Now for Some Steaks

If the laws OF supply and demand
take their normal course, shoppers for
thick Sirloin steaks may be picking up
some bargains before long. The extent
of the sayings will largely depend on the
amount of cattle and other farm prod
uctS actually held back by the National
Farmers Organization during its recent
effort to boost prices.
In the words of Oren Staley, MO
president, a recess" has been called
in the boycotting of livestock markets
to permit members to. dispose of live
stock they no longer can handle. This
simply means, in common-SenSe terms,
that no farmer can continue forever to
feed cattle that he must sell to make
ends meet After S3 days of the "strike,"
some cattle probably were eating better
than the farmers.
Mr. Staley claimed that the MO on
three occasions was near complete vic
tory The aim was to set minimum
price on hogs and cattle and feed grain,
insured by union-like contracts with
processing firms. With victory in sight,
the farmers became "overeonfident" and
loosened up, Mr.. Staley opined. Another
way of saying that buck in the hand
is worth two in your dreams
Whatever the holdout accomplished
in sporadic price increases, it was fore
doomed to failure The segment Of CO.
operating MidweStern producers was
not strong enough to offset the flow to
market from other sectors. And but for
the Chicago and North Western Rail-
road strike, which cut off the normal
transportation route of many farmers,
the boycott might have ended much
sooner. Now the cattle and hogs held
back will flood the market, most likely
again depressing prices. 1t is our guess
that Mr.. Staley's "receSS" will last for
quite while.

pal Democratic target is Senator Thrus-
ton Morton, former Republican National
Chairman, who is being opposed by an
old-time Democratic liberal, Wilson
Wyatt. In Ohio, where Mr.. Kennedy
suffered one of his worst 1860 defeats,
the party, in some diSorganization, is
attempting to rally behind Governor
Mike Disable. There is a chance also
to defeat Republican Governor Elmer L.
Andersen in Minnesota, and probably
the most important fight of all is that
in Michigan. It is there that George
Romney, automobile manufacturer, is
making his first plunge into big-time
politics as Republican nominee for Gov
ernor. If he wins, Mr. Romney might be
worrying the Democrats even more in
1864, or later.
All of this is routine to American
politics, and even a pair of Mr.. Ken
nedy's predecessors in the White House
General Eisenhower and Mr.. Truman
-also are out on the campaign trail.

Let's Meet at the Fair

It appears now that the Soviet
Union has reneged on its contract to
build a great pavilion for the 1964-65
Worlds Fair in New York City. Robert
Moses, the fairs distinguished and hy-
perkinetic president, has described the
whole business as misunderstanding"
that will be cleared up in due course.
And he has given voice to complete
confidence that the Kremlin will change
it's mind, once again, and be massive,
spectacular participant in the coming
big show in Gotham.
Anyhow, that's the way the New
York Times sums up the situation in its
exclusive report on it. Speaking for
ourselves, we have only the thought that
it would be nice, that it would be pleas
ant, that it might help to ease interna-
tional tensions if no stone were left

Shadow BUDGET

Within hours of its approval by the
Senate, and apparently with hardly a
second look, the House District Commit
tee has unceremoniously dumped the
Districts $75-million loan authorization
bill in the ash can. 1t is not too late for
the bill to be rescued, however, and in
deed, from the city's point Of view, it
is essential that this be done. AS the
Senate District Committee pointed out
in its official report on the bill, the
authority to borrow more money from
the Federal Government must be OBJ!
tanned" If the construction of schools,
Libraries, hospitals and other essential
public improvement is to proceed on
any kind of orderly basis
Unfortunately even this language
understated the case. According to Dis
trict officials, the failure Of Congress to
grant the loan authority before adjourn
ment would mean that the city budget
to be transmitted to Capitol Hill in jan
uary would be devoid of a single dollars
worth of capital improvements. During
the last few years about $50 million has
been spent annually for this purpose. 1t
should be understood that the new loan
authority would not by any means result
in full and adequate budget for the
next fiscal year. Indeed, the financial
dilemma is so serious that further rev.
enues from some other source will be
required in any event. Without the loan
authority, however, the budget to be
presented would have no more substance
than a shadow.

We Miss Ike, Too

There's no question about 1.-THE
Republicans do miss their old White
House boss. And 1t is just as evident
that former President Eisenhower misses
1900 Pennsylvania avenue. ALI doubts
on both scores were erased at the
G. o. P.'s 81 Miss Ike" Constitution Hall
reunion.
Seldom has so much warmth and
enthusiasm been generated between
party chief and the workers In the ranks
For one thing, not many of those pres
ent ever expected to see the ex-Presi-
dent back in town in a Embarrassing
capacity. Wasn't this the fellow who
was looking forward to the pastoral
contentment of the gentleman farmer?
And didn't he always consider politics to
be just little messy?
But there he stood, arms upheld in
the old victory sign, hearing himself
called the beloved warrior" sharing the
bows with Mrs. Eisenhower, and shout
ing back, 1--WE miss you, too" Politics
suddenly has become more enchant-
ing thing to an old soldier pushing past
10. From Massachusetts, to Texas to Cali
fornia, he is carrying the campaign
fight for young Republican candidates,
sniping at the administrations domestic
policies while insisting we must keep
united front in foreign affairs. 1t is
small wonder the Republicans miss this
most popular of soldier-stateSmen. And
it is good to see he is not going to let
them, or the country, forget him.

NY Good Friend

President Kennedys good friends"
Democratic variety, should feel increaS-
ing cheer today as it becomes obvious
that the party leader is prepared to give
politics a lot of time in the coming five
weeks. 1t is, of course, a campaign asset
to have an incumbent President taking
the stump for his party's candidates in
an off-year and the asset has even
higher value when the Chief Executive
has a personal zest for appearance on
the hustings. Mr. Kennedy demon
strated in 1860, if not earlier, that he
is a good campaigner and one who en-
joys the work.
For this year, Mr.. Kennedy'S first
frankly political bid was made some ten
DAYS ago at Harrisburg, with a second
one last week at Wheeling, West Virginia.
It was in West Virginia that he won his
most critical early primary in the 1860
fight for the Presidential nomination,
and his welcome the other night was a
warm one His story, in brief, was that
only good things have happened to the
Mountain State since the New Frontier
administration came to power. To as
sure that things remain so good, Mr..
Kennedy counseled his audience that
it is highly important that my good
friend" Representative Cleveland Bal
ley, be returned to office. Mr.. Bailey
repeatedly is in some trouble, politically
speaking, but presumably not as much
so as before the Presidents visit.
It is this week end, however, that
Mr.. Kennedy will go after bigger game
in a three-day swing through four
States where much more than single
House seat is the top prize. These are

The long, long Congress
now drawing to its close pre-
sents President Kennedy with
a most difficult problem in
how to point with pride and
view with alarm at one and
the same time-and not do
too much of either.
The President, assisted by
Vice President johnson, has
assumed personal leadership
of his party's drive to return
in next months elections a
Congress yet more Democra-
tic than the old. But his
work is cut out for him, in
more senses than one.
Apart from the apparent
resurgence Of Republican
strength, particularly in the
Middle West, there is the
infinitely delicate question
of just what kind of Demo-
Gratis the President really
wants returned here. In the
departing Congress he has
had, so far as numbers go,
substantial majorities in both
Senate and House. All the
same, the truth of it is he
has been notably successful
on the big national security
legislative issues but notably
unsuccessful on secondary
welfare issues.
The Congress which grants
him a historic victory in the
world trade expansion bill
and a major victory in con-
tinuing foreign aid has re-
fused to grant him an urban
affairs department. 1t has
backed him in every world
crisis; but it has said mo"
to him on matters like medi-
cal care and Federal aid to
public school education.
Upheld on World Issues
Where he is a world lead
er, it has strongly upheld
him. Where he is a partisan
leader of the Democratic
Party for domestic political
purposes it has again and
again denied him that very
legislation which would as
sist the basic Democratic
strategy of appealing pri-
marily to urban and minority
group interests.
In q word, a Democratic
Congress-with great Repub-
lican assistance-has i'm
mensely helped him to run a
country in a dangerous world.

.OAs and Cuba

In the communiQue summing up the
work of their "informal" two-day meet
ing here, the foreign ministers OF 20
members of the Organization of Amer
ican States have made one fact very
clear: They are unanimous in condemns
ing "Sino-Soviet intervention in Cuba
, as an attempt to convert the island into
an armed base for Communist penetra-
= ton of the Americas" Further than
: that, and not of small Importance, they
have strongly emphasized their ''extraor-
dinary solidarity on matters affecting
the security and wel1-being of the henli-
spheric system"
These are mere words, OF course,
that commit nobody to anything. Never
, thelesS they leave little room for doubt
that all our neighboring governments
to the South-excepting, almost needless
to say, Fidel Castro'S-are beginning to
see in Communist Cuba a genuine and
potentially quite dangerous threat to
their independence and freedom. Hence
their unanimity in agreeing with the
United States, 1t is an agreement recog-
nizing that the menace must be dealt
with comparatively, including the need
to INTENSITY measures to prevent agents
and groups of international communism
from carrying on their activities OF a
subversive nature"
All this adds up to something OF
more than passing interest. What 1t
neutrality-suspicious. in view of the
unanimity involved-is that our friends
in the American system recognize
the danger and, one must hope, will
support any appropriate action the
United States may decide to take. This
presumably includes our breakdown on
shipping to HAVANA breakdown that
many prove to be of some effectiveness.

Fortunately Nine. Brun-
schwig is wrong. Ichiro is a
dutiful son, concerned with
with his own development
and his own future. He is also
somewhat spoiled and snob-
bish and we'll aware of the
usefulness Of excusing pres
ent sins by the promise Of
future reform.
The proportions Of the no
BILE and ignoble are forever
changing. Doubtless they will
always appear different to
different observers. In bal
ance, there is little question
that Ichiro is a fine boy. His
letters fascinate partly be-
cause 1t is a pleasure to see
him mature and partly be-
cause they reveal so clearly
the tangled and complex ma
ture of human behavior and
motivation.
MRS. HATANO is devoted
to her eldest son-not to the
neglect of the others, one
hopes-and willing to make
great sacrifices for him. She
guides his development with a
cool wisdom that is totally
admirable.
Yet she too is human and
imperfect. From time to time
time there is an undertone
that suggests that Mrs. Ha-
tano enjoys the lachrymose
pleasures of unnecessary,
self-imposed privation. The
balance, however. is clearly
and heavily on the side Of
beauty of character. 1t is a
pleasure and an honor to
make her acquaintance.
In a letter to Ichiro, she
said, "The thought which
often comes to me nowadays,
when I wake up in the night.
is that I have good children.
When, in particular, I think
of your fond heart my own
heart warns, as I lie alone
in the night"
Ichiro wrote a poem about
his mother: when the great
tree that I love is withered-
I shall always be proud-To
have been its fruit"
The correspondence be-
tween the two has been
translated from the French
edition into language that
has just the right tone. But
translations at second hand
are not likely to be highly
accurate, and it would be un-
wise to build theories on the
text as we have it here.
The book has been de-
signed and decorated by
George Saiter with exquisite
and spare taste. 1t is a beau
tiful object, a delight to hold,
a pleasure merely to have on
the shelf.

THE PASSING SCENE
Kennedy Campaign Predicoment
By WILLIAM S. WHITE

publican opposition-has
done little to forward those
more partisan Kennedy pro-
grams which were carefully
designed to strengthen the
Democratic grip upon the
big-city vote in that country.
How can a Democratic
President attack a Demo-
cratic Congress which has
been highly responsible on
the great cold war issues of
our time but has undeniably
been obstructive to him on
most of his purely domestic
designs? Both political tradi-
ton and the simple facts of
the case require him to pay
some tribute to the old Con-
gress for its big achieve
ments.
Question of Emphasis
But If he salutes 1t too
much, or inferentially blames
it too little, what will hap
pen to his secondary case
against it that 1t couldn't
quite see things like urban
affairs and medicare? Will
not the voters then ask him:
(which Congress are you
talking about?"
And if he turns an occa-
sional chilly shoulder to the
moderates and conserva-
tives in that Congress, how
will he explain the fact that
wherever there have been
really wild assaults upon him
they have come only from
the liberals? What they have
said about his bill to let pri-
vate capital into the space
communications system and
his bill to give business tax
relief would hardly bear re-
peating.
Merely to recognize the
existence of all these ques-
tions Is to realize that those
ecstatic reports of a Presi-
dent quivering with elation
at being back on that good
old campaign trail are more
than slightly exaggerated.
He is on that trail, true
enough; and will be more and
more so. But he is not and
cannot be quite the happiest
of all possible warriors in this
enterprise. For it Is not easy
to divide the conservative
goats from the liberal sheep
in a twilight landscape where
the goats have been quietly
indispensable to his mission
of national leadership and
the sheep shrilly indispens-
able to his partisan mission.

A BOOK FOR TODAY
A Tokyo FoniIy's Intimate Thoughts
By DONALD MINTZ

MOTHER AND SON, The
Wartime Correspondence
of Isoka and IchirO HatanO,
translated from the French
edition, L'Enfant d'Hiro-
shima, by Margaret Shen-
field. Preface by Odette
Brunschwig. Lettering and
Decorations by George
Salter. 1876 PIP. (Houghton

Press, $3.750
Isoka Hatano began cor
responding with her son
Ichiro in 1888 when the boy
was eight years old. 1t is not
that they were physically sep
arated. But even in prewar
Japan there was too little
free time, too little in any
case for a mother who was
also a professional to be with
her eldest son. So Mrs. Ha-
tano, who was director of the
education center at the Uni
versity of Tokyo, and her boy
took to writing letters. Each
would write and read at leis-
ure. Important matters were
discussed and decided this
way rather than in hurried
and harried face to face con-
formations.
Mother and Son" is a Sc
lection from these letters to
which a few pages Of Ichiro's
diaries have been added. The
earliest letter was written in
May, 1914, when Ichiro was
IA, the last in February, 1948,
when he found that he had
passed the entrance exami-
nation for a highly selective,
university-rank school whose
exact nature is not explained.
THE LETTERS COVER a
crucial period in Japan's his
tory. Events influence them,
of course, but they are not
about events. Nor are they a
record of the Japanese peo-
pie. The very idea Of the
correspondence is extraordin-
ary. Both senior Hotanos were
scholars, typical perhaps Of
their class in Japan but by
no means representative of
the country as a whole. The
letters between Ichiro and his
mother are deeply personal
and remarkably unreserved.
This is why they are always
interesting and occasionally
beautiful.
Odette Brunschwig's pref
ace suggests that the Hatanos
are paragons. The nobility
she appears to impute to
them is so vast that one
would hardly expect to en-
counter such people outside
the pages of old-fashioned,
moralizing literature.
