president kennedy revealed
himself as an amiable, good
hunlored, penetrating person.
ality with . keen under
standing Of business psychol-
ogy as he addressed the
National Industrial Confer
ence Board in Washington.
It was In some respects q
more important speech than
any he has delivered since
his Inauguration.
For the conference board
isa non-profit-making organ
ization Of leaders in business
and in the field Of economies
which is interested In the
facts Of business research. It
has nothing to do with the
advocacy Of legislation or
anything political.
It Is fair to say that the
President made q hit with
his big audience-among
them some of the heads of
large enterprises. For he
talked frankly on subjects
that are in the minds Of
businessmen. He forthrightly
promised to deal fairly with
the private sector in the
economy.
Most interesting was Mr..
Kennedy,s simple defense Of
the profit system. Rarely has
anyone stated as precisely the
Importance Of the profit
system to the American
economy. He said:
The complaint has often
been made in business circles
that the Federal Government
is q silent partner in every
corporation-taking roughly
half Of all net earnings. But
it should also be realized that
this makes business a silent
partner Of the Federal
Government-that our reve-
nues and thus our success
are dependent upon your
profits and your success
and that, far from being
natural enemies, Government
and business are necessary
allies.
For example, the 1860
drop in expected corporate
profits Of some So billion or
81 billion also caused q loss
in Federal revenues Of at
least So billion-enough to
pay the Federal share Of all

the camels, never thirsty,
munched happily on bitter
root brush and padded along
over sharp. raSplike rocks
with never q hint Of sore feet.
On August 0, they were in AL.
buquerque, the camels trail
hardened and fat from eat
ing mesquite bush. They
carried TOO pounds each out
Of Albuquerque on to the
Colorado River.
About this time news came
that o second shipment Of 10
camels and more Arab hand
lers had arrived In San
Antonio. The Army was glee.
full. One Of the strongest sup
porters Of camels was 1t.
Edward Hartz. He took car
avan on an extended trip into
the Trans-Pecos country and
kept the camels moving for
five days without water or
feed, save for what they
snatched along the way.
1t. w. H. Echols took a
caravan out into rough coun-
try and kept them going for
20 days. Their best time was
110 miles in four days,
through heavy country, but
they were without. water or
feed. They came back in good
shape.
Camels were proved and
Congress would have voted
money for many more. But
the Civil War came on. The
camels were scattered and
abandoned. The war proved
what railroads could do. Aft
er the war men thought in
terms Of steel rails and the
Camels never came back.
But once Congress did vote
money to import them-and
the experiment succeeded
only to be lost beca( te the
rails, too, had proved even
better.

Federal Judgeships Pork Barrel

The Capitol will be seeing
Ro bert in the next few
months, not as q fighting
young investigator or q
sl1rewd political manager,
but as Attorney General and
protector Of judicial integ-
rity. The choices he makes to
get the judgeship bill and his
manner Of handling the
clamoring legislators win be
Q quite different test and 1t
win be closely watched.
He could do one or more Of
several things. He could make
commitments in the Presi-
dents name regarding the
quality Of the iurists who will
be named. He would be set
ting an extraordinary but
possibly good precedent by q
pledge that the minority par.
ty win be well represented.
The latter tactic was at
tempted by Mr.. Rogers at the
last session Of Congress. He
offered to appoint the judges
he wanted on q $3.50 basis,
half Democrats and half Re-
publicans. But he was too
late: the scent Of victory in
1860 was too strong.
It Is improbable that the
newly victorious Democrats
would make any such $3.50
deal now. It might be possible
to set UP o rnajorityArninority
division less drastic and win
the support Of public opinion
for It.
What Is extremely unlikely
is that Congress would ever
permit any outside body to
second-guesS 1t on the allo-
cation Of the judgeships to
the States or q proper ma.
jority.m minority ratio.

This is one Of the few times
that q public official has en-
phasized the Importance to
the country Of maintaining
the profit system" - some-
thing more accurately de-
scribed as the "profit-and-
loss system.
The President evidently felt
his audience needed to be as
sured that his administration
would not be anti-husinesS.
He started his address with
this significant comment:

ness is not represented by

ter chronological progress and
better price stability and eco

"If those of you who are in

Some foreign policy experts
In Washington are in a state
Of near-panic. They fear
the consequences Of the MUIR
der Of Patrice Lumumba,
the stormy petrol Of the Con-
go who has helped so much
to throw that unfortunate
country into a turmoil, and
go as far as to compare 1t
with the Sarajevo incident
Of 1914, when the assassina-
ton Of Archduke Francis
Ferdinand, the heir to the
throne Of the Austro- Hun
gArian EN- pire, sparked
World War !.
There Is serious concern
that the murder Of Lumum-
ba, unless quickly and care
fully handled. conceivably
might precipitate a major
conflict involving at first the
outside supporters Of the
Congolese leader such as
Ghana and Guinea and later
the great powers themselves.
Lumumba was q handy,
tool in the hands of interna-
tional communism. The So
Wet Union, Communist
China, and Russia's satel-
liteS, particularly Czechoslo-
vakia, gave him complete po-
litical support. Moscow's "af-
filates" (Yugoslavia, the
UAR and up to a point
Morocco) have done their
utmost to bolster up Russia's
policy in the Congo. Ghana
and Guinea openly threw
their newly acquired prestige
in African affairs behind
Lumumba, while neutralist
India did the same, claiming
that the former official
who had served three years
for embezzlement represent
ed the best Of democracy in
the Congo.
The Soviet Union has
selected the Congo as its
main battle-ground against
the Western colonialists-
imperialists" because the
Belgians decided. under pres
sure from their Western
allies. to rush into giving full
independence to the Con-
golese before they had become
nearly prepared for self
government.
For years the French and
British had prepared their
African colonials to rule
themselves. The present lead
ers, including men such as
Kwami Nkrumah and Sekou
Toure, who are indisputably
in the Communist camp, have
had more than q perfunctory
education. Some Of the lead
ers Of French colonies, such

public Of Senegal. Leopold
Sedar Senghor, have been
educated in Paris. Before
returning to his native land
he taught in several high
schools in France. He also has
served since l945 in the two
Constituent Assemblies of the
French Republic. The same
observation applies to all the
present leaders Of the former
African colonies Of Britain
and France. But not SO In the
Belgian Congo. Freedom
struck the Congolese like
lightning and produced utter
confusion and unprecede
misery and starvation for all
its people.
This situation, coupled
with the fact that the many
Congolese tribes were bitter
ly hostile to one another
and had been kept from
jumping at one another's
throats by the Belgian mill
tary police force. gave the
Communists a perfect ground
to make the Congo into a
Laboratory for war" and
challenge the West by sup
porting their puppet Lu-
mumba.
There Is no ooubt in the
minds Of q number Of ad-
ministration policy advisers
that the Soviet Union,

tage Of the uncertainty Of
political strategy among the
Western powers and their
fear Of a clash with the Com

ments have shown that no.
where is there nearly as
much unity among the free,
nations as among the Com
munists. who regardless Of
whatever differences may
possibly exist among them
rally to the Red flag when
ever the Kremlin decides to
unfurl it for battle.
In as far as the military
experts are concerned, they
continue firm in their con-
viction that the Soviet Union
is unwilling to go into an all
out war. They are also con-
vinced, however, that Mos.
cow and its satellites viii not
hesitate now to unleash q

that, faced with the possible

lowed by necessity by the

In his first glowing honey

crease in Federal judgeships.
That was February. 1854.
Afterward hopeful Demo-
cratic Congresses stalled on
the theory that eventually o

would get the chance to name
Democrats to all the fresh
vacancies. :.
Democrats now have the
President and the votes, but
1t Is Democrats who are com.

unfair, unequal and discrim-
inatory. The handling Of this
problem will be an early and

It falls within the area
where doubts were raised
about the wisdom Of naming
SO young q man who was

and the Presidents brother.

vately pleaded that the Job

Cowboys and wagon train

the camels. The route was
marked with runaway horses
and mules, broken bride

horses.
In San Antonio the cara
van was rested, and the
Arabs used the time to teach
Army mule skinners how to
pack and handle camels and
they were soon on the way

A close competitor to the

any Presidents proposal to
create new Federal judge
ships.
Cries Of discrimination al
ready are being raised against
President Kennedy's appeal
for SO more Of these lifetime

gency or the need: the argu-
ment for the additional jur-
lists has been made by Chief
Justice Warren, the bar asso-
