FRIDAY. JUNE 12. 1959 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS OREGON PACK S A Geneva Conclave Useful, Says Nixon In SF Speech t By JOHN R. WARD SAN FRANCISCO AP) "Is anything to be gained by confer 'ence with the Russians?" That question was put to Vice President Richard M. Nixon at a Commonwealth Club banquet Thursday night and he replied: "There is a great deal of justi fication for the question. Develop ments in Seneva don't offer too much encouragement, but the con ferences are most useful. "And the main point it, the al ternative to talking is unaccept able. The United States and the Soviet Union would draw apart and quite conceivably could end up by fighting. Neither the United States or any other nation can afford to risk settlements by force. "But the frightening thing Is war can come when all parties concerned do not want it. Nixon said, however, there has been absolutely no change in the l s. policy that any summit con ference would have to be preceded by signs of progress at the current conierence of foreign ministers. The vice president, his wife, Pat. and daughters. Patricia. 13, and Julie. 10. flew here from New York where he participated in ceremonies marking the Moth an niversary of the discovery of the Hudson River. They go to Virginia City today where Nixon will speak informal ly at Nevada's silver centennial celebration. Nixon spoke on a wide range of subjects at the dinner sponsored by the civic club. He predicted that labor reform will be a "major issue in the MM) presidential campaign and should he." He expressed doubt that the current session of Congress would enact labor reform legislation. 1 he Kennedy Ives bill, as passed by the Senate, still is too weak to deal with labor excesses. he added. "The legislation should make all unions follow the good practices already being observed by most unions in the country He hopes his July trip to Mos cow to open the U.S. exhibit at the International Trade Fair "will help reduce the lack of under standing of our country." "It is in the national interest to extend our exchanges of all types with the Soviet Union," he added. "Over the long haul it is the only way to reduce tensions.

Virginia, now silver-haired and a widow, never has lost her faith in all kinds of folk, including Kris Kringle. It has paid off, too, in universal love and respect, and endeared her to thousands of kids who came under her supervision. Only the other day a middle- aged cab driver turned to his passenger, who was Virginia, and said: "I'm Harold from Public School 31. I used to think you were greater person than the Presi dent." In addition to the songs and speeches at the dinner, there was a reading of that famous letter: "Dear Editor: Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus. Please tell me the truth." Mrs. Douglas was "feeling a little shy" about rereading the reply written by the late Francis Pharcellus Church, which said in part: "Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist. How dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus. It would be as dreary as it there were no Virginias. For the last three years Mrs. Douglas, retired at the manda tory age, was junior principal at P.S. 401, which-supervises classes held in 10 hospitals and other in stitutions for chronically 111 chil dren. Mrs. Douglas plans to live with her only daughter and son-in-law Mr. and Mrs. Robert Temple, and their seven children at North Chatham, N.Y. Summing up her feelings about her students, Mrs. Douglas said: "It must be the eternal light with which childhood fills the world." governor.

This is the last meet ing before summer recess WASHINGTON f API The Senate Foreign Relations Commit tee wants a start made next year on a cutting down and eventually wiping out all gifts of foreign economic assistance. It contends loans are better. The committee wrote its de mand Thursday into President Eisenhower's S3.930.000.0OO foreign aid bill. Both the Senate and the House must agree if it is to be come eftective. No deadline was fixed. Sen. Mike Mansfield 'D-MonO, pu-hing lor more emphasis on loans, had been urging that all gifts of aid be ended by June 30, 1963. Mansfield's proposal would have applied to grants and gifts of special economic assistance, for which Eisenhower is asking 250 million dollars next year, and de fense economic supports, (or which he seeks 835 million. Fixing no time limit, the com mittee adopted an amendment asking Eisenhower to submit a specific plan next year under which such grant assistance "shall be progressively reduced and eliminated." The plan It asked for would apply different standards to dif ferent countries receiving aid Critics of Mansfield's proposal had contended that some conn tries would need grants rather than loans for a long time. in other actions, the committee voted to curb secrecy on foreign aid spending and to restrict gov ernment guarantees on private investment abroad. Secrecy on the amount of aid to any country would be limited to that necessary to U.S. security. The administration would be re quired to make public all other information on both military and economic aid. Sen. Frank Church (D-ldahoK who sponsored the secrecy ban. cited an example involving Brazil. He said it has long been known that this country has a missile tracking station on a Brazilian is land, but secrecy hides how much rent," as he put it, this country is paying Brazil. Under an amendment invest ment guarantees would be limited to those made in underdeveloped countries. They are now available gener ally to guarantee American inves tors abroad against losses from war. confiscation or inability to convert foreign currencies into dollars. Aiken said the chance would prevent further guarantees against such losses in countries like England. France, West Ger many and Italy. It would tend to steer private investment into un derdeveloped areas of Asia. Africa and Latin America. He said it would permit con tinued guarantees on investments n underdeveloped areas of apain. Greece and other countries gen erally eligible for technical assist ance. The name of George W. Goe thals is associated with the build ing of the Panama Canal. He was the engineer.
