What Effect, Khrushchev's Visit?

the American point Of view
toward the "cold war" which
was started by the Moscow
government.
Many members Of Congress
would like the opportunity
to tell what has happened
to the captive nations" and
also to describe the many in
stances of subversion and
infiltration which have been
financed by the Moscow
regime, not only inside Eu-
rope. Africa and Asia, but
also In the many countries
of North and South America.
Countering this form Of ag-
gression has cost the free
world billions Of dollars.
apart from defense expenses.
Indeed, no democracy in the
world will be safe as long as
the autocratic government in
Moscow continues its world
wide tactics Of attempted
conquest.
If the reception accorded
the Soviet Premier by the
American people - granted
that 1t must be courteous and
polite-is construed as a SEEM
ing acceptance of the Moscow
dictator himself in disre-
gard of his crimes and the
wrongs inflicted by his gov
eminent. then it may be that
KhruShchev on his return to
Moscow will say to his COL
leagues in the Kremlin some
thing like this:
Those Americans won't
f1ght-they don't want to
lose their comforts. can
force them to give concession
after concession. Since they
are already frightened Of our
missiles and nuclear bombs. I
can threaten them some more
and still get my way without
a war. That's how commu-
nism can win its biggest VIC
tories in the world"
But if the Kremlin leader
learns. on the other hand,
that the rights and liberties
of human beings mean more
to the American people than
their own material possessions
he will begin to understand
what the all-inclusive words
of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence have meant to the
cause of freedom. For to sup
port that cause our fore
fathers said: I'VE mutually
pledge to each other our
lives, our fortunes, and our
sacred honor"

Possibility Seen That Soviet Dictator

sponsible in its handed
rule over hundreds of mil
lions OF people.
Should the American peo-
pie remain silent, or should
they become articulate? The
question is being debated
quietly in the corridors OF
Congress. This is a Nation
where free speech is enjoyed
on international as well as
national questions. Members
of Congress are asking each
other frankly what ought to
be done by the national leg
islature itself. Some have
thought it would be best to
adjourn. so as to avoid the
necessity of welcoming Khru-
shchev at any session OF
Congress. But. upon refiec-
ton, others think this would
be failing TO take advantage
of a big opportunity to de-
bate before the world the
very issues that Khrushchev,
himself, has again and again
discussed in public.
If a Khrushchev speech to
a joint session of both houses
of Congress were arranged
for, it could mean that Pres
ident Eisenhower would be
given an opportunity to adj
dress the Soviet parliament
when he goes to Moscow later
this autumn. This would help
to get the American point Of
view across to the Soviets as
never before.

world that there has been no
backing away by the United
States from the positions

recent years by Communist
imperialism.
The whole story of what
the Soviet Union has done to
upset world peace since l945

Liberals Viewed as Having Asked for It
In Failure of Effort on Housing Veto

President Eisenhower won
a decisive victory when the
Senate voted 55-40 to suS-
tain his veto of the housing
bill. but it proved nothing
that is new. When Congress
months ago sustained his
veto of a mild rural electrifi-
cation bill, it was clear that
this year it would not over
ride the President except I'M
der extraordinary circum-
stances.
What is new and heavily
weighted with consequences
which cannot be foreseen
is that Democratic Leader
johnson deliberately gave his
liberal faction enough rope
to hang themselves, knowing
that the hanging was inevi-
table.
This is a tried and true
method of dealing with po-
litical opponents and one
particularly favored by pro-
fessionalS coping with those
they consider to be amateurs.
That Senator johnson puts
the housing fiasco in precisely
this frame of reference is
undeniable; minutes after
the vote his aides were say
ing that this should teach
the Johnson critics a lesson.
AS a maneuver, the attempt
to override on housing was
impulsively conceived and
clumSily executed. The Bank

held from his allies. And ours.
But he will seek to be the
mediator, and If the roly-poly
extrovert from the vast ma
ton called Russia wants
to crack open the door of
peace ever so slightly, then
the Eisenhower foot will go
in the crack along with
Khrushchev's.
The President will be at
some disadvantage. He is, as
his critics have said, a some
what naive man as one is apt
to be whose boyhood was
spent in a strictly religious
home. He believes in the
dignity of man and in the
fact that spiritual quality
gives fullness to life.
Khrushchev believes in no
such concept of man. He car
ries aloft the Leo Durocher
banner with the hooking
slogan that nice guys finish
last. But the Dutch can
rise in Eisenhower, and his
voice can grow cold and the
smile be no deeper than his
teeth.

President Wants to Show Red Premier
Prairie Farm of His Humble Boyhood
RALPH McGILL

Washington Notes: At a
time when every publicity
alert chamber of commerce
is dreaming up something for
Nikita Khrushchev to put
eyes upon, it might be Of
interest to know what the
President Of the United States
will hope to show Mr.. K.
when he visits America.
Number one on his list is
the little frame house in
Abilene, Kans., where the
Eisenhower clan got its start.
Six boys grew up in the house,
and all of them managed to
attain some prominence in
life. Each one did hard,
hand labor. Each knew what
it was to rise before dawn
and do chores and TO con-
tinue through the day, COM
pleting the final ones after
dark.
The President began to
think about this when he
read Of the Khrushchev pride
in his own humble begin
nings. He was the more
struck with the idea when he
noted how the grand exalted
wizard of the Kremlin had
suggested to Vice President
Nixon that he. representa-
tive Of a capitalist nation,
had never really done any
work. The Vice President
had replied tartly, informing
Khrushchev of how Father
Nixon had worked arduously
and with small financial re-
ward and of how he. Richard,
second highest official in the
United States. had held down
jobs and worked his way
through school.
Khrushchev had accepted
it, with his doubts plainly
showing. So it is that the
President bankers to escort
the Premier to Abilene, to
take him into the little house,
now a museum, and to tell
him stories of the early days
of the Eisenhower boys when
life was hard and bleak on
the Kansas prairies in the
semifrontier years.
1t is not a bad idea. 1t may
not impress the son of a
Ukrainian sheepherder and
peasant, but he will hardly
escape the fact that within
our own semantics the
Nixons and the Eisenhowers
were peasant people and used
to working with their hands.
The President has let it be
known that in his last year
in Office he would like to play
the role of mediator. the per-
son who might help the world
to find its way to the paths of
Cancellation and peace.
He cannot have failed to
note that even the Russians
have spoken well of him as a
ood-intentioned man. They
have not suggested that he,
himself, has an evil heart.

Nixon Believed
Strong, but

NEW YORK, Aug. 10 (AP).
L. Judson Morhouse, Repub-
lican State chairman, says he
believes Vice President Nixon
would make a strong G. o. P.
presidential candidate but that
Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller
would have a better chance of
being elected.
Mr.. MorhouSe commented
yesterday following a protest
from California against build
ing up Gov. Rockefeller as the
only Republican with a chance
to win the presidency next
year.
The protest came from AL
phonzo Bell, chairman of the
Los Angeles County Republic
can Central Committee. The

lily favors Mr.. Nixon. who
comes from suburban Whittier
Mr.. Bell, while approving
competition for the nomina-
ton, said "the technique of ad-
vancing the presidential candi-
dacy of Nelson Rockefeller on
the basis that he alone can
win for the G. o. P. next year"
was both unfair to the Cover
nor and contrary to party in
terests.
Said Mr.. Morhouse: II have
never said and I do not say now
that an outstanding Republican
leader like Vice President Nixon
could not win in 1860"
But since Mr.. Bell has raised
the subject publicly" Mr.. Nor
house said, II do believe that
Gov. Rockefeller, if he should
become a candidate, would have
a better chance to be elected

What Nikita Khrushchev
sees and learns on his forth
coming visit TO the United
States could have dangerous
consequences. 1t could con-
ceivably be the forerunner
of war, just as the summit
meeting between Chamber
lain and Hitler at Munich in
September, 1893, was fol-
lowed a year later by the out
break Of World War II.
Everything depends now,
as it did then, on the reac-
ton Of the peoples of the
democracies. The question
really has passed. for the
moment, out of the hands of
the Government at Washing
ton.
II Khrushchev comes to
the conclusion after his visit
that the American people are
so stepped in Injuries and
comforts and so engrosSed in
material pursuits that they
will be ready to make peace
at any price, the temptation
for the Moscow dictator will
be to take chances just as
Hitler did. and war-at first
limited and then general
becomes a serious possibility.
Conversely. if the Ameri-
can people show that they
have courage and are willing
to make sacrifices for ideals.
even to the point of losing
some day many Of their COM
forts and their luXuries-aS
they have done three times
in the wars of the last half
century - then maybe the
Moscow dictator will not mis-
calculate or take chances,
and a world war will be
avoided.

announced, has been on the

even tried to keep this secret
so the cry of This or MOTH
ing" so effective with wa
verers-could not be used.
Nor was any real time al
lowed for a serious attempt
to line up votes to defeat the
President. The sequence OF
events was as follows:
After the Senate voted
56-31 to accept the confer
ence report on housing 1t
was clearly seen that the
two-thirds to override a veto
was not in the cards. The
expected veto arrived and the
committee went to work on
a substitute.
But Senate liberals we're
angry. They foreSaw that
they would get nothing for
slum clearance. urban re-
newal, housing for the aged
and similar projects close to
their hearts and their con-
stituents. The Presidents
program seemed to them to
do little besides give some

ers of upper and high income
housing. They complained
about him and they included
Leader johnson in their
criticism.

johnson Critics Learn a Lesson

Now that he is more or less
openly in the presidential
sweepstakes, he is even more
sensitive to charges that he
is only a technician or gadg-
eteer and not welded to con-
viction. Apparently he caught
fire.
Suddenly this week the
Banking and Currency Com
mittee reversed its own de-
cision not to try to override
the Presidents veto. Two
Senators switched from aye
to no to make this possible,
both Southerners and both
responsive to the leadership
- Senators Fulbright and
Sparkman.
There were rumors the
President was threatening to
veto the compromise being
framed and it has been sug-
gested that this accounted
for the switch. Yet it is
thought improbable that
Senators Fulbright and
Sparkman would of their own
motion put the Johnson
leadership and the party ma
jority on the spot.
Senator JohnSon's aides put
it that the liberals had to
be shown, they asked for it
and now they have it. The
implication is plain that the
liberals should from now on
accept the johnson middle
way and be satisfied. The
observer is free to choose
whether Senator Johnson
only wants legislative results
or whether he is not becom-
ing obsesSed with power. Per-
hapS it is some of both.
