Summary

Editorial cartoon shows Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev writing "Another Peace Note to Ike." A skull (labeled "Stalin Type Executions") dripping blood serves as an ink bottle. In 1958, the Communists shocked the world when they announced the execution of former Hungarian premier Imry Nagy and three other leaders of the 1956 Hungarian revolution. Khrushchev, who had criticized Stalinist methods, had been viewed as taking a more moderate course. Some observers thought a note sent by Khrushchev to President Eisenhower in July 1958 suggesting a conference to consider ways to prevent sneak attacks was an effort to soften the Soviet image and improve prospects for a future summit conference.
