Jackson Sees
Soviet Threat
BY the Associated Press


Russia's leaders are gambling,
Senator Jackson, Democrat Of
Washington, said last night,
that the people Of the United
States do not have the staying
power to win the long, drawn
out competition Of the cold
war.
Senator Jackson, a member
of. the Senate Armed Services
and Joint Atomic Committees.
said many Americans do not
realize that "the Soviet objec-
tive is the same as In a hot war
Ito defeat us"
LAS events have been NOV
ing, we are losing the contest"
he said in a speech prepared for
the 18th annual conference Of
the Military Government Asso-
citation.
I'VE are on the defensive
I'm ost everywhere. Senator
jackson said. adding that this
is because I'VE lack a coherent
and purpoSeful national STRAIT
egy to win the cold war"
No Grand Plan
There is no grand plan that
sets forth in simple terms what
we have to do to survive. and
why" he said.
Senator jackson, a frequent
critic Of administration defense
policies and programs, said
gaps and setbacks in recent
national efforts are not a par
tisan matter.
Democracy is on trial for
its life" he said. Neither party
has a monopoly of wisdom or a
monopoly of errors on this great
issue"
In support Of his contentious.
Senator Jackson cited what he
called top-level decisions to ac-
cept second place in the inter-
continental ballistic missile
race" and to let the Soviets put
the first successful satellites
into orbit.
I'VE have been outmaneu-
vered politically in one vital
area after another" he said,
adding that after recent re-
verses in the Middle East 1T
takes either a fool or a genius
to see anything but disaster
ahead"
Not Same Class
I'VE have never been in the
same league with the Russians
in the psychological war of
wits and words" he said.
What is most needed, Senator
Jackson said, is the same pub
lie understanding. spirit and
determination that enabled the
United States and its allies to
win the two world wars.
To attain this. the Senator
said. people must understand
that the cold war is a war, the
outcome Of which will be VIC
tory or defeat of the free way
of life"

George A. England. Director

chief Of psychiatry at District
General Hospital, said 1t is
possible to use psychological
tests to detect "accident-prone"
drivers before they kill some-
body, but said he doubted that
1t would be possible TO admin
lister such tests TO all potential
drivers. There are not enough
skilled personnel now and the
tests would take more than
eight hours to complete and
evaluate.
Mr.. English said the trafic
department now has to rely
considerably on the word Of
applicants for driving permits
that they are physically and
emotionally acceptable to drive
cars.

finding board TO sift issues in
the dispute and presumably to
recommend a basis for settle
ment. President Eisenhower
rejected these proposals, urging
management and the union to
continue negotiations.
Bargaining ended July IA, the
day before the strike began.
Joseph F. Finnegan, director of
the Federal Mediation and Con-
Citation Service, has been
talking to union and company
negotiators separately, with no
sign Of progress.
Secretary Mitchell maintained
his investigation has no rela-
ton at all to Mr.. McDonald's
request" for a fact-flnding
board. He said his inquiry diff
fers from the classic" Govern
ment fact-f1nding procedure in
two major respects:
/. Negotiations usually stop
while a fact-flnding board OPP
crates. Mr.. Mitchell said his
investigation docs not in any
way relieve management or the
union in the present steel dis
pute of their obligation to con-
tinue to negotiate in good faith
until a settlement is reached"
2. Fact-f1nding boards usu-
ally recommend terms for set
ting labor disputes. Mr.. Mitch
ell said he will make no such
recommendations.
Policy Change Seen
Nevertheless. the secretary's
investigation marks another
stage in the administrators
retreat from a "hands-off"
policy in the steel dispute.
The President has been re-
Iiuctant to intervene directly,
presumably because Govern
ment intervention in major
labor disputes in the past gen.
orally has resulted in high
wage settlements. Mr.. EiSen-
hover has warned repeatedly
against any steel settlement
that force steel prices up and
thus aggravate inflationary

Birth Control
Acquiescence
Loses Wife Case

The Municipal Court of APP
peals yesterday denied an an
nulment to a wife who said her
husband defrauded her by hid
ing his intention never to have
children.
In supporting Judge John H.
Burnett of Domestic Relations
Court, who turned down the
.annulment, the superior court
held the wife could not cry
fraud" because she acquiesced
in the use of birth-control de-
vices until the couple separated
after two years of marriage.
The wife, Beatrice c. Riedl,
of 3434 lakewood terrace NV,
a lawyer, testified her hus-
band had violated a premarital
agreement to put of having
children for only a year or
two"
Her husband, Otto M. Reid,
of 1916 Nineteenth street NV,
who did not contest the suit
or appear in court, was quoted
as saying he had hoped to
change his wife's mind once
they were married.

While everybody is concerned
with the health of peoples

timing of this propaganda
farce of American leaders,"
Observer wrote.
Americans are flocking to

a strike could cause shortages

he will seek and what they
may show. "All of the facts
surrounding this controversy, "
he answered to repeated ques-

Among other things, his in

Tense picture, the need for in
