Reports From Iron Curtain i I Os Restiveness Russians May Have Trouble With New Peace Offensive BY RUTH MONTGOMERY (I.N.S. Special Correspondent) WASHINGTON (INS) — As yet unpublicized rumblings behind the iron curtain have tipped off strategic western sources that Russia may have bitten off more than it can chew with its smiling new' "peace offensive.” This is the considered judgment of a top ranking official who told this correspondent today: “There are definite signs that the satellite nations are becoming increasingly restive since Soviet leaders began to relax some of their economic pressures and police controls at home. This is particularly true in East Germany, and the signs point to similar revolt in Poland, Czechoslovakia and elsewhere in Eastern Europe. You can’t keep the shackles on your satellites while loosening them at home.” He said thia is the "one hopeful portent” in the grave situation created for the western world by Russia’s sudden shift to an economic and political offensive in the Middle East and Asia. Comparing the neutral pations of those areas to Little Red Riding Hood, he declared: “After losing the cream of their manhood and enduring the .devastation of turn world wars, they naturally want to believe that the wolf in the bed is actually their kindly grandma.” He said the subtlety of the new Soviet approach poses a greater problem for us than the saberrattling of Stalin, because of its obvious appeal to war-weary nations. But he believes that the current situation is not without hope for Americans. “Russia is now in the promising stage — and has made some few deliveries,” he explained. “But as time goes by. it will not be so easy for her to deliver on these promises without spreading herself mighty tiSta ” -f

' Poll Shows Kefauver And Stevenson Close j Conduct Unique Poll In New Hampshire WASHINGTON (INS) —Results of a unique poll conducted in New Hampshire shpwed today that Adlai Stevenson and Sen. Ke f;uver (D-Tenn.) are neck-and neck in the state's Democratic primary race. The important election, which will take place next week, has been generally considered a possible victory for Kefauver. who received his first 1952 presidential boost in New Hampshire. The poll, however, gave Stevenson a slight lead. Questionnaires were sent to more than 14,000 voters by Rep Perkins Bass (R-N.H.) and over 4,000 replied. Bass noted also as a result of his poll that President Eisenhower received overwhelming en dorsement on the four major issues before the present congress —farm price supports, federal aid to school construction, tax reduc tion vs. debt retirement and foreign aid. ' , The official warned that the chief danger lies with such countries as Afghanistan, on Russia's border, where the awakening to Communist infiltration can come too late. Others like Egypt and Pakistan, he thinks, may have time for a second look before committing themselves too far. Hundreds of Russian technicians and advisers move into each country where the wily Soviets promise a dam or a steel mill. Since FBI director J. Edgar Hoover and central intelligence agency chief Allen Dulles are convinced that every newspaper man and woman employed by Tass, the Russian news agency, is actually a secret agent, it can safely be assumed that any exported technicians fall into the same category. (Russia would not risk sending out of the country any engineer or advisor who was not considered "safe” politically. Dulles, in fact, works on the assumption that the Soviets are attempting to infiltrate counter-es-pionage agents into his own cloak-and-dagger outfit. He knows that the Communists will expend every effort to sabotage all of our most sensitive agencies, but he has no reason to suspect anyone in his present organization. Scarcely a week goes by that ClAj employes are not weeded out of the highly lecret- service — some-times for questionable associations and sometimes for talking too much. Fite months ago. in a Philadelphia address, Dulles predicted that Russia would begin unloading thousands of types of surplus and obsolete war equipment, as she retriaced with newer models. He said this would be an “adjqnct to Russia’s general program of causing trouble throughout the world,” and that the Middle East, Far East and Latin America were the likely targets for such trades.

Gen. John Bagot Glubb from his post as com mander of the Arab Legion. Glubb, who organized the Legion has been the spearhead of Britain'.influence in Jordan, an Arab neigh bor of Israel, for the past 25 years.
