Unolioned Nations Problem ing nations,' so early in their life, to face up to the hard decisions that go with conflicting interests. They have been, having it all black and white and now, suddenly, everything ii murky gray. Yet sooner or later the stubborn realities were bound to encompass them.

He who constantly seeks to split the difference between truth and with two halves falsehood ends pp ' worth nothing. Nor is justice, in the final stage, neutral. It must be applied with an even hand, but at the moment of decision it generally falls one way or the other. In seeking to project their, professed political neutrality into judgments of 'the great world issues, the unaligned have too often corrupted both reason and justice. This process, exhibited most stunningly in their, pitiful responses to Soviet resumption of nuclear tests, has robbed them of the last sheds of a status they never deserved but somehow had : a status as arbiters of world opinion and the repository of world morality. reaction to Their utterances in President Kennedy's the U.N. indicate that too many of the neutrals still do not realize that time is beginning to race against them.

For a man who won the White House on the motto of "Move Forward" and who thrilled the Free World with his early utterances, it is bad enough that his European image should, in the 10th month, of 1961, be shaped like a' very dim question mark.

Macmillan, Adenauer and De Gaulle are too old, and Mr. Kennedy has not yet proved himself old enough. One danger, as Englishmen tell it, is that some unknown leader of suitable maturity and toughness is likely to jump into the Western vacuum. Not long ago Sir Roy Welensky, Premier of Northern Rhodesia, was asked at the London Airport who he thought he was. "I'm and one hundred per cent British," Sir Roy snapped at the reporter. "Now, what the devil are you?" Some such men as this, with positive opinions, may come along to fill the vacuum. ?

Clark of Pennsylvania, a liberal Democrat, who is up for next year. They tell him he would not be expected to carry a heavy work load in the Senate and that it would give him an ideal forum for his views. The latter have suggested, among other things, that the Kennedy Administration propose him for Acting Secretary General oi the United Nations.

Should he choose the elective task, the President can hardly be expected to consider him a useful tool on the internal jtional scene. If Eisenhower Here again events are moving rapidly that Kennedy must coolly make up his own mind what Eisenhower is worth to him in domestic political terms. Many Democrats think the President has already catered far too much to the father figures who manned the Eisenhower regime. Their view is that the young President is only diminishing his own stature without gaining support. The price is too high, they insist, and they d will resist their store of political capital being spent on any more such maneuvers.

The Doctor Says " Suggested Routine For Convalescent Heart Patient By Dr. Harold Thomas jllyman A team of heart specialists, working at the Los Angeles College of Medical Evangelists and the John Wesley County Hospital under the auspices of the National Institute of Health has just issued a "Graded c Ac- - tivity Program for Safe Return to Self-Car- ter a dial ( e af- Myocar- Infarction Coronary v:4KxMt.:x- - Dr. Hyman Thrombosis The purpose of this splendid effort were (1) :to avoid the harmful effects of prolonged bed rest; (2) to restore the patient's in his ability to "get and (3) by means of along"; electrocardiographic monitoring, to prevent "unsafe levels of activself-confiden- ity." The following V modification ce of 'the program, originally designed for hospitalized patients by the investigators, is tentatively suggested for those taken care of at home by their own physicians. It is to begin between the eighteenth and thirtieth days after the attack and proceed gradually, as outlined below. Activity Level 1 (In bed) Wash face. Brush teeth. Eat breakfast. Move with assistance from bed to bedside commode and back. Activity Level 2 (In bed). Repeat each of the following exercises 10 times. Lying flat, take deep breaths. Move shoulders in all directions. Raise right leg 5 times with knee stiff. Raise left leg 5 times with knee stiff. With arms folded across chest, raise shoulders and chest from bed by flexing trunk. Activity Level 3 (In bed). Repeat each of the following exercises 5 to 10 times. Lying first on one side and then the other, raise thigh with knee stiff. Lying on face, raise first one thigh "and then the other with knee stiff, Still lying on face, bend one leg and then the other at knee. Sitting at edge of bed, move shoulders through entire range of motion; bring hands together over head; extend each leg 5 times. Activity Level 4 (Out of bed). Sit at bedside for sponge bath. Put on robe and slippers. Walk forward and return about 35 feet. If comfortably accomplished, receive bathroom privileges. Activity Level 5. As level 4, but substitute trousers for bedclothes and increase length of walk to 100 feet. Activity level 6. Repeat 5 but substitute shoes for slippers. Activity Level 7. Make 5 trips up and down 3 or 4 steps. If comfortably accomplished, visit other rooms on same floor. Here are safeguards that must be observed: Do not start the program or advance from one to another level without the knowledge and consent of a physician Do not start the program until sometime between the 18th arid the 30th day following the acute in-char- attack. Allow -- at least minutes for the accomplishment of each level. Do not perform more than a single activity in any one day. Omit activities on weekends; if you do not feel well; andor if your pulse rate exceeds 100 per minute; and, Don't count on completing the entire program, under four weeks from the date 20 crriginal attack. d, - it1 that has been the center of Heber's social l Lifp fnr rirraHps Tim Snrial is still a first class building, with a famous spring-coi- l dance floor.

Next , RETOLD day, the fatrner made the delivery, but finding no one at home, he left the chiekens in "the front yard in an opencrate. Naturally, they scattered all over the neighborhood and the buyer had a hard time rounding them up. He telephoned the farmer and complained, "That was no way to deliver those chickens I ordered! They got away. I had to chase them all over town. All I could find was eleven." ' , "Is that So?" said the farmer, "Well I think you did pretty well, considering 1 was only able to leave six."

The result was n that the momentous journey to the summit meeting gained an air of chic and bon vivant which still lingers.

Then there are the numerous trial to the air with adballoonists ministration messages, quickly disavowed if they prove unpopular. It is all very well for Senator Mansfield to call it a personal opinion when he plunks for recognition of Red Germany. But Mansfield is majority leader of the Senate. His opinions cannot be private and quarantined.

Senator chairman of foreign relations, is the nearest thing the U.S.A. has ever had to being a British-typ- e "foreign minister."

Again and again, he told his interviewers aftd audiences that he represented the hereditary Democratic line of chief execu- -' tive going back from Truman, F. D. 'Roosevelt and Wilson to Jackson and Jefferson. In city after city, to crowd upon crowd, he taunted Nixon with being the tail end of the sorry procession from Harding and Coolidge, back to Taft and McKinley. A vote for Kennedy, he told us more often than we 'could count, was a vote for his partisan ancestors. ' But, as it's been observed before this, ancestors are all very fine," but they are the. last people with whom a living person would want to live. The President has brought 'this association upon himself. Without doubt, Truman, Roosevelt, and Wilson all had their policies. The trouble is, that Mr. Kennedy, having no policy of his own, clings to these and they all belong to the gterile past. They provide no answer, no leadership for the flaming and fissionable matters of today. "More, the7 President's image is being dulled and distorted by other figures coming between him ' and the gleaming spotlight which should be fixed upon him, and him alone, At this writing, the British newsstands are enlivened by the visage, the millinery, the coiffure, the costumes and the social graces of Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy. The winsome First Lady is 'a sight to gladden the heart of man, American males and few will ever tyre of her pictures.
