Their official explanation Barghoorn was freed because of President Kennedy’s “personal concern” But President Kennedy expressed far more than personal concern At his press conference last week he categorically denied the professor was in the Soviet Union on an intelligence mission of any kind Thus he deliberately staked his word and prestige on Barghoorn’s innocence lie also made it clear that the arrest could cultural exupset the change program and jeopardize’ the pending wheat deal The Kremlin obviously understood such plain talk Two distinguished Americans in Moscow at the time also gave the Kremlin something to think about John Steinbeck the novelist and Edward Albee the playwright criticized the arrest expressing shock and indignation What happens now to the cultural exchange program? is-t- hat -

Is this the result of outstanding talent in moviemaking? We have many nice modern theaters in this area where it is a pleasure for our families and young people to attend These movies that should be considered “cheap trash” are unworthy to be shown in As parents our community and Americans we would like to see an effort made to bring wholesome worthwhile and enjoyable movies to this area GARFIELD SCHOOL PTA Foolish Robbers Editor Tribune : I note with considerable interest that during the past year quite a number of “thrift and loan” companies in Salt Lake City have been held up and robbed These are the outfits that charge a minimum of 18 per By Our Readers cent interest and from there up to 30 per cent Whenever I hear of one of these institutions being robbed my heart just bleeds thoughts on Magna’s incorporation election— The results of this election along with the exceptionally high turnout of 884 per cent “degeneration” aroused the ire of the townspeople A job well done by Salt Lake County employes— the sheriff's department fire department garbage collection other county services and especially by the road department helped defeat of the incorporation plan The handbills and Forum letters registering lack of faith and maligning the community were a breach of fair play As one who has lived in Magna 41 years I am proud of Magna and of the people who live here and especially of all who have worked long and hard for betterment and progress of this community Forum Rules Kindness to Tourists Someone should inform these foolish robbers that they would be much better off to start a thrift and loan busi—— ness of

Far from the least was an increase of taxes for dubious reasons known only by a committee for incorporation Asyet and even after the election this committee is still not identified References to Magna

we were patients at St Mark's Hospital in the wake of an automobile accident Time may heal the scars and memories of the accident but we shall never forget what was done for us while in your city We especially wish to thank Mrs Elfreda Anderson whose letter published in The Tribune Forum inspired help from others the Rev Frwin E Welsh of the Southern Baptist Church elders of the LDS church the staff of St Mark’s Hospital including doctors nurses and volunteers to whom we feel we owe our lives MR AND MRS CARROLL ANDRADE Kansas City Mo The President said at his press conference on Thursday: “This program (foreign aid) is essential to the conduct of our foreign policy “and therefore I am asking the Congress of the United States to give me the means of conducting the foreign policy of the United States and if they do not want to do so then they should recognize that they are severely limiting my abilityto protect the interests That is how important I think this program is “I think it is a very dangerous untidy world but we’re going to have to live with it and I think one of the ways to live with it is to permit us to function function us out Then if we don’t the voters will throw “But don’t make it impossible for ns to function by legislative restraints or inadequate appropriations” Mr Kennedy’s words come at a time when the conduct of foreign policy by the United States is largely opportunistic The course Nightmare Vision Holds Nikita in Grip By Theodore Long Frederick ’rof C Barg-hodr- n more probably about the Soviet Union than any! other knows Kremlin’s hands He

1950 before Stalin’s death and Khrushchev’s rise to power most of its conclusions are as pertinent today as they were 13 years ago THE AUTHOR notes sharp differences in the attitudes of the Soviet government and the Soviet people toward the Unit-e- d States Now as ’then the official line is that America is “a plutocracy ruled by a handful of ruthless selfish and wasteful monopolists” with the vast majority of the population held in poverty THE PEOPLE Barghoorn discovered liked Americans because they were “polite” and "cultured” “At first when I heard such statements they puzzled me” “Later Barghoorn writes however I came to believe that what Russians meant by American ‘politeness’ was a degree of respect for human beings as individuals which did not exist in their own society” But behind the Iron Curtain what the people think is not important And sometimes being under a steady propaganda barrage the people may not really know what to think The Kremlin’s “nightmare vision (of America) derives partly from ideology” partly from political cunning and partly from the projection by the isolated and provincial Soviet rulers of their own motives concepts and characteristics to what theyjs regard as their American counterparts” Barghoorn says “But the Soviet image of America is a very real and powerful factor in world politics” KHRUSHCHEV may not be as isolated and provincial as Stalin At least he has traveled in many countries including the United States Nevertheless he is Stalin’s heir — a captive of the nightmare vision few a C Barghoorn has been arrested in the Soviet Union "and charged with espionage President Kennedy publicly has stated that Mr Baghoorn “was not on an intelligence mission of any kind” He was asked at his news conference whether the Soviets may' be seizing innocent Americans “with the hope of somehow extracting political concessions from us” He replied “Obviously they would not be successfuL I wouldn’t attempt to make a judgment as to the conduct of the Soviet Union or what may motivate it from week to week day to day but I am certain — it is quite obvious that if it is based on the presumption you state that it jull not be successful” WHAT IS most disturbing at tiie moment is that despite every effort on the part of this countryto establish friendly relations with the Soviet Union there is no reciprocation by the Moscow government The State Department of course has felt compelled -r- o “postpone” the extension of the cultural exchange program negotiations for the renewal pf which were scheduled to begin next Tuesday Likewise restrictions on the travel in the United States by Soviet-blo- c diplomats have been made The President points out that the Soviet Union keeps 26 per cent of its area “off limits” to the Unit- ed States and that this country is now applying the same percentage It seems more than a coincidence that the Red Chinese are starting trouble in Korea and that the war in South ' Viet Nam is continuing to require the presence of US military forces in larger and larger numbers Ail this indicates that the sources of friction have by no means been diminished has not been charted clearly and the policies vary in different parts of the world Only a few weeks the American people ago were assured that the signing of the Nuclear Test-BaTreaty meant a new era in the relations of this country with Russian Since that time the Soviets have started provocative procedures on the autobahn in and around Bern lin INSTEAD of a peaceful relationship there now aje signs of irritation on both sides Huge sums are being spent for military purposes and while it is considered probable that the Soviets would not venture now to make a surprise attack With nuclear weapons the idea of a limited war of
