Soviets Are Quiet

The Soviet Union has been re-
markably quiet while the Western
leaders worked out their accom-
modations with Gen. de Gaulle.
But last week Mr.. Khrushchev re-
portedly told Salah Salem, editor
OF the semi-off1cial Cairo newspa-
per AL Ghomurriya and a close
aide to the United Arab Republics S
President Canal Abdel Nasser.
that the departure of former Sec
retary Of State Dulles had brought
"a marked amelioration" in Soviet
American relations. when Dulles
died, the policy of strength and
brink-of-war died with him." Mr..
Khrushchev was quoted by the
Egyptian editor.
The Kremlin also made a new
move on the Berlin front last week.
In nearly identical notes to Lon
don. Paris and Washington, the
Soviet Foreign Office protested
West German plans to erect a new
radio transmitter in West Berlin.
Such a transmitter, the Soviet
notes said, would be "a new provo
cation calculated to make the at
moSphere in Berlin and in all
Germany more tense, and to fan
the flames Of the cold war;"

West German Choroe

In Bonn, the West German cap
ital. officials charged that the So
Wet objection constituted another
step in splitting West Germany
from isolated West Berlin. En-
abling legislation for construction
of the radio station, it was pointed
out, had not yet been approved
by the Bonn Parliament and sup
posedly stood little chance of pas
sage.
Moscow's policy in the past has
been to stress the separate reasons
for the existence of West Germany
and Allied-occupied West Berlin.
The Berlin situation, the Kremlin
insists, is the result Of a four
power agreement and is a four
power responsibility, not the re-
sponsibility Of the German Fed
eral Republic. Bonn, for its part,
includes West Berlin as one of
the nations IL states and an in
tegral part Of West Germany.

Only a Wish

The General Assembly of the
United Nations can pass resolu-
tions on important subjects. But
international politics have not yet
developed to the point where the
resolutions can be enforced.
On Thursday the Political Com
mittee recommended, by vote of
46 to 26 with 10 abstentions, that
the General Assembly request
France to cancel her impending
test of a nuclear weapon in the
Sahara desert. Jules. Moch, chief
French delegate, promptly de-
clared that the resolution would
be ignored if approved by the As
Sembly as expected.
The resolution, submitted by
Morocco and backed by the power
full Afro-Asian bloc, was the sub
ject Of extended debate. Voting in
favor were the Afro-Asians and
the Communist bloc, aided by
many nations usually found in
support of Western policy. The
United States, with Britain, sup
ported the French position.

Tunisian President Bourguiba
again last week openly urged his
guests and allies, the Algerian
Provisional Government leaders,
to accept President de Gaulle's
invitation to come to Paris, under
safe-conduct guarantees, for peace
talks.
Gen. de Gaulle reissued the in
vitation Tuesday. Mr.. Bourguiba
observed that French intentions
could be put to the test If the
Algerian leaders accepted the bid
to Paris. There is a real desire
for peace" he said, "it is now
only a question of dissipating dis
trust"
The French president has Of

Indio's Border:
No Stand?

Prime Minister Nehru of India,
in a special communication to In
dian ENJOYS abroad, made it clear
last week that he views the border
dispute with Communist China
very seriously indeed. Peiping, Mr..
Nehru's note repeatedly said, was
not prepared to negotiate the bor-
der problem except on its own
terms. Outright Indian conces-
sions, not mutual agreement, was
the Chinese policy, the Prime Min
lister observed.
Reports from New Delhi told of
the governments hopes that Presi-
dent Eisenhower's visit next month
would bolster the Indian position.
Mr.. Nehru has several times indi-
Gated his desire that the border
question be resolved at the nego-
tiating table, but he has insisted
that no bargaining can begin as
long as Chinese troops occupy ter
ritory claimed by India.
But on Thursday, even while
New Delhi was planning its pres
entation of the border case to
Mr.. Eisenhower, Secretary of
State Herter inadvertently created
confusion. At his press conference
Wednesday, he answered a ques-
ton on the border crisis by OBJ
serving that the United States
had not taken "any sides at all"
on the dispute and had mo first
hand knowledge" of who was right
as to the location of the border.
The Secretary quickly issued
an explanatory statement when
the significance of his remarks
was made apparent to him. He
had meant only that the United
States did not know for a Ger
tainty just where the border was
drawn. But he wanted to clear
up "any possible misconceptions"
on the question of Chinese ag-
gression. His press conference
words, he told India's Charge
d'Affaires, "were not meant to
imply any condonement by the
United States Government of the
use of force by the Chinese Com
munistS."

NATIONAL SCENE

House conference of labor and

ways of preventing or settling
Gripping strikes in any industry.
Not only is renewed steel walk
out a possibility, but the East
Coast dockers, now on the job
under an Injunction, and the rail-
road workers may strike within
the next few months.
No steel negotiation sessions
have been held since the Supreme
Court ruling. But Federal medi-
ators said they planned to call
representatives Of the IL big steel
companies and the union together
within the next week or so.
At the same time, Mr.. Eisen-
hover formally called his special
three-man fact-finding board
back to the job. Technically, their
task is merely to report to the
President, after so days of the
life of the injunction, the en-
pfoyers' final offer" to the union.

ports, there remained an agoniz-
ing uncertainty: Will labor and
management be able to reach an
agreement before the injunction
expires on January 26?
David j. Mcdonald, president of
the Steelworkers, last week de-
clared that his men would "arise
in mighty and righteous wrath
and close down the industry and
keep it closed" if their just de-
mandS were not met.
Secretary of Labor Mitchell,
however, expressed a hope for a
new contract during the life of
the Injunction. Both parties
seem to be close enough now that
if both sides will compromise, a
settlement is possible" he told a
television audience.
Mr.. Mitchell made it clear, how
ever, that if there is a new strike
President Eisenhower will submit
to Congress remedial legislation
to protect the public.

plete, have taken on increased sig
nificance recently. Important
American air bases and a naval
base in now-independent Morocco
are to be evacuated in the near
future. With United States missile
launching sites in Europe still in
the construction or planning stage,
bases for intermediate range
bombers remain very important
for the defense of Western Europe.
Whatever the advantage to the
West in the Presidents visit to
Madrid, it was freely observed last
week that the Franco regime had
won a major victory in a long
effort to achieve greater accept
ance in Western capitals. In any
case, the Spanish government
stood to gain substantially in its
domestic preStige,' which has been
repeatedly growing increasingly
shaky in the last two years. Eco
nomic problems, widespread unem-
ployment, and a lowered standard
of living have contributed to the
strength of an opposition as yet
unorganized.
The President will welcome Mr..
Bourguiba aboard the Des Moines
on December II, when the cruiser
anchors of Tunis en- route from
Athens, Greece, to Toulon, French
Mediterranean naval base. Pro-
ceeding from TuniS to Toulon, the
President will go to Paris for the
December 10 "pre-summit" meet
ing of Western leaders. After that,
he will fly to the Spanish capital

BY CHARLES BARTLETT
Contributing Writer

CONCORD, N. H. - Richard
Nixon's supporters in New Hamp-
shire are claiming that he is Presi-
dent Eisenhower's real choice for
the Republican presidential nomi-
nation.
The word is being passed by for
mer national committeeman Frank
j. Sulloway Of Concord, a close
friend Of Clifford Roberts, New
York flnancier who is in turn a
personal advisor and golfing COM
panion Of Mr.. Eisenhower's.
Mr.. Sulloway is a respected fig-
ure in Republican politics in the
State. AS a national committee
man and money-raiser, he has
tended toward the liberal element
of the g. o. p. and has been an
Eisenhower man from the start.
Some Of his earlier associates are
in the Rockefeller camp but he
is strong in his endorsement Of
Mr.. Nixon and in his belief that
Mr. Eisenhower wants him nomi-
mated.
He points out that the Presi-
dents closest friends with an in
terest in Republican politics, Sid
ney Weinberg, William Robinson,
and Mr.. Roberts, are all working
for Mr.. Nixon and maintains that
the President wants him because
he believes he is highly qualified
for the Office and because he has
been dogged and loyal in support
of the policies of the Eisenhower
Administration.
But with or without Eisenhower,
the heavy balance Of Republican
politicians in the State is plainly
moving toward Mr.. Nixon as the
preparations mount for a primary
struggle on Next March 8. After
five weeks Of organization effort,
the Rockefeller forces can claim
support from one of the States
two Congressman, Chester Morrow,
and possibly from the second, Per-
kins Bass, who is now abroad;
from one Of four Republicans on
the governors council, Thomas
keenan,; from two Of the 18 Re-
publicans in the State Senate,
Robert English and Edward Ben
nett; and from only scattered
few of the 243 Republican assem-
blymen.
The bulk of the Rockefeller sup
