Army Denies
Intent toCensor
BY the Associated Press

The Army blames IAN over
jealous technician" at Fort
Monmouth, N. j., for making
changes in press copy sent
through the Courier satellite.
Representative Moss, Democrat
of California, had called the
changes censorship.
Mr.. Moss is chairman Of the
House Government Informa-
ton Subcommittee. He wrote
Secretary of the Army Brucker
in connection with a story that
William Hines, science writer
for The Washington Evening
Star, had written to be relayed
through the satellite communi-
cations system.
In the last paragraph of the
story Mr.. Hines wrote that the
transmission was somewhat Of
a stunt, but nevertheless was an
intriguing operation.
Mr.. Moss told Mr.. Brucker
that Signal Corps personnel at
Fort Monmouth deleted that
sentence, substituting a state
ment that "this historical ex-
pertinent in news-broadcasting
may we'll be the forerunner of
tomorrow's mode of communi-
cation" Mr.. Moss commented: {:
This is a shocking example
of the widespread lack Of un-
derstanding within the military
establishment of the function
of free press in our society"
He dem anded that Mr.
Brucker explain the incident.
The Army, in response to
questions, agreed that the cir
cumstances were as described
by Mr.. Moss, and added:
There was no intent to cen
sor' any press material. The
correction of Hines copy was
an error in judgment on the
part of an overzealous techni-
cian."
The Army expressed regrets
and said it has taken steps to
see it doesn't happen again.

A Municipal Court jury for
the second time failed yester-
day to reach a verdict in the

the industrial centers where
unemployment was great,

backgrounds. to the land. 1t
was by no means all theory.
Rural electrification, which
has served not merely to
take the burden Of heavy
work of the backs of farmers
and their wives but to hasten
the agricultural revolution,
was first discussed at Warm
Springs. Mr.. Roosevelt had a
ready ear for those with
ideas. Now and then he an
noyed his staff by listening
to persons with plans re-
garded as impractical. Il
know" he would say, "but
one can never tell when a
sound idea might come
out of it,"
He had a nostalgia for
farming common to many
city dwellers. He, himself,
would never have fitted into
rural life. save in the country
squire manner. But, he was
wise enough to know the
farmer is Americas largest
consumer, and if some Of his
ideas in this field did not
work out, he could not be ac-
cused of standing still and
waiting for something TO
turn up.
The younger voters cannot
conceive of the great depres-
sion. For them it is some
thing on the pages of books
or the stories told by older
men and women. -..
But, at Warm Springs the
Democratic nominee was
identifying himself with one
of the great traditions of his
party. He hopes it will pro-

Senator Kennedy was at
Warm Springs, Ga. in
search Of a political identity
and a key of memory which
he hopes will unlock some of
the Southern doors now
locked against him.
He understandably wishes
to identify himself and his
party with the enduring
image of Franklin D. Roose-
welt and with days and years
of crisis so well and boldly
met. If many Democrats this
year are returning to the
party they left for Mr.. Eisen-
hover, then. perhaps the
presence of the nominee at
Warm Springs will accelerate
them.
It may be, also, that many
Southern farmers and towns
men, too, will be stirred by
old memories and gratitudes.
With Senator Kennedy at
Warm Springs. they cannot
but recall the dread days Of
depression and the blanket
of despair which lay heavily
on homes and hearts until
the ebullient courage and
bold moves of Franklin D.
Roosevelt awakened hope
and restored faith.

They will recall the grim

the oceans the enemy was
near defeat, when the news
came Of Franklin Roosevelt's
death. Men and women all
around the world remembered
then, what they owed him.
In the second of his de-
bates, Senator Kennedy said
that parties do mean some
thing. They offer programs.
1t is not enough to say merely
what is right with America,
he argued, but more impor-
tant, to say that all about us,
in our economy and in our
international affairs, events
testify to a weakening Of our
position.

he tells the voters. do not
vote for me If you think there
is a promise Of a softer,

tically and militarily, to meet
them.
There is in his rapid, stac-
cato words. some of the
urgency and drama of Roose-
welt, even though they lack
the laughter, flexibility and
grace of the Rooseveltian
sentences.

Curbs on U. S. Exports
Cubo Wait 10 DAYS

of the United States products
to Cuba is virtually at rock
bottom. This is due to two
things: The unwillingneSS of
most suppliers to help the econ
omy of the pro- Communist
Cuban government and the
practical fact that most Amer
ican businessmen who used to
ship to Cuba have been paid
nothing on these shipments for
more than a year.
To Protect u. S. Interests
Mum erous persons have
raised the question. why will
the United States formerly
order the new restrictions on
exports in view of the fact
that there is little trade now
and that the order probably
will invite criticism in Latin
America. ..
The answer is that Wash
ington wants to make a record
which will discourage other
countries from trying to defy
the United States in the man
ner done by Prime Minister
Castro.
The new restrictions will for
bid the shipment to Cuba Of
just about everything except
medical supplies and foods
which do not have Government
price supports.
The orders. probably will
have immediate effect upon the
petroleum industry, because the
huge oil ref1nerieS seized by
the Castro regime need Ameri-
can-made replacement parts
and catalysts to process the
'sour" crude oil Cuba now gets
from Soviet Russia.

Despite a number of de-
feats at the United Nations.
Comrade Khrushchev has re-
turned to Sovietland like a
cat that has just swallowed
the canary.
Observers at the U. N. and
elsewhere agree that the be-
havior of this Prime Minister
of one of the worlds great
powers could not be matched
even at a gathering of head
hunter chiefs in Borneo. The
Communists regard dignity
and decorum as neolithic
bourgeois fetish.
Mr.. Khrushchev suffered
rebuffs from the General As
sembly in matters such as the
dismissal of Secretary Gen.
eral Hammarskjold, the re-
organization of the secre-
tariat by the creation of a
presidium in which the Soviet
bloc would have the veto
power, the discussion over the
seating of Communist China,
and so on.
Yet, despite his shameful
antics, Mr.. Khrushchev is
said by observers to have
made an impact, particularly
because he was not officially
censured. His performances.
whether as head of the Soviet
delegation or on a balcony
and the sidewalks of New
York, have stirred world
wide attention and created
front-page news all over the
globe, an important matter
for a propagandiSt.
At the same time he talked
at length to and turned his
charm on the U. N. repre-
sentatives, Mr.. Khrushchev
placed special emphasis on
being a nice, kind Uncle
Nikki to the heads of the
newly created African states.
He also succeeded in consol-
idating the Kremlin's ties
with the supposedly aloof
Yugoslav dictator Tito. After
long conversations, the two
men announced that insofar
as international affairs were
concerned YugoSlavia and the
Soviet Union see eye to eye
on all world problems.

Foes of Communism View Activities
OF Dictator at u. NJ. as Fruitful

The Soviet-Yugoslav ac-
cord must have been a mild
shock to our State Depart
ment, which for some time
had placed the Yugoslav die
tator in the column of friend
ly neutrals. On the very day
when this complete under
standing was made public,
Washington announced that
we had, given YugoSlavia a
100000 atomic reactor. This
is, of course, a drop in the
bucket considering the mill
tary and economic assistance
extended to that Dictator
ship since 1948.
The token gift did not pass
unnoticed by the neutralists
who have been impressed with
the power politics of Uncle
Nikki. They believe now that
they can follow a policy like
that of Ghana and Guinea
dictators Nkrumah and Toure
and yet continue to obtain
economic,and financial bene-
fits from America.
To Mr.. Khrushchev, his
prolonged stay on American
soil-enjoying the neutrality
of the U. N. enclave-was
fruitful, according to the re-
actions of some of the most
determined opponents Of in
ternational communism. He
told heads of important coun-
tries such as Prime Minister
Macmillan that he is still
seeking summit conference.

WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
ACROSS
By WILLIAM MORRIS

Question: Not long ago in
one of your columns you quoted
Winston Churchill's remark
about the rule that sentences
must not end in propositions.
Churchill said: This Is non
sense up with which I will
not put."O Now I recognize
Churchill, besides being one of
the great world statesmen Of
our time. is a noted speaker
and writer. But does this give
him the right to violate rules
by which the ordinary speaker
and writer should be governed?
I seem to remember an old
Latin proverb that fits this
case: Caesar is not above the
grammarians." Is Churchill so
much greater an authority than
Caesar?
Answer: In a word, yes.
Churchill ranks as a far greater
authority on language than the
Caesar (Tiberius Claudius Nero
Caesar about whom that prov
erb was first uttered. AS a
matter of fact the origin of
the expression indicates just
how poor a linguist Tiberius
was.
In the course of an Grafton
he made a grammatical blum
der. After the speech a noted
language expert corrected him,
whereupon a fawning courtier
said that, though the express
sion might not be good Latin
then, it would become so be-
cause the great Caesar had
uttered it. But this was an
swered with the remark that
Caesar could grant citizenship
to men but not to words.
The particular matter of
sentences ending in preposi-
tions, incidentally, is an excel
lent example of the failure of
pedantS to force Latin rules of
grammar on the English Ian
guage. Many decades ago some
scholars noted that Latin SEN
tences never end in preposi-
tions (they can't because, in
Latin, each proposition must
be followed Immediately by its
obJect). So this rule-perfectly
sound for Latin-was applied
to English with the sort of fear
some results which Churchill
so deftly parodied in his "up
with which I will not put"
So end sentences with prep
oSitions if you care to. Just
don't carry it to the ridiculous
extreme of the schoolboy who
asked his young sister: What
did you bring that book for me
to be read to out of for?"
