Senator Stands Toll in Lone Star State,

new knowledge. and frankly
admitting these changes,
then he wiz be clinging to
principles that reveal his
pitiable inadequacies as a
guide on foreign policy. In
consistency may be prefer
able to stark error, and a
lighter burden in an election
campaign.
Senator Goldwater's refus-
al to use a Republican brain
truSt-and despite mockery
by the Kennedy administra-
ton there really are Repub-
hcan brains that can be
trusted-would be a clear
indication that he is willing
to continue his practice Of
making statements on foreign
policy tragically deficient in
their intellectual content.
In this state it is impos-
sible, of course. to think Of
Democratic prospects with
out thinking Of Vice Presi-
dent Lyndon johnson. At
every stage Of his career he
has been a controversial
figure in Texas, having his
critics and opponents as well
as his supporters. But it is
generally conceded that Sem
ator John Kennedy would
never have carried Texas
without Senator Johnson's
help in 1860, and that Presi-
dent Kennedy would have a
forlorn cause in Texas in 1864
without Vice President john
sons active support.
One Of the most surprising
discoveries Of this visit to
Texas is the depth Of feeling
against the so-called Ken
nedy dynasty. In Washington
this complaint has dwindled
to a pleasant little joke. Out
here men swear angrily and
women edge their speech with
hardness as they 6enounce

Swiss Challenge to Mans Spirit

rarely got above the Ice Hose)
boosted of their intentions.
In the pre-dawn hours the
good men Just quietly left
for the mountain.
And In 1898 the North Face
was climbed. Andreas Heck
MAR. Ludwig Vorg. Fritz
Kasparek and Heinrich Har-
rer made it In four days,
and Harrer's book, THE
White Spider" is q noun
taineering classic.
Nine years later two
Frenchmen got up, q month
later three Germans. With
each success the interest in
creased. The year 1852 was
"the good year." Nineteen
men reached the top.
Then the mountain turned.
In July 1858, Korber and VaSs
were swept away during q
storm and the next month
Wyss and Gonda fell from
the summit ice-slope. In
1856 was Sohnel and Moos-
muller and in 1857 the Corti
disaster. One body, held by
a belt, swung groteSquely for
two years before it was cut
down. But still they come,
and last month a young
Swiss went up all by himself
in 80 hours.
Why?
The safe wiseacres at the
valley telescopes talk Of
thirst for glory" The anna
teur psychiatrists suspect that
these climbers are misfitS try
ing to prove that they are
conquerors. But the face of
the Eiger seems to be no
place for neurotics, and in
their normal lives climbers
rarely display personality
problems.
So why, again7
Heinrich Harrer tries an
answer:
81 do not think any one Of
us who climbed that 5000
foot bastion Of rock and ice
was at anytime in fear Of
his life. But after our safe
return we felt more con-
scious Of the privilege Of hav-
ing been allowed to live. The
Eiger's face helped me to be-
ieve in life when all the
circumstances seemed most
hostile to life ITSELF"
Or, as old Kurt Max put
It: Climbing is the most
royal irrationality out Of
which man has been able to
fashion the highest personal
values"
I'll never understand it. But
after q look at the Eiger I'll
never sneer again.

MAX FREEDMAN

HOUSTON-In Texas Sen
ator Goldwater throws a long
shadow. He is so far ahead Of
any other Republican that no
one else is in sight. His per-
Sonal popularity is much
greater than President Ken
nedy's. II nominated, he will
be supported by many dis
contented Democrats and
will give the Kennedy John
son ticket great trouble.
Even among Senator Gold
waters own Republican sup
porters, however, there is I'M
eaSineSS over mis- foreign
policy. In fact it Is being said
that the Senator really has
no policy. He merely has a
talent for creating phrases
and slogans that express a
public mood. These words
could never be turned into
policies without wrecking the
principles that have been
supported by strong MAORI
ties in both parties for many
years.
Senator Goldwater has
never given any proof that
he can replace these policies
with reasoned alternatives.
His concept of today's
troubled world disturbs Re-
publicans and diSenchanted
Democrats who like his views
on domestic policy and want
to vote for him of only he
would talk less rubbish on
world affairs.
His wiSest friends In Texas
hope he will respect these
criticisms. They want him to
form a group Of advisers,
drawn from the universities
and from officials of the
Eisenhower administration,
to teach him the uses and
the limits Of American power
in a divided and dangerous
world. They think he will
lose less votes by revising

JUNGFRAUJOCH, Swift
erland.-Above the pretty
village Of Wnderswill with
its flower-decked chalets, the
Black Luchine boils and leaps
down the narrow valley be-
tween the Mannheim and
the Faulhorn.
High on the stream, look
ing east toward the massive
Matterhorn and southwest
to the dazzling white crown
Of the Jungfrau, lies Grim
delwald, the sparkling ski
resort so often in the winter
newSreels.
Above Grindelwald there is
a broad meadow, on its lower
reaches forming a steep but
smooth slope that climbs
$500 feet to the cog railway
station at Kleine Scheidegg.
In the snow months this is
rated as the finest ski run in
Europe.
But as the slope nears the
mountain it steepens. It is
studded by huge boulders
and scored by deep ravines.
Above that there is the area
of fallen rock, hundreds of
feet of crushed rubble hurled
down from the crags and
lodges by frost and thaw,
wind and avalanche. And
above all that begins the
North Face of Eiger-6,000
feet Of nearly sheer rock wall.
Somewhere up there are
two little mounds of snow,
new to the mountain. They
mark the bodies of two
Spanish climbers, trapped in
June. Somewhere, also, for
the past six years, have lain
the remains of Gunther
Northdurft and Franz Mayer.
All the rest Of the climbers
Of the Eiger are accounted
for.
1t has been % years since
Max Seidmayer and Karl
Mehringer decided to smash
the universally-held convic-
ton that the Eiger's north
face was unclimbable. In
that time ia men have
hurled themselves against the
wall. Seventy-nine have eth
er made 1t to the top or been
successfully rescued. Twenty
five are dead.
The pioneers, Seidimayer
and Mahr1nger, led the parade
of death. Crowds Of sight
seers queued up before the
telescopes in the valley as the
young Munich men rounded
the First Pillar, made their
way UP the difficult Crack,
crawled under the overhang-

ouacked for the night near
the Swallows Nest. But the
next day In a bombardment
Of falling rock they only
inched 800 feet up the Sec
ond Ice Field. On the third
day they seemed heSitant.
You can study a mountain
through a valley telescope or
pore with a magnifying glass
over an aerial photograph.
But on the face it is never
the same. What seems a
mere shadow from a distance
may be an impossible out
thrust. What looks like an
inviting ledge from a swift
moving plane may prove only
a stratum Of rotten rock.
Pioneers are not armed with
answers. They come only
with questions.
On the fourth and fifth
days heavy clouds shrouded
the fate Of the climbers. The
mountain was racked by biz
yards, sleet and lightning.
But on the sixth day the
mists parted for a moment
and there they were, strug-
Cling Just above the Third
Ice Field. That night the
greatest storm of all secured
the face of the Eiger. A
year later two frozen bodies
were lowered from what is
still known as the Death
Bivouac.
In 1886 the great Bavarian
guide, Anderl Hintersoisser,
found the key to the lower
part Of the climb in what
is now known as the Hin
tersoisser Traverse. But he
and two companions were
swept down In an avalanche.
The fourth member Of the
party, Toni Kurz, had low
cred himself to within so feet
of his rescuers when a knot
damned in a cleat. He died
swinging.
But the challenge had
been voiced. Now the bravest
climbers in Europe began to
slip into Grindelwald to study
the Eiger. Most Of them were
poor and Observation-Disclosures,
masons, students, factory
workers. But practically all
were master rock men. Some
came by motor bike. Some,
too poor to afford sleeping
rooms, camped in the mead

the Eiger with five Swiss
francs in his pocket. Only

tilizer production and irri-
cation, thus bowling to the
agricultural experts who
wanted him to do this be-
fore. More than $12 billion
now have been allocated to
this scheme alone, as COM
pared with an annual ap-
preparation heretofore Of SIS
billion a year for the whole
agricultural program.
But $12 billion is big money
even in the Soviet Union, and
the expenditure comes at a
time when a huge waste Of
funds in thousands Of indus
trial projects has been noted.
Nearly $50 billion have been
poured into this field alone.
It's a way Of taking care Of
unemployment but, as hap
pened in the 1930s in this
country, made work" doesn't
last forever. The progress in
the Russian industrial pro-
jects has been very slow.
While more and more persons
have been given jobs, the ex-
pected contribution Of the
industrial projects to the
Russian economy as a whole
has not been realized. Very
few projects have been COM
pleted.
So Mr.. Khrushchev now has
had to apply priorities and
suspend work on some pro-
jects while accelerating
others. The result has been
chaos in economic planning,
as the work on electric-power
stations and chemical plants,
for instance, has been held
in allegiance. British experts
who have studied at first
hand the facts about Russia's
economic problems say that,
in the face Of the crisis in
agriculture as well as in the
plans for industrial projects,
Premier Khrushchev has no
choice but to cut down arms
spending.
All this points up to q
budget of excessive spending
by the Soviet government
and, Of course, without pro-
viding any money to go to
the moon. Seven days ago In
the issue Of 20. s. News &
World Report" there appeared
a dispatch from London
which said: Soviet officials
are limiting that they would
like to obtain a United States
agreement to call off the
moon race altogether, rather
than face the prohibitive cost
of trying to win it."
Certainly there isn't money
enough, either, for a big "for-
eign aid" program now by
the SovietS. They are begin
ming to curtail it. For dan
gerous preSsures are building
up within the Soviet Union
which are compelling some
major changes to be made in
spending policy.
Maybe the idea Of going to
the moon has some scientific
value, but 1t will be noted

Committee, in discussing the

New Methods
Help Retarded

A wide range Of. treatments
has brought one out Of four
children. identified as retarded
before they were one year old
in a special study, into the nor
NAL intelligence range in q few
years.
DR.. Richard Koch, director
Of the Child Development
Clinic at Los Angeles Children's
Hospital, reported these results
with 143 children over q nine
year period. DR.. Koch was a
speaker at the National As
ISOLATION for Retarded Chill
dren'S annual convention
which ended last night at the
Mayflower Hotel here.
OF the 143 children with
mild to moderate retardation
as babies, "a per cent began
to show normal abilities and

DR.. Koch explained that
these results were because of

Dollars and sense-with q
capital as" in that third
word-applies as a slogan of
national policy in the Soviet
Union, too. For it's the prin-
cipal reason why Premier
Khrushchev has called off
the race to the moon. The
Russians simply haven't got
the money for the contest
and, If the Americans want
to go broke on such an adj
venture, Moscow wishes them
success"
It should have been no
surprise to official Wash
ington to read that the Rus
slams have taken themselves
out Of the moon race. The
State Department had more
than an inkling Of it some
time ago. In fact, that's why
President Kennedy politely
proposed a joint effort to go
to the moon, knowing full
well that it would publicize
American willingness to CO.
operate with the Soviet and
would furnish a convenient
setting for either side to
wiggle out Of or slow down
the moon race.
Intelligence sources avail
able to our European allies,
plus information gathered by
diplomatic observers, several
weeks ago prompted the con-
clusion that Premier Khrush-
chev was up against q SER
ious dilemma in his spending
policies. He doesn't have an
opposition political party, nor
does he have the advice Of
any constructive critics, such
as President Kennedy has in
Senator Harry Byrd, Demo-
crat of Virginia, chairman Of
the Senate Finance Commit
tee. But the Soviet chieftain
has been struggling for sew
eral months now with an
economic problem that no
censorship or technique Of
managed news" has been
able to hide from the outside
world. AS for internal po-
litical turbulence to the
economic distress Of the
Soviet people-the danger
always Is that some element
in the army may suddenly
capitalize on the discomfort
and upset the men in the
Kremlin. So caution and
quick changes to satisfy pub
lie sentiment became urgent.
The basic ingredients of
depression in Russia are easy
to recognize. The agricul-
tJIral situation is bad. It has
led to an ignominious maneu-
ver-the decision to purchase
$250,000,000 worth of wheat
from the United States. Des-
pite the fact that for the
last eight years Khrushchev
has gambled on the develop
ment Of virgin lands"
effort which cost an enor-
nous amount of money-the
areas have turned out to be
dust bowls. Waste and in
efficiency in the farming
system and, indeed, in the
central planning has been
revealed. The Russian people
have at times been skeptical
whether Communism is, after
all, as efficient as it has
been portrayed to them. They
are beginning to get the
answer.

desperation, has decided to
