But the two debates we have seen are e x p e r i mental, and we should be careful not to let their for mat and pro cedure become frozen as a precedent. The most questionable fea ture of the two debates is the sandwiching of a panel of in terrogators between the two debaters. Genuine debate can be had only if the debaters confront each other directly, and are allowed to ask each other questions. To let the panel ask the questions is to rely too much on the judg ment and on the unconscious bias of the members of the panel. But there is an even more compelling reason, I submit. why we must not let this for mat establish itself as a. prece dent for the future. It is, to speak- frankly, that it is high ly corruptible. I do not, of course, think for a moment that there is a shadow of doubt about the distinguished corre spondents who have appeared in tne two debates. But the fact is that the present format is a quiz show, and, of the political quiz show becomes the accepted format not only for Presidential candidates but for all other candidates, the temptation to rig the show is in many cases almost cer tain to become too strong to be resisted. As in the quiz shows the prize is too great and the temptation is loo strong and corruption is too easy. The only certain guarantee which the voters can have is that the two candidates ques tion each other. Then rigging will be impossible.- TURNING to questions of substance, thereis the dis cussion of the offshore Chi nese islands -of Quemoy and Matsu. In response to Mr. Edward Morgan's question, Senator Kennedy had said that the islands were strategically in defensible, that they are not essential to the defense' of Formosa, and that he was in favor of persuading the Chi nese Nationalists to pull their troops out of these islands and back to Formosa. Mr. Nixon's reply was that the islands are "unimportant," that "the few people who live on these islands are not tod Important." "IT'S THE PRIN CIPLE INVOLVED." What principle? "These two islands are in the area of free dom. The Nationalists have these two islands. We should not force our Nationalist al lies to get off of them and give them to the Communists." most - pathological." The next day Secretary Dulles said at a press confer ence that "it has been rather foolish of Chiang to have so many of his troops on Que moy." -f". The following day President Eisenhower at his press con ference said that "as a sol dier" he believed it was un wise for the Nationalists to have put so large a force on Quemoy and Matsu. For "as of themselves" they "are not greatly vital to Formosa." . rVHE difference between the position taken by the Pres ident and Mr. Dulles on' the one hand and that adopted by Mr. Nixon in the debate on Friday is very wide indeed. For never until Friday night on TV: did these wretched islands become a matter of moral principle and not a sub ject for political, diplomatic, and strategic calculation. My view is that Mr. Nixon is too noble. He Is too reck less with his principles. He ought to come down to the lower level where statesmen have to work. (c) 1960 New York Herald Tribune Inc.

Argentina Crisis Appears Ended Buenos Aires - (UPD - Argen tina's latest military crisis ap peared today to have ended in a compromise amounting to victory for President Ar- turo Frondizi. An announcement revealed Frondizi had yielded to some of the "suggestions" made by a group of "rebel" generals, but indicated he stood firm against demands for the dis missal of key cabinet min isters and revision of "pro foreign" economic policies. The defense ministry an nounced at midnight it had revoked orders alerting thous ands of soldiers, sailors, marines and police which were issued when It appeared the crisis might erupt into major violence. Gen. Rodolfo Larcher, who resigned as army secretary Tuesday night, was reinstated Wednesday night. Gen. Carlos Toranzo Montero, army com mander and chief of the "rebels," also retained his job. v: LAGE VARIETY RED HOT WEEK-END SPECIALS Reg. 1.49 4-Sew Brooms 95 Values to 2.98 Toy Assortm't 88 4.95 Value Basketball Shoes 288 3.49 Value 22x28 Framed Pictures 2.77 ' 49c Giant Size Nestles Chic Bars 2177' Reg. 4.95 ' Boys' Raincoats with hood protective yellow. 2.99 General Purpose .

WE HAVE to defend Quemoy and Matsu as a matter of principle. But the Vice President seems to have forgotten, or he is hoping that the rest of us have forgotten, that five years ago-to be pre cise, in January and Fabruary 1955 - President Eisenhower and Secretary Dulles were quite unaware of the existence of Mr. Nixon's "principle." For it was then that they in duced our Nationalist allies to evacuate their troops from the Tachen Islands, and they used the United Slates 7th Fleet to help the Chinese evacuation. Why did President Eisen hower and Secretary Dulles abandon the islands which were In the area of freedom? Because, said Secretary Dull es in his press conference of Jan. 18, 1955, "I would not say that the Tachen Islands are in any sense essential to the defense of Formosa and the Pescadores, which we do regard as vital to us." This is precisely the rea son which Senator Kennedy gave why . we should do in Quemoy and Matsu what we did in the Tachcns - induce the Chinese Nationalists to evacuate them because they are not essential to the de fense of Formosa and . the Pescadores. 1IHY, it is fair to ask, did I ' ' Pre! ident Eisenhower and Secretary Dulles not ap ply the same principle - tnat of strategic importance in the defense of Formosa - to Que moy and Matsu? The true an swer is that they might have done so but Chiang had too much political support in the persons of Senators Knowland and Jenner. The administra tion could not and did not push the matter through. But the Bsenhower administra tion has, nevertheless, regard ed Quemoy and Matsu ai somethina to live with, not something to rejoice over. This came into the open in 1958. In the first week o Oc tober Mr. Hertcr, then under secretary of state, made speech saying that Quemoy Manufactured by LINDY PEN CO, CoIyh City, Calif, and Matsu were not "strategt I '..ssMssWisWsWsMsssssWsWlllsiiiisisisssssssssssssss. i V .4 ' ' 8 9 09
