Ike Shocks Washington
Washington, Dec. 29. FFICIALS here were
shocked by the unpre- codontod personal attack on President Eisenhower today by the Soviet Party Communist Secretary, Mr Nikita Khrushchov,
But they declined any immediate official comment on the speech before the Supreme Soviet and said that it was unlikely that any point-by-point rebuttal would be made "on that sort of speech". They described Mr Khrushchev on being "just nasty,"
It was noted that neither the,
speech of Mr Khrushchev nor that of the Soviet Premier, Marshal Nikolai Bulganin, contained any new policy statements or any propaganda
points which had not'already! been made by the Soviet lenders during, what is tro- « quently referred to here as, their recent "bad will" tour of Ams.
But it was the violent tone and language of today's speech by Mr Khrushchev which shocked official Washington as showing just how far the Soviet leaders were now will- ing to go la their departure from the spirit of Genova, ---- China Mail Special.
