Six large grey steel boxes
finally got around to being the
Christmas shoppers best friend
yesterday.
The hour for the press pre-
view had come and gone but
the boxes-a quarter of a mil
lion dollars worth of IBM
equipment-sat silent on the
sixth floor of Hecht's. When
working properly, this unit of
machines is supposed to tell
shoppers what gifts to buy. In
stead they did nothing but
cough, wheeze and blink their
lights.
To department store owners,
public relations men and IBM
technicians, this is not the
stuff Christmas is made of. In
the gathering gloom, someone
suggested giving the machines
Ia swift kick, but a more
scientific approach was taken
by an IBM technician.

Immediately after them to try

But in four years, the Com
mission has satisfied only 437
complaints, nearly all from Ne
groes. Only 127 of those who
claimed discrimination received
the apartment or house they
originally wanted.
As one real estate man
quipped, "At that rate, it would

There was an element of truth
in his disdain for the law.
Affects Certain Class
The reasons for non-use of
the law are legion. But the
main one is that the law
reaches only a certain class of
people.
Rufus Smith is a typical
complainant. He holds a mas
ter's degree from the Univer-
sity of Michigan. In his thir-
ties, he makes over $4,000. He
grew up in integrated commu-I
mites and academic surround
ings. He has no fears of living
or Socializing with whites.
Rufus Smith is willing to-
sacrifice the security of the
Negro surroundings for the
status and advantage of the
white community. He sends his
children to an almost all-white
private school without the
slightest fear they will be tor
Finally, because Mr.. Smith
belongs to a kind of "in-group"

There is a parallel between
the Kremlin's power play in the
Western Hemisphere and the
Red Chinese invasion of India
In each case, there was q bald
use of force to achieve a polit-
ical objective. The Russians
are believed to have been aim
ing for United States surrender
over Berlin before they were
thwarted. The Communist
leaders in Picking wanted full
control of long disputed ter

been determined to humiliate
India by military defeat. and
thus assert dominance in Asia.

Border Firing HaItsl
India BaIks at Terms
Picking Says
Nehru Must
Cooperate


Shooting has stopped along
the Himalayan frontier but in
formed sources said today India
is not planning to accept Red
China's terms for settlement of
the month-old border war.
Prime Minister Nehru told
Parliament: so far as we know
there has been an effective
cease fire" He made no men
ton of the Indian reaction but
informants said the Indian
army has been ordered to with
hold its fire against Chinese
troops who are observing a self
imposed cease-fire.
The lull in the undeclared
frontier war left open the
prospect of more fighting, in
formed observers in New Delhi
said.
Mr.. Nehru has not formally
replied to Peking's declaration
of a cease-fire to be followed
by a Chinese withdrawal from
their conquests during the last
month in a sweeping offensive.
The Indian government re-
portedly remains determined to
drive out the Chinese invaders
rather than agree to their Of
fer Of a partial withdrawal
that would leave the Com
munists in the strategic region
of Ladakh.
Orders Are Secret
A Defense Ministry spokes-
man was vague in his daily
briefing on the fighting front.
While informed sources said
Indian troops had been directed
to fire only when fired upon,
the spokesman said orders were
a military secret and refused
to disclose them.
Earlier. Mr.. Nehru told
Parliament the Chinese had
silenced their guns but he did
not say anything about orders
given Indian forces.
Picking, in announcing that
Chinese troops put their cease
fire into effect at midnight
Wednesday I'll am, EST,
Wednesday,. warned:
The border conflict cannot
be stopped by China's action
alone.
THE cessation Of the border
depends on the Indian
side rather than the Chinese
side, and now it depends par
on whether or not the
Indian government responds
positively"
Troops 'Tn Contact"

spokesman said In

nists made their threatening

The extent of the Chinese
push south in this major
thrust was not clear.
Mr.. Nehru told Parliament
they were somewhere beyond

Informed sources said the
Communists were within rifle

and between Red China and
India over their undeclared
border war. All three have
loosed forces which, in their
final impact, must have a pro-
found influence on the future
course Of international rela-
tionS.
The showdown between Mr..
Kennedy and Soviet Premier
Khrushchev over the installa-
ton of Soviet nuclear weapons
in Cuba probably holds the
greatest threat and the great
est hope for the future. In gen.
eral terms, two courses are
open to Washington and Mos
COW. Either they can move
toward some adjustment of
their differences, such as those
over Berlin. and toward arms
control agreements, or they
can begin working overtime to
get ready for the next disaster
threatening, Cuban-type con-
formation.
u. S. Gain Cited
From the United States view
point. the chief long-range
gain of the crisis in the Carib-
bean was to show Mr.. Khru-
shchev that Mr.. Kennedy would
face up to the full risk of nu-
clear war in defense of vital
United States interests and
commitments. The important
question now is what conclu-
sion the Soviet leader draws
from this experience-whether
he chooses to avoid dangerous
challenges in the future or to
arm more powerfully for even
greater risks hereafter.
Militarily, the result of the
Cuban crisis can hardly be con-
sidered decisive for more than
a few years. Its immediate ef-
feet is to roll Soviet nucleal
power back thousands of miles
onto Soviet territory. But the

There is a sense Of great
drama in Washington as the
last scenes of the Cuban con-
flict are played out. There is
a feeling that something big
is about to happen.
The question is: What?
Neither President Kennedy,
who calls this a climactic
period and a turning point in
history. nor Secretary of State
Rusk, who says we are all on
the edge of unpredictable events
of high Importance, has an
swered this question.
Neither, so far as a reporter
can learn, is able to answer.
But both men are undoubt-
eddy convinced that in Moscow
and Picking, in New Delhi, and
in other Western capitals as
well as Washington, old policies
are being reviewed and historic
new decisions are in the max
ing. They believe, therefore,
that the shape of the world
is changing.
3 Crises at Once
The development, not of one,
but actually of three crises, at
almost the same time last
month is responsible for this
belief. They are the crises be-
tween the United States and
Russia over Cuba, between Rus
STA and Red China over India,
