Mr.. Eisenhower's Calm Handling
Of Arguments Called Inspiring

deter the Russians from max
ing the attack.
Gen. Power wants more
money for the "airborne
alert" He is sincere about
it. He thinks this is essential.
But the President and his
other military advisers. in
cluding the Joint Chiefs of
Staff, think that until a cri-
sis is imminent-and it cer-
tainly doesn't seem to be for
the next few months at least
the same money, about
$3.50 million, can be put into
the development of missiles
and the improvement of
other weapons of warfare.
In fact, the President put it
this way in his budget mes
sage TO Congress recently:
1T is neither necessary
nor practical to fly a con-
tinuouS airborne alert at this
time. Such a procedure would,
over a relatively short period
of time. seriously degrade our
overall capability to respond
to attack. What I am recon-
mending is a capability to
fly such an alert if the need
should arise, and to main
tain that alert for a rea-
Sonable period of time, until
the situation which necessi-
tated it becomes clarified"
But a general naturally
isn't satisfied with this. It's
his business to keep his de-
fenses up. The civilian side,
however, takes what are
called calculated riskS 1t
means that in this era of
Soviet policy the belief is
that Moscow will not take a
chance on a nuclear blow at
the United States, for the
Soviet Union would have to
face manned bombers from
European bases as we'll as
missiles from naval vessels,
and the Russians would not
wish to risk such destruction.
Il don't believe" said the
President yesterday, that
anyone today can destroy all
of our capabilities for re-
taliation, and they cannot
destroy today enough of them
that we couldn't retaliate
very effectively to the point of
destructiveneSs to them"

presidency at his party's con-
vention. There already was
some wish, when he made
known his refusal. to have
him agree to second place
because of his religion. The
hope was thereby to avoid
some Of the controversy ex-
pected from the Deep South
States. Had Senator Kennedy
shown any sign Of doubt he
would have doomed all
chances.
He now has a better chance
to win the nomination than
at any previous time. Antic-
ipated victories in the New
Hampshire and Wisconsin
primaries will create a swing
to him. This will be most
evident on second and third
ballots when favorite sons re-
lease their delegates.
At any rate, instead of be-
ing merely favored to lead
on the first ballot, Senator
Kennedy now is regarded as
having the nomination with
in reach.
Only Senator LXndon
johnson can prevent it. He
has been, from the beginning,
the man about whom the
stop Kennedy" force was
rallying. This now has been
publicly recognized in the
Kennedy organization. 1t is
likely there will some not
altogether-concealed bitter
ness develop before the con-
vention is called to order in
July.
If his reach falls short of
the nomination, he will hard
ly accept second place with
Senator johnson. 1t is pre-
cisely this situation, the sue
cess of the stop-kennedy
movement by Senator John
son, which could open the
door for a real dark horse.
Most Of the Kennedy dele
gates would likely go, not to
Senator Symington. but to
Representative Bowles of
Connecticut, former Am
basSador to India, and one
of the men in the party well
fitted for the honor.

Refusal of Second-P Place Nomination,
As With Lincoln, Called Best Move

Lincoln had too many basic
differences of principle with
Seward. And while Seward
could compromise principle,
Lincoln couldn't.
But he also knew that to
offer himself for second place
would automatically make
him the less considered for
first or second. He would
likely end up with nothing.
In early February, he wrote
a friend: II am not in a
position where it would hurt
much for me not to be NOM
mated on the national ticket;
but I am where it would hurt
not to get the Illinois dele
gates" He meant by this it
would damage his prospects
for a future senatorial seat.
His plan was to try for the
presidency. Failing in that
he would resume his activ-
tiles for the Senate.
1t was the fortuitous in
vitation to speak in New York
in late February, at Cooper
Union, which gave him an
opportunity to make the East
aware of him. He did so in a
moderate, carefully thought
out speech which held strictly
to principle and sought from
the South only rational dis
cussion and agreement. He
aroused a large crowd, which
came through snow and
damp to hear him, to en-
thusiasm rarely seen in New
York.
His son Robert was at Phil
lips Exeter Academy and had
not been doing too well in
classes. A visit to his son
enabled him to speak in New
England where there was
eagerness to hear him be-
cause of the great success at
Cooper Union.
Senator Kennedy, already
in the Senate, would have
ruined any prospect for first
place by any sign of being
willing to accept the vice

lowest ebb. There is no ques-
ton that a visit by Mr.. Eisen-
hover to Manila for only a
few hours would do more
good than a ton'of diplomatic
notes and speeches about
good will and lasting friend
ship. Yet, the Philippines
are not included on the
Eisenhower route.
Similarly, great distress is
felt in Korea because Mr..
Eisenhower, who could fly
from Tokyo to Seoul in only
two hours, decided to ignore
the Korean capital. The
Korean government and peo-
pie do not regard the alliance
with the United States as a
marriage of convenience. The
Koreans have a deep devo-
ton for the United States.
From President Rhee to the
most humble farmer they
know how much they owe
this country and have always
shown themselves willing and
ready to repay their debt to
US, in blood if necessary.
Moreover, we have in Korea
an American Army corps of
two divisions as well as an air
wing. Why, ask the Koreans
and FilipinoS, can't President
Eisenhower spare a few hours
to visit those countries,
which, besides being among
the most loyal allies we have
anywhere in the world, are
hosts to important American
naval, air and ground forces?
Politically, they resent the
fact that Japan alone has
been singled out to be hon.
ored by the Chief Executive
of the United States. Japan,
they say, has been showered
with our good will and as
sistance. Japan, which op-
pressed the Koreans and Fill
pinos only Is years ago, is
to receive the signal honor
of a presidential visit while
they will be ignored. Surely,
they feel. the health of Mr..
Eisenhower cannot be af-
fected if he returned to

shrink from open challenge

Their customary excuse is
that they will not do to any
man what Republicans did
to Presidents Roosevelt and
Truman. This is hardly more
than a plea in avoidance and
it comes from the party

perior ability to practice the

To claim that they can do
no more than raise the de-

to admitting that they lack

Freight Rates Go
Up on Alaska R.R.

WASHINGTON, Up - The gov
ernment's Alaska Railroad is rails
ing rates on about is per cent of
its freight traffic, effective March
26.
The Interior Department, in an
nouncing the action, said the
boosts were designed to offset in
creased costs on cargo moving be-
tween West Coast ports and In
terror Alaska.
Robert Anderson, general man.
ager of the railroad, said the
principal increase will be five
cents per 100 pounds for carload
freight. He added this would ap-
ply to only about one-seventh of
the lines total tonnage.
Freight in less than carload lots
moving across the Seward dock
will be increased 10 cents per
hundredweight, Anderson said.
He observed, however, that al
most all the railroads freight
moves in carload lots.
Anderson estimated the higher
rates will add about $150,0O0 to
the railroads annual revenues,
and that without them it would
operate at deficit. He said Con-
gress has repeatedly called for
the railroad to pay its own way.
Rates will not be increased for
the IS per cent of freight traffic
moving at local rates, which were
not affected by higher longshore
costs, Anderson said.
He explained that to a large de-
gree the increases were caused by
wage hikes for the Longshore-
mems Union and the private steve
doring operator at the Seward
railroad dock.
Anderson said that in the past
two years the basic hourly long
shore wage rate at the Seward
dock increased from $316 to 1886.

Hedberg Says Egan Has
Lost Favor with Labor
Through ESQ Legislation

JUNEAU, Up = Governor Egan
and a spokesman for organized
labor differed sharply Thursday
in comment on legislative approx
al of the Governors employment
security program.
Egan said, after the Senate voted
11-9 to accept a House-approved
version of jobless insurance bill,
that the interest of the working
man is best served by the passage
of this legislation"
Henry Hedberg of Anchorage,
lobbyist for the State Federation
of Labor, commented: "He has big
business on his side now"
Asked if this meant Egan does
not now have the support of la
Dor, Hedberg replied: Fright now
he hasn't, no. l doubt whether he
can ever recoup the position he
had with the labor movement"
Egan said the employment Sc
curity program will be paying its
own way on fair and equitable
basis" for the first time in many
years.
The new program will result in
an estimated annual surplus Of
1921, 900 in the fund. 1t provides
no increase in benefit payments
to jobless workers, which was
one of the main goals of organ
lied labor at the current legisla-
tive session.

First Khrushchev Talks
With De Gaulle Held in
Pleasant ATMOSPHERE

PARIS, UP - Soviet Premier
Khrushchev held his first private
talk with President De Gaulle for
two hours and presumably plugged
some more for a Moscow-Paris
axis to replace Frances growing
alliance with West Germany.
Two interpreters were the only
other persons present as the two
leaders talked in De Gaulle's pri-
vate office. The Premier and the
French President smiled pleasant
ly as they emerged and shook
hands on the steps of the Elysee
Palace.
The first talks were held in a
very good atmosphere, an aide to
De Gaulle said. A high French
source said the initial talk was
largely exploratory and that De
Gaulle and Khrushchev ranged
over several subjects in the first
of their series of meetings.
Khrushchev arrived at the pal
ace in pouring rain for the first
business talk of his 11-day visit
to France. Scores of policemen
lined the Premier's route from the

ing, but few Parisians were out.

State Department
Refutes E.. German
Claim to Berlin

WASHINGTON, Up = The
United States formally rejected
yesterday Russia's claim that Ber-
lin is part of Soviet controlled
East Germany
The State Department produced
documents in English and Russian
which it said CLEARLY indicate
that Berlin was designated as a
separate area to he jointly occu-
pied"
The documents were signed by
Soviet, American and British rep
resentatives in London on Sept.
IL, 1914 : before Berlin had been
captured by Soviet forces.
Newsmen were handed a pho
tographic reproduction of the
original English and Russian texts
which spelled out the zones the
troops of each would occupy.
The action was an effort. in
advance Of East-West summit talks
on Berlin's future. to nail down
the Allied legal right to remain
in West Berlin until a single peace
treaty has been signed with all
Germany.
The documents made clear that
the Berlin area was not part Of
or ON the territory to be occu-
pied by any of the powers under
the agreement, the Department
said.
Rather, the agreement clearly
indicates that Berlin was desig-
mated as separate area to be
jointly occupied.
The State Department aimed
its words not only at Moscow but
at representatives of the East
German puppet regime who have
been contending in recent months
that Western troops are illegally
in West Berlin.
Soviet Premier Khrushchev has
been hammering at this theme in
public remarks, claiming it backs
up his demand for converting West
Berlin into a so-called free, de-
militarized city.

When Mr.. Peterson gets one

Lambert, Hendricks and Ross
backed by the Ike Isaacs Trio
have a fresh approach that is
ingratiating. They often seem

this is all right because they

instruments rather than as
communications instruments
The feminine (Ross) member

They also, when the occasion

Miss Fitzgerald, of course is

long ago got to be a habit with
her. If she had wanted to try
for an endurance record last
night she could still be out
there singing without having
lost any appreciable segment
of her audience. She had glid-

strong when this observer had
to repair reluctantly to the

Miss Fitzgerald, this time

form (and, man, don't knock
her form. She is in fine voice
and can run a chill up your
spine as she decorates a melody,
putting three or four trilled
notes where the composer
