There’s No Other Way Many citizens of the world, over the past ten years, have developed a psychosis akin to alcoholism, and that is the inevitablism of a nuclear war. Few people will talk about it, as the subject is not pleasant at all. But if asked, they answer that they feel war is inevitable. An alcoholic arrives at the place where he has two choices—continue to drink himself to death, or accept the fact that he is afflicted wih a psychosis, seek treat meint, and be cured. The world has arrived at the same place. Nations can continue to arm themselves, stockpile weapons that will destroy millions, spend themselves into bankruptcy, and then press the button. Or, they can sit down with sincere thoughts of peace, forget the differences of the different “L4ms”, at least as far as armament is concerned, and hash out the problems that confront them in the areas of disarmament. An argument in favor of disarmament is not necessarily a pacific attitude. Communism will have to be beaten, if this country is to continue to exist. But do we have such little confidence in our own beliefs that we feel down deep that war is the only way to win? Capitalism can beat communism. It is being done today. In the past 24 hours, about 700 people slipped across the various borders from East Germany into West Germany. They did so because they could see tangible proof, through the Iron Curtain, that despite what the Communist bosses might say, they were not better off in East Germany. And Communists, despite their differences on many points, are at least intelligent enough to know that a nuclear war is nothing but suicide. The first thing for the people of the world to do, is to decide whether they want their children to have any world or life to live in that world. Then to shake off the psychosis of inevitable war that haunts so many people. Once they become convinced that war is not inevitable, they can do some constructive thinking toward true disarmament, and turn their attentions to other fields of endeavor. Wars and weapons of the past have just been “social drinking” for the world. Now we are at the place where we have to make a decision whether we will become confirmed “alcoholics” in the thoughts of imminI ent war, or whether we want to shake off the past few years and look to better days ahead. And do we have any choice?

Vet Correspondents Write Os Campaigns

EDITORS NOTE: Two Unit- > ed Press International correspondents who covered the presidential candidates last week have returned to Washington. ' Here are their impressions at the end es the sixth week of the campaign. By MERRIMAN SMITH United Press International WASHINGTON (UPI) — Vice President Richard M. Nixon is convinced that ultimate victory in the presidential race will be forged in the last three weeks of the campaign. The Republican nominee at this point feels his chances of beating Sen. John F. Kennedy are about 50-50. While he freely predicts victory at party rallies, Nixon privately seems to feel that neither candidate now can safely claim such key states as New York, California, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Michigan and Ohio. Nixon’s conviction that the final three weeks will tell the story is based on his experience. This was the pattern of timing when he ran for the House and Senate in California, and he believes the same thing holds true in the national election. Heeds Advisers Nixon’s advisers jolted him out of this timing to some extent when the Quemoy - Matsu issue first arose with Kennedy in their second TV debate here on Oct. 7. The vice president wanted to swing hard at Kennedy on this one, but his first inclination was to wait until later. His advisers argued that issues are highly perishable and he would lose any advantage he had by not pressing the attack immediately. The coming week should see Nixon opening up on other issues. Under his timetable, he has reached the point for pulling out all the stops, firing all the barrels. Nixon is stepping up his attacks on Kennedy, but thus far his strongest direct blows have been in the field of foreign policy.! The final weeks of the campaign should see greater Nixon emphasis on domestic matters. The vice president feels he has gotten the best of Kennedy on the Quemoy-Matsu argument so far. And he is not expected to ease up appreciably on this issue. Praises Ike Aside from Quemoy-Matsu. another striking thing about Nixon's campaign in the past week has been his increasing praise of President Eisenhower. Nixon, after starting out with relatively restrained references to the Chief Executive, has become positively rhapsodic on the point. One of his strongest applausegetters in most crowds is his line stoutly defending Eisenhower from criticism for not having attracted as much world interest recently as Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev and Cuban boss Fidel Castro. How is Nixon doing overall? His crowds are getting larger. He had a spectacular night crowd Saturday in Springfield, 111., more than 20,000. Some Republicans claimed 40,000, but GOP leaders in the area spoiled the effect somewhat by forecasting 100,000 the day before his arrival. Speech crowds of this size are not developing for either candidate. A Nixon campaign prognosis for this week: Tougher and tougher. By WILLIAM ‘THEIS United Press International WASHINGTON (UPI) — Sen. John F. Kennedy thinks the campaign tide is. turning in his favor. The Democratic presidential nom : inee is starting the seventh week

The Other Day Wc got to talking about Chain Reaction, and it came out that the first thing most people think about when chain reaction is men- L. R. tioned is atomic Zintsmaster energy, which is. of course, the ultimate in chain reaction. The’ simplest chain reaction is the one’ set in motion by each one of our own actions in life. We hadn't thought of it that way before, but when you stop to think about it, there just isn't any one thing we do as individuals that doesn't set up some kind of chain reaction. It’s almost frightening to think about the long chain of bad, events thai can start from just one bad action. So, for our part, we strongly renew our resolution to try to start only the best kind of chain reactions, and we hope our business actions reach out to each one of you with the best kind of effects.

of his campaign with new confidence. He feels that Vice President Richard M. Nixon failed to score in their first three television debates and this has damaged both Nixon's argument of “experience” and his reputation as a skilled debater. Kennedy is more hopeful than ever that he will carry New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Michigan, where he campaigned last week. He believes his whistle-stop trip through Michigan improved Democratic chances in that state. The Democratic candidate now is hitting Nixon hard and often in his speeches. During his sixth week, Kennedy employed a stinging brand of ridicule that both steelworkers and students ap-

plauded. Charges Iniffennee Like Nixon, Kennedy tailored his speeches to suit his widely varying audiences. But mainly he hammered the idea that Nixon and the Eisenhower administration had been “indifferent” to unemployment and the other economic problems. Earlier, he tried on the mantle of the late Franklin D. Roosevelt at the "Little White House” In Warm Springs, Ga., where FDR worked and finally died In 1945. HRiere and in Columbia, S.C., he boldly spoke up for civil rights for Negroes — and drew applause. At week’s end, Kennedy claimed that Nixon had "retreated” from his stand that the off-shore China islands of Quemoy and Matsu must be defended “on principle” against Red aggression. Kennedy’s claim was based on a White House announcement that both Nixon and President Eisenhower are in agreement that Quemoy should be defended only as

part of an overall defense of an attack on Formosa and the Pescadores. Aneal Fuiatloaa After their second TV debate, Kennedy felt Nixon benefitted by using the “emotional" side of the Quemoy-Matsu issue — namely, that this country should never surrender one inch of free soil to aggressive Communism as a matter of principle. In the third debate, Kennedy injected some emotional argument into his stand by saying that no American boy should be sent to defend "two little rocks” which he said top military leaders considered "indefensible.” The net of all this appeared to be that Kennedy, who suffered ■ some from his technique of short, I heavily intellectual speeches, wasi broadening his attack with better effect. Kennedy drew wildly enthusiastic crowds in the steel and coal industrial areas of Ohio sthd Pennsylvania and had good audiences in traditionally Republican areas of Michigan and the other

states. The senator was understood to be heartened by aU this and to feel that he is increasingly forcing Nixon to run on the GOP record.
