Nixon Demands
Platform Show
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (IP)—Vice
President ,Richard M. Nixon chal
lenged his opponent, Sen. John
F. Kennedy, yesterday "to say
exactly where he agrees and
where he disagrees" with the
Democratic ,party platform.
"ThomaS Jefferson would - turn
over in-hig grave, "Nixon told a
noonday crowd in Richmond, Va.,
"if he could see the men who
wrote the Democratic platform."
The vice president returned to
the same line of attack last night
in remarks prepared for a rally
here.
"There has been some talk
around the country that Sen. Ken
nedy really does not agree with
a number of his platform pledg
es," Nixon said. "And I want him
to state his views in exactly the
same way in the North, the East,
the South, the West, so everyone
in every party of America will
clearly underst:. , d his position."
Striking into the South for the
seventh time, Nixon emphasized
heavily what he said were differ
ences in the Republican and Dem
ocratic parties.
"If you want a massive federal
program to come in and weaken
the states, don't vote for us," he
said. adding that the Democrats
stand or that and the Republi
cans sand for stimulation of in
dividual and local enterprise.

president of the United States. He
celebrated with a round of golf
at Burning Tree Golf Club.
As for any • observations about

made none and that "His work

the Charcoßedonod, is now named
Harlem. , An announcement said
the workers had renamed it as a
man executive armed with veto
powers.
Hammarskjold, to a tremendous
ovation from most of the mem
bers in the 98-nation General As
sembly, said it was not the big
powers who need.the U.N., but all
the others.
He retorted in his fighting'
speech: "I shall remain in my
post during the term of my of
fice as a servant .of the organi
zation, in the interests of all
those other nations, as long as
they (he stressed the, word
'they') wish line to do so."
Khrushchev once again led the
Communist bloc delegations in a
demonstration of table-thumping
to signify protest, but the Soviet
leader was smiling at the time.
U.S. Ambassador James J.
Wadsworth hailed Hammar
skjold's reply a statement of "tre
mendous courage" and a "fine au
gury for the future." Wadsworth
labelled Khrushchev's
. proposal
for shaking up the secretariat
"the most ludicrous thing I ever
heard of."
Hammarskjold took the stage
as the Assembly went into its
afternoon session, and at. once
took exception to Khrushchev's
challenge that he "muster up
enough courage" to resign.
Khrushchev has been attacking
Hammarskjold heavily on the
isue of his peace-making activ
ities in the chaotic Congo, where
Soviet policy has received set
backs.
"In this tontext, the representa
tive of the Soviet Union spoke of
courage." the secretary-general
said: "It is very easy to resign;
it is not easy to stay on. It is
very easy to bow to the wish of
a big power. It is another matter
to resist."
Some U.N. delegates had ex
pressed‘ the opinion that Khru
'shchey's powerful attack would
make it difficult for Hammar
'skiold to hang on. Recognizing the
difficulty, Hammarskjold said the
Soviet statement "seems to indi
cate that the Soviet Union finds it
impossible to work with the pres
ent secretary general" and this
might provide a strong reason for
his resignation.
But, he added, the Soviet
leader had made it clear the of
fice would be replaced with a .
machinery which "would make
it impossible to. maintain an
effective executive!'
Khrushchev took the offensive
once again to promote his idea for
a three-man executive, each mem
ber wielding a veto, to take the
place of the semi arv-general. His
speech was unscheduled, and he
spoke under he U.N.'s "right to
reply" procedure.
"To avoid misinterpretation,"
Khrushchev said, 'I want to re
affirm that we do not trust Mr.
Hammarskjold and cannot trust
him."

Guevara
To Negotiate
Sugar Sale
HAVANA (P) The real pur
pose behind Ernesto Che Gueva
ra's forthcoming viist to Moscow
is to negotiate the sale of Cuba's
entire 1961 sugar crop to the Com
munist bloc through a gigantic
barter deal, government sources
said yesterday.
Guevara, Cuban National Bank
chief, leaves for the Soviet Union
soon to take part in the Nov. 7
celebration of the Soviet Union's
October Revolution.
Informants said, however,
Guevara is using the observance
as a cover for his real mission
hopes of talking the- Kremlin
into buying all the sugar Cuba
produces in return for the Com
munist bloc's right to become
this island nation's sole supplier
of imports.
There was no official confirma
tion of the reported plan, but well
qualified Cuban sources say it al
ready is on paper with Guevara
proposing that the Communists
buy all Cuban sugar, not only in
1961, but in years to come.
Sugar experts here said the
reported barter deal could Upset
operations of the world sugar sta
bilization agreement, to which
Cuba subscribes. There have been
growing indications that the Fidel
Castro regime would like to with
draw from the world pact, which
is controlled from sugar head
quarters in London.
Slap Calms Angry 'K'
SAN FRANCISCO (.OP) When
Soviet Premier Nikita IChrushchev
gets mad, "slap him on the back
of his squat, fat neck."
That advice comes from a man
who did just that last year dur
ing the Soviet Premier's visit,
Mayor George Christopher of San
Francisco.
"I noticed that when he thought
he had angered me, he would slap
me on the back and hard, too—
or jab me in the ribs with an el
bow and laugh." the mayor said.
`So I decided to do the same
thing to him, and it worked. But
sometimes it took a lot of slap
ping by both of us."

Nehru Still Urges
For Ike-1C Meeting
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. VP)—lndia's Prime Minister
Nehru still professed hope yesterday for an Eisenhower-
Khrushchev meeting despite a notable lack of enthusiasm
from either of the cold war camps.
Nehru told the United Nat
"has not wholly rejected the
idea."
He asked the General Assembly
to pass the resolution he and four
other neutral leaders have pro
posed, calling 'for Eisenhower to
meet with Soviet Premier .Nikita
Khrushchev to ease world ten
sions.
"I have felt as if I was being
buffeted by the icy winds of
the cold war," the Indian lead
er said. "Coming from a warm
country, I have shivered occa
sionally at these cold blasts."
Australia submitted an amend
ment to the neutralist resolution
proposing a new four-power sum
mit conference as soon as prac
ticable in place of the Eisenhow
er-Khrushchev meeting.
The assembly voted to post
pone until tomorrow morning
further consideration of the issue.
Many delegations added they
wanted to obtain new instruc
tions from their home govern
ments in view of the Australian
amendment.
Nehru stepped on both West
ern and Communist toes in his
speech. Khrushchev applauded
afterwards and called it "a very
good speech." Herter applauded
little and declined comment.
Khrushchev, who spoke ahead
of Nehru, made no direct refer
ence to the neutrals' plea or to
Eisenhower's heavily qualified re
sponse.
The Soviet boss, however, did
attack Eisenhower as a spokes
man for "rotten colonialism" and
denounced the idea that he And
the President could mach agree
ment on disarmament if they
were locked in a room. He said
Eisenhower has shown no desire
for agreement.
Eisenhower, who replied to the
five neutrals Sunday, said he
would meet with Khrushchev only
if adVance negotiations show this
would be fruitful.

TUESDAY. OCTOBER 4. 1960
ons thit President Eisenhower
Kennedy Hits
Farm Policy
SPRINGFIELD, 111. (IP) Sen.
Bohn F. Kennedy said last night
;not
agricultural hard times must
Inot be allowed to develop to the
(point that a "Democratic admin
i
lstration must once again be called
in to bail out the country."
1 "I say it is time to face up to
our farm situation before we
reach the bottom, before the price
,of corn fails any further, before
! any more farms are auctioned in
;distress, before there are any
'more proposals to get rid of the
isurplusses by getting rid of the
fanner," the Democratic presi
dential nominee said.
In a speech prepared for a
party rally, the senator said
"some of the experts are saying
that this campaign is 1928 all
over again.
"For the sake of the farmer,
the worker, the merchant, and the
!teacher for the sake of all those
w ho remember the days of 10-cent
corn and 10-per cent interest -- I
trust will not be 1928 over again
I —l think it will be 1948 over
again."
Kennedy referred to 1928 in
the context of the drop in farm
income which already had start
ed and which economists say
contributed to the Geart De
pression beginning in 1929.
But 1928 was also the year in
which Alfred E. Smith was re
;soundingly beaten for the presi-
Idency, a defeat he blamed largely
on his Catholic religion.
Kennedy was moving in an
area where there was some con
cern over the impact of his Cath
iolic faith.
