Editorial—
Khrushchev In Berlin
Nikita Khrushchev’s visit to Bast Berlin was proof-
11 more were needed — that the visit of the United States
President to West Berlin was an inspiring event for Ger-
mans in all parts of what once was a united country.
The brutal propaganda of the Russians for the past
lecade has been toned to convince East Germans and
Bast Berliners that there Is no ehance that their coun-
try will ever again be united.
But President John F. Kennedy told Berliners not
to despair, that the past eighteen years had brought
many profound changes and that Germany should one
day he reunited and families and friends and homes re-
conciled. This stirred hope anew In hearts which had
grown faint.
And despite the hanging of curtains at checkpoint
gates and other measures of that kind, East Berliners
heard about President Kennedy’s words and the enthu-
siasm of his visit permeated the wall and spread into
East Berlin. Khrushchev immediately headed for East
Berlin to counter the effect of the Kennedy visit.
It was an admission that East Berliners needed a
shot in the arm, that they were susceptible to words
•bout freedom and Justice and the right of self-deter-
mination. It was a sure sign that eighteen years of Sov-
iet oppression has not broken the spirit and the hope
of the Qermans who are now cut off from the greater
part of their homeland.

ELEPHANTS' GRAVE YARD?
Dirksen's Backbone
When the Minority Leader of the United States Sen-
ate, Everett Dlrksen, announced recently he would not
go along with a hastily concocted presidential and con-
gressional proposal to force private business men to In-
tegrate their businesses, the Illinois Republican was sub-
jected to considerable abuse.
An analysis of the Senator’s position shows him on
sound constitutional ground. In the heat of tlr* present
racial crisis, emotion can lead even the best men to de-
viate from constitutional process. It requires a cool head
and a sturdy fortitude to buck such an emotional tide.
And It was probably the conscientious opposition of
Dlrksen and a few other Republican Senators that pre-
vented this proposal (one of five submitted to Congress)
from being quickly steam-rollered through the U.S. Sen-
ate.
It was proposed to tell everyone conducting a busi-
ness of a certain size that If he or she bought goods In
other states and engaged in interstate trade as a means
of carrying on his business, he would be subject to fed-
eral instruction In the methods of running his private
■‘r;«iness.
Thus the great no-tariff rule between states was to
.-a as a lever to force businesses to conduct their
... c s affairs according to the dictates of a federal
i .Ltracy. And this would have been only the first of
• dictations from Washington.

)
The latest public opinion polls show Senator Barry
Goiawater of Arizona still leading prospective Republi-
can candidates for the Republican presidential nomi-
nation.
The Arizona Senator's chances are now better than
they have ever been. What he has lacked in the past
has been popular support. He has long been a favorite
of the party regulars. Now he has support from both
quarters. He will be hard to stop If he decides to per-
sonally go all-out for the party nomination In 1964.

WASHINGTON - Sen Jos-

for the passage of a fair em-
ployment practice* bill:
"To be always at the end of
the hiring line; always the first
to get the pink slip; always the
sweeper or washroom attend-
ant and never the machine op-
erator or sales manager — This
is the shameful role in which
we have cast the 10 per cent of
our population whose skin is
not white.”
WHAT HAS HAPPENED
•What you are trying to tell me
la quite, quite impossible,” said Ad-
miral Sherwood of the Royal Navy
to Commander Tony Gardner of
-ounterespljnage. "I've known Cap-
lain Howard for over twenty years.
His war career In submarines was
quite outstanding. It would be dif-
ficult to Imagine anyone less likely
to be your traitor."
Gardner bad found It difficult to
believe too. Bill Howard being one
of his oldest friends But details of
s top-secret antisubmarine project
have leaked to Moscow, and Gardner
suspects the leak Is Howard. Re-

LOS ANGELES — Superior
Judge Burnett Wolfson, when
told that a real estate salesfhan
wants to change his name to
Peter Lorre because so many
people have told him he looks
like actor Peter Lorn?:
"I don’t question this man’s
right to change his name. But
why out of 111 million names
did he choose this one? Why
does a man look for trouble?”
HARRISON, N. J. - Patrol-
man Dennis Dacey, describing
the condition of passengers on
a commuter train shortly after
it rammed a switch engine:
"They didn't know what they
were doing. They were in shock.
and County of DeWitt Everyone seemed to have bash-
“W1 I ed to heads.”
CHAPTER 3
COR ONCE there were plenty
1 taxis, and Captain Howard
got one almost immediately. He
handed his suitcases to the driv-
er, said, "United Services Club,
please,” and got in.
Outside Waterloo station the
taxi turned left along York
Road, threaded its way past St.
Thomas's Hospital and crossed
the river by Westminster
Bridge. Big Ben was striking
the threc-quWter hour as they
came to a halt at the traffic
lights before turning right onto
the Embankment Howard
looked back at the following
traffic.
Immediately behind were two
or three taxis, a bus and other
miscellaneous vehicles. It all
looked Innocent enough. The
driver of the nearest taxi caught
hls eye, but only because the
man happened to be wearing
dark glasses.
The traffic moved on, and
they turned east along the Em-
bankment past Scotland Yard.
Surrounded by the roar and
bustle of London, Howard be-
gan to feel more at his ease.
They turned first left and
then right again into Whitehall.
Opposite the Whitehall theater,
they were again held up by the
lights. Howard, glancing back
through the rear window, found
the same taxi close behind him.
The driver with the dark glasses
was learning back and talking
to hls passenger.
It was ridiculous, of course—
hundreds of taxis every hour
must use this same route from
Westminster Bridge to Trafal
gar Square—but Howard sud-
denly had a hunch that he was.
after all, being followed.
He decided to put hls hunch
to the test.
As the lights changed and
the traffic surged forward into
Trafalgar Square he tapped on
the driver’s window. 'Tm sorry,”
he said, "I'll have to go back to
Waterloo. 1 seem to have left
ray glasses in the train."
“O.K., sir.” Instead of con-
tinuing left into Cockapur
Street as he had intended, the
driver turned up toward the
National Gallery. To get back
into Whitehall he had to go
Through the rear window
Howard saw the other taxi fol-
lowing on their heela But atin
that didn’t mean anything; this
was a perfectly legitimate route
for Charing Cross Road or the
Strand.
Opposite the National Gallery
Howard rapped again on the
window. "As you were! I’ve
found them in another pocket
So sorry!”
“I don't mind, sir," grinned
the driver. “I’m quite happy eo
long as you’ll pay the fare.”
Soon they were heading west
again Into Cockapur Street The
same taxi was still close behind
them, and Howard was now
thoroughly alarmed. It could
mean only one thing—Tony
Gardner had tumbled onto the
truth, and the hunt was on.
He must make an immediate
and drastic change of plan.
Somehow he had to shake off
this immediate pursuer. It
would be foolish to go to the
United Services Club now—It
would be stiff with fellows he
knew. Yet it was essential to
get rid of hls luggage—he
couldn’t cart It about with him
all afternoon. No good dropping
it in at the club or a railway
cloakroom; he would only be
setting a trap for himself when
he went to pick it up again. He
wondered what a professional
spy would have done In the cir-
cumstances. The most Important
thing was to keep calm and
think quickly.
"Another change of plan," he
called to the driver. "Don’t go
the United Services. Take
me to Brown’s Hotel Instead.”
Anything you say, air."
• • •
THE TAXI continued along
* and was brought to a halt
by the traffic lights by the side
door of the Ritz.
“What’s on the dock ?" asked
Howard.
“Four and ninepence so far,
sir."
"Well, look, here’s ten bob.
I’m late for my lunch appoint-
ment, and I'm going to hop out
here. Could you take my bags
on to Brown’s Hotel and tell
them to hold them for me? I
haven’t booked, but toll them
I’ll contact them early this af-
ternoon. Keep the change.”
‘Thank you, air. What name
shall I say?”
‘Tell them ... Mr. Hitch-
cock.”
Mr. Hitchcock. O.K., air, you
leave it to me. Better hop out
now, the lights are changing.”
As the traffic began moving
forward into Piccadilly, Howard
jumped out of the taxi, skipped
dangerously between two cars,
and gained the pavement on the
Rltz corner. He became aware
of an irritated hooting of car
horns behind him, and out of
the corner of hls eye he caught
round Trafalgar Square.
From the novel published by Harper A Row, lac. by
by Btvard Touiiq, Distributed *
a vapid glimpse or tne pursuing
taxi stationary In the middle of
the traffic.
The driver with the dark
glasses was leaning acrona the
driving neat, somewhat aston-
ished, as his fare, man hi a dark
suit, got out, slammed the door
and hurriedly thrust a fistful of
silver into his hand.
For a moment Howard hesi-
tated, combing his mustache
with his forefinger, wondering
whether to slip quickly into the
bar of the Ritz or eroes over
to the other side of Piccadilly.
He walked briskly along the
shadowed pavement under the
colonnade, scarcely able to re-
sist the temptation to look be-
hind him.
Beyond knowing that his pur-
suer was wearing a dark suit
he still had no idea what he
looked like, and he frit this put
him at a disadvantage. On the
other hand, it appeared that he
had only one pursuer to contend
with—for the moment—and he
had at any rate drawn the scent
away from his luggage.
He decided against the Ritz
and caught an east bound Num-
ber 14 bus.
He went up to the top deck
and eat In one of the rear seats.
No one followed hfan up the
stairs, but It waa possible of
course that his pursuer was
riding inside, on the lower deck.
As the bus drove past Burling-
ton House toward Piccadilly Cir
cue, Howard had time to review
the situation.
The first and most important
thing he had to do was to ring
the Paddington number and get
in touch with the horrible little
man whose name he did not
know but whom he had private-
nicknamed "Ratface.” He
must arrange a meeting and
warn him of the way things
were going.
He must also telephone
Brown’s Hotel about a foom for
the night. Sometime during the
next couple of days, he sup-
posed. he would have to drop a
line of explanation to poor Mar-
orle. . . . Then his appearance
was altogether too conspicuous:
for one thing, his gray-green
tweeds were not quite the thing
for a man about the West End.
Then . . .
At the Circus he got off the
bus and dived into the Under-
ground. There were a lot of
people milling back and forth,
and there seemed a good chance
of losing his pursuer. But when
he re-emerged into daylight on
the south side of Piccadilly and
stopped to buy an evening pa-
per from the newsvendor on the
corner, a quick sideways glance
showed him that Mr. Fisk had
already reached the top of the
subway stairs, less than five
yards behind him.

in having the strike postponed until the
end of July may actually prove out a liability,
for implicit in the postponement was a presi-
dential decision to send legislation to Congress
to deal with the transportation crisis.
The President’s unwillingness to ask Con-
gress to act in the situation la completely
understandable. He doesn’t want to open a
Pandora’s box of labor legislation proposals
which is almost certain to happen ones the
issue formally comes before Congress. How-
ever, he has solved nothing by obtaining a
month’s delay in the crisis.
In the first place, a month from now, Con-
gress is almost certain to ha- in n more anti-
administration mood than it la now. By that
time, all at the opposing party-splitting forces
surrounding the civil rights controversy will
he in full bloom.
Congress is more likely at that time to take a dim viewqf any
White House effort to localise the labor legislation to the rail-
road situation than it is now. The President could well find him-
self in n position where ho may have to trade off aome of his
labor legislation desires in order to get aome of his anti-segrega-
tion proposals enacted, or vita vena.
This kind at bores-trading already la looming Insofar an the
tax-cut, tax-reform bin is concerned. And this measure eeuld
well become involved hi the same kind at legislative maneuver-
ing with regard to the mil dispute.
In other words, every major demand Kennedy makes on Con-
gress from hare on out simply complicates his efforts to obtain
passage of other major bills now before the legislators. * ~

• GOOBERS—AND RELIEF—Here’s the kind of difficulty the
government cap get into as it tries to cops with surplus agricul-
tural products.
Peanuts are in surplus supply. One way to work off the sur-
plus Is to encourage the use of peanut butter. One way to en-
courage the use of peanut butter is to put it on the Hat of prod-
ucts for free distribution to persona on the relief rolls.
The Agriculture Department took this step with peanut butter
and promptly ran Into mum vigorous protests from peanut but-
ter manufacturers. They claimed that people on relief rolls had
so much peanut butter available that they'd never
eat the stuff again, ones they got off relief, and
that this waa huffing the long-range prospects
for their eommsrcial market.
This protest got w aoriona that the depart-
ment made n study of the situation. It shoes
Baltimore, where peanut butter has been an the free distribution
Hat The department found the average par capita consumption
of peanut butter there rose from Jtt to J89 pounds per month
after the spread was put on the free UsL
In effect, the Agriculture Department said to ths peanut butt?
manufacturers: “Nuts to you!”
