o o o O o O O O G O Hurry-Up Invitation to Chou Seen Sign of Russian Worries Br CHARLES M. McCANN United Preis Correspondent The announcement that Chou En-lai is to visit ?.Iosow shows clearly how worried the Soviet government is over its pres ent situation. It is evident that, the in vitation to the Chinese Com munist leader to fo to Russia was both un expected and Charles Mctina Urgent. Chou was in Pakistan, in the middle of a highly successful tour of East Asian countries, when the -Ioscow invitation reached him. To Visit Nehru As che result Chou will in terrupt his tour. He plans to go to India to confer with Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, then flyc Peiping for consultation with his Red Chinese cabinet colleagues, and continue on to Russia, arriving on Jan. 7. From Moscow, it j announced, Chou will go to Warsaw to visit j ) "Titcftt" B o 1 i s h Communist I leader Wladyslaw Gomulka. This visit, too, is unexpected and certainly significant. It is uncertain whether Go mulka extended his invitation on his own initiative possibly without consulting Russia or whether he acted in cooperation with the Soviet government. Gornulka is steering Poland skillfully on a difficult course. As the result of the Polish re volt, he has won a great meas ure of independence from Rus rian domination. He is now try ing to keep the aroused Polish people from anti-Russian out breaks. Keeping In Line It is possible that Russia wants Chou to talk to Gomulka in order to keep him in line. But it must be remembered that at the time of the Polish revolt, Chou expressed his ap proval of Gomulka's bid for in dependent Communism. When Chou later supported Russian intervention in Hun gary, he sent a secret message to Gomulka emphasizing that this did not mean a change in his attitude toward Poland. Chou visited India before Prime Minister Nehru went to the United States to see Presi dent Eisenhower. While he was in India Chou made no attempt to keep secret his opinion that, while he pub licly approved the Soviet inter vention in Hungary, he believed that Russia had tarnished its own prestige and had harmed world Communism by its bru tality. It seems certain that th Rus sians want to fix up their relation.- with Red China and try to keep Chou from making any statements which are critical of Russian policy. a . and O '- 0 5 U 2) o o 3 O Three Bombs Explode In Downtown Nicosia Nicosia, Cyprus !U.R) Anti British extremists exploded three bombs in Nicosia's down town shopping district Tuesday night. British troops rushed from Christmas parties to blockade the area in an effort to trap the bomb throwers. The explosions damaged two Greek - Cypriot shops. There were no casualties. In the Day's News By FHANK JENKINS There are intimations in the news that when Vice President Nixon returns from Austria he will recommend changes in U.S. immigration laws that will per mit very largely increased num bers of Hungarian refugees to come to our country. That probability prompts two questions.: 1. What will we do with them when they get here? 2. Will they get along well and be happy in their new home? rpHE answer to the first ques- tion is obvious: We must find work for them to do as rapidly as possible. Useful work is the surest road to happiness and a sense of well-being. An interesting answer to the second question is provided by the head of the largest family to migrate to the United States since the 1953 refugee act be came effective. His name is Nicholas Moons and he came to this country via The Nether lands with his wife and 13 chil dren. They are now settled in the Middle West. Interviewed by a Des Moines reporter the other day, he said: "Refugees from Hungary can make a happy life for them selves in this country. All they need to do is to combine willpow er and WORK. Some immigrants have the idea they will always receive help after they come to America. Sure, they will get help when they need it, especial ly while they are getting started in their new life but they must learn to HELP THEMSELVES if they are to get along and be happy." That is sound advice. TN its earlier years, our country 1 received and absorbed large waves of refugee immigrants from Europe. A notable instance is the heavy immigration of Ger mans that followed the failure of the German revolution in 1848. These people came to us seeking the kind of life they had tried to make for themselves in their homeland. They found it. And they made splendid citizens. A somewhat similar wave of immigration came to us from Ireland following the failure of the Irish potato crop in the 1840s. This resulted in a terrible famine because in the Ireland of those days the land was large ly in the hands of landlords and rentals were paid chiefly in what we term "grain rent." The crops of the tenants were taken Wednesday, December 26, 1958 nedfosd (cazao) MfciiTOirrtR-irf0 to pay their rent, and because of the failure of the potato crop, which lasted over a period of years, there wasn't enough left to feed the tenants. Thousands of them died, and hundreds of thousands migrated to other countries. , Very large numbers came to America and, as in the case of the Germans, they made fine American citi zens. This Irish strain in our American blood-stream is one that we simply couldn't do with REFUGEE MIGRATION TO AMERICA THERE CAME TO US DWIGHT ' DAVID EISENHOWER. w HEN we open up our doors to the persecuted of ojher lands, we ar apt to thinfc n triim oq smugly of what re oir; 0 for them. 0 o O .Our own history rovid O clear and unassailable pssotof the benefits are mutual. OPEAKING of refugees and the benefits that have come to America as a result of taking them in and making them a part of us and sharing our opportun ities and our resources and our responsibilities and vour hopes with them, let's cite one particu lar family. This family fled from the bit ter and terrible religious perse cutions of Germany of the 1600s and settled in Switzerland. After about a century, its descendants took ship to America and settled in Pennsylvania. A generation later, a member of this family pulled up his roots in Pennsyl vania and with his wife and chil dren set out in a covered wagon for the wide prairies of Kansas.
