INTERPRETIVE REPORT ;
Europe Has Misgivings
By CROSBY S. NOYES
For tun Corrtipondrnt of Th« itor
PARIS, Nov. 33.—Out of the
stuplfyinf outpouring of grief,
shock and anger that is the
world’s response to President
Kennedy’s assassination, cer
tain political overtones of ma
jor importance are already be
ginning to emerge.
The positive one—the draw
ing together of those who com
miserate in their loss and de
! plore the crime—has already
been mentioned. One important
fact is that, with the notable
exception of Red China, the
feeling of revulsion appears to
be strong on both sides of the
Iron Curtain. And this, if all
goes well, could be a construc
tive force in the period to
come.
The rest of the emerging
political results at this point
seem mostly negative and sin
ister.
In Europe, and probably
elsewhere as well, the strongest
of these is the fear of a mas
slve, uncontrollable emotional
reaction in the United States.
European Involvement
The tact that the man
charged with Mr. Kennedy’s
assassination is said to have I
had violent and open sympa
thies for Fidel Castro’s Cuba
and a pro-Russian, pro-Com
m u n 1 s t background has been |
accepted reluctantly and with
great dismay. There was a
lingering suspicion that the
news was false and perhaps
maliciously fabricated. To the
extent that it is now accepted,
it causes the deepest misgiv
ings.
This is not because Euro
peans the msel ves are sym
pathetic to Mr. Castro or to
communism in general. It is
quite simply the result of a
feeling that the United States
is in acute danger of being
swept away in a whirlwind of
emotional reaction which will
play directly into the hands of
the extremists and which the
new President may be unable
to control.
It is not only the fate of the
United States that is threa
tened by his danger. Since the
Cuban crisis of October, 1962,
Europeans are acutely aware of
how closely they are involved
in any major clash over Mr.
Castro. They also know to what
extent the policy of the Ameri
can Government toward Cuba
can be influenced by the force
of public opinion.
Clash Over Cuba Feared
This European fear of a new
and fatal clash in Cuba is per-,

haps a reflection of Europe’s
natural mistrust of the good
sense and steadiness of the
American people. Perhaps it is
also a projection of the volatili
ty and Instability that would
result in Europe in the wake of
any such calamity. It is a fact,
nevertheless, that many people
believe the clash is Inevitable
and the consequences infinitely
dangerous.
Short of the fear of total dis
aster. there are also other
misgivings. To a very large ex
tent Mr. Kennedy was recog
nized here, together with Mr.
Khrushchev, as the main inspi
ration and the main hope for a
significant improvement in
East-West relations. There is a
concern that this progress, ten
t a ti v e as it may have been,
may now be reversed.
Mr. Khrushchev himself
seems to share this concern.)
His apparently genuine distress
and his ostentatious demon
strations of sympathy would
seem to reflect very real anxie
ty. If he hopes, as most experts
here assume, to prevent a hos
til reaction in the United
States and a hardening of cold
war positions, his reactions are
entirely understandable. It is
even possible that some more
spectacular gesture of Russian
sympathy toward the new
American regime may be in
! offing.
Relied Heavily on Kennedy
Less as a direct result of the
political character of the assas
, s i n a ti o n, hut also connected
with it, are misgivings about
the relations between Europe
and the United States. In the
coming year, these relations
are facing a most difficult per
iod, with growing tensions and
irritations only too obvious on;
either side.
In this situation. Europe has
been relying heavily—perhaps
too heavily—on Mr. Kennedy’s
spontaneous good will and his
dedication to the cause of
Atlantic solidarity.
This calculation is now inevi
tably much more doubtful.
Whatever the dispositon of the
new President, it is feared here
that Mr. Kennedy’s assassina
tion can only result in
strengthening the forces and
also the political prospects of
the conservative right wing. |
In light of current Republi
can positions, this is precisely]
the same to most Europeans as j
strengthening the forces of;
American isolation of pullback]
and pullout and withdrawal!
economically and militarily.
Here again there could be
salubrious side effects. Presi-j
_ State-
i dent de Gaulle’s prompt reac
tion to the tragedy seems to be
tinged with something more,
than the characteristic nobility
of the man in times of crisis.
There are some who see the
possibility of a decisive change j
of tone. If not of content, in i
Franco-Amerlcan relations in c
the future. The change could 1
be Imposed, at least in part, by *
the considerations cited above.)
Racial Issue Cited
ii
Finally and rather
there is enormous attention t
being given in Europe to the *
effect of the President’s death c
on the problem of racial inte- f
gration in the United States. _
Here again, the almost univer
sal prediction is that the forces)
lof conservatism, if not of reac
tion, will be reinforced. What is]
recognized here as a problem of |
world-wide dimensions is ex
pected to become more difficult r
and perhaps more dangerous in t
the months to come. ] i;
It is not that Europeans do s
not expect President Johnson, j
whether in Cuba or Europe or r
in his domestic policies, to do 1
his best to carry on in the line i
ithat Mr. Kennedy had laid t
idown. The question here is t
whether he will be able to gov- i
em the pressures that may be
generated by the public reac- t
tion to the President's assassi- S
) nation. |i

Express Sympathy
Cnntinwed From Page A-l
J. F. Kennedy made a tangible
contribution, would be con
tinued in the interests of peace,
for the benefit of mankind.
‘ Accept, Mr. President, my
personal condolences. Signed:
N. Khrushchev. Chairman of
the Council of Ministers of the
USSR, Moscow, The Kremlin.
November 33. IMS.”
Sympathy far Mrs. Kennedy
To Mrs. Kennedy, Mr.
Khrushchev wrote:
“All people who knew him
greatly respected him and I
shall always keep the memory
of my meetings with him. Ac
cept my most sincere condo
lences and expressions of
wholehearted sympathy with
your grievous bereavement.”
Mr. Khrushchev’s wife Nina
also sent a message to Mrs.
Kennedy, saying: “I ask you to
accept at this hour of sorrow
my sincere condolences and
sympathy with you and your
entire family."
Ordinary Russians joined the:
stream of diplomats and others
who called at Spasso House.
Mr. Kohler's residence, to sign
the book of condolences. The
first were four young men •
from the Moscow Engineering- j
Physics Institute. They said
Bronze Lincoln
Has Shiny Nose
SPRINGFIELD, 111. (AP).— I
The bronze face of Abraham
Lincoln in front of his tomb
in Oak Ridge Cemetery has a
dark green patina over all of
it except for an area of shiny
yellow on President Lincoln’s
nose.
According to an official at
the memorial, the shiny nose
is the result of an irresistible
impulse of visitors to touch
the face, sometimes for luck,
sometimes to show off for a
camera, and sometimes just to
feel closer to a great man.
Tokyo Modernizes
International Airport
TOKYO (AP).—The newly
remodeled Tokyo International
Airport is completely modern
ized with a colorfully-appointed
special waiting room which ad
joins the departing passengers
room and has plastic “prot
holes" through which people
may talk, a rotating circular
table fed by conveyor belts for
baggage, television, and other
modem conveniences.
On the roof of the modem
terminal building is an Inarl
Shrine with its characteristic
red “torii" or gateway.
1 they had come as individuals
s to pay their respects.
Outpouring of Sympathy
Americans in Moscow were
, engulfed by an outpouring of
.sympathy from Russians every
, where.
“My wife could not sleep all
night.” one said.
! “The whole Russian people
is sorry." said another
“How could such a thing in
America?" asked one shocked
elderly woman. “And to such
|a fine man.”
Thousands of Muscovites,
alerted to the President’s death
by radio reports last night,
stood in line to buy news
papers containing reports of
the assassination. Newsstands
were sold out minutes after
they opened.
Official Soviet propaganda
organs staged an unpreqe
, dented display of respect for
Mr. Kennedy.
Urn Communist party organ,
1 Pravda, displayed his photo
graph on its front page, as did
most other newspapers.
