Drive for Eisenhower Resignation
Seen Stalled by Curb on Nixon

The phrasing of the Twen-
ty-second Amendment to the
United States Constitution
has temporarily stalled a
campaign by dissatisfied Re-
publicans to force the resig-
nation of President Ensen-
hover so that he can be
promptly replaced by Vice
President Richard NJ. Nixon.
The first sentence Of the
amendment reads: mo per-
son shall be elected TO the
office Of the President more
than twice, and no person
who has held the ONCE Of the
President. or acted as Presi-
dent. for more than two
years Of a term to which
some other person was elected
President shall be elected to
the office Of the President
more than once"
This sentence was person.

tor Robert A. Taft during the
months when Harry Truman

and-a-half years remaining
from Franklin Roosevelt's
fourth term. In Senator
Taft's mind was the realiza-

wage increases in American
history.
The cost Of articles bought
by the consumer has risen In
turn so that the economy has
become involved In a vicious
circle. The Federal Reserve
Board has tried TO stop the
imitation spiral" by tighten
ing money rates. But this Is
only one factor. Labor costs
have aggravated the imitation.
The net effect has been to
slow down the wheels OF the
economy itself In the face of
an increasing population and
many unsatisfied demands for
goods.
The labor union leaders
who disagree with Mr.. Gray
are saying that what Is
needed is more purchasing
power for the individual.
This is reminiscent Of the
doctrine that held back re-
covery N the ieS0s when
made work" and leaf rak-
ing" projects we're given a
preference over the encour-
agement OF capital goods exc
pansion.
Today there's a retarda-
ton Of the growth Of build
ing and plant. It's due to the
lack Of capital derived from
savings. Many individuals
have been spending too much
for Injuries and for INSTALL
ment purchases and have not
been saving enough. RepoS-
sessions Of automobiles. due
to the buyers inability TO
pay. are running at q high
rate. Many corporations have
been confronted with nigh
costs and have been unable
to save enough out OF the
years profits to finance their
own expansion. Depreciation
reserves are not adequate.
II recovery is to be brought
about as early as 1859. the
Congress will have to do
something soon about re-
Stricting industry-wide price
fixing by labor unions. Smart
labor leaders will see the
handwriting on the wall and
begin 10 curtail the wage-in-
crease routine at least for the
year 1858. It could save the
country from widespread un-
employment-surely a major
concern for labor leaders
and from the financial losses
that q deep depression could
bring.

lne cOflbenbuS OF RESPONSE
BILE congressional leaders Of
both parties is that there is
no chance whatever for tax
cuts in the foreseeable future
so long as the arms race is
on--and that we may even
be faced with new or In
creased taxes.
There is no doubt that the
national defense budget will
have to be raised. Optimistic
and economy minded Sen
ators such as Styles Bridges
and Harry Byrd speak OF a
50 billion increase over the
1868 fiscal year. Others be-
lieve the increase may have
TO be up TO twice that
amount.
The Soviet Union is ahead
Of us. not only In guided mis-
siles but also In conventional
weapons. Testimony heard
90 far by the Senate's Pre-
paredness Subcommittee has
dealt only with the former.
After December IS the group
will listen to technicians of
the three branches Of the
armed forces. They are ex-
pected TO point out that the
threat Of Red aggression may
be immediate. Hence, we
must have at least as many
and as good conventional
weapons as the Communists
in the event they start
brush fires.
Unless we are prepared for
brush fires. we may not be
able TO prevent them from
spreading into World War
III. Hence, the belief OF q
number Of informed legisla-
tors that the new defense
budget must require, in adj
dition to a missile crash pro-
gram. increased appropria-
tons for conventional weap-
ons such as jet bombers and
Jet fighters. improved tanks
and other hardware.

Fate or the desperate need
Of the country for genuine
leadership may upset the
best-laid plans OF mice and
men. Congress may make
such shreds Of the regency's
budget. defense plans and
foreign policy that improvisa-
tions will no longer sufiice to
quiet the public.
The Congress. being Demo-
cratic-led. could even decide
TO try to force Mr.. Nixon.
though Democrats detest
him, to take over promptly as
the lesser political risk for
the long pull.
Even the assumption by
the Vice President Of q role
as acting President Is po-
tentially q peril to his two
full term hopes. The phrase
acted as President" has still
to be construed by the SUI
preme Court and that Ques-
ton Is further complicated
by the use Of the phrase

In the Twenty second
Amendment.

TO get perspective on the
mammoth cooperative de-
tense enterprise that we and
our NATO allies are planning,
we may look upon 1t as a
sort Of cold war" lend-lease
than can be compared to that
other huge lepd-lease oper-
alton approved by Congress
is years ago. in March, l041.
Under 1t we snapped arms
and munitions 70 our allies
In exchange for goods.
That arsenal Of democ-
racy" was created by Con-
gress at the initiative Of
President Roosevelt in the
Lend-Lease Act to help arm
Britain and France nine
months before we. ourselves,
became active belligerents
when the Japanese struck at
Pearl Harbor and engulfed
us In the Second World War.
There are differences In
the two concepts and two
operations.
As to method, which will
be worked out at the forth
coming NATO meeting in
Paris in mid-December, our
present aim is to pool all
types Of information on
weapons, including nuclear
weapons. and TO pool all other
types Of weapons. themselves,
except nuclear weapons. Like
wise projected is a pool Of
manpower and skills in that
vast reservoir Of industry In
free Europe now made pos
sible by the economic recov-
cry achieved by the Marshall
Plan in the Truman admin
istration.

BROWN
Trimming of NonessentioI Outloys
To Be Major Point of Disagreement

believe the essential and in
evitable defense expenditure
can be met without a tax in
crease by a drastic reduction
of nonessentiaIs in the
budget. But difficulties are
said to arise between con-
gressional big-wigs and the
White House as TO the mean
ing Of nonessentials.
A number of educational.
welfare and similar projects
dear TO the administration
are considered by the legis-
lators as "postponable" un-
til the international crisis is
over. President Eisenhower
and his intimate advisers in
the White House seem TO be-
lieve there Is no room for
postponement Of these prof.
ects because 1t would mean
betrayal Of promises made
to the people and Of the ideals
Of Modern Republicanism.
A similar divergence be-
tween the executive and leg
islative branches Of the Gov
eminent is likely TO occur on
the question Of foreign aid.
The opposition which de-
veloped in the last session
OF Congress to that arm Of
American foreign policy was
due not only to the demands
Of the grass roots for econ
omy but also because its
handling was regarded by
most Congress members as
unimaginative and In q rut.
Hundreds Of millions were
being spent in areas which
yielded no results for our
political and military de-
tense.
Congress strongly disap-
proved Of continued aid to
Yugoslavia's Marshal Tito
and cut 1t out. Under direct
pressure from the White
House. it reversed itself and
agreed that II within 30 days

Paying for Defense Expansion

fiscal year the Executive
found that it was in the ma
tional interest TO continue
military and economic aid
TO that Communist dictator
he could do so. On the 89th
day the State Department
announced it's finding: Tito
was to continue TO receive
from US not only economic
but also military aid. From
October ! for the rest Of the
fiscal year he will receive
at least 10 jet planes a month
among other benefits.
Members of the Armed
Services and Appropriations
Committees find it strange
that while assistance is being
given to a member Of the
Kremlin family, the Execu-
tive has still not found suf-
ficient funds to increase the
much needed firepower Of
the ROK army and lament
ably small air force.
1t appears that the norm
followed by the State Depart
ment Is that once American
aid is started it must be con-
tinued, regardless Of inter-
national conditions. Military
and economic aid TO Tito was
not interrupted even after he
went back on his pledges to
us not to recognize the East
German puppet regime.
There are many other ex-
amples Of the administra-
ton giving for giving's sake.
There is no thought in
Congress to curtail drasti-
cally foreign aid which has
been an arm Of the country's
foreign policy for IL years.
But there is a determination
to spend the taxpayers
money to the best advantage
mot necessarily as the ad-
ministration but as the men
In Congress see 1t. And this
will be another contentious
matter after January Z when
Congress reconvenes. There
undoubtedly will be a re-
newed demand that foreign
aid be extended selectively
and not indiscriminately.

Expected Increase by Spring Blamed
PortIy on Lobor's WAGE Demands
DAVID LAWRENCE

The handwriting on the
wall--the prospect that next
year may see more unem-
ployed than In any year since
the l9S0s--is being realis-
tically faced by Richard J.
Gray. head of the building
and construction trades de-
partment Of the AFL-CIO. as
he recommends a suspension
OF wage increases for 1858.
It is true that the other
labor leaders at the Atlantic
City convention have coldly
rejected any such suggestion.
They never made a bigger
mistake. Unemployment. 1t

mists. viii run between s
million and 6 million by next

peSsimism to optimism.

that Of Russia. We were

to them by President Eisen-

Commission, that this is a far

magnitude than has perhaps
as yet been grasped. Congress
will tackle the Job when II

trated the natural growth

The signs point to a diff
ferent kind Of political re-
action next time II "reces-
sion" deepens into "depres-
sion." The Democratic
Party. one Of whose potential
candidates - Senator Ken

not hesitated in recent
months to help expose la
bor-union rackets, may find
itself compelled TO dig deep
er into the misuse Of eco
nomic power by national la
Dor unions.
For the present recession"
is directly due to lack Of
capital formation. Other
setbacks have been caused
In the past either by excess
sive speculation or by inven-
tory accumulation beyond
demand. but today's recession
Is largely due to the inability
Of people and corporations
to save enough due to high
prices.
The cry from the COM
panies Is that profit margins
have been squeezed by high
labor costs. Yet taxes Of all
kinds remain high. Any econ
Omy IN winch the Federal
Government takes every year
50 per cent Of the earnings
Of corporations. apart from
State and local taxes, isn't
healthy.
The cry from the individual
citizen is that the cost Of liv-
ing is too high. Prices OF all
kinds are rising and ''infia-
ton" Is blamed. But the prin-
cipal cause Of the continued
imitation is the unrelenting
pressure for wage increases
every year. irrespective Of
whether they are deserved. In
the year 1887. for instance. the
built-in "escalator" clauses in
union contracts and the size
Of the regular demands an
