Cuba Crisis Seen
Teaching Lessons

@. Governor, do you think
that we as a people or govern
ment learned anything in the
recent Cuban crisis2
A. I think as a government
we learned the Importance of
constant vigilance. AS q people
we learned, perhaps by the fact
that the menace was brought
closer to our shores then ever
before, of the extremely peri
lous world in which we live
and again the Importance of
avoiding a repetition Of this
kind Of threat to our security.
And we can't be wholly self
ish about 1t. II we're con-
cerned with the threat to our
security because of the indi-
visibility Of the world. we have
to be concerned with the threat
TO the other mans security,
and little by little we become
preoccupied with the security
of all.
q. DO you feel you as an in
dividual diplomat learned any
thing In the Cuban crisis2
A. Perhaps I'm q little pre-
sumptuous to think that I ever
learn anything. but I can't
help but believe that this was
a useful experience for me per-
sonally as well as for my
countrymen: That we had this
terrible threat, that we were
able to resolve 1t by peaceful
means. that we explored every
avenue in the most careful
thoughtful Way Of the means to
deal with 1t and also what
consequences would flow from
each alternative method, and
that out Of this came a syn
thesis Of opinion and a policy
and program that worked ex-
tremely well.
/ think that this was a good
exercise both In self-restraint
and in most careful analysis
OF alternatives.
Also. we learned again the
Importance Of maintaining har-
monious relationships with our
allies. The unanimity OF the
vote In the Organization OF
American States In support OF

the American blockade Of Cuba
was O good illustration. We
haven't had total unanimity-
total support for the American
position among all the Latin
American states In recent
years. Yet, in this case. when
we were all under the gun and
menaced by the same nuclear
threat. we found that solidar-
ity could be quickly re-estab-
lished.
You could say in response
to that, we'll, in times Of trou-
BILE, you hang together but
when times are easier you'll
fall apart. It's one of the great
problems we have now In pre-
serving our Western alliance.
When new and competing in
terests are emerging. we find
1t ever harder to maintain soli-
darity. This is one of the great
tests Of diplomacy. This isn't
something the U.N. can do for
us.
We can resolve many of our
problems bilaterally and we will
continue to do so. We can re-
solve many Of them regionally
and we will continue to do so.
But there's this new dimension,
the universal dimension, which
becomes more important as ma
tons have to live in greater
proximity.
Also. we know that histori-
cally every time q great i'm
perialism has disappeared,
whether 1t was Greece or Rome
or whatever, 1t has always been
followed by a vacuum in which
another Imperialism flowed,
and this has always been a
time Of brutality and violence
and strife.
If we can effect the transit
ton from the old Western i'm
perialism to the new multi
national world without a period
Of extreme violence, without
the new Communist imperial
ism flowing into the vacuum,
this will Be q remarkable thing.
This is one of the roles the
United States has to perform,
to offer a bridgehead, a transi-
ton from the old Western i'm
perialism to the new world
without violence.

Persuasion of Reds
Sometimes Possible

Q. In today's diplomacy and
negotiation, does the logic Of
one sides argument or the vir-
tue Of its cause ever persuade
the other side. or is 1t simply
power that talks?
A. I'm convinced that we not
only persuade others Of the
rightness Of our views or the
wrongness Of theirs, and they
sometimes persuade us, but it's
even possible TO persuade the
Soviet Union. / don't say the
reason 1t changes its views Is
persuasion; it's self-interest. /
can illustrate what I mean.
II wasn't long ago that we
we're negotiating about the Sc

questions was whether the Rus

In the agreement. The Rus
slams took the position that
they we're not included in the
agreement reflected in the cor

Kennedy and Chairman Khru-
shchev. We took the position
that they were.
In the course OF time. the
Russians shifted their position
and removed those bombers.

the fact that they were per-

Thinks Image of US.
Chances Constantly

@. Much used to be said,
especially during campaigns,
about the image Of America
held abroad. Do you feel 1t has
changed any?
A. I think 1t changes all the
time. There are periods of an
ti-Americanism and periods of
pro-Americanism, and this is
usually regional. Anything can
happen which can upset the
relationship between our coun-
try and another country at any
time, whether it's cutting off
economic assistance or taking
q position that is distasteful
to that country in foreign
policy.
But I think the big thing
to remember about Americas
image abroad Is that in spite
Of all our failures, in spite Of
the Misrepresentation by Com
munists about the Unite d
States-the fact still remains
and Is still well perceived all
over the world that the United
States is not ambitious, that 1t
is not aggressive, that it does
practice democracy. that 1t has
a form of government which
most every country would like
to have II they could afford
1t or were prepared for 1t.
They also don't overlook the
fact that this Country has be-
haved with a magnanimity
that knows no historical coun-
terpart. Not only have we been
generous with our goods but
we have also been generous
with our blood. We preserved
the peace and prevented ag-
erosion In Korea. We have
emerged on the side Of freedom
and democracy In the great
wars in Europe. We've poured
out our substance endlessly to
serve these ends. We still have
the greatest and most precious
export commodity in the world,
and that is the concept Of free
dom that we not only talk
about, 1t is also practiced.
Now, we've made failures. We
still have vestiges Of discrimi-
nation In our Country and
these we have to eradicate. We
have also been self-righteous,
we've also preached, and these
things, humility. humbleness,
some Of these homely virtues
we talk about at home perhaps
we always haven't practiced
abroad. We've also talked
loudly about our military Prov
ess. We, too, have been guilty
from time to time Of some OF
the things that we charge our
enemies with - rafting the
saber and so on - but for
the most part. over all, on bal
ance, as against all Of the
other countries Of the world in
modern historical times, this
Country has maintained the
most resonant reputation for
honesty. for sincerity. for mag
nanimity and for virtuous' pur-
pose and also a concern. II you
please, for the survival OF those
institutions Of peace keeping
on which all Of the smaller
countries are dependent.

that they exposed to the judge
ment Of impartial, objective
persons of the world, If you
please. That our position was
so strong they had to give up
on 1t.
And, incidentally, speaking
Of Cuba, I think it's well to
bear in mind that the United
Nations performed In the clas-
sic manner in which it was in
tended to perform in that case,
the most recent major threat
to peace and security in the
world. 1t provided in the
Security Council a forum in
which we could ventilate our
complaint against the Soviet
Union for introducing these
weapons into the western
world, for upsetting the bal
ance of power. 1t afforded q
forum for marshaling world
opinion. 1t afforded machinery
for Cancellation and negotia-
ton. This is what the charter
intended in these peace-keep-
ing operations, and in this case
it was a good example Of how
it worked.
(Mr. Stevenson cited other
examples Of U.N. effectiveness
in crisis: In Suez, Israel, Laos.
West New Guinea, the Congo.
He then began to develop the
prediction that the future Is
likely to bring more and more
U.N. intervention in crisis.)
@. Do you think, governor.
that individual nations will
have to give UP more and more
Of their sovereignty for the
sake Of a strong international
organization
A. Well, we've been yielding
sovereignty bit by bit. I sup
pose this process will 60 on,
that more and more states will
feel they have TO respond to
the majority view, to the or
ganized opinion of the world
Whether they do this volun-
tarily or do this under coercion
is one of the problems we have
to confront. But the relin-
quishment itself, which causes
many people such anxiety, is
a process that has been going
on for some time and I think
will go on more and more in
the interest of the security of
nations as q whole.
@. On the question Of yield
ing some sovereignty as we 60
along to the U.N., do you i'm
agine that?
A. Not only to the U.N. I
don't want to put 1t Just in
those terms. Every treaty the
state enters into is q relin-
quiShment of sovereignty
We've relinquished a great deal
Of independence over our be-
havior in the Western Henri
sphere under the Rio pact of
the Organization Of American
States. I don't think people
sometimes realize that q treaty
in itself is an agreement under
which a state gives UP some
thing In exchange for some

Here's 4 Few
Simple Rules
On Boating

If yours is a boating family
with some small fry mariners
in the crew, it's a good idea
to teach the young ones a few
simple rules as well as dos
and don'ts when they first
come aboard the family boat.
First and foremost, make it
a hard and fast rule that the
younger children must wear
life preservers every second
they're in the boat. The new
life jackets designed for kids
are light and colorful. The
youngsters will get used to
wearing them and your peace
of mind will benefit
Even when they get older,
the children should wear their
life jackets until they know
how to swim well.
"Foolin' around" has its place
in the backyard, but not on
the water. Explain to the kids
that confined deck areas don't
permit them to cut their custc-
mary capers. Ask them to
walk, not run; fish, not fight.
Even tots surprise their par
ents with how quickly they
absorb many bits of nautical
lore. Encourage this; knowledge
of the water is the key to safe
boating.

seasonal expectations, although
even this marks a showdown
from the rapid rate of increase
experienced in the final months
of 1862. Time deposits also

Although little evidence exists

such as various indicators have
suggested at the national level,
district businessmen in general
are expressing optimism about
current prospects.
Automobile and farm mach
inery dealers, particularly, have
been enjoying favorable sales
in recent weeks. Total nonfarm
employment and personal in
come continue to expand at
modest rates, while department
store sales and total bank deb

record levels for the western
areas of the region.

debated for nearly a month two
years ago in 1861, the size of the
Committee on Rules.
This year the debate was short
and the decision was swift AS the
Minority Leader, Mr.. Halleck of
Indiana, said during the debate, the
events of the past two years had
proved that the question of the
enlargement of the Rules Commit
tee and quote. did not make much
difference" | agree with Mr. Hal
leck in this. but as a matter of
parliamentary procedure it is
proper to bring Legislation to the
Floor for substantive decisions
rather than to have the decision on
the merit made by a small num-
Der of the Members of the House.
1t is true of course that the Rules
Committee may protect Members
of the House from difficult deci-
sions on the Floor, but we were
not elected to evade responsibility.
Again, this is not a question of
whether or not the House is going
to be liberal or conservative in the
88th Congress. 1t is simply a matter
of parliamentary procedure and
does not reflect or forecast deci-
sions on any of the legislation
which will come before us in the
next two years. Consequently,
voted again as l had in 1861, for
the addition of the three Members
to the Rules Committee to make it
a full Committee of fifteen.
This will, nope, be a compromise
which vii! make the Committee
more representative of the will of
the House and more effective as
an instrument for regulating the
flow of legislative business. When
ether legislation is set before us,

best interest of the people of the
