The Soviet Union has not been
presSuring the West in recent
weeks, and the feeling is wide
spread that having cut off the
refugees with the Wall, Mr.. Khru-
shchev is allowing the situation
to cool, waiting for another OPP
portunity to stir up the Goals of
trouble.
The Russians have alternated
"hot" and cold" policies in the
past, and observers fully expect
them to do it again. This Soviet
brink -of-War" strategy is de-
signed to frighten the world with
the Specter Of a nuclear war, and
then to seek concessions in the
name of a peaceful settlement. :"
This forces the West to be on
guard constantly against both
Soviet threats and Soviet prom
ises:
Mr.. Khrushchev has not taken
any concrete steps so far to end
the crisis. In the two Thompson
Gromyko talks, the Soviet Union
has not altered its original de-
mands at all.
This has disappointed some
officials, but most experienced
diplomats do not expect imme-
diate results from talks with the
Soviet Union. They say it may
be several weeks before there is
any change in the Soviet posi-
ton.
If Mr.. Khrushchev does no.
alter his stand, then the likeli-
hood of fighting cannot be COM
pletely discounted. To prepare
for this contingency, Western
leaders are continuing their bi-
lateral and multilateral talks.

forms of assistance will be pro-
vided to firms and employees hurt
by the import competition.
There are Stong indications
that the new trade program is
what Mr.. Kennedy would like most
from Congress this year. The ad-
miniStration'S big, Well-planned
propaganda offensive to win con-
verts to it has been under way for
weeks and has held the center
stage.
But the protectionists will have
their day on Capitol Hill and the
battle there may be a long and
bitter one.
The thing which preyS on many
uncommitted minds is the likely
extent of suffering American in
dustry and agriculture may have
to undergo if tariffs are cut
sharply. Facts on this problem
have not been abundant. The
administration has not presented
a State-by State breakdown, show
ing what industries would prob
ably be hurt and how seriously.
1t might be well advised to do
this. Then the issue could be
weighed more meaningfully.

forts in Latin America-an obvious
attack on CaStroism.
UNITED NATIONS: Taking
note of increasing criticism of the
U. N, Mr.. Kennedy said that
"our instrument and our hope"
to keep the peace is the United
Nations. If the U. N. is imper-
feet, he said, that is because the
world is imperfect.
He found the U. Ms peace
keeping strength increased in
1861, and praised its work in
the Congo. He again urged Con-
gress to approve his request for
authority to purchase up to 500
million worth of the forthcoming
U. N. bond issue.
ATLANTIC COMMUNITY: Mr..
Kennedy found grounds for con-
siderable optimism in the emer-
gence Of a new Europe, allied
closer to the United States. The
Atlantic Community grows" he
said, mot like a volcanic noun
tain, by one mighty explosion, but

ecy" about the decline of the

THE FOREIGN SCENE
A Breathing Spell in Sight on Berlin

to detach West Germany from
NATO and the Common Market.
The Soviet reasoning went
something like this:
AS long as West Germany
(Federal Republic of Germany
is a partner of the West, the
Soviet Union will never allow
a freely unified Germany.
A freely unified Germany
would be inevitably allied with
the West, against the interests
of the Soviet Union.
If West Germany is neutral
ized," however, that is, detached
from NATO, the Soviet Union
would be willing to allow uni
fled Germany in which the So
cialiSt interests of the Eastern
half would be protected.
In such a plan, West Berlin
would be merged with East Ber-
lin, and would be under the con-
troll of the East Germans.
To compensate for West Ger
many's leaving the West, the
Soviet Union would guarantee
it significant trade markets in
the East.
This type of thinking in the past
was rejected by West German
leaders for several reasons. These
include:
The East German regime is
handpicked by the Russians.
There have never been any free
elections there. Thus, if West
Germany agreed to unity with
the East Germans, it would be
in effect approving East Ger
many's lack of freedom.
Unification is important, but
can only come about through

The Economy

In 1861, Mr.. Kennedy's inherited
recession reached its low mark
early. The economy, reacting to a
combination of administration
measures and natural causes, then
began moving at better pace. Un-
employment dropped while con-
Sumer spending, labor income and
industrial production rose.
But at the close of the year
there was still hard core of about
4 million joblesS and many more
persons would join the labor
force each year. Furthermore, the
economic competition from the
European Common Market had
not yet been fully felt and there
was the continuing impact of au-
tomation to be considered.
It was these things which
prompted the President to ask for
a retraining program for displaced
workers; training program for

Defense

The President played the mill.
tary section of his speech in q
rather low key and devoted only
400 of his 5000 words to it, &C,
cording to one word counter. He
spoke in general terms for the
most part, apparently holding the
details for his budget message.
Mr.. Kennedy did reveal that
our strategic ballistic missile
force would be increased By
nearly 800 Polaris submarine
based rockets and Minutemen
1CBMS. He did not give the
breakdown, but it is believed that
90 Polarises and 200 Minutemen
are involved.
The Navy already has SO Polar
iSes at sea aboard six nuclear-
powered submarines. The Air
Force currently has a program
to place in concrete lined holes
600 Minutemen, a solid-fuel mis-
Slle like Polaris, the first of which
are scheduled to become combat
ready in the latter half of this
year.
The new budget calls for six
new Polaris submarines and long
lcad-time items for another six.
With funds already appropriated
for 20, this would mean an even
tual force of at least Al and a
total of Csc PolariSes at sea. But
depending on how Minuteman
turns out and the development
OF NATO requirements, the num-
Der of PolariS submarines could
go substantially higher.
There will not likely be any
problem over Congress approving
these missile funds. But Mr..
Kennedy's announced intention
to revise our military reserve
programs could lead to a sharp
conflict on Capitol Hill. This
would be certain if he recon-
mends cutting back the National
Guard, politically potent
institution.
The reaction on Capitol Hill to
the Kennedy message followed
party lines. Representative Albert.

called it the best he had ever
heard and said well do a good
job with it," Senator Clark, Dem
ocrat of Pennsylvania, who counts
himself as one, said the Presidents
words would gladden. the hearts
of all liberals"
Senate Minority Leader Dirk
sen had a trenchant comment on
the other side. He compared the
Presidents recommendations with
"a Sears, Roebuck catalogue with
the old prices marked up" Rep
reSentative Arends, House Repub-
ican Whip, called the message
"a political document with this
years election in mind"
There was general agreement
on one thing, however, and that
was this: The Presidents legiSla-

Talks Planned

West Germany, he said, already
is committed to negotiations on
the Berlin issue, and presently,
the Western position is being dis
cusSed in Moscow by Mr.. Thomp-
son.
Mr. Thompson spoke on Friday
with Mr.. Gromyko, again trying
to learn what the Russians really
want, and telling him how far
the West is willing to go.
At present, the Vests position
is simply to limit discussion to
Berlin. If the Russians sign a
peace treaty with East Germany,
that is their business, the West
says. However, if the Germans try
to infringe on Western rights to
Berlin, trouble might start.
President Kennedy made it clear
in his state-of the Union address
that peaceful and mutually &C
ceptable resolution" can be found
only if the Kremlin acknowledges
the Vests rights in Berlin.
Most observers agree that the
heat" definitely is off in Berlin.

THE WEEK IN PERSPECTIVE
A Kenned View Of U.S.. in the 1862 World

President Kennedy on Thurs
day delivered his second state
Of-the- Union message. He rec
commended a broad legislative
program, heavy on welfare items,
and expressed confidence on
world problems.
When John F. Kennedy, the
youngest man ever elected to the
American presidency, faced a Joint
session of Congress for the first
time last January, it was to re-
port on the state of the Union,
as he saw it.
Only few days before he had
been inaugrated. Until then he
had the effect of a United States
Senator on the destiny and we'll
being Of the republic, no more, no
less.
Perhaps eloquence is more read
lily found in grave and somber
words, in warning of peril and
crisis and in Summonings to
greater sacrifices. That was the
Kennedy of January, 1861.
Last week, while the President
lacked the same soaring rhetoric,
he found hope, confidence and the
ability to look at the brighter
side after a year at the helm.
This was evident in the message
he delivered to a joint session of
Congress in a House chamber
crowded with dignitaries, foreign
and domestic. and presided over
by a brand new Speaker, John
Mccormack of Massachusetts,, and
a relatively new Vice President,
Lyndon Johnson.
Evening star., 1962-01-14

In perhaps the most impas-
stoned part of his Thursday ad-
dress, the President pumped hard
for "a bold new instrument of
trade policy" in a five-year Trade
Expansion Act which would give
him authority to lower tariffs by
broad categories instead of item
by-item, as is now the case.
He strongly urged that the i'm
pressive success of the European
Common Market, perhaps soon to
be joined by Great Britain, be
reckoned with now and asserted:

the unity of the West, the course
of the cold war and the economic
growth of our Nation for a gen.

tories and farms can increase
their sales to their richest, fast
est-growing market. Our exports
will increase. Our balance-of-
payments position will improve.
And we will have forged across
the Atlantic a trading partnership
with vast resources for freedom"
The alternative, as painted by
the President, was a loss of mar
ket for American exporters and
a loss of jobs for American work.

Congo:

The Central Congo govern

When tie Congo received its
independence in June, 1860, it was

Its premier was a radical ma

a number of shocking outrages.

head of rich Katanga Province,

Here, first, are the major domes-

THE ECONOMY: He found
that the Nation is ION the high

investment in new machines and
equipment as an aid to American

three substantial new revenue pro-
ducers, including higher postal

sions, he asked power to cut in

strengthening of the unemploy-
ment insurance program.
TRADE: He urged new Trade
Act which would permit him to
eliminate gradually (over the next
five years. tariffs on goods on
which the United States and the
European Common Market. to-
gether, account for 80 per cent
of the worlds total, and to cut
up to so per cent on other Gus
toms duties.
WELFARE: A medicare for the
aged, paid through Social Secur-
ity, must be provided, he said. A
new welfare program "Stressing
.. rehabilitation instead of re-
lief" was promised and a mass
immunization program against
variety of children's diseases was
proposed.
DEFENSE: He will propose the
addition of nearly 300 more bal
liStic missiles for Navy and Air
Force strategic forces and an
nounced a revision of "our Re
serve programs. He outlined how
the administration had strength
ened and made more flexible our
military forces in the past year.
There were, altogether, more
than 80 domestic legislative pro-
posals, including a "comprehen-
sive" farm program. Most of them
had been discussed or proposed
before. The surprises were the
request for standby authority,
subject to congressional veto, to
cut personal income taxes and
his declaration of support for civil
rights legislation.

Foreign Items

A note of caution marked the
Presidents generally optimistic re-
port on the major trouble spots
caution reflected before by him
in comments on our responsible
ties in these areas:
BERLIN: The situation in the
brave city of Berlin" has been
virtually unchanged since Mr..
Khrushchev's original June 4 de-
mands, Mr.. Kennedy said The
United States, he said, is prepared
to talk, when appropriate, and to
fight, if necessary"
He hesitated to predict whether
or not negotiations would be fruit
ful, but said "a resolution can be
found, and with it an improve
ment in our relations with the
Soviet Union, if only the leaders
in the Kremlin will recognize the
basic rights and interests in
volved."
SOUTHEAST ASIA: Mr.. Ken
nedy reaffirmed the administra-
tons desire for a neutral and
independent Laos" Although a
workable formula has not been
achieved yet, he said both "the
spread of war and Communist
occupation have thus far been
prevented"
A settlement would help achieve
and safeguard the peace in South
Wet Nam, he said, where Com
munist SubverSion has been
stepped up. Mr.. Kennedy said
at is war of attempted sub
lection, and will be resisted" by
increased United States and Wet
Nam efforts.
LATIN AMERICA: The PreSi-
dent said the United States hem
ispheric relations gave hope for
great promise" The Alliance for
Progress has gained considerable
support, he said, and to help it
along, he proposed special long
term fund of SO billion.

Ambassador Thompson held
his second exploratory talk with
Foreign Minister GrOmykO in
Moscow last week on the ques-
tiOn of Berlin.
Two days after Christmas, Hans

sador to the Soviet Union, was

memorandum, later described
by Chancellor Adenauer as the
oldest thing in the world"
Mr. Adenauer said the memo

without signature, and without
any indication as to who wrote it,

the young Americans entering the
LABOR market and the tax-incen-
tive plan to speed modernization
of our industrial plant. Observers
give Mr.. Kennedy a better than
even chance to gain all three.
RecessionS, no matter what the
cause, are generally blamed on the
political party in power. Mr.. Ken
nedy wants new authority to COM
bat them before they really get
started-to cut income taxes and
to accelerate federally aided cap
ital-improvement program. Here,
however, the prospects that Con-
gress, jealous of its taxing au-
thority, will grant the President
his wishes is regarded as slim.
Evening star., 1962-01-14
Welfare

Lie GIcSlucllU Ildu numerous
recommendations which could 60
under the general heading of
welfare" but the key measure
for the wind-up session of the
87th Congress is medical care for
the aged under the Social Sc
curity System.
Mr.. Kennedy is absolutely COM
mitted to fight for this one. There
is mo piece of unfinished busi-
ness more important or more ur-
gent" he told Congress.
Many observers, however, be-
lieve the administration chances
of getting the bill passed are
slim. In fact, some don't believe
the measure will even clear its
first hurdle the House Ways
and Means Committee, a conServ-
ative-oriented group of is Dem
ocrats and 10 Republicans.
But if the President doesn't get
the bill, his political aides are
prepared to ease his pain with
the suggestion that the public,
which is said to favor aid through
Social Security, would blame the
Republicans at the polls next
November.
Many Republicans and con-
Servative Democrats would vote
for a medicare plan which would
not involve a compulsory tax to
finance it. But the Social Sc
eurity advocates are not likely
to agree and they have the
strength to block it.
AS for aid to education, the
Presidents less than vigorous
statement that he saw no rea-
son to withdraw his 1861 bill
limiting school construction aid
to public schools indicated to
some that he did not hold any
real hopes of getting the meas
ure adopted. Aid to colleges, how
ever, is likely to be approved.

Words of Comfort

Soviet Aim

Coming at time when Ambas-
sador Thompson was speaking for
the West in a series of eXplora-
tory talks with the Russians, the
memorandum cast considerable
doubt on Soviet intentions. 1t
seemed to indicate that the Rus
slams ultimate goal might not be
the widely publicized double Ger
man peace treaty and free city
of West Berlin.
Instead, it suggested that the
Soviet Union really wanted to
control-directly or indirectly-all

ance, however, is a tenuouS one
1t hinges on congressional ap-
proval of postal rate increases,
extension of excise and corpora
ton levies and withholding taxes
for dividends and interest.
There is chance Congress may
vote the postal increase, but there
is also the chance it may offset
this with a pay raise for postal
workers. A stiff fight over the
other revenue e-producing plans is
predicted.

free elections in all of Germany.
Until this time comes, West
Germany will make no bargains
with the East. West Germany is
committed to freedom and thus
sides with the West through
NATO and the Common Market.
Since the memorandum was
clearly an informal one-lacking
correct form-Mr. Adenauer said
his government would not an
swer it. He added, moreover, that
there was nothing in the memo
that was acceptable.
