Spool Beads

To Mrs. r. w. L., jr., Rockville
From Mrs. NJ. w., Washington
After reading today's COL
umn and especially Toys
Needed" by Mrs. r. w. K. of
Rockville, it occurred to me
that readers could send her
empty thread spoolS.
These wooden spools can
be painted, using paint safe
for children should they put
it in their mouths. They can
then be threaded on elastic
cords to make spool beads.
The cost would be low and
the assembling process could
be a project for the teen-age
members Of the church to
take on.
Elaborate toys are not al
ways the one most enjoyed
by small children.

matter-that l have determined
for myself"
Some may think that state
ment immodest. But a Presi.
dent cannot afford to be mod
est. No one else sits where hi
sits or knows all that he knows
No one else has his power tc
lead, to inspire or to restrain
the Congress and country. II
he fails to lead, no one leads
THE buck" in Truman's words
stops here"
Name Labels Whole Era
A President knows that his
name will be the label for q
whole era. Textbooks yet un-
written and school children yet
unborn will hold him respon-
sible for all that happens. His
program, his power, his pres
tige, his place in history, per-
haps his reelection, will all be
affected by key decisions. His
appointees, however distin-
guished they may be in their
own right, will rise or fall as
he rises or falls. Even his
White House aides, who see
him constantly, cannot fully
perceive his personal stakes
and isolation. And no amount
of tinkering with the presiden-
tial machinery, or establish
ment of new executive offices,
can give anyone else his per-
spective.
Consequently, self-confidence
and Self-assertion are more i'm
portant than modesty. The Ma
ton selects its President, at
least in part, for his philosophy
and his judgment and his con-
scientious conviction of what
is right-and he need not hesi-
tate to apply them.
Must Believe In Objectives
He must believe in his own
objectives. He must assert his
own priorities. And he must
strive always to preserve the
power and prestige Of his office,
the availability Of his options,
and the long-range interests Of
the Nation.
To illustrate: If the good
faith and prestige of his office
have been engaged in an effort
to achieve a steel wage settle
ment which would make any
price increase unnecessary, then
such an increase, announced
Immediately after that settle
ment Is reached, requires a diff
ferent kind of response than
might otherwise have been nec-
essary.
Economists may tell him that
devaluation Of the dollar would
be the quickest and cheapest
solution to our balance of pay
ments and gold flow deficits.

THE PRESIDENT DECIDES
OVerruIing Advisers Carries Risks

But as chief custodian of the
national honor-mindful of the
effect such a move would have
on our international role anc
prestige, and on the confidence
Of other nations for decades tC
come-he prefers to chip away
at the deficit by slower, more
painful methods.
Cuba Refugee Reports Cited
A member of the Congress Oh
the press can achieve some
measure Of fame by reporting
rumors or stating problems OF
raising questions. But that is
not enough for a President.
Refugee reports of offensive
Soviet missiles installed on the
island of Cuba, for example
recurred for we'll over a year
before such missiles were ac-
tually brought in. Each report
was methodically checked out
by intelligence authorities; and
so long as their findings were
negative, no President-What-
ever others were saying-could
stake the dignity Of his office
and the security of the Nation
on unfounded rumors and ex-
aggeration.
And once such a threat was
found to exist 1t was preferable
to adopt a course which, as
President Kennedy has de-
scribed it. had the advantage
Of permitting other steps If this
one was unsuccessful"
A President who asserts the
presidential perspective and
disturbs the status quo will al
ways engender criticism. AS a
result of his involving his Of
flee, either directly or through
his staff, in many problems at
early stages, he is accused, in
effect, of presidential interfer-
ence with the Executive Branch
(Which is true).
Woodrow Wilson Quoted
AS a result of his taking the
initiative in a troubled world
and on a cluttered agenda, he
is accused of adjusting the
powers of his office to the
needs of his time (Which is also
true). And. finally, as a result
of his stalking the prestige of
his office on all kinds of mat
ters affecting the public good,
he is accused Of taking unto
himself the right to define as
well as defend the national in
terest-(and this also is true) =.

wisdom is constantly chal-
lenged.
The voluntary unity Of free
men and nations is ultimately
more solid than the forced uni
formity of repression. In the
long run, there can be no wis
dom without dissent, no prog
ress without diversity. no great
ness without responsibility.
Whatever party or person is
in the White House, these basic
truths will prevail. For in our
political system, as we learned
long ago in our religion, there
are diversities of gifts but the
same Spirit. And there are diff
ferences of administrations, but
the same Lord"

$325,000 Loot Suspect
Mum on Hiding Place

(AP) "A Canadian armored
car driver, accused in a $685.
900 theft from the vehicle in
Vancouver, smilingly kept a
secret today. He refused to
tell where the hoard is hidden.
TITS for me to know and up

John Brown, 35, commented at

Brown whether he thought he

considerable trouble; and other
appointees could cause trouble
in their own circles.
Prof. Neustadt reports that
Truman did not want his posi-
ton on a steel settlement un-
dermined by a public protest
or resignation from Secretary
OF Commerce Sawyer. Samuel
Rosenman commented that
Roosevelt could not afford po-
litically to ALLEVIATE Cordell Hull
to the point Of resignation.
Wilson was fearful - mis-
takenly, 1t turned out-that the
blame would be placed on him
when Bryan resigned from the
cabinet.
Harmony Eases Task
And, though no designations
were even potentially involved,
the fact that a majority OF all
the responsible officials in last
October's Cuban crisis came
to accept the course we finally
took" President Kennedy has
said, :. made it much easier" 4"
In short. almost every Presi-
dent is as reluctant to over
rule the determined opposition
OF his advisers as he is to veto
an act of the Congress. He
rules, to a degree, not only with
their advice but with their con-
sent.
But this is true only to a
degree. Consultation is not
slavish adherence; and consent
may often be induced. For only
one man under our system is
President. Only one man bears
all the burdens Of responsible
ity. Only one man, with his
running-mate, is accountable to
all the people.
Advisers may delay their ad-
vice, change their minds and
offer several alternatives.
Rules Wholly Different
But their roles and respon-
sibilities are wholly different
from his. Their views and vi
sions of where the world is
moving are far less grand than
his. mo matter how many ad-
