It appeared to be building
up to something when Pascual
dug a fast bali into Lopez's
back in the fourth. Lopez took
a few steps toward the mound,
bat in hand, but was restrained
by Ed Rommel, plate umpire.
When Lopez reached first

batted in the fifth, he was
f1oored by Terry before deli
vering his first single.
After Allison singled across
a run in the fifth, he continued
to second base on the throw
to the plate. When he went
into second it was with such
aggressiveness that Lopez's
legs might have been located
in leftfield If Hector had
elected to stand his ground.
But reason gave way to any
lingering animosity he felt for
the Senators. and he nimbly
avoided a tangle.

Thowing Process

In its weekend celebration OF the
42d anniversary of the BolShevik revo-
luton, the Kremlin was at pains to en-
phasize the peaceful aspects OF Soviet
life. The military segment of the great
annual parade in MoscowS Red Square
was one of the smallest in many years,
the overwhelming bulk of the marcherS
having been civilians equipped with
banners hailing the benef1cent poten-
tialitieS of the atom, singing the praises
of social, economic and scientific prog
ress in the USSR, and calling for amity
among all nations.
Moreover, at the main social func-
ton marking the occasion, Premier
Khrushchev displayed himself in one
of his most jovial moods, and he made
point of proposing numerous toaStS to
peace and saying some pleasant words
about Americans. Among other things,
he declared that the international stu
alton is better, that times are easier and
that the outlook for ending the cold war
has improved. All in all, he conducted
himself on this red-letter Soviet holiday
in a manner suggesting that he wanted
to be friends with everybody and was
reasonably optimistic about the posi-
bility of doing away with tension in the
world, particularly as between his coun-
try and ours.
All this, of course, is in keeping with
the, mood Mr.. Khrushchev has been
showing ever since his visit to the United
States and his talks with President Eli
senhower. Perhaps it will prove to be
fieeting and insincere thing. Taken at
face value, however, it represents
refreshing change from the Kremlin's
snarling policy of the past, and If the
Soviet Premier adhereS to it, If he really
means what he says, the thawing proc
ess in the cold war may well be speeded
up in way that could lead, step by step,
to decent peace.

Hocus-Pocus Degrees

Thirty years ago The Star published
a series of articles exposing So-called
diploma mills. These phony schools and
colleges were in the shady business OF
issuing degrees to local residents willy
nilly-the chief requirement being the
mailing of fee. Legislation barring
them from operating in the District
resulted from The Stars findings. We
are especially pleased, therefore, that
Secretary Flemming of the Department
of Health, Education and Welfare has
launched a Nationwide drive to put
all fake educational institutions out OF
business.
DR.. Flemming correctly calls these
fraudulent degree factories "a very Seri-
Gus blight on the American educational
system" He gave these examples Of
some of the alleged degrees offered by
some of the offending institutions:
Ms.D. doctor of MetaphysicS); D.D.M.
doctor of Divinity in Metaphysics);
R.H. (RegiStered Hypnotist); PIT. (Prac-
titioner of TRUTH. There are many more
such degree" of them DOCTOR
ateS of one thing or another. Nearly all
of them offer the degrees" by mall,
usually after selling so-called courses to
gullible students.
The American Council on Education
recently disclosed that about 100000
students, many of them in foreign lands,
are paying out about $75 million each
year for the worthless degrees. The
basic responsibility for curbing such
fakery, DR.. Flemming points out, rests
with local authorities in the States and
cities. But the Federal Government will
cooperate by publishing list of the
diploma mills as warning to the pub
lie. A two-way attack of this sort should
go far toward ending the educational
fiimflam game which has victimized so
many young people in search OF knowl-
edge or prestige or both.

Pay Up-or EIsel

Democratic National Chairman But
Ter, who has not been in the forefront OF
those expressing concern about the state
of the Federal budget, feels very strongly
about the condition Of his own partyS
treasury. 1t is not what 1t should be, Mr..
Butler has advised State Democratic
organizations, and he has had about
enough of such nonsense. In fact, Mr..
Butler makes It clear that those States
which are too slow with their dough may
be getting some pretty poor convention
seats and hotel accommodations In Los
Angeles when the roll is called in the
worlds largest city Tin area) next July.
Actually, Mr.. Buffers grievance en-
lists certain amount of understanding
sympathy Politics costs big money, and
the Democratic problem is compounded
by the fact that the party came out of
the 1856 campaign with a $750,O0O debt.
BY assigning quota obligations to the
States, including 81 900 debt-retirement
memberships in the "750 Club" Mr..
Butler and his financial aides estimated
that the total 1957-58-59 income would
put the party $650,0O0 in the black for
next years campaign. AS Of last october
81, however, it was closer to $1.3 million
in the red.
The poorest showing, from Mr.. But
ler's viewpoint, has been on this years
quotas. Up to now, 80 States have paid
nothing in 1959-including such big ones
as New York, Illinois and Ohio, and eight
from the deep South. One of the latter
may have provided significant COM
ment when the Georgia State chairman
said his States quota will be paid in full
within one month after Mr.. Buffers
resignation. On this basis, it is possible
that Georgia's delegation to next years
national convention will be housed in
distant suburb of Los Angeles. Mr. But
Ter, who is carrying "big stick" and not
speaking softly, has given them all until
next April to think 1t over.

DELAYED Justice

On different occasions I
have had the privilege Of
hearing Justice Brennan of
the Supreme Court and VIII
liam Rogers of the Attorney
Generals Departmental ad-
dition to other Supreme
Court Justices-preach the
platitude that delay Of JUS
tice amounts to a denial of
Justice" Just recently, how
ever, the same Supreme Court
unanimously agreed to stay
the execution of Chessman
in California-for the umpth
time-and after Justice Doug
las had once asserted in a
previous high court appeal
that "Chessman has had due
process over and over again" "
Either Chessman is guilty
or he isn't. Either he should
have been turned loose IL
years ago or been executed
IL years ago. My feelings are
that certain justices and
judges are bringing on them
selves the criticism and
censure that seem rather
widespread.

THE POLITICAL MILL
COP. Convention Needs Fiqht

No one knows whether a
third candidate for the nom
ination will enter the con-
test in New Hampshire, as
Harold E. Stassen did in
l952-or what effect a third
candidacy would have.
1t is true that the Repub-
licans had only a single can
didate for President at their
national convention in San
Francisco in l956-President
Eisenhower. An incumbent
President, eligible for a sec
ond term, has almost invar-
iably been considered a nat
ural to succeed himself. The
COP. was hard put to
arouse great public interest
in that convention despite
the fact of Mr.. Eisenhower's
tremendous popularity. A
convention next year merely
to ratify the nomination of
either Mr.. Nixon or Gov.
Rockefeller might be a drab
affair.
Calm Worse Than Battle
The suggestion has been
made that a contest between
the two next year for top
honors would tear the Re-
publican Party hopelessly
apart. But a profound calm,
with only one candidate pro-
posed at the national con-
vention. could be even worse.
Since the turn of the century
candidates for Republican
presidential nominations, I'M
less they were sitting Presi-
dents, have had to fight for
the nomination against other
competitors. And many of the
victorious candidates have
been elected-notably, the
present occupant of the
White House.
All signs now point to a
ripSnorting Democratic Ma
tional Convention, with a
half dozen or more candi-
dates fighting it out for the
presidential nomination. The
Democrats and the general
public are looking forward
with the keenest interest to
the Democratic National
Convention. Perhaps the
Democrats have more to fear
from such a contest than the
Republicans. The sharp divi-
sion between the Democrats
of the North and South over
the civil rights issue hangs
over their convention. Their
problem is to nominate, if
they can, a candidate who
will be acceptable to the
North and hold the allie
glance of the Southern wing
of the party.
Gov. Rockefeller is now on
tour in the West-a political
tour so advertised. His plans
for a fight for the presiden-
tial nomination, like those of
Vice President Nixon, were
laid months ago. If he tries
and fails, he still remains
Governor of New York and
his political career would
not necessarily be at an end.

AntipoIIution Teamwork

Arlington County, in moving to send
part OF its sewage across the Potomac
River to the District sewer system, is
giving proper consideration not only to
its own welfare but to that of the whole
Washington Metropolitan Area. Ironi-
cally, Arlington could have led the way
in joining with the District in a COM
bined sewage disposal system years ago,
but declined to do so. Yet the growing
needs of the nearby Virginia counties
indicate that combined system eventu-
ally will be needed, if the river ever is
to be made reasonably clean.
ArlingtonS original invitation to
join the District system came from the
District at time when the county was
faced with the problem of providing
adequate treatment for it's sewage or in
otherwise safeguarding the Potomac
from serious contamination. However,
consultantS employed by the county
recommended the construction of pri-
mary treatment plant on the Arlington
side with secondary treatment to be
considered later. The primary plant
already is outmoded and secondary
treatment is not yet in sight.
Seeking means of relieving Ar
lington's overloaded facilities, county
officials have proposed tie-in of sewers
in the northwest part of the county with
the new line across Chain Bridge that is
to carry Central Intelligence Agency
sewage to the District plant at Blue
Plains. This line is being built by Fairfax
County, under an arrangement with CIA.
The plan would involve an $3.50, 900 bond

Health Insurance

1t. appears that your cor
respondent Anna Lized" is
numbered among those who
opposed compulsory health
insurance. She and they have
a right to their views. Per-
haps they are all rugged in
dividuals possessed of the
spirit of the old frontier
who somehow feel that all
the sick and hurt should
somehow-be able to care
for themselves, financially
and otherwise.
I am one of the vast null
titude that believes other
wise. The days of the old
wagon wheel are past. Today
we are living in a different
World-a world in which
problems, difficulties and
populations are increasing
with leaps and bounds.
Yes, Anna Lized, compul-
sorry health insurance is COM
ing as sure as fate. and along
with it socialized medicine in
all its splendor and glory, for
the mills of the gods grind
slowly but they grind ex-
ceedingly fine. Justice will
triumph in the end. The uni
versal law of compensation
will, at long last, see to that.
The American people who
have so generously, so gra-
ciously given away SIT bill
lion in foreign aid of every
kind all over the world in

apt to ignore for long the
wailing cry of the unfortu-

Over-Stretched

Thanks" to the strike just
ended for 80 days by the
courts, investors in American
industry have lost millions of
dollars. Yet, some long-range
good may come from it all.
Not too many years ago,
industry was all-powerful
and ruthless in its dealings
with labor. This was wrong.
Recognizing this, the Gov
ernment passed labor reforms
to help the working man in
his fight against. exploitation.
A need was there. the Gov
ernment acted, and labor
management relations were
set in balance.
This 100-day-plus strike Of
1859 is dramatically pointing
out that the same situation
exists today. except that the
shoe is now on the other
foot. The pendulum of ex-
ploitive power has now
swung too far in the other
direction-from big business
to big union.
AS the Government had
courage in the past. they
should now have it in the
present-courage to form an
equitable balance between
labor and management.
From my experience with
steel workers Il am a former
steel mill laborer). I have
discovered that these men
are courageous in fighting for
their rights. The pathetic
part of the suspended strike
is that they realize they are
rebels without a cause. They
are victims of their own or
ganization. Most are satisfied
with their wages and their
working conditions. Th y
wish only for more job secu-
rity. And they realize that
featherbedding and wage in
creases will serve only to take
away this security by pricing
themselves out of world busi-
ness.
Labor can hold its present
position of respect and can
continue to enjoy the high
est standard of living Of

The cat has done it, too,
