\ \ \i Time for a Demonstration _;;____ B * MA8ON RO8SITER SMITH CONSIDERING THE SUBSTANTIAL INCREASE IN THE ^^ number of Americans visiting tht Sovitt Union this yaar, and the number of peopU who havt f«qu*»t*d and obtained interviews with Nikita Khrushchav, tha Russian premier might well be described as his country's No. I tourist attraction. In- deed, that so many travailing American newspaperman and so so many political leaders (Adlai Stevenson, twice unsuccessful ^Democrat candidate for President; Senator Hubert Humphrey of Minnesota, who last week made known his own Presidential 1 as- pirations; former Governor Harriman of New York; and more recently HM? governors of some seven other U. S. states, to men* tion a few, should have asked to moat him during the past y*ar and that the pnfe* of this country should have played tip so strongly their version* of these interviews, may—judging from Khrushchev's recent rermtrks—have actually gone to his head. In any case, a compart*on\pf the interviews as they have been reported seems to indicate a Rowing cockineu and self-assur- ance on the part of the Soviet orator; as if he had become increasingly aware of American interest Ui him and his views, and of oft-expressed American fears that Soviet production and technology may be on the way to surpassing ^urs. iMost of the people who have interviewed Rkru*hchev have expressed surprise at the extent of his knowledge ofxthe United States; only Governor Harriman has returned with the irr>pression that the Soviet premier seems to know so dangerously little a^out this country and its tremendous capacities that he might unwit- tingly overplay his hapd and bring about another World War. Accordingly, the former governor, who has never distinguished himself particularly as a businessman, a statesman, or more re- cently as a ^jottrnalisV suggests that Khrushchev be invited to visit America and see for himself. \ _ Actually, the chances ara very slight that much good is to be gained fry inviting Khrushchev to the United States—entirely aside from the fact that an official invitation, especially in view pf pit strong hwits toward that kind of recoonition now for if*mff y4*rs, might stretch Mr. K's currant egomania to the breaking /point. \ To begin with, the Soviet premier would almost certainly be assured of an even cooler reception than that accorded his dep- uty, Frol R. Koilov, who spent a brief time over here a few weeks ago, in conjunction with the opening of the* Russian exhibit in the Colisseum in New York city. Indeed, it's quite likely that general See TIME FOR A DEMONSTRATION Page Six BARGAIN DAYS , The Retail Merchants Division extends a hearty wel- come to all area shoppers to coma to Gouverneur Thursday, Friday a/id Saturday, July 23, 24 and 25, for the I 3th Annual Bargain Days. y The event this year will stress tha traditional sales and mark-downs in all participating stores.
