There may be better ways of opening that door, but Nehru is right in insisting that every effort, must be made to resume useful talks the moment they become possible. Youth Fooled? American youth is being wooed by the Communists. J. Edgar Hoover of the FBI, reports: "In 1959, the Communist Party, U.S.A. launched a major campaign with youth as its target The purpose was to devise a program to attract young blood teenagers, students, and working youth to the ranks of the Party.
The Party began operating what amounted to a regular lecture bureau, with Party spokesmen seizing every opportunity to project their views on campuses across the country. "Further illustrating the tremendous drive the Party is making to infiltrate student groups is the agenda for a youth conference the Party held in Chicago, June 11-12, 1960. The major points on the agenda for the two-day conference were (1) 'mass developments on the campus' and (2) 'left-student developments'. Discussed in relation to these points were ways and means by which young Communists could exploit such controversial issues on campuses as civil rights, academic freedom, and other so-called peace issues." The Communist threat from without must not blind us to the Communist threat from within, which, if successful, would wipe out the very things Communism professes to promote, namely, civil rights, academic freedom and peace issues. tional Development Administration are pouring out billions of their resources Although the funds are destined for faraway lands India, Pakistan, Africa, Latin America, etc.
if is estimated that at least 40 per cent of the money is spent in this country for machinery and materials. The Federal Housing Administration has made it easier and cheaper for the construction of homes, a basic activity that radiates its benefits throughout the whole economic system. This mobilization of economic weapons is reminiscent of Calvin Coolidge's 1928 strategy, one year before the 1929 crash. He was determined "not to have a depression on my time" and he didn't but he left an unwanted legacy to Herbert Hoover. By RAY TUCKER In his successful battling against i i a Khrushchev at the United Nations and in less spectacular stratagems on the economic front.
President Eisenhowefr is campaigning as actively and vigorously for the Nixon Lodge ticket as if he were hitting the political trail a la Truman. The outgoing Chief Executive is determined to do what he can to down beyond Democratic challenge the Republicans' I o-gan of "Peace and Prosperity." They believe it to be a winning battle cry. The 70 0 vote in the United Nations for the American position in the Congo crisis is regarded as a distinct gain for the Administration and the GOP generally. So were the President's friendly conferences with such world statesmen as Nehru, Tito and Nasser. Both Eisenhower gestures may wipe out bitter memories of the U-2 incident and the Summit crack bp.
BY CONTRAST with Eisenhower's calnvand dignified UN. address, such troublemakers as Khrushchev and Fidel Castro lost caste and prestige on the world stage. Indeed, it almost seems as if the two dictators had set out deliberately to make votes for the V.P. and our former Ambassador to the U.N. Democratic spokesmen profess to believe that any favorabie impression born of the New York drama or tragicomedy will wear off before November 8.
But they admit that it has been a political harvest for the opposition as of today. It is considered especially significant because, as the Nixon Kennedy television debate emphasized, a key issue appears to be: Which party or candidates can make America and its allies so strong, militarily and economically, that the West is assured of winning a "cold or "hot" war with Russia. ON THE DOMESTIC front, various government agencies are quietly trying to strengthen a slightly sagging economy. They have many unobtrusive ways of preventing a politically dangerous decline, an asset which the cut-of power Democrats do not possess. Every Administration -sorts to this kind of politico-fin-nancial "legerdemain" in election years.
The Federal Reserve has embarked on an "easy money" policy by loosening controls over credit and lowering the rediscount rate. The banks have surpluses of reserve for big and Utile borrowers. The "Fed's" action is also a notice that it does not fear serious The Pentagon is handing out defense contracts planes, mis- ing their loss as a miser fears loss of coin. Here are excerpts from a recent letter that illustrate what I mean better than anything I can write: "My doctor advised an electrocardiogram. After reading the results of my cardiograph, he said my heart tracings were fine." Follows then a long recital of a list of symptoms relating to left arm, chest, abdomen, lungs, hands, top of head and breast, concluding with the query "Could 1 have a heart malady that wouldn't show up in an electrocardiograph?" Maybe I shouldn't ask.
But just where do you stand on the Eleventh Commandment? For a copy of Dr. Hyman's leaflet "Your Heart: angina pectoris," send 10 cents to Dr. Hyman, care of The Wausau Daily Record-Herald, Box 489, Dept. Radio City Station, New York 19, N.Y. (Oshkosh Daily Northwestern) No matter how conscientious our representatives in Congress may be, it is obvious they don't have a chance to read carefully all the hundreds of bills introduced.
And when adjournment time nears and the pressure increases, the situation becomes worse. The result is that measures sometimes win approval through subterfuge. Here is a prime example: During the hectic August ses sion, both houses in one day pass ed a bill allowing a committe more time to prepare a repon on observance of the 175th anni versary of the Constitution. Th title was read in the House and the bill passed. Little noticed was the fact that the bill contained an amendment authorizing lend ing of a half billion dollars to build college housing.
Rep. Clarence Cannon, when hi caught on, termed it a "classi example" of legislation by sub terfuge. President Eisenhower re cently signed the bill with "re luctance." So Congress, stifling a yawn, disposed without discussion of a sum about equal to a year'i spending of the entire population of New Hampshire. But what's money? Nash's Position (Marinette Eagle Star) Appearing on a panel at Milwaukee, Lieut. Gov.
Philleo Nash restated his opposition to a sales tax and said that neither he nor Governor Nelson could be bound by a report of the governor's tax advisory committee if it recommended a sales tax. What Nash thinks about the sales tax is immaterial. The lieutenant governor is a mere fi-gurehead except that he presides over the Senate and could break a tie vote. In stressing opposition to a sales tax he merely exaggerates his importance in state government Macmillan's Plan British Prime Minister Macmillan's disarmament proposal is both realistic and optimistic. It recognizes that arms reduction is essentially a political matter which must, however, be based on sound technical grounds.
It offers reasonable hope of breaking down the impasse between East and West over a system of controls. This is not to say that there is much chance of the Soviet Union's quickly agreeing to take a serious, non-obstructive part in disarmament negotiations. That is too much to hope for. But there appears to be a fair chance that the logic and practicability of Macmillan's proposal will penetrate the Kremlin's thick skin of opposition to any plan originating in ths West. The main reason for hope on this score is that Khrushchev and his colleagues understand, for all their obstructionism, the urgent necessity of at least slowing down the arms race befpre the world explodes.
The heart of Macmillan's plan is that the General Assembly would set up a board of technical experts to work out the practical means scientific, military and administrative of curbing arms under a carefully safeguarded control system. Only when this had been done would government leaders get together to work out actual arms reduction steps related to this system of control. The British leader made clear his recognition that the Russians balk at any hint of inspection and control without substantive disarmament. "This practical procedure," he said, "is not in any sense a proposal to institute control without disarmament." Despite Khrushchev's boorish display while Macmillan spoke, there is reason to hope that Moscow will agree to try the new approach. Nehru's Good Sense Prime Minister Nehru of India laid it on the line when he addressed the United Nations General Assembly on Oct.
3. "We are dealing with the future of humanity," he told the delegates, warning them that unless they were able to make constructive progress in the United Nations the world would be in grave danger of drifting "in a direction from which it will be difficult to turn back." Nehru spoke firmly, calmly and to the point on many problems disarmament, establishment of orderly self-government in The Congo, maintenance of a strong United Nations executive arm, freedom for Algerians, admission of China and Mongolia to the U.N., and so forth. He was temperate and polite, but he pulled no punches. Most of all Nehru stressed two things. He emphasized repeatedly that, in his opinion, disarmament is "far the most urgent and important subject before the United Nations." Unless something constructive is done about disarmament, he strongly implied, the dreadful time will come when nothing else will matter.
The second major item on Nehru's agenda was a fresh start, with the United States and the Soviet Union necessarily taking the lead because of their commanding positions, toward establishing fruitful negotiation of various cold war problems. Nehru characterized the neutrals' resolution asking President Eisenhower and Premier Khrushchev to meet as an effort to "open the Under the Capitol Dome Russian Manners (Appleton Post Crescent) The Russians have begun to teach good manners as a state function and from what we hear they can use such teaching, particularly Mr. Khrushchev himself. It Ls interesting to note that the Russians have accepted the American word "etiquette" to describe what they teach. They have picked this word up from American books on etiquette and are using it without modification.
Amy Vanderbilt, writing in Coronet Magazine, says that the Russian newspaper Pravda regularly publishes etiquette information such as "After a meal it is essential to pick your teeth with a toothpick not a pin or a needle. Bathe once a week. Wash your feet before you go to bed." We are not against newspaper columns on ttiquette but we think the Russian one would be rrvch more effective if Khrushchev would discontinue some of his vulgarity and thus set an example for the other Russian people.

Written for Newspaper Enterprise Assn. In an earlier column, I referred to the great and small of our contemporaries whose lives honor the late Gene Fowler's suggested Eleventh Commandment, "Thou Shalt Not Unhappily not all of us have the greatness of spirit or the self-effacing consideration for our loved ones to react to our afflictions in accordance with the teachings of the Eleventh Commandment. On the off chance that you may, at times, occupy a temporary place in the ranks of the violators, let me give you some examples of everyday transgressions: As if by plan, I have just been interrupted to speak to an official of the state public assistance program who phoned to inquire about a day worker we employed to help with our gardening and lawn care. I am told he attributes his failure to come to work to a "stomach ulcer." Here is an instance of violation of the Eleventh Commandment four purposes of exploiting a legitimate 1 fa agency. On the smaller domestic scene, there's the violator who exploits the family because of a "sick headache," a "lame back," "high or low blood pressure," an impending or actual "monthly sickness," a "bad night," a "heart murmur" or an "a 1 1 to whatever had to be handled in the course of a domestic chore.
Usually these violators exhibit a great affection toward their affliction, whatever its nature. For they speak of it in possessive terms and in an endearing manner. Like "my" headache or "My" pressure, using the tones one usually employs with reference to a child or physical treasure. Then, for present purposes, there's the steadfast complainer who clings tenaciously to symptoms or to his version of the meaning those symptoms, fear- Taxing Our Cottagers 'Green Bay Press Gazette) In scores of rural towns of northern and central Wisconsin, the aggregate worth of the non-resident vacationer's cottage is an invaluable contribution to the local government tqx base and represents a sizeable relief of resident property taxes that would otherwise be levied. At the same time the collective expenditure equivalent of the 1.200.000 persons who spend some time in privately owned summer cottages around Wisconsin is a critical contribution to the economic stability of literally hundreds of villages and smaller cities.
The Wisconsin tax planners therefore, ought to take a careful second look at the study recently published by the School of Commerce of the University of Wisconsin which lists the things most disliked about Wisconsin by these temporary residents of a thousand localities. By far and away the most common complain is "high taxes." The Wisconsin resident who owns a vacation cottage mentioned taxes twice as frequently as any other gripe in the University poll. Among non-residents the tax complaint was four times as numerous as any other. Remembering some of the other complaints that are common, including mosquitos, poor fishing, and bad weather, to name those we hear about from our cottager friends, this ought to be a warning signal to the Governor and the legislature. The cries about property taxation in Wisconsin politics have become virtually a litany, and, we fear, have perhaps lost some of their effect out of sheer repetitive- ness.
The Governor's so-called "blue ribbon" study commission on tax revision has already recommended the elimination of the personal property tax as perhaps the most frequent complaint among businessmen about Wisconsin tax policy, and the most inequitable form of business taxation when state economic competition is considered. In any Wisconsin city the mayor or a representative alderman can give you an earful about his constituents' reactions to residential property taxation. The evidence for tax reform is approaching a crescendo. The only real question remaining is the method of revision that will be employed. It strikes us that however ingenious, however timid, however reluctant, the next governor and the next legislature next year may be, they will find it hard to postpone action again.

Hal Boyle's Notebook Working Way Through College Not Always Best LOOKING INTO THE PAST From Record-Herald Files Northern Legislators Just Making Hay In Hollywood Movie Does Very Good Job With FDR Story By BOB THOMAS AP Movie-TV Writer HOLLYWOOD (AP) Strong words about film content come from Martin Quigley editor of Motion Picture Herald. In an editorial titled "Sick Pictures Equal Sick Industry," the long-time industry observer cited concern at the recent theater owners convention over Hollywood's preoccupation with the sordid and the sexy.
"Too many 'sick' pictures will have one inevitable result a dead industry," said Quigley. He added that the self-censoring production code is sick "because it has been punched full of holes" and so is the administration of it because "there is no encouragement in high places to do more than keep people out of jail for exhibitions that violate obscenity laws." Kim Novak is still playing it coy about a forthcoming marriage to Richard Quine. He says yes. She says who knows? Friends expect it will happen, but Kim takes a long time to make up her mind. "Sunrise at Campobello" makes an even finer film than it did a play, since the camera allows some of the sweep and scope of the country during the early years of Franklin D.
Roosevelt's invalidism. It is a tasteful and only slightly partisan account of FDR's conquest of polio, reverently done, with high points of emotion. Ralph Bellamy's FDR is one of the superb characterizations of the decade, and Hume Cronyn's Louis Howe is also Oscar bait. A big surprise is Greer Garson as Mrs. Roosevelt.
It is a warm, affecting performance though sometimes the. high-pitched voice and facial transformations were disconcerting. Only one element seemed out of pitch. That is the portrayal of the President's mother as the heavy. No doubt Dore Schary found grounds in history, but it seems a little rough on the old lady.
own way through college. It did me a world of good." But that experience was not an unalloyed joy. If they will look back on those years with the eyes of truth, they will remember the bitter moments, too. They will realize college life had a lot of possibilities they missed at the time and perhaps still miss. They gained much, but they lost a lot also.
The advantage of not having to work your way through college is simply this: You are able to take better advantage of what a college has to offer learning. You can prepare yourself better for what you want to be. No one, no matter how mentally exceptional, can work his way through college and learn as much as he could if he had that same time free to devote to his studies. At its best college is a full-time job in itself, and it gets to be more of a full-time job every year as the standards rise, Another advantage of not working your way through college is you have more leisure to brood upon the great mysteries of life and to enjoy small pleasures and these things are part of college, too. I had to work most of my own way through college and feel the resulting benefits are greatly overrated.
Now and then I still wish I had spent less time as a sophom*ore building up my character and instead had learned to play the ukelele. Look what it did for Arthur Godfrey. By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK (AP) Should a boy work his way through college? Many people still cling to the idea that this is a fine way for a young man to build character, which it may be. But it is hardly the best way for him to get the best possible education. It would be better if he formed his character earlier perhaps by working his way through kindergarten, where the strains of learning do not yet put so much wear and tear upon his mental apparatus.
Recently in an article on the opening of the school year I suggested it is far preferable for a parent to take out a mortgage on the family home to finance a son's education rather than let him try to work his own way unaided through college. This view presupposed, of course, that ike son had some real and. hone.st interest in getting a higher education. No one would advocate putting the family homestead in hock merely to keep some worthless young bum solv-ent with his social fraternity and the college library. But several readers wrote in to express the firm belief that I was speaking with a size 74 voice through a size 6' hat, the implication being I didn't know what 1 was talking about.

It may be doubted that the three members of the legislative citizens reapportionment advisory commission actually expect that their proposal for reconsideration of the area representative principle in legislative districting will be taken very seriously. There is ample reason to believe, on the contrary, that they are making hay in their own under populated districts of northern Wisconsin during this campaign season, and that their proposal has no more noble conception or purpose. THE ISSUE of area vs.
population districting is strictly academic, as far as this advisory commission is concerned. It was Instructed to try to work out a reapportionment of legislative" districts under the terms of the present constitution, which provides for the consideration of the population factor only. Moreover, the issue is politically academic. The reapportionment fight was resolved for all time when the "areacrats" lost the last round, in the last reapportionment act. The rural sections then gave votes to the urban counties that can never be recovered.
WHATEVER LOCAL political popularity Sen. Krueger of Merrill and Assemblyman Hutnik of Sawyer County and Ralph Theiler of Tomahawk may gain through their abortive scheme, there may well be some compromising of other Repubican politicians resulting. This trio represents the Republican party in the upper part of Wisconsin. But the Republican party of the state as a whole is not committed to the area principle in districting. The best that the northerners could get from the most recent Republican platform, for example, was some slightly equivocal language.
No Republican candidate for the legislature anywhere in eastern Wis- consin would stand upon the area idea, and the Republican statutory platform convention here next week almost surely won't. These men are trying to rewrite history, to modify or repeal the basic political fact of the last couple of decades the steatry movement of people into the southern and industrial communities of the state. They are doomed, and their fretful cries are merely the required responses of local politicians to the resentments of their own constituencies. SEX. KRl'KGER'S public statement last week made the point that the steady erosion of legislative members in the north will ultimately make the Senate districts of the upper third of Wisconsin unwiedly in geographical size.
There are now only four senators in that broad swatch of territory. Soon there may be only two. It is conceivable that one day there will be only one. and that he will have a constituency in geographical terms that is larger than most of the congressional districts today. IT WILL BE FAR more difficult for an incumbent senator to campaign such a district.
It will be more difficult lor him to communicate with his constituents, and, perhaps, for them to communicate with him. But the listener gets the idea that the inconvenience that is worried about is inconvenience to the officeholder, rather than to the people. In any event, the decision was made in the last reapportionment, when the constitutional idea that people rather than acres should be the basis of legislative organization was reconfirmed. There will be many persons with private reservations about the implications of the system. An area-population balance might be feasible theoretically.
But it is too late to make the change one decade too late..
