•\o Appeasement/
Says Kennedy
To Khrushchev
NEW YORK, lff>—Sen. John F.
Kennedy said today “The next
President must make it clear to
Khrushchev that there will be no
appeasement.”
The Democratic presidential
candidate made the statement in
an article under his byline, copy
right by the Hearst Headline Ser
vice and appearing in the New
York Journal-American.
“In dealing with Khrushchev
there is no Democratic, no Repub
lican way,” said Kennedy.
“An election year may tempt
Khrushchev to try to fish in our
troubled waters, but he would be
well advised to keep out of Am
erican politics—for any interfer
ence on his part would boomerang
on him. He should not mistake
our election debates for national
disunity on the fundamentals of
our policy of resistance to Com
munism.”
“So long as Soviet rockets are
first in the exploration of space,
so long as the Soviet economy I
grows at a faster rate than ours,
so long as we are slow to meet
the challenge of the developing
free nations of Asia, Africa and
Latin America, Soviet power will
be on the ascendance, and Mr.
Khrushchev will treat us with
contempt,” he said.

minee? None, the summer White

conference held by James Hag
erty, press secretary.
Did the President watch the
nomination balloting on television j
early Thursday?
“No,” said Hagerty.
“What is his reaction to Ken- I
nedy’s nomination ”
“He hasn’t got any—he has no !
comment,” said Hagerty.
Did Hagerty have any reaction? j
“No.”
IS THERE ROOM?
NEW YORK, Wt—In an editor
ial, the Wall Street Journal took
a relative view of the speculation
it said is going around whether
the Democratic presidential nomi
nee is big enough for the White
House.
It said: “There has been spec
ulation in recent months about
this question: Is young Jack Ken
nedy big enough for the White
House?
“After reading about his family
on the march—his mother, grand
mother, brothers, sisters, inlaws
and other assorted kith and kin
— we wonder if the question
shouldn’t be put the other way.”

Budget Surplus of Billion
Is Looked For This Year
WASHINGTON, UP)— The gov
ernment next week will announce
a fiscal 1960 budget surplus closer
to one billion dollars than to the
200 million dollars President Ei
senhower forecast in January,
goverment sources reported to
; day.
Revenues have run higher and
federal outlays somewhat lower
I than the figures sent to Congress
in Eisenhower’s budget message.
Those were $78,600,000,000 in rev
enues and $78,400,000,000 in out
lays for the fiscal year that ended
June 30.
Therefore, despite earlier offi
cial prediction that the 1959 steel
strike might throw the budget
into the red, the administration
will turn in its third balanced
budget in seven years.
