He says it's rising rap Idly by "it" meaning Russian power to produce. He adds that "they" claim they'll CATCH UP WITH US by 1964 by "they" meaning the rel atively small group, centering in the Kremlin, that RUNS RUSSIA. Ryan (he's one of the leading Associated Press foreign news an alysts says he thinks the 1964 date is wishful thinking on the part of the Russian ruling group. He adds that the consensus seems to be that they can't catch us in consumer goods production before 1973. It will take them still long r, he thinks, to SURPASS US This, he thinks, is the big ques tion: What will "they" do with it (meaning the power to OUT-PRO PUCE us) if and when they get it? He says they'll have three choices: 1. Military adventuring mean ing plain, old-fashioned wars of conquest. 2. Using their power to PRO DUCE in a bid for world domina tion through enormous invest ments in economic aid to under developed countries Asia, Africa, Latin America, etc. that is, mak ing these, countries strong and also making them ALLIES of So viet Russia. A 3. Giving the Soviet consumers MORE THINGS (food, clothing, gadgets, modern houses and such) thus making them happier with the world as is and dulling their desire for world conquest. Ryan thinks the Russian rulers will throw their RISING POWER TO PRODUCE into a bid for world dominance through making Russian allies of these under developed countries, Which con tain the bulk of the world's pop ulation. Pretty big thinking? Over the heads of us small peo ple? Maybe. But it sounds like good common eense on our part to pay LESS attention from here on to giving everybody something for nothing and MORE attention to strength ening our economy by sound, work-more-and-produce-more poli cies. That might make life in Ameri ca a, Jillle Jess glamorous for us today, but it could make life in!'

Foes Battle Congo Move UNITED NATIONS. N. Y. fAP) Foes of Congolese President Jo eph Kasavubu mounted a last ditch effort today to keep the U. N. General Assembly from seating him and his delegation. But the prospect was that the assembly would vote to seat him anyway, late today or some lime Tuesday. That would give the United States a victory over an Asian-African-Communisl fac tion favoring Kasavubu's bitter rival, deposed Premier Patrice Lumumba. One experienced diplomat said the vote to seat Kasavubu might be as much as 60-20 with 18 ab staining. A day-long debate is ex pected and a special night session may be held. The first four countries on the speakers' list Yugoslavia, Gui nea. Mali and Ceylon have come out against Kasavubu. Kasavubu, who came to New York two weeks ago to press his rase, has said that until he is seated, he will not stale his at titude toward the U. N. concilia tion commission for the Congo.
