And the visitors have witnessed, also,
ugly scenes in which the Premier's po-

Further than that, these representatives

that President KaSavubu, the Congo Re

Can't Have 1t Both Woys

Efforts of some Democrats to make
political capital out of President Eisen-
hower'S press conference comments on
Vice President Nixon'S advisory role in
the administration are confusing, to say
the least. The net effect has been to put
those indulging in such disingenuous-
ness in the rather absurd position of
arguing against their own arguments.
In the first place, we do not recall
that the Vice President ever has claimed
that he shared in the decision making
responsibilities of the Chief Executive
On the contrary, Mr.. Nixon has made
it plain in the past-and has reaffirmed
it In teleVision interview following the
Presidents press conference-that his
role in the cabinet and National Secu-
rity Council meetings has been solely
OF a consultative and advisory nature.
However, the Vice Presidents attend
ance at these meetings certainly has
provided him with an invaluable back
ground of knowledge and experience
that should be of great benefit to him
if he were to become President of the
United States.
In the second place, the glee with
which some Democratic spokesmen have
greeted Mr.. Eisenhower's assertion that
he alone makes administrative decisions
is hard to understand, in view of Demo-
cratic attempts to saddle Candidate
Nixon with some responsibility for the
Eisenhower administrations farm pol
icies, defense shortcomings" and other
alleged Republican failures. Their real
target ought to be President Eisenhower
himself-but apparently the present
strategy is to go easy on Mr. Eisenhower
Too many people still like Ike.
But If the Democrats want to blame
Mr.. Nixon for what they regard as basic
faults of the Republican administration,
then they can Ill afford at the same time
to belittle the role of the Vice President
in the councils of state held under the
Eisenhower regime. Contrariwise, If
the Democratic pitch is to be that Mr..
Nixon has been in no position to gain
either valuable knowledge or experience
in the Government, any charge that he
is even partly responsible for so-called
Republican bungling in domestic or in
ternational fields will have an exceed
ingly hollow ring. The Democrats just
can't have it both ways.

One Against Twenty

Premier Fidel Castro and Foreign
Minister Raul Roa have made bleakly
clear that Cuba'S revolutionary govern
ment" has nothing but contempt for
the 2l-nation Organization of American
States Further, singing the praises of
Moscow and Peiping while heaping con-
tumely on Washington, they have left
little room for doubt that the Havana
dictatorship would like nothing better
than to wreck the OAS and help interna-
tional communism extend its tentacleS
throughout the Western hemisphere.
This conclusion seems ineScapable
in view of the latest Castro harangue
in Havana and the Roa speech to the
foreign ministers of the OAS now meet
ing in San Jose, Costa Rica. The Cuban
dictator, whose capacity for abnormally
offensive conduct grows by leaps and
bounds from day to day, has cut loose
not merely with another of his vilely
mendacious hate Washington TRADES,
but also with peculiarly screeching
kind of ridicule directed against our
hemisphere system of political, eco
nomic and military cooperation for
mutual progress and security. In effect,
with Raul Roa echoing him in San Jose,
he has lampooned and libeled the policy
of good neighborliness in a way calcu-
lated to divide the Americas and soften
them up, one by one,> for Communist
inf1ltration and SubverSion.
In the circumstances, Secretary of
State Herter certainly has not exagger-
ated in declaring to the San Jose gath
ering that the Castro regime is walk
ing hand-in-hand" with the Moscow
Peiping axis and is willing to assist the
Soviet Union in spreading communism
in the rest of the hemisphere" Accord
ingly, AS he has put it, the OAS has
every reason to regard "Sino-S Soviet
Imperialism as an urgent challenge"
calling for necessary positive decisions
This is so, in Mr. Herters words, because
the Russian and Chinese Reds "have
made abundantly clear their determi-
nation to exploit the situation in Cuba
as a means of intervening in inter
American affairs. Their purpose is to
break solidarity, sow diStrust and fear
among the people Of the American hemi-
sphere, and thereby prepare the way for
political control of the New World"
Since Fidel Castro has strongly in
dicated that he has no intention of
being anything but a pro- Communist
maverick in this matter, his regime may
rightly be regarded as sinister center
of opposition against the 20 other Amer
icas. The OAS, taking careful note of all
this, including particularly the venomous
nature of Havanas attack on the United
States, can i'll afford not to do whatever
may be necessary to convince the Reds
that they play with fire when they toy
with the idea of taking over the Western
hemisphere.

Dock VS.. Pier

As a transient. but keen,
visiting yachtsman, l was
delighted to read the article
by Newman Sudduth on how
to build a projection into a
body of water, designed to
allow easy embarkation and
Decentralization.
Such a device is known as
a pier" or even, to stretch
meanings a little, a wharf"
To call it a dock" however
is to make black white; yes,
no; and night, day!
A dock" is a re-entrant,
hollow. or defect in a bank
or shore, which admits a yes
sci for convenience, or re-
pairs.
See Webster. the oxford,
and The Rudder"; and then,
Newman Sudduth himself!
The structure. If not the
naming of it. would be fine
and workmanlike one, for
which congratulations!

RedeveIopment Process

At time when Congress is demand
ing greater speed in urban redevelop-
ment in Washington, 1t Is ironical that
the Senate has imposed a new restraint
on administration of the program. The
restraint is in the form of an amend
ment complicating land acquisition
procedures.
This would give the Senate and
House District Committees a sort of veto
power over all transfers of land from
the District Government to the Rede-
velopment Land Agency, transfers which
the District may make under existing
law without consulting any congressional
group. The amendment, however, would
require submission to the committees
of any such land transactions. If neither
committee objected within thirty days,
the transfer could be effected.
AS a practical matter, there are only
a few small land deals between the
District and the agency where the pro-
cedure would be invoked. And it must
be recognized that if any such deal per-
suaded either the House or Senate Dis
trict Committees to take the positive
dCGlUIl IcQulIcu W NcGO IL, GIlc ucd1
should be re-examined in detail.
At any rate, the possible disadvan-
tages of some delay are heavily out
weighed by the obvious advantages in
the basic legislation itself. This meas
ure, urged by the Redevelopment Land
Agency, would give the agency un-
questioned authority to conduct slum
clearance operations in blighted indus
trial as we'll as residential areas. The
agency has found that the lack of
specific mention of commercial prop
critics has raised legal questions which
are hampering the urban redevelopment
program. The Senate commercially has
corrected this defect in the law.

City Heads and RIA

AS one who has severely
criticized the Redevelopment
Land Agency before the Dis
trict Commissioners, the
House District Committee,
and in a report prepared for
the Senate District Com
mittee I wish to endorse a
statement made by John r.
Searles. jr., in your news
paper Of Sunday.
Mr.. Searles stated: (Re-
ferring to the activities Of
Col. T. K. Fullerton) The
Commissioners look to him
for urban renewal recon-
mendations on policy rather
than letting RIA present its
case directly. Let the CO.
ordinator coordinate"
Right!
In my report to the Sen
ate District Committee, I
stated:
The Redevelopment Land
Agency Of the District of
Columbia. contrary to the
understanding of most citi-
zens Of the District, is not
responsible to the District
Commissioners. 1t is re-
sponsible only to Congress.
Created under Public Law
892-79th Congress. I'd Ses-
sion IS 1426)-in accordance
with Sec. 4 "a no con-
trolling power of RLA's
operations is delegated to the
District Commissioners.
However, Sec. 6, "a para
graphs Cd and 90 make the
District Commissioners re-
sponsible for approval of
plans" submitted by the Plan
ming Commission, which
when approved, are executed
by RIA"
There is nothing in the
District Of Columbia Rede-
velopment Act or any other
act passed by Congress, that
gives the District Commits
sioners any degree of power
over RIA. To take to them
selves power to dictate policy
or operational procedures, is
to usurp power improperly,
and 1t is such intrusion that
repeatedly helps bog down
programs.

bate with Douglas for the
Senate, began: "A house
divided against itself cannot
stand. I believe that this
government cannot endure
permanently half-slave and
half free. 1t will become all
one thing or all the other"
Douglas, as Senator, had been
the author of the bill repeal
ing the Missouri Compromise
which sought to limit free and
slave soil. His closest politi-
cal advisers warned Lincoln
he would lose the election II
he made this statement. Lin
coin was not to be deferred.
The Taft Debates
In a senatorial campaign in
more recent days, joint de-
bates were to play an import
ant part in the career of an
other Republican - the late
Senator Robert A. Taft Of
Ohio. He was running against
Democratic Senator Bulkley
in 1888 in the heyday Of
Franklin D. Roosevelt's polit-
ical power. Neither man was
an orator. But Senator Taft's
great earnestness and SINGER
ity and his tenacity in his be-
liefs as to what was in the
best interests of the people
shone forth even then. He
went on to win the Senate
seat and become a great lead
er and three times a candi-
date for the Republican presi-
Dental nomination.
There were no joint de-
bates when Lincoln ran and
was elected President in
1860. He made an acceptance
speech in Springfield and let
it go at that. But the ad-
vantage of having presi-
dental candidates appear
together in national election
debates cannot be denied.
Many presidential candidates
have transformed and whis-
tle-stopped their way across
the country. More recently
they have been able to cover
vast territories in brief time
by air transportation.
At least one State has
seen the value of having op-
posing candidates for high
office appear on the same
platform and frequently.
This is South Carolina, a
one-party State Demo-
cratic), and these joint ap-
pearances have been in
preparation for primary elec-
tions, whose results are tan
tamount to election. The
candidates travel over the
State. meeting frequently
and speaking their pieces.
Tactics of the candidates
have differed widely. I re-
member that in the year
when James F. Byrnes, who
had held almost every i'm
portant Federal Office (as
we'll as Senator and Repre-
sentative in CongreSs) eX-
cept the Presidency and
Vice Presidency. ran for the
gubernatorial nomination. he
attended all these joint
meetings Of candidates-but
he would take the stage
when his turn came. ignore
completely his opponents.
Others. however, have be-
labored their opponents.
Mr.. Nixon and Senator
Kennedy should give a good
account of themselves in the
coming debates, and nothing
should be allowed to prevent
these meetings.

Aid to Education

The specific issue in aid to
education is whether or not
tax money should be allotted
to school systems other than
the public school system. If
the public school system could
provide a complete education
acceptable to all citizens there
would be no issue. The fact is
that in our representative
democracy the religion Of our
citizens is different. Hence a
public education could not
include religion without being
offensive in one way or an
other to at least a part of the
people. But education in it's
complete sense not only deals
with knowledge to be acquired
but with character to be
formed. To form character
means to act according to
principles or standards. Reli-
gion provides these true prin-
cipleS-and this is an inte-
grail part Of education. not an
adjunct or appendage.
Now a public school system
can maintain an adequate
education but never a COM
plete education. Hence it is
only just that taxes collected
from all the people for edu-
cation should be distributed
or credited to the educational
institution actually attended.
To do otherwise is to ignore
the private school systems.
which existed and contributed
to education before any pub
lie school system was eStab-
liShed' and which still con-
tribute to the educational
process as much as the public
school system. II the Gov
ernment must collect taxes
from all the people for edu-
cation it must respect the
rights of parents to choose
that education. 1t should
credit on a fair basis the in
stitution actually attended
whether public or private. We
are the United States. not the
Uniform States.
