It is not necessary for the senator to tell the American people that the Khrushchev visit may very well fail to bring any thaw in the cold war.

The people know that. Could the senator, as America's spokesman, do any better than Mr. Eisenhower to assure that the country would be less vulnerable or more protected? Somehow we doubt it. We will concede that the country might go broke faster under Fulbright, but his panaceas have a habit of petering out. Sixteen years ago he thought he had the answer to everything in the "Fulbright resolution" committing the United States, at the end of a still unfinished war, to join an international organization with power to prevent aggression and preserve peace.

The result was the United Nations and, if that is a fair sample of how Ful-bright's schemes prove themselves thru effective practice, any other of the senator's brainstorms would invite skepticism. be confronted by fierce and delinquent fowl, mostly fried, which, apparently, have fought grimly thru a long and velops wry neck. trouble filled life and are not yet will A congenital 1 ing to yield.

Congress Thursday overrode his veto of the second public works bill, providing expenditures of 1 billion 185 million dollars. The opposition mustered 12 more votes in the House and eight more in the Senate than were needed to provide the two-thirds majority necessary to pass the bill over the President's veto. The measure was repassed in hardly more palatable form than when it provoked the original veto.

On a motion to override that veto in the House, Mr. Eisenhower was saved by the margin of one vote. When the appropriation was recast, with provision for an across-the-boards cut of 2Vz per cent on all items of spending, new and old alike, the President again vetoed it, but this time he failed to prevail for the first time in more than six and one-half years. During the discussion, a voice was heard in the House decrying the description of the measure as a "pork barrel" bill. The speaker, somewhat incongruously, was Rep.

Otto E. Passman of Louisiana, who, as chairman of a subcommittee which annually has passed on foreign aid appropriations, has been one of the strongest critics of these handouts.

At the same convention, Lester Asher, counsel for the state federation, accused the NLRB of "failure to go after crooks and racketeers." But the federation solemnly resolved that the only effective remedy" for corruption and racketeering "must come from within the labor movement itself." The split is obvious.

Eisenhower pointed out that the eventual cost of these projects would add 800 million dollars to future budgets. Now, 800 million is about one-fourth of the current year's foreign aid appropriation, and Mr. Passman observed that, under the foreign aid program, 1,451 new projects are being started all over the world, in contrast to the 67 projects found objectionable by Mr. Eisenhower within the United States. The congressman said that, if the projects at home were to be stopped, the President ought to be consistent and call off all the projects scheduled to be started outside the country.

So it is apparent that foreign aid not only entails enormous outlays in itself, but the dissipation of these funds for the benefit of foreigners, and not for American voters, provides an argument for increased spending at home. For it is hard to defend the thesis that American needs must be slighted, even tho they may not be entirely vital, in order that additional plums may be conferred on foreigners.

In that year the government started to investigate means of controling the parasite which was destroying a valuable fish resource. Mechanical barriers equipped with traps were placed in the streams where the lamprey was found to breed. These proved difficult to maintain during floods. The lamprey by-passed damaged installations to breed upstream. Losses of trout increased.

Lake Michigan, which had 'yielded a catch of 6 million pounds a year, discovered that the trout population had practically been eliminated by 1950. The total catch on the Great Lakes fell from 4.5 million pounds to 1.5 million pounds in the last six years. In 1951 the fish and wildlife service began experimenting with an electrical barrier which produced an electrical field, diverting the lamprey into traps where' they could be destroyed. The latest attack upon the lamprey utilizes two chemicals which are lethal to the larvae of lamprey but are not harmful to other fish. In only one of 11 streams where chemical tests were used last year were lamprey found to survive.

So the promise is that, within a few years, this lake scourge will be wiped out. The government did not think it useful to try to convert this hostile visitor by kindness and hospitality.

Among those specified were a great deal more for public schools, increased armaments, both conventional and advanced; more air bases, foreign development loans on a long term basis, more money for foreign aid, and a huge program of civil defense shelters, so that, from the Fulbright "full arsenal of means," we could all burrow underground. It does not seem to the senator that about 45 billion dollars in defense spending, nuclear programs, and foreign aid is enough; that balanced budgets and fiscal stability are of any account, or that inflation need occasion worry. Yet the army chief of staff, in testifying on the adequacy of defense appropriations, said we had 10 times the power needed to knock out any enemy; the chief of naval operations said that "we cannot afford to overinsure," and the commander of the strategic air command said, "There is no doubt that we bavt a deterrent margin today."

Those can be used by insane or just criminal persons as a guide or even as a lesson on how to do it. We could, if we wished, report under a positive point of view. We should, for instance, report the pure facts of a case, without unnecessary descriptions of inhuman and barbarous cruelties.
