' plane would be far eifough away from the drone-missile
to be out of range of the bomb when it goes off. •
However, evon.Ui.is method of delivery, it is admitted, would take
a painfully long time TO perfect enough to trust an H-bomb in the
'device. ■' : ,, . \,7-MT
Thus, even the most optimistic look at the H-bo.nb picture by the
big Pentagon brass doesn’t show it as a usable weapon for a year or
more And even if they do come up with some crude way of getting
it to its target, that is only one phase of its use, The whole busines>
of when to use it and on what targets calls for extremely complex
studies and planning.
What worries the brass most is whether there will ever be enough
time to integrate the H-bomb into their plans.
