NO TIME FOR BLUNDERING
The time for
blundering is passed.
the time is at hand when
need the leadership that
not blunder in a crisis.
nations are in a crisis
tated by Russia’s
bid to take over with her
munism and by her
on prosecuting a cold war
its logical communistic
sion.
We are blundering badly
cur current dealings with
sia. In the first place
timed Vice Presidents
visit to Russia poorly. We had
him there as our ambassador
good will, while we here in
United Skates were
a “Captive Nations Weeks”
which observance was a
at Russia.
Bidding for good will in
sia while generating
,sian sentiment here shows
1 W certain degree of
our part. The Russian
Ipifality was not so bad in
cf our obvious blunder in
premise.
We blundered again when
after we had invited
Khrushchev to be the guest
our nation at President
hewer’s behest, a sector of
press was recommending
"lukewarm welcome.”
have him come at all unless
extend our traditional warm
welcome which has been accord-
ed to so many dignitaries from
abroad?
Wo should have given
warm welcome not because
believe in communism but - ■ ■
cause we respect our finer tra-
ditions, Khrushchev’s visit will
no more settle the internation¬
al issues between communism
and democracy than Vice-Pres-
irlent Nixon.’s
Both of these visits are but
bold attempts to arrive at an
international understanding,
the nations are to be spared
the horrors of an atomic war.
Both visits are worth all that
is invested in them and cer-
tainlv should not bo spoiled
a calculated “luke-warmness.
Better no visit at all than
spoiled one.
We do not have to visit. Again
we blundered when some of our
newspapers spoke slightly a nd
lightly of our invited guest. One
writer called him the “dumpty
dictator.” This amounts to a
species of rudeness which is be¬
neath the dignity of a great
nation. Only a fool would try
to make light of Khrushchev
and Russia.
Khrushchov needs to see this
county at its best and we are
not at our best trying to be
hospitable and lukewarm. at
the same time, nor are we -at
cur best calling the
head of a mighty nation names.
We should retain our great na¬
tional pride even though Rus¬
sia is -outstripping us in the
i-sna^e race. That she is out-
4^/pping but us because is not her our fault Con-
our o\v n .
gress is packed with .m segrega-
tion specialists specialists instead of
statesmen who put
above all. Race prejudice 13
weakening this country.
I was glad to see
chev visit our great country. I
would rather be behind in the
space race in the American
way than to be ahead in the
Russian way. America has a
certain basic regard for rights,
whereas Russia only has re¬
gard for what is expedient.
Right will outlive expediency.
I could eat and sleep
Khrushchev indefinitely
still be a democrat. Wlhen I
was offering my course in race
relations at Virginia Union,

How can we ever prepare to
