gian troops in the Congo because
of his adverse reports to Brussels.
Before the Security Council
acted, Russia had vowed it would
send troops to the aid of the
f1edgling Congolese government if
Premier Lumumba needed them.
This appalled, other members of
the United Nations, which was
struggling to solve one of the most
challenging problems in its his
tory. Secretary General Dag Ham
marskjold worked feverishly at
U. N. headquarters to arrive at an
acceptable solution and his under
secretary, DR.. Ralph Bunche of
the United States, was on the
scene in Leopoldville.
The State Department, provoked
by the Kremlin's threat to inter-
vene in the African situation,
sternly protested Russia's "delib-
crate. unilateral attempt to OBJ
struct the United Nations in the
Congo" 1t also decried Russian
charges and implications regard
ing a small United States military
contingent on duty in Congo. The
only function of this group of
about 20 men is to help with the
airlift of u N. troops and emer-
gency supplies, the department
asserted.
Secretary of State Herter, meet
ing with newsmen in Washington
only hours before the Security
Council voted on the Belgian troop
withdrawal, expressed the cenvic-
ton that RusSia's threat to inter-
cede in the Congo was recklessly
irresponsible bluff. Il find it hard
to believe that the Soviet Union
is prepared to set itself against
the United Nations in the effort
to restore order to the Congo,
which is progressing so rapidly
and WE'LL" said Mr.. Herter.
In renouncing the plan to re-
quest Soviet military aid, Premier
Lumumba said he was motivated
by the fact he is convinced the
Security Council resolution will
be carried out effectively. Further
more, he said, he was pleased that
Secretary General HamInarskjold
had refused to recognize the prov
ince of Katanga as a separate
state. That mine rich province
had declared it's secession from
Congo in the bitter developments
Of the last three weeks.
Both the Congolese government
and Russia have charged that
Katanga seeded with the con-
nivance of the Belgian govern
ment, But the Security Council
resolution of Friday included a
section imploring all members of
the United Nations not to under
mine the territorial integrity of
the Congo.

Summit for G. o. P.

And so, although he had al
ready met Mr.. Rockefeller half
way and was willing to forget and
forgive the oblique attacks and
damaging suggestions by the Gov
ernor and his adherents that
Nixon can't win the Vice Presi-
dent went one step further.
He arranged for a face -to-face
meeting with Mr.. Rockefeller on
Friday night to discuss the plat
form and, presumably, other
party matters. This Republican
Summit meeting took place in
Mr.. Rockefeller's New York home.
After eight hours of discussion,
during which the two leaders
talked with members of the plat
form committee in Chicago, an
agreement was pounded out. This
statement by Mr.. Rockefeller in
dicated that he was happy with
the results:
These (the platform agree
mentS) constitute the basic posi-
tions for which I have been fight
ing. If they are embodied in the
Republican Party platform, as
adopted by the convention, they
will constitute a platform that
can support with pride and vigor."
AS outlined by Mr.. Rockefeller,
the platform corresponds with
many of his objectives, although
they are less specific than he
would have liked. For example,
he wants to spend $3.5 billion
more for defense right away. No
figure was mentioned in his post
summit statement. Again, he
seems to have given ground on
his medical aid-to-the-aged plan.
But he won points. 1t seems, in
his recommendation that a new
post be created to assist the

GoIdwoter Angry

But in addition to drawing the
wrath of the conservative wing,
led by Senator Goldwater of Ar
iona who blasted what he called
the imposition" of Rockefeller
views. Mr.. Nixon indicated he
and the Governor still have diff
ferenceS in these major fields:
Health insurance for the aged;
compulsory arbitration; defense;
growth rate of the national econ
omy and agriculture. Secretary
Ezra Taft Benson came out for
Mr.. Rockefeller for President yes
terday.
1t is curious that in the pre-
convention activity, Mr.. Rockefeller
has dominated the talk. He came
to Chicago in his own jet plane
he's one up on the not-quite-so-
wealthy Mr.. Kennedy. whose air
craft is conventionally powered
and accompanied by big staff
which is ensconced in II suites in
a leading hotel and which uses
38 telephones in going about its
business.
The Governor obviously hopes
that lightning will strike. If it
does, he is holding the bottle with
which to catch it. But even the
optimistic estimates that he would
gain more than 800 votes on the
first ballot indicate he would be
a quick loser. 1t takes 666 to NOM
mate. His name very likely will
go before the convention. But if
he sees certain defeat he may very
we'll ask formally that it be with
drawn.
What makes Rocky run? This
is an obsorbing question which
every observer has asked himself
at least once. There is no GER
tain. unchallenged answer, but
indications are that the New
Yorker honestly feels that Mr..
Nixon will not win in November
and that he, Mr.. Rockefeller, had
best hold back for another all
out effort for the nomination in
1864.
If this indeed represents the
Governors strategy it is, Of course,
a large-sized gamble. In the first
place many Republican stalwarts
will take a dim view of any un-
willingness on his part to support
the party all-out in November.
because it obviously will take an
all-out effort to win.
OF course, if MIR. Nixon wins,
Mr. Rockefeller would have no
chance at the presidency for
eight years. And if Mr.. Kennedy
wins, the odds would favor the
Massachusetts, Democrat for a
second term in 1864.
Again, if Mr.. Nixon should lose
close race to Mr.. Kennedy, he
would still be a very potent can
didate for denomination in 1864
even if Mr.. Rockefeller worked
hard for the ticket. If the Gov
ernor sat on his hands, Mr.. Nixon
then probably would be an odds
on favorite for a second chance.
Republican politicos, like Demo-
cratic politicoS, have long memo

During the council debate
Belgian Foreign Minister Pierre
Wigny promised his government
would withdraw it's troops from
the former African colony as soon
as the U. N. can assure order and
safety. He said the unity of Congo
was consecrated by Belgian law
and he pointed out that Belgium
has not intervened since the
country was set free.
1t still was not clear, however,
precisely what course Belgium
would follow in complying with the
U. N. decision. Some apparently
authoritative reports circulated in
Brussels to the effect that the
soldiers would be pulled back to
two Belgian military bases inside
the country-Kitona and Kamina
and not evacuated completely.
Amidst these developments,
Premier Lumumba perfected plans
for quick trip to United Nations
headquarters in New York. Taking

THE NATIONAL SCENE
Q. Q. P. Summit
Seeks Harmony

The Republican National Con-
ventiOn opens in Chicago to-
morrow with the key question
remaining: Can Mr.. Rockefeller
somehow be persuaded to ac-
cept a vice presidential nominal
tiOn on a NixOn-led ticket?
Vice President Nixon and
Governor Rockefeller agreed on
a party platform in an extra
ordinary eleventh hour meet
ing in New York on Friday and
Saturday.
On the eve of their national
convention, despite repeated dous-
ings of cold water, Republican
delegates and officials continued
to give testimony to Alexander
Pope's truism that Hope springs
eternal in the human breast"
All last week, as the 1860 G. o. P.
platform was being forged, un-
forged and reforged. Chicago hotel
lobbieS buzzed with talk of whether
Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New
York, the party's No. l enigma.
could, in the end, be persuaded to
run for Vice President on a ticket
led by Mr.. Nixon.
True, a group of partisans was
on the scene to plump for the
Governor as the presidential can
didate. but only the miracle
believers felt he had anything but
the well-known Chinaman's
chance against delegate-rich
Richard Nixon.
Mr.. Rockefeller. however, wants
to be President with a vengeance
and right now is regarded as the
most active "non-active" candi-
date ever to seek the nomination.

President Eisenhower asked
that the full membership of
the United Nations take up the
question of disarmament.
President Eisenhower moved last
week for an early meeting of the
United Nations Disarmament
Commission in the hope that a
start can be made upon a limita-
ton of armamentS, thereby re-
ducing the risk of war.
From his vacation headquarters
in Newport, R. l., the Chief Execu-
tive issued a statement making
clear his concern over the failure
of the great powers to reach an
agreement in this area. He said
a move through the United Ma
tions is imperative in view Of the
breakup of disarmament confer
ences by the donation group in
Geneva last month. Those talks
collapsed when Communism bloc
delegates walked out.
Asserting that everything posi-
BILE must be done to make dis
armament prograss, Mr.. Eisen-
hover instructed the American
Ambassador to the U. NJ, Henry
Cabot Lodge, to seek an early
meeting of the 82-member Dis
armament Commission. White
House Press Secretary James C.
Hagerty said the President hoped
the meeting would be called
within weeks, rather than within
months.
Pointedly, the President de-
clared the need for disarmament
in the present world situation is
too important to be set aside in
view of deliberate efforts" being
made to increase tensions. This
was an obvious reference to the
recent violent denunciationS of
Western powers by Soviet Premier
Nikita Khrushchev and his pro-
fessed desire to intercede in the
affairs of any country from Cuba
to the Congo.
Two days before he advocated

talks, President Eisenhower had
reviewed the international picture
with Secretary of State Herter
and oher top policy advisers. The
Secretary told reporters later the

view of the provocative acts and
statements against this country
by the Soviet Union.

He said he sought the meeting in
order to clear away public mis-
conceptions over differences be-
tween himself and the Governor

kind but is seen by Mr.. Mills to
be the direct result of the pollt-
ical economy of the West and
particularly of the U.S.A. He sees
the political economy intricately
linked with the military and the
financial. This is the triumvlrate
creating the thrust toward war.
The existence of a power elite IN
both the U.S.A. and the U.S.R.R.
is not a heavily guarded secret.
And it is this power elite which
is now able ito manage and to
manipulate the consent OF men
The international centrallZa-
ton of decision and the internal
development of the SWEEPSTAKES
mean that history making is
less a matter of some overwhelm-
ing fate than of the decisions and
the defaults of two power elites,
the viewpoints these elites
hold, the definitions of reality
they accept and act upon, the
policies they espouse and attempt
to these are among the
immediate causes of the thrust
toward World War III" Hence,
the intense preparation for war
is seen to be the greatest cause
of it.
These power elites in both the
Soviet state and the U.S.A. see
the conflict between communism
and democracy being decided
not by logic but by the state of
violence and the balance of
fright. Lewis Mumford put it
this way in saying that the two
great world powers are trying ito
solve the problems of absolute
peace, presented by nuclear
weapons, by concentrating Their
national resources upon mstru
ments of genoeide."
In accepting the definition
