Realities Point to Recession End

phere-genuine, that is; no
President wants to create a
phony crisis.
The big problem Of the
Republicans, for their part,
is different but no less subtle.
Thus far they have followed
mainly a policy of modified
me-tooism. They have not
offered general or basic
resistance to the Kennedy
anti-recession eaSureS.
When they have criticized or
hung back they have done so
more as to details than as to
principles.
They, too, however, are now
feeling the warmth of the
improving business climate.
They, too, must now make
vital decisions. Is it now time
to begin to open up with
something approaching all-out
opposition to further Ken
nedy economic plans? Or
would such a course endanger
both the small tender recov-
cry movement itself and the
public's regard for the sound
ness of Republican economic
views?
How much can they bet on
the enduring strength of this
recovery? How far can they
go toward a return to more
orthodox economic policies of
their own without running
the risk of seeming altogether
too little at home on the
New Frontier?

United States delegation chief
appointed By President Ken

Others in Picture
Since the talks first started
here in october, 1858, France
has developed her own atomic
devices and many other nations
are thought to be approaching
the capacity to do likewise.
Any treaty reached within the
next few months would thus
have to be signed by France
and by potential nuclear ma
tions, especially Red China.
The Russians have tried in
the past to work a system of
self elf-inspection" into a test
ban treaty, insisting that each
country be in charge of its own
control posts.
The West shows no signs Of
backing down on that point,
or of allowing a control COM

tral representatives. The West

There are, for example,

Is the public to infer that
the board of trustees Of
Harvard or Yale or Princeton

proves the use Of the names
of their universities in the
public prints hereafter as an
attachment to any POLITICAL
propaganda document re-
gardless of content?
Will the parents Of stu
dents in those universities
feel any concern that some
professors holding views OF
this kind will dominate dis
cusSionS of communism in
the classroom? Will some of
the donors of funds to the
various universities begin to
harbor fears that such funds
may be used to hire profess
sors who advocate that a gag
be imposed on the free ex-
preston of ideas by a COM
mittee of Congress - espe-
cially on a topic of vital
Importance to the security
and safety Of the United
States?
These are questions that
naturally will arise now. The
professors, in their state
ment, concede that "the

but this apparently isn't
enough-they demand that
the committee be abolished
altogether, Notwithstanding
the fact that the courts

to correct any abuses in the

The late Justice Oliver
Wendell Holmes once defined
free speech" as freedom for

Delicate Phase Is Seen for Kennedy
And G. O. P.-When Recovery Sets in

corner has left every ma
tional political leader since
determined tn a t whatever
else he might do he would
never be caught looking
through glasses having much
of a rosy tint.
In the second place, Mr..
Kennedy realized that these
early days of his tenure
the period of political honey
moon - would provide him
the best opportunity he ever
would have to make certain
long-term reforms to improve
the country's long-run eco
nomic productivity.
Too, his short-term "anti-
recession" program needed
votes in Congress. Not un-
naturally, he did not exactly
mute the bad news in his
economic analysis. This pro-
gram, however, is by now
moving well, on the whole,
through Congress. AS to it,
the remaining political diff
culties are not likely to be too
serious.
Every time the general
business scene improves,
however, he may expect more
and more resistance in Con-
greSS to his long-run eco
nomic proposals. When times

strongly inclined to let things

WILLIAM S. WHITE

AS the third month of the
Kennedy administration now
opens there opens also a
political phase of singular
delicacy and danger as the
recession of 196O-61 seems
to be lifting into a brighter
Springtime.
Even the hardest of the
expert hard heads here now
are in fairly firm agreement
that the recession has reach
ed at least the beginning of
the end. There is no Polly
annaism in this forecast. 1t
is stoutly supported by sew
eral undoubted realities. One
is the fact that an eight
month-long decline in indus
trial production came all but
to a halt last month.
But if the business prospect
is improving toward a point
which might even be called
good, the political problems
for both the Democratic ad-
miniStration and its Republi-
can opposition in Congress
are made increasingly tricky
by that very fact.
President Kennedy took up
from the moment of his in
auguration a deliberately
reserved-almoSt a somber-
view of the future of the
recession. This he did for
two reasons. First of all, he
thought it far wiser to err
on the side of caution than
on the side Of hope. He be-
lieved his duty as a national
sentinel a g ainst economic
danger overmaStered his
privilege to tell his country
men that everything was
going to be better soon.
1t was, moreover, an in
evitable attitude. The luck

Not so very long ago those
persons who publicly criti-
cized the Supreme Court Of
the United States for its "de-
segregation" decision were
being accused of defiance"
Of our judicial institutions"
or of trying to undermine
their prestige" But no such
treatment probably is in
store for the $50 leading
American professors" in 79
universities and colleges who
have Just issued to the press
of the Nation a bitter state
ment criticizing the Supreme
Court.
They object to the fact
that the Supreme Court in
two successive cases has de-
clared constitutional the
right Of the House Commit
tee on Un-American Activi-
ties to require witnesses un-
der certain circumstances to
answer questions about Com
munist activities in America.
Indeed, this is today "the
law of the land"
The professors, in their
statement, contend that they
are dedicated to the prop
osition that free inquiry and
free expression nourish men
tai growth and are thus basic
to the Nations growth" But
then the same $50 professors
go on to demand the "aboli-
ton" of the House Commit
tee because they do not agree
with its expressions of opin-
ion or it's attempts to elicit
information about Commu-

implication that they believe
they have a right to carry
this type Of controversy di-
rectly to their claSSrooms.
Presumably there would be
nobody with similar knowl-
edge present on the other
side to rebut their arguments
before the students. The
professors, in their state
ment, complain that Many
teachers in the colleges and
universities, as well as in the
public schools, have grown
timid about stating, even for
classroom discussion, ideas
which someone later might
interpret as Subversive."
What the professors really
object to is the effort Of the
House Committee on Un-
American Activities to do
something which none of the
executive agencies like the
CIA or the FBI can do
namely, to expose in the
midst of the cold war" the
workings of the Communist
apparatus inside the United
States.
The professors who signed

hesitate to identify them
selves with the prestige con-

Indicts Rees

jr., was indicted today by a
Spotsylvania County Circuit
Court grand jury for the mur-
der of Carroll v. Jackson, jr.
Commemorative Attorney T.
Stokeley Coleman presented
only the one charge to the
jury. He withheld a charge of
murder in the death of Mr..
Jackson's infant daughter,
Janet. 11a.
Mr.. Coleman did not say
when he would present the
other count. Arraignment for
Rees was set for 10 am. Mon
day, July II.
Defense Attorney Joseph L.
Savage, jr., was overruled on
repeating an earlier motion to
transfer Rees from the State
Penitentiary at Richmond to
the Fredericksburg city jail.
Rees entered no plea when
the jury returned its Indictment
at 1910 pm.
Mr.. Coleman said he did not
present the charge in Janet's
death today because Virginia
law requires that a case be
tried within three court terms
after a true bill is returned.
He said he was not sure whether
he could try the case within
that time.
The jury'S bill charged Rees
with murder, and did not elab-
crate on the case.
Rees was tried in Baltimore
earlier this year before a Fed
eral. jury in connection with
the abduction Of the four mem
bers of the Jackson family who
were kidnapped in January,
1859, while en- route to their
Louisa County home. The 81
year-old Hyattsville (Md) mu-
sician was found guilty on both
counts of kidnapping Mrs. Mir
dred Jackson and Susan Anne,
5, and is under a double life
sentence.
