DAVID LAWRENCE

The Nation might Is well
prepare for the news that
President Eisenhower viii say
he doesn't feel equal to run
ming again. It has been ex-
pected that such news would
prove Q "shock" to business,
to the stock market and to
the politicians In the Repub-
lican Party who have been
hopeful that he would run
again. But It's the kind Of
'shock" that may prove ephe-
neral and in o few days might
readily be taken In stride by
all concerned.
The President has plainly
been trying to soften the i'm
pact Of q declination to run.
Here are his own words ON
that subject % given to his
latest press conference:
"Well, Of course, I don't
know why the stock market
fell when I got sick. A. q
matter Of fact, ! don't know
I think I brought it up Cat
d press conference because
Of the fact I didn't know It
until several weeks later.

occurrence, tried TO say that
! have honestly got to be con-
vinced that I think I can carry
this job efficiently.
Nov, I have never said
anything that was more hope
full than any doctor said. /
have, on the contrary. tried
TO be . little bit on the, let's
say, cautionary side rather
than on the optimistic. In the
hope that II the time came
when ! had to say, IN all Jus
tice, that I don't believe I
should Try to do this. there
would not be the kind of
siloek--as I say, I don't know
why, but there would not be
that kind OF q shock--if 1t
were possible to avoid It."
This sounds naive to most
newspapefnen. They imagine
q President Of the United
States is familiar with the
cross currents Of American
politics and that 1t is wen
known that any change In the
presidency causes business to
hesitate till 1t finds out who

and what his policies toward

er is usually the one to offer
concessions, where q situation
is stalemated. Otherwise there
is no reason for the approach.
Neither Soviet note offers any
concessions on the main ques-
lions at issue. They simply
reiterate the former Soviet
position, as the answer reiter-
ates the Western position. 50
the record stands right where
1t was.
In the various places where
I have been on q short lecture
trip the consensus Of editorial
opinion Is that the Russian
notes were timed to offset
whatever might emerge from
the Anglo-American confer
ence in Washington-capture
the headlines. That seems
reasonable. The second note
the fact that It was Issued
seems to indicate that the So
VETS anticipated something
more sensational from the
Eisenhower-Ed conference
than actually emerged.
Sir Anthony Eden put his
finger on q sore spot as far as
the Soviets are concerned by
remarking that both Britain
and France had had Just such
a treaty as the Soviets pro.
posed to Washington and that
the Soviets had unilateraliy
cancelled 1t last spring, on the
ground that the existence Of
NATO was incompatible with
the treaty's intent. That being
so, O treaty Of the same sort
With Washington would also
be incompatible with NATO.
Soviet moves, as I see 1t, are
all aimed against NATO,
SEATO, etc.
But one may question, any
how, what good treaties are
when they are made with mem
bers Of the Communist bloc

Russians curiously call IT.

President Eisenhower and
Prime Minister Sit Anthony
Eden have been Of one mind
about the two Russian notes
to the President suggesting 0
Soviet American nonaggres-
sion and friendship treaty. It's
o propaganda move. The RUS
