Half q Loaf

Mr.. Khrushchev in his address
to the U. N. did not bar discus
sion of partial disarmament il
the West were to reject the sweep
ing program he presented. Since
then other spokesman for the
Communist bloc have repeated
their willingness to talk of half
a loaf if necessary.
Many U. N. delegates predict
that the Assembly debate will re-
suit in little or no specific action,
but will set the stage for serious
discussions to be held next year
by a special donation disarma-
ment subcommiSsion. That group.
comprising five nations from the
Western side and five from the
Communist bloc, will function
outside the U. N. but will be re-
Sponsible to it.
Mr.. Kuznetsov, in Fridays de-
bate. pointed to the economic boon
for underdeveloped nations. to the
relief for the worlds taxpayers,
and the strengthening of national
economics which would ensue were
the arms race to be ended. He
contended, too, that there would
be no serious economic shock to
the United States economy if the
present huge military spending
were halted.

The Turning Point

The turning point in the steel
negotiations, which have been
going on since last May 5. came
last Monday when the union re-
jected as totally unacceptable"
the first formal money offer made
by management.
The companies tied what they
called a 15-cent package offer
over a two-year period to certain
changes in local work rules they
contend are necessary to increase
efficiency and productivity. The
union said the offer amounted to
only 1912 cents for two years and
actually would result in a cut in
take-home pay the first year. The
proposed work rule changes were
again denounced in bitter terms.
Mr.. Eisenhower then sent Sec
rotary Mitchell on a secret mis-
sion to each of the contending
parties, apparently in an effort
to determine the chances, if any,
of settlement in the near future.
The Mitchell report evidently
convinced Mr.. Eisenhower that
the time had come for strong
action.

gether on a program. Mr.. Hugh
Gaitskell as Prime Minister and
the stormy. articulate but often
unpredictable Aneurin Bevan as
his Foreign Secretary would have
presented problems which, in the
case of Mr.. Macmillan. have al
ready been resolved.
In Vladivostok, metropolis of
Soviet Siberia, an optimistic Mr..
Khrushchev last week was talking
confidently of a summit confer
ence this fall or winter" And
he was still praising Mr.. Eisen-
hover as a man of wisdom, an
earnest seeker for world peace.
Even when the Soviet leader re-
peated his favorite theme of the
superiority of communism over
the capitalist system, he chose his
words with care. 1t was plain that
he sought diligently to avoid even
hint of the provocative or the
threatening. The Premier's re-
marks in Peiping, where he had
gone to join in the festivities cele-
brating the 10th anniversary of
the Chinese Peoples Republic,
and all along his leisurely route
back to Moscow, seemed addi-
tional evidence that he is deter
mined to find reliable modus
vivendi with the West.
On Tuesday, Secretary of State
Herter told the second press con-
ference of his incumbency that
basic issues between East and
West still remained. But he OBJ
served that world tensions had
already been eased, making the
solution of differences at least

Threat to Berlin

But Mr.. Herter did see a dis
position of the threat" to West
Berlin in the Eisenhower-Khru-
shchev talks. More than that, he
said there was certainly in Mr..
Khrushchev's attitude a degree of
sincerity" What it meant, he
suggested, would have to await
the developments of the next few
months.
"On that score" he declared, II
can only say that time will tell.
But I would like to be optimistic.
The Secretary deliberately
avoided speculation on the prob
able date or composition of the
summit conference everyone ex-
poets. He opened his press con-
ference with a prepared state
ment that said only that "the
matter of a summit conference,
and when or where it might be
held, is, as the President said last
week, a subject for consultation
with other nations. Until that
process has been completed can
not properly say anything fur

nouncement on Tuesday. But

Fuct-Finding Board

Mr.. Eisenhower took the first
step toward the 80-day cooling
off" injunction late Friday after
noon when he appointed a facts
finding board Of three outstanding
citizens who are to study the strike
and report back to him by next
Friday.
This was the second time in four
days that Mr.. Eisenhower invoked
Taft-Hartley in a labor dispute
and the 18th time a President has
done so since the law was enacted
in 1947.
He named a fact-f1n6ing board
in the East-Gulf coasts dock walk
out on Tuesday and it reported
back to him in one day. a prelim-
mary To-day injunction was quick
ly obtained and by last Friday
morning, about $4,000 lockers
were back on their jobs, unloading
and loading more than 200 ships
which had been caught in the g.
AdJ OIL 1hC.
The fact that Mr.. Eisenhower
has given the board a full week to
study the steel situation, together
with the formidable regulations
of its members, indicates that the
President has not given up all hope
that a settlement may somehow
be reached without an injunc-
ton.
Prof. George w. Taylor of the
Wharton School of Finance and
Commerce of the University of
Pennsylvania, is the board chair
man. Self-deScribed as "arbitra-
tor and educator" he was chair
man of the War Labor Board
during World War II and head of
the Wage Sterilization Board in
the Korean War. The other board
members are John Alanson Per-
kins, president of the University
OF Delaware, and Paul N. Le-
hoczky, an industrial engineer
and professor who has helped ar
bitrate more than 2,400 labor dis
puteS.

heAHCIeors

Most of what was said at these
meetings is not on record for the
perusal of historians and journal
lists. But things began to move,
rapidly and positively. The for
eign ministers of the West and
the Soviet Union met in Geneva
for many long weeks; they accom-
plished little of a concrete nature,
but the air seemed clearer, free
to an amazing extent of the ex-
change of bitter charges and
counter-charges characteristic of
previous EaSt-West meetings.
Then there came, in September,
the visit Of Soviet Premier Khru-
shchev to the United States. In
the long tenure of the late Secre-
tary of State Dulles, such visit
would have been almost unimagi-
nable. Yet 1t took place, and by
and large was viewed as extremely
successful despite some dangerous
moments Of tension. Both Mr..
Khrushchev and Mr.. Eisenhower
have been aSsiduous in praising
the potential benefits to an en-
during world peace in the results
of the Khrushchev tour.
Without a doubt, Mr.. Macmil-
Ian profited greatly in the general
election from the results of his
mission to Moscow last winter:
When he and Mr.. Eisenhower,
chummily seated side-by-side,
told a BIC television audience of
their mutual efforts in the inter-
ests of peace, the politically wise
observed that no better campaign
material had ever been devised.
1t had long been accepted as
inevitable that the Labor Party's
pitch to the British electorate was
going to be an appeal to the
known yearning for an accom-
mediation with the Soviet bloc
that would ensure an enduring
and honorable peaceful cock
iStence." With his February trip
and his ensuing journeys, capped
by Mr.. Eisenhower's visit to Lon
don, the Prime Minister adroitly
appropriated Labor's own plat
form.

ForCENTO:

The late Secretary of State
Dulles based much of his foreign
policy on Commitment" of Com
muniSt expansion. Snoring up
such bastions of defense as the
North Atlantic Treaty Organiza-
ton, and creating new defensive
alliances around the perimeter of
the Communist world was major
aim in creating the position of
strength" he felt necessary.
Mr.. Dulles took the lead in pro-
posing and organizing the South

composed of the United States,
Britain, France, the Philippines,
Thailand, Pakistan, Australia and
New Zealand. But the neutralist

TeIevision:
Scandal

When Herbert M. Stempel, a
32-year-old graduate student, first
made his charges about quiz show
fixing" in the summer of 1858, no
one, it seemed, was quick to be-
lieve him.
New York newspapers took his
tale with a large grain of salt
and it was some time before they
printed it. The New York District
Attorneys Office was extremely
cautious in its comments, being
careful not to promote the idea
that there might be a distasteful
scandal in the televiSion industry.
The National Broadcasting Co.
was outraged at Mr.. Stempel's
story that he had been given the
questions and answers in advance
each time he appeared on the
then highly popular, but now
defunct, "Twenty-One" show. An
NBC official said stiff1y that the
network had heard the charges
lover a year ago" and that I'VE
made an investigation and found
them to be utterly baseless and
untrue"
Last week, the House Commit
tee on Legislative Oversight drew
back the curtain and found one
of the most sordid chapters in
TV history. Contestants and pro-
ducers alike, testifying under oath.
admitted that the shows were
rugged, that the millions of Amer
leans who brought Twenty One"
"Dotto" and "Tic Tao Dough"
into their living rooms had been
deceived. An official of the Co.
lumbia Broadcasting System said
that his organization had inves-
tigated and found improper
practices" on the $4,000 Chal-
lenge," Name That Tune" and
For Love or Money"
There was testimony, too, that
a panicky lawyer and show pro-
Queer had counseled witnesses to
lie to the New York county grand
jury, which considered the scan
dals for nine months.
Much of what the committee
heard last week was testimony
given in secret to the grand jury
earlier in the year. The jury voted
no indictments, presumably be-
cause there are no State or Fed
eral laws against rigging television
shows. But it made a presentment
to the court which was sealed by
Federal Judge Mitch ell D.
Schweitzer.
The committee was given access
to the minutes and transaction of
the grand jury's proceedings. but
not to its findings and recon-
mendationS.
Mr.. Stempel led off the public
testimony before the committee,
repeating his earlier charges that
he was supplied with questions and
answers each time until he ran
up winnings of $49,500 on the
Twenty One" show. Then he was
Informed that he must take a

Last week the surviving mem
bers Of the Baghdad Pact met in

forts to bring about a relaxation

words and deeds are two diff
ferent things we should wait
and see, but at the same time we
should not let down our guard"
The United States, although a
prime mover in forming the origi-
nal Baghdad Pact and closely as
ISOLATED with the successor
CENTO group, has never held full
membership. Despite the per-
slstent urging of the member ma
lions, American policy has been
to assist the pact and take an
active part in its activities but to
refrain from membership. Secre-
tary Herter has reafirmed that
policy since succeeding Mr.. Dulles,
and last week Mr.. Herter served
as chairman of the meeting of the
CENTO Council.
The United States, the State
Department said, welcomed the
CENTO meeting in Washington
as further evidence of the United
States support of these nations in
their determination to maintain
national independence and in
tegrity."

Warning by President

In announcing the boards APP
pointment, the President said he
had been informed by both sides
that negotiations had broken
down and that neither side saw
a quick settlement. Then he
warned the disputants:
Nevertheless, want to empha-
size that the action I have taken
in no way relieves the parties of
their grave obligation to the
American people to resume nego-
tiations and reach a just and re-
sponsible settlement at the earli-
est possible time"
II, as most observers believe
likely, the board completes it's
study and no agreement is reached
by union and management, Mr..
Eisenhower will direct the Attor-
ney General to seek an 80-day in
junction.
This does not mean, however,
that the injunction will be granted
automatically or Immediately.
The SteelworkerS, who see such
a move by the President as a
Strike breaking" device, have an
nounced they will challenge in the
courts the validity of an injunc-
ton, presumably on the ground
that no threat to the national
health and safety actually exists.
