To Khrusehev
FromMacmillan
By The Associated Press
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. —
British Prime Minister Harold
Macmillan plans to lay before So
viet Premier Nikita Khrushchev an
urgent appeal to break down bar
riers now preventing discussion of
dangerous world problems, authori
tative sources reported Wednesday.
Macmillan, playing a key role
in Western strategy, addresses the
U.N. General Assembly Thursday
in advance of a face-to-face meet
ing with the Soviet leader. The in
formants said his aim is to sal
vage something from this historic
loth session and prevent it from
ending in disastrous diplomatic
failure.
Furious diplomatic activity pre
ceding his appearance indicated it
will mark a critical juncture in the
debate.
Macmillan’s Speech, the inform
ants said, will be pitched to a low
key. He will follow lines similar
to those presented by President
Eisenhower a week ago and indi
cate to the 96-member world or
ganization that the West is keep
ing an open mind on approaches
to such urgent issues as disarma
ment and nuclear weapons control.
Macmillan’s conference schedule
Wednesday included meetings with
President Gamal Abdel Nasser of
the United Arab Republic and
Prime Minister Nehru of India.

Kennedy Hits GOP Stand
On Medical Care for Aged
By The Associated Press
Sen. John F. Kennedy hammered
Wednesday at his Republican rival,
Vice President Richard M. Nixon,
as “a man who led the opposition
to medical care for the aged.”
Invading upstate New York at
the start of his drive to win New
York’s crucial 45 electoral votes
for the presidency, Kennedy came
out slugging at his GOP rival in
an address to a meeting of “senior
citizens” in Buffalo.
Nixon not only led the’ opposi
tion, Kennedy declared, but he was
ready to carry on that opposition
when picked by the Republican Na
tional Convention to head its ticket.
“In 1935, the Republicans failed
to block progress,” in connection
with social security, the Demo
cratic presidential nominee said in
his speech.
“This year they succeeded in de
stroying the hopes' of Americans
over the age of 65 for relief from
the crushing burden of medical bills
and for the opportunity to fully
care for their health.”
Instead of a program for medi
cal care under the Social Security
system, Kennedy said, the Repub
licans substituted a bill “which
will cost the American taxpayer
over a billion dollars a year, is
impossible to administer, will not
even be put into effect in many of
our states, has been rejected by the
governor of New York, and will
fail to bring relief where it does
go into effect.”
Kennedy said the lesson for old
er citizens was clear: “Only with
a Democratic president in the
White House, can we hope to bring
help to poverty - stricken older
Americans.”
Kennedy’s day took him first
across the Niagara frontier area
by motor, then on an airplane
sweep to Rochester, Buffalo and
Albany.
