praise than anything else in
his career.
In the one case, Richard
Nixon seemed to be taking it
on the chin for all Americans.
In the other, witnesses agree,
! he did well.
1 He showed courage and con-
troll in May, 1853 when a Ven
zuelan mob turned a routine
/ goodwill tour into a nightmare.
They attacked the Nixon cars
with clubs. pipes. stones and
spit. At one point, the bowling
mob even tried to overturn the
Vice Presidents car.
| He showed skill and poise in
I the summer of 1859 in Moscow
when Nikita Khrushchev sud-
denly opened a fantastic run
ming debate.
Debate Heard Around World
! The scene was the United
States National Exposition in
Sokolniki Park, and the whole
thing was on television.
Mr.. Khrushchev: I'VE are
telling you not to be afraid of
ideas. We have no reason to be
afraid"
/ Mr.. Nixon: well, let's have
more exchange of them, then"
Mr.. Khrushchev: You Am
ericans think that the Russian
people will be astonished to see
these things. The fact is tnat
all our new houses have this
kind of equipment"
| Mr.. Nixon: 1--WE do not claim
/ to astonish the Russian peo-
Pile. We hope to show our di-
versity and our right to choose.
We do not want to have deci-
sions made at the top by one
government official that all
houses should be built the same
way"
Mr.. Khrushchev mentioned
washing machines, and Mr..
Nixon said: Isn't it far bet
ter to be talking about wash
ing machines than machines
of war, like rockets? Isn't this
the kind of competition we
want?"
Mr.. Khrushchev: Yes, this
is the kind of competition we
want. But your generals say
they are so powerful they can
destroy us. We can also show
you something so that you will
know the Russian spirit"
/ Mr.. Nixon: You are strong
and we are strong We are
both so strong. not only in
weapons but also in will and
spirit, that neither should ever
put the other in a position
where he faces. in effect, an
ultimatum."
1t was a debate heard
around the world.
Richard Milhous Nixon had
come a long way from Whittier,

But it is still a long way to

CHICAGO, July 3O.-Many

ing Republican convention ir
years found scant time fol
sightseeing, but Tony Paviola
shoe shine specialist, wondered
today why so few made SEN
timental journey to his corner
1t was a matter of history

The graying Tony feels nc
grudge against Leon Thomp-
son. the 10-year-old lad who
happened along at the appro-
pirate moment earlier this
week to polish the shoes of
Vice President Nixon in a hotel
corridor.
Tony knows Mr.. Nixon had
too much on his mind to
trudge a score of blocks to the
shoe repair and shine shop
near Lake street and Wacker
drive. Yet, such a visit by
party leaders or delegates

the Importance of coming up
with some new farm proposals
to bolster his chances of win

He said the Republicans have
"a fighting chance" to win
control of the House but to do
so I'VE must make great gains. -
In the farm areas where I'VE
have suffered great erosion, "
the farm program, he added,

bers can run on"
Mr.. Nixon said the rival
ticket of Senators Kennedy of
Massachusetts, and johnson of

vantage because there are more
registered Democrats than Re-
publicans.

Getting the jump on his
Democratic rival, Mr.. Nixon
said he will take off Tuesday
morning from Washington with
the first stop at Reno, New, for
a welcoming ceremony at the
airport for Mrs. Nixon. She was
born in that State.
After a similar demonstra-
ton for the Vice President at
the Los Angeles airport and in
his nearby home town of Whit
tier, the nominee and his party
will take of Wednesday morn
ing for two days of campaign
ing in Hawaii. He will return
by the way of Seattle for a rally
there Friday afternoon before
returning that night to Wash

Senator Kennedy has sched-

late in August.
Mr.. Nixon plans to spend
Monday in Washington con-
ferring with Henry Cabot
Lodge, jr.. his running mate,
and their stats on campaign
plans and strategies.

Mr.. Lodge told a news con-
ference yesterday he will not
begin campaigning until he
completes his part in disarma- =
ment discussions in the United
Nations in August.
He will then resign his posi-
ton as United States Ambassa-
dor to the United Nations and
begin vigorous campaign en-
phasizing international issues.
The question, Mr.. Lodge said,
is not foreign policy itself, but
the ability of the candidates
to execute and carry out foreign
policy"
He said he will travel widely
in the campaign. His son, AS
sistant Secretary of Lab Dor
George Lodge, has begun or
ganizing the vice presidential

has served on the National

Mr.. Nixon said that, as a

ton Congress should deal with
when it returns August 8. He
said he wants it to be a pro-
ductive session, and any sug-

Put Up To President
He said the President should
determine what Congress is
to consider, and he believes
Mr.. Eisenhower has some very
definite views of what he wants
to submit.
Most observers here believe,
however, the Democratic lead
ers, with large majorities in
both houses, will actually de-
eide what bills will be passed
When asked later, however,
if he thought the Democrats
have an obligation to try to
carry out some of their plat
form pledges. Mr.. Nixon said
the country will expect them
to carry out some, but not
all. of their promises.
Mr.. Nixon said, that in sug-
gesting Thursday night that
the nation may face sacrifices
in the years ahead he meant
that I'VE must not be inhibited
by any considerations other
than national security in deter
mining what Government must

But he added that he does
not see at this time programs
which would make it neces-
sary to raise taxes.

And in 1858, many observers
thought they saw a new level
of craftsmanship in Mr.. Nixor
when he told a London audi
ence that the Western world
should speak less Of the threat
of communism and more Of
the promise of freedom"
Defended as Improved
All these factors help high
light the widely discussed pic
ture Of the new Nixon
phrase, incidentally. which the
Vice Presidents friends don't
take kindly to.
"Of course, he's changed,
said his press secretary, Herb
Klein, during the Republican
convention this week. But to
speak Of a new Nixon seems
to imply he went out to get
a new personality like a new
suit"
He didn't. But he has
changed since I first met him
in 1916. He has grown with
experience. maturity and con-
f1dence."

prove academic, anyway. Most
people see what they want tc

that if they wish he will make

ordinator of all non-military

In his acceptance speech
Thursday night, Mr.. Nixon
spoke of the need for reorganiz-
ing these non-military aspects
of the world struggle between
communism and freedom.
These activities include tech
nical assistance to underde-
veloped areas, loans and grants
for economic development of
friendly countries, the ex-
change persons and the spread
of information about the aims
of the free world.
Includes Directing
Mr.. Nixon told a press con-
ference yesterday that as Pres
ident. it would be his purpose
to accomplish this reorganiza-
ton by delegating to the Vice
President the Craftsmanship of
a group which would undertake
not only coordination but also
direction of these activities"
In consultation with the
Presi Dent" he continued, "the
Vice FresiEent would have the
respt rsibiiity. not just to CO.
ordir ate, but to direct these
activities which are now in a
variety Of agencies-and direct
them in a way as to take the
initiative in key areas of the
world.
AT the present time we don't
always do this. Sometimes there
is more of a tendency, because
of the way they have grown
up, for these agencies simply
to react to what the Commu-
nists may do"
Mr.. Nixon said he knows of
no man who could carry out
this function better than Mr..
Lodge. He said that was one
consideration in selecting the
U. N. Ambassador as his run
ming mate.
Praises Ability
During the time that have

he has shown more imagina-

derstanding of the non-military
aspects of the world struggle
than any man in the govern

not only great credit to him
