The current farm bill is an improvement over the bill Mr. Eisenhower recently vetoed, in that it allows for flexible parity payments. It is an improvement on the bill Mr. Eisenhower recommended, in that it does not turn over to him a half billion dollars to distribute immediately to farmers who contemplate future participation in the soil bank program. All in all, it is a compromise measure, but based on the doctrine of special aid to powerful voting blocks.

Premier Khrushchev’s toast to Arab nationalism, which grievously affronted the French, appears to have been a demonstration of power, intended to serve a disciplinary purpose. It is the intention of the Soviet Union to remind Premier Guy Mollet from time to time that his government owes its life to the continuing support of one hundred and fifty Communist votes in the French Assembly.
