Michael stood petrified. The

Michael's knees began to treTn-

The Monster took another
step and, abruptly, Michael
found the power to move. He
turned to dive from the cliff.
But never before had he dived
from so great a height and the
sight of the water so far below
terrified him. Between the
Monster and the sea, he did not

They stared entranced at

Moderutes Prevail

But the wisdom of restraint pre-
vailed after the first. ominously
unbridled foray. The White House
and the State Department made
1T clear that any calm, careful
and non-partisan scrutiny of the
making and handling of Ameri-
cas- foreign policy would be well

Senate Committee on Foreign Re-

President Eisenhower set the

dealing with the Soviet Union.

dealings with the Soviet leaders,"

This reasoning explains much
that took place behind the scenes
this past week at the United Ma
tionS.
The propaganda battle over
espionage was only one super

Secretary General Dag HAM

mover in this exercise, though the

Major Premises

Among the points made by the
Secretary in his testimony were.
. ON PARASITIC decision to
wreck the conference was def
mite and brutal and was made
prior to Mr.. KhruShchev's de-
parture from Moscow;
o ON THE U-2-"It is debatable
whether it would have been pos
sible for Mr.. Khrushchev to devise
another pretext" more effective
than the U-2 affair to sabotage
the conference:
- ON SOVIET AIMS-That the
Soviet intention was to isolate the
United States from its allies and
present America to the world as
the major block to peace, an in
tention unrealized because Britain
and France refused to be part
ners to Mr.. KhruShchev'S scheme"
. ON THE FUTURE-"We can
expect continuance of a Soviet
propaganda effort to split off the
United States from its allies :"
that Soviet policy has not changed,
but can be altered swiftly by men
who meet in secret. Thus there
can be mo certainty that it will
remain valid for the future"
. ON U. S. GOALS-To con-
tinue to seek the solution of
existing problems with the Soviet
Union; to foster open communi-
cation and peaceful exchanges:
to avoid actions, statements and
attitudes that might tend un-
necessarily to increase interna-
tional tensions"

For Turkey:
New Regime

Turkish Army units moved
swiftly early Friday to seize
power from Premier Adnan Mem
deres. The successful military
junta pledges free elections.
For 10 years. the government
of Premier Adnan Menderes has
ruled with an increasingly authori-
tartan hand while it sought to
speed Turkish industrialization
and modernization. But harsh
suppression of opposition news
papers and politicians grew harsh
er as the inflationary effects Of
the Menderes economic speedup
brought unrest and dissatisfaction
in the population.
Last month, in protest against
a new law giving special COM
mittee of Parliament almost un-
limited powers to ferret out and
punish opponents of the Premier's
Democratic Party, students in
Ankara and Istanbul began DEM

were scattered by tear gas and

Reply to Critics

The carefully-worded speech was
a general reply to critics of Amer
can policy here and abroad. The
President emphasized his grave
responsibility" for the adequate
defense of the United States and
its allies in explaining what he
called the imperative necessity"
for such intelligence operations
as that of the lll-fsted U-2. He
recalled his 1855 offer of an open
skies" agreement with the Soviet
Union, and said it was still IN
offer.
AS for the failure of the sum-
nit, Mr.. Eisenhower laid full
blame at the door of Mr.. Khru-
shchev. The Soviet leader, he
said, had apparently decided long
before the U-2 incident that my
trip to the Soviet Union should
be Cancelled and that nothing
constructive from their viewpoint
would come out of the summit
conference. Noting that Mr..
Khrushchev had himself stated
that he had long known of the
American spy-plane flights over
Soviet territory, he questioned the
high moral indignation" ex-
pressed by the Soviet chief at
Paris.

THE NATIONAL SCENE
Its Politics Again
Over Summit Issue

Hopes that the post mortems
over the U-2 spy plane incident
could be kept on a nOn-partisan
basis both in Congress and else
where faded last week.
The pleas and promises of non
partisanship in the pre-convention
debate over the administration
handling of the U-2 spy plane and
summitry came thick and fast last
week.
Almost as thick and fast came
the partisan attacks and counter
attacks.
The caution of the preceding
week nearly vanished as the pot
of political gold beckoning at the
end Of the election campaign rain
bow proved irresistible to all but
the wisest and the most patient.
The fact that the mood of the
country had not yet solidified did
not prevent dancing on the vol
cano.
Actually, the opening partisan
salvo was fired 10 days ago by
Adlai E. Stevenson, a man who
would like third chance as DEM
ocratic presidential nominee. He
asserted:
. The Eisenhower administration
gave Premier Khrushchev the
crowbar and sledgehammer he
needed to wreck the summit con-
ference.
Q 1t is impossible for the Repub-
licanS to negotiate successfully
with the USSR.

The WEEK IN PERSPECTIVE
The Wisdom Of Restraint

mittee on Foreign Relations be-
gan an inquiry into the causes
Of the summit conference fail
ure.
Probably no single event in in
ternational affairs and the conduct
Of American foreign relations since
the end Of World War II has
brought as much soul-Searching,
as much sober reappraisal as the
affair Of the U-2 reconnaissance
plane, shot down by the Soviet
Union on May /. Apparently
many thoughtful Americans, re-
gardleSS of political party, were
suddenly aware of the ,perils of
craftsmanship"
After the Paris summit confer
ence collapsed like a punctured
balloon even before it got off the
ground, the widespread consterna-
tion and dismay brought demands
for reappraisal, however agonizing.
Of the shaping and conduct of
American foreign policy. In
evitably. there were direct and
bitter attacks on the administra-
tion's handling of the spy-plane
case, which was the immediate
excuse used by Soviet Premier
KhruShchev to make the Paris
summit meeting a diplomatic dis
aSter.
AS last week began, it appeared
almost certain that the plane in
cident and the summit failure
would spark a nasty political bat
tie in Congress and in the coming
election. The lines we're already
drawn by Monday, when a sharp
skirmish erupted on the Senate
floor. Charges by administration
foes of ineptness and laundering
were countered with blasts from
Republicans couched in phrases of
the worst days of the cold war

Henry Cabot Lodge cited a long
list of espionage cases in the
United States involving Soviet
diplomats and other agents. Dra-
matically, on Thursday he dis
played to the Council a carved
wood reproduction of the Great
Seal OF the United States, which
had been presented by the Rus

gence well until it was discovered.
The Council rejected the Soviet

Britain and France argued that
the sending of an unarmed, glider
type plane over Soviet territory
did not constitute aggression.
While the debate between the big
powers went on, the small and
neutral nations on the Council
sought a compromise.
Friday the 11-nation body
adopted a resolution calling for
renewed efforts toward disar-
mament. The Soviet Union and

ing a backlash against Khru-

full whatever divisive possibilities
the U-2 incident still had within
the free world.
None of this changed the basic
Western thesis that the Presidium
had not irrevocably turned its
back on the West; that to en-
courage and strengthen the Khru-
shchev faction, EaSt-West contact
should be restored. if possible. in
the U. N. and elsewhere, and that
to that end, every available door

From these two acts. and from

UNITED NATIONS, N. V
Western diplomats now have had
two weeks to study Soviet behavior
III the wake of the summit explo-
sion at Paris.
Some of the dust is beginning
to settle. Two highly significant
acts by Premier Khrushchev have
cast light on his motives and prob
able future course of action.
The first was his decision, almost

reserving the threat of eviction as
lever to force new negotiations
at some future time.
Mr.. KhruShchev's second signif-
1cant act was his handling of the
CAT plane which strayed into
East Germany May 20. His deci-
sion to release the passengers and
crew without an effort to extract
Western recognition of the Pan
kow regime was also a sign of

peace, said Mr.. Khrushchev in
Moscow, but "the road to hell is
paved with good intentions and
he will really get there"
In a lengthy address that
seemed to many observers more
of a self f-defense than an attack,
Mr.. Khrushchev commented on
many things. President Eisen-
hover has two jobs, he COM
mented, and the most important
must be golfing. The Security
Council rejected the Soviet de-
mand for censure of the U-2
flight because how could pirates
judge other pirates"
Responsibility for collapse of the
summit talks rests on the United
States alone before the whole
world" The flight of the U-2 was
simply "treachery committed by
the United States" Certain peo-
pie and military circles behind
the Presidents back" were sabo-
tagging sincere American desires
for peaceful coexistence. The Jap
anese-United States security pact
was aimed solely at the Soviet
Union and its great friend, China"
Despite his sarcasm on the golf
ing. the Khrushchev remarks
about Mr.. Eisenhower were gentle.
But he repeated his view that. in
two pre-summit speeches, Mr..
Herter and Mr.. Dillon had made
it plain that a summit success was
impossible. And he assured his
listeners that Deputy Premier
Anastas I. Mikoyan's absence from
Moscow was just a matter of q
vacation.
