ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Washington Correspondent Washington - For all the talk of foreign policy, from Cuba to China, there is really no great di vider between th tun nrpRi. I dential candi ; dates along 'the whole range of for I e 1 g n prob lem! There is not a note of iso- nit! 8n lationism in the theme of either Richard M. Nixon or John F, Kenne dy. Both are firmly commit ted to continuing foreign aid in various forms to try to se cure the non Communist world against possible further incursions by the Reds. Long gone is the great de bate of a decade ago over the issue of whether American troops should be stationed outside the United States in Europe or kept here in a fortress America." There is no end in sight for U.S. mili tary men and equipment, from foot sholdiers to planes and rockets, on foreign allied soil. Neither candidate has suggested a change. Two small points on the global front have attracted the most attention from the candidates - the republic of Cuba and the two islands of Quemoy and Matsu lying within sight of the China mainland. Would 8uggst Defense Line The Chinese island issue arose due to a question asked of Kennedy in the second TV debate when he called Que moy and Matsu "not strate gically defensible." He said he would not favor "with drawal (of Chiang's troops) at the point of a Communist gun" but that he would sug gest to Chiang that the de fense line in the area be drawn at Formosa 90 miles away from the coast. Nixon jumped on this and said he, as President, would not surrender one Inch of free territory" and that these islands should be defended as an act of principle. Later both candidates mod ified their positions, without admitting they had retreated, so that they both stand on the policy embodied in the Formosa resolution adopted by Congress in 1955 which tates that the President can defend Quemoy and Matsu if he believes they are being attacked as a general assault of Formosa. Kennedy has been critical of the administration for the rise of Communist Influence In Cuba under Castro; but he and other Democrats were never critical' of America's tacit favoritism toward Castro during the early period of his revolt against dictator Batista. Horror Expressed When Kennedy later said he would try -to "strengthen the non-Batista Democratic anti-Castro forces in exile and in Cuba Itself who offer even tual hbpe of overthrowing Castro," Nixon expressed hor ror at this because 11 would the facilities could serve.

Nixon said, by contrast, the proper ap proach was the administra tion's new policy of "quaran tining Castro" just as we quarantined the Communist government of Guatemala in 1954 with the result "that the Guatemalan people them selves eventually rose up and they threw him out." Diplomatic observers here think there is an unreality about these expressed differ ences, for Kennedy didn't say he favored shipping arms to Castro opponents; and Nixon knew very well that the quar antine of Guatemala includ ed shipping arms to the the opponents who overthrew that government. Another Effort Favored Both candidates favor mak ing another effort to reach agreement on a ban of atomic tests. Failing, each would have the U.S. resume tests.

I jCi's.J'tQ ?,la"of MILKbpdiims Milk Before nd ' After the Show IK My brother paints in oils. It's a wonderful hobby. I took it up once but my children were young ones then and my first picture scared them so much I gave it up. Besides, I got paint on my knuckles and under my fin gernails. My brother doesn't profess to be an artist of the first water. But he is good enough that sometimes when he paints a picture you can't tell what it's supposed to be. Painting is his way of free ing exotic ideas that are im prisoned in his subconscious but won t come out at the call of mere words. They can be seduced into the sunlight only by line and color and patience. ' Too many professional art ists are bums, anyway. It should be as hard to win ac ceptance as an artist as to be voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. Anybody can paint a rea sonable picture of an apple, a banana and a dead mackerel on a plate. A first-rate second-baseman is a rare bird. My brother recently gave us one of his works. I had admired it, hinting that it would look good over our bookcase. He is as big of heart Michelangelo, if not so skilled a draftsman. He gave it to us. Now it hangs in our house. It is the talk of the neighbor hood. Of course, it isn't an ordinary painting. As I make it out, It shows 12 blue horses stampeding through an autumnal blizzard of gold, orange and burnt oehcr. The horses are scared of something. In the warm firmament about them hangs an icy orb, like an alien planet. It was no sooner on the wall than it faced its first test. Lester came to the door with his bones. He's the boy who brings bones in a paper sack for the dogs. He handed over the bones. Then he stood In the living room gazing dumbly up at the painting. He looked at It a long time. Then he moved to the door, watching the picture over his shoulder. He darted out the door and ran home. He hadn't said a word. Of course, Lester can't talk well yet. But it was a portent. The next was the girl in the red bouffant dress. She was one of two girls who were going to the school dance with one of my boys, although he was actually going with a third girl. Youth has the flexibility to deal with such complex and hazardous situa tions. She stared at the painting as if in hypnosis. "What is that?" she said at last. - "That's an oil painting," I said. "My brolhcr painted it." She glanced quickly at me, to sec if I was telling the truth. She contemplated the painting some more. Under standing lit her eyes. "Oh!" she exclaimed. "He did It with numbers." I dismissed these incidents as childish naivete. Then Gribble came to bor row a cup of Cutty Sark. He said his wife was feeling poor ly and fancied a stimulant. Mrs. Gribble has these spells about once a week. Gribble waited in the liv ing room while I went for the stimulcnt. "Hey!" he called out. "New picture?" "Yes," I hollered. "My brother painted it." He was regarding it critical ly when I came back. "Holy cow!" he said. "That's really something. How'd your brother do it? With those numbers?" "Tell you what, Gribble,, I said. "Lets us split this stimu lcnt. I'll get some more for Mrs. Gribble." After a while, Gribble said, "You know something, Jack? I like those horses. I don't care if they are blue. They're wonderful blue horses. Don't you forget that, pal." "At least, Gribble, boy," I agreed, "they look like horses, eh? They don't look like nine nude women descending lousy staircase." Gribble finally left to suc cor his ailing wife. I tele phoned my brother. "Listen," I said. "Tell me the truth. Did you paint that dam thing with numbers?" and social advancements. Both candidates, after tour ing Africa in recent years, recommended greater Ameri can assistance to the newly emerging Independent nations of that continent. solicited the views of diplo mats in 40 countries - some foreign and some American d 1 p 1 o m atic personnel. The views of editors, businessmen, government officials and others were also asked. On foreign policy, it comes Contention Supported down to a vote of confidence that one or the other would make the better leader of the western alliance to cope with the Communist challenge and marshall America's moral and industrial strength. Prestige Debated Richard M. Nixon has been telling the voters that Ameri can prestige abroad is at an "all-time high" and that So viet prestige is at an "all time low" as a consequence of the foreign policies of the past eight years. John F. Kennedy has been contending that American prestige has fallen throughout the world because of Russian advancements in space rockets and a failure of the United States to exert proper leader ship of the free world. Prestige is an intangible factor which evades measure ment in concrete terms. It is one's reputation or influence rising from success or achieve ments. It's an evaluation made by others. To determine what is the state of American prestige abroad, the New York Times "The result supports em phatically the contention that Soviet prestige in the world has grown during the last eight years and that the posi tion of the United States has slipped In the eyes of a large majority," the Times report ed. "Few foreigners express ed any doubt about the abso lute dominance of the United States over the Soviet Union. None, however, suggested that this country had in re cent years extended its lead over the Russians in any im portant field. Serious concern was expressed by many that the present lead of the U.S. might be lost in time. Reasons cited for this gen eral condition varied from nnuntrv to country. Some im plied blame for acts of the Ei senhower administration; ana some were cases of being damned if we did and damned if we didn't.

Eisenhower's visit to that area, however, helped pres ses In both countries, but the U2 spy plane incident nun in both countries. , In Africa, the U.S. Is caught between the colonial powers, which are allies in the free world, and the emerging new nations. Whites in this area blame the U.S. for interfer ing and favoring indepen dence; and racial strife here at home hurts us in the eyes of the colored peoples of this continent. Power Decline Contended But on the continent of Europe, there appears to be a general sentiment that the Dower of the West has declin ed in relation to the power of the East. In Western Germany opinion polls taken in 1952 showed that 66 per cent thought the West could win a military struggle with the East. Last year only 36 per cent still believed this. A report that was typical of much of the world, said the Times, was that American prestige had fallen for these reasons: 1. Loss of dynamism in for eign policy; 2. failure to lead the western alliance; 3. uncer tainty and fumbling in Wash ington over the U-2 incident; 4. riots in Japan; and 5. emergency in the public mind of the Soviet Union as the military and industrial equal of the United States. "Despite the overwhelm ing agreement that there-had been a drop in the prestige of the U.S. around the world, the survey disclosed evidence oi deep confidence that this country could, if it tried, move ahead rapidly and re assert its position in all spheres. One Scandinavian diplomat said he thought Americans were far too wor ried about what other people thought of them. "Why don't you just get on with the job?" he asked.

Police said between 20 and 30 men burst Into the Chez Parcc Cafe early this morn ing and "smashed all that's smashable." A spokesman for the night club, where most North Amer ican entertainers have worked at one time or another, called the raid the most daring en terprise of the underworld which has been feuding with local managers since earlier this year. "The piano was tossed across the bar," the spokes man said, "the television set thrown against the bar. It looks like a tornado has hit the place." Suult Ste.
