...Nehru's 70th birthday neared, the Prime Minister found his own tame neutralist policies blamed for much of the trouble, and for India's unpreparedness to meet it. NEW WAVE or ANGER WITH MR. NEHRU, headlined the Ambala Tribune. "The Prime Minister is on trial," reported Bombay's Free Press Journal, as angry readers' letters piled high on editors' desks. Millions now knew that the Prime Minister had for years shrugged off Chinese incursions into faraway Ladakh, Kashmir's northeast tip, had even let China cut a road through the district in 1957 without...
...increasingly reckless disregard for Indian opinion, Asian good will, or Khrushchev's caution. Red China seemed spoiling for a fight-almost as if determined to convict Nehru's India as pliable and easily frightened, or else compel it to abandon its prestigious posture as the great uncommitted neutralist power in Asia...
Last week the party came apart. Accusing the left-wingers of being "proCommunist and anti-American while pretending to be neutralist," Right-Wing Leader Sue-hiro Nishio took 30 Socialist Diet members with him and set up a new "Democratic Socialist Party."

Adding Poland to Russia and neutralist Ceylon (which last week replaced Canada on the Security Council) would, they say, still leave the West with an 8-3 majority at the least-one more than the 7-4 vote needed to throw deadlocked issues such as Suez and Hungary into the General Assembly. (But the U.S. argues that...
...seven members of the council to pass an emergency issue on to the General Assembly in case of a Soviet veto. Apparently Washington feels that when such an issue arises it will be unable to carry along with it more than one of the two Latin American or two neutralist countries on the Council. Insisting on this stacked jury makes the whole Council a farce. Even many Scandinavian, Latin American and British Commonwealth nations, usually satellites of the U.S. when voting at the U.N., have rejected our stand this time...
