Eisenhower
Scraps Talk to
Praise Nixon
(Story also on page one.)
C LEVF LA N D. O. CD Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower called Sen.
Richard M. Nixon of California a
courageous and brave man Tues
day night and indicated strongly
that he will keep him on the GOP
ticket as bis running mate.
Throwing away a prepared
speech on inflation, the GOP pres
idential candidate told an emotion
filled public hall that he will an
nounce his final decision after he
has talked to Nixon face to face.
But be left little doubt what that
decision win be.
Eisenhower gave these views to
an audience of 16,000 people after
they had listened to the dramatic
radio-television defense by Nixon
of his acceptance of an SI 8,000
private expense fund.
In a message to Sen. Nixon, aft
er the meeting, Eisenhower said:
: "Your presentation was magnifi
cent. While technically no deci
sion rests with me, you and I
know the realities of the stituation
require a pronouncement which
public considers decisive.
"My personal decision is going
to be based on personal conclu
sions. I would most appreciate it
if you can fly to see me at once.
Wednesday I will be at Wheeling,
W.Va."
In Los Angeles, James Bassett,
Nixon's press secretary, said, "we
are eolne to Missoula" to resume
Nixon's interrupted campaign tour.
Bassett later announced that the
two staffs were endeavoring to
work out a mutually convenient
place for the Eisenhower- Nixon
meeting.
