President VS.. Proqrum

= There was slightly sharp edge to
President Kennedy'S press conference
remarks about his legislative recon-
mendationS, specifically in the economic
field, that have not yet made their way
through Congress.
Asked about measures, particularly
of long-term nature, for strengthen
ing the economy, the President replied
that "in the first place, I would like to
see the measures that we have suggested
be-paSSed." He added then that I'VE
have not yet secured" passage of bills
torN relief to depressed areas, aid to
dependent children and liberalization of
the social security system. In the same
category, too, are bills for school aid,
for raising and broadening minimum
wage coverage, and for greater Federal
help to housing.
Some of these, Of course, are we'll
along the legislative pipeline and it
would not be correct to say that the
administration overall domestic pro-
gram has aroused undue resistance or is
in-dramatic trouble. By the same token,
neither has it aroused dramatic enthu-
siaSm and this relative lack of emo
tional reaction seems to prevail both in
Congress and around the country. There
has been little or no evidence, for ex-
ample, that congressional SoundingS
back home" during the Easter recess
have sparked any greater sense of
urgency on Capitol HILL
1t is in recognition of this fact,
perhaps, that Democratic National
Chairman Bailey has complained that
there has been breakdown in COM
munications between the grass roots.
and some Of the people in Washington"
AS a true party chieftain, however, Mr..
Bailey is aiming his backf1re at well
disciplined band of Republican obstruc-
tionists and well-financed special
interests s"-possibly unmindful of the
fact that there are healthy Democratic
majoritieS in both branches of the
Congress.
Thus far, of course, Mr. Kennedy,
generally speaking, has used the "velvet
glove (old comrade in CongreSs) STRAIT
egy in dealing with the lawmakers. At
thesSame time, White House advisers no
doubt are aware that the youthful PreSi-
dent himSelf-presenting an image" of
thoughtfulness, dignity and energy
has made a good impression on the
country at large during his nearly three
months in office. The time may be
nearing when Mr.. Kennedy will decide
to test this popularity on behalf of his
own program.

Golf, Anyone?

A line in an Associated Press story
the other day should have set some of
the golf matchmakerS political divi-
sion) to thinking.
Quoting an unidentified golfer who
has played with both Dwight EiSen-
hover and John F. Kennedy, the story
said that both are pleasant golf
companions" and both shoot in the
high 80s-even though Mr. Kennedy
could do better if he played more often.
OF course there are differences in their
style, the AP expert says. Mr.. Eisen-
hover is deliberate, seriously interested
in his score, careful about protocol and
generally accurate down the fairwayS.
Mr.. Kennedy plays like young man in
hurry, more interested in the fun than
the score, often casually oblivious about
protocol and just as likely to hook or
slice as to be straight off the tee.
With all this, the fact that both are
pleasant golf companions" should
tempt matchmaker's imagination.
Have two Presidents, past and present,
ever played golf together? Why not?
The pleasant personal relationship that
: obviously prevailed between outgoing
President Eisenhower and incoming
President Kennedy at Inauguration
time was one of the nice touches to the
change of command. Washington had
not been used to such during the past
thirty years plus. Anyone for a

To Make 1t Touqh on Reds

bill approved by the House
Judiciary Committee would plug a big
loophole in the Smith Act, one of the
Governments principal weapons against
Communist subversion. The proposed
legislation, similar to a measure passed
by the House last year but which died
on the Senate side, would outlaw re-
cruiting of members for any .organiza-
tion dedicated to overthrowing the
United States Government by force or
violence.
Under the CommuniSt-co law
of 1910, the organizing" of such group
was held to be sufficient cause for
prosecution. A number of Communist
leaders in California were convicted
under that provision of the Smith Act,
but the Supreme Court in 1857 threw
out the convictions on the ground that
"organizing" meant the initial forma
ton of the Communist Party and that
this occurred beyond the three-year
deadline of the statute of limitations.
The bill sent to the House by the
Judiciary Committee would define
organizing" as a continuing process,
involving current recruiting of new
members, regrouping of units, forming
of new units or expansion of existing
units. Representative Howard w. Smith
of Virginia, sponsor of the original act,
has stressed that it was the intent of
Congress that organizing" would
include such activities.
The committee also approved bill
that would require the Moscow directed
Amtorg Trading Corporation to register
as an agent of a foreign government.
The present registration law covers only
agents paid" by a foreign power.
Antorg is not technically paid Soviet
agent, and thus has escaped regiStra-
tion. The law would be amended to
require registration of any agent under
direction or control of foreign nation,
whether in the pay of that nation or not.
Both of these measures would
strengthen the Governments hand in
dealing with the Communist menace in
this country. We hope they will pass at
this session of Congress.

'Eichmonn's Trial.

and it will be held openly,
not in secret, and he has a
lawyer. What more could he
expect?
Kay and Gene Wortsman.
The Constitution of the
United States stipulates that
no citizen may be tried and
convicted for violations of
laws prior to their enact
ment. This is one of the
landmarks of American JUS
tice. In fact our system of
justice even frees guilty men
if any of the prescribed pro-
cesses of arrest, interroga-
tion, and trial are abridged.
Responsible citizenship is
under obligation to sustain
these qualities of justice for
Americans and to support
the spirit of such justice in
the interest of all men. Such
responsibility falls especially
heavy upon organs of COM
munication and news dispen-
Sation. Yet The Stars edi-
torial, "Eichmann's Trial"
invites the American public
to condone an un-American
brand of justice to be the lot
OF one man who happens to
be a member of that great
mass of nom Americans.
This is not reason. This is
. naturalization. 1t is the de-
ceiving black magic which
creates the illusion of NOR
ality and justice. 1t is self
justification. 1t is the sub
stance of both lynch-law and
of relationships. The thesis
of your editorial is: The man
is guilty; therefore, give him
a fair trial. This proposition
is a wholly un-American
concept because preSupposed
guilt obviously eliminates
trial as a function of guilt
determination. Therefore, the
motivation for trial appears
to be ulterior and irrelevant
to the process and purpose
of justice.
What is the quality of an
editorial responsibility which
proposes kangaroo justice for
n n-Americans? Can The
Stars editorial influence be
really depended upon to
champion American princi-
pies of justice in behalf of
American citizens after so
eloquently taking the stump
in behalf of un-American
justice for non-Americans?
