DAYS Meditation: In this so-called
modern world there is an attitude
of people who want to show an
immediate cash profit on all that
they do. Whatever does not show
a profit, they regard as failure.
We all need to watch and pray
that such a commercial measure
ment of life does not become the
measure we adopt. The Devotion
al Reading for Today: And he
called to him the multitude with
his disciples, and said to them,
IF any man would come after
me, let him deny himself and take
up his cross and follow me. For
whoever would save his life will
lose it; and whoever loses his life
for my sake and the gospels will
save it. For what does it profit
a man, to gain the whole world
and forfeit his life ?"-Mark g.
34-37.

comes available against the
background Of stepped-up at
tacks by the Kremlin and Red
China on the Titolst brand Of
independent Communism In
Yugoslavia. Some Of this crit
icism approximates the bitter
charges Of stalinist times
against Marshal Tito and in
dicate TO authorities here that
Mr.. Khrushchev has aban-
doned his efforts TO allow the
European satellite countries q
permanently freer rein. This
behavior. apparently forced on
Mr.. khrushchev by the fall
ure Of his so-called liberal
ization" policies Of three years
ago. tends to recreate the
image of a tough. dictatoI1al
Russia kicking smaller nations
around.
At the same time Mr.. Khru-
shchev has been putting less
emphasis on maneuvers to force
a summit conference and has
been talking more about Rus
sia's ability to get along with
out a conference if-as he puts
lit-the Western powers will not
agree TO his terms. This shift
of emphasis detracts from the
impression Mr.. Khrushchev
previously has sought to create
of a benevolent Soviet Union
devoted to peaceful works.
More on Defensive
In essence. the Kremlin now
seems to United States officials
to be more on the defensive
than it has been for many
months.
One reason for this undoubt-
edly is a change in Western
tactics. Secretary Of State
Dulles and other Western lead
ers have been emphasizing
their readiness to hold a sum-
NIT meeting if only it can be
shown beforehand to promise
some East-West settlement. But
there are probably other rea-
sons for RusSia's apparent and
perhaps momentary disadvan-
tage in this propaganda con-
flict with the West.
One speculation here is that
Mr.. KhruShchev was much
more interested in a summit
conference last year when So
Wet prestige was high because
of the launchings of the first
earth satellite, Mr.. Khrushchev
may have figured that by trad
ing on his new-found prestige
