The Image of the President

dency as a place for a politi-
cal machine or q Tammany-
like boss, even as they see
how q political apparatus for
vote-getting can be built up
by using presidential powers
and public funds to that end.
President Eisenhower used
to avoid reading q local
newspaper, the Washington
Post. but neither he nor
his staff made q point Of 1t
or let it become a national
episode.
1t isn't always easy for q
newspaper or a critic to ig-
more q Presidents manifesto
ton Of displeasure. The New
York Herald Tribune, in q
front-page editorial, endeav-
ored to give "the soft answer
that turneth away wrath" in
the hope that the President
would forget his unhappy
reaction to certain articles
reporting on controversies in
the news and on which Mr..
Kennedy happens to be po-
litically sensitive.
1t is very important for
every President to realize that
in free America the newspa-
pers do not tell their editors
or writers that they must
present the news or handle
their editions in ways that
will please the top man in
the Government or his staff.
The primary responsibility
Of a newspaper, moreover, is
to its constituency Of read
erS. The people want the
story told without regard to
whether it politically helps or
hurts the administration in
power.
1t Is q mistake for any
President to ignore criticism
or to brush it aside as mere
partisanship or political an
tagonism. The "other side"
may not be palatable. It may
be aggravating. But it is i'm
portant for q President to
read it. Henry L. Mencken,
the brilliant editor and satir-
list, used to answer biting
letters from critics with this
single sentence: You may be
right" Indeed, on many
points the "other fellow"
might be wrong, but on Ger
tain points there is always a
chance that he may be right.

Pilots Suffer From Suit

more than two hours. and 1t
was then that the cruel pres
sure suit started to take its
toll. He had been suffering Of
late from severe head and ear
aches, provoked by the
artificial intake of oxygen dur
ing his ht-to-nine-hour
flights.
His neck had been rubbed
raw by the cork ring which
served as the heSmetic seal for
his helmet. Often it would draw
blood. The slightest wrinkle in
the pressure suit would pinch
at him hour upon hour, raising
blood blisters and welts. He
was wearing his long-legged
underwear inside out to keep
the seams away from his body,
but the best of precautions
could not prevent him from
being cut and bruised by every
abrupt movement in the suit.
The oxygen system forced
him to reverse the normal
process of breathing. Instead
of exerting himself to inhale.
he had to use pressure to ex-
hale. He had not drawn q
natural breath for more than
five hours.
1t was 1890 am. as Powers
neared ChelyabinSk, 125 miles
to the south of Sverdlovsk. The
unusual anxiety was still upon
him and now the automatic
pilot was beginning to act UP.
He decided to take bearing
with his radio compass.
He would need an exact
navigational fix to follow the
red line across the rocket bat
teries and over SverdlovSk.
