Score one for French President Chgrles De Gaulle.
Bin Charley in his uniform and military cap. did all
right without laying a glove on President Johnson.
In his first Jostle with Johnson the Frenchman
came through smelling like a rose, even though they
were miles apart in their encounter, while the Ameri-
• can President put the Latin Americans In a tizzy.
The two men had a short talk In Washington last
November after President John F. Kennedy's funeral,
ft wasn’t a formal talk That was supposed to come
this year. Cut then then* was some confusion about it.
Were they supposed to meet in Washington, or
where? Johnson wanted it there. De Gaulle wanted
It on an island in the Caribbean. So there was no
meeting. • -*- — — * - *
* But then the Frenchman irritated the American
government by recognizing Red China and on top of
* It derided to visit Mfxlro its part of his plan fop jtt*
ting good will and probably business for France in
Latin America.
Johnson arranged to make a major speech to
Latln-Ameriran ambassadors at the Organization of
American States on the very day. Monday, that De
Gaulle landed in Mexico, uniform and all.
If it went right. Johnson would get as much front-
page play in I-itin America as De Gaulle since his talk
was on how the t'nlted States and Its southern neigh-
bors could pull together better. But it didn’t go all
right. ^
While De Gaulle did all the nice things In Mex-
ico. Johnson didn't do them here, or at least the am’
bassadors didn't think so. One reporter, who knows
the ambassadors, said they were shocked and aston-
ished at Johnson’s speech.
This how it happened. For weeks a special OAS
committee had been trying to get Panama and the
I’nitcd States to settle their dispute over the Panama
Canal Zone.
After the riots at the zone last January, Panama
severed diplomatic relations with this country. Pana-
ma demanded a revision of the 1903 treaty which says
the United States can control the zone and the canal
indefinitely.
The night before the Johnson speech the OAS an-
nounced the two sides had agreed to sit down and dis-
cuss then negotiate their differences.
Latin-American diplomats said before the OAS
committee released its announcement it had sought
•nd got the approval of Thomas Mann, assistant sec-
retary of state for inter-American affairs.
U.S. officials now tell another story: that there
had been no agreement, that Mann hadn’t approved
the announcement, that he had said he would need
time to consider it. and that he consulted Johnson.
At any rate—this was Sunday night—a few hours
after theannouncement Republican senators denounc
ed it. They didn't thiojc |he administration should
agree to "negotiate" on the treaty. They said it look-
ed like surrender.
A few hours after the Republican!said what they
had on their minds, a so-called “high U.S. source”
made-a joke of the OAS announcement by saying
there had been no agreement.
The next day, Monday, Johnson went to the OAS
to make his speech. He had it all prepared in writ-
ing. It turned out not to be a very good speech. It
was hardly more than a collection of friendly and
pious statements.
Even so. if this had been all, while it might have
disappointed the ambassadors it wouldn’t have been *
enough to astonish them. Johnson proceeded to as-
tonish them by injecting something that wasn’t in the
prepared speech.
He made official what the "high source” had said
the night before. He said there had been no meeting
of the minds with Panama.” -* - -
Thus, in a talk which was supposed to be all
about cooperate?!! he injected the sore subject of Pan-
ama and in effect, told the OAS to its face that its
special committee's announcement was all wet.

Dear Sir:
With the passing of Dr. Jesse
Kirkpatrick, the Kayshore Con-
cert Association feels that it ha*
lost a wonderful friend. Those
on the board who have worked
with him these past three years
while he was president, feel a
personal loss because of this un-
selfish effort* and great enthus-
iasm for providing the neat art-
ist series for each season.
All of Baytown will mourn his
passing because he was an un-
tiring worker for hi* church and
clubs and did a great amount of
community service.
Even though Dr. Kirkpatrick
had been confined to (he hospit-
al sine* th* atari of th* present
mtmberahlp drive of the Bay-
shore Concert Association, hit
interest in the success of the
drive wa* malmaln«|l. to the
very Iasi. Ail the volunteer
workers are redoubling their ef-
loots to make his dream come
true that this drive would be
the most successful in ihe his-
tory of the association.
