FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR

MOON GLOW: One after.
noon, when Frank Frisch was
the manager of the st. Louis
Cardinals, his team was play
ing the Brooklyn Dodgers in
a game that had gone into
extra innings.
Darkness was settling rap
idly and it appeared certain
that the contest would be
called. This was one thing
Frisch was determined to
avoid.
In the 18th inning, when
the Dodgers came to bat,
stars were beginning to
twinkle in the sky. Suddenly,
out of the shadows, Frisch
saw a man walking toward
the plate umpire. This was it,
he was sure. The game was
about to be called.
Frisch bounded out Of the
dugout to intercept the man.
They reached the umpire at
the same time.
Nov, wait q minute!"
bawled Frisch, before the
other man could open his
mouth. you can't call this
game. Why. I can see the
ball as clearly as I can see
you!"
At this. the umpire called
the game, for the man at
whom Frisch had been rant
ing was the first Dodger bat
ter of the inning.

forget what / was looking
up, but I came across this hand
under the heading Trump
Promotion" Here is what
Reese has to say about the
hand:
Against four spades West
leads the Jack Of hearts. which
is covered by the queen and
king. East plays ace and an
other heart, and declarer rutis
with the queen Of trump.
Though the prospect Of a
second trump trick is uncer-
tain, it cannot profit West to
overruff, SO he discards. When
partner turns up with the ten,
West collects two trupm tricks"
Short, but clear and very
much to the point.
Excuse me, ladies and gents,
I'll be back with you as soon as
I've looked up two or three
more words.

Answer: Double. This type

side. The more you have in
trumps the less you need on
the side. but you always need

been nothing short Of re-

For these reasons. what is
known in intelligence circles
as a covering statement was
issued. It was issued on. as
sumption that were later proved
incorrect. Consequently. when
later the status of the pilot
was established. and there was
no further possibility of avoid
ing exposure Of the project, the
factual details were set forth.
Approved Alert
On another matter on which
there has been some criticism
Of the adminiStration-an Or
der for a defense alert on the
eve of the Inflated summit
meeting-Mr. Eisenhower went
out of his way to shoulder
responsibility.
He said he personally ap-
proved" a recommendation by
Defense Secretary Gates while
they we're in Paris that I'VE
test the continuing readiness
of our military communica-
tions."
Aside from his "open-skies"
proposal, the President set
down three policies as 'musts'
in the aftermath Of the sum-
nit wreckage. They we're:
/. I'VE must keep up our
Strength"-which ne described
as by far the most potent or
earth"-so as to make 1t clear
to the Soviet leaders that they
can gain nothing from pressure
tactics or aggression against

take this program. he said he is
convinced that all humanity
will be assured it is safe against
surprise attack, thus removing
"the greatest tension Of all
the fear Of war"
In defending the timing OF
the May / U-2 flight, the Presi-
dent did not make clear
whether he had personally ap-
proved that fight in advance
But he certainly was not dis
approving it now.
The question was really
whether to halt the program, -
he said, "and thus forgo the
gathering Of important infor-
nation that was essential and
that was likely to be unavail-
able at a later date. The de-
cision was that the program
should not be halted"
Answers Criticisms
Another factor for which the
administration has been widely
criticized is the way it issued
when Mr.. Khrushchev first an.
nounced an American plane
had been downed over Russia
a misleading statement about
a weather observation plane
being missing after having
oxygen trouble.
Mr.. Eisenhower answered the
criticism in these words:
Our first information about
the failure of this mission die

was still alive, was trying tc
escape, was avoiding interro-
CATION, or whether both plane
and pilot been destroyed. Pro.

President Tries
ToHoId Door
Open for Talks
BY GARNETT d. HORNER
star stan Writer

President Eisenhower, de-
Tending everything critics have
called "bungling" in the U-2
spy plane incident, strove to-
day to keep the door open to
"businesslike dealings" with
the Soviet Union to ease world
tensions. ....
He charted a four point pro-
gram for continued pursuit Of
peace in a televiSion-radio re-
port to the Nation and the
world last night-emphasizing
anew his "open sky" aerial in
spection plan.
The President. app e are d
calmly confident that the
United States and its allies are
on the right track despite what
he called Soviet Premier Khru-
shchev's suddenly expressed
hostility" in scuttling the Paris
summit conference last week.
He discounted danger of
early war, mainly because he
is convinced that the Soviet
people want lasting peace as
we do and that even despotS
such as Mr.. Khrushchev real
ize general nuclear war would
bring catastrophe for both
sides.
Avoids Belligerence
AS he did at Paris, the PreSi-
dent disdained to reply in kind
to the KhruShchev TRADE
against him and the United
States. He adopted instead a
dignifed, non-belligerent atti-
tude.
Mr.. Eisenhower made it clear
that he thinks Mr.. Khrushchev
used the U-2 incident as an
excuse to torpedo the summit
meeting because the Kremlin
already had concluded the
Paris conference could pro-
duce nothing constructive
from their viewpoint"
The President shouldered full
responsibility for the U-2 spy
plane flight as one Of several
programs he has approved to
ferret out information sabout
Soviet military preparations in
order to guard the free world
against surprise attack.
Shows Air Station Picture
By defending them, he also
assumed responsibility for the
timing just before the summit
OF the U-2 flight that went
wrong deep inside Russia on
May l, and the initial false
statement that it apparently
was a weather observation
plane that must have strayed
over Russia unintentionally.
Mr.. Eisenhower sprsng a sur
prise by exhibiting a remark
ably detailed photograph of a
naval air station at San Diego.
Calf. taken from an altitude
Of more than 10000 feet.
1t was such pictures that the
U-2 planes have been taking
over Russia for the past four
years. The President said that
their success has been nothing
short Of remarkable"
Mr.. Eisenhower displayed the
picture. not as an example of
what the U-2 did over Russia,
however, but as a demonstra-
ton Of what could be accom-
plished in his proposed "open
skies" program.
He said he hopes the United
Nations will adopt a recon-
mendation he plans to submit
"at an appropriate time" that
lit operate reconnaissance
planes over both the United
States and Russia to insure
both countries against surprise
attack from the other.
! If the U. N. should under

ton. No hearing date was set
MI. Lesinski is the author OF
the bill.
The commission did not in
dorse Mr.. LeSinski's bill in full,
but suggested some modifica-
tions. The csc proposal, how
ever, would result in consider
able liberalization.
At present, employees pro-
NOTED from one grade to an
other merely are guaranteed
the step in the new grade
which is next higher in salary
than the amount they received
ip~ the old grade. Thus, the
immediate impact of the pro-
motion in terms of higher SAL
ary is very slight. Sometimes
the pay raise amounts to only
q few dollars.
The Lesinski bill would guar
antee employees a salary raise
representing the difference ir
amount between the first ster
Of their old grade and the first
step Of the new grade.
The CSC proposal woulc
guarantee employees two addi-
tional steps in the new grade
above what they would gel
from the present system. Ir
other words, the csc formula
would be the step in the new
grade which is higher in sal.
ary than the amount received
insthe old grade, plus two ad'
ditional steps.
Here is an example of thu
present system and how i
would be affected by the Lesin'
ski bill and by the csc pro,
poSal:
An employe is in step sever
of grade 5. earning $4,940 {
year. If he Is promoted II
grade 7, under the present sys'
tepa he would be placed in steI
! of grade II the step in thI
new grade nearest in salary Il
his old salary in the lowe
grAde). Since step / of grade
7 pays $4,9S0 a year, this woulC
amount to only an immediate
$40 pay raise.
Under the LesinSki bill. the
enploye would get the differ,
ence between the first step oi
grade 5 (his old grade), which
is 5000, and grade Z (his new
grade), which is $4,980. Thi,
wguld amount to a pay raise ol
$s4O.
Under the CSC proposal, the
ernploye would be placed two
steps higher in grade z tnan hi
would under present law. Thus
instead of receiving a salary
based on step one of grade 7
he would be placed in steI
thfee of grade which pay'
$500 a year. This would NEAR
q Taise of $340 over his pre-.
vieus salary of $4,940 a year.
1t'S safe to assume that l.
and when Congress acts OF
liberalizing promotion pay, !
will adopt the csc proposal
This is expected to represent {
satisfactory compromise to Mr.
Lesinski and his group. 1t may
be- offered as an amendment X
the 8 per cent pay raise bill
when it comes up for HOUSE
action.
