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

cial glow.
It passed from the premier
ship to the first secretary of the

used to be Stalin's, and the job
Khrushchev has run since 10
days after the old dictator died
on March 5, 1933.

Using the key spot to politic his
way to the top from the begin

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. - . .'
Demands of Equality
The party boss is not shy or
modest about reminding his
comrades of his superior brand

ways, if you're in the press gal-

When other Bolshevik big

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

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

"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."

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

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.

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.
