On Civil Rights

ALBANY, N. Y, June 26
(AP).-Republican Gov. Nelson
A. Rockefeller has called on all
members OF both parties in
Congress TO support President
Kennedy's civil rights program.
The potential candidate for
the O. o. P. presidential nomi-
nation next year told a news
conference:
1T is imperative that Con-
gress act promptly TO pass this
long-overdue legislation"
The Governor expressed the
hope that Republicans, includ-
ing Senate Minority Leader
Dirksen, would reconcile their
differences with the Presidents
proposals.
Mr.. Rockefeller repeated his
complaint that the President
had acted two years too late
and that earlier decisions might
have avoided a lot Of the ten
sions and difficulties that have
arisen"

KENNEDY
Red Flags Obscure

ITO prevent rebirth of Ger

ITO ban all militarists and
Nazism propaganda.
ITO ensure that Germany
never again menaces her
neighbors and world peace.
These pledges have been
fulfilled in the (EaSt) German
Democratic Republic. When
will these pledges be fulfilled
in West Germany and West
Berlin, President Kennedy"
Mr.. Kennedy read the sign,
but showed no reaction.
Reds Take Pictures
Soviet guards came over from
their war memorial to take
pictures. The memorial is in
the British sector near the
Brandenburg Gate.
! Visitors to the Brandenburg
Gate can peer through its three
arches down Inter Den Linden,
the governmental center of
East Berlin.
But hurriedly last night the
East Berlin regime hung giant
red flags from the arches to
curtail Mr.. Kennedy's view into
the East. The flags ostensibly
were raised in celebration of
the visit Friday to East Berlin
of Soviet Premier Khrushchev,
As the Presidents motorcade
drove on to Checkpoint Char
lie. an elderly woman broke
from the throng and ran into
the street with a child in her
arms carrying a bunch of car
nations. A policeman started
to guide the pair away but the
President stopped the car, took
the flowers and spoke with the
woman.
Hundreds Of East Berliners,
standing about 500 yards away
behind the guns of East Ger
man guards, watched the Presi-
dents arrival at the check
point.
The President left his car
and walked past police to the
white line marking the border
He stood with his toes almost
touching the line, posing for
photographers.
Then Mr.. Kennedy moved To
the stand built so he could look
over the wall topped by barbed
wire.
Greeting Mayor Brandt on
his arrival, Mr.. Kennedy said
the legendary morale and
spirit OF the people OF West
Berlin have been a beacon for
the free world"
The President was accom-
panied by Gen. Lucius d. Clay,
retired, military governor Of
West Germany in 1948 at the
time Of the Berlin airlift and
the Presidents special repre-
sentative in the city during re-
cent times Of tension.
Mr.. Kennedy said he was

Mr.. Kennedy also said he was
glad to be in Berlin in the
company Of Chancellor Ade-
nauer and to have another
chance to discuss affairs with
Mayor Brandt. His diplomatic
reference to both officials
covered over a pre-visit tug
of-war over who would have
the honor Of accompanying the
President on his trip to Berlin
Mr.. Brandt welcomed the
President as 1.-The leading mar
Of the western world" and said
"our hope rests with your
leadership in the struggle fol

The Mayor expressed West

answer questions about the
future of the theater."
Mr.. Adams said the theater,
which occupies a third Of the
space in the Press Building, has
not provided the type Of reve-
nue. needed to justify its
existence.
A recent offer to buy the
building for So million and
continue operation of the the

Mr.. Adams said.
I'VE are just treading water

Informed sources said the
possibility Of the sale taking
place appears dim.
Several bills have been in
troduced in Congress In an
attempt TO save the theater,
which is now operated by
Loew's Theaters on a month
to-month lease. At least one
bill would authorize the Dis
trict government TO take over
the theater.
However, Walter N. Tobriner,
president Of the District Board
Of Commissioners. said the city
does not have funds to acquire
the theater by condemnation
and is not likely to get any.
Mr.. Tobriner recalled that
several months ago he had ap-
pointed a committee OF dis

save the theater, but he sale
this effort failed.

that this theater could not be

- INTERPRETATION
Wisdom of Berlin Trip
Still Being Debated

on the demogogic talents and
/ intercontinental stamina Of the
man who happens to occupy
the White House at any given
time?
Is 1t good policy for an Amer
lean President on a visit
abroad to make contentious
political speeches to emotional
foreign audiences2 viii the
ills Of the alliance be cured
by equating the policies Of one
or more Of It's major members
to aiding the Russians?
Objection Pointed Up
SO far as Berlin itself is
concerned, it was, by an odd
coincidence, the President him
self who put his finger
squarely on the major objec-
ton.
In the course Of his press
conference Monday, he was
asked with pointed insistence
why he did not plan to go to
East Berlin where, as IN the
Western sectors of the city, he
also has q perfect right to 60.
The Presidents answer was
short, huffy and sensible:
II don't think that any ges-
lures, however spectacular they
might be, would improve the
lot Of the people Of East Ber-
lin. That is why we are not
going"
All Of the Presidents trip so
far has amounted to a spectac-
ular gesture.
The lot Of the people of East
Berlin will not be improved
indeed it may have already
been somewhat impaired-by
Mr.. Kennedy's presence here.
The effects of this new di-
mension of presidential power
and influence cannot be con-
tanned by neat geographical
boundaries.
And neither, at this point,
can its effect for good or evil
be glibly assessed in terms of
broad American interests.

1861, which is still pending.
The voting provision sought by
the administration would has
ten relief by according voting
rights cases a preferential po-
sition on the court docket and
by providing temporary voting
referees to take applications
for registration.
A second major obstacle. he
said, Is the continued use of
literacy tests and similar per-
Torrance examinations as a de-
vice for discrimination. Mr..
Kennedy cited cases where Me-
gro college professors, school,
teachers, ministers and gradu-
ate students had been declared
illiterate while white applicants
in the same districts, with a
second or third grade education,
had been declared literate and
permitted to vote.
Mr.. Kennedy called for ex-
tension of the life. of the Civil
Rights Commission for another
four years, with the added duty
of serving as a national clear
inghouse to provide informa-
ton, advice and technical as
sistance to private and public
agencies.
Equal Employment
The Attorney General said
that under the leadership Of
the Vice President, the Com
mittee on Equal Employment
Opportunity established by the
President has opened large
areas of employment to Negroes
by preventing racial discrimi-
nation by Government con-
tractors and subcontractors."
The omnibus bill would es-
tablish the committee by law
as a permanent body.
Mr.. Kennedy pointed out that
numerous proposals have been
made In Congress in recent
years to withdraw Federal funds
from projects where discrimina-
tory practices occur. He said he
believes the principle that
programs be non discrim-
inatory is sound but that a
mandatory requirement to with
draw financial assistance is too
sweeping.
In every racially troubled
community, he said, there are
leading citizens of both races
who would like to confer with
each other to prevent tensions
and violence, but often, the
pressures on these leaders make
it difficult for them to approach
each other"
The proposed Community
Relations Service would help
troubled communities, conduct
its work without publicity and
keep the information it gets
confidential, he said.

ing even the carefully staged
turnouts for Hitler.
The President arrived in West
Berlin after a 110-mile flight
over East Germany. He prompt
ly paid tribute to West Berlin's
two million citizens for holding
aloft the beacon of freedom in
the Western world.
Then he made his visit to the
wall and mounted the special
platform at Brandenburg Gate.
Carefully he studied the high

He proceeded to Checkpoint

~NNN~~"W~-@N~NN
WEST BERLIN, June 26.-
With President Kennedy's ar.
rival today In Berlin. the
argument over the wisdom Of
this presidential visit promises
to reach its climax.
This is not because some may
consider it unnecessarily rash
for the President of the United
States to expose himself in q
city where passions run strong
some 100 miles inside the So
Wet zone Of Germany.
It is not so much a question
either Of provoking" the Rus
slams into some act of retalia-
ton.
The trip already has done
this, Of course. Soviet Premier
Khrushchev's impending visit
to East Germany is most GER
tainly one calculated Soviet
response.
Many believe that the new
death strip" behind the Ber-
lin wall which will certainly
make future escapes into West
Berlin more difficult is an
other direct result Of the
Kennedy visit.
Many Previous Visits
However, Mr.. Khrushchev has
been in Berlin many times be-
fore without dire consequences.
The death strip could have been
made at any time the East Ger
man authorities chose to make
1t.
And then there is the positive
side Of the coin.
Why shouldn't the President
go to Berlin in the course Of a
German visit2 AS the cultural
and spiritual center of Ger
many. it would be hard to avoid
Berlin, especially since the OBJ
ject Of the exercise goes beyond
talks with German leaders who
live in Bonn.
Assert Vests Presence
1t is high time, some argue,
that an American President
should assert the Western pres
ence in the city in as strong
and dramatic manner as pos
sible.
All this has now been done.
Berlin is q fine setting for a
major speech on international
affairs and draws additional
impact from the delirium which
it inevitably produces in the
immediate audience.
And then there is the ques-
ton of the morale Of the Ber-
liners themselves.
This is always q matter of
the utmost concern in the
West. Soon after the wall
went up, Vice President john
son was hustled over to keep
the Berliners from collapsing.
After that all sorts OF new
efforts were undertaken to
keep West Berlin from with
ering on the vine" and its citi-
zens from fleeing in panic.
BOOmingly Prosperous
The fact that Berlin at the
time, and ever since, has been
a completely secure and BOOM
ingly prosperous city has not
in the least diminished the
solicitude Of the Western
leaders.
In the end the argument
boils down to the question Of
what is the point Of presiden-
tial trips to begin with.
Is it really necessary for an
American to parade himself
around the world to be effec-
tive as a world leader? Is
the success or failure of Amer
! lean policy abroad to depend
