meeting with the top Soviet
diplomat in the last eight days
and their main questions about
Soviet intentions are said to be
still unanswered.
Western diplomats reported
the talks have yielded some
slight indication that Russia
may be seriously interested in
arranging a Big Four Foreign
Ministers conference later on,
but it obviously is in no haste
to do so.
Some Western officials think
Premier Khrushchev probably
prefers to stall off a conference
until after a Soviet Communist
Party meeting in Moscow late
next month. There is specula-
ton he may sign the treaty
with Communist East Germany
or announce definite plans for
signing 1t at that time. Thus
he may not want to get into
negotiations until he has acted.
Home, GrOmykO Meet Again
Lord Home and Mr.. Gromyko
spent an hour and 20 minutes
together late yesterday. 1t was
their second meeting. Mr.. Rusk
previously had held two long
conferences with Mr.. Gromyko
and is scheduled to meet him
again tomorrow morning.
Mr.. Rusk then will hold a
final talk with Lord Home here
tomorrow afternoon. He plans
to return to Washington to-
morrow night and Lord Home
expects to fly to London Sun
day. Their departures prob
ably will not end the talks,
however, for Mr.. Gromyko may
go to Washington next week
Tor another meeting with Mr..
RuSk.
Deadlock on Terms
On the Western side the aim
of all this diplomatic activity is
two-fold: To try to find out
from Mr.. Gromyko whether Mr..
Khrushchev is interested in a
Berlin compromise and, if SO,
whether broad basis for ne
gotiations can be agreed on.
Both Mr.. Khrushchev and
President Kennedy have said

Typical Of the half million teen-age visitors
who are making the trip this year, many for the
first time, is 15-year-old Cheryl Lambert of Cum

Cheryl was the winner of a national essay

Last week, Cheryl arrived at Union Station,
accompanied by C. N. Lambert, her father and

Last Untouched Resource

: Interior Secretary Udall has shown
commendable interest in what he aptly
describes as the Potomac basins "last
untouched resource" the historic Chesa-
peake & Ohio Canal. He has given his
support to proposed legislation to set
aside the canal and its right-of-way
land as a national park, under protec-
ton of his department. The chances
Of congressional approval of the plan
therefore seem brighter than they have
been in the past.
The canal and its scenic setting,
from Great Falls to Cumberland, already
have been designated national monu-
ment," under an executive order signed
by former President Eisenhower lust
before he left Office. The effect of this
order was to preserve the canal as
public park, but the National Park
Service would need special legislation to
develop the park for recreational pur-
poses, as long planned.

special political committee Of the
United Nations has approved a resolu-
tion calling upon all members to cen
sure South Africa and "to consider
taking such separate and collective
action as is open to them" to compel
the South African government to
abandon its apartheid policies. The
precise significance of the quoted
language-what it will really mean in
practice-iS obscure. 1t seems clear
enough, however, that it constitutes an
interference in South African domestic
affairs, and this is beyond the scope of
U. N. authority.
1t is said that the resolution which
was adopted is milder than proposal
sponsored by Cuba, Haiti, the 10 Com
muniSt members and IS Afro-Asian
countries. This is true. But the
difference is one of degree only. There
is no difference in principle.
South Africa'S racial policies are
highly offensive to most U. N. members,
and acting individually, the U. N.
countries might well attempt to induce
change. But collective action,
especially when it carries suggestion
OF coercive action, is another matter.
In the absence of a threat to interna-
tional peace, of which there is no evi-
dence, South Africa's apartheid laws
constitute domestic problem which is
no proper concern of the U. N. If the
international agency is going to meddle
in matter of this kind in South Africa,
it can do the same with respect to any
problem in any country. One would
think that the U. N. has it's hands filled
with enough problems of legitimate
concern without embarking on pro-
jects which, If pursued long enough and
often enough, can only serve to destroy
such influence as the organization may
have.

Attorney General Robert
F. Kennedy repeatedly re-
CARDS the John Birch Society
as ridiculous" Considering
its official attitude towards
so respected an individual as
Chief Justice Earl Warren,
perhaps "insidious" would be
a more apt description.
1t is well to remember that
a chest-thumping elocution-
ist named Mussolini and a
heel-clicking martinez known
as Hitler, when first they
appeared on the world scene,
also seemed beneath serious
notice. In the course of time,
though, the capacity for To-
menting evil demonstrated by
this pair proved virtually
limitleSs. How many lives
eventually had to be for
feited because the menace
wasn't promptly recognized!
Extremists, whether they
list to the right or to the
left, have a common weapon
in their arsenal. This, of
course, is the ability to per-
Suade the unthinking that
complicated problems can
readily be resolved by taking
rigid and uncompromising
positions. Deny civil rights
to those whom you dislike,
they counsel us, and all diff
culties will soon vanish. What
they fail to point out is that
were any such course to be
followed, we simultaneously
would weaken and under
mine the safeguards which
one day may be the sole
guarantee of our own saliva
ton.
Whether too much atten-
ton is being paid the John
Birch organization is, there
fore, a debatable point. Even
without the aid of recent
publicity, it clearly has gath
cred unto itself adherents in
a majority Of the States. Will
added notoriety swell its
ranks or give rise to sober
second thoughts among at
least some of it's present
members? We can merely
guess at the answer but, if
the group truly has nothing
to hide, additional probing
should be welcomed, not re-
sented.

Of course, Stewart Udall,
the energetic chief of the
Interior Department, is re-
sponsible for Indian affairs,
so maybe his interest in the
tribal customs of our local
Redskins is justified. But I
do wish he would stop worry
ing about the complexion of
a small paleface tribe, and
turn his attention to bigger
and better things.
This old time RedSkin of
the Western plains hopes that
he will rectify some of the
inequalities which our tribes
have inherited from the days
of the old frontier. Some of
us are still a mite skeptical
about this equality-of-
business. and we have grave
doubts about there being no
second-class citizens. Perhaps
Sachem Stew can cleanse our
minds of suspicion and doubt.
At least he could tell us about
fraternity, equality, liberty,
and the ideals of the New
Frontier. We would also well
come any Peace Corpsmen
who might be able to in
ostruct us in the ways Of de-
mocracy and self-government.

of the numerous leftist news
papers as we'll as some of the
more conservative, the same
old hue and cry of fascist"
is raised against the John
Birch Society as that which
brought Mccarthy, Dies and
many others to their knees.
Left-wingerS, smarting under
ignominiouS defeat in their
recent campaign to abolish
the House Committee on
Un-American Activities, are
using clever diversionary tao
tics to cover this defeat and
at the same time to destroy
the society'S effectiveness in
the in enSifying battle
against domestic commu-
niSm.
The main activity of the
Birch Society seems to be
the writing of letters to Sen
ators and Congressman per-
tanning to legislation under
consideration. Just how is
this reprehenSible? Is it not
the right, yes the duty, of
citizens to communicate their
opinions and desires to their
legislators? Some also write
letters to editors, but don't
we all?
1t seems to me, as an out
slider, that the crime of the
Birch Society is not that it
is either secret or faSciStic
but that it has become ef-
fective as a powerful voice
for the huge and effectively
silenced majority who want
to retain at least a vestige
of constitutional government.
Politically diSfranchised and
effectively shut out of much
of the public press and other
media of dissemination, bru-
tally taxed without political
representation, this majority
is in much the same posi-
ton as those early Colonists
who staged the Boston Tea
Party. Sooner or later it will
find expression and the arro-
CANT politicians who have ig-
nored its wishes and denied
its existence will pay the
penalty.
A groundswell of conserv-
atism, spanked by Barry
Goldwater, is distinctly no.
ticeable. This will increase
as time passes. Whether the
Birch Society or some other
group or individual becomes
the voice of the disfranchised

Silent PRAYERS at u. N.

History tells us that on
June %. 1887, the Constitu-
tional Convention was on the
point Of breaking up because
of diSagreements among the
participants, and Benjamin
Franklin expressed concern
and made the following state
ment:
How has it happened, sir,
that we have not hitherto
once thought of humbly ap-
plying to the Father of Lights
to illuminate our understand
ingS?
Il have lived, sir, a long
time, and the longer 1 live
the more convincing proofs
I see of this truth, that God
governs in the affairs of
men. And if a sparrow can
not fall to the ground with
out His notice, is it probable
that an empire can rise with
out His aid? We have been
assured, sir, in the sacred
writings, that except the Lord
build the house, they labor
in vain that build It,
II firmly believe this: and
I also believe that without
His concurring aid we shall
succeed in this political build
ing no better than the
builders of Babel"
I wonder if Franklin's
statement is not applicable,
also, to the conduct of the
affairs of the United Nations.
So far as I know, no meeting
of that body has ever been
opened with prayer for guild
ance. Possibly for fear of
offending our atheistic friend
Russia. If that be the case,
the presiding officer could at
least request the members to
rise and offer a silent prayer.
We should not permit the
fact that Russia is not pres
emily on speaking terms with
the Deity to stand in the
way of progress toward world
peace. j. Chester WilfOng
