The fright to know"-a
noble cause long espoused by
the press and championed.
too, by many so-called liberals
In Congress-got a body blow
during the Khrushchev visit
here. It was dealt by the
Senate Foreign Relations
Committees chairman, Sem
ator Fulbright, Democrat OF
Arkansas, and by q section
of the press itself, as well as
by the Soviet Embassy.
For the Senate Foreign Re-
lations Committee excluded
every member of the Ameri-
can press from its meeting
with Nikita Khrushchev, but
allowed three newspapermen
from the Soviet Union. who
were accompanying the Soviet
Premier. to attend the secret
hour and-a-half session with
the Senators.
1t wasn't surprising, on the
other hand, that the Soviet
officials, on the occasion Of
the dinner Wednesday night
for President Eisenhower,
permitted the Russian news
men and photographers to
enter the Soviet Embassy
but didn't let any American
newsmen or photographers
come in-they waited out
side in the rain. Yet Soviet
photographers were given the
same privileges as Americans
Just before the dinner Presi-
dent Eisenhower gave the
Soviet Premier at the White
House Tuesday night.
American newsmen them
selves handled the luncheon
at the National Press Club
for Mr.. Khrushchev, and.
curiously enough. certain i'm
portant interrogations didn't
materialize. One would have
supposed That. being interest
ed in the right to know" and
the freedom of the press
everywhere-particularly the
right of American newsmen
to 60 into the Soviet Union
they would have offered some
question on these matters.
1t Is well known, for in
stance, that only hand-picked
correspondents from the
United States can remain in
. the Soviet Union and that. II
they write what the Com
munists don't like, they will
be expelled-in fact. several
already have been sent out of
that country for that reason.

Juvenile Cana
Data Asked

The Commissioners Youth
Council has taken new steps to
head of trouble from the city's
juvenile gangs.
The council called tor more
extensive pooling Of informa-
ton on the gangs to aid in the
anti-delinquency work.
Acting on the recommended
lions Of its Gangs Committee,
headed by District Welfare Di-
rector Gerard Shea, the council
yesterday voted to:
/. Ask police officials to pass
on the names and locations OF
juvenile groups to chairmen of
its neighborhood Gangs Com
mittees. This would take place
at a meeting at which Mr.
Shea's committee would inform
the neighborhood chairmen of
steps already taken to block of
gang outbreaks.
2. Request police officials to
meet with Recreation Depart
ment personnel and the coun-
ellis staff to pool information
as q guide for assignments Of
the three additional rowing
leaders" recently hired by the
department. This suggestion
was made by the Recreation De-
partment representative on Mr..
Shea's committee.
At yesterdays meeting, it was
reported that although there
was an increase In juvenile de-
linquency during the past IL
months-the first in five years
there was no gang outbreak
during this period.
The Police Department re-
ports that its files carry the
names Of 224 juvenile gangs, Of
which 100 are active and 10
considered potentially dan
gerous.

LONDON, Sept. 10 (AP).-
Britain's Labor Party promised
today that a Laborite govern

nations broke the truce now in

Instead such a government.

Bon on U. S. Press at Khrushchev Tea
Hit as Obstacle to News Gathering

Columbia Broadcasting Sys-
tenn was expelled recently be-
cause the Soviet government
disliked an American televi-
sion broadcast originating in
this country. even though the
correspondent had nothing to
do with II.
Why does the Soviet Pre-
mier permit such things to
happen? Why Is there CEN
sorship Of news dispatches
from Moscow? Why have the
radio broadcasts Of the Voice
Of America" emanating from
this country been jammed by
the Soviet government for the
last 10 years?
1t remained for a United
States Senator to ask, at the
tea" given by the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee
later in the day. a question
about censorship, pointing out
that America has q free
press while Russia suppresses
the news at will. The Soviet
Premier replied:
well. We have two differ
ent systems-you call 1t CEN
sorship. We don't let people
publish untruths. They are
free to publish anything that
is true"
Incidentally, the Soviet
Premier is himself getting
away with a good deal Of fac
tual error. He told the Sen
ate Foreign Relations Com
mittee, for instance. that the
United States has cut back
on the cultural exchange pro-
gram. But President Eisen-
hover told his press confer
ence the next day that
America is trying to expand
the program and Is not cut
ting 1t down. The Soviet Pre-
mier nevertheless repeated
the same charge two hours
later in New York.
Again, Mr.. Khrushchev
told the Senators he and the
President had agreed not to
discuss third countries"
But Mr.. Eisenhower the next
day said. rather charitably,
that there must be some
kind of misunderstanding
brought about, possibly. by
faulty interpreting" Any
way, the President said he
doesn't see how there could
be any talks unless discus
sion of third countries &C.

pion Of his own side, equally
sporting and devoted. The
devotion plainly exists: the
sportsmanship is as clearly
absent.
Ambassador Lodge has
talked back" at the Mayors
luncheon for the Russian
guest. As political dialogue,
1t was effective. 1t has still to
be proved that such public
debate serves the purposes Of
this exchange Of visits.
Mr.. Khrushchev has still
to offer something really
new, though he limited he
might at the United Nations.
Nor will true negotiations
on points at issue begin until
he returns to Washington.
But it is well to remember
that the Soviet Premier got
what he most wanted when
he received his invitation to
visit this country. 1t is rec
ignition of the Soviet Union
as a world power with whom
that other world power, the
United States, must deal
face-to-face.
There is absolutely moth
ing to show so far that he
wants to alter the present
position except to rid himself
Of the nuisance and ex-
pense Of the cold war. That
is getting in his way and in
terfering with his plans for
Russia and he wants 1t
stopped. He has shown his
hope Of that. but to date he
has shown no fear. either.

Soviet Premier Reveals Several Moods
In Day of Activities in Woshinqton
RALPH McGILL

At about 8 o'clock in his
first morning in America,
Nikita Khrushchev startled
security officers and a few
early passersby intent on
reaching work. by strolling
out on the small stoop Of
Blair House.
He was in his shirtsleeves.
He might have been an early
riser coming out to see II
the paper had been deliver
ed. He stared across at the
White House, In q mood
contemplative. "A small
crowd gathered, including
reporters who were there
around the clock. One of
them attempted a few words
Of Russian. Mr.. Khrushchev
laughed pleasantly at the eff
fort and described 1t as very
good. He looked ebout for a
while as If interested in what
Washington was like at that
hour and ut last went lazily
back into the presidential
guest house.
That was one Khrushchev.
A few hours later there was
another. He sat dutifully on
the front row of a lecture
hall at Beltsville, Md, where
the huge Federal Agricultural
Research and Experimental
Station is located. He heard
agronomists in white coats.

Editor, Petal Paper,
Petal, Miss.
Dear Editor:
Here comes that Two-Headed
Boy again. You rascal you, you
have turned out to be real non
conformist like all the other great
men who have gone this way be-
fore you.
Some years ago DR.. Gorrie was
in charge of the Hospital in Apa-
lachicola, Florida where Govern
ment fever patients were being
treated. His patients so badly
needed ice, but no ice was to be
had. He confided in some of his
friends that he was about to per-
feet machine to make ice. Many
Of his friends began to shun him
and the church began to lambast
him from the pulpit. Said they
"On1y God could make ice." A
memorial now stands there in
honor of DR.. Gorrie, but those
poor theological nitwits still look
ing for God paid for a place in
Heaven and don't even know
where it is located. They make
no effort to better their condi-
tons because all their strength
is exhausted in keeping other
people from improving theirs.
Conventions, dear to mine and
me, from testing which we
shrink; All, where would true
religion be if everyone should
think? arthur Ryder)
Now, this Sam Snopes STAN
dard brand, is the chap who fol-
lows the leader because it is the
easiest way out. It takes effort to
think, so why be bothered about
something you know nothing a
bout, and anyway is there not
handed down, ready made plan
for them that only costs 1910 or
more. They tell us that all this
was worked out by a man named
Moses. AMI besides, all the male
children got an extra 1919 cut at
days old. Now that is something
we should feel very proud of.
Did not said Moses marry a
Negro girl (Etheopian) whom he
loved best of all and did he not
appoint her father Judge to help
rule his people? Does not Halle
Selassie claim kinship to King
Solomon through the visit of the
Queen of Sheba to Solomon's
Temple. These "Wonderful Peo-
pie" surely must have raised a
shady lot, but I don't suppose
the me-. church SOUTH" ever
told their members very much a.
bout it. The use of propaganda
was first used by the tribal witch
doctor or medicine man to con-
troll the minds of the people.
In this country when we had
slavery ignorance was the best
policy. The slave had no money,
nor did he have a soul to save
but as soon as he was freed and
could spend his own money they
straight way produced a soul for
him to wrastle with.
There is heaven, forever, day
by day.
The upward longing of my soul
doth tell me so.
There is hell, I'm quite sure;
for, pray,
If there is not where would my
neighbors go?

pretty complicated, so We'll skip

handle for it SO we can call it the
"fair housing practices act"
Sounds all right at first, anyway
everybody wants to be fair
about everything, or at least all
us white folks want to play fair
with each other. Some of us are
even fair to Jews and Catholics,
at the risk of losing our friend
ships in the Khan. But just you
wait and see how We'll have to
behave ourselves under this s'fair

Now, we're not telling you how
to think about the proposed law,
because we would never, never
put any editorial comment into
our news columns. That just
wouldn't be fair. So we'll simply

parts of the bill, and leave all
