- MONDAY. NOVEMBER 21, I960 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNF MEDFORD, ORE. A 5 That clears the diplomatic air and forestalls charges of imperialistic American inter vention in Latin-American af fairs. But the President of the United States needs no ex cuses for action in the situa tion that seems to have arisen. He has back of him a MAN DATE. The mandate of the Monroe Doctrine is to pre vent Old World powers from Interfering in the affairs of the independent nations of the Western Hemisphare "for the purpose of oppressing them or controlling IN ANY MANNER their destiny."

Suppose I charged that the bank was ALL WRONG IN TAKING STEPS TO PRO TECT ITSELF AGAINST ROBBERY and that its pres ident should be sent to jail for railing in the police. Do you suppose any court in the country would listen to the absurd charge that the bank was at fault in calling in the police to stop me from possible communist Invasion of Guatemala and Nicaragua the U.S. is merely preparing to attack Cuba. In the Day's News stooge, the Castro regime in Cuba, charges that these U.S. naval patrols in the Car ibbean arc Intervention on the part of the United States in Latin-American affairs, that they are "a grave threat to world peace and are A SMOKE SCREEN FOR AN AMERICAN ATTACK ON CUBA."

UPI MAN HONORED Henry Shapiro, right, Moscow bu reau chief for United Press International, accepts the Dis tinguished Achievement award in the newspaper media class from Dr. Norman Topping, president of the University of Southern California. The award was presented to Shapiro at a Danquet in Los Angeles. (UPI Telephoto) Drum mend Reports (Walter Lippmann is in South America. from Washington in hit absence.) Roscoe Drummond reports JMR. KENNEDY VS. MR. K. Washington - In their first " post-election exchange President-elect Kennedy has nim '. bly sidestepped the little trap " which Nikita Khrushchev set 'for him. The Soviet premier sent a telegram to Hyannis Port al most before Mr. Nixon and -'said in effect: Esteemed Mr. Kennedy, it is now in your hands to pull the United Stales " back from the course of war- mongering provocation and aggression which President Eisenhower pursued and re store the placid, trusted re flations which prevailed be tween Stalin and Roosevelt. It is indicative of Mr. Ken nedy's quickness of mind -which he showed often in the television "debates" - that he did not let this false implica tion pass even in casual and informal message. The, President-elect was alert to dissociate himself from Mr. Khrushchev's bland premise that if Mr. Kennedy started promoting peace, this -would be something new for 'the United States. What he 'said n effect was that he : would be carrying forward, not changing,' America's long standing purpose of trying to achieve a better peace. He used these words: "The achievement of a just and last : ing peace remains a funda ! mental goal of this nation, and a major task of Its presi ! dent.' I am most pleased to have your good wishes at this time." line along which they were developing in Franklin Roose velt's time . , . XTOTHING could be more ir- L" revelant.' Soviet-U.S. rela tions during the time of Roose velt and Stalin, were those of war-time allies fighting a com mon battle for survival. Mos cow threw over this alliance by imposing Soviet rule over Eastern Europe and later pro viding much of the sinews for Korean aggression. In private messages, now open to the historians, Chur chill and Roosevelt, shortly before FDR's death, began to see what a terrible mistake thev had made at Yalta by accepting unenforceable prom ises by Stalin of free elec tions in Eastern Europe. The Communist promises came easy. They dishonored them. It was then too late to re- Dair the damage. This is another reason why nothing could be more harm ful than to restore the Soviet- U.S. relations of the Stalin- RooseVelt era. WHATEVER He ATURALLY the President elect's first steps into in- tornalional diplomacy, par ticularly his dealings with Mr. .K, are going to be watched closely here and abroad. In this response to a con gratulatory message which M r . Khrushchev couldn't i keep from being argumenta tive, Mr. Kennedy was agile and prudent. He didn't say too rnnch; he didn't say too lit tle. Since the senator in his campaign had wrapped the - mantle of Franklin D. Roose : velt around his candidacy, evidently the Soviet leader .. saw an opportunity to wrap . the mantle of Franklin Roose- velt around the next summit rnnference. hoping to maKe a special appeal to Kennedy. "We hope," Mr. K. wired to - thr President - elect, "that while vou are at this post the relations between our coun tries would again follow the Mr. Khrush chev may hope to achieve at a spring summit, Mr. Ken nedy will not go with his eves closed, nor, he has said, will he attend an unprepared summit. Chester Bowles, the se tor's close foreign policy ad visor, warns against "mistak ing summitry for serious ne gotiations" and against "un dertaking high-level meetings without preparation in depth. As though he were tipping off Moscow, Mr. Bowles con tends that "summit meetings are valuable largely to con- f i r m agreements already reached." He has also tried to dispel some of the wishful thinking of those "who believe that negotiations for their own sake are an alternative to the cold war." I am sure that Mr. K. will not find Mr. Kennedy a "soft touch:" far from it. The basic premise of the President elect is sound; namely, that the Communists are not going to negotiate the cold war out of existence and that peace will be won not primarily by what we can do against the Communists but by what we do in behalf of the free world.
