The story is that President
Eisenhower, who 9 made q
substantial revaluation Of
John Kennedy after his first
talk with him, has said he
wished he, Eisenhower, might
have attracted about him the
many able assistants and
cabinet members who have
answered Kennedy's call. It
likely Is q true story. The

1852, he seemed a bit visit

bring the best business brains

He believed this. And he

For all the dining and the
dancing, the merriment and
the laughter. the Capital City
at Inauguration time was not.
in q mood to forget what was
ahead in the day-by-day un-
folding Of a cloudy future.
The wboy bands, the
squads Of mountain men from
the Western States and the
many other costumes did not
seem quite SO much in keep
ing with the times as in by
gone years. They always look
artificial. They appear the
more so now. No amount Of
evoking of the past will lift
the weight Of the present. It
is here. Everyone seems to
know that.
The Democrats are happy.
But, at the dinners, large and
small, the conversation is
neither exultant nor overly
critical. There is no wish to
criticize the departing Presi-
dent. But there is q feeling
that his eight years were
somehow a holding period. q
time when the Nation stood
still, the dangers grew strong
er and the people and their
leaders were less assured.
The talk is neither bitter
nor condemning. But 1t
holds to the fact that some
how in the past eight years
the economy slipped; the
presence of com m unism
moved from Asia and Europe
to Cuba and Latin America,
and Red China came to even
terms with the USSR In de-
bates on theological proce-
dures.
How this came about none
can be quite sure. And what
can be done is not sure
either. But there is new hope.
Youth does not know all the
answers, but it is action. and
the Nation needs action.

Tough Words on Freedom and Tyranny
Reportedly Omitted by Soviet Press
DAVID LAWRENCE

Dust why did almost every
body here approve Of Presi-
dent Kennedy's Inaugural
address-Repuhlicans and
Democrats, conservatives and
non-conservatives alike?
The answer is: Because
the speech expressed elo-
quently. forcefully, clearly the
foreign policy Of the United
States-its traditional prin-
ciples for decades past.
But while America was
thrilled by the speech, the
Soviet Union censored 1t.
This was q grim reminder Of
the problem faced by the new
President. For he Is being
prevented-even as was his
predecessor-from talking to
the peoples behind the Iron
Curtain. Here are three pas
sages which q Moscow dis
patch by the United Press
international tells US did not
appear in the press Of the
Soviet Union:

whether it wishes US well or
Ill, that we shall pay any
price, bear any burden. meet
any hardship, support any
friend, oppose any foe to as
sure the survival and success
Of liberty. :.
ITO those new states whom
We welcome to the ranks Of
the free. we pledge our word
that one form Of colonial
control shall not have passed
away merely to be replaced
BY . far more iron tyr
amy.
"And let every other pow.
er know that this hemisphere
intends to remain the master
Of its own house."
Presumably the Soviets
didn't want to print any
thing that runs contrary to
what their Premier said re-
Gently in his professed op-
position to "colonialism" or
to be reminded by irnplica-
ton that there are several
states now under Soviet DOM
ination, which constitutes q
new form Of ''colonialism. !"
Presumably also the Soviet
government didn't want its

people to know. Of the reso-
luteness Of the new President
OF the United States when he
warns the Soviet Union that
the American people will be
asked to "pay any price, bear
any burden. meet any hard
ship. support any friend, OPP
pose any foe to assure the
survival and success of
liberty"
For this timely warning
was but another way Of say
ing that America will nego-
tiate, is not afraid to negoti-
ate and is eager to begin
anew the quest for peace"
but that this must not be
construed as a bid for peace
at-any-price. Although the
Soviet newspapers didn't
print the speech in full-and
1t was very short - Mr..
Khrushchev and the others
in the Kremlin undoubtedly
read every word Of 1t.
There were only O few sen.
tences in the Inaugural ad-
dress which could be con-
strued as relating to domestic
policy, and it may also be
asked: Why did these please
all sides, or at least the
conservatives? The answer Is
to be found in this memora-
BILE sentence:
"And so. my fellow Amer
leans: Ask not what your
country can do for you-ask
what you can do for your
country"
This places an emphasis
on self-reliance and is the
true meaning Of the oppo-
sition to the welfare state"
This has been too often dis
torted as opposition to all
reforms and to all progress,
when the truth is no sensible
conservative ever opposes
direct Intervention by the
Government in the economic
life Of the country in an
emergency or when all other
means have failed-as when
private enterprise cannot fl

nouncement parallels the

vidualism proclaimed in an

Letter to The Editor

Family, Church & Navy Work
There are three types of letters
which are written TO U. S. Con-
gressmen by parents of men in the
military service which are disap-
pointing. to say the least. The
first type letter claims that the
Navy makes boys immoral" When
eighteen year old boys enlist in
the Navy, their basic moral ana
ethical judgments are already es-
tablished. The Navy officially dis
courages drunkenness, promiscuous
sexual relationships and general
moral. physical and mental "sloppi-
ness. If such misdeeds take place
while on duty, the guilty party is
subject to immediate Court Martial
and Dishonorable Discharge. To
help guard against such miSdeeds,
the Navy requires Divine Services
TO be held every Sunday, and of
fers regular opportunities for the
men to attend Sunday Church
School. Bible Studies, Confirma-
ton Glasses and other Adult In
struction Glasses. However, just
as in civilian life, the Commanding
Officer or Chaplain cannot force
the Navy personnel to participate,
and thus much depends on the
home training of the personnel.
Good and bad companions can be
found in Navy life, just as they
can be found in civilian life 1t is
