value of the agreement to
which they have pledged their
faith.
Moreover, it cannot now
be denied that their position
has been made more insecure
as 1t has become generally
known in Birmingham that
many of them went along
with the agreement only
after they had been urged
TO do so by officials in Wash
ington and by business
friends in Northern cities.
This Northern influence may
have eased the situation, but
it left a legacy of irritation
and 1t Is doubtful whether
this intervention should have
been so widely advertised.
Moderates cannot suddenly
be conJured up in the hour
of crisis. That is one impor-
tant lesson of Birmingham.
Another lesson still has to
be digested by many white
Americans in the North with
a gallant record in the strug-
gle against discrimination.
Without their help, the cause
of racial equality would have
made much less progress. But
there is abundant evidence
that from this point forward
the burden Of the struggle
will be carried by the Ne
groes themselves. Adjust
ment to this new state Of af-
fairs will not be easy for
Northern liberals with a pas
sion for freedom. They will
not always approve of what
will now be done, particularly
in its timing and its meth
ods. But they have little
choice. They are not being
discarded; they are being
supplanted. Their contribu.
ton in the long campaign
makes possible now a much
greater effort by the Negroes
themselves. The pride and
self-reliance of the Negroes
demand this new status.
There will be work enough
for white liberals, North and
South, in persuading this Ne
gro leadership that restraint
is not another word for
weakness and moderation is
not a symbol of retreat.
The trouble with the
moderate, all too often, is
that he fails to realize his

nor Germany is liked, who
believe that President Ken
nedy should attempt to ar
range a working visit with
Gen. de Gaulle for practical
reasons. For it is he, whether
we like to admit it or not,
who wields the major in
fluence in Western Europe
these days. His position is
firm-based on four rocks:

portant strategic country in

logiStic task in the event Of
a conventional war would be
rendered impossible. This has
been recognized by previous
administrations since 1948.
That was why we supported
so generously the weak and
changing French regimes.
2. The German-French al
lance, which probably marks
the most important milestone
in European history for
centuries, cannot be dis
solved or interfered with. 1t
has been fully accepted by
the French and German
people. No amount Of prom
ises and inveiglements can
affect that alliance.
8. France has a secret
weapon against undue pres
sure from Washington or
London-a vast amount Of
dollars for which she could
demand immediate gold pay
ment. 1t is unlikely that Gen.
de Gaulle will use this po-
tent weapon since 1t would
affect the economies of the
whole of Europe. But if we
forced his back to the wall
he could.
4. Gen. de Gaulle is the
only head of government in
Europe who can conduct a
continuous policy because
he enjoys the full conf
dence of the bulk of the
French people. The miracle
performed by him-and rec
ognized by his people - is
not economic but political
stability in a country which
has been corroded by politi-
cal strife for many decades.

Council Urges
Kennedy Plan
To Help AGED
BY the Associated Press

A presidential council re-
ports substantial progress to-
ward assuring greater dignity
and security for the older
American has been made in
the past Is years.
"But-so much still has to
be DONE" it said.
There are almost 18 million
Americans 65 years old or over.
The first annual report of
the Presidents Council on Ag-
ing yesterday made no specific
new recommendations on its
own.
Instead, it pointed to the
Kennedy program as outlined
in a special message on aging
to Congress last February 81.
The program includes hospital
insurance added to the Social
Security System.
The council said if this rec
ommendation, along with 9TH
ers. is approved, it will add "a
new dimension to the dignity
and self-respect of millions Of
the Nations older citizens"
The year-old council is COM
posed of five cabinet members
the Secretaries of Health,
Education and Welfare; Treas
ury, Agriculture, Commerce
and Labor-and three agency
heads. These are from the
Civil Service Commission, Vet
Grams Affairs and the Housing
and Home Finance Agency.
In its first report, it said, 1t
wanted to present a broad pic
ture of the aging in America
as a means of enlisting the in
terest and concern of Amer
leans generally.
Some of the parts of its pic
ture:
The primary need of older
Americans is a basic plan of
hospital insurance.
The average older person liv-
ing alone has an income Of
only $l,055 a year.
OF the people IS or older who
head households, about one
third live in dilapidated hous-
ing.
During the 1868 fiscal year,
the Federal Government will
spend or administer SIT billion
for the nearly 18 million older
Americans and will also pro-
vide special tax savings of SITS
million.
Among its recommendations,
the report included the pro-
posed tax reduction.

the Tragedy OF Blrmlng-
ham has forced all Of us
white and colored, in the
North as we'll as the South
to look again at our own first
principles on race relations.
1t does not take US very far
to say, as almost everyone is
now saying, that we need
more moderates. That is a
mere benevolent truism un-
less it creates a strategy Of
action which will produce
enough gains to muzzle the
extremists on both sides.
What is moderation in this
racial crisis? Rev. Martin
Luther King Is an agitator
and trouble-maker to many
honorable people in the
South; but many Negroes,
not Black Muslims, think he
is too timid in his aims and
too tentative in his methods.

sures and imposed its man.

others. He did not create the
crisis and it will not pass
with his departure to an
other city. What has been
happening in Birmingham is
the heightened shadow Of
history, not the product Of
a few men. Similar upheav-
ais will disgrace other cities
and other States unless dis
content bows to reason before
it flames into violence.
Few things in Birming-
ham have been more sur
prising or more depressing
than the reluctance of its
leaders in the dominant
white community to take a
public stand in favor of a
racial agreement. 1t is a libel
on Birmingham to believe
that it is without men Of
honor and courage. Yet they
have remained strangely
mute, or else have hedged
their protests against the
outrages. Why should this
be? They cannot all tremble
for their personal safety nor
fear the boycott of their
firms. The answer-and it is
deeply disquieting-must be
that they fear the survival

1t is no longer a question

In Bonn, Mr.. Kennedy's ap-

Venezuela Heads for Elections

In 1858, Mr.. Betancourt
was elected by the votes Of
the farmers and peasants
against the opposition of most
townspeople. He has not tried
to change this pattern: only
to intensity it. His reform
ing energies have gone into
the countryside. Money, in
cluding Alliance for Progress
money, has been spent on
land reform. primary schools,
sewerage and water supply
for the villages. Meanwhile,
the urban situation, parti-
cularly in Caracas. has de-
Perforated. One of Venezuela's
basic troubles is that the
oilfields, which provide the
country with a third Of its
national income, employ only
2 per cent of the working
population. The rate Of .,r-
banization has been excep-
tionally high, and unemploy-
ment in the towns has now
risen 10 around II per cent.
The atmosphere in Caracas
is raw and angry.
President Betancourt's
problems highlight how diff
ficult it has become for the
United States successfully to
partner its southern neigh
bors. The decision, by the
administration, to support an
enlightened and relatively
popular leader, despite the
economic nationalism of
some Of his policies. has, to
some extent, turned sour on
Mr.. Betancourt. The resent
ment that so many Venezuela
ans feel towards American
influence and presence falls
squarely on the presidents
head. His opponents, short
of practical ideas on how to
manage better themselves,
are reduced to attacking him
for currying Washington's
favor at the expense of his
cNuntry's interests. Fallacious
as this argument is, 1t may
be heard a lot during the
election campaign-that is,
If the elections are held.
