The Assembly's New Head

The United Nations General Assem-
bly, has elected It's new president with one
Of its rare unanimous votes, and 1t has
done SO with good reason. For DR.. Jose
Maza Of Chile, wholly apart from his am
bassadorial and executive experience, is
a parliamentarian of the first order. A
vigorous and scholarly man at 66, he is
particularly noted in his own country as
constitutional lawyer and legislator
whose long political career has included
% consecutive years of distinguished serv-
ice as Senator.
In the course Of this career, more
over, Dr.. Maza has made international
affairs his major specially, and he is
exceptionally well acquainted with all the
ms and outs-and the ups and downs
of the U. N, where he has headed the
Chilean delegation at four of the Assem-
bly's regular sessions. With his experience
in parliamentary procedures, and his rec
ord as gifted mediator and conciliator,
few men could be as well qualified for the
high post he now holds. The Assembly
has chosen well In electing him.

Public and President

We commend the Presidents advis-
ers-particularly his press secretary, Mr..
Hagerty-for what seems to be policy
of complete candor in keeping the public
informed Of the Presidents condition.
An illustration of this policy lies in
the press conference yesterday afternoon,
with DR.. Paul Dudley White freely an
swering the reporters questions, not only
about the Presidents condition but about
the nature of his illness. Dr. Whites
down to-earth frankness will tend to al
lay the spread of gossip and rumors
which In such cases often rush in to
I'LL a vacuum caused by secrecy.
It is not only the President Of the
United States who IS Ill, but man who
commands in extraordinary degree the
deep affection and confidence of the peo-
pie. Their real anxiety has nothing in
common with the sort of public curiosity
from which physicians often seek to pro-
tect prominent patient fact which
has been wisely recognized in Denver.

We hope the pending negotiations for
use of part of the Janney School grounds
as site for new branch library in the
Tenley-Friendship area will be successful.
The location not only is good one for
community public library, but the choice
of District-owned tract would save the
taxpayers money.
The Board of Education approved the
release Of small section Of the Janney
property for library purposes as long ago
as 1885, but the project never material
lied. Several months ago the plan was
revived in a letter from Albert w. Atwood,
president of the board of library trustees,
to Chairman Sharpe Of the Board of Edu-
cation. Since then school officials have
reStudied the plan and indicated they
would approve 1t. The school land Is not
being used at present. If 1t were turned
over to the library, an appropriation Of
$4,000 for purchase of site could be
returned to the District. The proposal Is
attractive from every aspect.

There has been good reason to accept
Republican claims that much of the cur
rent prosperity has stemmed from q
feeling Of confidence which the Eisen-
hover administration has given to the
business community. Capital investment,
q strong force In the economic boom, has
been encouraged by administration poll
cies, and the hope that those policies
would continue in effect not only through
another year but through another presi-
Dental term. Capital investment requires
more than shert-term planning and its
impact is spread over more than short
term period. It will be understandable
now If plans In this area are held in
allegiance, at least temporarily, until the
Presidents condition and the political
modus yivendi can be determined.

But what has happened in the
matter Of the $1.5o haircut?
Instead OF declaring for q

II that is the way 1t is. the

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES (. TRACEWELL

Actually. as we keep on tell
ing him, there is no need to
worry about 1t.
People are people, and there
are so many of them that it is
impossible for them all to like
each other.
Utopias have a way Of SEEM
ing rather silly. after all.
Who would want to live In
any Utopia where there were
no differences of opinion?
Far more such differences
are based On complete funda-
mental divergences OF person.
atty. we believe. than is COM
monty thought.
So much stress has been put
on education in our beloved
country, that we all have come
to regard argument as the best
way of settling all differences.
Maybe it is. especially when
everybody is tired and hot and
wants to get the thing over
with.
But there is another opinion,
that emotions have their
place in life. and that all
matters cannot be settled by
argument. That Is where the
fightin' comes in. The emo
tons are strictly animal, and
we shouldn't be ashamed Of
them, in reason. If we are
good animals.
All of us--and this includes
Templeton Jones-must real
lie that education is only one
phase of life. and that arguing
a thing through" as we say.
is only mixing it UP, some
times.
So there Is room for every
body, and every sort of greet
ing.
Sometimes q careless wave
Of the hand, accompanied by
the right sort of smile, is bet
ter than all the words ever
uttered.
Education is a pretty poor
sort of thing, at times, as
everyone knows who has ever
experienced pain. sorrow and
the futility of argument.
Let those say iii" who want
to. and others say GOOD
morning." If they feel slightly
a bit more stuffy, as one is in
clined to do in the afternoon.
1t is a big world, and there
is plenty Of room in it for all
kinds Of greetings. just so
they are well intended. The
intention is everything.

Crime Perspective

Any increase In the crime rate here
should be matter of general concern.
In fairness to the police, however, the
Ia per cent crime increase noted here for
the flrst half of this year should be
placed in proper perspective That rise
occurred In relation to the record low
level recorded during the first six months
Of last year. Washington, it will be re-
called, led all cities Of the country in
crime reduction during 1854.
So, even with the slight upward trend
evident during the f1rst six months Of
1855 Washington still is well out in front
in effective local law enforcement. This
holds true not only with respect to crime
suppression generally but to success in
clearing up cases. For example, the FBIs
semiannual crime summary shows that
Chief Murrays men cleared Gil per cent
of the cases during the six months,
whereas the national average Of clear
ance was only 27.6 per cent.
That there would be leveling-of

decline registered last year was foreseen
by Chief Murray some months ago. 1t

the crime rate to descend to zero in any
big city. The rate Is certain to vary as
police strength and ef1iciency vary. The
Police Chief believes that he has the sit
uation as well under control as he can
hope for with present resources Of men
and equipment. He has asked the Conn
missioners to recommend enlargement OF
the force by 222 men. With such an
increment he could reduce the amount
Of overtime spent in providing extra
vigilance in some of the city's trouble
spots. This extra-duty program has pro-
duced excellent results, as the statistics
prove. It would be risky to relax vigi-
lance now-but permanent program
should be based notion temporary over
time assignments but on a larger
manpower pool in the department.

The Economic implications

The impact of President EisenhoWer's
illness upon the national economy will
not be measured precisely for some
months to come. But that his leader
ship in the White House has had great
bearing on the confident mood Of the
business community is unquestioned. The.
possible removal Of that leadership
quite UNDERSTANDABLE has shaken the
business world.
A reflection of this uncertainty was
provided by the reaction Of the stock
markets. sharp sell-off in the first
trading day after the President was
stricken. To a considerable degree the
markets serve as barometer for measure
ing the economic weather ahead. Secur-
ity prices usually start going up before
prosperity becomes fully evident; they
usually start going down before other
induces reflect recession. To accept the
market as barometer, however, requires
more than a one-day reading perhaps
as much as several weeks.
Business and individual earnings
have been at record high levels In the
first three quarters Of this year. An
abrupt reversal of this trend Is highly
unlikely II not virtually impossible. An
unprecedented flood Of year-end extra
dividends has been predicted and, while
company decisions on such payments
may be modified in the light of what has
happened, the volume should remain
high. Consumer spending, additionally
high In the fourth quarter, likewise
should come close to expectations.
tits, then, next years prospects that
may be most affected by the political
implications of the Presidents illness.

Nj. Nixon's Role

It Is good thing that President
Eisenhower, from the very beginning Of
his administration, has moved to bring
the Vice President into his official house,
hold as working lieutenant. For a
heavy responsibility seems about to
devolye upon Richard M. Nixon.
The Constitution says this: "In case
of the removal of the President from
Office, or of his death, resignation, or
inability to discharge the powers and
duties Of the said office, the same shall
devolve on the Vice President !. :" The
meaning OF this language has never been
tested. But 1t is hard to see how 1t can
mean anything except that the Vice
President shall discharge the powers and
duties Of the presidency If the President
becomes incapacitated. Presumably this
could take place without any formalities
accompanying transfer OF duties and
powers, or any action denoting perma-
nence of the transfer beyond the period
of the Presidents incapacity.
Mr.. Eisenhower, from all indications,
is going to be incapacitated for consid-
cradle period of time perhaps for several
months. Meanwhile, the business of the
United States must go on And the AZ
year-old Vice President should and prob
ably will be called upon to function as
acting President whenever 1t is necessary
that he do so.
It is hardly secret that Mr.. Eisen-
hover has planned for just such con-
tingency. Unlike Mr.. Truman, who sue
ceeded to the presidency in almost total
ignorance Of the inner workings of the
White House, Mr.. Nixon has been kept
very fully informed More than this, he
has sat. so to speak, at the Presidents
right hand because the President wanted
1t that way. In the Presidents absence,
Mr.. Nixon presides at cabinet meetings.
He also presides, In Mr.. Eisenhower's
absence, at meetings of the National
Security Council. which In some respects
is our most important policy-making
body. Furthermore, Mr.. Nixon has served
as the Presidents representative on
global tours, and he probably has been
taken into the Presidents confidence on
most If not all policy matters pertaining
to the office.
ground, Mr.. Nixon is incomparably better
equipped than any other Vice President
TO take oyer temporarily the essential
duties Of the presidency And this is
good thing for the country in this emer-
gency. Whether it win be good thing
for Mr.. Nixon remains to be seen. In
the discharge OF whatever duties may be
delegated to him, he will be like man
walking tightrope. His political oppon-
ents viii be watching closely for any
indication that he Is promoting his own
political fortunes. And yet, at the same
time. Mr.. Nixon will be expected to do
his Job well--which often is the best kind
OF politics. 1t is hardly an exaggeration
to say that he will have need of all the
wisdom he can muster and all the support
he can get.

II President Eisenhower de-
cides not to run for q second
term-because Of his own
present illness-Vice President
Richard M. Nixon seems TO be
his heir presumptive for the
1856 Republican presidential
nomination. The President
has made no such public COM
mitment. Indeed, the Presi-
dent has not yet said himself
whether he viii run. But in
view Of the heart attack he
has sustained, 1t is o foregone
conclusion he will not seek
or permit his own renomina-
tion--unless he completely
RECEIVERS his health and feels
he can carry on the heavy
duties Of the presidency. I'M
der this last condition, Presi-
dent Eisenhower might feel it
Is his duty to continue with
his drive for a peaceful world
and for his domestic program.
The odds appear to be. how
ever, that the President will
not run next year.
In the event the President
takes himself out Of the pic
ture--as he may at any time
viii he be able to name the
Republican candidate for
President? One other great
Republican President accom-
plished that Theodore
Roosevelt, who picked his
Secretary Of War. William
Howard Taft. for the job. Also.
q great Democratic President.
Andrew jackson, saw to it
that his Vice President. Mar
tin Van Buren,, was nominated
for President. And Van Btu
rem was elected. Theodore
Roosevelt was stepping volun-
tarily out of Office. He had
served nearly all Of the term
for which his predecessor.
william Mckinley, had been
elected latter Mckinley was
assassinated), and q four-year
term to which Roosevelt had
been elected in his own right.
His influence throughout the
country was so great, he was
able to obtain the nomination
for Taft. Taft himself was a
popular figure, had been q
Judge In Ohio. Governor Cen
eral OF the Philippines and
Secretary Of War.
Experienced in Politics
Vice President Nixon's ex-
perience in politics, although
he is O young man, has been
more extensive than that Of
Mr.. Taft when the latter was
nominated for President. He
has been q member of the
House Of Representatives, q
Senator and Vice President. all
elective offices. President Eli
senhower has given him great
prominence by calling upon
him to perform . whole series
Of important jobs - ranging
from that OF ambassador of
good win in many foreign
countries to campaigning for
Republican candidates for
Governor, Senator and Repre-
sentative. Mr.. Nixon was born
