President Eisenhower Rejects Idea
Of America Losing' Air Control
WABHiHli lON (Alt I resi
dent Eisenhower rejected Wed
nesday any idea that America
may have lost control of the alt
to Husain.
It ir "Just not true," Eisen
hower said, to say that "we have
lost, in a twinkling all of this
great technical development, and
technical knowledge as well as
the number* in our total air
ct aft.”
The President spoke up at a
news conference at which he
also:

Defended Secretary of Welfare
Hobby's handling of the polio
vaccine j roblem he stud it
would be a waste of time to com
ment on a demand by Sen. Morse
(D-Ore) that she be removed
for Incompetency.
Declared with table-thumping
emphasis that h«- is heading into
a Big Four meeting with Rus
sia with "no appeasement in my
heart." He said he doesn't be
lieve the American people sus
pect their government is apt to
fall into the appeasement trap.
Neutralized State*
Noted that the thought seems
to be developing that “there
might be built up a series of
neutralized states from north
to south through Kurope." But he
said the peace treaty neutraliz
ing Austria doesn't mean "a dis
armed Austria” nor "a military
blank.” That kind of neutrality,
of a kind he said Switzerland
would fight to the death to pro
tect, “is a far different thing
from just a military vacuum."
The air power issue was peg
ged to a speech in which Sen.
Symington 1D-M01, former Air
Force secretary, told the Senate
Tuesday this country and the
free world may have lost con
trol of the air to Russia. 8yfh
Ington called for an investiga
tion to determine the relative
strength of Russian and free
world forces in all military cate
gories, in the light of flights of
new type planes over Moscow
early this month.
Anybody Can Control
Eisenhower was asked wheth
er he thinks this country has
lost control of the air to Rus
sia.
"As anybody who is experi
enced in warfare knows." he said,
"control of the air is a relative
thing, and anybody with a cer
tain amount of air force in ac
tion can gain control over a place
where he chooses to concentrate
his air, and for a given space of
time . . even in the face of quite
great general superiority on the
other side.
"The Germans did it to us as
late as Jenuary, 1945."
The chief executive conceded
that the United States may not
have as many B-52 interconti
nental jet bombers "as wc should
like at this- moment."

'Stock Market*
NEW YORK (AP) Heavy
demand for aircrafts sent them
soaring ahead Wednesday and
turned the stock market higher
after two days of decline.
Many leading aircraft shares
were up between three and five
points, and gams of one to three
points were frequent in the rest
of the market.
The Associated Press average
of 60 stocks was up $1.50 at
$161.70. On Monday and Tues
day the average lost $2.30 alto
gether. The industrial component
Wednesday gained $2.40, rail
roads were up $1.40, and utili
ties remained unchanged.
Business amounted to 2,010,
000 shares as compared with 1,
900,000 shares traded Tuesday.
Hu hi’ raid, “but. to say that
we have loaf in a twinkling all o?
this great technical development
and technical excellence aa well
as the numbers in our total air
craft is just not. true.”
There was nothing to clarify
whether he meant that the
United States has or hasn't lost
superiority in number of .planes,
without being surpassed in rpial
