Among the newswriters this has caused near hysteria. It is being hailed, already yet, as a great triumph over Russia.

At any given moment in Amer ica there are perhaps 15 million people involved with the water wagon 5 million climliing on, 5 million riding precariously atop it, and 5 million falling nlf. Sometimes one gets the feeling that the major form of adult ex ercise in our country is clamber ing up or diving olf that old water wagon. It's a popular way to tune up the muscles if not the charac ter. Ability to ride the water wagon gracrlully, without losing eilher one's own balance or boring one's friends, is probably the sternest test of character in our civilization.

Premier Khrushchev scored an early propaganda victory by pro posing the meeting but then (rom what seemed sheer impulse ralher than shrewdness got himself into a box from which he finally escaped by calling the whole thing off. The Eisenhower administration, reluctant about such a meeting at all, got pressured into agreeing to one. It finally suggested the kind of get-together that almost cer tamly would have turned into a name-calling, shouting match. If the administration decided to agree but only under conditions it felt Khrushchev couldn't wouldn't accept, it succeeded. The linal Soviet refusal to meet or American terms caused no un happiness among key olliclals here. Khrushchev Rot a two-edged propaganda jump: hy proposing I lie meeling and at the same time hy accusing the United States and Britain of aggression in sending their troops into Lebanon and Jordan. II was hardly Ihe way to start toward a peaceful meeting. He proposed the United Stales, the Soviet Union, Britain, France and India meet outside the United Nations and, if they reached agreements, make recommenda tions to the U.N. i He wasn't alone in this idea. French Premier de Gaulle didn't want a summit meeting in the U.N. eilher.) President Eisenhower and Sec retary of Slate Dulles had very little stomach for the Khrushchev proposal. Ever since last Decem ber they had opposed a summit meeting without thorough prepara tion and agreement on what would be discussed. Khrushchev wanted a meeting in a hurry. British Prime Minis ter Macmillan agreed but suggest ed it he held in the U.N. Security Council. Eisenhower and Dulles could either agree or break with Britain. Under this pressure, they agreed. Then Khrushchev pulled what looked like a huge boner. He shol hack his acceptance last, so fast he didn't have much time lo think it oxer. Ry agreeing lo meet in Ihe Security Council he was ig noring two facts which he later pointed out angrily when he flat ly relused to meet in the council: I. That the It-nation Council is loaded with American friends. On any matter except one of major iets figured to be overwhelmingly outvoted, if there was a vole. 2. By sitting down in the Council where Chiang Kai-shek's Na tionalist China is a permanent member he might seem to be agreeing that Chiang had a right ful place there. Red China, excluded from U. N. membership mainly by American influence, claims it should be on the Council and that Chiang is an imposter. So Red China couldn't help being disturbed by Khru shchev's sitting in the Council. By this time deadly damage had been done anyway. For the let ters from Khrushchev to Eisen hower and the Eisenhower letters to Khrushchev were full of accu sations, charges and countercharges. In brief, Khrushchev kept ac cusing this country of direct ag gression in the Middle East: this country accused the Soviet Union of indirect aggression. But when Eisenhower subse quently began laying down 'condi tions for any meeting in Ihe U. N, that it had to be according to rules and preceded by agree ments Khrushchev apparently had second thoughts and said he wanted none of it. Meanwhile, two things hap pened: 1. Last Thursday Dulles at a news conference made clear this country was not going to a sum mit meeting with any broad Mid east program but with only two main purposes in mind: to deny Soviet charges of American ag gression and to accuse the Soviets of indirect aggression. With this revelation it became clear any meeting under those conditions would be a shouting match. 2. Khrushchev flew to Red Chi na where his allies must have been disturbed about the thought of his sitting down in the Council with Nationalist China. So yester day he fired off a blast: He wanted no part of a summit meeting in a Security Council loaded with American friends and no part of sitting down with Chi ang Kai-shek or his representative. Instead, he proposed Ihe whole Mideast problem be turned over ( to Ihe 81 nations in the General Assembly. Eisenhower quickly agreed. This opened the door to new arguments about what the Assembly would discuss. Inflalion Editor's Note Is Ihe stock market right about more inflation being a sure thing? How much more? What can be done about it? In Ihe following article, first in a series of three, Sam Dawson. AP business news analyst, dis cusses Ihe impact on the consum er. Hy SAM DAWSON AP Rusiness News Analvst NEW YORK IAP) - Ask Ihe housewife and she'll toll you more inflation is already here. She isn't talking about what she doesn't buy the higher priced ton of sleel or pound of copper. She's talking about what the fam ily pays out Ihe higher prices tor meat, the increased cost of her husband's getting to work, the bigger bills for keeping the chil dren healthy, Ihe latest rent boost. Ask the businessman and he'll tell you more inflation is a real threat. He's talking about the in creases in Ihe price of metals and other basic materials, the higher wage scales, the greater trans portation costs all pushing him toward raising his prices to you. Ask the economist and he'll tell you more Inflation isn't a sure thing yet hut a lossnp. which seems sure as the govern ment borrows more and more from the commercial banks. But he also notes that while there's likely to be too much money around, there aren't' too few goods for it to chase the capacity to make more goods is already in place waiting for demand to call it into production. Inflation is no economic theory for the consumer. It hits him where he lives. For him it sim ply means that the cost of living goes up. If more inflation Is really com ing for sure, your present income won't buy as much. If inflation is big enough, your income won't buy what you need, let alone what you'd like to have if you could. If you're lucky enough to get your income boosted along with the cost of living, you're likely to end up in the same old rut any way just keeping even with what in time can 'become a los ing game. ' For the consumer a new threat of inflation comes on top of what looks bad enough right now. By official figures what $1 would buy 10 years ago and $1.20 would buy last year, it takes $1.24 to buy now. If you talk about what a buck would buy in 1939 you have lo talk now about what $2 will buy. Food prices average 8 per cent higher than last year. The Agri culture Department says .80 per cent of the increase is due to farmers getting higher prices and 40 per cent to marketing concerns getting more. Meat prices seem high in the store. Well, live hogs are bringing 11 per cent more now than last sum mer: beef on the hoof 22 per cent more. But food prices are moved up or down as much by weather and marketing problems as by pure monetary inflation. It's in other fields that the consumer may be hurt next. The recession didn't bring the general drop in prices that many expected, so any new inflation would slart from a high level. , The average consumer spends 14 per cent of his income on dur able goods. Their average price reached a record high in Novem ber 1957 at 110.9 per cent of the 1947-49 average, and it slipped hack only to 109.6 per cent in June before the rise in metal prices which bring the new threat. Soft goods prices reached a peak last November at 117.4 per cent of the 1947-49 average and slipped only to 116.5 per cenj by this June. Food prices are today's villain. These seem likely to ease in the months ahead. But standing in the wings are threatening rises in oth er prices now in durables, and in the cost of the services you've come to demand. And if .monetary infaltion really takes hold, prices could rise all along the line. Tomorrow: What will more in flalion do to business and its re covery?
