Khrushchev Demands Dag's Resignation
Bulletin
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. — (UPI) — Half the delegates to the general assembly walked out today when Janos Kadar — the man who delivered Hungary to the Russians during the 1956 freedom revolt — rose to speak.
United Press International
UNITED NATIONS — Premier Nikita Khrushchev today demanded U.N. Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjold's resignation and threatened to bypass the United Nations if his job is not abolished. But he ran into powerful opposition by Indian Premier Jawaharlal Nehru.
Nehru, following Khrushchev to the rostrum, rejected Soviet moves to write another veto into the U.N. charter. He also renewed a neutralist demand that the Soviet leader meet immediately with President Eisenhower to ease world tensions. He said Eisenhower's rejection of the proposal still left the door open for a meeting.
The Indian Prime Minister's rebuff to Khrushchev was extremely significant because of Nehru's role as chief spokesman and elder statesman of the neutral nations.
Rebuff Significant
Khrushchev said there can be no disarmament or other peaceful moves if Hammarskjold's job is not abolished and replaced by a Communist-style three-man presidium He said the Communists will "rely on their own strength" if the reorganization is not carried out.
Khrushchev said Hammarskjoeld played a "deplorable" role in the Congo and said "if he does not muster up enough courage to resign then we shall draw the necessary conclusions from the obtaining situation."
Khrushchev noted that a Communist has never been allowed to become president of the General Assembly, said the West would rightly mistrust a Communist Secretary-General.
"We cannot rely on the Secretary General's conscience because everyone has his own view regarding conscience, his own understanding of moral standards," Khrushchev said. "The capitalist world
has its own moral standards, the Communist world its own and the neutralist countries their own."
But the Indian leader, with a calm and dispassionate 55-minute speech, stole Khrushchev's thunder
Rebukes U.S.. U.S.S.R.
He rebuked both the United States and the Soviet for not reaching an agreement on disarmament, indirectly criticized Soviet intervention in the Congo and ask. I the General Assembly to send a commission to the Congo to see if foreign troops other than U.N. forces were interfering in the Congo's internal affairs.
Nehru called for the admission of Communist China to the United Nations but without the threats and
tantrums that accompanied a similar Khrushchev demand on Saturday. He also asked for the admission of Outer Mongolia, vetooed by Nationalist China three years ago.
Nehru was applauded by both East and West and by the African Nations as he condemned colonialism, Belgian military activity in Katanga Province, and at Communist interference in the Congo.
He received heavy applause when he defended Hammarskjold and said his activities had prevented crisis from turning into war.
After the session newsmen asked Khrushev for comment on Nehru's address.
"It was a good speech, a very good speech," Khrushchev replied.

Presidential Campaign Strategy Outlined
Kennedy to Aim at Nixon Campaign Veep's Reputation Approaches Peak
By Merriman Smith
Sen. John Kennedy's principal goal in the remaining five weeks of the presidential campaign is to tear down the reputation of Vice President Richard M. Nixon as a man of experience in foreign affairs.
The Democratic nominee, who drew large and vociferous crowds in

With international tension running high because of the antics of Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev at the United Nations, the "experience" plank in Nixon's platform weighs heavily on Kennedy.
the East during the past two weeks, was encouraged by widespread audience acceptance of his almost caustic references to the lack of results from Nixon's trips overseas.
To counter it, Kennedy is determined to push with all possible vigor the idea that although Nixon traveled extensively, he was unable to foresee a number of international crises and plan to meet them.
Kennedy also has been pounding several other basic issues:
He does not picture the United States as a secondary power, but he comes close to it and blames the Republicans.
He favors much greater federal participation in the lives of Americans than Nixon does. This applies to aid to education, minimum wage, assistance to chronic unemployment areas, farm price supports, and medical care for the aged.
The Republican candidate said he believes that is when the critical point will be reached in the campaign and he doesn't want to fire his heavy ammunition too early.
WASHINGTON — (UPI) - Vice President Richard M. Nixon, carefully pacing the tempo of his campaign, is aiming to reach the peak of his drive against Sen. John K. Kennedy about three weeks before election day.
Actually, Nixon has shown no signs of weariness. He has lost weight, but he deliberately has been trying to take off a few pounds. His health appears good, and both the injured knee and hay fever that had plagued him have cleared up.
The main theme of Nixon's campaign still is foreign policy. The one

great issue he continues to stress is what candidate is best suited to "keep peace without surrender and extend freedom throughout the world."
Nixon might have expected the unspectacular tone of the TV debate would produce party pressure for him to "get tough" with Kennedy. It did, and Nixon stepped up the tempo of his attack. But that would have happened anyway as part of his campaign strategy.
Campus Returns to Normal After 'Big' Football Weekend
The campus almost seemed deserted this morning after the throng's of parents, high school band members and football enthusiasts returned home from the biggest weekend on campus this year.
University officials said 40,000 persons watched the KU-Syracuse football game in Memorial Stadium. This was the 11th sellout in Kansas history, but missed the record attendance of 41,500 which was set against Missouri in 1949.
The west interchange of the Kansas Turnpike reported that traffic came into Lawrence in steady streams Saturday. Clinton Thompson said that 8,112 cars entered and exited at the interchange from 8 am, to midnight Saturday. He said the normal load for a Saturday was about 1,200 cars — an 85 per cent increase. There were no figures available at the east turnpike interchange.
Despite the great influx of traffic, University police reported that no major accidents occurred during the day. Maps of parking areas and desired routes to take to get to the areas were distributed by the KTA and the police credited this device for saving many fans time and decreasing traffic across the campus. No heat prostrations or such were reported either.
More than 3,100 parents registered for the weekend, Larry J. Heeb, assistant professor of physical education, said. They came from Maryland, Washington, D.C., Texas, California and nearly all states in between.
The weekend's frenetic activities confused more than just motorists as foreign exchange students expressed amazement at the size of crowd and the antics in the stands.
Julia Matthews, Fulbright student from England, said that "it's incredible that people come so far to see the football games. In England the university soccer and rugby games don't attract much attention."
Irmgard Kinzig, Fulbright student from Germany, wondered why the cheering was organized.
