What Is Meaning?

The Nixon suggestion tipped
Mr.. Rockefeller off balance. The
best the Governor could do was to
reply that he would not be willing
to interrogate the Vice President
until he, Mr.. Nixon. spoke out
with precision on the issues.
Observers are still trying to
figure out why the Governor did
what he did.
Does he really believe that he,
by his own actions, can bar the
Republican Presidential nomina-
ton to Mr.. Nixon and win it him
self? Will he formally announce
his candidacy?
Was he merely trying to en-
liven the Republican campaign
and make the party stronger by
injecting healthy debate?
Is he aiming at weakening Mr..
Nixon so that he, Mr.. Rockefeller,
will have another, better chance
in 1864?
While the Governors motiva-
ton remains a mystery, there is
no doubt that he has stirred glee
in Democratic ranks and gloom
among Republicans. many of
whom cannot see how their party
will be helped when two of its top
leaders go to war with barely more
than a month before convention
time.
But there is doubt that the lib
eral Mr.. Rockefeller has advanced
his future in the party. The Re-
publican National Committees res
olution, adopted Friday and stating
the party's praise of the Eisen-
hower-Nixon leadership, was a
clear rebuke to the Governor.
Time may heal all wounds in love
and war, but politics is something
else again. AS William S. White.

Last week it began. According
to the New York Times, Arthur M.

jr.; Henry Steele Commager and
John K. Galbraith, eggheads all,
have prepared a letter urging
others to join the Kennedy band
wagon because he is the Democrat
most likely to be able to defeat
Vice President Nixon.
Later in the week another fac
ton was heard from. Mrs. Flea
nor Roosevelt and Mrs. Agnes
Meyer took the lead. They called
for the nomination of Mr.. Steven
son for President and Mr.. Ken
nedy for Vice President.
Just to thicken the plot a bit,
Mr.. Stevenson issued a statement
asserting that he and Mr.. Ken
nedy are in agreement as to what
the Nations foreign policy should
be
Does Mr.. Stevenson want Mr..
Kennedy to share the cool re-
action to the former Illinois Gov
ernor's criticism of the admin
iStration in connection with the
summit debacle? Is he contem-
plating a statement confirming
what most observers are con-
vinced is the case-namely, that
he is available for a draft" for
the nomination? Or is he con-
sidering a genuine surpriSe-a

THE FOREIGN SCENE
7heArms RuceIssue
One That Won't Die

The donation special COM
mission on disarmament recon-
vened at Geneva on Monday.
Up for consideration was the
latest Soviet proposal, made on
June 2, for immediate abandon
ment of the means of delivery
of nuclear weapons.
When President Woodrow Will
son drew up his famous Four
teen Points as basis for ending
THE War to End Wars" (World
War u he included as one major
premise general disarmament. :"
Most of the essence of Wilson'S S
Fourteen Points evaporated in the
practical political deals of the
Paris Peace Conference. But the
principles lived on, at least as
ideals. and they vanished at last
as so many ideals do, in the two
decades when revanchist nation
alism, under the swastikaS and
banners of fascism of various
types, made the Wilsonian pro-
gram a forlorn dream.
Disarmament was continuing
concern of the old League of Nat
ions all during the 20s and 30S.
In some limited fields, there was
even a bit of progress toward a
limitation of ornaments and an
agreed-upon ratio of defense
forces.
But in the main, the analogy
once described by Spain'S articu-
late Salvador de Madariaga pre-
vailed. King Alfonso Kills rep
resentative at the League of
Nations suggested one day that the
lion. at a jungle disarmament
conference, would abolish the
hooveS of the elephant. The ele-
hant, in his turn, would prohibit
the teeth of the lion. Each par
ticipant was eager and willing to
prescribe the weapons of his
natural adversary.

ment, bringing its total recon-
mendatiOn to S40.3 billion or 81
billion more than the adminis-
tratiOn has requested.
Ever since President Eisen-
hover announced that he had
ordered a halt to further U-2
reconnaissance flights over the
Soviet Union, there has been talk
in Congress of rushing develop
ment of so-called spy satellites.
Although the administration has
preferred to stand pat on its de-
fense budget, the talk has in
creased. Last week, the Senate
Appropriations Committee, clearly
rejecting concern over the loss
of the U-2 program, took action.
1t voted 1888 million more than
the Eisenhower request of 5000
million for the Samof satellite.
There is a good chance that
the Senate will back it's COM
mittee on this item and that
when the defense budget goes to
a Senate-House conference it will
be accepted.
The. U-2 was perhaps the most
successful long-term intelligence
gathering program ever carried
out by the United States. Vital
data on Soviet missile production
and bases, bomber and air defense
sites, submarine pens, etc., was
obtained by these high flying
planes.
The UPS even got pictures Of
Soviet interceptor fighters vainly
trying to reach and destroy them.
But now what Soviet technology
could not do in four years-tind
a way to bar the U-2'S from flying
over the USSR-haS been done by
White House order as a result Of
unfortunate circumstances.
Evening star., 1960-06-12
Keeping Guard

Few persons argue that the
U-2 flights should be. continued.
But many believe We must speed
development of other systems of
gathering intelligence behind the
Iron Curtain if we are to guard
against the always present missile
age threat of surprise, nuclear
attack. An increase in funds for
SamoS, which could be ready in
three or four years as an opera
tional system. could provide cne
valuable means.
Some of the other additions
made by the Senate Senate COM
mittee are likely to face more
of fight. Even though Secre-
tary of State Hertar and Defense
Secretary Gates have declared
that they fear new probing efforts
by international communism, final
approval by Congress of a new
conventionally powered aircraft
carrier, the Navy's own No. l
priority item and a formidable
limited war weapon, is by no
means assured.
One of the major reasons for
failure of the House to support
the carrier development program
is the implacable opposition Of
Representative Cannon, Missouri
Democrat.
AS chairman of the House APP
propriations Committee, Mr.. Can
non is an extremely powerful
man in Congress. He dislikes ad-
mirals with a passion. He cannot
understand the need for carriers
and so his opposition to them is
not normal, vigorous opposition.
1t is almost fanatical.
The Navy sees more hope this
year. however At stake is con-
ventionally powered ship, not a
more expensive nuclear one. This
may help the Senate conferees to
persuade their House colleagues.
If they are successful, the ad-
ministration is committed to 60
ahead with the program. The
S35 million voted by Congress
for long-lead time items for a
nuclear carrier last year was never
spent because Mr.. Eisenhower
