...perfumes in Arabia can do wonders, but the United States government is hardly in a position to express deep regret or shock over the death of Premier Patrice Lumumba. Presumably President Kennedy and Ambassador Stevenson have as intimate a knowledge of world affairs as the Neutralist press, (or indeed, the New York Times) which reported two weeks ago that the Congolese leader was being tortured to death...

SECRET PAPERS LEAK! the headlines of London's Daily Express shrilled. U.S. SECURITY MEN CALLED IN! The "secret" papers were purported dispatches from Secretary of State Christian Herter and Secretary of the Army Wilbur Brucker to U.S. diplomats abroad.

Then, at week's end, came U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Adlai Stevenson to express his personal opinion that Jack Kennedy would be "happy" to meet with Khrushchev if Nikita attends the United Nations General Assembly sessions in March-a suggestion that was greeted with cheers in the Russian press. And State Secretary Rusk followed up with a "clarification" of the statement he had made earlier in the week.
