CONSTANTINE BROWN
UItimotum From Khrushchev

underground organizations
are being advised by their
leaders to refrain from any
positive actions lest they cause
useless bloodshed and re-
prisals as developed in 1856
in Hungary. The Voice OF
America and Free Europe
have toned down consider
ably their broadcasts to satel-
lite countries.
The Khrushchev demand
that we extend him vast
credits to permit the still
far behind Soviet industry to
develop sufficiently to cut
our Threats in the interna-
tional markets will be difiicult
to meet. Despite his boast
that Soviet production will
overtake us in a few years.
the fact is that the Soviet
industries are with very few
exceptions at least 20 years
behind ours.
This has been the conclu-
sion Of most members of the
party which accompanied
Vice President Nixon to Rus
STA. In order to anywhere
near approach our produc-
ton of goods other than
those for war purposes. the
Soviet Union must be able to
purchase whole factories be-
sides tooling from this coun-
try. But Russia does not want
to part with her gold and in
Sists on credits. Credits to in
dividual nations are based on
their rating. That of the
USSR is definitely bad. Not
only have the Russians
welshed on the agreements
signed in 1888 with President
Roosevelt to resume diplo-
matte relations but they have
also welshed on repayments
for certain goods sold them
during and Immediately after
World War II.
Mr.. Khrushchev's demand
that American machinery
and other exports be given to
the Soviet Union on the cuff
is tantamount to exacting
tribute from us.

WILLIAM S. WHITE
A Hoirbreodth ESCAPE
Compromise Labor Measure Viewed
As Ldst-Minute Victory for Democrats

The Democratic Congress
and two of the principal
Democratic presidential pos
sibilities. Senators Kennedy
and > johnson. have turned
looming disaster into moder-
ate triumph over the labor
issue.
The acceptance by Senate
and House leaders OF q COM
promise labor reform bill is
by all odds the most signifi-
cant fact of this session.
All else pales beside 1t. Viewed
in one light 1t is a hair
breadth escape for the Demo-
cratic Party generally. For
II Congress had adjourned
without being able to act in
this field - and there was
the greatest danger Of just
this - the Democrats would
have entered the 1860 presi-
Dental campaign year under
a heavy handicap.
In no other way and on no
other issue could Republican
charges Of Democratic do
nothingiSm" have been more
validity exploited. Almost no
politician will deny that the
public had demanded a labor
cleanup.
Viewed in another and
more affirmative light, the
ability Of Congress to act has
kept intact the large field Of
Democratic presidential as
pirants. Ultimate deadlock
and inaction would have de-
stroyed all real hope for Sem
ator Kennedy. He had staked
everything on establishing his
leadership qualities on this
single issue of labor.
The same would have been
true Of Senator johnson. 1t
was not so much that he per-
sonally had any commanding
position on the question. 1t
was simply that as Senate
Democratic leader he would
have borne crushing blame
for the inaction Of his party.
Thus, among the conse-

After the House completed
action on the bill. Mr.. Hoffa
put out a statement saying:

hoax ever put across on the
American worker. 1t claims tc

fact it is primarily aimed al
destroying the hard-won rights
of American labor to win and

Mr.. Hoffa commended the bill

sense, It was he who took
the Democrats OF the hook"

Highly combative. and un-

ready to take the Republicans
into a. position Of total re-
fusal Of any compromise. Mr..
Dirksen moved in to see to it
that this kind Of position was
not maintained.
Thus, this Is the net Of
what happened: The great
bulk Of the Democrats at
lcngth overcame the partys
liberal and prolabor extrem-
lists. Mr.. Dirksen and his.
moderate COP. associates
did the same with his party's
antilabor ultraconservatives.
So, no matter what day this

be secondary. The great crisis

But the probability is that
it will lie on the shelf in the
House until 1860. This will
provide the Democrats next
year with quite enough in the
way of divisive work. To have
had labor also on the docket
in 1860 would have been to
invite sheer party catastro-

quences Of what amounts to a

Dor controversy are these:

the Democratic hopefuls,
Senator's johnson and Ken
nedy. have been kept alive
for the 1860 convention.
2. The campaigns Of the
more advanced liberal as
pirants. Senators Hubert H.
Humphrey and Stuart Sym
ington. are surely not for
warded by this fairly tough"
labor measure. Both, and
particularly Senator Hum
phrey, would have been better
served by a far softer bill.
8. The Republicans, for
their part, have helped the
Democrats to blunt the issue
for 1860. The compromise bill
will actually not too greatly
displease much Of organized
labor. It will not wholly sat-
isfy the management side.
But 1t will be enough to go on
with, at least until 1861 when
Congress will be in position to
make any needed revisions in
the post-election calm.
What the Republicans have
done. indeed, is one Of the
most arresting and little
known parts Of the story.

the Democrats get off the
hook" Their technique was
to insist on labor reforms
so severe as to make 1t
impossible to act at all and
so to hold up the majority
Democrats as nondoers.
