do not bc .ieve that the Ru ;ian potentate

would have- you believe.
Kfiru hchev i* nobody fool He didn't

Khrushchev- fry now must have

So is his visit really necessary, a
believe?
Certainly the visit of the Run ;ian lead-
er will propose problems and there is an

some
element of risk involved But there was
an element of risk in Nixon's visit to
Russia P>o, and m the visit of other Rus-
sian leaders to the United States in the
past.
While Khrushchev undoubtedly has a
complete file on the United Slates and
is aware of what, this country is doing,
we might do well to consider that old
i . ir < )r e picture i worth a thousand
words "
By tic- same token one visit to this
country, one in-person look at the U S
and what make; it the great country that
it is, could create much more wheel-
turning in the hack of Khrushchev
mind than all of the very same informa-
tion that hr- has rereived second hand
WV do not believe the visit will do any
harm It may do some good . hut it is
not likely to change the course of history
to any great extent, either.

It all depends on what a man’s

My position is. and under-
stand I'm not defending it, I figure
a man < an take a position without
defending :t. is that if a man feels
like keepir g busy, he ought to,
and if he feels like loafing, he
ought to, if he can get by with it
When Edison perfected the light

to a man's switching it on and
opening up a newspaper and sit-
ting back and enjoying himself

me getting -o busy I don’t have
