Show An Incredible Feat EPSON IN WASHINGTON Roving Diplomat Plays 'In Tougher League' Now TUESDAY, APRIL 30, 1957 PROVO, UTAH COUNTY, UTAH, BY PETER EDSON NEA Washington Correspondent President Eisenhower's WASHINGTON (NEA) P. James Richards cabled back to Ambassador Special one on his after stop swing through the Washington Middle East to sell the Eisenhower doctrine: "I'm playing in tougher league now and batting average beginning to slump." This has been the exception rather than the rule on Richards' trip. By and large, Washington officials are more than pleased with the former South Carolina congressman's first mission as a roving diplomat. The ful story of the Richards mission has not been made public and it probably won't be. Privately, State Department officials have been keepa ing box score on the commitments which Richards has made for U.S. aid to Middle East countries he has visited. These figures are not being released. To do so might involve the United States in charges of playing favorites 5y giving more aid to one country than to its neighbors. AS AN EXAMPLE, an Arab broadcast recently put out the propaganda that only one million dollars' worth of U.S. aid had been promised Lebanon, while Israel was to" Eisenhower's Legislative Program Most of the complaints against Congress for inaction in 1957 have tended to lay the blame on the administration's failure to press hard for its programs. But evidently Sen. Lyndon Johnson, Senate majority leader, takes the criticisms as if directed primarily at the lawmakers. He cites some figures to refute the charge 229 separate bills and resolutions passed by Congress, with an average of four and a half a day up to the Easter recess as against three 'and a half in 1955 and still fewer in 1953. The critics appear to be unimpressed with mere statistics. They insist that only two major bills have passed, the Eisenhower Middle East doctrine, a resolution, and the measure extending corporate and excise taxes. The great bulk of the year's backlog of legislation still rests in committees. The Senate, though on a big economy kick, hasn't got around to approving a single appropriation proposal for the 1957-5- 8 Dulles In Hot Water Some might argue that congressional inactivity actually is a good thing, that In backing down somewhat on his ban on U.S. newsmen going to Red China, Secretary of State Dulles did not exhibit much grace or, for that matter, logic. He said a "limited number" of reporters would be allowed to enter mainland Ghina, but he chided the nation's newspapers for not coming up with any good ideas as to how a selected few might be government need not be measured by bills passed, and that in any event Congress is often accused of approving far too many "do-nothin- g" period. there are periods when the quality of It is almost certainly true that the law- in any session pass too many makers measures, though congressional and other reforms could eliminate the necessity for consi'derable numbers of them. Major bills are something else. A good many would also say there is some sense in the idea that Congress and the administration do not have to justify their existence every year by whipping legislation through the mill at a great . chosen. There seems to be no reason in the world why the country's publishers and editors should assist Dulles to this extent. The evidence suggests that he is trying to get off an unpopular, weakly held position, namely, the Red China ban, and the shift to a "limited number" is simply a g device. It seems to say that a "partial clearing" of the conditions that required the ban has now occurred. In fact things are about as they were when it was first imposed. There is no particular logic in letting a few newsmen enter China, hence no especially sensible way for either Dulles himself or the newspapers to choose candidates. By his present proposal the secretary now has conceded his original position was untenable. The only sane thing to do is go whole hog and remove all restrictions on American news coverage in Red China. But in this particular instance the Eisenhower administration has set itself several legislative goals in such fields as foreign aid, civil rights, aid to education and small business, and so on. Observers looking at Congress are bound to note any wide discrepancy between what the lawmakers are doing and what the President and their own leaders have suggested they L If they are tackling a program, then the gauge is what happens to the program, not a Geiger counter report on the number Attilio By MRS.

There is nothing wrong with that advice. Only someone ought jo tell husbands to offer their wives some incentive and encouragement along the way. If a man refuses to talk shop to his wife and let her know the Important things about his work, how can he expect her to keep interest in his career? If a husband doesn't bother to try to seH his wife on whatever leisture-tim- e activities he most enjoys, haw can he blame her for not being more companionable? If a husband doesn't show his wife that he is proud to introduce her to his friends and that he has complete confidence in her as a hostess, he shouldn't be surprised if she fails to grow in gracious-nes- s and charm and self -- confidence. HE MUST NOTICE HER . If a husband never seems to notice when his wife looks pretty or ha on a new dress or has her hair done in a different way, how is she expected to know that her looks are important to him? And if a man grumbles every time a man spends money on if not shocked he be she clothes, begins to look dowdy. ought A wife can't keep in step with her husband through the years unless he is. willing to pick her up when she stumbles, encourage her when the going is rough, and pause now and then to pay her a compliment.

Some countries are bigger than others and some are more strategically located. Such countries might naturally get more military or economic assistance. But this has to be explained. In the case of area developments, involving joint projects that cover several counties, total aid figures can be given without stirring up any rivalries. THUS IN BAGHDAD, Richards was able to announce that'a sum of $12,575,000 might be made available" to develop railroads, highways and1 communications in the Baghdad pact countries Turkey, Iran, Iraq and Pakistan. The original plan was thai Richards could complete his tour in six weeks! This would put him back in Washington May 1. There have been unforeseen delays, however, and the Richards mission had to take a few days rest at Asmara, Eritrea, after visiting 11 countries. Present indications are that Richards will not be back before May 10, after visiting Israel, Greece, Tunis and Morocco. If he also is invited to visit Jordan, Egypt and Syria, his return might be delayed till May 15 or later. The first 11 countries visited were Lebanon,. Libya, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Ethiopia and Sudan, in that order. Yemen and Sudan made no decision on endorsement of the E isenhower doctrine and no mutual assistance agreements were made with them. This was not due to any antiAmerkan feeling. The principal factor was that the two governments are both so inexperienced in foreign aiiairs tney nave no iirm policies. IN ALL BUT ONE of the first 11 countries visited there were strong declarations against communism. Afghanistan refrained from such a declaration because of her isolated position right up against the Russian border and her established policy of neutralism. In all of the countries visited on the first part of the Richards mission there were strong declarations in support of the United Nations, independent sovereignty, nonintervention in the affairs of other governments and rejection of aggression from any source. These declarations are considered as important as the declarations against communism. But the last leg of the tour is the hard part.
