'I he I following 'di-.atrn whirh t'll about hrukbOir is based on personal otter auotw By KEfTNETH BRODNEY Written for th United Press When Nikita Khrushchev in tuits ail the Western ambassa dor in Moscow, they know tuey've been given the business Irom the top. -. They knew ft twice this week some sort of a record, even for Khrushchev and both times they walked out on him in out raged diplomatic huffs. Unfazed, the top man in Rus sia suisestc-d, "If you don't like us. don t accept our invitations and don't invite us to come to you." " That's how much Khrushchev worries about the niceties of protocol. But when the short and quat, pink and pudgy ex plumber parades majestically under the crystal chandeliers in the grand palace of the Krem lin, you know he owns the place. A Distinctive Position There's something about be ing number one out of all the 200,CKI0,uu0 Kussiani that writes itself all over a man lmpite all the talk about collec tive leadership. Georje Malenkov. had it "when be was premier; but Nikolai BBlganiD. who succeeded Mal enkov, rlidu't inherit that spe cial glow. It passed from the premier ship to the first secretary of the -Communist party, the job that used to be Stalin's, and the job Khrushchev has run since 10 days after the old dictator died on March 5, 1933. Khrushchev only got the- title six months .later, fcut he was Using the key spot to politic his way to the top from the begin ning just as Stalin had done dcaJes before. Khrushchev bas not yet be come the all-powerful dictator Stalin was, but he is recognized sis "The most equal .among quals" in the 11-man presidium of th party, which is the board or airectors lor the entire Soviet mpire. - . .'

When other Bolshevik big wigs make speeches, Khrush chev frequently pays'no atten tion at all. He reds documents, carries on lively conversations with shchev is a great soup-lover. He hunches his powerful shoul ders over the table, lowers his white-fringed, pink, bald, bullet head until his pug nose almost touches the plate, and devotes his complete and intense concen tration to spooning. But when Khrushchev finally finishes his soup and gets up to neighbors or if he s hungry he i speak himself, everybody eats. : listens. They don't talk, and Like most Russians, Khru-' Bulganin doesn't eat. 60P Leadership in Senate Said Needed Washington U.R) Sen. Irving M. Ives said today the Re publicans "must have leadership in the Senate that is in line with the President's viewpoints" if the Eisenhower legislative 'pro gram is to succeed. The New York .Republican." a down-the-line backer of" Mr. Eisenhower, said responsibility for putting over the President's program also rests strongly on individual congressmen." "I'm ued to going down the nne. sacrificing my own inter ests for the sake of the adminis tration In control." Ives said. He is a former speaker and GOP floor leader of the New York state assembly. "Unless yon have that- kind of leadership, you don't lead very much," Ives told newsmen. Every normal working day British railways transport one million tons of profit-earning freight, a substantial gain over pre-war figures. What Khrushchev seems to be on the team and it still seems to be a team despite his pre eminence is the dynamo, the powerhouse of energy and driv ing willpower, the pusher and the bull-roarer. Shrewd. But Not Intellectual Neither foreigners nor Rus sians underestimate his shrewd ness, but he is not the intellect ual type, not the hair-splitting theorizer. The son of a miner, he had very little schooling, and his temperament is more likely to lead him to bull-like stubborn ness or suddenly giving in, but not to quibbling. Now 62, he's come almost as far as he can go, but it hasn't all been smooth sailing. In 1947, when he was at his long-time job of party boss in the Ukraine, discontent and war time devastation was so bad partisan warfare actually broke out. Stalin sent trouble-shooter Lazar Kaganovich to put out the Quotes From the News By UNITED PRESS Budapest A Hungarian on the Russians' use of force: "The workers were so much united by last week's, events that they will never fall apart again. The government must realize by now that the use of force is pointless."

The Anglo-French have much more to lose than Egypt." Amsterdam Egyptian Foreign Minister Mahmoud Fawii on Egypt purchasing more arms from the Communists: "It is no secret that we have bought arms from Communist countries and we shall do so ogain if we need them." Honolulu Admiral Felix B. Stump, commander of the U.S. Pacific fleet, on Hawaii as an atomic target: "I don't think Hawaii is a prime atomic target and I'd hale to Have any news stories give the Russians the idea that it is." And again in 1951, in Mos cow, he overdid the centraliza tion of collective farms, was forced to confess he'd been flat wrong, but again survived. Now he's in trouble again, with Poland breaking quietly away and Hungary in flaming ruins. Some think his personal insults to the Western ambassa dors are a sign of nerves. But Khrushchev, still proud of the fact he worked with his hands, is tough, and he'll fight hard to survive this blow, too. A Nichol's Worth of . . . Comment On This and That By HARMAN W.

SUN lIFf ASSURANCE COMPANY OF CANADA fS Charles E. Jones, Local Agent PHONE 2-9772 As recent events In the Mid dle East bring a new crisis to the East-West struggle, the Med ford Public library has received a very timely compilation of articles on the issues involved. The volume, "The Middle East in the Cold War," edited by Grant McClellan. is one of "The Reference Shelf series which reprints articles on many sides of current controversial ques tions. Its chapters present the Arab as well as the Israeli side of the conflict in Palestine and set forth both the British and the Egyptian cases concerning the Suez canal controversy. Policy. Actions U.S. policy and U.N. actions are examined from the view point of Middle Easterners as well as from the U.S. state de partment. Among specific topics discussed are oil resources, the Aswan Dam project, conflicts within the Arab League, and supplying arms to Israel. Another late book portraying the Middle East as a stage for w-orld power politics is "World Without End," by Emil Lengyel. Cutting across the Middle East from various angles, historical, geographical, economic and so cial, the author gives us insight into four basically different cul tures: Arabian, Turkish, Iranian, and Israelite. Maurice Hindus, in his book, '"In Search of a Future." writes discerningly and entertainingly of Persia. Egypt, Iraq, and Pal estine. He diagnoses the basic ailment of Arab and Moslem countries as landlordism, and the remedy he proposes Is land reform. With a slight emphasis on Arab arguments Nevill Barbour gives us the history' of the Jews and Arabs in Palestine and an analysis of their opposing claims to the area in "Palestine, Star or Crescent?" The 'Jewish viewpiont, how ever, is foremost in "The Re birth and Destiny of Israel," by Ben-Gurion, first prime minister of the new nation. His book re lates the historical background arid the recent development of the- new s.tate as does Thomas 1 Sugrue's "Watch for the Morn ing", the story of Palestine's Jewish pioneers. "Sound the Great Trumpet," edited bv Moses Frank, is a : story of the I Of special ! rpariprs i Hnffman's "'The Land and People of Israel," describ ing the efforts of the Jews to build a new country as well as i something of the great history just after the establishment of Israel. The author talked with statesmen and leaders and with the man in the street, and he gives us a thoroughly readable account of the color and flavor of the land today. Material on the Near East and its problems is brought up to the minute by material in the pamphlet collection of the Med ford Public library.
