Khrushchev'sLies Are Still News

"Our sympathies are with
peoples fighting for their
liberation and we are pre-
pared to help them in every
way we can. That. in brief,
is our concept about war"
The record Of the Soviet
troops stationed in all the
satellite countries is well
known. The severity Of their
measures Of oppression and
suppression has been estab-
lished before the United Ma
tions. But Mr.. Khrushchev
can still sit down with lead
ing American writers and get
extensive space in American
and European newspapers as
he repeats, again and again,
his lie that he recognizes the
right of an enslaved people
to rise up and fight a war Of
liberation to regain their
independence. Yet he and his
Communist forces have taken
that same independence away
from them. And he tells a
bold-faced lie when he says:
I'VE are prepared to help
them in every way we can"

Berlin: Reds New Munich Pawn

West. The party founded by
the Christian Dem ocrat,
Alcide de Casper. knows also
how much this country owes
to the United States. But
this is a country which de-
spite its prosperity is contin-
ually in political flux. No
democratic administra tion
can ignore the fact that the
Communist vote in any elec-
ton amounts to about "a per
cent.
Mr.. Fanfani himself is now
faced with one of the peren-
NAL domestic political crises.
Knowing this. Mr.. Khru-
shchev applied the heat on
what he terms the weakest
NATO link. He invited Mr..
Fanfani to Moscow where
Mr.. Khrushchev was solicit
Gus about what could hap
pen to Italy in the event the
Allies forced him into action
by refusing his preferred
negotiations. Mr.. Fanfani, it
is reported, was not so much
impressed with the veiled
threats. But he became i'm
pressed with the need Of
negotiations demanded i'm
mediately by the Red boss.
Mr.. Fanfani communicated
the ominous talks to his al
lies and reiterated them to
United States Secretary OF
State RuSk in Rome in Aug
ust.
The maneuver to break up
NATO has not been imme-
diately successful. But nobody
knows how long the Italian
government will continue in
office. The seed of neutral
ism has been placed in the
minds Of number of Italian
politicians. Italian neutrality
will not develop If Washing
ton, London and Paris hold
out against the Red maneu-
vers. But there is no doubt
that it will grow here and

years ago to Czechoslovakia.

slightly less obscene than
those of Mr.. Khrushchev
since Hitler never used filthy
curse-words under his breath

to pound the table.
There is, however, no diff
e. ference in the tactics of the
two men. The same black
mail and intimid a ting
methods are being used now
as in 1888. To achieve his
purpose, Mr.. KhruShchev,
like Hitler, urges lets sit
down and talk it over-un-
less you want to suffer the
incalculable consequences of
the horrors of modern war"
MFR. Khrushchev, however,

However, Called Vital for u. S. Citizens

Mr.. Khrushchev's words,
however, do make news, and
those who interview him, as
well as the newspapers which
print those views, are. to be
sure. performing a journals
tic function that is well rec
ognized. But, at the same

the same American news
papers which print his views
insist vehemently and con-
stantly that the Soviet news
papers be opened up to the
President of the United
States, so that at least his
statements on public policy
and comments given at press
conferences would be fully
covered in the newspapers
and on the radio throughout
the Communist-bloc coun-
tries?
For several days recently
news was deliberately with
held from the Soviet people
that their government had
actually conducted nuclear
tests, despite Mr.. Khru-
Shchev's earlier pledges that
he would not do so unless the
other side made such tests
first. 1t was only after In
dian Prime Minister Nehru
had revealed this informa-

that the Soviet Premier con-
firmed it in vague words,
without telling the people
that the government had up

four such tests and that

know that their Premier has
broken faith with the world.
Nor will they ever be per-

comments which point out
the glaring untruths in the

for instance, he says:

ROME, Italy.-It was in
September, 1898, that the
proud leaders of Eurcpe's de-
mocracies, Britain's Neville
Chamberlain and Frances
Edouard Daladier, rushed to
Munich. after Is days of a
Nazi-provoked crisis, and
signed an agreement with
Western Europe's dictators,
Adolf Hitler and Benito Mus
solini.
The agreement was hailed
as solid landmark for "peace
in our time" The price was,
the democratic leaders told
their. people, more than rea-
sonable; just turning over to
Hitler a portion of the terri
tory of Czechoslovakia on the
principle of self-determina-
ton. The Sudetenland was
overwhelmingly German.
Western Europe rejoiced. It
had obtained peace at a bar
gain. The dark clouds had dis
persed. Had Hitler not given
his solemn word that he had
no further territorial claims?
The CzechS cried. But who
listens to the cries of the
weak when bargains between
the strong are made at their
expense?
Once more the Western
world finds itself in the pre-
dicament of % years ago.
Now as then a ruthless die
tator has proclaimed his de-
termination to dominate the
world. Hitler, more moder-
ate than Nikita Khrushchev,

DAVID LAWRENCE

Many people wonder why
American newspapers give
extensive space to Nikita
Khrushchev's views. For the
Soviet Union rigidly censorS
it's own press and keeps the
people there from reading
what the President and Secre-
tary of State of the United
States and leaders in our
Congress have to say on world
affairs.
There is, of course. no
justification for Withholding
Mr.. Khrushchev's statements
from the American people.
To publish them is sound
journalism. 1t is important,
however, to print "the other
side" - the American side -
that is. to interpolate for the
benefit of the American read
er the meaning of some of
the Soviet Premier's strange
statements and to call atten-
ton to his misuse of words.
Thus, the New York Times
devoted the other day two
whole pages to the story and
text Of a very interesting in
terview with Mr.. Khrushchev
obtained in Russia by c. L.
Sulzberger. one Of the most
capable of American CORES
pondents in Europe. Previous
ly Walter Lippmann and
James Reston. and recently
Drew Pearson, interviewed
the Soviet Premier for a large
number of newspapers in this
country. Mr.. KhruShchev pc
riodically gives many hours
of his precious time as head
of a large government to
what seems to him is a very
useful means of getting his
views across to the American
people. The American writers
accurately reproduce his
statements at length, and
many readers who do not fol-
low some of these matters too
closely find themselves read
ing what appears to them to
be reasonable and often SEEM
ingly persuasive arguments.
The Voice of America, more
over, doesn't get in a year as
good a penetration of the
Soviet Unions listeners and
readers as Mr.. Khrushchev
gets in a single day in the
United States through a
lengthy interview with some
well-known American cores
pondent.
This writer would find 1t
personally obnoxious to sit
down with Nikita Khru-
shchev for an interview or
any other conversation be-
cause the Soviet Premier is
not a man who tells the
truth. Mr.. Khrushchev is as
quick to tell a lie to a foreign
newsman as he is to order an
East German citizen to jail
