The general tone and atti-

influential Democrats much
more than its actual pro-

With rare unanimity. they

Such legislative veterans
as Speaker Rayburn and
Senator Russell Of Georgia

clear as to make responsible
cooperation impossible.
These old hands can play the

Why shouldn't the NATo

This question Is raised now.
not because President Eisen-
hover may not be able to go
abroad at this time. but pri-
marily because there Is need
for bipartisan unity In the
United States. It viii not be
attained Just by adding q
prominent Democrat TO the
American delegation. II could
be achieved by holding the
meeting in Washington. where
Speaker Sam Rayburn and
Senator Lyndon Johnson
the two Democratic leaders
in Congress - together with
the chairmen and ranking
members OF the two Foreign
Affairs Committees could sit
in on important conferences
with representatives Of the
other NATO governments.
President Eisenhower could
then give more time to the
business Of NATO. whereas
in Paris his time would be
limited.
If arrangements for the
Paris meeting have gone so
far that they cannot be al
tered in time for a December
session. then the meeting
could be postponed till jan
uary. It is far more important
for the cause Of NATO to get
congressional cooperation in
the United States than to
hold a meeting now abroad
that can be barren Of results.

must be ratified or modified
or rejected so far as Ameri-
can participation Is COM
cerned?
The NATO meeting is Of
transcendent Importance. For
the last two years II has
been apparent that some.
thing must be done TO bolster
the NATO alliance. It needs
military unity, and II needs
economic and political unity.
There Is at the moment an
erroneous impression IN this
country and abroad that. II
President Eisenhower goes
to Paris. he can accomplish
something Of q miracle In
strengthening NATO. He
could do no more at Paris
than he could do In WASH
ington, and perhaps less.
That's because the fostering
sore In Americas world posi-
ton Is the divided govern-
ment here at home.
The simplest way 10
achieve American unity is to
hold the NATO conference
in washington. where the
leaders OF both parties in
Congress can sit In and learn
firsthand what must be done
to produce a solid front
against the Soviets. The
after-effects on the "neu-
tralist" and "uncommitted"
countries would be such as
70 strengthen the whole cause
Of the free world against the
Communists.
With Americas far-reach-
ing facilities for television
and radio broadcasts and
with the publicity that would
be given In the American
newspapers and magazines, a
meeting of NATO in WASH
ington would be q ten-strike
for the Europeans. They
would be able to talk directly
TO the American people and
insure a united public opin-
ion. This. indeed. can in

Of the legislature branch.
This is perplexing to q Eu-
ropean. who Is accustomed 10
single control Of both legis-
lative and executive func-
tons by the party with q

This same question banned
the Europeans In 1918. when
President Wilson went TO
Paris. leaving behind a Re-
publican Congress whose
leaders were miffed because
he took some inactive Repub-

with him on the delegation.
The failure Of the Repub-
licans in 1919 to support
American entry into the
League Of Nations "a blunder
that changed the course Of
history and helped TO bring

attributed to the friction
then between the Republicans
In Congress and the Demo-
cratic Executive.

country has witnessed the

to 90 along on the American

The newspapers have fully
reported that many Demo-
Gratis did not want their titu-
lar leader to give even limited
cooperation to the White
House at this point. Mr.. Ste
venson got no impression at
all that the President was
aware Of this fact or that the
situation posed any dificul-
ties for Mr.. Stevenson.
What the President said
with rather vague politeness
was that he hoped Mr.. Ste
venson would be able 10 80

II obviously didn't seem
quite enough for the former
Governor. who countered
somewhat obliquely with his
comment to reporters that he
wasn't sure he had been in

ubiquitous Jim Hagerty went

CONSTANTINE BROWN
Congressional Leaders See Too Much
Reliance on Effects of NATO Talks

A majority Of congression-
al leaders who attended the
Monday parley at the White
House expressed the view
privately that the presenta-
ton on the part OF members
Of the Executive was mot
particularly effective or en-
couraging." The sense Of
urgency which gripped the
country after the revelation
that the Soviets have gotten
an important jump on US in
outer space was barely per-
ceptible, according TO all
Democrats and some Repub-
licans. There were. OF course.
some constructive ideas set
forth. But by and large.
there seems TO be no desire on
the part Of the Governments
spokesman TO go into q gen.
uine crash program which
alone would restore our mill
tary position and what Is
equally important, our much
damaged prestige among the
allies and "uncommitted" ma
tons across both oceans.
1t appeared 10 those who
attended the White House
parley that the Chief Execu-
tive and his advisers rely
with undue optimism--on the
results Of the forthcoming
Paris meeting to undo the
damage the Sputniks have
done 10 the fabric Of free
world unity. A number of
Democrats and Republicans
do not share this view. 4 few
expressed the belief that
under existing world con-
ditions IL might be wiser to
postpone the heads-of-sta
parley. which they have con-
sidered. ever since 1t was an

mick"

II would be unwise for Presi-
dent Eisenhower to attend

his physicians can be induced
TO approve the trip.
Despite the remarkable
progress made by the Presi-
dent since he suffered with
a slight cerebral occlusion.
there is no doubt in the
minds Of smany observers
that he cannot possess the
necessary energy and alert
ness TO cope with the COM
piex and difiicult problems
which will develop at the
mid-December parley. Mr..
Eisenhower has suffered
within two years with three
major ailments which would
have forced any business
executive or public servant
into semiretirement. The job
Of President Of the United
States under existing domes-
tic and world conditions
does not permit such part
time activities. He has proved
this himself when within q
week after his last attack
he felt duty-bound to return
to his ONCE and preside over
the meeting with the con-
gressional leaders. And this
was easy compared with
what he will have to do in
