This could be a risky route to travel. To begin with, the newest public opinion polls shows the President's popularity only slightly below recent record high levels. Secondly, the lawmakers might remember that neither the Republican nor the Democratic rank and file candidates won much of an endorsement at the polls in 1956 or earlier elections. Mr. Eisenhower was the only one for whom there was great and widespread enthusiasm. Those who think this enthusiasm has now waned do not appear to offer much striking evidence. If they cut themselves adrift from the President, even though he be a "lame duok," they may be doing more harm than good to their future po- A good many capital observers are declaring these days that President Eisen- hower's leadership over the members of Congress is faltering and they are. going their own way. They say he isn't assertive enough in promoting his program, that he doesn't crack the whip on Capitol Hill, that his steep budget has cost him popular support and that, in any event, he is a "lame in duck" who can't run for re-elect- ion 1960. Consequently, they add, the lawmakers are following their traditional course under such circumstances. They are falling into factions and allowing themselves to be pressed heavily by local and regional rather than national concerns. It is said, too, that when they climb a Words of Peace The world over, no matter what religion may prevail in different places, Pope Pius XII is recognized as a dedicated, highly able leader of his own spiritual cause, and as a moral man wedded to peace for all mankind. leadership, the fact remains that on the basis of his record he was last fall by a margin of 9,500,000 votes. Since the voters did not shower any such heavy rain of votes upon the senators and representatives who faced them, one might imagine some at least would have doubts about the wisdom of cutting ties re-elect- "simple, informal, unfeigned expression of good will as a key instrument for the settlement of international disputes."

But it isn't easy to separate a man and his program. Just possibly, voters may expect Congress to support him on this whether or not he exercises strong initiative.

The Pope's words seemed carefully chosen. He spoke of the President's By PETER EDSON NEA Washington Correspondent WASHINGTON (NEA) Forty years ago this month the Russian revolution began with a riot for more bread in Petrograd. This was the first revolution, that overthrew the Czar. It was a revolt of moderate socialists and liberals. Lenin was in exile in Switzerland at the tifrie. Trotzky was in New York and Stalin was in the fourth year of Siberian prison camp. , n Their leadership of the second, to overthrow the provisional, democratic government set up under Alexander Kerensky, was eight months later. In this period, from now until the l&ter anniversary on Nov. 7, people will be reading and writing arid experting a great deal about the past four decades of Russian communism. A PERIOD OF 40 YEARS isn't a lon time in history. Anyone who was an adult in World War I can remember I the Russian revolutions. There are old Bolsheviks who took prt in them who are still alive and in power. All of them operate as though believe are real leaders of the masses and the they they I have their full support. But the third generation is now growing up under communism. Today, what is considered he most signifi- -' cant fact about the Russian revolution of 40 years ago is that it has not produced a new Soviet man. Basically, say those who are closest, observers of the Russian scene, the Russian people stiH have the same old Russian mind with the same old Russian qualities. They may be sick of or bored by communism. They may be privately disillusioned by the Jies they have been told about the revolts in East Germany, ;Poland and Hungary. But the Russians themselves are not considered ready for a third revolution. SINCE WORLD WAR II much hs been made of Russia's technical and educational advances. It has been assumed from this that the more educated Russians would soon be ready to overthrow their Communist masters. Two facts are said to make this unlikely. The first is the rigid discipline in the Soviet educational system. People need ' jobs to live. Students who do not submit to Communist discipline can. be thrown out of the universities and their means of livelihood destroyed. That keeps down intellectual rvoJt. Also, higher education in itself is riot a guarantee of revolt against oppression. It is recalled ihat the Germans of the 1930's were as highly educated as any people in Europe. In spite of it, they followed Hitler and submitted to Nazi dictatorship. ;. ; Ideas that communism has been changing particularly since the death of Stalin are now seen to be based more on hope than on reality. There was no following the Khrushchev speech the Party Cona and been there no has gress year ago since, say Russian analysts. THERE HAVE BEEN certain internal changes within the U.S.S.R. The newly announced prograni to decentralize control of raw materials and industrial production is considered of utmost importance. It Is taken to mean that the Russian leaders are beginning o learn they can' not control everything from Moscow. Internationally, communism is considered what it was under Stalin. Its greatest problem today just is seen aa Eastern Europe, where there is a different situation in every country Poland, Hungary, Yugoslav and East Germany. It was only when the Russians began to relax a little in "the new spirit of Geneva" that they got "trouble in Poland and Hungary. Now they have relmposed full Stalinist controls in Hungary and the Russian army remains in Poland under the Warsaw pact. , These are the developments that lead historians of Russian communism to the conclusion that no easy solutions will be found to its problems, and that the West will have to continue to live with it, as it has in the past 40 searchlights, others staring at the ground. Allan could understand nothing of what Billon was saying, but he could at least make out that he was neither threatening nor pleading; he was advising, exhorting, warning. There was no cajolery in his voice, but much sternness and resolution. He spoke for perhaps a minute, and then called for Camille Fernana. There was a pause, and then a beautiful strong, voice answered from somewhere Respiratory Infections ' By WILLIAM BRADY, M.D. How does one catch smallpox? Measles? Scarlet fever?
