Russians Support Picking

Mr.. Nehru sought military aid
from the West after the Soviet
Union announced its support for
China's cease-fire proposal, plan
totally unacceptable to India.
Peking asked both sides to with
draw 12,5 miles from the line of
control" but Mr.. Nehru says this
would be acknowledging Chinese
conquestS.
IT is considered likely that Mos
COW was disturbed by the Chinese
attacks on its Indian friends, bat
it was not able to criticize the
Chinese action without losing all
influence in Asiatic Communist
affairs. Peking's beligerence, in
fact, is widely interpreted as an
attempt to reveal Moscow'S IN
ability to control China.
The United States is quite hap
by to have India-at least tenn
porarily-seeking military aid, and
is helping it out as well as it can.
The airlift that started Friday
should help the Indians out,
especially in the category of NOR
tar and automatic weapons. Brit
ain, as a Commonwealth partner,
also is sending aid, and may even
send some troops.
midas situation would be i'm
proved even further if she could
end her long-standing feud with
Pakistan over Kashmir. This would
free her army from duty on the
PakiStan border.
BY the end of the week there
was an ominous lull in. the fight
ing along the Himalayan frontier,
as both sides tried to regroup.
The onset of winter probably will
slow down fighting in that area,
and lead to renewed attempts by
neutral groups to reconcile the
two Asian giants.

As Red Base

For the short run, the United
States recognizes that even if the
Russians (and the Cubans) agree
to all the American demands
about inspection and dismantling,
Cuba will remain a Communist
base. The old political arguments
about allowing a Red island to
exist will be revived, and undoubt-
edly there will be incidents with
eXileS.
A policy is needed regarding
Americana Cuban relations. Should
the United States continue to boy
colt Cuba or should efforts be
made to WOO her from the Soviet
bloc, in the Tito manner? How
much help should be given the
Cuban exiles? How can Castro be
overthrown, except by force?
Washington also hopes that the
cordial Soviet attitude on Cuba
can be carried over into other cold
war issues. Most observers believe
a nuclear test ban agreement could
be signed soon-the two nations
disagree only over technical de-
tails Of inspecting underground
explosions.
Some observers, moved more by
hope than facts. believe that Mos
cows diSagreements with Picking,
as evidenced by China's attacks
on India, might lead the Russians
to sort Of detente with the West.
Assuming the details Of the
inspection can be arranged-if not,
the blockade and surveillance will
continue-Washington will turn
its sights again toward Berlin.
Chancellor Adenauer will arrive
in Washington on November IA
for talks on this important issue.
Perhaps, new effort will be made
to reach a working agreement with
the Russians on this potential
danger spot.

Kennedy Praise

The President said he well
coined Mr.. Khrushchev's STATES
manlike decision" to dismantle
the missiles in Cuba and to return
them to the Soviet Union under
verification. This was a "wel-
come and constructive contribu-
ton to peace" He indicated that
the United States would carry out
its part of the bargain once the
Russians fulfilled their pledge.
The rapid exchange of notes
produced considerable relief in
Washington, where war had
seemed possible less than "a hours
earlier. Around the world, Presi-
dent Kennedy and Premier Khru-
shchev were both applauded for
Saving the peace" and if score
were kept, the United States
might have gained a few diplo-
matte points.
Just as the Kennedy speech on
Monday strained cold war ten
sions to the breaking point, the
Sunday exchange of letters re-
Taxed them considerably. Some of
f1cials warned that until an inter-
national agreement was signed
and sealed at the U. NJ, the Cuban
crisis was FAR from settled.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-11-04

this leaves him limited amount
of maneuverability. 1t is now a
>debatable question. who needs
whom more? The Russians or the
Cubans?
Possibly, Mr.. Castro will try to
make peace with the Americas,
but knowing his fierce pride, this
is unlikely. More probable is a
change in the Cuban leadership
from within-a government that
might try to lead a neutralist line
like that of Mexico's.

but not all-of the confusion had
been explained. Much depended,
however, from where you were

The Issue

Despite the objections of all
but his own political party, Mr.. de
Gaulle was asking the nation to
approve a constitutional amend
ment which would allow future
presidents to be elected by direct
suffrage rather than by the in
direct "notablesIs system employed
now.
The parties objected on two
counts. Since the French Presi-
dent already has the power to dis
solve Parliament. a strong preSi.
dent elected directly by the people
might someday become a dictator.
The second, more cogent argu-
ment, was that Mr.. de Gaulle was
violating the Constitution by 60
ing directly to the people, by
passing Parliament.
The unconstitutionality of the
referendum has been noted by
juristS, politicians, professors and
journalists, but MIR. de Gaulle,
with the backing of his cabinet,
was determined to bypass the
Parliament and the "old parties"
and indictments"
With his love of France goes an
uncompromising hatred of politi-
cal pickering and party strife.
Thus, he wants future Presidents
to be above the political turmoil.
His plan led to a violent fight
in the National Assembly and a
vote OF no confidence in the gov
eminent. Mr.. de Gaulle accepted
the challenge and dissolved the
Parliament. announcing new cleo.

The Experts

But while the experts were
contending, in effect, that Cuba
would have no significant over
all effect on the elections out
come-barring a war or a sudden
diplomatic defeat for the United
States - candidates and their
sponsors in both parties last week
continued to cite the Caribbean
crisis as a principal reason why
they or their party colleagues
should be elected.
Although Mr.. Kennedy and his
cabinet remained sidelined from
the fray at the Presidents di-.
rection, Democratic speak er S
hailed the latter's "firmness" in
demanding that the Russians re-
move their missile bases from
Cuba and the decision to do SO
by Soviet Premier Khrushchev.
Republicans, on the other hand,
while they applauded Mr.. Ken
nedy's toughness in the circum-
stances, could not help remind the
voters that they had been calling
for such firmness for long months
and were called "warmongers" by
the Democrats for their efforts.
They also asserted that if the
President had not shown timidity
at the time of the Bay of Pigs
invasion 10 months ago, the
Cuban situation might have been
liquidated by this time and with
out a direct conformation with
the Soviet Union and the conse-
Quent grave risk of nuclear war.
One of the principal Republicans
to concentrate on the Cuban sit
uation was former President Eli
senhower. Speaking in behalf of
New York Gov. Nelson A. Rookie
Teller, who is seeking reelection
against Democrat Robert M. Nor
genthau, Gen. Eisenhower de-
clared in Syracuse, Tuesday, that
the current military readiness of
the Nation would not exist if it
were not for the modernization
of our armed forces during his
eight years in the White House.
He added:

France:
A New Chance

President de GaulIe last week
received a majority from the
French people on his plan to
elect future presidents by de
rect suffrage. He said he would
remain in office.
On October Is. ten days before
last Sundays referendum, Presi-
dent de Gaulle put the issue to
the French nation:
IF your answer is mo- or
even if the yes majority is weak,
mediocre, uncertain, it is quite
obvious that my task will pc
Immediately and irretrievably ter
minated. For what could I do
then, without the warm conf
dence of the nation?"
His proposition touched off q
typical French numbers game.
Politicians and journalists were
trying to figure at what point a
majority would be considered
weak, mediocre, uncertain" by
Mr.. de Gaulle and lead to his
resignation. In previous referenda,
Mr.. de Gaulle had received ma
jorities of 70, rs and 80 per cent
of the votes cast.
The previous referenda were
held during and Immediately
after the Algerian War, however.
Since Mr.. de Gaulle had taken
office in May. 1858, to end this
war. such large Eyes" votes were
not surprising. This time, how
ever, Mr.. de Gaulle was calling
referendum under quite differ
ent circumstances,

Chinese on both fronts in very
difficult terrain - $4,000 feet
high caused Juror in India, and
Mr.. Menon was the one blamed
the most. Moreover, many of Mr..
Menon's enemies - and he has
many - took this opportunity to
urge Mr.. Menon's firing.
Mr.. Nehru seemed shocked by
the initial setbaeks in the Hina-
layas and called national emer-
gency. Probably to impress the
urgency on the people, he denoted
Mr.. Menon from defense minister
to minister for defense production.
The change is in title and pres
tige, but still keeps his longtime
friend in the cabinet. Public
opinion in Britain and the United
States, however, hailed Mr.. Men
on's demotion as a good sign, and
hoped it would lead to his final
custer,

THE NATIONAL SCENE
As a Nation Votes
In Crisis Atmosphere

The Off-year election cam
paign neared the end last week,
still in the shadow of the Gu
ban crisis, an issue which can
didates in both parties sought
to exploit for their own advan-
tage.
When the American people go
to the polls Tuesday they will be
electing ABS Representatives, 80
Senators and IS Governors.
Historically, in an off-year cleo
ton, one in which the presidency
is not at stake, the party out Of
power has made gains in Con-
gress. For months, the political
punditS have voiced a consensus
that 1862 would see this tradi-
ton upheld, barring some I'M
foreseen crisis at home or abroad.
In the last fortnight a crisis
did explode, one which brought
the United States and the Soviet
Union, in the opinion of many
observers, to the brink of nuclear
war. But this danger provoked
by Russian missile bases in
Cuba appeared to fade almost
as quickly as it had arisen and
the pundits, by and large, have
not altered their original esti-
mate, which went something like
this:
Q The Republicans will probably
gain from 5 to Is seats in the
House, thereby strengthening the
conservative coalition and max
ing even more difficult President
Kennedy's program of domestic
welfare legislation in the new
Congress.
o The Democrats, with a 81 to
SO edge in the Senate today and
81 of their seats in contest, will
probably increase their advantage
slightly-perhaps by one or two.
o The Republicans appeared
likely to pick up from 5 to 10
governorships, thereby bringing
them within shouting distance of
the Democrats, who now hold "a
of the so statehouses, and help
ing them build power base for
the presidential struggle in 1864.

The WEEK IN PERSPECTIVE
Cuba: Wider Repercussions

President Kennedy told the
Nation ON Friday that aerial
photographs showed the Soviet
Union was complying with its
promise to dismantIe, crate,
and ship back to Russia its
offensive missiles in Cuba. He
said the ship quarantine and
air surveillance will continue,
pending agreement on interna-
ti0nal inspection.
Shortly after 8 am. last Sun
day, President Kennedy began
receiving wire service reports Of
a new KhruShchev note on Cuba.
This was the 10th in dramatic
but largely secret correspondence
between the two leaders. It was
also the most significant.
Without ambiguity, Mr.. Khru-
shchev agreed to Mr.. Kennedy's
demands on Cuba. He said the
Soviet Union had given orders
Ito dismantle the arms you
described as offensive, to crate
and return them to the Soviet
Union"
Further on in the three-page
letter, Mr.. Khrushchev said I'VE

by enabling representatives of the
United Nations to verify the dis

asked in return that the United
States keep its promise to issue
a pledge not to invade Cuba.
