Halloween Ghosts
Ghosts on Halloween,
To some people is quite keen;
But on the magic hour of mid
night,
There is far away light;
It's not a lantern, or a candle,
Or a rifle with a cleaning handle;
But it's a witch UP high
Oh, how she can fly;
And a goblin on the warpath,
Oh, but he'll carry out his wrath;
Oh, but isn't Halloween wonder
full,
For us kids, it's just fine.

The Nations desperate
need for leadership colors
the mood of Washington in
the presence of a third crisis
in the health of President
Eisenhower.
The sympathy and kindly
feelings for the President are
not diminished. though the
emotional impact has been
lessened by repetition. 1t is
the times which are different
and so recognized by even the
most shallow thinkers.
In striking contrast with
his earlier illnesses, the pres
ent disability lays the Presi-
dent low in a period marked
by economic uncertainties at
home and a stark realization
that a degree of supremacy
has been achieved by the
Soviet Union in the future
weapons of war.
Where the country was re-
Taxed and confident on pre-
viouS occasions it is today
apprehensive and demanding
action.
How people here feel per-
sonally about possible steps to
meet the demand for deci-
sions depends largely on how
they feel about Vice Presi-
dent Richard M. Nixon. In
this area there is no middle
ground.
But 1t is widely recognized
that present encouraging bull

were to be threshed out in
sessions with the Chief
Executive.
At the time of this writing,
no decision has been taken
whether the meetings will be
held. The Republican Senate
and House leaders are def
initely opposed to getting to-
gether with one or more Of
Mr.. Eisenhower's handy
men" such as Vice Presi-
Dental Assistant Sherman
Adams. So are the Demo-
Gratis.
The international situation
Is even more serious than the
domestic. The Soviet Union
is on a rampage and it seems
plausible that Mr.. Khru-
shchev may want to take ad-.
vantage Of the fluid condi-
tons which may prevail in
the United States while the
President is not well enough
to take quick decisions. The
North Atlantic Alliance is
breaking at the seams: hence
the necessity of holding the
Paris summit meeting in De-
cember. Every head of state
of the NATO looked to Presi-
dent Eisenhower as the only
person who might be able to
prevent its disintegration.
The situation in the Middle
East has reached a boiling
point once more.
Quick decisions of a mill
tary nature - such as oc-
Cured last spring when the
President ordered the 9Th
Fleet to the Eastern Medi-
terranean - may have to
be taken once more. The
Kremlin again has assumed
q political offensive against
Turkey.
All these matters ranging
from the piecing together of
the North Atlantic Alliance
to the Algerian crisis Tin
which the French are spend
