Scripps-Howard
Supports GOP
Washington - (UPI) - The
Scripps-Howard - . Newspapers
today endorsed the national
Republican ticket, calling the
combination of Richard M.
Nixon for president and
Henry Cabot Lodge for vice
president J "s o 1 i d e r" and
"sounder" than - the Demo
cratic candidates.
An editorial prepared for
the 19 Scripps-Howard papers,
said the Nixon-Lodge ticket
was better qualified than the
Democratic nominees, Sens,
John F. Kennedy and Lyndon
B, Johnson, to cope with the
threat of war, counter the
march of world communism
and maintain a strong do
mestic economy,
It said Nixon and Kennedy
are "able and intelligent,
both "seek substantially the
same ends, and "neither
would be played for a sucker
by Soviet Premier Nikita
Khrushchev."
"But this is an especially
bad time for.careless talk and
Senator Kennedy has shown
a disturbing tendency to shoot
from the hip," the editorial
said. 1
Nixon, it said, is "more
astute" in public statements.
It concluded "we're firmly
convinced that the solider,
sounder ticket is Nixon and
Lodge."
The Scripps-Howard news
papers supported resident
Eisenhower in 1952 and 1956.

Red China Problem
Fates
By K. C. THALER '
London- (UPD -The most ex
plosive problem facing Soviet
Premier Nikita Khrushchev
on his return to Moscow is
the smouldering conflict with
Red China over world com
munism's future policies. .
The ideological differences
between the two Communist
giants appear to have deep
ened during Khrushchev's ab
sence in New York. '
Peiping's studied near-silence
on the Soviet leader's
performance before the world
assembly has spotlighted the
coolness in Sino-Russian rela
tions. But Khrushchev apparently
is confident that he has
strengthened his hand for.a
possible showdown by his ac
tivities at the United Nations
General Assembly. 'v't
This has emerged fron ,the
buildup which the Soyiet
press and radio have given
to the Communists in Russia
and behind the Iron Curtain
generally (except in China) of
Khrushchev's role in New
York.

Talks with Red, China are
set in Moscow early next
