The Presidents Movinq Speech

too, unless this correspond
ent wholly misses his guess,
the President also made a
profoundly successful address
in political terms - because
it was not political at all.
The debate about 1t all will
go on and on. The winner, in
terms Of the next presiden-
tial election, may or may not
be the Republicans. But there
is one absolutely certain
winner in the minds of ordi-
nary people. This winner is
a man named Eisenhower
and this winner is the
United States of America.
For whatever else may be in
doubt, one thing surely can
not be in doubt. We have
made mistakes as a Nation
and we went too soon and
too unprepared to the sum-
NIT, but in the last end we
are. in the human sense at
least, in a much stronger
position than We were be-
fore the President spoke.

Defense of His Actions and Readiness
To Deal With Soviet Held Acceptable

In his temperate report on
the summit, President Eisen-
hover defended adminiStra-
ton actions but declined to
close the door on future nego-
tiations with Russia. Within
that framework. his critics
can operate without resent
ment.
They will take issue with
his view that little blame can
be attached to the United
States course in the Paris
proceedings and the crucial
weeks beforehand. They are
not now obliged to debate
with him the proposition that
to continue the search for
peace, with the door held
open for Russia, amounts to
being soft on communism" "
Republicans have believed
that Mr.. Eisenhower had
built-in political antennae to
the American people, and for
that reason many followed
him places they did not really
wish to go. Since he cannot
directly help them by being
again a candidate for Presi-
dent, they have now to de-
eide whether those same an
tennae are still in prime
working condition.
For what he has, in effect,
done is to tell them that
peace is still the best issue,
and he has offered the view,

at a moment of high personal
trial for himself. that retreat
to the isolated bitterness Of
cold war is untenable.
This did not appear to be
the early position of Vice
President Richard Nixon and
other Republicans, including
Senate Leader Everett Dirk

to the attack on critical
Democrats. The President
did not take their line.
While his own party decides
whether or not to accept the

ment on it's best future
course, a group is trying to

gage us in discussions on the
reuniflcation of Germany, on
holding some kind of plebi-
scites there, in discussions on
questions which are not sub
ject to discussion by states
represented at the summit
conference. -.
IF, despite all our efforts,
the Western powers refuse to
seek jointly with the Soviet
Union a concerted solution
of the problem of the peace
treaty, and against common
sense will ignore this ques-
ton. we, Of course. will go
our own way and sign a peace
treaty with the German
Democratic Republic.
1T is common knowledge
that the signing of a peace
treaty puts an end to all
terms stemming from the
surrender of a country.
Therefore. when a peace
treaty is signed with the Ger
man Democratic Republic,
the terms stemming from the
surrender will lose their force
on the entire territory con-
trolled by the government of
that state. Consequently, the
rights which the Western
powers obtained as a result
of the surrender of Hitler
Germany. including the right
for the further preservation
Of the occupation status in
West Berlin, will also lose
their force with regard to this
territory"
But if Mr.. Khrushchev was
intent on torpedoing the
summit conference because
Of the Stalemate on the Ber-
lin problem, why did he in
dulge in such insults against
President Eisenhower? The
answer is he wanted to make
a personality issue of it and
lay the foundations for the
withdrawal of the invitation
to the American President to
visit the Soviet Union.
The other day, a former
Soviet intelligence agent who
detected in Southeast Asia
where he was working as
a Soviet "diplomat"-was
asked on the TV panel Meet
the Press why the Soviet
government doesn't want
President Eisenhower to visit
there. He said:
The Soviet Communist re-
gime is in no way interested
in allowing so popular a man
as the American President to
come to the Soviet Union
They are definitely
afraid Of the impact such a
visit can make on the Soviet
people"

Report on Paris Held Eisenhower's Best,
Strengthening Nation in Human Sense
WILLIAM S. WHITE

In a neighboring beer bar
in suburban Maryland 20
men were present and two
men listened-at first. Later
on, 16 of the 20 we're listen
ing.
This correspondent had
picked this place to hear
President Eisenhower report
to the country on the broken
summit conference and on
what he proposed now to do.
Here was a place where one
might gain some small i'm
preston of what one very
small section of "the public"
thought of the President.
1t is not, of course, clear
and never can be clear in
advance as to how our rela-
tionship with the Soviet
Union and with the world
will now develop. One thing
that is all too clear, however,
is that the President has
been deeply saddened by
the failure of a conference
toward which, in the twilight
of his public life, he had
looked so hopefully to crown
his administration with a gift
Of peace to the people of this
Nation and of others.
Many men will argue about
what the President said
about the degree of candor
and the degree of leadership
he showed. But the view of
one man-and of one man
who has not been enthusiast
tic about Mr.. Eisenhower
is that this was the best
speech he ever made. Here
was a tired and elderly man
saying, as it seemed to me,
all that could be properly
said of the past. and offering
all that could be honestly
promised for the future.
The people scattered about
the beer bar were first re-
Sentful that the juke box had
been turned off in order to
permit the President to ap-
pear on the TV screen in the
back of the room. They were
at no point wildly elated that
this change had been made.
But as the speech went on
they began to turn, one by
one, to the image that now
filled the room. At the very
end, when the national an
them was played, they shuf-
fled their feet a bit. And
then, here and there, a man
got up and stood raggedly

per hour, is being urged by
the Air Force as more eco
nomical than missiles, which
can be fired but once and
can't be brought back. They
argue, of course, for a COM
bination. 1t is almost certain
that Mr.. Khrushchev's burst
of booriSh fury will re-estab-
lish the BIO.
In many ways, in the days
ahead. the Big Four breakup
at Paris will consume more
and more tax dollars in the
field of defense.
1t reaches, too, into the
field of politics.
The Republicans are quite
aware that the dismaying
evidence of lack of co-ordina-
tion within the administra-
tion. and the incredible con-
tradictionS which have seri-
ously impaired the Nations
credibility, we're also a severe
political blow. Peace has been
the COPS major argu-
ment.
The Nation is, of course,
united behind whatever ad-
ministration leads it in time
of stress. But there was a
very real effort being made
to convert the display of
loyalty into a seeming VIC
tory celebration for the Pres
ident, who, while he behaved
with dignity, won no victory.
Mr.. KhruShchev's responsible
ity is paramount, but it was
the administrative bumbling,
compounded twice over,
which gave him the weapon
with which to wrFk the talks

at Paris. In the Senate and
House, various Republicans
arose to suggest that in these
days of peril there be no
criticism but that one and
all join in a united front Of
loyal support.
The loyal support exists.
The Democratic opposition is
fully loyal. But it is right to
ask the central questions of
why the U-2 flight was
ordered just before the sum-
NIT date. and why there were
false statements made and a
reversal of others.
These are legitimate ques-
tions. The Nation has been
gravely hurt, and it would
be the worst folly not to ex-
anime into such an obvious
looseness of administration
and lack of department CO.
ordination.
A Senate subcommittee has
decided to investigate the
U-2 story to see how it re-
lates to the Governments
policy-making machinery.
This. too, is a legitimate in
quiry.
1t is an act of political
survival for the Republican
political strategists to try
and divert attention from the
questions which cry for an
SWer.
But national health re-
quireS that we understand
the whole unpleasant pros
pect which the President says,
out of his own bitter dis
appointment, is one which
will be filled with irritations.
1t is not a time for self-pity
or self-deluSion.
The Paris failure will COM
plicate our lives for a long
time to come. =

and in an embarrassed way
at attention.
No doubt it did not prove
very much. 1t did not estab-
blish that the Presidents
policies had been the right
policies. 1t certainly did not
suggest to a watcher that this
was a knot of Eisenhower
worshippers. 1t did seem to
this watcher, however, that
this man on the Screen-how-
ever wrong he may have
been in some aspects Of his
world leadership-had car
ried this small and unimpor-
tant room along with what
he was trying to say.
In some strange way it
seemed that what he was
saying had put this country
back on the track and that
from here on it might be very
difficult for those who now
wish to destroy him over
this issue of the summit. 1t
was not that the people in
this shabby little tavern
either fully understood or
fully approved the words of
the President.
Rather, it was a case in
which, uncaring and unin-
terested as they first had
been, they began to recognize
that we are after all not Ell
ther Republicans or Demo-
Gratis when crisis is upon us.
We are then only Americans,
perhaps fearful, certainly
hesitant. and perhaps con-
fused, but still Americans
whose only real party is the
United States.
Beyond question, the Pres
ident did not appear for
political purposes. Beyond
question, he gave a sum-
mary not of a winning policy
but rather of a thus far los
ing one. But beyond question,
Evening star., 1960-05-27

for him is that he can clarity
the Democratic position bet
ter than anyone else and
secure the largest audience.
Obviously, it would not do to
choose one of the three Sena-
tors who are openly in the
race. and Chairman j. w.
Fulbright of the Senate. For
eign Relations Committee has
declined to consider it be-
cause he is conducting a
summit inquiry approved by
members of both parties.
Mr.. Stevenson has said Of
the Eisenhower report that
the sum NIT would have
served a good purpose if it
had banished the notion that
IAN easy silence" was nee
eSsary to the conduct of
foreign policy. He praised the
President for his willingness
to continue negotiations with
Russia and expressed doubt
that Americas allies admired
its summit actions unreserv-
edly.
No one person during these
preconvention weeks can,
of course, set his party's
line for the election cam
paign itself, not even the
President. Those who speak
up are taking certain risks
and exposing themselves to
future recriminations; the
wrong gueSsers may even be
eliminated in July. But the
debate is on and is most un-
likely to die down in any
perceptible degree before
November.

While Nikita Khrushchev
spoke in East Berlin Of an
other summit meeting eight
months from now and a
weary President talked on
arrival here of the lost hopes
and the mystery OF Mr..
Khrushchev's frenzied with
drawal, the summit failure
began to reach into the
Treasury.
A House Appropriations
Committee approved an extra
$73 million for development
of a nuclear aircraft. They
did this even though a sub
committee recently heard
voluminous testimony and
decided such a craft would
be obsolete before it could be
constructed. 1t now is dis
cussed as a Semipermanent
airborne missile base. Before
the science and astronautics
subcommittee, testimony was
heard concerning reactivat-
ing the Air Forces great
dream, the BIO supersonic
bomber. 1t is a program
which will cost some $3.50
million to continue it. The
administration recently held
it up for a years review.
The BIO is a fantastic
development. New design
secrets have given it great
efficiency in use .of fuel so
that it can fly around the

tional jet fuel. Its speed is

Speech on April IS Called Significant
With ScuttIing of PorIey at Paris

just reeks of the cold war
spirit. Dillon'S statement is
more like a collection of trite
inventions about the Soviet
Union and the Socialist coun-
tries than a responsible policy
declaration.
Dillon tried to strike a
note of i'll will and suspicion
on the very eve Of the sum-
nit conference when it is
so essential that an atmos-
phere of international con-
fidence should be created and
maintained.
Dillon referred to the
summit as a test of the good
faith of the intentions of
the Soviet Union, pretending
that the outcome of the con-
ference depends on the Soviet
Union alone, rather than on
all Of its participants.
ITO Judge from the state
ment by Mr.. Dillon, who is,
clearly, no outsider in the
government quarters of the
United States, it comes out
that the United States Gov
ernment will not be willing
to reach an agreement on
disarmament and on the ways
of improving East-WeSt rela-
tionS unless its view on the
Berlin question is accepted.
Why, then, did Dillon
have to make a statement
so obviously out Of tune with
the tenor of relations between
the USSR and the United
States since my conversations
with President Eisenhower at
Camp David?
II would not have touched
on the statement by the
United States Undersecretary
of State if not for some
other things which, un-
fortunately, find expression
not only in word but also in
deed. that put one on the
lookout"
The Soviet Premier then
made a vehement attack on
the disarmament negotia-
tions and accused the West
of refusing really to reach an
agreement. He added:
Consider a speech made
by Mr.. Herter, the man who
heads the United States De-
partment Of State and con-
sequently shapes the foreign
policy Of his country. The
speech which he made in
Chicago on April 4 can only
be regretted.
Mr.. Herter wants to en-

not May l, when the U-2 was
downed in the Soviet Union.
In view of what has hap
pened since, extraordinary
significance attaches to the
speech delivered by Nikita
KhruShchev at Baku on April
25, which was reported in a
fragmentary way in the
American press.
An examination of the
Baku speech shows clearly
that the Soviet government
had come to the conclusion
that it would get nowhere
at the summit conference.
Overnight. all the govern
ment controlled radio sta
tions and newspapers in the
Soviet Union began to pre-
pare the people for a summit
failure and f1atly blamed the
West.
The same bitter tone
which Mr.. Khrushchev used
in Paris is to be noted in
what he said at Baku in a
violent attack on Secretary
Herter and Undersecretary
Dillon.
On that same day, the
Soviet Premier intimated
that he planned to use mill
tary power to enforce his
prospective seizure of West
Berlin. He said in part:
IF the Western powers re-
fuse to sign a peace treaty
with the German Democratic
Republic, they will not retain
the rights on the preserva-
ton of which they are in
Sisting. They naturally will
forfeit the right of access to
West Berlin by land, water
and air"
In another portion of his
speech, the Soviet Premier
practically admitted that he
had no hope of reaching any
agreement at the summit con-
ference. He said:

AMELIA, Dec. 81 Efficient
farmers recognize that all crops re-

H. A. Holmes. county agent in

Figures often quoted are that
100 bushels Of corn remove l40
pounds Of nitrogen. 4S pounds OF
phosphoric acid and 1856 pounds Of
potash. In comparison. a 25-busheI
wheat crop and straw would re
move approximately a. pounds Of
nitrogen. 10 pounds of phosphoric
acid and 30 pounds Of potash he
said.
Plant nutrients must be avail

for the crop to produce SATISFACTORY

ready available in the soil or must
be supplied to the soil. Manure

practices. such as seeded prepa-
ration. time of seeding, adapted
variety. insect control. and cult
vation. can greatly affect yields.
One Of the most important prac-
tees Is the use Of adequate amounts
Of fertilizer.
"Agronomists and farm manage

involved in growing and harvest

that fertilizer was the dominant

cost of each bushel was around

tons, but with less fertilizer and a

There was very little difference
in man and machine hours be-

cost of fertilizer was higher fol-
