Watchdog Required

1t is evident from the lack Of en-
thusiasm at the Pentagon over proposals
for consolidating procurement and sup
ply services that something more than
authority to eliminate duplication and
other waste is necessary to get results.
Recent hearings before Joint Economic
Committee subcommittee revealed that
progress has been very slow in carrying
out recommendations of Congress and of
the Hoover Commission. There is a good
deal of merit, therefore, in the sugges-
ton that the joint subcommittee on
defense procurement be made watch

services If they continue to lag in logis-
tical teamwork.
Retired General Robert E. Wood,
board chairman Of Sears, Roebuck and
Company, was one Of several Hoover
task force" members who testified at
the hearings in favor of the standby
plan. Several subcommittee members
have expressed interest in the idea. Here
is an opportunity for Congress to fol-
low through on an economy program
that promises substantial defense saw
ings without any reduction of military
strength.

Closer to the Brink

France now has taken It's place
beside Britain, Russia and the United
States as the fourth member of the
worlds grimly exclusive nuclear club.
UNDERSTANDABLE enough, President
Charles de Gaulle and his countrymen
feel proud and elated, and they can
hardly be blamed for that. For the
event signifies to them, and rightly so,
the attainment of highly important
new degree of national prestige and
power.
OF course, despite the success of
their first atomic test in the Sahara,
the French will require some years of
extensive experimentation and heavy
productive effort to build up a major
nuclear arsenal and develop a formi-
dable nuclear punch. Meanwhile, how
ever, they will be in very strong bar
gaining position viS-a-vis the Russians,
the British and ourselves in any nego-
tiations bearing upon efforts to estab-
liSh testing ban and work out agree
mentS for controlling or outlawing A
and H weapons.
Indeed, the Sahara explosion has
already injected great new complicat-
ing factor in the deadlocked Anglo
American-Soviet talks in Geneva. As
Suming that the deadlock can be broken,
assuming that the Russians will recon-
slider their rejection of our proposal for
a limited interim agreement, how will
the French react? Thus far they have
held themselves completely aloof from
the talks. But If Britain, the United
States and the USSR somehow manage
to work out an accord prohibiting all
nuclear detonations except small under
ground shots that cannot now be de-
tected, will the De Gaulle government
consent to join in such treaty?
OF course, since the possibility Of
an OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES agreement
on this issue seems extremely remote at
the moment, it may be academic at
present to ask questions about Frances
intentions. Nevertheless the questions
are to the point, and they are likely to
become very large and portentous be-
tween now and the summit meeting in
May, when General de Gaulle sits down
in Paris with Prime Minister Macmil-
ian, PreSloenC EISENHOWER and Premier
KhruShchev for a discussion of great
and grave issues involving Berlin, Ger
many and disarmament.
Moreover, Frances achievement in
the Sahara serves as a SOLDERING re-
minder that several other countries in
the world are similarly capable of at
tanning membership in the nuclear club.
Which one will be the next to knock on
the door for admission? Will it be a
small nation like Sweden? Or will it be
gigantic Red China? Clearly, there is
a desperate need for firm and trust
worthy control agreement among the
great powers before the arms race, grow
Ing In intensity and in number of COM
petitors, leads mankind willy-nilly to
the brink of catastrophe.

heavily populated industrial States.
Some unions have implemented their
interest in politics by making generous
financial contributions and by develop
ing effective techniques for getting out
the vote. And while this effort may
have greater impact on local contests,
including congressional, than on the
presidential race, 1t could still be a
determining factor in swinging the
electoral vote of closely divided State.
On this basis, there is no doubt that
both tickets and both party platforms
will bid for labors good will between
now and November.

Travelling Salesman

Nikita KhruShchev'S speech to the
Indian Parliament can be approached
in any one of several ways.
1t is possible to ignore the speech,
and to read, instead, the news reports
which tell us that the crowds on the
Khrushchev route to New Delhi were
smaller and less enthusiastic than those
which greeted President Eisenhower.
II this approach is taken, however, it
should at least be remembered that Mr..
KhruShchev had been there before, and
that his visit this time was on work.
ing day while Mr.. EiSenhower'S was on
a Sunday. Even so, it is true that the
reception accorded the American PreSi-
dent was warmer than that for the
Soviet leader.
Another approach is to focus on the
relatively mild Saber-rattling aspects of
the speech, on the claim that the Soviet
Union is militarily the most powerful
nation in the world. If this approach
is taken, it would be well not to forget
that our own military people have been
saying essentially the same thing about
the power of the United States.
The best approach to the speech
would be to read it. Unfortunately, not
many Americans will be able or willing
to do this. But those who do read it
surely will come away with the impress
sion that Mr.. KhruShchev is one of the
better travelling statesmen of this gen.
Grafton. And what he was trying to sell
to the Indian Parliament, and to many
millions of people around the world, was
an idealistic picture of the Soviet Union
"a picture Of powerful nation which
Is interested, not in armed conquest but
in extending an unSelf1sh helping hand
to lesser nations which are seeking eco
nomic and political maturity.
1t would be easy to dismiss this as
propaganda, as more Of the same old
eyewash. And perhaps it is. But we
should not underestimate the potency
Of its appeal in Asia and Africa, where
many nations are waiting to see which
way the ball is going to bounce Nor
should we blind ourselves to the pos
Sibility that Mr.. KhruShchev, In this
address, was unveiling, not his mill
tary weapons, but the weapons which
he proposes to use in what might be
called the battle of peaceful coexistence.
Whether this is so, whether 1t is true,
as Mr.. Khrushchev says, that real war
invites only mutual disaster and that
peaceful coexistence of states has be-
come a vital necessity" we obviously
are up against formidable competitor
in either arena.

Death of q Hero

Cardinal Stepinac was brave man
Of heroic religious stature. When he was
placed on trial in YugoSlav Commu-
mist court in 1946-two years prior to
Marshal Tito'S break with Stalin-he
emphatically denied all the charges
against him, and he accused his prose-
cutorS, in an impaSsioned speech, Of
striking against him only because Of his
position as the spiritual leader Of Yugo-
Slavia'S seven million Roman Catholics.
To the extent that he and his numerous
supporting witnesses were allowed to
testify openly and freely, the trials
proceedings seemed to have semblance
OF fairness, but in the end the outside
world was shocked by the sentence i'm
posed on hinl-a 16-year prison term.
Indeed, the Communist regime It
self appears to have been somewhat
embarrassed by this sentence At any
rate, the cardinal Che then held the rank
OF archbishop was given relatively
comfortable quarters in his prisonhouSe,
and in late 1851 he was set free, on a
conditional basis, to return to his native
village Of Krasic, where death now has
taken him. The news Of his passing, of
course, brings back bitter memories, but
it is interestingly not significant-that
Marshal Tito's government has Just be-
slowed honors on another high-ranking
Roman Catholic churchman at a time
when there is talk over there about
resuming diplomatic relations with the
Vatican-relations that were severed in
1852 when the Pope elevated Alojzijc
Stepinac to the cardinalate.

Teen-oge Insurance

One Of the most unfair
practices concerning teen
ayers in recent years has
been the tremendously high
automobile insurance rates
for unmarried males under
the age of 25.
Insurance companies point
out that their reason for set
ting the high rates is that
the young men falling into
this category are usually hot
shot Speedsters, but a fact
that they neglect to bring to
the fore is that many teen
ayers in this group belong to
sanctioned automotive clubs
which discourage speeding
and encourage safe driving
and courtesy on the highways.
The insurance companies
should be made to realize that
many teenagers are safe
drivers and rebates should
be given to teenagers after
they have shown by a good
record their interest in safe
driving. Nicholas D. Brown

Lobor's Political Bid

President Meany of the AFL-CIO
probably will see fulfilled his expressed
hope that the big labor organization
will indorSe a presidential ticket after
the nominating conventions this year.
1t has, in fact, become organized labors
usual practice to do this-after breaking
many years ago with an earlier ira
dition OF political neutrality. It is COM
parably certain, too, that the indorse-
ment will be bestowed upon the DEM
ocratic ticket-although Mr.. Meany
leaves line of retreat open in case
the two parties end up with what he
calls a "tweedledum- -tweedledee" set of
choices uniformly unsatisfactory to the
labor leaders.
For the record, of course, it has
been we'll demonstrated that the bless
Ing OF the union chiefs does not auto
matically deliver all of labor's vote or,
more precisely, even all that is repre-

Opera Additions

From your article of
February 8 in which your
very distinguished music
critic; Day Thorpe, was
quoted as expressing his dis
satisfaction with the recent
regional Metropolitan Opera
additions, it would appear
that perhaps the Metropoli-
tan Opera Company might
revise its judging procedures.
And, in fact, the judges
themselves might read their
letters of invitations and in
structions more carefully!
The National Federation of
Music Clubs is the largest
nonprofit musical organiza-
ton. For. many years they
have been conducting contests
and additions for students of
all levels of advancement
from the youngest student to
the mature student or the
young artist ready for the
concert stage.
Their many years of ex-
perience have proved that
three judges are the desirable
maximum; and, that each
judge should indicate his rat
ing Observation-Disclosures a
Jury conference" where the
personality Of one judge
might tend to dominate. In
fact, absolutely no commu-
nication between judges is
permitted at any time during
any addition or contest spon-
sored by the National Fedora
ton of Music Clubs.
During the past year we
have read enough of "payola"
and contest rigging" Let
those Of us in the field of
fine arts support Mr.. Thorpe
and his colleague in the
Washington Post, Paul Hume,
in their exposure of this
rather questionable" conduct
of the Metropolitan Opera
additions.

President, District of Colum-
bia Federation of Music
Clubs; Member, Board Of
Directors of the National
Federation of Music Clubs.
In the entertaining scandal
that has followed the re-
gional Metropolitan Opera
additions that took place
here last week end, we seem
to have lost sight Of the fact
Evening star., 1960-02-14

that some talented singer
whoever it is that the dis
Senting majority Of judges
would have chosen-has lost
a chance for an operate ca
reer. Why not let the judges
make their selection, and
give their choice an oppor-
tunity to make a debut next
season with the Opera Soci-
ETY. Of Washington? During
the past four years, the
Opera Society has become
an indispensable part Of our
civic life. 1t is now in a posi-
ton to draw more heavily
from the good singers in this
area than it has been in the
past, and the flaSco of the
Metropolitan additions could
easily be converted from
somebody's private tragedy
into a brilliant public sue
cess.

Exercised Over Gym

Some time ago a letter
from some students at st.
Johns School for Boys Mill
tary road and Twenty
seventh street N.WO, pro-
tested the delay in erection
Of the school gymnasium,
caused by the blocking tactics
Of three families in the
vicinity, and asking why
anyone should want to de-
prive boys of healthy sports
activities.
This situation now has
been fully explored by the
home-oWnerS in the imme-
diate vicinity Of the school
and by the zoning Board. A
simple answer to the boys
question is that those in
charge of building the school
have not played fair, have
not been good neighbors, and
have deviated drastically
from the plan originally ap-
proved by the Zoning Board.
This is a nice, quiet, grade
"a" residential area, of rela-
lively new and moderately
expensive homes, which were
here before the school was
built. We homeowners pay
taxes, the school does not.
No one objected to the school
coming into this area be-
cause the tract of land was
large and bordered on two
sides by Rock Creek Park.
Furthermore, a Christian or
ganization was building the
school and could be counted
on, we thought, to be con-
siderate and fair.
The original plan provided
for the more noisy and OBJ
jectionable (from a residen-
tial point Of view features
of the school to be on the
park side, away from the
nearby homes. Imagine the
shock and CONSERVATION of
these homeowners when just
the reverse developed! Things
having gone much too far in
the wrong direction already,
these families, now many
more than three. are deter
mined to have some say as
to the location Of the gym
and stadium.
So, boys of St. Johns, no
one wants to prevent you
from having a gym. We just
want your school authorities
to practice the Golden Rule
and good neighborliness.

100 Years AGO

Even a century ago efforts
were being made to secure
for the District some type of
representation in Congress.
The Star. on February 18,
1860. reported: I'm the House
on Thursday, Mr.. Niblack Of
Indiana offered a resolution
instructing the Committee
on the District Of Columbia
to inquire into the expediency
Of providing for the election
OF a delegate to represent the
District in Congress, with
powers and duties similar to
those Of a delegate from one
Of the organized Territories.
The subject was referred to

trict of Columbia"

Nation 100 years ago. On
February IA, 1860, The Star
reported: THE kingdom of
Wurtemberg seems just now
to be extensively engaged in
emptying upon our shores it's
prison aristocrats; and the
matter will probably lead to
serious remonstrances by our
State Department. Some 18
months ago a notorious thief,
a shoemaker named Carl
Scheffel, son Of a police Of
ficer of Knittingen, Wurtem-
berg. who has been a prisoner
in Ludwigsburg for aggra-
waited grand larceny, came to
this country. He figured
extensively in the West as
Count Paul, son of a noble
family of Stuttgard, con-
nected with Baron Hagel and
the Secretary Of War, and
repeatedly fled his country by
reason of a duel. AS we see
from Western papers, he was
recently convicted of horse
stealing in st. Louis.
Verify, foreign counts are at
a discount. How do they get
here?"

death of a prominent man
on February 16, 1860, said:

Atomic Decisions

There was a great burst Of
pleasure all through the Ma
ton concerning our Presi-
dents good will trip that
ended just before Christmas.
But Christmas gone with
its thoughts Of brotherhood
and friendship among ma
tions, there came on Decem-
ber 20 the Presidents brief
statement that the voluntary
moratorium on nuclear test
ing would expire on December
81. The only reason given was
that the politically guided
Soviet experts" were being
difficult at the Geneva talks
on cessation of nuclear test
ing, now possibly facing
termination. And more re-
Gently the President Sug-
gested that the complete
atomic weapon might be
turned over to qualified allies.
These two actions certainly
have no relation to brother
hood and friendship among
nations. Instead, in the first
instance, 1t is pointing the
way to further contamina-
ton Of the air and a multi
piled number Of deaths and
detectives. Albert Schweitzer
admonishes in his Peace or
Atomic War, "Only those who
have never been present at
the birth Of a deformed baby,
never witnessed the whimper-
ing shock Of its mother, dare
to maintain that the risk Of
going on with nuclear tests
is one which must be taken
in existing circumstances"
AS to the second instance,
there is increased probability
Of an accidental bomb explo-
sion. Both Of these acts OF
ours invite similar acts on
the part Of other nations. I
understand 1t takes about a
year and a half to prepare
for nuclear tests. That length
Of time will just about have
elapsed by next summer. The
Russian timing is only a little
ahead Of ours. Is there a
connection between this fact
and the two recent actions Of
the President?
