Around the naked detail Of
this morbid. sordid narrative,
Bergman weayes his parable Of
good and evil. Against the
swampy. oozy wilderness that
is his setting, he juxtaposes Q
moral wilderness even more
terrifying.
The beauty and innocence
that are Karin's are doomed

defenselessness that invites her
rape and murder by the wan

Yet for all the harshness OF
her fate and its brutal injustice,
Karin is the perfect Bergman
heroine. ..

Mr.. Udall had grasped the
politics Of the situation with
laudable speed. but he has
not yet the national stature
to put across an Ickes-style

Mr.. Nixon also is urging
his friends in Congress to
limit their commitments to
any Kennedy solution. Thus
he personally is in a position
to play it either way, depend
ing on the shape Of the issue

Senator Javits of New York,

to deliver an appeal for Re

Cuban issue. How much-or
how little-backing he gets in
the ensuing debate will be
revealing. He at least will

That Mr.. Kennedy should

Mr.. Kennedy, who fought his
own war for the Presidency
so harshly and we'll, seems
reluctant to recognize that
the American President can
not escape even worse polit-
ical wars. especially when
the tide seems to be against
him. A major blunder has
been made, he is admirably
ready to accept responsible
ity and to investigate.
But for survival purposes,
there is no advice compar-
able to that Of the Civil War
General who attributed his
own successes to his ability
to get there fustest with the

The grand seigneurs who
head the congressional COM

the many plushy rewards of
White House power. But ap-
parently they need some
kind of carrot or stick to
persuade them to undertake
the effort to keep the ad-
ministration off the defen-
sive.
1t is clear to Mr.. Nixon
among others that it is des-
tined for that unenviable
position, so frustrating to
executive energies. His sensi-
tive political antenna quick

cerned with collusion and

prices as such. He added:
Il can conceive of q num-
ber of different. instances
where you have identical
pricing which wouldn't be
illegal or improper.
The surrounding factors
are proper subjects for exam
nation by the Department Of
Justice in each case because,
as Chief Justice Warren said
in the Watkins case on June
II, 1857, a congressional
committee has certain limita-
tions. He wrote in behalf of
the majority Of the court:
Nor is the Congress a law
enforcement or trial agency.
These are functions of the
Executive and Judicial De-
partmentS of Government"
UnqueStionably. some in
dividuals and companies will
get some unfavorable pub
licity, but the underlying
purpose of a congressional
committee is to find out what
happened so that new legis-
lation or amendments to
existing laws may be enacted.
Painful as it may be to the
persons who are pilloried in
public, this is the best way
Congress can learn what hap
pens when biguouSly
phraSed laws and even more
perplexing phrases of court
decisions are proclaimed as
the law Of the land"
Only by thorough inquiry
can the facts of antitrust and
monopoly be fully exposed.
The same holds true of laws
affecting national security,
subversion or infiltration.
Whatever mistakes the elec-
trical companies executives
may have made, they didn't
question the right of the
committee to investigate, and
they certainly didn't take the
Fifth Amendment or the
First Amendment. Nor did
they instigate college profess
sors to demand the "aboli-
ton" of the committee. Nor
did they encourage student
demonstrations throughout
the country. They just took
it on the chin. And what
they did may turn out to be
in the interest of a clarifi-
cation and perhaps strength
ening Of the antitrust laws,
especially in the uncertain
field Of price-fixing.

Evening star., 1961-04-27

The first three months Of
the Kennedy administration
have come to an end with
America at its lowest ebb in
many years so far as interna-
tional prestige is concerned.
Mistakes have followed mis-
takes.
While the Chief Executive
has assumed sole responsible
ity for what has happened in
at least three corners of the
world, there is no doubt that
his intimate advisers have
more than an equal share of
responsibility. These men, al
most without exception, are
learned and studious econo-
miStS, historians and Scien-
lists who have been able to
deliver splendid lectures to
their admiring students or
who have written books and
magazine articles winning
plaudits from many intellec-
tuals and book reviewers. But
most of them have lived. rel
atively speaking, in the ivory
tower of theory and have as
sociated principally with 9TH
er people who shared their
theoretical thinking. Diplo-
macy and affairs of state,
these days in particular, re-
quire a sense of sometimes
ruthless reality. Perhaps the
uneducated Nikita Khru-
Shchev could serve as the best
example of what modern
diplomacy must cope with.
In the three months since
Mr.. Kennedy took office amid
the loud approval, not only
of the American people, but
also Of the rest of the world,
we have lost more ground in
ternationally than in the last
10 years. Mr.. Kennedy. en-

business policies, Henry Ford
noted the evidence of COL
lusion between some unions
and some management. He
said of Walter Reuther's
UAW, that the Ford Motor
Co. has developed a genuine
respect for the determination
" Of UAW leadership to keep
that union. which represents
Ford's hourly employees, free
from corruption"
At no point did he init
mate that business abandon
the real benefits Of vigor-
Gus competition. At least two
paragraphs of his develop
ment of this point are worth
quoting.
Freedom to compete, to
differ, to dissent, to criticize,
to urge change - these all
are a cherished part Of our
heritage as Americans, of
the values that we seek to
defend against the on
slaught Of communism" he
said.
But there Is a difference
between the kind of earnest,
healthy, rational debate that
forwards Americas interests
indeed, is essential to the
workings Of the American
system-and the kind Of in
ternal warfare that can
weaken IT,"
It is good to hear so pro-
minent q figure Of American
industry speak so plainly.
Some one must speak for
America above the clamor of
the divisive Birch Society

Councils, Of the anti-Semitic

Perhaps one is wrong to
read studied contempt for
dull-witted affirmations of
outmoded shibboleths in his
sharp criticism of those pun
dts who have been suggesting
that "the honeymoon" be-
tween business and the Ken
nedy administration is over.
But, to some, this conclusion
seemed implicit in the
strength Of his words.

More and more economists,
industrialistS, financierS and
businessmen are beginning to
see that unless the many
competing, special interest,
pressure groups which make
up a free society. can volun-
tarily associate all the energy
they can muster, we may lose
without war. In the goth
