In Cairo last week some 400
delegates from 80 nations and
colonial dependencies concluded a
Peoples Solidarity Conference.
The conference, unofficial but
sponsored by Egyptian President
Canal Abdel NaSSer. adopted q
heavily pro-Communist line, all

condemn the United States for
alleged atrocities in Korea was
rejected by the delegates.
When the conference adjourned
Wednesday, it had adopted reso-

also condemned British "atroci-

Midwest newspapers quoted
anonymous MURA scientists to
the effect that the machine was

I'D Amendment Faces President
With Grave Leadership Problem

This view Is not shared by most
Republicans. who obviously favor
retaining the amendment. One Of
the foremost Of its proponents Is
Senator John Bricker Of Ohio. The
amendment. he says. is "all right
as 1t is"
I'm Congress. Senator Bricker
observes. Il have seen no sign that
the Presidents leadership is Inn
paired. What makes q Presidents
leadership effective or not is
whether he has principles and q

York. a Republican who voted for

II doubt IT," he says. ITS un-
fortunate to have q lame-duck
President, but 1t would be more
unfortunate TO have q four-term

The Consensus
Slicing through the maze Of
controversy. the middle OF the
road consensus in Washington is
this:

diminish the powers OF the
presidency in an era when America

4 The fact that the amendment
Os might one day save the
United States from an unscrupu-
lous power grab Is point in its
favor.
Tucked away in the folds Of this
controversy and unrealized by
most people is the fact that the
amendment could place an un-
necessarily severe limitation on
the tenure in the White House Of
a Vice President who had sue
ceeded to the Office upon the death
Of q President.
The amendment provides that
a man who thus had served more
than two years Of an unexpired
term could be elected 70 only one
more term. Take Richard Nixon.
II he should succeed to the
presidency one minute before noon
on January 20. 1859. he could be
elected only once thereafter. But
II he should become president one
minute after noon on January 20.
1853. he would be eligible for two
full terms after serving out the two
unexpired years.
But. at the moment Washington
observers are not so much con-
cerned with hypothetical problems
as with the fate Of the Presidents
program In Congress.

They believed that the extension

Sometimes that feeling of the
