Kennedy Sandwiched Between Nik’s
Bluster and Barry’s Criticism Campaign
By JAMES MARLOW
Associated Press News Analyst
WASHINGTON (A>>—It’s enough
to make President Kennedy un
comfortable. He wants re-election
in 1964. His best campaign theme
would be peace and prosperity.
And now Premier Khrushchev,
who can grunt and growl like a
mechanical bear, is performing
again. Twice in less than a month’s
time the Soviets have blockaded
American convoys in East Ger
many.
This could be merely a tem
porary unpleasantness, like sneez
ing in the soup. There’s no way
of knowing that. It could also be
the signal of worse to come, with
Khrushchev turning 1964 into a
year of crisis.
If that happens Kennedy wi'l
feel like the center-piece in a
sandwich:

On one side Khrushchev testing
American will and courage with
his defiances; on the other, Sen.
Barry Ooldwater, campaigning for
the Presidential nomination with
slogans of stiff-arm-the-Russians.
Last fall the State Department,
like a man who had just escaped
from a furnace alive, developed a
kind of euphoria when Khrushchev
avoided a showdown on Cuba by
pulling his missiles out.
It began talking of winds of
change sweeping the world, the
State Department’s way of saying
happy days are here again, or
hoping they were.
The world did quiet down a bit
gradually although any agreement
on that sore and ancient subject
—a nuclear test ban — seemed not
only far off but impossible.
Yet, both sides began inching
1heir way toward it. What fol
lowed seemed to indicate that
Khrushchev finally had been in
duced to talk reasonably.
Things looked more comfortable
June 20 when the “hot line” be
tween Moscow and Washington
was opened to speed communica
tions between the two nerve cen
ters in an emergency.
And on July 25 the United
States, Russia and Britain in Mos
cow initialed a limited nuclear
test ban agreement.
It ran into a storm here. The
agreement meant nothing unless
the Senate approved it in the form
of a treaty. And for quite a while
there seemed some chance it
wouldn’t. It finally did on Sept.
24.
Khrushchev — instead of play
ing bear during that whole time be
tween July 25 and Sept. 24 —
played mouse. He didn’t do or say
anything to give Senate opponents
an additional talking point that
might have defeated the treaty.
All this might have been just
Khrushchev’s reminder to the East
not to suppose he was getting soft
because he made a few agreements.
But it could be his way of giving
Americans a foretaste of worse in
store.

Ike Recollects He
Wanted Only One
W hile House Term
WASHINGTON W — Former
President Eisenhower had a strong
desire to serve only one term
when he was elected in 1952. And
th one-term idea is one of the
strong themes to emerge from
th Plisenhower Presidential me
moirs.
This is the view of Marvin Ar
rowsmith, the Associated Press
newsman who covered Eisenhower
from the time of his nomination
through eight years in the White
House.
The first volume of the book —
called 'Mandate for Change” —
has just been published.
The former President relates
that he wanted to declare in his
inaugural address that he would
serve only one term. He aban
doned the idea after being told
such a statement at that point
would be a political blunder.
But Eisenhower reports that
this did not change his mind about
retiring after four years. He says
that, after months in office, he
wrote to his brother Milton:
"1 ever for a second time I
should show any signs of yielding
to persuasion, please call in a psy
chiatrist — or even the sheriff —
I feel there can be no showing
made that my ‘duty’ extends be
yond a one-time performance.”
But after much soul-searching—
and despite a heart attack — Eis
enhower finally decided to seek a
second term. And he’s now at work
on a second volume of memoirs,
dealing with that term.
Arrowsmith describes the first
volume as an essentially prideful
recital of how the Eisenhower Ad
ministration took the reins from
the Democrats after 20 years in of
fice and of how the new admin
istration struggled with the prob
lems of war and peace.

VVYV-I Vet Re-enlists
ATLANTA, Ga. W — In a day
when most fellows are delighted
to be by-passed by the Army, Ser
geant Howard Davis has been
sweating out his bid for reenlist
ment at Fort McPherson in Geor
gia. And for good reason.
Sgt. Davis is 66 years old and a
veteran of two world wars. But
Friday he got the good news. His
enlistment for four more years
has been approved. Officers say
his World War I record played a
direct part.
Davis has several citations signed
by General Pershing for bravery
under fire during the Argonne of
fensive in 1918. when he was 21.
Asked why he wanted to re-enlist
at his age, Davis laughed and said:
“Every time the troops go by, I
get goose pimples.”
