v !!t,:. 16-(Sec. II) Statesman, Salem, Ore., Fri., Sept. 21, '58 Nixon Accuses Kefauver of 'Beloiv-the-BeW Campaign , 8y WILLIAM ABOGAST SPOKANE, Wash., Sept. 20 (AV Via President Nixon descended from hi current "high - level" campaign drive today to accuse Sem Estes Kefauver of "below the bey low-road tactics." . In a speech prepared for deliv ery following a noon rally at Nam 1 i "i 1 1 pa. Idaho, Nixon demanded that the Tennessee senator apologue to President Eisenhower "and to the American people" for what he called a "condescending and con temptuous reference to the so called little people in America." Ha reterred to a Sept. It state ment by Kefauver, Democratic Stranger in America J i - r I j. ! i ! it i ! ; 1 . 1 - vice presidential nominee, that President Eisenhower has per sonally been working just as hard against the little people of this nation as those who surrounl him." Thla Veil', ' .That, Nixon charged, was a "thinly veiled attempt to give the impression that . the President of the United States is deliberately working against a large segment of our population." The record of the Eisenhower administration refutes the Kefau ver statement, Nixon said.' Nixon, spearheading the COP re-election drive with a 32-state airborne campaign, said if Kefau ver didn t apologize for the state ment, Adlai Stevenson "should dis sociate himself from him for such below the belt, low-road tactics." It was the first time in the cur rent swing that started .Tuesday that the vice president didn't pull his punches in referring to his op position. He had insisted from the start that he would not engage in personalities unless he felt com pelled to. ApeUgy Aske4 Yesterday at Minneapolis. Ke fauver called on the "new Nixon" to apologise for what the Tennes- senator said were slurs against the lovaltv of Democratic leaders made in past Nixon campaigns. "This type of talk." he saw, "is nothing more than a desperate tactic on the part of our opponent to cover up the facts that leaders of both labor and business publicly and privately have agreed upon that during this administration we are experiencing an era of unpar alleled prosperity. In the years uemocrauc administrations prior to 1952," Nixon said, "our opponents never were able to produce prosperity except during or as a result of War." Nixon came to Washington to phut for the election of Gov. Ar thur Langlie to the Senate. Lang- lie, keynoter at this year's GOP National Convention, is trying to unseat Sen. Warren G. Magnuson.

But a small taste wis promised for to morrow. ,The bakers Jammed into an ofen-like meeting ball and voted after a stormy two-hour session to Ikt'up their evens tomorrow. Acting on a proposal by leaders , of their syndicate, the bakers agreed to turn out a little bread to "calm down the people." But tiey refused to sell the bread over t6e -counter. It will be put at the disposal of the Seine (Paris area) Prefecture. . JTjie action was iaken ai the French government served requis ition orders on too bakeries in an effort to get production rolling T:ain. " ''. y.

But by nightfall.: reports lndl ited only negligible amounts of bread were being baked. The (.000 Paris area bakers joined those in some other parts of France yesterday in a strike to weax me government s nreaa price ceiling, now about 14 cents pound. If the government gives in, it would mean a rise in the cost of living index and a proba ble"; upward adjustment in mini nvrn wssjes. This in turn would arid' to France's already critical inflation headaches. ;' 15. But between now and early December millions of forms and instructions havmf to do with"in dividual taxpayer returns alone must be readied for distribution. The Internal Revenue Service said today that from 250 to 27S carioaas of paper- will bo con sumed in the gigantic task. The whole operation will cost the government more than four million dollars, including distribu tion by mail. That, ofcourse, is a small sum compared with the rec ord $34,100,000,000 the Treasury expects to net this year from in dividual taxpayers. Over-all the Budget Bureau has estimated 37tt billion dollars will be paid in, but refunds are expected to reduce that amount. By early next week the first truckloada of the printed matter will be on the way from Washing ton to Kansas City. Mo. and to Lawrence. Mass., where labels will be attached to the packages for mailing to an estimated 60 million taxpayers. A schedule calls for the first mail cars to roll out of Lawrence and Kansas City late in Decem ber and the postman will begin calling at your door with the forms any time after Jan. 2.

Sept. 20 -Sec-retary of Defense Wilson said to day some draftees might be re leased after 21 months service as a means to build up the reserve forces. ."" .. ' The Pentagon chief said that such a step was under considera tion, partly because the new vol unteer reserve program, in its first year of operation, "has not brought in the numbers we hoped for or think that we need. Wikon told, a news conference there was no immediate intention of asking Congress for authority to draft young men directly into the reserve force for six months of active military training. Wilson was asked for comment on the recent suggestion by Adlai Stevenson, the Democratic presi dential nominee, that it might be possible to maintain American military forces In the foreseeable future" without the draft. Wilson said that President Ei senhower had covered the ground thoroughly in his address last night. The President said that ending the draft "cannot be done under world conditions of today."

Sept. 20 -The pros ecution's star witness testified to day one of eight men accused of the $1,219,000 Brink's robbery wanted to disable the money firm's alarm system by bombing underground conduits. Joseph J. (Specs) O'Keefe, who already has proclaimed his guilt to the robbery, said he and Stan ley Gusciora now dead broke in to the American District Tel egraph Co. office and stole the Brink's alarm folder from an un locked filing cabinet. He said they took, the folder to the home of defendant Anthony Pino who hoped information con tained in the file would make it possible to disable the alarm sys tem protecting Brink's by drop ping hand grenades or incendiary bombs into underground conduits. But, O'Keefe added, the file failed to produce the desired in formation and H was returned to the ADT office. Defense counsel Paul T. Smith, asked if Pino had read contents of the Brink's file pilfered from the ADT, which maintains the Brink's alarm. : "Tony," said O'Keefe, "read the file as best he can. He usually ; confined himself to comic books, ! funny books. He did the best he can. ' When Smith asked O'Keefe. "Who is the brains of this thing?" the witness replied: "You can pick one of them out; I don't care which one." Earlier, the prosecution con tended defendant Joseph F. Mc Ginnis, S3, masterminded the rob bery. In addition to Pino and McGin- nis, those on trial in Suffolk Su perior Court are Vincent J. Costa, 42; Thomas F. Richardson, 49; James L Faherty, 45; Henry Bak er. SO; Michael V. Geagan, 47, and Adolph Maffie, 45. Before the trial opened, O'Keefe pleaded guilty and another accused, Joseph Ban field, 45, died. Defendant in Trial Kicks Video Camera INDIANAPOLIS. Sept. 20 lV-A 32 year-old man disabled a tele vision camera brought in to film his holdup trial today, but the judge had him brought back later in handcuffs to face the camera. .

Woodson's lawyer, Alva Rucker, asked Judge Rabb to clear the courtroom of newsmen and cam eramen, but Rabb replied: 'I cannot control the newspa pers and cameramen. We stiu have freedom of the press. This is an open court, and as long as I am judge the public is going to know what's going on."
