Russia Assured
US To Continue
Peaceful Course

(OFlJ-fT resi-
dent Johnson has sent word to
Soviet Premier Nikita S.
KhruShchev that the United
States stands ready now, as in
the past, to make every honor
ably effort to solve East-West
problems which could spark nu-
clear war.
AT the same, time, the new
President has made strenuous
efforts during the past two days
to convince Allied representa-
tiveS that there will be no fal.
tering in American leadership
Of the non-C world.
Administration officials said
these two key elements could
be expected to emerge clearly
in the Presidents address today
to a joint session of Congress.
White House sources said
johnson told Soviet Deputy Pre-
mier Anastas |. Mikoyan dur
ing an hour = long conference
Tuesday that the United States
was ready to "go its part Of
the way" in the search for
measures to ease tension.
No Concessions
These sources emphasized,
however, that the new Presi-
dent was not willing to make
any new offers or concessions
with might imperil the Western
position.
Any hint Of this on Johnson's
part, it was pointed out, would
be political suicide at home in
addition to being disaStrously
damaging to Allied morale In
Europe and elsewhere.
Mikoyan, who remained here
after the funeral of President
Kennedy especially to sound out
the new Chief Executive, was
leaving today for Moscow to
carry Johnson'S views to
Khrushchev.
Johnson also conferred Tues
day with a number Of major
Allied representatives and
Staked out for himself within
the next few months a full
schedule of personal diplomacy.
He obviously hopes this will
strengthen Western unity and
thwart any Soviet efforts to
take advantage of any uncer-
tainty in the Western camp
which may follow Kennedy'S
death.
Among those Johnson talked
with Tuesday were British
Prime Minister Sir Alec Doug
West German Chan
cellor Ludwig Erhard and Presi-
dent Diosdado Macapagal of the
Philippines.
Supports Alliance
In a swiftly scheduled radio
television appearance, Johnson
also pledged his administration
to continue the Alliance for
program of aid for
Latin America as a living me-
mortal to Kennedy.
He told a group of diplomats
from troubled South America,
in the capital for the Kennedy
funeral, that the u. S. govern
ment would carry on the job"
He spoke from the same White
House room in which his pred
ecessor announced creation of
the alliance program nearly
three years ago.
johnson promised early con-
situations with the British and
West German leaders. Officials
said these would come shortly
after the first of the year. He
also appeared to have commit
ted himself to a relatively early
visit to West Berlin and other
parts Of Allied Europe to en-
phaSize continued U. S. determ-
to defend that area

Wells than by any other scien-
tlst. Darwin also paid tribute
to Langdon Chevis, a South
Carolina planter. for help he
had given Darwin in formulat-
ing his theory of the origin of

Mrs. SlmkinS went on to show
how johnson used the colleges
Of the Old South as one illus
tratlon of the peoples interest
in science. Modern research
shows that there was consider
able study OF the natur |
sciences below the Mason Dixon
line. She also pointed out that
in his chapter on Southern In
ventionS johnson tells of many
and varied inventions and scien-
tlfic discoveries by Southern gen
tlemen. such as James RumSey,
OF Virginia, who invented a saw
mill and later. in 1887, invented
the steamboat. This was 20
years before Fultons invention.
In December of 1887 amid the
cheers of excited onlookers.

scholar, was wrong. Mr.. John

Institute of Research in the So

OF Virginia. 1t was published in
1886 by D. Appleton and Cen
tury Co.
Mrs. SimkinS continued her
review of Johnson book and
pointed out to her listeners that
although the book is not d de-
tailed history of the scientific
life Of the Old South, it is a
careful study OF the attitude of
the planters, politicians, profess
Slonal men of the Cotton King
dom, and Of their wives a n d
daughters. toward the natural
sciences johnson is much too
restrained and accurate a schol-
ar to claim that the Old South
was more scientific than any
other part Of our nation or the
world. He simply proves that
people of the Cotton Kingdom
We're as keenly Interested in
science as were the inhabitants
OF o / h e + parts of the world
Early in his book he tells of
Samuel Elliot Morrison writing
in his oxford History of the

Johnson's chapter on Among

count of the lectures, museums,
and scientific societies formed
by laymen. In it he also dis
cusses the contributions of
Washington, Byrd, Ruffin. Tay-
lor, jefferson, to mention a few.
He also tells about the Georgia
planter, Gidenon Lincecum, who
made great contribution to
the world of natural science in
his study of insect life, and also
the flora Of Texas. johnson did
not neglect the contribution Of
Sweet Southern Girls" to the
development of an interest in
education and in science. for he
devoted an entire chapter to

NEW YORK-The World Jewish
Congress has completed a statisti-
cal survey of Jews all over the
world, finding that there are 12,-
$4,000 Jews living in 122 lands.
The survey, by the WIGS Insti-
tute of Jewish Affairs, reports that
10 million Jews live in three coun-
tries: 5,500,000 in the United
States; 100000 in Israel, and
about 100000 in the Soviet Union
according to figures available fol-
lowing the 1859 Russian census.
With the influx of Jews from
North Africa, France has become
the fourth largest Jewish commun-
ity in the world with a population
of 100000 Jews. Next are Argen-
tina and Britain, $50, 900 each; Can
ada, 250,000; Rumania, 10000;
Brazil 100000; Morocco, 125, 900;
and the Union of South Africa,
10000.
The IL largest communities in
which 12,175,OO Jews live, COM
prise 93.7 per cent of the world
Jewish population. There are COM
munities of 10000 to 100000 in IA
lands, the largest being Iran, about
