There is little disposition
in America to face up to
dangerous facts. Our society
does not encourage or reward
calamity howlers. Nearly
everybody is better of ma.
terially than he has ever been
"a little more last year, a
little less this-but nothing to
get worked up about. and
few of us get worked up"
until a personal nerve is
touched. Or. If we get worked
up, it is into a temporary
hysteria which yields to
soothing syrups that are i'm
mediately produced by the
various powers that be.
The President, we are as
Sured, has had a mild little
stroke. from which the
chances of complete recovery
are excellent. God grant it.
But nevertheless, this illness,
at this time, is calamitous.
It comes at a moment when
the free world is appallingly
adrift, when the NATO ALI
ances are opening at the
seams, when the Soviets have
scored in the political and
military arena the greatest
victory since Stalingrad, and
when there is only one man
in the world who possesses
the power and authority and
can still evoke the confidence
that might, conceivably, re-
cement the bonds with f1rmer,
more positive material.
Without the President, the
outlook for the forthcoming
conference of the NATO
powers in Paris is bleak, in
deed. 1t will be a SUNNI"
conference without the sum-
nit.

that of any other republic.

Policy on Egypt
Held UnaItered
BY the Associated Press

=
A State Department spokes-
man says there has been no
change in United States policy
toward Egypt.
Department Press Officer
Lincoln White made his CON-
ment yesterday when newsmen
raised the questions about re-
marks in Cairo by Egyptian
Finance Minister Abdel Moneim
Kaissouny.
The Egyptian official said the
United States had resumed ex-
ports of lubricants to Egypt
that United States economic
aid to Egypt had been resumed
on the same basis as before the
Suez Canal dispute, and that
America had granted an Egyp-
tan request to buy polio vac
cine.
Mr.. White took issue with
each Of the three points.
Commodities such as lubri-
cants and medicines have beer
and continue to be available for
export to Egypt on a CONNER
cial basis" he said.
I'm regard to aid, the United
States has, as announced last
week, contributed 100000 to
the Egyptian-American Rural
Improvement Service on a par
ticipating basis in fulflllment
of its obligations under an
agreement of March 1883"
AS to the possible Egyptian
purchase of Salk vaccine, Mr.
White said:
I'VE have no record Of any
request by Egypt for the pur-
chase Of Salk vaccine, and we
most certainly have imposed no
restrictions on such a purchase
through the use Of the free
funds Egypt possesses in this
country"

the United States and the
Soviet Union-do the same as
part of a world disarmament

Positions Described
Sources described the posi-
tions Of the three Western
powers this way:
France wants to deevlop nu-
clear bombs partly for prestige
This resolve apparently was
strengthened by the recent
United States-British decision
to send arms to Tunisia over
strong French objections.
The United States and Brit
ain, worried about the strained
French economy and the costs
Of French efforts to quell the
Algerian rebellion, believe Paris
should avoid the heavy costs OF
nuclear development. Washing
ton and London also behave
that an international disarma-
ment agreement Will becoRae
more difficult as more powers
begin to make nuclear weapons,
United States and British
leaders have not expressed these
views publicly.
French officials repeatedly
have been dropping broad hints
that France may be ready to
test an atomic bomb by the emo
of 1858. probably in the Sahara
Desert.
The French magazine Enter
prise reported yesterday that
work on an A-bomb began In
1856 and said there will be q
test drop next sprirg. The
magazine said the rapid French
development Of the bomb has
surprised the United States and
Britain.
MOch Voices Stand
Jules Moch, French dis.
armament expert and former
Defense Minister, said last
October that France would
continue preparing fashionable
materials for military use
pending a disarmament agree
ment.
The United States has sold
France $500 pounds Of uranium
235, the raw material for A.
bombs. But the sales, for g
small fraction Of the amount
1t would cost France to pro-
duce the material. entailed an
agreement that it would be
used only for peaceful pur-
poses.
Despite the United States
deliveries. Frances Atomic
Energy Commission has said
without elaboration that the
French would continue to pro-
duee their own U-235. The
French also are building an
atomic power station at Mar
coule, near Avignon, which will
produce plutonium.

Moscow in connection with the
Bolshevik revolution celebra-
ton.
The report said Mr.. Mao con-
ceded that the world Commu-
mist camp required leader and
that his country was not worthy
of the position.
Mr.. Mao, who at times has
shown independence of the
Moscow line, was quoted as say
ing:
"China has had great expert
ence in revolution but only lit
tie experience in socialist re-
construction. China is a large
land. but has only little in
dustry.
Has No Sputnik
China does not even have
quarter of Sputnik while the
Soviet Union has two.
Above all. the Soviet Union
possesses a 40-year experience.
Without the Soviet Union we
would have been conquered by
other countries. Whether they
would have digested us is an
other question. CThe Commu-
nists seized power in China
eight years ago.
THE preparation of this
meeting shows also that the
Communist Party of the Soviet
Union out of its experience,
which also stems from its mis-
takes, has drawn necessary
conclusions and improved its
work methods significantly
since the death of Stain.
Out of all this arises the
leading role of the Communist
Party of the Soviet Union
among the Communist and
worker parties, and the leading
role of the Soviet Union at the
head of the states of the So
cialist camp"
Polite Humility
The humble terms used by
IT. Mao in bowling to Russian
leadership was regarded here
as stemming in part from the
traditional Chinese manner of
expressing polite humility be-
fore friends.
At the same time, the Mao
speech appeared to be a more
complete acceptance of Mos
cows overlordship than has
come out of Peiping previously.
