PARIS

To an observer IN Europe
the parallels between Berlin
and Cuba are striking and al
most certainly not conciden-
tai.
1t may sound far-fetched
and possibly slightly heret-
ical to say so. But in terms
Of cold power politics-which
are the terms under which
the Russians are inclined to
look at things-the conflict
ing interests involved in each
case are not dissimilar.
Berlin lies deep within the
Russian sphere Of influence
or, to put it more plainly.
Communist controlled terri
tory. For the West to main
tain q .bastion there is -
as President Eisenhower once
too candidly admitted to
Premier Khrushchev-an abb
normal state Of affairs.
Cuba lies just as decidedly
within the American sphere
of influence. The presence
Of a Communist government
Just off our shores, as a num-
Der Of Republican Senators
have recently pointed out, is
unnatural, too. Undoubtedly
it violates the spirit Of the
Monroe Doctrine. But the
Monroe Doctrine was written
before the age Of nuclear
warfare.
The West maintains its
position in Berlin by what
amounts, in the final analy-
sis, to a threat of nuclear
war If this position is at
tackled by force. Mr.. Khrush-
chev maintains communism
in Cuba.-or so he would like
to make everyone believe
by threatening us with nu-
clear war If we try to bust
Fidel Castro.
Neither side Is outwardly
impressed with the threats Of
the other. Mr.. Khrushchev
confides that the West will
never go to war for Berlin and
that he will go ahead with
his plans for liberating the
city when he gets around
to 1t. Secretary of State
Rusk assures reporters that
we are a great country, not
to be faxed by Russian
rocket-rattling and that
"We1l proceed as we find
necessary" so far as Cuba
is concerned.
Here, however, the paral-
lei ends abruptly.
Accidental VS.. Intentional
The West finds itself in
Berlin more by accident than
by design. The situation that
exists there was never sup
posed, in the minds of
Western planners, to have
come about.
Determined as they may be
to protect their rights and
the people of West Berlin,
Western leaders with few
exceptions continue to look
on Berlin as q point of
dangerous exposure. And the
effort of allied diplomacy for
several years has been to try
to reduce the danger and the
element Of "provocation" to
a minimum.
Mr.. Khrushchev.' on the
other hand, is in Cuba by
very deliberate choice. His
support Of Mr.. Castro, his
commitment to the survival
of his regime and his threats
go far beyond what might
have been expected In the
case of a small, remote and
at the outset-not even

THE Monroe Doctrine has
outlived its usefulness. It
has died q natural death"
These words. uttered by
Premier Khrushchev in 1860,
presaged and now illumine his
plans for Cuba. He confided
to the venerable American
. poet Robert Frost that he was
convinced that the American
Government would sit first
on one hand and then the
other" while the Monroe
Doctrine was being reduced to
a worthless scrap Of paper by
the acknowledged master Of
the fait accompli.
Senator Capehart of, Indi-
ana in what may be q re-
markable process of mental
smosis from David Law
renee, has outlined the cur
rent ponderables for the
United States In regard to
Cuba:
Between 5000 and 5000 So
Wet personnel arrived in
Cuba, in five Soviet ships,
during the last four days Of
July alone (current estimates
run in excess Of 5000 totaD.
and IL cargo ships arriving
at the same time, with eye
witness reports Of the unload
ing Of trucks, tanks and
truck-trailers.
The Monroe Doctrine,
articulated 139 years ago
upon the specific provocation
of Imperialist Russia's pur-
suit of the fur trade across
the Bering Strait, down Alas
ka to the Northwest territory,
states clearly that the United
States Should consider any
attempt on their part to
extend their (the European
Powers) system to any por-
ton Of this hemisphere as
dangerous to our peace and
safety" and elsewhere, THE
American continents are
henceforth not to be consid-
cred as subjects for future
colonization by any European
powers"
With President Kennedy
indicating the continued va
lidity Of the Monroe Doctrine,
there remains the choice of
augmentation. Some polit-
ical al alysts have enter
tanned the illusory hope that
as long as the United States
maintains Guantanamo Bay
as a naval installation, its
presence would be a deterrent,
However. others have pointed
out that the simple expedient

This is a plea to the

stand the recent statements
that I read to the effect that
If we build some subways

highways and bridges. New
York, Philadelphia, Boston
and Chicago have had sub
ways for years, but they also

do as much for the District

ALCOA PASSENGER-FREIGHT SERVICE

ALCOA HAS done it again. It is now scheduling regular
freighter saiings to these Islands. And most interesting is
that these ~freighters will have comfortable accommodations
for about a dozen passengers. That is good news.
WITH ALL the propeller-driven planes, the jets and the
like, there still ought to be an opportunity for the more leisure
", restful trip to and from New York. With this new service,
opportunity is provided to head north by sea, and back by
water, or the other way around. In this way the traveller could
combine rest and business, and yet not lose too much time.
OF COURSE, the regular schedule Of freighters fills a
great need in view Of the heavy freight traffic between these
Islands and the mainland. Time was when the freight service
was sporadic, when shippers took their chances, and waited
until some vessel was heading in this direction. Now that il
changed, and with the announcement of a schedule, there il
even improvement in the commerce picture.
AS DUN businss people, Acoa must have surveye
the matter carefully and known that the providing of passen
ger service would be a need. 1t follows, therefore, that many
on the mainland and in these Islands may take advantage Of
this service. These boats, the chances are, will always sail
out not only with freight, but with a full list Of passengers
AS H population increases, as business develops, and
more and more people come and go, transportation takes or
even greater importance. Every possible means of communi
cation must be available to us, and on a constant basis. 1t is
therefore a sound move, and one which these Islands must
realize as sound, that Alcoa has improved its schedule Of
~freighters to these shores.
EVE THOUGH each vessel will carry only a small
number of passengers, this, too, is the kind of added servic
which wins our appreciation. Mayit continue = and develop

MAKING ELLIEs THE MODERN WAY
by Mrs Amy Mackay

In grandmother's days she had to have both skill and experience
in order to be a successful jelly maker. She had to experiment with
different kinds Of fruit to find out which were the good jenying"
fruits. She had to guess at the amount of sugar she would need. Then
she had to boil the mixture until it reached the Jelly stage, using
tests that were not always reliable, But with all her experience
she could never be sure that every batch Of jam or jelly would be
successful every time.
Today anyone can make delicious jelly with any kind of fruit
and with a minimum Of effort. Science has sinpiied and controlled
ielly-making methods SO that even the beginner can be sure of sue
cess. Guess work and long slow cooking have been eliminated.
TODAY we use the short-boil method Wsing added Pectn) that
has revolutionized In this time-saving method, the fruit is prepared,
then the jam, jelly, or marmalade mixture is brought to a fl roll
I'M and sbolled only / minute! This short boil is just enough to steri
lie the mixture and prevent spolage. Without added pecttn, most
telHes and Jams must be boiled 90 to 80 minutes in order to concen-
trate the mixture to the point where proportions of fruit acid, sugar
and NATURAL pectin are in the right balance to make the mixture "jelI"
When the modern jeny-maker makes jelly the short-boil way she
is not limited to using only good jelying' fruits. She uses Certo
or Sure Jell and recipes that assure the correct ration OF fruit acid
srpar and pectin. no matter what fruit is used. She has learned the
advantages of the easy, time-savng, short-boil methods.

w. ak on Water

WASHINGTON R -- Three men dressed iE battle uniforms and car rying carbines walked on the water of the Pentagon lagoon yesterday.
 A group of spectators including several Army generals who appar- ently came to the demonstration out of curiosity since the military so far has no official interest in the water shoes sold commercial ly for recreational purposes for the past three summers.
 Spokesmen for the manufactur- ing company said no contracts with the armed forces have been award ed = but they also explained and demonstrated in detail how the shoes might be used by soldiers for river crossing or jungle water way maneuvering.
 A pair of shoes, each five feet long, can support a weight lip to $50 pounds. The material is the so-called urethane foam, produced by the National Aniline Division of Allied Chemicals, and contains tiny air cells to produce the flo- tation effect. It is used for a variety of purposes, including safety Notation for boats.
 The walking actually is shuff- ling motion, similar to skiing. It IS possible for a man using these shoes to move at a speed up to three miles an hour.

HOUSE CKEHS oNE-MoNTH APPROPRIATION MEASURE

WASHINGTON R - An ener- gency one month appropriation bill for all government agencies was passed by the House by voice vote yesterday and sent to the Senate.
 It followed the standard form of past years in which the new fiscal year, starting on July l, arrived without the annual money bills having been sent to the President.
 The bill would provide limited funds for the month of July. An other measure probably will be necessary late in July because the outlook is that many regular money bills will not have bsen passed by that time
