Draff No-Compromise Plan
In Support Of Civil Rights
By WILLIAM F. ARBOGAST
WASHINGTON 11 Democratic
strategists promised a strong civil
rights statement today to round
out an unofficial political platform
for the 1958 congressional elections.
Drafted yesterday by the na
tional party's advisory council at
the conclusion of a two-day meet
ing here, the civil rights statement
had the approval of 18 of the 24
council members, including former
President Harry S. Truman and
Adlai E. Stevenson, 1952-1956 pres
idential nominee.
It adds to statements dealing
with foreign policy, national de
fense and economics which Demo
crats hope to make major issues
In next year's bid to strengthen
their control of Congress.
Lone objector to the civil rights
statement approved behind closed
doors reportedly was Mrs. Benja
min B. Everett, North Carolina na
tional committecwoman.
Compromise Spurnad
While details of the civil rights
pronouncement were withheld tem
porarily, council members hinted
that it called for no compromise.
They said it ordered a staff study
of the need for new legislation and
criticized President Eisenhower for
not yet having named the civil
rights commission provided for in
a 1957 law.
Gov. Avcrell Harriman of New
York interpreted the statement as
emphasizing that the Democrats
don't .intend to yield ground in
their demand for an effective civil
richts program.
The economics declaration flay
ed the Eisenhower administration s
asserted "negative" attack on the
"worse peacetime inflation" in
history and called for a change in
the "tight money" policy, tax aid
for small business and price stabi
lization.

"The Beit Place
Ore. Mon. Oct. 21, 1957
the last 19 months, the Democrats
said the GOP has done nothing
but raise interest rates and tight
en the supply of money.
"There must be an increased
supply of funds at reasonable rates
for productive investment, home
and school construction," the coun
cil said. "The first need now is to
resume growth to get produc
tion rising again ... If living costs
continue to rise or do so when ex
pansion is resumed, we must have
an active, firm and broadly based
Dolicv to insure price stability . . .
"Firms with large powers to in
crease their prices must De tola,
in terms that admit of no uncer
tainty, that sound public policy re
ouires nrice stability. Collective
bargaining must proceed within
the framework of present prices.
Prestige Abroad "Low"
While the Eisenhower adminis
tration "has excelled all others in
our history in the number and
length of piety of Its lectures on
Dublic morality." the Democrats
said, "it has been remarkably in
different to the immoral robbery
worked by what historians will
call the Eisenhower inflation."
The council's foreign policy and
defense statement said the Repub
lican administration has under
taken "unilateral disarmament at
the expense of our national secur
ity" despite Russia's "rapid prog
ress in science and technology."
As a result, it said, the confi
dence of our allies in the United
States' "integrity and responsibil
ity of its conduct" has hit a low
point.
It said the administration "has
made the fundamental error of
placing fiscal objectives and do
mestic political considerations
ahead of the nation'! security."

Scientist Shocked
At Complacency On
Russian Sputnik
By DON GUY
CAMBRIDGE, llass.. I Dr.
J. Allen llynek, associate direc
tor of the Smithsonian Astrophys
ical Observatory, said here that he
was "shocked" at the complacent
attitude he encountered in the
Midwest last week toward the
Russian feat of launching a satel
lite. Dr. llynek spoke at the annual
meeting of the optical society of
America at Columbus, Ohio, on the
satellite optical tracking program
he heads.
The complacency, he said, was
among lamen and not the sci
entists he met.
"Their attitude seemed to be
that we had lost the ball on the
40-yard line but would surely win
the ball game," Hynek said.
Commenting on a report! from
Russia that the Soviets might
launch an atomatic station to be
set up on the moon, Dr. Hynek
said the problem of reaching the
moon was not much more difficult
than that of launching a satellite.
"It is very definitely in the
realm of present possibility to
reach the moon," Dr. Hynek cm-
Eashized. He said a satellite would
ave to be launched into space
at seven miles a second to reach
the moon as compared to five
miles a second to orbit around
the world.
The difficulty would be In the
controls to aim the satellite at the
moon and enable it to land on the
surface without destroying itself,
the scientist said.
The moon is at an average
distance of about 239,000 miles.

boulders piled on the highway
in the Rio Grande gorge. Several
motorists plowed into rockslides
before highway crews cleared the
route.
Floodwaters flowed as mucli as
two feet deep through downtown
Estancia, central New Mexico
farming community. Two hundred
men battled the inundation with
sandbags. An earth dam thrown
across State Road 41 through the
town finally averted the threat to
the business section.
The flood came from a six-foot
crest racing down an arroyo in
northwest Estancia from the cast
slopes of the Sandia Mountains.
Levees burst under the strain.

Travelers See
Troops Along
Turkish Border
ISTANBUL, Turkey Wl Re
turning travelers reported Satur
day seeing large numbers of Turk
ish Infantry and strong armored
units dug in along the tense Syr
ian border.
Eyewitnesses who toured tr.9
dusty roads along the western sec
tion of the frontier said military
trucks were rumbling in the area
night and day. Troops and armor
appeared well dug in and in de
fensive positions, one traveler
said, with equipment camou
flaged from ground or air obser
vation. Two witnesses said they saw
about 30 American officers and
noncoms clad in field uniforms in
the area. These apparently were
technical instructors and advisers
attached to Turkish units for train
ing purposes as part of the Amer
ican defense aid program here.
Turkey has repeatedly rejected
Syrian claims that troops are
poised for anti-Syrian aggression.
In several notes Turkish leaders
have insisted on Turkey's right to
maneuver her own troops for de
fensive purposes in her own terri
tory. Travelers said the troops ap
peared well fitted out with Amer
ican weapons bazookas and re
coiless rifles among them.
At one point, four or five miles
from the Syrian border, they saw
an improvised air strip for artil
lery reconnaisance planes.
Units have set up headquarters
in farmhouses and schools in the
area, the travelers said. But they
agreed that in cities and villages
along the frontier the atmosphere
appeared one of calm and "busi
ness as usual."

Public Apathy Toward
Mishaps, Welfare Needs
Cited By Safety Head
CHICAGO W Ned H. Dear
born, president of the National
Safety Council, said Monday the
safety movement nas ianea tj
rouse the public enough to win
the war on accidents.
He said this was especially trtit
of traffic accidents.
In a speech prepared for the
annual meeting of the National
Safety Congress, Dearborn cited
the improvements in other na
tional health and welfare prob
lems compared to small decreases
in the nation's traffic toll.
"We in the safety movement
have failed to stir the hearts of
our fellow countrymen." he said.
"There are scores of other worthy
causes which arouse widespread
support heart ailment cancer,
and currently Asian flu, to men
tion only a few.
"Why, in the name of humanity,
don't the American people react
in the same degree to the terrible
toll of accidents 95,000 killed in
1956 alone, more than a million
injured, many thousands of them
permanently, and an economic
loss of 11 billion dollars."
Dearborn listed several weak
nesses in safety programs:
"Business has only reccnlly
taken positive action against off
time job accidents.
"Labor is still a weak safety
voice crying in the wilderness.
"Women are nowhere near as
active in the field of safety as in
other worthy welfare work.
"Government interest and action
are growing, but many areas are
still sadly neglected.
