He also hit out at a "very

whip in purely partisan oppo-

yet, Latin America and
the Far East. judging by the
very words of your political
leaders. are as important to
America as Europe, and Ger
tainly more than Berlin. You
tell me that our hesitation to
accept the statement of
President Kennedy and other
prominent Americans con-
cerning Berlin is casting un-
fair doubts on your country
which has done so much for
Europe already. Nobody will
deny that we all owe you a
deep debt of gratitude for
your economic and financial
support which we are now
repaying not only with eager
ness but also in an attempt
to help you in your present
economic difficulties.
But today a great change
has come in American think
ing. not in the people but in
your government. when the
cause Of freedom becomes in
volved. Is there any reason
why we should really believe
that after your government
has accepted the solutions"
in Cuba, Laos and Irian you
will act energetically when
the chips are down in Ber-
lin?"
Berlin, continued the Ger
man parliamentarian, sis no
longer a question of prestige
or what some of your people
now call Pan-GermaniSm. 1t
is a question of human rights.
It should be obvious to you
that had the East Germans
become reconciled to their
fate under the Communist
government like, say, the
Czechs or the BulgarS-the

Of that enslaved Germany

Agriculture Secretary Free
man came to the defense of
President Kennedy last night
in a speech before the Ameri-
can Political Science Associa-
ton.
He replied to Senator Javits,
Republican Of New York, who
told members of the aSSocia- :
ton Thursday that Mr.. Ken
nedy was more a Senator"
than a President.
Mr.. Freeman said "it is easy
to attack, to oppose. to raise
questions and criticisms and
doubts. :" ....
Il do not understand" he
continued, "how the President
can be accused Of both grab
for power and an excess of
timidity-of both pressuring
the Congress too much and
pressuring It too little-of COM
mitting his administration to
too many objectives and COM
mitting it to far too few"
He added that he was par
ticularly amused when such
criticism comes from a So
called liberal Republican who,
on the health-care bill, for ex-
smple, was unable to convince
his closest friends and ranking
members of his party to sup
port his own position"
Senator Javits charged
Thursday that "the most aston
ishing aspect of the 48-to-52
outcome (on medicare) was
that the President failed to

Arthur Goldberg was born
August 8, 1908. The newly
appointed Associate Justice
Of the United States Supreme
Court remembers rides with
his father on that wagon, be-
hind the patient, blind horse.
He recalls bringing home
some Of the unstable, half
spoiled fruit and sharing it
with other boys in the tene-
ment slum where they lived.
Those we're the days when
the Irish immigrants were
also a despised, discrimi-
nated-against minority. They,
too.. were crowded In that
slum. Now and then Arthur
Goldberg meets with success
full Irish-Americans out of
the slumS. They laugh to-
gether about the fights be-
tween the rival groups Of
Jewish and Irish boys. 1--WE
do ourselves an injustice if
We forget how this Nation
has been enriched by the
products Of the melting pot.)
The young Goldberg grew
up with a passion for books
and education. His father
could never get over the won-
ders of America country
that provided free books and
schools for everyone. The boy
had many jobs. He worked
his way through Northwest
ern University Law School.
He was at the top of his class
that graduated in 1929. A
law office hired him to write
briefs. The pay was $40 a
week. The depression came
on. Another law firm hired
the brilliant young man to
work on mortgage foreclo-
sures. He took it-but soon

Foreign News
Held Chaotic

Coverage Of foreign news in
American newspaper is chaotic,
according to q study presented
to the annual convention Of the
American Political Science As
sociation at the Mayflower Ho-
tel.
Bernard c. Cohen Of the
University of Wisconsin,
charged yesterday that in
chaotic coverage" Of foreign
news, events break into the
newspapers with dramatic sud-
denness and their antecedent
conditions get explored in the
midst Of the crisis"
He said the present COM
promise" on foreign news COW
erage, between those few who
read it and the mass audience
which doesn't, is mot satisfac-
tory to either party"
I'm these circumstances" he
said, what seems appropriate
is not the down-grading OF
foreign affairs news and COM
ment that is implicit in the at
tempt to attract new people
into the audience for this ma
terial, but rather an up-grad-
ing, a quantitative and quail
tative Improvement"
This calls for more timely,
systematic, analytical and the
oretical coverage. 1t means a
different attitude" on the part
of reporters and editors toward
material that is not news in
the ordinary meanings Of the
term" he said.
Defending the press were John
Hightower of the Associated
Press and Douglas Cater Of the
Reporter magazine.
Mr.. Hightower said some edi-
tors will agree there is a need
for improvement of foreign
news coverage and that the
press has played a vital role''
in presenting facts which point
to changes in foreign policy.
In another discussion group
yesterday, a former Office of
Price Administration executive
said economic coordination
"visibly improved" when George
Humphrey was installed as Sec
retary Of the Treasury.
Harvey c. Mansfield, who
served on the OPA during World
War II, also held that "prob-
ably the best co-ordinated COM
mittee in the Senate still sits
under the Craftsmanship of
Harry Byrd"
A third study showed that
the Council ofthe Organization
Of American States Is changing
from a managerial body to a
more political one.
John C. Dreier of Johns Hop
kins University said this devel-
opment has required govern
ments to give greater attention
to the councils work and to
make it more responsive to
their policies"

Germans Ask How Long Washington

covite Intervention in Cas-

only were the American
trained Cubans left to their
fate. but even the long estab-
lished Monroe Doctrine
seemed to be swept under the
rug.
Today the Soviet Union Is
defying that doctrine, aimed
at preventing South America
from becoming a fief of Eu-
ropean colonialists, by send
ing to Cuba thousands Of
military technicians and
shiploadS of war materials.
The Europeans, who sought
to penetrate Latin America
in the last century, wanted
mere economic advantages.
The Russians want political
and military domination of
that continent. We have been
and still are swallowing small
slices of Mr.. Khrushchev's
special brand of salami in
that area.
We did no better in the Far
East. Soon after President
Kennedy took office he
solemnly warned the Amer
ican people as well as the
rest of world that the security
Of Southeast Asia depended
to a great extent on the true
independence of Laos. But

military men, the pigmy
Khrushchev cast his shadow

Laos which must result in

America. They landed at San
Francisco. Joseph Goldberg

words Of English. A year and
a half later he moved to
Chicago. Out of his meager

MUNICH-How long will
the American government
continue to swallow the
"salami diplomacy" which
has been introduced into
world politics by Nikita
Khrushehev?
This question is being aked
with intense concern by
Western Europeans who fear
that the Soviet Union has
taken the thunder away
from the United States and
is stuffing down our throats
its own will in thin but ef-
fective slices.
The concern Of Germans
Of all political creeds is
understandable because it
concerns the future Of Ber-
lin which they regard as
threatened d because the
"salami diplomacy" has been
successful so far. True enough,
it is said, Washington issues
regular, reassuring state
ments that it will hold firm
and will refuse to yield an
inch in that city. But will it
act when faced with more
interference from the Com
munists?
The history Of the last 18
months. German and other
European leaders say, has
created an atmosphere of
doubt. VIII strong words be
followed by strong decisions
which by necessity must in
volve risks? viii our policies
in other trouble areas be
duplicated in Berlin?

retirement plans which may be
set up now by individuals to
operate their business as a
corporation. Two other Senate
amendments restrict existing
corporation pension plans.
One change provides that
If a beneficiary of a corpora
ton retirement plan elects to
take the amount due him at
retirement in q lump sum, it
would be treated as straight
income instead Of a capital
gain for tax purposes. But the
individual could average the
tax for this part of his income
as though it had been received
over five years.
Executive Limitation
Another amendment limits
the amount a corporation could
set aside in a retirement fund
for an executive to 10 per cent
Of salary up to $4,000 annually,
with an overall limit Of $3.50 900.
The public works bill was
called up late yesterday, but
final action was put off until
Monday. Senator Cooper, Re-
publican of Kentucky, served
notice he will try to correct an
error in the House version of
the bill, in which one section
was inadvertently given the
wrong number.
But Democratic leaders will
resist the amendment because
even one minor change would
make it necessary for the House
to act on the bill again, and
the Democrats have made II
clear they do not want to risk
having the bill go back to the
House, fearing it might be side
tracked in the adjournment
rush.
The Democrats said yester-
day the floor debate will show
clearly that the error was a
technical one and would not
interfere with carrying out a
public works program. But
Senator Cooper argued that it
would establish a bad prece-
dent for Congress to overlook
an error which is called to It's
attention before it takes final
action on the bill.

The Senate is expected to
complete action Monday on the
administrations 5000 million
public works bill to reduce un-
employment, the fourth i'm
portant measure to be called
up this week.
The chamber is in recess to-
day after taking quick action
on three big bills during the
last two days. Stepping up its
pace in the hope of adjourning
by October /, the Senate yes
terday passed:
/. A sharply amended yer,
sion Of a House-approved pri-
vate pension plan for self
employed persons, which now
goes to a Joint conference
committee for settlement oi
differences.
2. A $1.3 billion appropria-
ton bill for housing and other
construction projects at mill
tary posts both in this country
and overseas.
Tax Reform Voted
The Senate began its speed
up Thursday by taking final
action on the big tax revi-
sion bill, containing only a
part Of President Kennedy's
program. 1t may be a week
or more before House and SEN
ate conferees can meet, how
ever, to settle their differences
over tax reform, because the
Senators in charge Of the taz
bill will be busy all next week
acting on the Presidents
equally important foreign trade
bill.
AS scaled down by the Sem
ate, the private pension bill
would allow self-employed per-
sons, which includes profes-
ional people, to take a tax de-
duction for half Of the amount
they set aside each year to
finance their own retirement.
Since not more than $2,500
could be set aside in one year,
the maximum tax deduction
would be $l,250.

ing one, except for a little extra
bookkeeping"
This situation, like the others
in the skit, was humorous and
fictional, but the prologue given
by the Commissioner Of Inter-
nal Revenue, Mortimer M. Cap
lin, and the panel discussions
following each act showed that
real issues were touched. Mr..
Caphn said that he hoped the
skit would help "articulate good
tax practice"
The author Of the skit, Lip
man Redman, a tax lawyer
here, said some Of the material
was born Of experience"
One Of the loudest laughs
from the audience Of lawyers
came when two tax lawyers
ponder whether they can de-
duct the expense of taking their
secretary out to dinner. Says
one, in an obvious reference to
the tightening up Of expense
accounts, a controversial sub
ject in the current tax reform
bill in Congress:
you know they have a new
rule now. If you like it, 1t amt
deductible."
Where II Gets Lost
In another skit, the lawyer
deals with a corporation execu-
tive who is impatient about
having received a bill for per-
sonal tax advice. He wants it
billed to the corporation where
it is "deductible" and "gets lost
in the shuttle"
In Act II entitled "Is Silence
Ever Golden" two tax lawyers
discuss what to do when the law
seems to be against their client.
II wonder" one Of them pond
ers, "if we should tell the rev.
enue agent anything. We can
avoid giving him the facts by
paying the tax and then suing
for a refund" :
In Act III, the clustering
contractor returns with the
revenue boys breathing down
his neck. He wonders whether
a gratuity properly placed
might not take off the pressure.
You're not suggesting bribe?
the lawyer inquiries.
mo, just a token Of apprecia-
ton for being a nice guy and
dropping the case"
Commissioner Caplin in his
prologue said that the tax bar
sis indeed fortunate in having
outstanding members" The
mutual goal should be to de-
velop a more uniform level Of
good tax practice, he said, and
to raise it, if possible.
