Spirit of COMPROMISE

AS Senator Smith of Massachusetts,
commented, the new District of Column
bia tax bill which finally has emerged
from conference of House and Senate
leaders could only have been worked out
in "a spirit of compromise" From the
standpoint of the city, the "compro-
mise" has several shortcomings The
amount of new revenues it will produce
is less than the Commissioners had
hoped. Especially regrettable is the dele
ton of an increase in the authorization
of the amount of the annual Federal
payment Still, its early adoption would
provide substantial measures of both
immediate and long-range relief, and
would permit the District budget for the
first time in three years to be handled
by the Appropriations Committee as
single package, instead of in bits and
pieces. Most important of all, as prac-
tical matter, it is in form which should
be acceptable to both the House and
Senate. We hope it is speedily approved.

against urban renewal commitments
beyond its financial resources.
But the completion of the so-called
Sketch plan" now being prepared by
the Planning Commission staff would
not conflict with any of these. Ger
tainly it would not commit" the Dis
trict to anything. According to Plan
ming Commission officials, the cost to
the District of a waterfront renewal
project would be small. That may or
may not be true. The point is, how
ever, that until such proposal is put
on paper, no one can tell Such a plan,
moreover, should be helpful in design
ing the Potomac River Expressway,
which is slated for early construction
along the waterfront
We hope, therefore, that the Plan
ming Commission will instruct its staff
to complete the preliminary studies it
has begun. The fact that this plan
may not evolve Immediately into an
official urban renewal project is no
eaSon for planning to stop-particu-
larly in an area so obviously in need
of attention as the Georgetown water
front.

For the Children

Some OF tomorroW'S children may
we'll have reason to believe with Robert
Louis Stevenson, himself a lover of
children and the world that is so much
their own, that "a generous prayer is
never presented in vain" For in Mem
phiS, Tennessee, bright star-shaped
hospital is in business today as shrine
to prayer that was answered, prayer
that was given generously and an an
SWer that has been rewarded gratefully.
1t is the St. Jude Research Hospital for
Children, dedicated to treatment and
research in leukemia and other catas-
trophic diseases that so often fatally
afflict the young.
The prayer was offered in 1887 to
st. Jude, patron of the hopeless, by a
young and newly married entertainer,
devout Roman Catholic American of
LebaneSe ancestry with VOW that if it
brought him employment and success
there would be repayment in the form of
a shrine. In the years since, success
has come in large measure to the en-
tertainer, known today as Danny
Thomas, and repeatedly it was on ad-
NANC Va Vic AdIC Od1llUC1 Ndl
Archbishop of Chicago, that the shrine
took the form of the childrens hos
pital in Memphis. Many helped in it's
creation, but most notably Danny
Thomas through innumerable benefit
performances that helped raise the Sc
million for the building, equipping and
stating of the non-Sectarian institu-
ton where treatment will be free The
American Lebanese Syrian Associated
Charities (ALSAC), founded by Mr..
Thomas, will continue it's Embarrassing
to meet operating expenses.
Fame in the entertainment world
is mortal, but those who pray to St.
Jude may henceforth have added rea-
son to do so generously and with graft
tude that one more significant effort is
being made to conquer the grave phySi-
cal Affections of humankind

Cows Discriminate

In her letter. "Sour on
Milk" Jeanne S. Bagby at
tacks milk because it con-
tains fallout. May I remind
Mrs. Bagby that fallout Is
everywhere-in the water she
drinks, the bread she chews?
Unfortunately, some people
associate milk with fallout
because the United States
Public Health Service meas
ures fallout by it's incidence
in milk. Why is this? Be-
cause milk is the only agri-
cultural commodity produced
in all parts of the country
in all seasons of the year
not because milk contains
more fallout than other
foods. Actually, milk con-
tainS less fallout than most
foods because a COW diScrim-
mates in favor of calcium
against strontium 90, a radi-
onuclide which most organ
isms assimilate as they do
calcium. (The Star column
mist. Fletcher Knebel, drew
on this fact a few days ago
when he called the COW "A
drinking mans filter.")
Mrs. Bagby's deep sense
of shock" at President Ken
nedy's advocacy of milk
drinking is unwarranted.
President Kennedy knew what
he was doing: Milk is still
natures most nearly perfect
food. The frightened and
partially informed who would
lead the public away from
milk appear to be doing the
public a disservice.

Deadly Business

PRESIDENT Kennedy stopped short of
telling his news conference that, barring
some highly improbable change of heart
by the Soviet Union, we will resume
nuclear testing in the atmosphere with
In few weeks. The logic of the Presi-
dents comments, however, points in
escapably to the compelling need to
start testing again.
The SovietS broke the self-imposed
test ban last year by conducting some
thing more than 40 atmospheric tests.
This necessarily followed a long period
OF secret preparation-a period in which
we gambled with the security Of the
United States by not testing No ra-
t1enal person doubts that the Russians,
as a result Of their tests, have made
significant Improvements in their
arsenal Of weapons. And only very
foolish person would be unwilling to
believe that they are now engaged
again in secret preparations for a new
test series.
It may be true, as Mr.. Kennedy
said, that we are amply strong for to-
day and tomorrow. But there is the
day after tomorrow, and the day after
that. If we stand still, while the
Russians move forward, the time surely
will come when decisive preponder-
ance of nuclear power will lie with them,
not with us. And on that evil day the
United States and the whole free world
could expect to be put to the choice
between humiliation and surrender to
blackmail. No President, sensitive to
his responsibilities, could deliberately
permit such condition to arise Were
he to do so, he would be guilty of crimi-
nal neglect, of a catastrophe betrayal
of trust
The President is quite right in say
ing that this is deadly business
that there may not be much security in
a renewed competition in testing. But
he Is also right in saying that there
would be less security if we do nothing
while the Russians score a decisive
neutrality-suspicious. example, as he sug-
gested might be the case, if they should
develop an effective defensive weapon
against our ICBMs. Let that day come
and we will indeed be at their mercy.
Consequently, in our view, the
United States simply must resume
atmospheric tests-as companion
piece to renewed efforts at properly in
spected disarmament if any hope lies
in that direction To do this, Of course,
will be to offend some segments of what
we have come to call world opinion
and to which we have already unduly
deferred. The security of the United
States, however, should never be sacri-
feed on this altar. The complaints of
people who may be sincere, but who
certainly are misguided, cannot be per-
mitted to stand in the way of doing
what can and must be done to insure
the survival of the free world

Iqnorinn the Waterfront

In all likelihood, the lack of in
terest which the Commissioners have
expressed in retaining the Georgetown
waterfront will discourage the COM
pletion of a renewal proposal by the
National Capital Planning Commission.
And this, in our opinion, is too bad.
The Commissioners are quite right
in saying Q) that nothing should in

of the Northwest second precinct"

Claim Bias

InOugnLIul persons III
these times are surely aware
of the terrific propaganda
content of much of the
news" they get from their
newspapers and over the air.
The most a person can do
is shun the worst of the
propaganda and try to evalu-
ate the rest.
1t is my opinion that of all
Washington newspapers The
Star is the most faithful to
unbiased news reporting.
That is why I read The Star
with confidence that the
news has not been manipu-
lated or distorted.
However, there are some
reporters, even on The Star,
who must find it difficult to
write a news story without
in some way injecting their
personal bias. I believe Mary
McGrory is one of these.
For example, take Miss
McGrory's February 8 news
story on a speech Senator
Goldwater made at the con-
vention for Young Republic
cans. Miss McGrory re-
strained herself admirably
until the very last word of
her story. Then, in that word
darling" (of the Young Re-
publicans) she let loose all
her pent-up emotions!
Harvey H. Hewitt.
y Il u
In the February 3 article
entitled, young Republicans
Go for Goldwater," Miss Nc
Grory made the curious
statement that Senator
Goldwater touched on every
topic from the ADA to Arthur
Schlesinger, jr." If she had
the colossal gall to use this
as a cheap, petty, pedantic,
journalistic trick to say that
Senator Goldwater never got
off the same subject, then
she is grossly immature and
should not be allowed to
Illustrate thousands of news
readers who are earnestly
trying to separate actually
from hairbrained machina-
tons written by biased, mar
row-minded reporters.
The worst part, however,
was yet to come. As Senator
Goldwater was telling the
future campaigners the i'm
portance of audience-cen-
tered speeches, he used the
phrase. "Yot you them, and
they'll yes you" This simple
formula was emphasized
three times during the speech
without variation. Still Miss
McGrory quoted him as say
ing. you no them, and
they'll yes you" 1t is i'm
possible to believe that this
misquote was other than in
territorial.
