patient over the administra-
tons failure to submit its re-
port on the bill to extend the
Governments security program
to non-sensitive jobs. the House
Civil Service Committee plans
to wind up its hearings on the
legislation next week with or

mony. The administration will

with some feeling that national
security is not jeopardized as
the result Of the Supreme
Courts decision Of several years
ago that the security program
does not apply to non-sensitive
positions. Federal employee lead
ers feel the same way about it.
But Chairman Murray of the
House group feels strongly that
a new law is needed to cover

II E ALT TIL SPEEDUP
SOUGHT - Federal employee
leaders are trying to get the
House Civil Service Committee
to hold hearings soon on health
insurance legislation for Gov
eminent employees and their
families. They feel that time
is of the essence if a health
insurance bill is to be enacted
this year.
A Senate Civil Service sub
committee has completed hear
ings on the legislation and is
now drafting a bill for recon-
mendation to the full commit
tee. But it will probably be at
least mid-June or July at the
earliest before the Senate would
act on the bill, leaving little
time before he expected adj
journment of Congress some
time in August.
That's why employee leaders
would like to have the House
group start action now, without
waiting for final Senate approx
al in order that both branches
of Congress could act on the
legislation and then settle the
differences in conference before
adjournment. They fear that
if the House committee takes no
action until the Senate approves
a bill, it may be too late for
final enactment this year.

secondarily to Warsaw. At the
moment, the most that can be
said for this hope is that 1t is
not impossible Of attainment.
That ION the Beach" might
be shown in Moscow would re-
quire an expansion of the cul-
tural relations agreement on
exchange of films between this
country and Russia is one Of
the hard facts that must be
faced. In its existing form. this
is a rigid agreement worked
out over long months of tough
negotiations and applying to
specific films of the two coun-
tries. No provision for its easy
alteration is to be found in the
agreement as its stands. That
it could not be done, however,
is a topic that is officially being
SlQeSIeppeQ.
Producer Kramer has hopes.
+ -
An element of the sub
surface excitement involving
the picture in Washington is
the program distributed to
high-ranking guests who have
attended its screenings.
This, a brief statement of
Kramer's dream for "On the
Beach," is printed in 10 Ian
guageS, among them Russian,
japanese and Afrikans. The
other seven, rather more con-
ventional. are English, French,
German. Spanish, Italian.
Dutch. and Swedish.
In these multiple languages
Kramer explains:
THE film ON the Beach was
intended from the beginning to
lpre miere simultaneously in
cities of six continents on the
night Of December II, 1859.
Warm reaction from the press
and critical fraternity to the
film would be pleaSureable. APP
proval of scientists and educa-
tors and intellectual groups
most welcome, the support Of
political and military figures Of
prime necessity. But the dream
Of the production of On the
Beach was to create film for
people-people all over the
world in the power of their
mass.
There are differences and
fears and distrust in this world
and always the sober reminder
for realistic thinking. We have
tried to be aware of this to
transcend it by a concept Of
hope on celluloid-namely, to
reach out to the hearts of peo-
pie everywhere that they might
feel compassion-for them
selves"

automatically speaking, the
only notable regrets" have
come from the MPA's neigh
borly neighbor, the Russian
Embassy. Ambassador Men,
shikov and his staff, of course
have been busy with the
Khrushchev visit.
This situation has left the
excited groups which already
have seen ION The Beach" to
dream of the ultra ideal
screening: This a showing of
the world's-end movie as a So
cial aside by President Eisen-
hover to his most dramatic
guest.
There is nothing to indicate
that this will happen. The
schedule of the two heads of
state is already overcrowded,
but the right to dream is not
thereby abrogated so far as
Kramer and those who have
seen the picture are concerned.
y
ION The Beach" whose
theme is the aftermath of the
use of the ultimately deadly
weapon, is beyond a doubt the
most-talked-of picture ever
previewed in Washington.
The explanation for this is
the obvious one that it deals
with the darkest of mans
fears as it comedies with a
meeting Of the two men who
represent the best Of the des-
perate hopes for understand
ing.
1t will be long time. to be
sure, before the public gets its
chance to see "On The Beach. |"
Its premiere is planned really
to be world" in size, as all
movies are said to be and none
really ever are. This lies in the
fact that on December II. the
Kramer film will open in 10
cities, a majority Of them ma
tional capitals, on six CONT
nentS.
The cities of the simultan-
eous opening are Washington,
New York, Chicago. Los An
