Cover Story
An Ingratiating Duo
BY BRINE HARRISON


nv Critic
Singer Eydie Gorme was musing about the
'breaks" of the business in an interview ar
ranged for TeleVue almost two years ago.
Her brown eyes grew solemn.
"Im giving myself until 80 to make it big"
she said firmly, as her manager, who was
sitting across the table, nodded.
Well, I talked to Eydie, and to Steve
Lawrence again last week-and you'd have to
say that they're way ahead Of schedule
Making it big, mean
Their show in Steve Aliens time spot (Sun-
day, NBC-4) has been hit despite the fact that
they've been working with the usual hot
weather budget
If you agree that it hasn't played that way,
Steve is quick to credit the director and writer's.
"All the people we like to work with, that's this
group" he says. They've taken sizeabe cuts,
even our manager, in order to DO some OF the
things we've DONE"
This is reason enough, incidentally, why
both Steve and Eydie are in no hurry to move
into fall TV berth. 1T would be impossible to
have the same group" he points out, wed have
to reassemble a new one"
They want a show, of course-but it has to
be "right" Having seen too many performers,
especially singers hit coast-to-coast clinker,
they're willing to wait, now that they've proved
their point. There's a possibility, too, that
Stoves next booking win be with Uncle Sam.
They're an ingratiating pair to chat with,
Incidentally The exuberant image they create
on the magic box is pretty close to their on

ate further action to promote
renewed business expansion"
The key words were "eco-
nomic growth" and business
expansion" and this was just
the note that the business
world had hoped would be
expressed by the President.
Mr.. Eisenhower chose in
the main an implicit rather
than an explicit style Of
expression. He said he would
give details in subsequent
messages. But in this address
he gave the spirit Of the
administrations whole APP
proach to the challenges Of
the "Sputnik era"
Controversies there will be
on mutual aid. tariffs, and
the size Of the appropriations
for defense and nondefense
items. But 1t Is significant
that the speech was inter-
rupted with applause at least
IS times. and many Of the
outbursts were prolonged. The
President looked healthy and
spoke with his accustomed
ease. 1t seems incredible that
only q few weeks ago impul-
sive-minded politicians were
calling on him to "ressgn."
Mr.. Eisenhower opened the
door to the making Of peace
in the world. He pleaded for
disarmament and promised
that I'VE. rs q Nation. win

Mr.. Eisenhower reviewed
particularly the past efforts
at disarmament negotiations
and challenged the Soviets TO
resume the parleys which they
have up to now refused TO
reopen. So far as the United
States is concerned. It was
revealed to the world as @

also as q Nation ready to

The idea Is TO eliminate that

Struction on the highways. A
law establishing the index was
passed after statistics showed

drivers cause 40 per cent Of the

President Eisenhower de-
livered yesterday perhaps
the greatest state paper OF
modern times. II was not Just
q "state-of- the Union" mes
sage. II was Q message on
the state Of the world" It
was not addressed Just TO the
American people but to all
the peoples Of the world.
Far beyond its appraisals
Of domestic problems and the
special issues that face
America. Mr.. Eisenhower
made his first dramatic APP
peal to the people Of the So
Wet Union. Just as Presi-
dent Wilson In 1917 appealed
TO the German people above
the autocratic government In
Berlin. so today President
Eisenhower appeals over the
heads OF the Communist
government In Moscow to the
people, themselves. in Soviet
Russia. This passage In his
address win be Of transcend
ent significance in winning
the hearts and minds Of peo-
pie around the globe:
MY call for action 10 not
primarily addressed to the
Congress and people Of the
United States. Rather. II Is
q message from the people Of
the United States to all other
peoples, especially those OF
the Soviet Union. This Is
the spirit Of what We would
like to say:
"'In the last analysis there
Is only one solution to the
grim problems that lie ahead.
The world must stop the
present plunge toward more
and more destructive weap-
ons Of war. and turn the cor
ner that viii start our steps
firmly on the path toward
lasting peace.
"'Our greatest hope for
success lies in q universal
fact: The people Of the world.
as people. have always wanted
peace and want peace now.
1.-The problem. then. Is to
find a way Of translating this
universal desire into action.
This will require more than
words Of peace. It requires
works Of peace"

Secretary of State Dulles
told members OF the Foreign
Affairs and Foreign Relations
Committees that there can
be no advantage in the West
ern heads Of states meeting
their Soviet cpunterparts
unless all outstanding ques-
tons have been settled first
through ordinary diplomatic
channels and then at q for
eign ministers meeting.
Only after all important
subjects have been discussed
and agreed on. with strong
safeguards against q double
cross such as occurred after
the Yalta, Potsdam and
Geneva conferences. might II
be advisable for the heads Of
state TO meet 10 toast the
agreements.
Despite these sound ideas.
the administration Is under
strong pressure from Our
allies in Western Europe TO
give 1t another try. These
pressures are expected to In
crease during the next few
months. not because London.
Paris and Berlin do not APP
preciate the soundness Of our
position, but because Of In
ternal politics.
The legislators who listened
to Mr.. Dulles presentation
were by and large sympa-
thetic to his views. 1t is OBJ
vious that we can reach
agreements with the USSR on
minor matters such as ex-
changes Of athletic teams.
musicians, dancers. etc. But
1t will be a long time before
we can see eye to eye with
Moscow on substantive mat
tiers such as German unity
and genuine limitation Of
arms.
Despite the Soviet propa-
ganda that under certain
circumstances the Kremlin
would agree TO unification Of
the Reich. there are positive
indications that this Is not
the case-even II we are
willing to pay the price By
with drawing our forces
across the Rhine.
The Russians are con-
cerned over the vitality Of
Germany. They saw with
alarm the stupendous prog
reSs OF west Germany in the
economic field. They saw
West Germany become the
greatest power mot yet
militarilyl in Europe in less
than 10 years after its indus
tries had been ravaged. its
peoples crushed and its cities
and towns destroyed. This
was done without the sup
port Of the other l6 million
Germans In East Germany.
