Reinsurance and Action for u. S.

get has already been solved
by the United States.
Mr.. Eisenhower was right
in paying a compliment to
Soviet Russia's scientific
achievements. 1t was the
courteous thing to do. But
he was careful to say that
the military significance Of
the "Sputnik" in itself was
not great. though much
might be learned from the
experiments for future use.

Technology. as special assist
ant to the President on mat
tiers of science will be well
received by the country as he
is an outstanding man in the
scientific world. Co-ordina-
ton of missile research inside
the Department of Defense
is also a step forward. But
the most important thing
about the Presidents address
was its positiveness, its call
for an abandonment of par
tisanship in this matter and
the stirring appeal he made
for peace.
what the world needs to-
day." he said, "even more
than a giant leap into outer
space is a giant step towards
peace"
This is the real challenge.
For the President notes that
Soviet expansionist aims
have not changed" Offset
ting this, the President tells
the world in tones of SUI
preme confidence:
Eternal vigilance and in
creased free world military
power, backed by our COM
bined economic and spiritual
strength, provide the only
answer to this threat until
the Soviet leaders themselves
cease to consume their re-
sources in warlike and ex-
pansionist purposes and turn
them to the well-being Of
their own people"
The American view is that
salvation for the world must
come in the inevitable recog-
milton by the Soviet people
that they are being deprived
of food to pay for weapons
of war and that removal Of
the ruthless rulers in Moscow
Is absolutely essential to the
peace Of all peoples.

the enemy will know now
that the net effect Of its re-
cent exploits is to tighten the
NATO alliance and assure
the permanence Of American
missile bases overseas.
The power Of our strategic
air defense was emphasized
\ by the President when he
said:
"One B-52 can carry as
much destructive capacity as
was delivered by all the
bombers in all the years of
World War II combined"
The Chief Executive spoke
particularly of the atomic
submarines and the huge
naval carriers with the most
powerful nuclear weapons and
bombers of great range to
deliver them"
There was no doubt, when
the President finished his ad-
dress, that he had given the
first authoritative summary
Of the entire military power
of the United States in the
world today. Guided missiles
are in production. Intermedi-
ate-range missiles have been
tested successfully over a
range of $500 miles. While
an intercontinental missile is
required, the President
pointed out, nevertheless.
that because of our bases
overseas. IAN intermediate
range missile is for some
purposes as good as an inter
continental missile"
Mr.. Eisenhower didn't
question VIII Their Russia
could bring back a missile
from outer space but pre-
ferred to say it this way:
"One difficult obstacle on the
way to producing a useful
long-range weapon is that
of bringing a missile back
from outer space without its
burning up like a meteor, be-
cause of friction with the
earth's atmosphere"
There's the real point of
all the talk about the "Sput-
mix" as a military weapon.

these spectacular expert
ments. but the problem Of

and whirring with activity.
Democratic Leader Lyndon
johnson was back, applying
his restless intelligence and
vast political skill to the
problem of meeting the Rus

He had communicated to a
press conference his deter

only the President can act

4. The problem is to Undue

There Is speculation in
quarters which in the past
have been generally accurate
in their forecasts that Sec
rotary Of State John Foster
Dulles may resign if Presi-
dent Eisenhower changes his
mind and decides to attend
q summit meeting with
Nikita Khrushchev next year.
The sources which have
impaired this speculation to
this reporter are friendly to
the Secretary Of State and
believe that although Mr..
Dulles may have committed
a number Of errors. he is by
far the best man in the ad-
ministration and history will
rank him among the ablest
holders of that difficult, COM
pick and thankless office.
According to these sources,
Mr.. Dulles is immutably OPP
posed to another summit
meeting. He regards the re-
cent suggestion of the Krem-
lin boss as a mere propaganda
move which will enhance the
prestige and power of inter-
national communism without
helping in any way the free
worlds efforts for lasting
peace.
Mr.. Eisenhower is said to
concur at present with Mr..
Dulles. But it is considered
possible that he may be in
duced to give the Soviet die
tator another try If our
allies take the stand at the
NATO meeting in Paris next
month that new talks might
be good strategy because Of
Russia's present superiority
In ICBMs and sky weapons.
The launching of two Sput-
niks and the display of some

celebration yesterday have
caused more concern and ex-
element in the countries in

A high sense Of urgency

dent. but he counseled against

to ride off in all directions

The inevitable steps. the
logical steps in the orderly
functioning of a great gov
eminent in meeting an UNI

outlined by the President.
America. he declared, is be-
hind in some things in mill
tary weapons but ahead in
others. America is safe in
that it has a massive power
of resistance to attack, and
this is a deterrent against
the success Of any sudden
action by an enemy. The key

address was this:
