Quotation
for the Week

We make our friends; we make
our enemies; but God makes our
next door neighbor. Hence he
comes to us clad in all the care
less terrorS Of nature; he is as
strange as the stars, as reckless
and indifferent as the rain. He is
man, the most terrible Of the
beasts. That is why the old re-
ligions and the old scriptural lam
guage showed so sharp q wisdom
when they spoke, not of ones
duty toward humanity, but ones
duty toward ones neighbor. The
duty toward humanity may often
take the form of some choice
which is personal or even pleas
urable. That duty may be a hobby;
it may even be a dissipation. :. .
The most monStrous martyrdom,
the most repulsive experience,
may be the result of choice or a
kind of taste. But we have to
love our neighbor because he is
there-a much more alarming
reason for a much more serious
operation. He is the sample of
humanity that is actually given
us. Precisely because he may be
anybody he is everybody. He is
a symbol because he is an acci-
dent. G. K. Chesterton in

Taking himself further out of
the 1864 picture, Mr.. Nixon ad-

candidate by taking on all comers,
including Senator Goldwater, in
preferential State primaries.

gle. Defensive postures win few

But while there is doubtless a
large pot Of gold at the end of
this free trade economic unity
rainbow, there are extre mely
thorny problems to be solved and
hurdles to overcome before Con-
gress is likely to approve such
legislation as Messrs. Ball, Herter
and Clayton enviSion.
For example, we have hard
core of unemployment in the
United States-the jobleSs rate
in october continued at 6.8 per
cent-and a substantial portion of
those persons seeking work are
the direct or indirect victims of

certain American industries.
o. r. Strackbein, chairman of
the Nationwide Committee on

zionist group, put the matter this
way in a published report last

Wogner's Role

The President is repeatedly not
over-enthusiaStic about the can
didacy of Mr.. Wagner, who has
been beset on all sides with
charges of maladministration Of
the city.
But New York gave Mr.. Ken
nedy its IS electoral votes last
year and any chance to strength
en- the Democratic Party there is
not to be overlooked. A Wagner
defeat would weaken further
Democratic chances of upsetting
Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller next
year and keeping the State in
the Democratic column in 1864.
In his stump speech in Trenton,
the President used more of his IL
minutes to point with pride at his
administrations record than he
did to plump for Richard v.
Hughes for Governor. The pitch
he used for the candidate was an
old one: A national Democratic
administration can work better
with State administration of the
same party; and the benefits flow
more freely in this kind of situa-
ton.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Eisenhower con-
tinued his politicking for G. o. P
candidates. He addressed a rally
in San Antonio in support Of Mr.
Goode, who seeks the House seat
vacated by Representative Paul J
Kilday, a Democrat. He attacked
administration fiscal and spending
policies, but backed Mr.. Kennedy
for his stand on Berlin.

Communists:
Next Move?

Joseph Stalin'S body was or
dered removed from its place of
honor last week by the 22d
Communist Party Congress,
which condemned the cult of
the personality" Nikita S.
Khrushchev, as expected, was
reelected first secretary.
In Moscow's Red Square stands
the Lenin Mausoleum where lies
the embalmed body of Vladimir
Iliich Lenin, the founder of the
Soviet state.
Lenin has rested there since
his death in 1924. On March g.,
1853, Joseph Stains body was
placed next to Lenin, and the
word Stain" etched into the
stone at the main entrance, un-
derneath "Lenin."
Last week, after two weeks of
brutal revelations about Stalin's
reign. the party congress voted
to remove his body from the
mauSoleum. Without fanfare,
Stain was buried near the Krem-
lin wall among other honored
dead and his name removed from
the stone.

Their disappointment at having

since. He worked closely with
Jean Monnet to organize the

disappointments in the postwar
years was the failure of the Euro

Some years ago pollsters went
to the public and asked what
they thought the word UNESCO
meant.
Officials were dismayed to learn
that only is per cent Of Ameri-

Rhapsody, and the average guy
thought it was a cookie" said one
observer.
Yesterday the organization cell
ebrated its 18th birthday ami
versary amid mounting evidence
that its job is gaining not only
understanding but approval
around the world.
There will probably always be
controversy about UNESCO. Even
sbefore it was born a noisy ruckus
among American isolationists ex-
ploded over speeches hailing its
"re-education of all peoples" Ed
ucation in the Kremlin line? Who
is to be the teacher? Such were
the questions raised.
. One of the most suspicious was
the Soviet Union itself. 1t refused
to join during UNESCO's first
eight years, barred its publica-
tions and wouldn't even answer
its letters. Red satellites such as
Poland, Hungary and Czechoslo-

cold war began in earnest, but

Today 102 nations belong to
UNESCO, with Ireland the newest
member. She signed up last
month.
UNESCo has many friends in
out-of -the-way corners Of the
world. A woman in a Mexican
village once held up a chicken
in the market and shouted,
"UNESCO! UNESCOl"
When a baffled UNESCO Off
cial asked her what she meant,
she replied that she thought the
word meant the same thing as

At this point it's appropriate
to note that the organization is

This eight-man clique, led by
Molotov, Bulganin and Kagano-
vich, were condemned as Stain

of the personality" These are
currently the worst Soviet sins,
and led to their expulsion from
the party.
The purpose Of the recent in
vective is still not totally clear.
Some observers believe Mr.. Khru-
shchev sincerely wants more
intra-party democracy and felt
the condemnation would clear
the air.
Certainly, Soviet citizens last
week freely discussed the merits
of the anti-Stalin charges in Red
Square, much to the surprise of
foreigners familiar with normal
Russian reluctance to talk poll
tics in public.
More cynical observers, how
ever, noted that Mr.. KhruShchev
packed the new 11-man Prae-
sidium with his own supporters.
This might mean he was pre-
pairing a purge of his own. Stain,
himself, had the habit of liqui-
dating the opposition, and then
adopting its policies. Thus, after
wiping out the Stalinists, they ar

Ambassador Herve Alphand of
France was surveying with deep
satisfaction the gala ballet scene
at Versailles when the man next
to him leaned over to peer into
his face.
IT remember you," the man
said with a twinkle in his eye,
you are the husband of Madame
Alphand."
The startled Ambassador paused
to look the man up and down,
then responded with a burst of
recognition: But, of course. and
I remember you too. You are
the husband of Jacqueline Ken
nedy."
This easy relationship with the
President of the United States
was well established before Sem
ator John F. Kennedy moved into
the White House. 1t is an in
valuable asset for France, and the
United States, especially when
the policies of the two centuries
old allies diverge.
And during Mr.. Alphand's tour
here, diverge they have.
Suez Crisis RecoIIed
The new Ambassador plane
landed at Washington National
Airport at 8 pm. one September
afternoon in 1856 and at 3:15
pm. he was in Secretary of State
Dulles office discussing the Suez
crisis without having presented
his credentials. Mr.. Dulles un-
veiled at that meeting one of
his most notable inventions, the
Suez Canal Users Association
which was to bemuse European
foreign secretaries for weeks.
When France and Britain moved
troops into the Suez area and
Mr.. Dulles censured them in the
United Nations. Ambassador AL
phand had one of the most
delicate diplomatic assignments of
his life.
These were his most strenuous
days in Washington until the
Berlin crisis this summer and
fall.
Ambassador Alphand was not
at his post when the Communists
erected the East Berlin wall last
August 13. Against his better
Judgment he had agreed to a
vacation on the French Riviera.
He loathes vacations, friends say,
because he does not know what
to do with himself. He is not
the outdoor type, he doesn't
swim, or play tennis, or fish. or
shoot; he doesn't tan easily so
the sun is something to be
Stunned. He gets lonely waiting
for the athletes to return.
On the other hand, he is an
extremely hard working civil
servant. He got back to Wash
ington August %, ten days after
the wall went up in East Berlin.
He has been at the State De-
partment every working day since,
and frequently on Saturdays and
Sundays. With him serving his
country is a tradition older than
the French revolution.
Background Of Civil Service
The Alphand family has been
in the French civil service for
two and a half centuries with
out interruption. Mr.. Alphand's
father, Charles was Ambassador
to Moscow from 1888 to 1886.
The first Alphand to enter the
service of France was Jean, who
was Governor Of one of the
French provinces in 1707. Herye

The Vichy Government Of

he was hardly a loyal representa-

French war contracts here, trans
