Nixon Sounded out on
Visit; Health Problems Seen
By PHIL NEWSOM
UPI Foreign News Editor
From the foreign newt
editor's assignment book:
The Sawdust Trail
Soviet diplomats quietly
are sounding out whether
Vice President Richard M.
Nixon would like to return
Soviet Deputy Premier Anas
tas Mikoyan's U. S. tour early
this summer. Moscow Boss
Nikita Khrushchev occasion
ally speaks of the greeting
President Eisenhower would
get in the Soviet Union. At
the moment however, the wel
come mat appears aimed most
ly at Nixon. Apparently
Khrushchev would like to get
a close up of the man who
may be the next president.
Doctors Orders
The Kremlin also is wond
ering how a summit confer
ence could be held this sum
mer if White House physicians
advise the President against
making long trips. Khrush
chev is more than willing to
travel to Washington to see
the President. The Russians
also are considering the pos
sibility the President might
ask Vice President Nixon to
sit in for him should sum
mit negotiations prove long
or drawn out. The Russians
might be willing to accept Nix
on. They are determined there
will be a conference as close
to the summit as possible.
Their object, as one Soviet
diplomat put it, is to "thin
out the military fuel" in Eur
ope in order to maintain a po
litical status quo. First objec
tive in the "thinning out" pro
cess: Western troops out of
Berlin.
More About Health
Andwhat of Khrushchev's
health - and the recent report
In a West German newspaper
that he had been suffering
fainting spells? The most au
thoritative line from the
Kremlin is this: Khrushchev
is not a sick man, but like
any man of 65, he must watch
himself carefully. He is be-i
ginning to tire easily and has
long had liver trouble. It's
pointed out that Khrushchev
has had a far more strenuous
indeed gruelling, life than
most statesmen. This includes
work in pre-revolutionary
coal mines as well as the in
tense strain of working under
Stalin and surviving the pow
er scramble after Stalin's
death. So the Kremlin is con
cerned about Khrushchev's
health. But no specific ground
for concern are seen at the
moment.
Iron Curtain Secrecy
The Soviets apparently do
not always inform the Com
munist East Germans about
their Berlin strategy in ad
vance. Soviet Premier Nikita
Khrushchev's statement that
May 27 is just another date
caught East Germans by sur
prise. They had been predict
ing confidently that on May
27 they would get complete
control of Western Allied traf
ic to West Berlin. But
Khrushchev said controls will
not be handed over until a
peace treaty is signed.
Bottoms Up
There are reports Britain
is making overtures to Chile
and Argentina for possible
joint tenure of the Graham or
Palmer land penirsula in the
Antarctic. If such advances
are being made, they could
stem from a jet age project
to use the South Polar route
at the bottom of the world
for faster communication with
Australia. Canadian Pacific
first brought up the idea some
two years ago. Officials point
ed out the possibility of an
excellent payload through La
tin American countries en
route.
Pay Dirt
One story about how the
Communists finance their
propaganda activities in Latin
America is that they smuggle
gold or national currencies
by mule back through secret
mountain passes. An easier
method is the exhibition of
films from Iron Curtain coun
tries. The film costs are cheap
and the revenue from exhib
itors need not necessarily be
remitted. Some famous Soviet
pictures have been going the
rounds for many years.

Try and Stop Me
By BENNETT CERF-
N AMBITIOUS JUNIOR from Vassar was earning a little
extra pocket money by baby-sitting for a Poughkeepsie ac
countant when she ran into a rather special problem. She was
telling her 6-year-old ,
charge the story of Cinder
ella, and really let herself
go when she reached the
part where the pumpkin
turned into a resplendent
gold coach. That's where
the accountant's offspring
interrupted.
"How did Cinderella
handle the deal?" he want
ed to know. "Did she list it
as straight additional in
come or try to call it a capi
tal gain?"
James Thurber, great
humorist, loves to discover typographical errors and other boners In
the nation's newspapers. This one, printed in a California paper over
20 years ago, is just about his favorite: "Among the first to enter
the airplane was Mrs. Clara Adams of Tannersville, Pa, lone woman
passenger. Slowly her nose was turned around to face in a south
westerly direction. Then, like some strange beast, she crawled along
the grass."
