To World Is Victory of
Communism Without War

Vice President Richard Nixon
says the greatest danger to the
world is “not war, but victory for
Communism without war.”

persons attended.
The United States, he said, must
“speak only when it is ready to
act, to keep the peace without
surrender.”
And he asserted, “no nation in
the world would be neutral today
without the power of the United
States.”
Nixon listed what he called les
sons the nation has learned un
der (Democratic President Ken
nedy the last eight months. He
said Kennedy’s speeches were elo
quent, and the policies discus
sed in them were all right.
“But he spoke big and then
was not prepared to act big.”

WRONG CAB ...
MEMPHIS, Tenn UH — About
a week ago, Katie Cavallo had
to go to a hospital for a few days.
She offered a friend, Juanita
Kerns, the use of her car.
Mrs. Kerns picked up Mrs.
Cavallo at the hospital yesterday
and Mrs. Cavallo asked: “Whose
car is this?”
Mrs. Kems somehow had bor
rowed the wrong oar. It had been
reported stolen but police
straightened everything out with
no charges.
Russians Jam the Airwaves
MOSCOW Uh — Western radio
newscasts which mentioned the
explosion of the Soviet Union’s
new super-bomb were drowned
out tonight to Soviet jammers.
The jamming was the most ex
tensive in recent months. In some
cases entire wavebands were
blocked off from Soviet listeners.
There has been no mention of
the blast here.

aU his life to the development of

Bashir Receives
Rousing Welcome
After His Trip to VS.
KARACHI, Pakistan UR —
Ahmad Bashir arrived home Sat
urday and assured his country
men that his high-style trip to
the United States has not given
him a big head—or big ideas.
They had feared it might.
“I would not change my pro
fession," he said. MI am proud
of it, and I will continue driving
my essael.” /
But the smiling camel-cart
driver was still getting the VIP
treatment, even though he is back.
U S. Ambassador William M.
Rountree was among the crowd
at the airport that greeted him
with shouts “aindabad!” — long
live. -jPf
On hand, too, were Bashir’s
wife and four children.
Bashir came back alone, keep
ing tiie promise that he would
not bring back an American wife.
As a Moslem he’s entitled to more
than one if he desires.
Bashir's wife stood in a comer,
hiding her face with her veil. It
is not customary for Pakistanis
to talk to their wives in ptdblic,
and the couple avoided meeting
each other in the presence of out
siders.
But the camel driver said he
had brought her a present.
“It is a secret, he said. “Why
should I tell folks what I have
brought for my wife? She will
know when I reach my hut.”
Bashir said He was happy to
learn that his camel has recover
ed from the shock of his master’s
long absence.
And That’s A Promise!
