Diem Seeking
Popular Support

SAIGON, Wet Nam, Dec. 20
(AP).-President Ngo Dinh
Diem, who last month crushed
an attempt to overthrow his
government, is mixing more
among the people in an at
tempt to build up his popu.
larity.
For the second straight day
the President visited factories
yesterday and spoke to the
workers. He told employees at
a battery plant and a tooth
paste factory that labor legis-
lation in South Wet Nam is
regarded as the most advanced
in the newly developed coun-
tries.
Supporters Of MIR. Diem are
making elaborate plans for
nationwide celebrations on the
Presidents 60th birthday jan
uary 8. Mr.. Diem will preside
at a palace ceremony when
5000 youths will pledge their
loyalty to him.

Nikita Khrushchev is tell
ing the world over the air
waves that he's against colon
ialism. He's boasting about
his support of the United Ma.
tions resolution, adopted a
few days ago, which prociaimS
the necessity Of bringing to
a speedy and unconditional
end colonialism in all its
forms and manifestations"
But, oddly enough, the So
Wet Premier never says a
word about the colonialiSm
imposed by Moscow behind
the Iron Curtain. He piously
declares:
IF the colonial powers coSt
aside the U. N. resolution
continue to obstruct the hD-
Grafton of subjugated peoples
and oppose their independ-
ence, then these peoples will
be left with only one choice
that of carrying out a deci-
sive struggle to sweep away
all obstacles put in their
path. And they will not be
alone in that struggle"
Mr.. Khrushchev's argu.
ment against colonialism is
transparently hypocritical,
but what is surprising is that
spokesmen for the free world
do not seem to take him up
vigorously on the issue. Even
in the United Nations, there
seems to be inertia among
Western diplomats when it
come to delivering attacks on
the colonialiSm of the Soviet
Union.
Maybe It's time for these
same Western diplomats and
representatives in the U. N.
to read over a speech de-
livered on May 18, 1851. by
Dean Rusk, who was at that
time Assistant Secretary Of
State for Far Eastern Affairs
and who now has been desig-
mated by President-elect Ken
nedy to be the new Secre-
tary of State. Mr.. Rusk said
in part:
"The freedoms of the Chi
nese people are disappearing.

This argument is made
largely by appeasers but also
to some extent by misguided
people who think that the
end justifleS the meanS-they
are willing to try to appease
Moscow and Peiping and hope
to get some minor concessions
as the price Of admission Of
Red China to the U. N.
On televiSion q few nights
ago, Arthur SchleSinger, jr.,
one of the PreSident-elect's
principal advisers, said that
admission of Red China to
the U.N. is a reasonable
price" to pay for a disarma-
ment agreement with the
Soviet Union and Red
China. This is the begin
ming Of a new series of ar
guments designed to make
Americans believe that the
word Of the Chinese Com
muniSts and the word Of the
Russian Communists can be
trusted in any disarmament
agreement. Unfortunately,
risks Of this kind have been
taken before. and have end
ed in disaster. This time a
nuclear catastrophe could
result, which would be far
worse in its consequences
than any diplomatic mistake
made In the past.
This is why many Ameri-

when the Soviet Union was
first established in 1917.
While the tactics of the fol-
lowers of Lenin have been
changed over the years to fit
new situations, basic STRAIT
egy and goals have never
been changed. The funda-
mental objectives of feminist
doctrine have been spelled
out even more clearly and
more bluntly than those in
Hitler's "Mein Kampf." And
they appear to be far more
successful in their achieve
ments than was the Nazi
dictator.
The first real Communist
state was created in Russia
after Lenin took over from
the weak democratic .doctri-
naire, Alexander Kerensky.
But even at that time the
Bolshevik leaders realized
that their major goals would
not be accomplished unless
a vast portion of Asia bowed
to their philosophy. At the
Congress of Baku in 1920,
attended by delegates from
all over the world, Grigori
Zinoviev, one of Lenin's close
associates, stated: "The real
revolution will blaze up only
when 800 million people who
live in Asia unite with us,
when the African continent
unites, when we see hundreds
Of millions Of people are in
movement. Now we must
kindle a real holy war against
the British and the French
capitalists. We must say that
the hour has struck when the
workers Of the whole world
are able to arouse tens and
hundreds Of millions of peas
ants to create a Red Army
in the East"
Forty years ago these fiery
words were CLOSED over as
mere :.pipe dreams" and the
thought was freely expressed
that Zinoviev himself did not
believe what he was saying.
But the weakness of the gen.
uine democracy which Ke-
rensky was so anxious to es-
tablish in RuSsia-and which
lost Russia to the Commu-

1896 when it had the distinc-

the United States which was

by Angel Ramirez. Known to

been a waiter for more than
40 years. Out Of his great

not jade the appetite with

Harvard Prof. Arthur
SchleSingef. jr., answering
questions from a number of
reporters last week on a ma
tional TV network, said we
must forget the prejudices of
the last 10 years concerning
Communist China and find
ways and means of dealing
with the Peiping government.
He emphasized that univer-
sal disarmament as a major
first step to world peace can
not be accomplished while
the Asian Communist empire
is not brought into the con-
cert of international gather
ingS.
DR.. Schlesinger's words
cannot be regarded as mere
personal expression. Although
he emphasized that he spoke
only as q private American
citizen and student Of history,
he is one of the main advis-
ers Of President-elect Ken
nedy and also is one Of the
intimate friends and admir-
ers of two other men who
will be policymakers in the
next administration; Adlai
Stevenson, Ambassador -des-
ignate to the United Nations,
and Undersecretary- designate
Chester Bowles. Both men
have expressed themselves IA
Vorably toward a .moduS vi
vendi with Communist China.
So have a number of other
important Democratic mem
bers Of the Senate who are
expected to have the ear of
Mr.. Kennedy after he takes
office.
That professional politi-
clans should take this stand
is only natural these days.
when principles are so often
sacrificed to expediency. But
it is surprising that a his
torian. of DR.. Schlesinger's
caliber makes such off-the-
cuff remarks to those who
listen to him with the re-
spect due his reputation.
The problems Of the United
States and Of the shrinking
free world stem all, without
exception. from the activities
Of communism, which is en-
deavoring to spread its ten
tacles from its locally-h

that he cares to accept de-

The response so far to the
Kennedy strategems has been
good. He has given away
nothing yet Of real substance.
The new Vice President gets
a chance to show executive
brilliance in space matters,
but responsibility still rests
with the new President.

aides who did so much to

Johnson Getting Squared Away

Only by constitutional
amendment can the Vice
President escape by right
from the narrow confines the
Constitution outlines for him.
Anything else must come by
presidential favor, which has
always been q sometime
thing.
It is fair to add that SEN
ator johnson Is O staff man
and knows how to get the
best results from one. He Is
responsive to ideas but slow
to read and reflect. which are
the indispensable conditions
for creating them. Details
bore him despite the care he
takes, in his own phrase, ito
touch all the bases" once he
has decided on a plan of
action.
Mr.. Kennedy has shown
an understanding Of Senator
johnson and has often be-
trayed a wry amusement at
johnson operations when di-
rected at others, not Mr..
Kennedy.
Further evidence that the
Johnsons expect to be ex-
tremely busy In the next few
years comes from the wom-
ems pages, with word that
Mrs. johnson has appointed
as her own press secretary,
Mrs. Tyler Abel. daughter
Of the Senator's close friend,
former Senator Clements Of

vation, but Mrs. johnson, of
course, is not merely the
wife Of the Vice President

In past years the seating room
has been somewhat of a problem
so this year there has been an
additional 800 seats built to take
care of the large crowds that are
anticipated. 1t will give fair goers
an advantageous position to view
the thrilling events that fill the

for the affair. The first day the

music. Monday, August 20, is also
Range Rider Day, a day when all
those that were in the Saddle
riding the range before 1910 will
meet and talk over the good old
days, when pardner there just
weren't any modern paved roads
and such.
The opening day, Monday, Au-
gust 20, will get started with a
parade. The Epping High School
band will furnish music for the
parade. Many folks that have
wondered if there will be music
this year can be assured that band
music will be of the best and at
all performances.
Tuesday the Fairview band is
scheduled to furnish music. The
Fariview band is classed with the
top music organizations and fair
goers will get a real treat when
they hear this splendid music
group.
Wednesday the Sidney band will
play for music lovers. The Sidney
band is also in the class with the
other bands and listed as one of
the best music groups of the state.

Fair is well prepared to give pat
