SPUTNIK OVER BARUCHISTAN
Like an unheralded sputnik Mr. Bernard Baruch
turned up ait the Book and Author Luncheon in New
Work one day recently and uttered a few eloquent
beeps of his own. His message, which was a warning
(“If America ever crashes, it will be in a two-tone
convertible.”), was doubly effective for its vivacity.
No expert “ifs” and “buts” cluttered its brief sen
tences. We offer a few samples here, under headings
we feel to be appropriate:
Economics—“The cost of preserving the peace is
infinitely less than the cost of fighting a war.”
Coexistence—“I for one will never concede that
we cannot do as much in the defense of our freedoms
as any potential enemy may be doing to destroy these
freedoms.”
World Politics—“Sputnik is more than a satellite
hurtling through space, more than a warning of lead
ership jeopardized and security imperiled. Sputnik
represents the test of democracy.”
Morals—“Do we discipline ourselves to protect
our freedoms? If we do not, we will bear the far
harshers disciplines which our enemies will impose
upon vis.”
Affirmation—“We can overcome our mistakes,
our delays, our incompetence, but this requires hard
work and putting first things first.”
Moscow has shown its intention to let sputnik
carry a powerful message to the Communist, the neu
tral, and the Western world. But Moscow never meant
what Americans such as Mr. Baruch have heard it
say. We thank him for getting the signal so clear and
transmitting it with characteristic candor.

progress.
2. Eisenhower may go to the
Dec. 16-18 Paris NATO council
meeting after all. When he was
stricken, the State Department
'said it was assumed the President
would toe unable to attend.
3. The President presided at the
White House Thanksgiving din
ner. With him and the First Lady
in the family dining room for por
tions of a 40-pound- turkey were
their four small grandchildren
and the younsters’ parents, Army
Maj. and Mrs. John Eisenhower.
4. James C. Hagerty, the White
House press secretary, reported
that in "his non-medical opinion
the President is having much less
speech difficulty—the only ab
normality his doctors noted after
his seizure. Hagerty said he found
it hard to believe how much im
provement there has been in Ei
senhower’s speech.
5. The doctors sent, word to
newsmen, thru Hagerty, that they
have discovered no evidence that
the President has arteriosclerosis,
or hardening of the arteries. The
physicians gave that reply to a
reporter’s question’ whether ar
tery hardening is an underlying
cause of the brain artery blockage
Eisenhower suffered.
The doctors made that report
as the U.S. Public Health Service
announced granting $58,000 to fi
nance a study dealing with evolu
ation of the effectiveness of anti
coagulant drugs in preventing
strokes.
Eisenhower has been taking
such drugs—intended to prevent
■blood clotting—since his 1955
heart attack. The health service
said the new study is concerned
specifically with prevention of
cerebral strokes, rather than with
treatment after onset.

GI Charged With
Strangle Murder
Of Japanese Girl
YOKOHAMA, Japan, —Spe
cialist Gregory J. Kupski of De
troit, charged by the U.S. Army
with the strangulation murder of
a Japanese girl, is under military
psychiatric examination, his de
fense counsel said today.
The counsel, Capt. James R.
Robinson, 34, Fort Collins, Colo.,
would not elaborate on the dis
closure.
Robinson spoke at a 20-minute
news conference. The 23-year-old
soldier, who the Army says has
confessed the crime, was at his
side, neatly attired in a freshly
pressed uniform.
“I can’t speak too much Japan
ese,” were the only words Kupski
said in answer to a barrage of
questions.
Kupski has been/ charged with
“unpremeditated murder” in the
death of Zazue Eikawa, 25, whose
nude body was found in a Yoko
hama alley Nov. 17. The charge
carries a maximum Army penalty
of life imprisonment.
No clue to whether Japan or
the United States will take juris
diction was given. Robinson salid
“the decision lies with the gov-,
emments concerned.” Both he
and Kupski feel either nation
would provide a fair trial, he add
ed. The maximum Japanese pen
alty is death.
Robinson said the Army has
granted permission for Kupski to
re-enact the crime for Japanese
police, but said he did not know
if this will be done.
