What happened? Let's recapitulate. First, we signed tlie nuclear test ban treaty which, for rea sons of their own, whatever their reasons were, the Kremlin Rus sians wanted. Then We agreed to sell them wheat which they wanted and NEED ED. So Being communists The Kremlin leaders jumped to a typical communist conclusion. Their conslusion was this: "These Americans are SOFT. "We cafi BLUFF THEM." So they tried the Berlin auto bahn bluff. It didn't work. We stood pat and told them to bring on their bears. So they called off the bluff, That appears to be about the long and the short of it. This incident should teach us a lesson on how to handle commu nists. They must be handled as one handles nettles if one wishes to come off unscathed and un stung. How does one handle a nettle without getting stung? " Aaron Hill, in his Verses Writ ten on a Window in " Scotland, gave us the recipe some three centuries ago. He put it this way: Tender-handed stroke a nettle And it sting you for your pains; Grasp it like a man of mettle, And it soft as silk remains.

Mak Pair Reaches U.S. After Spy Trade NEW YORK (UPI) A Roman Catholic priest imprisoned (or 23 years by the Soviet Union and a young graduate student arrest ed in Russia two years ago re turned to their native American soil Saturday in exchange for two accused Soviet spies. The Rev. Walter Ciszek, 58, was addressed as "father" Saturday for the first time in more than two decades as he greeted news men and well-wishers at Idlewild International Airport.

The paratroopers suffered no casualties in the "eagle" type op eration, so dubbed because of the way the highly - mobile force swoops down out of the skies. American military sources said the operation was the first in which Vietnamese specially train ed for the eagle anti-guerrilla warfare strikes went into action. Previously, troops were selected only as the need for such an op eration arose.

His complexion was sal low and he walked slowly with f slight stoop. When asked how he felt, he said simply, "I'm all right." The two men whom the Soviets accused of spying were ushered swiftly past a crowd of newsmen into a terminal waiting room for a joyous reunion with their fami lies and friends. Some of them had feared they would never see the Americans again. Father Ciszek, in fact, was re turning from the "dead." The Shenandoah, Pa., priest was de clared legally dead by Schuylkill County authorities several years ago. . The two former prisoners were swapped Friday for Ivan Egorov, a Soviet employe of the United Nations, and his wife, Aleksan- dra, who were arrested in their New York apartment last July and charged with espionage. The Egorovs arrived in Moscow aboard a Soviet plane by way of Copenhagen Saturday. Both-Father Ciszek and Maki nen were reluctant to discuss their imprisonment. Makinen, ar rested in 1961 while touring Rus sia, made one oblique reference to "my confession" but declined to elaborate.

(UPI) - New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller Sat urday challenged Arizona Sen. Barry Goldwater to a series of de bates on how tlie Republican Party could best deal with the vital issues of the day. Goldwater, en route to Eugene, told newsmen in San Francisco he would be willing to have such a "discussion" with Rockefeller if both men became candidates for the GOP presidential nomination and if Rockefeller "would spend his time discussing tlie Kennedy Administration." Earlier, Rockefeller told news men he believes that former Vice President Richard M. Nixon is a candidate for the 1964 GOP presi dential nomination. .The New York governor Issued his challenge to Goldwater to de bate the issues in a speech pre pared for delivery before the 13- state Western Republican Confer ence. This in my opinion would greatly sharpen public interest in the Republican Party and what it stands for, and accelerate the achievement of a Republican con sensus," Rockefeller said. Rockefeller was asked what he felt Nixon's position at tlie 1964 convention would be. He replied: I think he's a candidate. "He has been making consist ent comments on international af fairs and taking a greater part in national and party affairs, Rock efeller said. "He sounds like a candidate." In reply to another question, Rockefeller denied "absolutely" that he and Nixon had reached any agreement on joint action at the Republican National Conven- tion which will be held in San Francisco next July. He said four years ago Nixon, because of his seven years as vice president, "had a commit ment Irom tlie party organiza tion In become the presidential nominee. Nixon lost by 119,000 votes to President Kennedy. I don t tli ink today anyone has firm commitment from the party organization," Rockefeller said. He said this also was true of Goldwater, and pointed out that the delegates to the convention had not been selected. Of his two-way race with Gold- water, Rockefeller said that if the convention were held today "I'd be concerned, but it's October." Hurled Eggs Fail To Hit Mine.

As of July 1, 1963, there were sales tax, and only three states that Under tlie press of ever-increasing spending, the states have turned in varying degrees to first cigarette tax. Cigarette taxes are levied in Carolina and Oregon. The cigarette cents per pack in 11 states to two D.C. Sales taxes have an average Pennsylvania the highest at five On the West Coast, both Washington and Oregon have a four per cent sales tax while Nevada like Oregon, does not have one. Gasoline taxes are levied by all of the 50 states. Rates range from five cents to eight cents per gallon with 25 states collecting six cents to seven cents and 18 states at least seven cents per gal lon. At the last session of the legislature, a four cent a package cigarette tax was proposed which would raise $16 million. This pro posal was dumied in the hectic closing weeks or the Legislature mainly out of fear that it would be referred by the people as it had been before. Two different sales lax bills the legislature, but neither of them Each was predicted on a three per cent sales tax. Hit 1.132 was designed to provide a three per cent sales tax plus a nine per cent net receipts income taxes and increased dependency allowances.

A convoy of 30 vehicles carrying about 150 men left the Helmsted checkpoint near the West Ger man border at 5:02 p.m., report edly with orders to reinforce the convoy If it had not been allowed to move.
