The Summit: First RoL

President Kennedy announced
on Friday that he will meet with
Soviet Premier Khrushchev for
face-tO-face exchange Of views
in Vienna on June 8 and 4.
During the fourth and final
television debate with Vice PreSi-
dent Nixon last October 81, Can
didate Kennedy declared:
II believe we should not 60 to
the summit until there is some
reason to believe that a meeting
OF minds can be obtained on either
Berlin. outer space, or general dis.
armament, including nuclear test
ing until we are strong here,
until we are moving here, I be-
lieve a summit could not be sue
cessful.
"I hope that before we do meet
there will be preliminary agree
ments on those four questions, or
at least two Of them, or even one
Of them, which would warrant
such a meeting"
In view Of these sentiments. and
the pains with which the White
House took to knock down a Sug-
geStion aired by the United States
Ambassador to the United Ma
tions, Adlai E. Stevenson, a couple
months ago that Mr.. Kennedy
would be happy to meet with Mr..
Khrushchev. the nearly stimuli
taneous announcements out Of
Washington and Moscow that the
leaders Of the two super-powerS
would meet in Vienna June ga
for an exchange of views on world
problems came as something Of a
surprise.

A Warning

In addition to the obvious de-
sire on Mr.. Kennedy's part to
feel out" his chief adversary, the
President is said to have an even
more important reason now than
he had when he first let the Rus
sian leader know two months ago
that he wanted to meet with him.
This concerns the conviction
on Mr.. Kennedy's part that Mr..
Khrushchev, repeatedly in an ar
rogant and possibly overconfident
mood in the wake Of United States
reverses in Cuba and Laos, and
evidences Of strains within NATO,
must be assured that we are de-
termined to oppose Communist
pressures anywhere and anytime
our security and that Of the free
world warrants it.
There have been hints, too, that
the President would like to obtain
some sort Of agreement from the
Soviet leader for easing his de-
mand for q veto Of nuclear test
ban inspections.
Mr.. Kennedy is said to contend
that the Geneva talks on this is
sue hold the key to disarmament
and a host of other global issues
which divide the free world and
Soviet bloc.
If the Kremlin is adamant on
an inspection" system which
could lead to cheating, then no
agreement is in prospect. The
United States and its allies al
ready have made that clear.

Novel Plan

One who testified, Mark w.
Cresap, jr.. president Of the West
lnghouse Co., took a positive ap-
proach. He acknowledged that the
price fixing which was laid to his
company in the Governments re-
cent action involved about 10 per
cent OF the company's sales and
accepted responsibility, as the
firms head, for what went on.
But, he maintained, he had no
reason to suspect that there was
artificial rigging of prices.
The line was one the committee
had heard from other witnesses
but one proved to be different. He
had a new and somewhat revolu-
tlonary announcement to make.
1t was that his company had
formed an outside panel Of dis
tinguished citizens to oversee its
activities to guarantee that there
would be no more antitrust law
violations. Three members were
university law school men-Dean
Erwin N. Griswold of Harvard,
Dean Eugene v. Rostow Of Yale,
and Prof. s. Chesterfield Open
helm OF Michigan-and the fourth
was A. D. H. Kaplan, a Brookngs
Institution economist.

value to the Kefauver committee

Amendments Lose

But those who hailed the agree
ment on the separation of the
two school issues did not mean
to say that all would be clear
sailing for the original bill. Rows
arose in the Senate Immediately
over everything from where the
money would come from and how
1t would be allocated, to whether
schools which practice segrega-
tion would be allowed to benefit.
Several crippling amendments
were beaten down in the Senate
debate but not before tempers
had been aroused to such an ex-
tent that passage was not posi-
ble last week despite longer
hours. Senator Morse, Democrat
OF Oregon, floor manager of the
bill, predicted passage this week,
however.
On the House side the Educa-
ton and Labor Committee an

Koreu:
NewRegime

A military junta on Monday
Overthrew the constitutional gov
ernment of South Korea in a
virtually blOodless coup d'etat.
The junta, which declared itself
firmly anti ti-COmmunist and pro-
American, appears to be in full
control of the country.
Thirteen months ago, spanked by
militant students who took to the
streets, an anti-government upriS-
ing forced the resignation of Pres
ident Syngman Rhee and his in
creasingly stern and corrupt re-
gime.
Four months later, after a free
election, John M. Chang was in
stalled as Premier. He found it
was not easy. He had troubles
with the national economy and,
apparently. with grating politi-
clans.
Nevertheless, there was surprise,
particularly in Washington, when
a military junta, backed at first
by a comparatively small contin-
gent Of $500 ROK army troops,
deposed Mr.. Chang and seized
power in Seoul. The junta's stated
aim: To end corruption and make
South Korea more vigorously anti
Communist.
tSo far as is known, no one
has as yet blamed this one on
the Central Intelligence Agency.l
The coup, which was given a
slight trapping of legality when
Premier Chang formally resigned,
was setback for American policy
in Korea, a cornerstone of which
has been to keep the ROK army
out of politics.
Evening star., 1961-05-21

ations as an omnipotent power.
Then, finding the silver lining,
he said:
THE military leaders are
strongly Communist and pro-
American"
AS a matter Of fact, no one
doubts that the junta, headed
(at least in name) by 1t. Gen.
Chang Do Yung, 38-year- old
Korean army chief of staff, will
support fully United States pol
icy.
What Washington does not
know is this: How will it treat
the Korean people and when will
it turn back national authority,
as it promises it will do eventu-
ally, to civilian officials?

Drawing

and grants for scholarships and
construction of academic faciIi-
ties in colleges and universities.
The general aid bill (similar to
the one the Senate was debating)
was before the committee, too,
but whether it would come up
ahead Of the college bill wasn't
certain.
OF perhaps more interest than
the construction angle in the col
lege bill was the action on the
scholarships. The original Ken
nedy proposed had been for four
year Federal scholarships averag-
ing $4,000 each, for 212,500 pros
pective students, and a payment
Of $3.50 to the college for each
student attending.

NucIeor AnqIe

Mr.. Kennedy did not elaborate
on how the United States was pre-
pared to share control of the nu-
clear weapons aboard the PolariS
missile submarines which would
make up the seaborne force.
But his statement appeared to
mean that the submarines like the
five already promised to NATO,
would not merely be assigned to
the United States 9Th Fleet, which
is also the striking fleet of NATO's
Southern Europe command.
Before such a NATO Seaborne
missile force is formed, our allies
presumably would have to increase
their non-nuclear ground forces
until 80 divisions are in the field
in Western Europe. Currently,
counting the five-plus American
divisions in West Germany, NATO
has 81 1s divisions in the area.

Veto Setup

This was the double-barreled
veto contained in a Russian pro-
posal for the functioning of the
international Control Commission
which would be charged with in
vestigating any violation of
Laotian neutrality.
Here is how the vetoes, which
could paralyze the control commits
sion, are set-up in the Soviet
plan:
o Soviet agreement would be re-
quired If the co-chairmen of the
Geneva conference, Russia and
Great Britain, were to instruct
the commission to investigate
neutrality violations. Britain
could not act alone.
. All decisions by the commits
sion would have to be unanimous.
Thus, Poland, the Communist bloc
member. could bar reports of neu-
trality violations from reaching
the conference co-chairmen de-
spite approval by both of the other
commission members, Canada and
India.
Secretary Rusk is known to
take most serious view Of the
Soviet ploy. He feels that it rep
resentS another indication Of
new Kremlin tactic in inter-
national conferences one that
"bodes no optimism" for ending
East-West tensions and the build
ing of peaceful world.
Evening star., 1961-05-21
A Precedent?

While some may ask, rhetor-
ically, when is a summit not a
summit?" the verbal waltzing the
two leaders plan to do in the
Austrian capital is being likened
to the Camp David meeting be-
tween President Eisenhower and
the Soviet boss in September,
1859.
But that meeting, which
spawned the spurious Soviet slo-
gan, "the spirit of Camp David"
led to an agreement for the sum-
NIT meeting Of last May, which
was torpedoed at the last minute
by the Russians following the U-2
reconnaissance plane incident. 1t
also resulted in the removal by
Mr.. KhruShchev of his "ulti-
matum" on Berlin.
Certainly, the Vienna meeting,
which follows Mr.. Kennedy's visit
to Paris for three days of talks
with President de Gaulle, may
also develop into something more
than an exchange of views"

The Controversy

More support Of education
sounds indisputable but it Ii
so only in theory. Actually, as
complex and discouraging set
OF preSSureS as any legislator
could imagine has plagued such
bills in recent years. One of the
most virulent issues has been over
the question Of public help to
private Gin most cases, religiouS)
schools. The issue arose with new
vitality as soon as the Kennedy
program was submitted. The stand
of the Roman Catholic arch
bishops who spoke out in favor
Of such aid made Mr.. Kennedy's
position more complicated. Legis-
lators lined up for and against
and the big debate was on.
The question was whether to
meet the issue head-on and tie
the private schools question to the
main education aid bill in an open,
bull-dozing maneuver to force a
decision. or whether to keep the
most controversial point out Of
the fight. Advocates of general
school aid urged the latter course.
Last week decision was made
which, it was agreed, should do
much to insure some kind of
decent bill at the session. The
Senate's Democratic leaders for
mally decided to seek separate
bills for public and for private
school aid. Such a separate bill
doubtless will include provisions
for Federal loans to parochial and
other private schools to finance
construction Of clasTooms and
laboratories for science, mathe-
matics and foreign languages.
Then the question of whether
Government aid should be ex-
tended to religious institutions
can be aired and it will beat
great length.
The procedure, apparently, will
be to add the private schools
benefits to a bill calling for extern
sion and enlargement of the 1858
Defense Education Act which is
already in effect and under which
much has already been done. (See
George oakes' story on Improve
ment OF Science Teaching on
Page D-3.)
Evening star., 1961-05-21
Soviet Veto

This tactic is, Of course, the
demand for a Soviet veto of any
agreement" into which it enters.
Actually, the veto makes i'm
possible any real adjudication or
arbitration on the international
level because the Soviet could
always refuse to live up to any
agreement" it found was not
working in its favor.
Prior to the veto it wants on
the Laos question, the Soviet
made similar demands in two
other areas:
Premier Khrushchev's proposal
that a three-man board run the
United Nations Secretariat, with
one member each from the Com
munist bloc, the West and the
neutrals.
Soviet Delegate Tsarapkin's de-
mand for a similar EaSt-West-
neutral triumvirate, with each
member having a veto. to con-
troll a nuclear test ban.
The chief delegateS-the vari-
GUS foreign ministers-have re-
turned home from the Geneva
meeting on Laos, leaving to sub
ordinateS the task OF working
themselves out of the deadlock.
However, the chances are high,
according to some observers, that
when Mr.. Kennedy and Mr..
Il Khrushchev sit down to talk in
Vienna the neutral Laos" prob
lem will still be begging a solu-
tion.
Certainly. the violent language
used by the Reds, who charge
that American imperialism must
be eradicated from Southeast
Asia, and the counter-charge by
United States spokesman that the
Soviet-bloc powers are seeking to
get the free peoples of the area
to hand themselves over without
resistance to Communist dictator
ship" have poisoned the atmos-
phere and made it difficult for
either side to make concessions
at Geneva without loss of face.

G. O. P. Attitude

The announcement Of the meet
ing, which came after several
days OF speculation that it was
being arranged, served to mute
somewhat the chorus Of misgiv-
ings both from Republican and
Democratic sources.
The feeling. nevertheless, is
fairly general both here and in
Western Europe that this is not
the most propitious time for Mr..
Kennedys first meeting with Mr..
Khrushchev. The reasons stated
are our defeats in Cuba and Laos
and apparent lack Of firm direc-

THE NATIONAL SCENE
Some Real Progress
On School Aid Bills

Bills calling for greater Fed
exal aid to education advanced
in Congress last week but not
to the point Of passage.
Last February 20 President Ken
nedy sent to Congress one of his
first and most urgent messages. It
was in fulfillment of many cam
paign promises and it was known
to be close to John F. Kennedy'S
heart as a Representative, Sem
ator and President.
"Our progress as a nation can
be no swifter than our progress
in education. Our requirements
for world leadership, our hopes
for economic growth, and the
demands Of citizenship itself in
an era such as this all require
the maximum development of
every young Americans capac-
ity. -.
More effort will be required
on the part of students, eachers,
schools. colleges and all so
States-and on the part of the
Federal Government"
The effort he enviSioned has by
now assumed the form of proposed
legislation:
. Grants Of $2.5 billion over
three years to be used by the
States primarily for the construc-
ton Of elementary and high school
classrooms and for boosting teach
ers' salaries.
. Loans Of almost $1.8 billion to
colleges for construction of dormi-
tories, classrooms, laboratories. IL
braries and other academic facil-
tiles.
. Federal scholarships for needy
students.

NATO Promise

It was more than a good will
visit, however. Mr.. Kennedy, who
spoke frankly of the two nations
differing points of view, called on
Canada to join the Organization
Of American States and play a
full role in hemisphere nfe-with
its resources, skills and judicious
perception at the council table.
The President, in his speech to
the Parliament in Ottawa, took
the occasion to make a promise
to the nations of the North At
lantic Treaty Organization, Of
which Canada is a member. This
was it:
If our NATO allies will join us
in building up and improving con-
ventional military forces, the
United States will help NATO eS-
tabliSh a seaborne force which
would be truly multi Lateral in
ownership and control"

ing to be very little for the West
to cheer about. Convinced that
they were dealing from great
strength, the Communist bloc set
off a series Of violent anti-United
States TRADES. And the Soviet
Union, as usual, quickly produced
a new stumbling block.
