Capitals Study Herter Hint
iOf German Pact With Reds
BY EARL II. VOSS
star stan Writer

Secretary of State Herter's
hint that the way toward a
possible agreement between
East and West on Germany
may exist was under study in
world capitals today.
. he indicated yesterday that
the United States would be
willing TO meet the Soviet
Union part way in its demand
for East German parity In ne
gotiations with West Germany
for German reunificstion.
, The West has insisted that
the West German governments
three-to-one population advan-
taee be recognized in a pro-
posed reunification commits
sion of IS West Germans and
10 East Germans.
In his first public press con-
ference since he took over as
Secretary two and one-half
months ago, Mr.. Herter yester-
day modified the American
stand. 1.-THE numbers that make
up the group don't feel that
Is an item of too great impor-
lance" he said,
Veto by Either Side Seen
Decisions of the S5-member
! commission would be taken by
q tl1ree-fourths vote, requiring
some East German votes as
well as all Is West German
votes. "In effect" Mr.. Herter
said, "either side had a veto
on the other. If agreement
had to be reacher, the numbers
on each side are not of primary
Importance"
Off1cials explained later that
Mr.. Herter referred to voting
procedures and had no inten-
ton of implying the United
States is ready to accord Com
munist East Germany any
greater degree of recognition.
The West, American officials
said, has no intention of grant,
ing the East German regime
absolute equality Of numbers
in negotiations with West Ger
many.
Mr.. Herter said he was hope
full but not optimistic about
prospects when the Big -Four
foreign ministers resume nego-
tiations next Monday at &C.
neva.
Seeks 3-Week Limit
II am hoping we will not be
there longer than three weeks"
he said. He acknowledged
there is a possibility the talks
might be continued at lower
level if they were to drag.
Our first responsibility" he
said of the resumption Of the |
Geneva conference, lis to find
out what the official position
is" of the Soviet government.
Two uncertainties about the |
Soviet position have cropped
up in the recess, he related.
First, Soviet Foreign Minister
Gromyko indicated that the
United States had made IAN
entirely false assumption" that
the Kremlin was demanding
forfeiture of occupation rights
at the end of an 18-month in
term agreement on Berlin.
That is a new point on
which we certainly would want |
some Qualification" Mr.. Herter |
said.
Deadlines Are Other Point
The other uncertainty is
about the 12-month and l8-
month headlines suggested by
the Soviet Union for reaching
agreement on the Berlin and
German problems. Both Soviet
Premier Khrushchev and Mr..
Gromyko have said the time !
period is neither a matter Of |
Importance or of principle" the
Secretary recalled. This pre- !

Two elements in art make

The other is in finding new

Here's a caIl-to-arms from one
Of Americas faVorite humoristS,
who is also an experienced
schooIteacher II and parent!
BY SAM LEVENSoN

Farents of the world - unite! That's my battle
cry. and maybe it sounds little too infammatory
But I'm one ex-high-scho teacher who believes
that unless we, the amalgamated parents of
America, gather soon at our nearest PTA chapter
to organize civil defense" against the creeping
demands of our kids for new and many-splen-
dored privileges, history will remember us as
generation of good schnookS" rather than wise
parents.
Now don't get me wrong. l love children. l
want the little rascals to have as much fun and
freedom as PROPOSES. But don't want the Bill
of Rights to turn into the Rights of Billy. Having
just completed speaking tour of over $50 Parent
Teacher groups across the country, can tell you
that, almost to mother and father. parents are
worried and resentful at their inability to halt
twentieth-century Children's Crusade dedicated
to the pursuit of slap-happness.
Beware OF kindergarchyI
| have heard lot of Europeans making wise
cracks about women wearing the pants in Ameri-
can homes. That's lot Of eyewaSh! It's not
matriarchy, rule by women, that we have to fear.
The society we're headed for is kindeEgaTchy,
government of the children, by the children and
for the children.
Back in grandpa's day parents were in the
saddle. There were well-established rules of
behavior for growing boys and girls. TeleviSion
shows hadn't popularized the idea that all parents
are good schnookS. The word mo" now prac-
ticalIy obsolete, was often aimed at ones own
child without fear that Junior would hobble off
with permanent wound in his psyche.
Nowadays, dads easy chair is no longer the

down. On the contrary every household is per-
manent court Of appeals where decisions are con-
stantIy reversed, the verdict is seldom guilty."
punishment rarely imposed, and the young
plaintiff usually wins the judges sympathy. and
damages to boot.
They're In Unions Now
The trouble is that while parents no longer pre-
sent united front, kids are practically union1ed!
They've got their own set Of rules and their own
Standard Operating Procedure for befuddling
issues and wangiine that extra ounce Of special
favor. Where they find time to rehearse I'll never
know. But they've all got the same answers for
whiting down resistance.
For instance, let's say your l5-year-old daueh-
ter wants to stay out until am next Saturday
night. You, her mother, who probably never
stayed out that late until you were married, have
obvious msgivings. You utter a trembly and
tentative mo"
But, Mother" says your daughter. 'Linda's
mother lets her do it!''
The poison Of doubt has been planted. Your
daughter steps back and watches it work. You
don't want to be the only monster" on the block
so you reluctantly give in. What you don't
know is that Lnda's mother lets Linda out only
because Linda told her that you approve.
Multiply this hocus-pocus by millions Of fami-
lies and you'll see why we need, and quick,
meeting of adult minds to work out some clever
counter strategy.
Who Calls The Tuner
Our kids are already calling the tune in almost
everything. The rock n roll tunes they're call
ing on the airwaves strike me as too awful for
words - or music 1t is impossible to tell Junior
it's time for bed because, though he wears wrist
watch, he recognizes only television time -
Zorro O'Clock or half past Maverick. Clothes?
THIS Weeks Dick Clark is fighting for neatness,
but our offspring have sold US on the idea that
it's smart to be sloppy. And were not smart
enough - or organized enough to teach the
kids that clothes still make the man, and lady.
Schools are proving just as ineffective as par
entS at making kids toe the line. That's because
everybody in the system is afraid of somebody.
