(WAW.w.vAv.v,v,vwt. EDITORIALS Ike on Red Aims President Eisenhower said recently he was convinced Russia wants to negoti ate a ban on nuclear weapons tests. The President also said he thought the Russ ians wanted to reach an agreement on gen eral disarmament. This is an important statement, for it puts the U. S. government on record as believing that the Russians are sincerely interested in banning nuclear tests a n d disarmament. If it proves to be an accur ate estimation, it can have a profound ef fect on world development and on the economy of many countries. The United States is currently spend ing more than half its budget estimated at about forty-four billion dollars, on de fense and foreign aid. Some of the foreign aid, of course, is military aid. The President was hopeful that the Russians might agree to a nuclear test ban proposal which he and British Prime Minis ter Harold Macmillan worked out during a meeting at Camp David, Maryland, re cently. Mr. Eisenhower said he was eager to reach some sort of agreement before other nations obtain nuclear weapons, be cause of the prospect that as more nations acquired these weapons the difficulties of banning test and controlling nuclear wea pons will become more and more difficult. In addition, Eisenhower said that the Russians have made concessions recently, in an effort to reach an agreement, and called this promising. Although there are indications that months of hard bargaining lie ahead, even after the United States and Britain pre sented their new formula for bannaing nu clear tests, the President's statement is en couraging, and if the three major nuclear powers reach agreement on banning wea pons and disarmament, it will be a re freshing and profound development for the people of the world. It could be termed the great hope of 1960, and certainly every effort should be made by this government to reach a satisfactory agreement which might prevent a worldwide catasrophe on a scale which the human mind cannot even comprehend." 5 v.v.v.v.v,v.v Down Memory Lane yf YEARS ACO mJ Visitors to the city have been at tracted by the extensive display of whisk ers of various hues and style worn by the men residents.
