The Invitation to Khrushchev

senhower is betting on the
inevitable restraints that
peoples themselves can ex-
ercise when their leaders 90
too far. He is hoping his own
visit to the Soviet Union will
furnish another opportunity,
like that accorded Vice Pres
ident Nixon, to convey certain
truths to the Soviet citizens.
It's a gamble, and here
abouts the comment is often
heard that the advantages OF
q visit by Khrushchev out
weigh the disadvantages. and
that no harm can be done by
trying to educate" him.
This, however, ignores the
effect on the peoples OF the
captive nations" of Eastern
Europe who yearn for free
dom and who have hoped in
vain that the leadership Of
the West will do nothing to
enhance the prestige of their
oppresSors. 1t is not a happy
augury for the peoples inside
East Germany and Hungary
and Poland. where the Tight
ers for freedom took a chance
just a few years ago and
made a heroic effort to secure
their liberty.
But within a few months
the Soviet game will have
been exposed. The Soviet
Premier will have been to
America and will have dis
covered that Americans are
not afraid to make sacrifices
when challenged on a basic
principle of human liberty.

world peace-but his decision
TO invite Soviet Premier
Khrushchev to visit the
United States probably will
prove, through no fault Of
the President. as futile a ges-
ture as was the summit con-
ference OF 1855 at Geneva.
Memories are short, but
only four years have passed
since Mr.. Eisenhower frater-
nized with the top leaders OF
the Kremlin, including Nikita
Khrushchev. amid world
wide acclaim and enthusiast

that this was the way to
bring about an leasing Of
tensions and a solution OF
the current controversies Of
the cold war"
But every pledge made at
Geneva has since been bro
ken by the Soviet govern
ment. 1t became necessary
afterwards for the United
States actually to take a mil
itary posture in the Far East
to prevent a Soviet-inspired
invasion of FormoSa by Red
China's forces. Also, the
United States had to land
Marines in Lebanon and take
other measures to forestall a
Soviet conquest of the Mid
die East.
Not only has the solemn
promise, made at the 1855
summit meeting at Geneva,
to assure the reuniflcation OF
Germany. been broken. but
within the last few months
the Moscow government has
issued an ultimatum to the
Western powers to withdraw
their forces from West Berlin
or face the threat of war.
For several weeks now it
has been the American posi-
ton that there must be some

SovietS before there could be
a summit conference. The
Moscow government has re-
fused to give an inch. Con-
seQuently, the conference Of
the four foreign ministers has
been deadlocked and is end

Foster Dulles would have had
difficulty in adjusting to the
present pace of East-West
relations.
The Republican right wing
is already showing some SEN
sitivity to cloakroom jokes
about Vice President Nixon's
"courtship OF the Russians"
This is the spot where the
Presidents moves may be
sourly regarded, but 1t is out
Of power in Congress and
generally throughout the
country.
Entirely apart from politi-
cal considerations, there will
also be Americans who find
the change of direction emo
tionally difficult. Yet it
seems clear that another
watershed of history is here
and demanding exactly the
kind of direction the Presi-
dent proposes to give it.
The President emphasized
that the Khrushchev ex-
change was for a personal
visit" and had no connection
with a later summit meet
ing. He specifically dis
avowed negotiation and en-
phasized he could not speak
for the Western powers, only
for the United States.
Yet in the light Of the
Presidents powers over for
eign policy-the powers of
which every President is
most jealous - the Nixon
journey is touriSm and the
Congress can do very little.
And for his part, Khru-
shchev has repeatedly indi-
Gated that he would like to

Khrushchev's campaign
against public drinking is
having an effect. Indeed, for
a nation which is all but
goddess, there is an almost
puritan strain Of morality
in evidence. There is con-
slant propaganda against
drunkenness and adultery,
and there is likely less pros
titution in Moscow than in
any other city OF its size.
Shopping is an adventure
unless one takes along an
Intourist guide. But one can

This sometimes can go to
extremes like, for example,

who is the attendant came

All peoples love children,
and Russians are excessively
fond of theirs. They reveal
it in many ways. One Of the

those of children with their

In Sverdlovsk there is a
children's park and regular
programs of story reading

every city has children's

How high is up? Or when
is a summit conference not a
summit conference?
No matter what they're
called--and they are not be-
ing called summit conferences
the coming meetings between
President Eisenhower and Pre-
mier Khrushchev get both men
off a hook. for a while. anyway
Yet, as of now, Mr.. Khru-
shchev is away ahead on points
in his duel with Mr.. EiSen-
hover over Berlin where he
precipitated a crisis which he
has never let subside. He
knows, and Mr.. Eisenhower
knows, he has the United
States on a tough spot.
And, as a result of all he
has done, he is getting exactly
what he wanted: a personal
meeting with Mr.. Eisenhower.
1t seems safe to say that if
Premier Khrushchev hadn't
caused the Berlin crisis, and
refused to bulge an inch, Mr..
Eisenhower wouldn't be asking
him to Washington in Septem-
Der.
Plan Informal Talks
The dictionary describes a
summit as the highest point,
Since Mr.. Eisenhower and MI
Khrushchev are the top men
in their Governments, no meet
ing between Americans and
Russians could be any more OF
a summit than this one.
Still, Mr.. Eisenhower doesn't
call Mr.. Khrushchev's visit here

to run a blockade, the shooting
might start.
For both men this ugly d.
lemma may be solved in their
talks. If not. at least the talks
will have postponed the show
down for some months.
Summit Dilemma
Mr.. Eisenhower is saved from
embarrassment in another way,
since the meetings with Mr..
Khrushchev will not bear the
title of summit:
He had repeatedly refused to
meet the Russian at the sum-
nit unless the foreign ministers
at Geneva made some progress.
Since they haven't, he couldn't
very we'll agree to a summit"
meeting with Mr.. Khrushchev
without appearing to cave in.
This way, since the talks will
be informal" that dilemma is
removed.
If the West didn't get its
troops out Of Berlin, Mr.. Khru-
Shchev threatened to let the
East German Communists con-
troll the road and routes through
which the West sends supplies
to West Berlin.
Airlift Difficult
II they shut of the routes
and the West tried to force its
way through, Russia promised
to go to the help of the East
Germans. But couldn't the
allies send in supplies with an
airlift, as President Truman
did in smashing Stains Ber-
lin blockade in 1913?
Mr.. Eisenhower at a White
House dinner and in news
conferences has made it plain
the Vests position is poten-
TALLY far worse than what de-
veloped in 1913. Red jamming

a mass airlift very difIicult. The
Reds didn't interfere with the
air transport in 1913.

II was difficult to tell at
his hastily summoned press
conference whether Presi-
dent Eisenhower was relaxed
and happy over his decision
ito melt a little bit Of the
Ice that seems to freeze our
relations with the Soviets."
He spoke pleasantly
enough, though showing a
slight trace of irritation over
the fact that so important a
command decision should
have been lone Of the worst
kept secrets Of our time"
This may have been only a
reversion to his military days
when such abundant leakage
about so delicate a subject
would have been unthink-
able.
Certainly the President has
had the green light from
most political intersections
for his exchange of visits
with Soviet Premier Khru-
shchev. There can be little
question that the people, not
only of the United States but
of the world, will go a long
way in the name of peace.
The new generations feel in
their blood stream the nu-
clear threat as older men
and women cannot.
With the diplomatic in
stinct which served him so
we'll during the war and can
almost be said to have made
him President, Mr.. Essen
hover will see the major
Western allies before the So
Wet exchange. 1t was a COM

sisted that the foreign min
listers couldn't settle any
thing. and that the summit
was the place to do 1t. He
hasn't yet had his way en-
tirely on that point, but he
will have a chance in a two
man summit meeting to in
dictate whether the Soviets
mean to withdraw their ulti-
matum on West Berlin.
Meanwhile, the President
will go to London and Paris
later this month to canvass
the views Of Prime Minister
Macmillan OF Britain and
President De Gaulle Of
France. Presumably, Mr.. Eli
senhower will reflect the views
of the Western allies when
he meets Khrushchev, though
the President will, as he says.
not be their authorized
spokesman in a formal sense.
Then, after Premier Khru-
shchev has visited America,
Mr.. Eisenhower will pay a
return visit to the Soviet
Union.
Two points of view prevail
today about the exchange Of
visits between the Soviet
dictator and the American
President. One is that tension
will be eased and the cold
war" will thaw out a bit.
The other view is that Khru-
shchev will tighten his hold
on the Soviet people and
will tell them that America
now accepts the leaders Of
communism as equals. With
a controlled press, this would
mean misleading propaganda
inside the Soviet Union and
within the countries occupied
by Soviet troops. The i'm
preston will be cultivated
that the United States no
longer is hostile to commu-
nism and that all dissenters
in Eastern Europe had better
give up their battle.
Time alone will tell which
view OF the KhruShchev trip
will turn out to be the correct
appraisal. But the Soviets
thus far have given not the
slightest indication of any
concessions or changes, nor
have they exhibited any
evidence that they will not
break agreements again.
The President. himself. is
under no illusions. He knows
that Khrushchev is bent on
world conquest. But Mr.. Eli
