This harsh Judgment - the

Congress - could only mean
that a considerable part of the
bloom has worn off the honey
moon between Mr.. Kennedy
and Premier Khrusl1chev.

newspaper said.
Today, Izvestia joined with
the editors of Life Abroad in
taking a much sharper tone,
especially on the problems of
disarmament and tern
Europe which are sensitive

Of the world. The Izvestia

What especially aroused Life

TURIN, Italy, Feb. 4 tAP).-
An Italian surgeon said today
there were sounds that might
have been heartbeats and
heavy breathing on q tape re-
cording of radio signals on q

elites.
The recording was made two
nights ago by Achille and
Giovan Battista Judica Cor

mails on radio receiving equip
ment they have set up in their
home to intercept American
and Russian space transmits
sions.
The same short wave signals
were monitored by the observa-
tory at Bochum, Germany.
The signals were received
before the Soviet Union an
nounced today it had launched
a giant new sputnik. The Tur-
bin brothers said the signals
were different from those they
had heard previously from

Authorities said 1t must be
assumed that Mr.. Khruschev's
policies are based on q con-
viction that Soviet power and
prestige in relation to those
Of the United States are now

Talks Long Under Way
The State Department an
nounced RuSsIa's acceptance
Of the nuclear test talk post
ponement. Representatives OF
the United States, Russia and
Britain began negotiating for
an agreement to prohibit nu-
clear weapons tests under an
international inspection syS-
tenn at Geneva more than two
years ago.
The conference was re-
cessed In early December with
an agreement to resume Feb
ruary Z. Mr.. Kennedy an
nounced II days ago he was
asking for a delay until late
March: the State Department
proposed March 81 as a new
resumption date.
The Soviet note was rela-
lively brief, officials estimated
it at fewer than 800 words. II
was read here as being civil ir
tone and free of propaganda.
1t marked the second time
that the Soviet government
had responded favorably to 9
United States request since Mr.
Kennedy took office January

both cases he contributed to an
improvement in the interna-
tional atmosphere by helping to
create what Mr.. Kennedy has
called the atmosphere OF
civility."
Washington authorities had
expected q prompt reply on the
request for a delay in test bar
talks. AS late as yesterday
morning they said privately
they were puzzled by the lack
Of response. The note Of agree

HEADLINE PERSONALITY
New NLRB Chief
Once Union Member

During the bitterness of the
auto industry sitdown strikes Of
the l930s, q lawyer-social work.
er named Frank w. McCulloch
was in Flint. Mich, as indus
trial relations secretary for the
Council Of Social Action of the
Congregational Church, seeking
to build community opinion for
q responsible settlement.
Yesterday, the same man
was named by President Ken
nedy to be chairman Of the
National Labor Relations Board,
a post that places Shim in the
center of labor management
disputes around the country.
Mr.. McCulloch's choice
pleases many union leaders.
They have known him through
the years as one who has
spok en- sympathetically to
church groups on labor prob
lens, who set up a program at
Chicago's' Roosevelt College to
train union members in social
affairs and who has been the
top staff assistant for a dozen
years to 8 Senator Douglas,
Democrat of Illinois. a leading
liberal spokesman In the Sen
ate. .-s
Once Union Member
During his teaching years,
Mr.. McCulloch was a union
member himself, belonging to
the adult education unit of the
American Federation Of Teach
ers.
Those who know him we'll
assert that it Is foreign to Mr..
McCulloch's character to take
doctrinaire positions on union
matters-or anything else. In
the matter Of drinking, for ex-
ample, an old friend says,
Frank is dry, but not a ia
natical one; he's certainly not
a bluenose."
Senator Douglas credits him
with "a high sense Of fairness"
and says. 1T is almost incredi-
BILE to see the way he will work
to avoid doing a wreng thing,
or an unkind thing to anyone.
Mr.. McCulloch, IS. came by
his political liberalism through
inheritance and study, rather
than as a result Of his own ex-
periences.
He was born in the comfort
able Chicago suburb Of Evans
ton. His parents, both lawyers.
practiced their profession to-
gether, and shared prominent
roles in Illinois Democratic
politics and the civic affairs
Of the city. His mother, a COL
lege classmate Of Jane Adams,
was a leader of the suffragette
movement, and both his par
ents were interested in settle
ment and social work.
A Harvard Man
Mr.. McCulloch practiced law
in Chicago after his gradua-
ton from Harvard, but gave
that up in 1885 to take up
industrial relations work for
his church. He also served as
a public member Of local panels
Of the War Labor Board dur
ing World War II.
He came to believe that
public opinion is a very i'm
portant factor In determining
the willingness Of parties to

The magazine said this is "a
repetition Of the hackneyed
slogans Of American propa-
ganda which by its clamor
about the ;CommtInist} menace
has attempted to cover up the
aggressive policy Of the United
States entwinfng the world with
"a net Of military bloes ringing
the USSR with military bases. "
Life Abroad also was annoyed
by Mr.. Kennedy's statements
about the Communist nations Of
EASTERN Europe. The magazine
said that although he did not
use the vocabulary of the
bankrupt dollar" about a roll
back of communism he still
urged that these countries not
be forgotten.
Ignores Arms Cut
Izvestia complained that Mr..
Kennedy's state-of the Union
message docs not even men
ton disarmament as an aim
for which one should strive
and in whose name statesmen
should spare no effort"
THE author Of the message
in general avoids the subject of
disarmament. Is this acci-
dental? No, it is not" Izvestia
said.
Turning to Eastern Europe,
Izvestia said: "It is not surpris-
ing that the power Of the
working people in those coun-
tries is not liked by. this or
that bourgeois politician. Isn't
1t better for them to realize
that the people have chosen
their present way Of Develop
ment by themselves?"

tionable, for 1t was not considered as
specific proposal during hearings. The
fact that the Senate version retains a
basic residency requirement of one year,
however, as provided in the House bill,
should help bring about agreement.
Likewise, the Senate adopted the House
provision for voting age of 81, over
turning in the process the recommen-
dalton of its own District Committee for
a minimum voting age of 10. This was
scarcely surprising, since the voting age
currently is set at 81 in all but four
States
AS far as most WashingtonianS are
concerned, the point of overriding i'm
portance is that both the House and
the Senate now have passed realistic
and carefully-drawn bills during the
same year in which the 23d amendment
was ratified by the States. We are con-
tent to leave the details of agreement
to the conferees, in the hope that they
will be resolved quickly enough to per-
NIT the District Elections Board to
begin formulating detailed voting reg
ulationS this year.

His Brothers Keeper

In the tragic story of Nazi perSe-
cution of the Jews, there is little enough
to find that is inspiring or hopeful. One
exception, however-an exception largely
overlooked in the Recommendation of
NaZi genocide-were the many instances
in which members of Christian faiths
expended every effort during that dark
period, often at the risk of their own
lives, to save their fellow human beings.
It is in recognition of these heroic
acts that special observance will be
held at the John Marshall Hotel
in Richmond on Sunday, october l,
initiated by members of the Jewish
faith but sponsored jointly by church
men of all faiths in that community.
The inter-faith sponsoring committee,
in an explanation of the purpose of the
meeting, declares that along with the
crimes of the Nazis "it is equally i'm
portant to record that portion of those
black hours which deals with tangible
evidence that man does respond to the
Judaic- Christian charge that he is,
indeed, his brothers keeper"
These were heroes well worth COM
memorating. But even more significant,
perhaps, is the heartening thought that
the religious leaders of various faiths
in Richmond have seen fit to gather
together for such an observance at this
time.

Riders or Drivers?

New York City's Mayor Bob Wagner,
big winner in the recent Democratic
primary, may have to screen the riders,
or perhaps the drivers, on his band
wagon as closely as Fidel Castro is
screening Cuban ennigrants. Despite his
loud and repeated assertions that he
wants no help from party bosses" in
his campaign against Republican
mayoralty candidate Louis Lefkowitz,
two of those so labeled in the peculiar
political jargon Of the big city have
climbed aboard.
Representative Charles A. Buckley,
recognized as the boss of the Bronx,
and Joseph T. Sharkey, holding COM
parable power in Brooklyn, have been
prompt in pledging support Of their
county organizations to the Mayor.
Both were unequivocal in their primary
opposition, but their personal unfriend-
illness toward Mr.. Wagner then was no
greater than his in return. Indeed, Mr..
Wagner has been demanding that Mr..
Sharkey be tossed out of his 21-year
post as majority leader of the City
Council.
Actually, this power poker game in
New York City'S Democracy IS not really
ended. Mr.. BuckleyS county committee,
for example, along with its belated in
dorSement of Mr.. Wagner, has added
that If he cor any others try to splinter
or disunite the Democratic party, he
and they will fail, for the Democratic
party has and will continue to survive
any Mayor" From this distance, it is
becoming a little difficult to identify
who is trying to diSunite what. Pre-
Sumably, the bandwagon will end up
successfully at City Hall, but 1t is not
so certain who will be holding the right
reinS.

Voice From the Conqo

In wild and irrational speech,
Cyrille Adoula, Premier of the Congo,
has blamed the capitalist powers" for
the death of Dag HammarSkjold. And
this assassination" the Premier said
in Leopoldville, "iS not the first of its
kind perpetrated by the money powers"
While this ranting was going out
over the air waves, eight Russian
diplomats, expelled from the Congo
year ago, were moving back to Leopold
vile. Doubtless they will be welcomed,
If not by Mr.. Adoula, then certainly by
his left-wing deputy, Antoine Gizenga.
The import of this, it seems to us,
is that the Congolese government, If
not already Communist dominated, is
moving in the Communist direction.
And If this is the case, why in the world
are we supporting the United Nations
effort to force Noise TShombe'S Katanga
province back into the Leopoldville fold?
-. At best, 1t is extremely doubtful
that there was any authority or justi-
fication for the use of U. N. troops in
the ill-adviSed effort to end Katanga'S
secession from the Congo-an effort
which now has ended unsuccesSfully in
a ceaSe-fire. And If Premier Adoula'S
speech is a fair indication of the shape
of things to come, the mont Communist
u. N countries will be cutting their own
Threats by lending further support to
this effort. Whatever may be President
TShombe'S faults, it now appears that he
had ample reason to resist the attempt
by the Leopoldville regime to take con-
troll Of Katanga. Instead Of trying to
help Subdue him, it may well be that the
West, to the extent that it was going
to become involved, should have been
supporting the Tshombe resistance.

Up to the Conferees

The long and comprehensive debate
which preceded Senate approval of the
District elections bill demonstrated
more than determination that Wash
ingtonians shall have the right to vote
for President and Vice President in
1854 1t also reflected an effort to make
the new elections law model of its
kind, which might serve to stimulate
reforms in other voting Jurisdictions as
we'll.
This was particularly true in the
area of local reSidency requirements,
which serve indirectly to diSfranchise
millions Of Americans throughout the
Nation in every election. AS expected,
the Heating Kefauver drive to install
a reSidency requirement of only 90 days
was the major bone of contention. We
believe such a period would have been
reasonable to approve. While this effort
was rejected, much of its substance was
Salvaged in the Senate by the adoption
of the Miller amendment, which would
allow residents of less than one year
to vote in the District if they are able to
certify their qualification to vote in the
States from which they came, and If
they meet other voting requirements.

King No. z

When Roger Maris slammed third
inning home run deep into the right
field stands at Baltimore last night, the
stage was set for one of the great
moments in baseball But time ran out,
the Ruthian mark Of go which was set "a
years ago remained intact and Roger
MariS, for the moment at least, had to
content himself with being only the
second ball player ever to hit as many
as SO homerS in season.
To many. as far as 1861 is concerned,
he never will be more than that. For
there will be thoSe-BaSeball Commits
Sioner Ford Prick included-who will not
count beyond 154 games in any head-to-
head comparison with the mighty Babe.
BY MariS' own reckoning, however,
the final eight games are all-important.
For the essential and entirely plausible
point he insists upon is that future
seasons will cover 1862, not 154, games
And If Roger can hit as many as two
more homers within the next week it will
be his record, not Babe Ruth's, at which
the sluggers Of the future will have to
shoot
So here's tip of our hat to Maris.
If he has not quite matched the greatest
feat of the Babe land we must admit to
a nostalgia twinge of satisfaction that
he HASN'T, he nevertheless has an
excellent opportunity to set different,
modern-d day record which would stand
quite solidly on its own merits. We hope
he makes it.
