CHRONICLE MILFORD DELAWARE,
PUT UP OR SHUT UP

The most strident-though not the most
wise and effective-opponent of Commun-
ism have occasionally tried to strengthen
their position by attacking not only individ-
uals but whole groups of reputable citizens,
notably the churches. In the Mccarthy days
one Investigator declared that the churches
were full of Communists, Lately the charge
has been repeated by extreme rightwingers.
Now the churches are striking back. The
General Assembly of the Southern Presby-
terian Church has unanimously demanded a
halt to sweeping denunciations of religious
bodies. If the accusers have any specific
facts, said the General Assembly, these
should be presented to the church bodies
supervising the persons named. If this is
not done, clearly the witchhunters have no
facts and are merely being malicious.
Other church organizations would do
we'll to take like stands There have been too
many windy and spiteful assaults on repu-
table persons and institutions. The authors
of these assaults should either put up or shut
up.

THE NEXT EIGHTEEN MONTHS

Vice President Lyndon Johnson said re-
Gently that the communist offensive all over
the world was likely to reach peak inten-
sity in the next year to eighteen months.
The Vice President, in national speech,
indicated that the Kennedy Administration
expects to be weakest, via the communists,
in that period. And Johnson said the extent
of communist gains, during this crisis per-
iod, might be determined by the resolve of
the free world and especially of the United
States.
The United States is now beginning to
build up the strength of its conventional
forces, and is abandoning the policy of mas
sive and instant retaliation, if a crisis be-
gins at any one of various critical areas.
But it will take time to create this added
strength and in the interim, with the So
viets enjoying lead in rocketry, we may be
subjected to severe tests by the commun-
lists.
One test has already resulted in a demo-
cratic defeat-in Laos. Another seems to be
building up in South Wet Nam. Another is
present in Cuba. Another may be pushed
anew in Berlin.
The Kennedy Administration can expect
further pushing around, then, for the next
year or eighteen months. To hold our
ground, fight, if necessary, to avoid further
retreat and defeat. Already we have back
ed away from our commitment in Laos. Ii
the communists are to be impressed with
President Kennedy's resolution, the next
time United States commitment is chal-
lenged, it should be backed up.

NEGOTIATION IS VITAL

There has been much discussion of the
State Departments position, taken after
Cuban Premier Fidel Castro had suggested
u. S.-Cuban talks, that Communism in this
hemisphere is not negotiable" This does
strike a responsive chord when one consid-
ers the possibility of Castro setting up
Soviet satellite on our doorstep. But the
question arises Is it good poker?
Suppose the Communists should respond
by saying that democracy was mot nego-
table" in their part of the world? We
maintain islands of democracy in the cas-
tern hemisphere-at Okinawa for example,
and to some degree in the Philippines and
FOrmOSa.
The State Departments statement that
Communism in the western hemisphere is
mot negotiable" has a fine, bold ring to it.
But it ignores the essential fact that such an
extreme position effectively bars talks and
thus makes any agreement impossible There
is more sense in the way President Kennedy
put it-that we must never fear to negotiate
nor negotiate through fear. Only in time of
war, when elf-preservation becomes the su-
preme law, can democracy refuse to nego-
tiate. At any other time, negotiation from
strength offers the only hope of improve
ment.
