Jolt of Dutch Courage Downs Power-Drunk Soviet


countrymen without regard
for their personal wishes, as
though they were all crimi-
nails or minority nation
alities, must certainly have
found it difficult to think
that several Dutch policemen
should stop him from doing
as he pleased with one or
two other Soviet citizens. The
fact that the Ambassador
possessed the colossal au-
dacity to lead a goon-squad
invasion of a Dutch police
office should come as no
great surprise to Netherland-
erS or, to the rest of us. 1t
is most interesting that the
only item of value which Mr..
Ponomarenko feels he lost
in the melee is a button!
(In all fairness. this is a
valuable item in the Soviet
Union.)
AS for the Dutch police
man who saw fit to bop Mr..
Ponomarenko on the pro-.
boscis, perhaps one can say
that millions of people the
world over felt as though
that punch was deservingly
delivered on their behalf.
Probably even some Soviet
citizens in the USSR, if they
ever manage to learn that
a Dutch policeman glanced
a hooker off the snout OF
a Soviet official, will be
gladdened in their hearts
that somewhere on Dutch
soil there bloomed, for at
least one day. the result OF
a unique blow for peace and
friendship.
The Soviet Foreign Office,
as is we'll known, can live
down anything, but surely
there were red faces upon
their learning that the Soviet
Unions distinguished AmbaS-
sador to The Hague gave an
impromptu performance at
the Amsterdam airport with
all the grace of an enraged
bear chasing a pigeon up
and down a windmill.

YugosIov Plane Deal

For many decades the
American people have been
spending billions of dollars,
almost to the risk of ma
tional impoveriShment, to
build up and bring back to
normal operation the econo-
mics Of nations whom we had
defeated on the battlefield
and who were our enemies in
two world wars. Have we now
come to the incredible reck-
leSSneSS of providing our po-
tential enemies with planes
beforehand, and inviting them
to send men to our own
country for training, so that
they can help to destroy us
in these very planes in the
event of war?
The American people
should demand that the Yu-
goslav pilots now in training
at the Perrin Air Force Base
in Texas be sent home at
once and the plane deal can
celed, whereby we are to give
to the Tito government for
$4,000 each 1870 F-86 D Sabre
jet fighters - planes which
cost us $343,000 each. No
matter how obsolete we may
consider the planes, Tito ap-
parently does not.
1t is instances of this kind,
which the American public
knows nothing about until
they are a fait accompli that
help to depreSs the public
morale to the low ebb it has
now reached, because we fear
the enemy within" whom we
know~not even more than Mr..
Khrushchev, who tells in
plain language his intent to
bury us and conquer the
world.
We can only pray to God
to preserve us from the stu
pidity Ito use a kinder word

selling this and other such
programs to our Government.

These matters we're brought

The recent antics of the
Soviet Ambassador to the
Netherlands may well be a
classic case where a Soviet
functionary, in his panic, had
temporarily forgotten that he
was not in his Soviet
.motherland. Ambassador Po-
nomarenko has welded quite
a bit of power in pushing
people around in the Soviet
Union and he may well have
lapsed into some unforgiv-
able moments of old-fash-
ioned home-style crudity.
whereby he assumed that
what is accepted as perfectly
natural in the Soviet Union
is also accepted as natural
in the Netherlands.
The Ambassador, it must
be remembered, has served
in Sovietized Kazakhstan in
a post which involved the
forced migration of persons
. from the Western parts of
the Sovet Union to the
miserable virgin - lands. "

ridiculous. He is a Commu-
mist. He is not on the side of
the West and never has been.
The United States has
given Yugoslavia more than
81 billion since the end of
World War II. The Belgrade
meeting finally must have
convinced everyone where
Tito stands and what the
United States has received in
return for all it has given
nothing; no friendship, no
support, no thanks. It has
been reliably reported that
right now Tito is allowing
Russian engineers to build
on YugoSlav soil II missile
bases aimed at the West.

Senators and congressman.
President Kennedy insisted
that YugoSlavia be permitted
to receive a large amount of
the foreign aid voted by the

the State Department now
say that probably Yugoslavia
will not receive any new aid,
but that commitments al
ready made will be carried
out. This means that for at
least another year our tax
payers will be sending mon
ey, food and equipment to a

Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhow-
er is again being drafted by
the Republicans as their lead
er. He has shown himself vi
tally interested in building a
strong progressive -conserva-
tive Republican Party the
kind of party he advocated
during his eight years as
President. More and more his
leadership of the G. o.. P.
has become evident in recent
months. Never was his popu-
larity with the people more
evident than during ms Tues
day campaign in New Jersey
for the election of his for
mer Secretary of Labor,
James P. Mitchell. Early this
year Republican leaders in
Congress and in many of the
States began visiting Gen. Eli
Senhower at his home in Get
tysburg. There were frequent
conferences with him regard
ing the position the Repub-
licans should take toward the
Kennedy administration and
Mr.. Kennedy's policies and
programs before Congress.
Calls Eisenhower Leader
Now that former Vice Presi-
dent Nixon. the presidential
candidate in 1860, has an
nounced that he will run for
Governor of California next
year and that he has no in
tention of becoming a candi-
date for the presidential
nomination in 1864, the much
tortured question as to who
heads the Republican Party
has settled down to Gen Eli
senhower, in the minds of
many Republicans. The gen.
eral. himself, has restated the
traditional idea that the titu-
lar head of the Republican
Party is its last presidential
candidate. The chairman of
the Republican National
Committee. Representative
Miller of New York, has come
around to a different view,
according to reports from
California where he was in
terviewed on Tuesday. The
chairman gave as his opinion
that Mr.. Nixon has virtually
taken himself out Of the po-
Sition of national and titu-
lar leader of the party by
his course in California. And
he added that in his opinion
former President Eisenhower
stands as the symbol of lead
ership for the Republicans.
Up to this point the three
outstanding possibilities for
the Republican presidential
nomination in l964-Mr. Nix
on. Gov. Nelson A. Rockefel-
Ter of New York and Sena-
tor Barry Goldwater of Ari-
Zona - have been variously
regarded as the most impor-
tant figures in the party to-
day. They still remain poten-
tial candidates for the pres
idential nomination - even
though Mr.. Nixon has an
nounced his plan which will
keep him busy next year in
the California campaign.
Originally 1t had been Mr..
Nixon'S plan not to run for
Governor of California but to
become the national spokes-
man for the G. o. p, cam
paigning for Republican can
didateS in many States. This
has all gone down the drain.
If he wins in California, how
ever, he will bound back
strongly as an important fig
ure in the party. While he
has said he does not want a
draft or the presidential
nomination, he might be sub
ject to one. However, the fact
he was defeated by President
Kennedy in 1860 might con-
tinue to be an obstacle to his
denomination. This is eSpe-
cially true if Gov. Rockefel-
Ter is reelected as Chief Ex-
ecutive of the Empire State
next year. AS of today the

Eisenhower Again Drafted bye. O.P.

New Workers. chances appear
good. The Democrats in New
York have found no strong
candidate to oppose him, nor
are they likely to try to Sc
lect a candidate until some
time after the mayoralty elec-
ton in New York next month.
The question of who leads
the Republican Party when
the White House is held by
the Democrats has been a
subject of debate on many
occasions in the past. When
former President Herbert
Hoover was defeated for re-
election in 1882, he was the
victim of a deep depression
in this country, for which he,
himself, was in no way re-
sponsible. But this depression
was the basis of campaign
after campaign by the Demo-
Gratis headed by the late
President Franklin D. Roose-
velt. Mr.. Hoover, while always
highly respected, was not re-
garded as the party leader
and took little part in par
ty affairs after his defeat.
The new group of Republican
leaders included Thomas E.
Dewey of New York, the late
Senator Robert A. Taft of
Ohio, the late Senator Ar
thur Vandenberg of Michi-
gan, and former Gov. Harold
E. StaSsen of Minnesota,
Wendell Willkie Of Indiana
emerged in 1910 as the
G. o. P. nominee for Presi-
dent after a spectacular drive
which left the others behind.
But his leadership had short
Shrift. For a brief period he
sought denomination but
failed dismally. Thereafter
Mr.. Dewey, three times elect
ed Governor of New York,
became the dominant figure
in the party and was twice
nominated for President. He
was challenged again and
again by Senator Taft, by
Senator Bricker, by Gov.
Warren, Gov. Stassen and
others, but never lost his grip
on party affairs. Then came
Gen. Eisenhower.
Leadership In Congress
For some time it has been
argued that the real leader
ship of the party is to be
found in Congress during
these periods when the Re-
publican Party does not have
a President. Indeed, the Re-
publicans in Congress in both
periods, even though in a mi
nority position. have been re-
garded as making the issues
on which to campaign against
the Democrats. Even today
this is true to a certain ex-
tent, and under the leader
ship of sentative
Charles Halleck of Indiana
in the House and Of Senator
Everett M. Dirkson in the
Sen a tie, the policy-making
still continues. One difficulty,
however. has been to keep all
the RepublicanS-liberals and
conServativeS-in line.
Gen. Eisenhower apparent
ly has accepted his latest
draft by the G. o. P. with en-
thusiaSm. His present aim is
to bring about the election of
a Republican Congress and of
many Republican Governors
next year. When it comes to
1864 he may also have con-
siderable influence on the
selection of a Republican
presidential candidate.

first real slump of the season

now it's here-and it's a pip.
After losing as many as three

of first place by losing five
straight, dropping two games
behind Cincinnati with a 81,

Until they forced the extra
