Men Who Came to Dinner

Richard Nixon and Nelson Rookie
feller had dinner on opposite sides of
the continent the other night, but all 1t
confirmed was that both are smart and
patient politicians. They had proved 1t
earlier the same day, and not for the
first time, in a well-photographed
"hands across New York" celebration
marking the 350th anniversary of Henry
Hudson's nonpolitical exploration of
what has since become known as the
Hudson River. Neither Mr.. Nixon nor
Mr.. Rockefeller was more communica-
tive about personal political plans than
was sailorman Hudson so many years
ago.
Nevertheless, there was plenty of
politics in the air, both in New York
City and equally so at Mr.. Nixon's dinner
in San Francisco and Mr.. Rockefeller's
in Washington. In our town, the New
York Governor was guest of honor at
one of his own clubs, the Capitol Hill
Club, where shirtsleeves and Maine lob
ster were the features of the evening. In
predinner encounters with the press,
Mr.. Rockefeller held firmly to his often
expressed platform" of being engroSsed
in his duties as Governor Of New York
and acknowledging no further political
deSigns-Such as being the 1860 Repub-
lican presidential candidate. There was
an impressive post-lobster unanimity
of belief among fellow diners, a pretty
influential Republican gathering, that
Mr.. Rockefeller made "a great impress
Sion."
Out in San Francisco, Vice President
Nixon was guest of honor at the Com
monwealth Club. Although the menu
was not reported, some of Mr. Nixon's re-
marks were. With the ease Of an "old
pro-" he bestowed some gracious, but
qualified, compliments on several Of the
potential Democratic presidential nomi-
nees while expressing confidence that
the Republican standardbearer, who
ever he is" will win the election. 1t is
"too early" he explained, to discuss his
own plans-or even to admit having any.
For the time being, it seems that the
only new conclusion to draw from these
two events is that the two top Republican
figures enjoy dining out.

Give Where You Work

The United Givers Fund has acted
wisely, in the light Of recent experience,
in planning to concentrate on the "give
where you work" program during its
campaign next fall. BY cutting down
on residential canvassing the UGF will
reduce much duplication Of effort and,
at the same time, avoid the annoyances
which such duplication generates.
It has been found that the bulk Of
the money contributed by UGF sup
porterS comes from the business COM
munity and Government Offices. Most
of the areas residents now give through
their places of employment. To be So
licited again at home is irritating The
time wasted on these unnecessary visits
might better be devoted to extending
campaign coverage among business Arms
and professional Offices.
The new policy does not rule out
all house-to-house canvassing, however.
There are many would-be givers who
have no office connections and the UGF
has list of these. They will be called
on by special group from the Metro
politan Unit. There are undoubtedly
others not on any list who should be
giving to the fund. They ought to be
made the subject of special appeals. In
short, everyone who can afford to give
should be glad to become partners in
this vital community enterprise, aimed
at raising the money needed by many
agencies in one intensive and compre-
henSive drive.

Canal Park Compromise

A House Interior subcommittee has
approved a compromise Chesapeake &
Ohio Canal Parkway bill that ought to
end the long stalemate over the park
versus-water supply issue. The revised
measure would assure the development
of a scenic national park along the old
canal from Great Falls to Cumberland,
while making it clear that part Of the
park might have to be sacrificed in the
future to make way for vital water
impounding works.
Even without a specific proviSo OF
the sort written into the bill, there can
be no doubt as to the power of Congress
later to condemn any part Of the park
for such an essential purpose as water
supply. But experience elsewhere has
indicated that unless the intent of Con-
gresS is spelled out in the initial legiSla-
ton, efforts later to obtain park prop
erty for water supply or irrigation are
rendered more difficult. Federal park
officials had strongly opposed any water
supply provision in the pending bill.
The amendment recommended by
the subcommittee does not mention wa
ter supply. However, it is broad enough
to include not only water supply but
any other nonpark purpose which Con-
gress might decide was essential in the
public interest. We hope the bill as
thus revised, or with some similar pro-
vision in it, will be passed by Congress
at this session. The canal parkway
project has been too long delayed by
the controversy over water rights.

mated by cutting down on nonmilitary
grants and the creation Of conditions
in which the recipient countries might
move forward under their own momen-
tum-with technical assistance, loans
and orthodox methods of international
financing.
There will, Of course, be a con-
tinuing need for foreign aid program.
II 1t is to accomplish its purpose, how
ever, 1t must be based on a realistic
appraisal of the needs and resources of
all the free world. AS one newspaper
which has consistently supported for
eign aid, we do not accept Senator
Mansf1elds proposals as necessarily be-
ing the best or the final answer. Coming
from man of his stature, however,
they should command respect.

Geneva Stolemute

With five weeks of haggling behind
them, the Foreign Ministers have made
no visible progress toward any sgree-
ment on or settlement of the Berlin
problem. They are scheduled to meet
in what is described as restricted ses-
sion tomorrow, but there is no reason
to suppose that this will be more fruit
full than the sessions which have pre-
ceded it.
The Western representatives, very
properly, have rejected Russian pro-
poSal that the West be permitted to
remain in Berlin for IL months on con-
dition that the Vests garrisons be
reduced, that propaganda and espio-
mage activities be banned and that
atomic or missile installations be pro-
hibited. To agree to this, obviously,
would have been to concede the oppo-
sition'S right to evict the West after the
12-month reprieve, and Of course no
such concession should or will be made.
Mr.. Gromyko has denied that his
proposal carried any threat or ultima
tum, thereby making it possible for the
Vests negotiators to continue the dis
cussions. And this, we think, Is the
right thing to do, even though the Gro
myko statement that Russia will never
sign an agreement perpetuating the
occupation status in Berlin underscores
the probable futility of future talks.
The West has indicated, however,
that it is willing, on quid pro quo basis,
to discuss such items as a reduction in
the garrisons, propaganda, espionage,
etc. Admittedly, it looks hopeless. Still,
having gone to Geneva, the United
States, France and Britain should care
fully explore every possibility. At
minimum, if this is done, we will know
whether there is any sense in a summit
meeting. And the Russians will not
be able to make propaganda capital out
Of the claim that the Geneva confer
ence was torpedoed by the West.

PTAs and Schools

Are pianos, deep freezers

ment of questionable value
in a school?
To my knowledge. the only
criticism leveled at PTA-
financed projects was in re-
gard to such items that were
Of dubious value or which
later created maintenance or
operation problems. One
such criticized item was an
intercommunication system
for an elementary school.
And yet a short time after
the controversy, the School
Board Of Fairfax County, on
May 20, voted to take over
some well-established and de-
sirable PTA projects at a
cost Of many dollars to the
county. Why the necessity
Of such a decision? Hereto

Dulles COURAGE

Since the passing Of John
Foster Dulles, we've often
thought back to an article
by DR.. Frederick Brown
Harris, in The Stars Spires
Of the Spirit" It said: ITO
every man there is given the
choice of drifting or rowing
to use the oars Of our
free will to battle the cur
rents which threaten to
sweep US away from the
spiritual ends and values Of
life, or to lay down our oars
and tiredly succumb TO the
worlds subtle but persistent
pressures.
Among the many fine
tributes paid Mr.. Dulles was
one that he had firmly estab-
lished himself in the worlds
mind as an unyielding. de-
fiant anti-C Communist. And
although he was frequently
attacked in the West. as well
as In the East, for his alleged
infexibility, his moralizing.
his resistance to compromise.
in death and in his coura-
geous fight against cancer he
became a symbol Of accord.
rather than discord.
1t was said. too. that even
during his last painful weeks
Mr.. Dulles often refused sed-
atives in order that his mind
might remain clear and that
as long as possible. his great
understanding Of foreign af-
fairs might be at the call
OF our President and new
Secretary Of State.
He. indeed. battled until
the last moment, "the cur
rents which threaten to
sweep US away from the
spiritual ends and values Of
life"

America. First

In Mortimer Adler's article,
"Nationalism Is Not an En-
tirely New Phenomenon" I
object to his even bringing
world government into the
topic.
The Communists are striv-
ing to break down all national
trends In mont Communist
countries. No one should love
his country or hold any pa
triotism for it, they feel; that
is a sign Of the petty bour-
geois. According to Com
munists the only patriotism
should be for Communist
Russia.
I gather Mr.. Adler is q pro-
ponent of world government.
as he states that nationalism
is not an insurmountable
problem.
When a world is struggling
to combat communism, people
who have the public ear
should do all in their power
to promote Americanism here
in this country. Anyone who
is interested in the United
States should not be inter-
ested in or promoting world
government. I do not feel
that strong nationalism or
patriotism hinders the CO.
operation Of nations for their
common good. ANY country
willing to give up its SOW
ereignty to world government
deserves the scorn that will
be heaped upon 1t.
Let our goal be promoting
America"

lime for q Change?

Senator Mansfield Of Montana, as
sistant Democratic floor leader and an
influential member of the Foreign Rela-
tions Committee, has raised a fun
damental question about our foreign
aid program. 1t is, in brief, whether
1t must necessarily be continued indef1-
nitely in the pattern Of the paSt-with
the yearly controversy centering only
on the amount Of funds to be approprl-
ated and diStributed-or whether the
time has come for new and more
flexible concept of how we may best
share our economic, and military,
strength with the free peoples OF the
world.
Mr.. Mansfield, proposing five spe-
cific changes in the mutual security bill
pending before the Senate, said this OF
the foreign aid program: 1T must be
improved if it is to survive as useful
instrument Of the foreign policy OF this
Nation and of the expansion OF human
freedom in the world" These words
have added meaning when read in con-
junction with those Of the nonpartisan
Draper committee which has been en-
gagged at President Eisenhower's request
in a study of the mutual security effort
The committee, acknowledging "the con-
slant use of foreign aid as a whipping
boy" said this: "The United States
should commit itself to go ahead with
a constructive program in this whole
field, both military and economic, or
alternately determine that we should no
longer undertake the program" And,
for the record, both Senator Mansfield
and the Draper committee are in favor
OF foreign aid.
In proposing his amendments, which
may or may not be the best answer for
this yearly debate and its ultimate i'm
pact upon our foreign relations, Mr..
Mansfield was at least being realistic
when he emphasized the need for a
greater measure of acceptance among
the people of this Nation and among
the recipient peoples abroad" of use
full and effective program. To achieve
greater acceptance at home, he Sug-
gested among other things less secrecy
about the aid given to individual coun-
tries, a gradual reduction and eventual
elimination of massive grants and, per-
haps most appealingly of all, careful
determination that each dollar spent
for military assistance "is better spent
abroad than at home" AS for reaction
abroad, Mr.. Mansfield was touching on
delicate but important point when he
suggested that the state Of "one-sided,
endless dependence" might be termi-

that might tip the economy
into q recession" Those who
fear imitation don't get to-
gether with those who fear

The President says "the
relationship between the
balanced diet and the bal
anced budget are easily un-
derstood." He ought to look
more closely at that relation

What Is q balanced Diet?
It is q diet which gives one
an adequate amount Of the

Is its contribution to healthy
living. not whether it is in

dent disregards his own

Recently the press reported
that there was apparently
current belief on Capitol Hill.
and at the White House as
well. that the primary Soviet
menace now is economic
rather than military.
Is 1t possible that the
United States Is the victim Of
the most formidable plot in
the annals Of craftsmanship?
AS Russia rattles its mis-

which we respond by more

that that has come to mean.
is Its right hand (which we

in building and perfecting its
general industrial capacity
with the primary, II not in

really wiping US out eco

Could it be working more
beautifully? They are win

may well become millstones,
or worse. around Russia's
neck would be Of small COM

AFTER q day Of frequent

with President Taft, and of

leaders in the Senate were
able to assure themselves
last night that they had
succeeded in compromising
the income tax situation,
which had caused them

the straight out income tax
