Boycott KremIin?

In the Russian magazine
"SVOBODA" Fr e e DOM
published by an escapee Or
ganization in Germany, a re-
cent defector from the Soviet
Union asks a few pertinent
questions:
THE whole world knows
that many tens of millions of
Russian and other nationals
have been murdered and tor
tured during the past AZ
years, hundreds of millions
of people are held by them in
abject slavery. 1t is also
known that the major and
ultimate goal Of the Kremlin
was and is the conquest of
the whole world. Khru-
shchev, a loyal pupil of Stain
and heir to his murderous
policy, has repeatedly made
it clear that he is out to bury
the people of the United
States.
The President of the
United States is surely we'll
familiar with all that. Why,
then, does he send congratu-
latory cablegrams to the
Kremlin on the occasion of
the anniversary of this anti
democratic and anti-human-
itarian regime?
I'm the light of the present
struggle against communism,
1t seems to this writer that it
might be more practical to
declare an open and absolute
boycott against this merciless
enemy in the Kremlin :"
This is the voice of the en-
slaved Russian peoples, the
voice not to be heard over
any Soviet radio, not pub
lished in any of the Kremlin-
owned newspapers. We would
do we'll, before undertaking
anything, before making any
public statement in our rela-
tions with the Soviets, to ask
ourselves: Will the masses of
Russia approve or diSapprove,
how will they react? We must
always speak not to Nikita or
Gromyko, but over their
heads to the Soviet peoples.
Khrushchev does that all the
time. He did this here, in
France, more recently in
Austria. Why don't our Off
cials show a bit more courage
in our fight against the evil
force?

Alive and Kickinq

Those anguiShed cries drifting in
from Chicago were not the death walls
of an expiring elephant. They were COM
ing, instead, from G. o. P which is
displaying considerably more life and
vigor than even it's friends had antici-
pated.
The convention, opening today, was
supposed to be cut-and-dried affair.
The delegates were expected to approve
a bland platform, nominate Mr.. Nixon,
pick running mate and then proceed
quietly to their respective homes. But
it hasn't quite happened that way. The
fireworks started when it, was learned
that Mr.. Nixon had slipped away to
New York for secret meeting with
Governor Rockefeller. When word of
this reached Senator Barry Goldwater,
one of the party'S few remaining pillars
of conservatism, he erupted with charges
of surrender" and Munich Of the Re-
publican Party" Mr.. Eisenhower, how
ever, says it isn't so.
Ezra Taft Benson, not considered
to be one of the party's most reliable
testers of the political winds, came out
for Governor Rockefeller as the G. o. P.
presidential nominee. This couldn't pos
Sibly help Mr.. Rockefeller, although it
may have been something of break
for Mr.. Nixon, since it gave him chance
to emphasize his diSagreements with
the Secretary of Agriculture. Finally,
as convention time drew close, there
still were reports of possible floor fight
over the platform and revived talk of
drafting Governor Rockefeller for the
No. 2 spot, despite his I-won't-serve-if-
nominated statement.
In the end, nothing may come of
all this. But these Republican f1areupS
at least have managed to inject little
life into what had promised to be
relatively dull gathering of the party
faithful. And since this convention
marks the Tooth anniversary of the
nomination of Abraham Lincoln,
choice which set the party up in busi-
ness, it ought to be anything but dull.

THIS AND THAT
By CHARLES E. TRACEWELL

The best ways of ventilat-
ing a home in very hot
weather will always be a mat
ter of dispute.
Some have found that
closing the downstairs up
tightly after the outside tenn
perature goes higher than
that inside is the best way.
There is nothing to be
gained from the outside any
more, much to be lost by
permitting the precious cool
ness of the interior to be
warmed up by it.
AS to the upstairs, that
is another matter. Many be-
lieve that nothing at all is
to be gained by closing the
windows here.
There is plain gain if there
is an attic with windows to
keep these open as well as
the door to the attic.
If this can be combined
with open windows and doors
in the basement, the house
holder has one of Natures
own inventions-the draft.
The staircases serve as a
sort Of chimney, drawing in
air from the bottom and
taking the heated air away
at the top.
II +
In the evening as soon as
the sun has gone down it is
best to open up the entire
house.
Whether the upstairs win
dows are best open at top
and bottom is a matter for
study.
There are always people
who insist on full-length
screens for the sleeping quar-
ters and others of equal per-
spicacity who declare that it
makes no difference whether
the air space is all in one
section, at the bottom, or in
two parts, one each at top
and bottom.
Some who have tried both
ways claim that it makes
not the slightest bit Of diff
ference.
Just let some one get into
his head the idea that win
dows lowered from the top
make room cooler, he will
swear they do, no matter If
you prove to him that there
is not a degrees difference.
He is cooler in his mind;
that is what counts.

THE POLITICAL MILL
Nixon Acts Quickly to Unite Party
BY GOULD LINCOLN

candidate for the presiden-
tial nomination, permitting
his name to be submitted to
the national convention. Or
he may go into the conven-
ton, with the weight of New
York's 96-member delegation
back of him, to make a floor
fight for the kind of planks
he wants in the platform. Or
he might go away from the
convention ready to sit on his
hands, rather than conduct
the kind of fighting cam
paign for the national ticket
of which he is capable.
Senator Goldwater is the
disgruntled party. When he
first heard of the Nixon
Rockefeller rapprochement
and the l4-point program to
go into the platform, he called
it a Munich for the Repub-
lican Party. By yesterday he
had cooled of a little, al
though he was threatening to
allow his name to go before
the convention for the presi-
dental n omination. Two
State delegations have been
instructed for Senator Gold
water-AriZona and South
Carolina. Mississippi Repub-
licans have threatened to go
to him. There are delegates
scattered through a number of
other States ready to follow
the right winger's standard.
Even should the names of
both Gov. Rockefeller and
Senator Goldwater be pre-
Sented to the convention in
opposition to Mr.. Nixon, the
Vice President has the vast
number of delegates nailed
down. Obviously. however,
Mr.. Nixon would prefer
smooth sailing. He is one of
those politicians who does
not believe that a victory is
won-in this case for a presi-
dental nomination - until
the votes have been counted.
But should three men be
placed in nomination for
President instead of one, it
might go far to increase the
interest of the public in this
convention-the centennial of
the Abraham Lincoln nomi-
nation for president by the
Republicans, which also was
held in Chicago.
Relieves MOnotony
Indeed, the activities of
Gov. Rockefeller and Senator
GoldWater, and the fight over
the platform are the things
that have relieved monotony.
Mr.. Nixon will have an able
assistant in any battle or
peace maneuver at this con-
vention - the Governor of
Oregon, the youthful and
quick-witted Mark o. Hat
field. The Oregonian breezed
into Chicago yesterday. He is
to place Mr.. Nixon's name
before the convention for
President. He is a friend of
both Mr.. Nixon and Gov.
Rockefeller.
He astonished a press con-
ference by announcing that
he intended to do his utmost
to have Gov. Rockefeller
nominated for Vice President.
Everybody, almost, had given
up on a Rockefeller vice
presidential nomination, in
view of the iron-clad state
mentS of the New Yorker
that he would not accept.
No one believes Gov. Hat
field will be able to change
Gov Rockefeller's determina-
ton not to take second place.
But everyone admired his
temerity in suggesting that
there still might be a Nixon
Rockefeller ticket.

Evening star., 1960-07-25


Nixon, who has the 1860
presidential nomination firm
ly in his grasp. arrives here
today, hoping to calm the
nerves and soothe feelings of
the battling liberal wing of
the Republican Party and the
equally battling right wing.
He no longer has to worry
about his place at the top of
the national ticket-if he
ever did-since Gov. Nelson
A. Rockefeller of New York
retired from the race for the
presidency last December.
But he must have a united
party back of him if he is to
have a chance of victory next
November.
He already has gone far in
the direction of winning the
support of the liberals. He
now has to work on the right
wingers. Although he brought
much criticism on himself by
his visit to New York. where
he and Gov. Rockefeller
found themselves able to
agree on the character and
most of the details of the Re-
publican platform, he again
demonstrated his ability po-
litically.
1t makes little difference
that Gov. Rockefeller was
permitted to soar in the lime
light, or that the members
of the Platform Committee
screamed with rage because
of the effort to tell them what
to put into the platform. Mr..
Nixon, after his conference
with Gov. Rockefeller, had
gone the long mile toward
winning the active support of
the New York Governor. That
was the prize he was angling
for.
Will Placate DissidentS
He now must bind up the
wounds of the right wingers,
represented by Senator Gold
water of Arizona, their most
vocal spokesman. Mr.. Nixon
is no novice in this kind of
operation. If he could vir-
tually single e-handedly bring
about an agreement between
the steelworkers and the
steel companies to end the
long, drawn-out strike last
year, he certainly should be
able to get the factions now
warning over the platform to
bury the hatchet.
After all, these Republicans
know that within a few days
Mr.. Nixon is to become the
leader of their party, their
candidate for President. They
want to win the national
election. No politician ever got
very far by cutting off his
nose to spite his face. That is
clear to Gov. Rockefeller as
well as to Senator Gold
water-no matter what their
threats.
Gov. Rockefeller's tune
during his appearance yes
terday on MICS televised
program Meet the Press"
was vastly more pro-Nixon.
He expressed satisfaction that
he had found during his
eight-hour conference with
Mr.. Nixon that his own views
on major issues and princi-
Piles were very close to those
of Nixon.
The New Yorker, however,
is a cagey battler. He intends
to hold. if he can, all the
ground he gained in his con-
ference with Mr.. Nixon. To
aid him, he still bangles over
the heads of the supporters
of Mr.. Nixon the possibility
he may turn up as an active

Airport Bond Issue

Delegates to the Helena Trades and
Labor Council took formal action at
/, their meeting Monday evening en-
dorsing the bond issue for improve
ments to the runways at the Helena
Airport, but in speaking for the pro-
posed improvements at the airport
they pointed to the following specific
points to be considered with their en-
dorsement, reports council Secretary
j. Vern Lawson.
81. Helena Trades and Labor Coun-
Gil does not favor contraction or re-
duction of transportation of any kind
for the Capital City whether it be
railroad, bus, highway or. air travel.
A growing community's very exist
ence hinges on orderly expansion of
transportation facilities serving its
people.
''2. In endorsing this Improvement
program. Helena Trades and Labor
Council wishes to emphasize that this
endorsement is conditioned on the
improvement work being done in a
satisfactory manner This point is
made having in mind that numerous
street Improvement projects Of recent
years have seemingly been brought
about primarily for the benefit of
paving contractors rather than for
John @. Public who pays the bill
through extremely high special i'm
provement taxes"
The council definitely is not in
favor of the new type of paving con-
struction which has been prevalent
in our new street systems about the |
city in the past year or so. They
favor the type of construction that
will stand the test of time and use
with the minimum of maintenance
costs.
