The Old Clash

The nearly complete substitu-
ton OF leaders raises hopes that
the threat Of disintegration Of
NATO, brought about largely by
the clash between the disparate
Grand Designs" Of Gen. de Gaulle
and Mr.. Kennedy, may somehow
be arrested and reversed.
Reports from diplomatic sources
In Paris say that the French are
optimistic, although Gen. de
Gaulle is in no apparent hurry to
consummate his desired formal
meeting with Mr.. johnson. The
best guess now Is that the two
will not confer until sometime
next spring, in Washington.
One reason the French are said
to be more optimistic on Franco
American relations is that their
national nuclear striking force is
now a reality and no longer a
dream or plan. They feel that
this. together with Sir Alec's de-
termination to maintain and
strengthen Britatn's independent
atomic arsenal, may help set the
stage for q compromise on an

A Summation

Perhaps the best summation ap-
peared in the New York Herald
Tribune. which found his address
fitting and at times inspiring:
In Congress, Mr.. johnson had
a reputation for getting things
done; he was master Of the Sen
ate, but his mastery, to most Of
the public, was yelled in mystery.
His arena was the Senate cloak
room and the fastness of the
majority leaders office not the
public platform. and even at the
height of his power he never en-
gagged the public imagination.
But Wednesday was Lyndon
Johnson's day, and as he stood
before Congress and the Nation.
he showed himself not fluke of
history but a President. He had
the presence Of President. and
he said the things a President
should have said"
The murder of President Ken
needy shocked foreigners. and the
image Of America apparently suf-
fered even more with the Staying
of his assassin two days later in
a police station. The Japanese
press especially wondered Just how
well law governed the United
States. Mainichi, a large news
paper. saw the shadow Of the Old
Vests quick justice" at work.
Asahi said the double murder dealt
blow to the idea that America
leads in democracy and constitu-
tional government.

THE FOREIGN SCENE
Support for D. S. Policies in International Realm

President Johnson last week
pledged to pursue the foreign
policies Of his predecessor.
This Nation will keep its COM
mitmentS from South Wet Nam
to West Berlin. We will be I'M
ceaSing in the search for peace.
From this chamber of rep
resentative government let all the
world know, and none misunder-
stand, that I rededicate this Gov
eminent to the answering sup
port Of the United Nations, to
the honorable and determined ex-
ecution Of our commitments to
our allies, to the maintenance of
military strength second to none
to the expansion Of our for
eign trade to the reinforcement of
our programs Of mutual assistance
and cooperation in Asia and Africa
and to our Alliance for Progress
in this hemisphere"
Thus did Lyndon Baines john
son, in his first major speech since
he succeeded the late President
Kennedy as Americas Chief Ex-
ecutive on November %, set the
broad course Of foreign policy for
his administration before q joint
session of Congress last wednes-
day.

Comment

The Nations press was not long
In recognizing the impact Of Pres
ident Johnson's personality upon
the executive branch. His speech
to Congress on Wednesday drew
special praise.
1T Is particularly significant
that Mr.. johnson, the first Presi.
dent in almost q century whose
political base was the South"
editorialized the New York Times.
met the issue Of civil rights
head-on."
Said the Wall Street Journal In
an article on his diplomacy:
.. The notion, already advanced
in Europe. that the new United
States President is untutored or
inexperienced In foreign affairs
hardly fits the record Of q man
who has visited almost every COR
ner Of the globe"
The bouncy New York Daily
News especially liked his tough
order to get on with the war
in South Wet Nam. Lyndon john
son, declared the tabloid. under.
stands Khrushchev perfectly.
Just as almost any Texan under
stands cattle and sheep thieves
and border bandits, and knows
the most effective ways Of COM
batting them"
To be sure. there were a few
dissenting voices. The conserva-
tive Chicago Tribune reckoned
the spending program President
johnson inherited at $107 billion
and grumbled that more deficits
were on the way. His speech, the
paper complained, could hardly
have resolved these doubts"
But most newspapers praised
his sincerity and vigor, rejecting
the confidence the Chief Execu-
tive had restored to the Nation.

ties abroad In the wake of the
transfer Of power in the worlds
most powerful state.
Earlier in the week, on Mon
day and Tuesday, Mr.. johnson
had given the same pledge pri-
vately to a number of outstand-
ing governmental leaders or their
representatives who had come to
Washington for the state funeral
of John F. Kennedy.
The tall Texan, who seems to
be from another generation of
men than his predecessor al
though he, too. Is, at IS, a goth
century man. had informal con-
versationS with a broad sampling
of foreign officials. They ranged
from Emperor Halle Selassie of
Ethiopia. an authoritarian who
nevertheless has a high ranking
among the newly independent
peoples of Africa, to President de
Gaulle of France, a man whose
lofty, long-range view of things
has frequently clashed with
United States policies within the
Free World camp, to Anastas
Mikoyan. First Deputy Premier
of the Soviet Union.
Mr.. Johnson had met some of
these leaders before-on his trips
abroad for Mr.. Kennedy during
the last three years. He had, it
might be noted, travelled more
extensively than his predecessor,
having visited Senegal, South
Wet Nam. the Philippines, For
mosa, Thailand. India, Pakistan,
West Germany and Berlin, Swe-
den, France, Lebanon, Iran,

Gun Sales

In another development, Sem
ator Dodd of Connecticut an
nounced plans to broaden his bill
which would tighten restrictions
on interstate sale Of firearms BY
mail. The revised version would
cover all firearms, not just pistols,
and would require a purchaser to
furnish an affidavit from . law
enforcement agency.
Abandoning their suspicion of
White House dealings with Iron
Curtain countries, lawmakers In
House-Senate conference last
week agreed to continue the Pres
ident's authority to aid Red coun-
tries If he deems it vital to our
security.
A Senate clause previously had
sought to ban any foreign aid to
the Communist bloc. In effect.
the move signaled a quiet accom-
mediation to the administration.
which had opposed the ban. The
bill now leaves the President
flexibility in the matter.

Major Bills

Sentiment mounted In both
houses to commemorate the mar.
tyred President by passing his two
major rights and tax bills. But 1t
is physically and mechanically
impossible" Senate Minority
Leader Dirksen told reporters, to
do so in 1868, a fact they all knew
already. Congress now plans to
recess December 20 for the holi-
days. and both bills are snagRed
in committees. Whether the emo
ton OF last week could be sus-
tanned In 1864 was a question no
one could answer. The best that
leaders could promise was a clear
deck for action early next year.
Punctuating Senator Dodd's
proposed restriction on firearms
late last week was one more in
the incredible series Of Texas
Shootings. A truck driver reported
to police he fled from his vehicle
Thursday night after driving in
the vicinity Of Oswald's cemetery
grave when an unknown gunman
fired two bullets through the
trucks windows. Clearly, some
kind Of law was needed to restore
sanity to the States trigger-happy
citizens.

issue which has been dividing
NATO.
This French optimism may,
however. be premature. Mr.. John
son last week let it be known
that he strongly supports the
Eisenhower Kennedy proposal for
a mixed-manned. ea-based force
Of surface warshipS armed with
Polaris missiles as a NATO stra-
tegic striking unit.
This multilateral force. or MILF
as it is called, is said to be pick
ing up support in Europe. West
Germany and Italy appear to be
the strongest hackers. but even
Britain, which has been reluctant
to join. repeatedly is showing
more enthusiasm for it. France
on the other hand. has opposed
the idea from the beginning.
The President of the United
States. Of course. has great pow
ers and initiatives in the foreign
field. Mr.. johnson is accordingly
under no obligation to adopt each
and every policy bearing the Ken
nedy label. But in addition to his
verbal pledge to carry forward the
major ones, the new President re-
portedly will keep Mr.. Kennedys
chief advisors in the foreign pol
icy field as his own. Both Secre-
tary of State Dean Rusk and Nc
George Bundy. the key White
House aid on international secur-
ity matters, will remain in their
posts.

many observers believe that the

Shocked by the brutality in
Texas, the House and Senate

patty to the Kennedy family and
adjourned to Join the funeral
procession.
Senator Margaret Chase Smith
Of Maine laid a single red rose on
the old Senate desk Of John F.
Kennedy. 1t expressed more than
all their words his colleagues grief.
The next day a furry of bills
appeared in the Senate, aimed at
inhibiting attempts on the Presi-
dents life by giving the Federal
government full jurisdiction in
such cases. Many persons were
also dismayed by the sloppy local

THE WEEK IN PERSPECTIVE
As New Administration lakes Over

President Lyndon B. johnson
finished his first week In office
Friday with clear signs that he
viii be . vigorous, firm execu-
tive. The Nation paid its formal
tributes to John +. Kennedy in
a state funeral and in countless
pilgrimages TO his graveside in
Arlington Cemetery.
"All I have I would have given
gladly not to be standing here to-
day"
Thus began Lyndon Baines
Johnson. seth President Of the
United States. in his first address
last week to q Joint session of
Congress.
The words rang true. No one
wanted to exchange places with
him in that moment; he had the
worst job in the Nation: The
splendid misery Of the White
House.
He was not yet really installed.
He had not yet moved his family
into the White House. For the
first few days, he conducted af-
fairs from the fort-like Executive
Office Building west Of the White
House where his old vice presiden-
tial offices were located.
The masterful qualities that
had flashed on 50 many occasions
during his six-year reign as
Democratic leader in the Senate
could not be hidden for long. Aft
er recovering from the initial
shock Of the November % assassi-
nation, President johnson moved
with force into the terrible vacu-
UNI. The result was a reassuring
image.
In quick contact with congress
sional leaders. In practiced and
easy greeting to the scores Of
foreign visitors last week end, and
in Q dozen decisions President
johnson seemed tailored for his
new Job.

30 Governors, the President also
announced he would press for en-
actment Of the tax cut and civil
rights bills proposed by. President
Kennedy.
And he directed the Justice De-
partment to conduct q prompt In
vestigation not only Of President
Kennedy's assassination but how

cused slayer. Lee Harvey Oswald,
to be murdered.

need for economy in defense

Even before his address to Con-

clear that he fully supported two
existing United States efforts
abroad-the Alliance for Progress,
which Is aimed at improving the
economic lot Of Latin America
and helping It toward democratic
independence and freedom. and
the program of economic and
military aid to South Wet Nam,
a nation under increasing attack
by Communist guerrillas.

Summit Ahead

Premier Khrushchev, a gambling
man, may elect to test the new
American Chief Executive in a
bit of draw poker. It is said he
would like a summit meeting in
the not too distant future. But he
may rest assured that Mr.. John
son will insist that he place his
siX-Shooter on the table before
the game begins.
Where the more interesting
test of Mr.. johnson on the world
scene may come is within the
Free World alliance. With the
exception Of Gen. de Gaulle, all
the major NATO powers have
brand-new leaders at the helm.
