Red Shokeup

Matyas Rak0si and other for
mer Communist leaders were
expelled by the Hungarian Com
munist Party last week in a
new wave of "de- -StalinizatiOn."
Premier Khrushchev's secret
speech to the 1856 Twentieth
Party Congress was a scathing
attack on Stain and Stains
brutal methods. 1t was meant as
a turning point in Soviet society,
and an end to the cult of the
personality and extreme police
state tactics.
Despite its secrecy, the speech
had shattering effects beyond the
Soviet borders. Nowhere did it re-
ceive more attention than in
Hungary. probably because no
other satellite had as ruthless
Stalinist system.
The head of the Hungarian
state and party was MatyaS
Rakosi, a brilliant, but ruthless
dictator. In the years from 1949
to 1858, Rakosi imprisoned Or
sent to their deaths, hundreds of
Hungarian leaders. many of whom
had formerly been top officials
Of the Communist Party. Among
his purged victims was JanoS
Kadar, now Hungary'S top Com
munist.

Politics.:
ACompoigner

President Kennedy last week
indicated he would take an ac-
tive part in the Democratic
political campaign this fall.
During the last so years. the
party which has held the White
House has only once made gains
in the congressional off year
elections. That was in the salad
days of the New Deal in 1884,
when Franklin D. Roosevelt was
nearing the crest of his popularity
and the long slow climb out of
the depths of the depression was
under way.
In that year the Democrats
picked up nine House seats.
modest increase. and Surpris-
ingly equal number in the Senate.
Neither Mr.. Roosevelt nor the
equally popular Dwight D. Eisen-
hover, later, was able to duplicate
or approach this achievement.
This fall, there is a new chal-
lenger, John F. Kennedy. A stu
dent of history and man who
is particularly conscious of the
part he is playing in making it.
he is determined to rewrite the
elections record books this fall by
helping to increase the big Demo-
cratic majorities in both the House
and Senate.
Evening star., 1962-08-26
Ordered Out

In the spring of 1856, Mr..
Khrushchev ordered Rakosi to re-
sign his office. He was replaced
by Ernoe Geroe, a protege.
Rakosi's resignation touched off
series of anti-Stalin episodes
that eliminated in the ill-fated
october revolution.
Unlike the moderate Polish re-
volt the same autumn, the Hun
garian revolution aimed at
radically severing Hungary's ties
with the Soviet Union. Imre Macy
called for naturalization" and
withdrawal from the Warsaw Pact.
This led to angry Soviet inter-
vention, and the subsequent ar
rest and execution of Macy and
three of his aides.
The Kadar government, how
ever, has been a relatively mod
crate one. Observers say among
the satellites Hungary is second
only to Poland in the degree of
intellectual freedom permitted.
Mr.. Kadar was handpicked by Mr..
Khrushchev, and has been on best
of terms with him.

Plans Trips

In addition, the President dis
closed that he would be de
voting some of my time in Octo-
Der and in late September" to
frankly partisan campaigning.
Besides the desire to elect a
Congress more to his liking. the
President is driven by two other
apparent considerations.
He wants to do all he can to
cut down two potential Republican
presidential candidates-Gov. Nell
son A. Rockefeller of New York.
who is seeking reelection, and
former Vice President Richard M.
Nixon, who is running for the
governorship of California.
And he would like to arrest his
own skidding personal popularity
in the country at large. The latest
major poll showed that 66 per
cent Of those questioned approve
of the way he is handling the
job Of President as against 79
per cent last March.
What are the prospects for Mr..

Evening star., 1962-08-26

He recently returned from a
"non-political" trip to South Da-
kota, Colorado and California
where he inspected and dedicated
dam sites where. while he
was at it. he turned on the Ken
nedy charm-power in behalf of
embattled Democratic congress
sional and gubernatorial candi-
dates.
The Presidents legislative pro-
gram has been undergoing rough
handling in Congress and this has
bolstered his determination to help
candidates who will support it.
His Illustration and diSappoint-
ment with Congress was perhaps
best indicated on his trip when
he told crowd in Pierre, s. OAK:
"I want to express my great
pleasure and tell you what a
privilege it is to leave Washing
ton these days"
Administration insiders say that
the President got a morale-boost-
ing shot in the arm from mingling
with enthusiastic crowds on his
cross-country trip. They say he is
planning participation in the off,
year campaign greater perhaps
than any President before him.
Mr.. Kennedy was less definite
when asked personally about this
at his news conference Wednes-
day. With a straight face he said.
II thought the non-political trip
of last week end was useful" and
added that he was considering
another "non-political" tour of
urban centers-Chicago, Cleve-
land and Philadelphia have been
mentioned-early in September.
Evening star., 1962-08-26
The Nominations

The bureau had accepted nomi-
nations from different areas, and
from different political parties,
willing to merge with the FIN
National Liberation 'FRONT.' and
made the selections. The election
is for a constituent assembly
which is to draw up a constitu-
ton and then fade out of
existence.
Despite the rigged aspect Of the
election, many observers think the
list adequately reflected the diff
ferent national points of view.
Frenchmen have been impressed
by the way the FIN has handled
the Communists. forbidding them
to run on its ticket.
In France itself, a sequel to the
Algerian War almost had tragic
results for President de Gaulle. A
volley of bullets. believed fired by
bitter Secret Army officers, was
pumped into Mr.. de Gaulle'S car,
but he escaped injury. The at
tempt spurred French newspapers
to suggest creation of a vice presi-
dent, a Ia American.

Old Agreement

The West bases its contentious
on 1914 and 1945 allied agree
ments setting up the Kommanda-
tura to rule all of Berlin. The West
blames the Soviet Union for the
breakdown in the control body,
but insists on its rights in Berlin.
Thus, American vehicles daily cross
the Wall and drive around, for no
other purpose than to show its
contempt for the Wall.
The Western note further re-
minded the Soviet Union that it
could not unilaterally change the
wartime agreements, and that the
West would still hold the Rus
slams responsible for developments
in Berlin.
On Friday, the United States
sent a convoy from West Ger
many to West Berlin. It encoun-
tered no interference, indicating
that for the present, the Russians
were not planning any major in
cidentS.
Secretary Of State Rusk met
with Soviet Ambassador Dobrynin
and urged an immediate low-level
Big Four meeting to ease ten
sions, but the Soviet government
has remained silent about such
talks. Apparently, the Soviet gov
ernment wants to keep nerves on
edge for the present..

On Poll Tax

Then, in addition to the farm
and drug measures. he listed
the anti-poll tax constitutional
amendment; the trade expansion
bill-"the most important meas
ure to be considered by many a
Congress q United Nations
bond bill to permit more Ameri-
can financial aid to the inter-
national organization.
Doubtless history would remem-
Der the 87th Congress If it enacted
the Presidents bill to liberalize
trade and allow this Nation to
cooperate with the fabulous Eu-
ropean Common Market. Elimina-
ton Of the poll tax as a prere-
quisite for the exercise Of voting
rights also would be noted, even
though only five States now have
such q tax.
The chances are that both these
measures will be approved, al
though the trade bill might be
softened some by protectionist
pressure in the Senate.
But aside from these measures,
assuming their passage, the 87th
will not blaze many new or sig
nificant trails. Even should all of
Mr.. Kennedy's big Five" and his
controversial tax revision measure
pass, many observers will ques-

Good News

Mr.. Kennedy, who has not had
much to cheer about as far as
congressional treatment of his
1862 legislative program is con-
cerned. could only have been
pleased by the Senate's accom-
plishments for the week.
On Wednesday, the President
listed five measures he especially
wanted to see enacted. telling Con-
gress it would compile a VERY
impressive record" If it did so, and
the farm and drug bills were
among them.
He has been chided in the past
for not segregating his real pri-
critics in terms Of legislation.
Nearly every proposal he has made
is vital" or important" or "ur-
gent" In talking to his news
conference, he did not entirely
escape from this habit, but he
focused on five measures. Thus,
he said:
There are many bills Of
great Importance pending before
Congress. I want to take this OPP
portunity to stress five particularly
important measures which will be
acted upon shortly"
Evening star., 1962-08-26
NucIeor Ban

AS result. the big powers spent
most of their time discussing
nuclear test ban. This is relatively
simple to police, and is of major
concern to the fallout- ut-frightened
neutralS.
The talks, largely held in private
by the United States, Great Brit
ain and the Soviet Union, failed to
reach any agreement. Vastly v.
Kuznetsov and Arthur H. Dean
told the delegates last week that
their differences were as great as
ever. They stem mainly from the
United States inSiStence on inter
nationally controlled detection
stations and a few inspections
each year of suspected tests.
Now in the midst of a nuclear
test series, the Soviet Union seems
in no mood for a test ban. Some
optimists hope that a ban will be
possible next year. after the cur
rent series is over.
The disarmament conference re-

Arms: A New
St0Iemdte

The 17-natiOn disarmament
conference agreed last week to
recess from September 8 until
November IL.
A Soviet diplomat was asked re-
Gently about the chances for space
cooperation between the United
States and the Soviet Union.
LAS long as both nations are
armed for war, 1t is foolish to
expect us to let you visit our
rocket Sites" he said. "Disarma-
ment must come first"
And what are the chances for
disarmament with international
control?" he was asked.
How can there be inspection"
he replied, so long as there is
the unsettled question Of Berlin?"
His views echoed those made by
Premier Khrushchev that progress
in disarmament and space CO.
operation depend largely on the
political outcome of the Berlin
crisis. This is the carrot dangling
in front Of the West.
Evening star., 1962-08-26
The Pattern

In the past, such "hot" spells
have been followed by cooler"
periods. No one knows if the pat
tern will be followed. But one way
the Russians could ease tensions
would be a conciliatory speech at
the United Nations by Premier
Khrushchev, perhaps turning over
the problem to the U. N.
Rumors have been circulating
for weeks about such a possibility,
and President Kennedy was asked
at his press conference whether
he would meet with Mr.. Khru-
shchev if he showed up in New
York.
Mr.. Kennedy said he would
hope" to meet the Soviet leader.
This may have the effect, some
observers think, Of encouraging
Mr.. Khrushchev to make the trip.
He attended the U. N. session in
1860, shocking everyone with his
Shoe-pounding demonstration.
For the time being, few officials
wanted to predict Mr.. Khru-
shchev's intentions. If he decides
to visit the U. N, the Berlin issue
may become showed aside in favor
of the perennial disarmament
problem.
Or, perhaps feeling cocky as a

Old Charges

Thus, it was not surprising last
week when the Hungarian Com
munist Party resurrected the
charges of cult of the personality
against the Rakosi-Geroe clique.
Mr. Khrushchev had spoken out
strongly against Soviet Stalinists
(Molotov ct all at the Soviet
22d Party Congress last fall. And
Hungary has a Party Congress
this November.
Undoubtedly, the Hungarian
leadership-like Mr.. Khrushchev
plans to use this issue as a

Optimism

Western officials, however, feel
some progress can be made in dis
armament regardless of Berlin.
President Kennedy, for instance,
believes a nuclear test ban, ade-
quately policed. could reduce ten
sionS and perhaps lead to a Berlin
solution.
For more than five months, ne
gotiators from East and West,
spurred on by eight active neu-
traliSts, have been meeting in &C.
neva to talk disarmament.
On the question of disarmament
itself, the conference was stale
mated from the start. This is such
a large and complex subject that
any progress, under the best of
circumstances, would take months
to negotiate.

move prevents the West from pre-
tending" that Berlin is ruled by
the four-power agency. The Rus
slams have accused the West of
using West Berlin as, q ''NATO
base" under the guise Of the oc-
cupation status. The Russians say
East Berlin is part Of East Ger
many, and the West should evac-
uate West Berlin, making it a
free city"
Since the Soviet Union kept
control over the access routes, the
West was not worried Immediately
by the developments. In q note on
Thursday. the West affirmed their
war-won rights in Berlin.
In sharp words, the West said:
Despite the illegality of the wall
and the brutality Of the East Ger
man authorities in preventing the
inhabitants of East Berlin from
leaving that area. Berlin remains
a single city. No unilateral action
by the Soviet government can
change that"
Evening star., 1962-08-26
New Development

BY the end Of the week, tempers
had cooled considerably. The
crowds had thinned. and no one
paid much attention to the Rus
sian changing Of the guard. A
new development, however, tended
to keep tensions high.
This was the Soviet announce
ment on Wednesday that it was
closing down the office Of its
commandant in East Berlin, and
transferring his functions "tem-
porarily" to the Soviet high COM
mand in Potsdam, near Berlin.
The Soviet note was followed
by an East German announce
ment that Mai. Gen. Helmut
Poppe was now the commandant
in East Berlin.
The meaning Of this switching
of commandants was not entirely
clear. Some tentative conclusions
were drawn. however.
l. BY switching command to
PotSdam, the Russians kept con-
troll over the important access
routes to West Berlin. The Vests
chief concern during the Berlin
crisis has been that the Russians
would sign a peace treaty with
East Germany and give it con-
troll over the access routes.
Since the West refuses to recog-
nize East Germany, such a move
could lead to trouble If Allied
traffic was interfered with. East
Germans, however, already control
the civilian traffic to West Berlin,
which amounts to 95 per cent of
the total.
2. BY turning over control of
East Berlin to an East German,
the Russians apparently wanted
to reinforce their position that
East Berlin is part of East Ger
many and that East Germans have
control of it. The West considers
Berlin the responsibility Of the
big powers as a result of war
time agreements.
