that the decisions made after
careful deliberation are al
ways the best; for he will
never know what would have
happened if he had made the
opposite decision.
IT IS NOT MY argument
that there are no moral pTin-
ciples which have a relevance
in politics. In every political
decision there is a better Tor
BEST way of applying ones
principles to the solution of
a problem. But this better
way is not necessarily obvi-
Gus. The exercise Of the virtue
of prudence in the tangled
world of human government
is bound to be a tricky and
subtle art.
There are times, of course,
when compromise becomes
impossible. Thoma More
could compromise with Henry
VIII longer than most men,
but there was a point beyond
which he could not go. There
are evils that are so bad that
nothing justifies their tempo
rary liberation. There is cor
ruption and dishonesty aplen-
ty in political life which the
honest politician must fight
with all his strength. But his
problems are not helped by
simpIists in the electorate
who proclaim that all COM
promise is immoral.

hill before your sled stopped and
the walk began. One of the

For Talks

MOSCOW, Feb. 8 tAP).-
President Giovanni Gronchi Of
Italy arrived today for a six.
day state visit to the Soviet
Union. He was greeted at the
airport by Premier Nikits
Khrushchev and later met with
the Russian leader in his Krem-
lin office.
An Italian source said the
visitor, his wife and son and
Foreign Minister Giuseppe Pella
will visit Mr.. Khrushchev's
country house outside Moscow
tomorrow. The Italian party
will drive out to the Dacha
after attending morning mass
at the only Roman Catholic
Church in Moscow.
The trip to the Dacha will
take the place of a tour of
construction projects.
This is the first visit to
Russia by an Italian chief of
state in So years.
Besides the talk with Mr..
Khrushchev at the Soviet Pre-
mler's ottice-a courtesy visit
attended by a number of So
Wet and Italian officials-Mr.
Gronchi attended a dinner in
the Kremlin given by President
Klementi Voroshilov.

Soviet Premier Khrushche,
now appears determined tc
build up a new If limited Ber-
| lin crisis in advance of the
May summit conference. His
aim seems to brighten and di-
vide the Western powers ano
break down their position in
West Berlin.
Mr.. Khrushchev could carry
his pressure strategy to the
point where President Eisen-
hover would feel compelled to
reconsider whether he should
attend the summit meeting
United States officials believe.
The President has repeatedly
declared he would not negoti-
ate under threat. officials ex-
pect Mr.. Khrushchev to stop
short of this point.
Limit Is Foreseen
Summit conference plans
would be in jeopardy, author
tiles said, if Premier Khru-
shchev-having already revived
his threat of a separate East
German peace treaty-should
also reinstate some kind of
deadline for the West to
abandon Berlin or risk a Com
munist squeeze to force them
out.
At the White House and State
Department, officials believe Mr..
Khrushchev does not want to
jeopardize a summit conference.
But most Of them also believe
he is trying to use his advan-
tage in nuclear missile power
to achieve diplomatic victories.
About the time the summit
conference ends. the Russians
should have a al lead in in
tercontinental ballistic missiles
ready for firing. A year later,
the Soviet lead over the United
States has been estimated at
81. although the administra-
ton lately has indicated this
may be scaled down.
Eisenhower administration
leaders insist there is no real
danger that the Khrushchev
regime would use its greater
missile capability to start a war
in view of United States power
to strike back.
Yet they also expect Mr..
Khrushchev to use his advan-
tage increasingly in a deter
mined and perhaps dangerous

Outlined Last Summer :
The land program was out
lined last summer by Peiping's

others who remained neutral
will be taken over later. Mean
