WASHINGTON R President
Eisenhower and Premier Stain
may eventually meet at a cold
war peace conference, but all evil
dence here indicates that Soviet
world intentions will first have TO
undergo a clear Change.
That was the plain import of
Eisenhower's news conference
comment recently on a possible
meeting with the Soviet leader. It
is also the word that comes from
U. S. diplomatic authorities who
may not be named.
To hold meeting in the absence
of prior proof of Soviet sincerity.
authorities here feel. would be to
court two grave dangers:
/. II the U. S. and ether West.
ern Powers we're committed to
make the session successful but
Russia was not, then success could
be bought only at the price of new
concessions 10 Russia.
2 II on the other hand the U. S.
and ifs allies as wen as Russia
went into a conference eynically
expecting only to make propagan-
da against the other side, then
the resulting failure TO realize
world hopes for peace would al
most certainly increase the dan
ger OF new world war.
In the latter part Of his admins

ing toward a meeting with Eisen-
hover. The President was asked
for his reaction.
He said he would meet anyone
anywhere provided certain condi-
tons were met: "a he would have
to believe that the meeting would
do some good for the cause Of
peace; ca it would have to be in
keeping with what the American
people thought suitable for their
Chief Executive CD II would have
to be at some reasonable place;
"a il would have to be held with
the full knowledge of America $
allies as to what was 10 be talked
about.
Furthermore, the President said
that any worthwhile program for
peace would have 70 make certain
that the peace was self-enforeing
that 1t was protected By safe
guards against violations.
Shortly after Stains Christmas

Rehearsals are inadequate,

He added that the stage has

He cited his current picture, "The

HAL
BOYLE
SAYS


! like erosion. It changes things, but
slowly.
Thousands of American legisla-
tors every year introduce thou
sands of bills designed to do every
thing from abolishing whooping
cough to encouraging maternal in
stincts in the whooping crane.
This paper blizzard of proposed
changes usually blows its way out
with small results. A legislature is
more inclined by human nature to
pas the buck than to pass con-
troversial bill.
But the legislator who did intro
duce the bill is at least given the
credit of good intention. In this
respect l have already picked my
"Hero Scion of 1853"
He is State Sen. Walter Troxel
of North Dakota, and he wants to
make a simple, but far-reaching
change in an old American social
custom. He seeks to make it il.
legal for a fellow to belly up to a
bar and buy a round for all his
buddies in the joint.
The senator is agin the cherished
cry, "This rounds on me, boys, "
on the grounds it leads to exces-
| sive drinking. He feels it causes
the other gents at the bar to in
dulge in competition and feel
bound to stand a round in turn.
This word picture rather con-
flicts with famous painting that
used to hang in practically every
barroom in the West. The painting
showed bunch of thirsty, busted
cowpokes and prospectors leaning
against bar behind which dozed
a bartender pillowed on cash
register hung with cobwebs.
The title of this famous painting
was waiting for a Live One"
And somehow this still seems a
| more realistic portrait of the situa-
ton at the average bar.
A Manhattan bartender to whom
I mentioned Sen. TroxePs cam
paign said:
1.-THE eager beaver round buyers
are dying out. Today when a fellow
buys round he is disappointed if
you don't take his photograph and
break into applause
perhaps they have a better
class of people in the bars out that
way. Most of my customers buy a
couple of shots and then want to
know when tn ehouse is going to
pop. When / tell them it is now
against the law to serve drinks on
the house, they say okay, they will
wait until the law is changed.
Meanwhile they got both big paws
in the free nut and potato chip
bowls"
Actually, the real argument
against buying a round today isn't
that il leads to excessive drinking.
II leads to excessive poverty, liq-
uor prices being what they are,
The law of self-preseryation is
curling the old saying, ''Now it's
my turn"
Many wives today complain the
real problem has shifted from the
bar to the home.
1.-THE neighbors drop over to
watch a television program" one
wife complained, "and they sit
around all evening wearing holes
in your furniture and liquor sup
ply.
"What every community needs
is a law to take care Of its float
ing free leaders. How about max
ing it illegal to visit anybody un'
less you showed up with a picnic
basket and full bother"
There you are, Senator. Forget
the bar. Save the home.
