A good index of the impossibility
of getting any such sum from private

L
prize winner and top Washington
man for the New York Times has
noted the trouble honorable men run
into when seeking confirmation from
the Senate for any kind of an APP
pointment. Reston wryly sets up a
series of rules. which he recommends
anyone to follow, if ever he wants
to get Senate support:
1. Be sure you are for the things
that are going to be popular six
or seven years from now.
2. Don't join anything ever.
3. Don't let your wife join any
thing either.
A. Don't get involved in foreign
affairs questions if you can help
it. If you can't help it, back the Mon
roe doctrine and the open door policy
and be against communism.
5. If you must have political con-
victions about foreign policy ques-
tons (Which is not recommended)
make sure the President sends your
nomination to Capitol Hill while your
CONVICTIONS are popular.
6. Be suspicious of the British. |
And if you know what they're up

he better.
7. Don't write books.
8. Master various cliches popular
IN Capitol Hill, including the fol-
owing:
am for adequate defense, but
we must not spend ourselves into
bankruptcy.
/ am for helping other countries,
but they must first prove that
they are helping themselves.
America cannot defend the whole
world.
Communism is merely socialism

a Communist or member of any
