‘Can 9 t Say No 9
CADET SLOUCH
hy Jim Earle
(Rusk Tells Senate
v rf-a
By LEWIS GULICK
WASHINGTON (A>)—Secretary
of State Dean Rusk testified
Tuesday that congressional turn
down of President Kennedy’s
plan to buy $100 million of U.N.
bonds would spell catastrophe for
both the United Nations and the
United States.
Rusk appeared before a Senate
Foreign Relations Committee to
plead Kennedy’s case for U.S.
purchase of half the $200-million
U.N. bond issue. The U.N. fi
nancial troubles stem from cost
of its Congo operations and re
fusal of some bloc members to
pay their share.
While some senators, led by
Sen. George D. Aiken, R-Vt.,
showed doubts about the bond
scheme, the committee question
ing generally suggested the
group will go along with the
Kennedy plan.
A move did shape up among
legislators in both parties to tack
on a requirement that U.S. pur
chases of the bonds not exceed
the total purchase by other coun
tries.
“ ... I did quite a bit of research before I changed courses!
I must have compared prices of textbooks at the th’ book
stores to determine which were cheaper!”
Rusk did not say no to this.
He put off a yes pending a search
on whether technical considera
tions make it possible.
It was Sen. Albert Gore, D-
Tenn., who put to Rusk the ques
tion on what would happen to the
United Nations should Congress
reject the bond plan.
INTERPRETING
U.S. Still U.N. Friend
While Other Nations Balk
By J. M. ROBERTS
Associated Press News Analyst
The United States is now the
only big power which both acts
and talks in full support of the
United Nations.
Prime Minister Harold Mac
millan, echoing his. Foreign Min
ister Lord Home, charges the
General Assembly with futility,
illegal actions and generally re
sents the power exercised by the
small-nation majority and its ap
proach to the problem of ending
colonialism.
growing year by year, said the
other day: “The United Nations
is neither controlled by nor sub
servient to the Soviet Union or
to any state or block of states.
The U.S.S.R does not dominate
the United Nations, but neither
does the United States. And this
is what is behind the thinking of
many of U.N.’s critics.”
The prime minister gi'ows cold
toward U.N. participation in big-
power negotiations—keeping the
peace.
France just ignores the whole
thing as futile whenever she
pleases, and the Soviet Union
rants against anything except
what favors her subversive ends.
The fifth permanent member
of the Security Council, Nation
alist China, carries small weight.
And although the United States
continues to assert its reliance
on the United Nations, there is
wide dissatisfaction within the
country with the results and the
prospects.
Ralph J. Bunche, whose figure
as a world statesman has been
Undoubtedly that was in Mac
millan’s mind Monday when he
remarked that a two-thirds ma
jority in the United Nations
could be mustered by countries
which pay less than 6 per cent
of its expenses.
What’s really burning the Bri
tish, of course, is that they were
persuaded by the European Con
go lobby to dissent from U.N.
policy there, which produced a
split with the United States.
The British also are apprehen
sive about the more hopeful out
look for the Congo which seems
to be growing out of U.N. policy.
It will generate more pressure on
Great Britain to grant indepen
dence in her remaining dependen
cies, such as Kenya, before she
thinks it is advisable, for the
sake of good order.
Macmillan inveighs against
small-nation power in the United
Nations without responsibility.
He says peace will be kept by
the balance of nuclear power
among the big nations, not by
resolutions.
But big-nation competition or
small-nation approval has also
proved a mighty force on many
occasions. And the big nations
certainly can’t point with much
pride to the state of the world
produced during* their ^scend-
, ancy.

The U.N.’s finances, Rusk re
plied, “would move from the crit
ical point to financial catastro
phe. There would have to be
drastic action of some sort taken
if the U.N. effort in the Congo
is not to collapse.”
How about the political result,
Gore asked.
“It would be a political and fi
nancial catastrophe for the
United Nations,” Rusk said, “but
also a political catastrophe for
the United States because of the
stakes we have in the Congo op
eration.”
The secretary of state outlined
from a prepared statement the
reasons why he said “it seems
to me overwhelmingly plain that
our national interests allow us
no choice” but to buy the U.N,
securities.
From a U.S. foreign policy
standpoint, he d e s c r i b ed the
United Nations as a central in
strument in the drive to estab
lish peace and world order.

ENJOY GAMES LIKE 3-D TIC-TAC-TOE?
Then you’d like computer programming, the new career
that makes full use of your logical talents. If you have a
keen analytical and logical mind—and want to use it fully
after college—then computer programming at IBM may
be just the career you’ve always looked forward to.
A computer programmer examines a business, indus
trial, or scientific problem and translates it into a special
mathematical-logical language for the computer. Working
at amazing speeds, the computer can produce answers
in minutes, even seconds. Some of these answers might
actually take days to produce by other methods.
The problems are interesting and varied. IBM pro
grammers have used computers to predict hurricanes, tell
days ahead where satellites will be in-space, locate the
best factory sites for businessmen, and aid highway engi
neers in laying out roads.
You naturally have
a better chance to grow
with a growth company.
No previous knowledge of computers is necessary; an
intensive training course will equip you for your work. But
you should have an analytical and logical turn of mind,
and at least two years of college mathematics.
In computer programming you will find that the salaries
are excellent, and that the future can be virtually as un
limited as the future of the computer itself. There are
ample opportunities for continued education.
The IBM representative will interview on your campus.
He will be glad to give you details about this fascinating
new profession. Your placement office will make an ap
pointment. All qualified applicants will be considered for
employment without regard to race, creed, color or na
tional origin. Or you may write, outlining briefly your
background, to: Manager of Technical Recruitment, IBM
