Statesman, Salem, Ore., FrL, Sept' 28, '58 (Sec. I)-3 t Ike 'Overwhelmed' by Tour Reception, But Favors 'Working Like We Might Lose By J. W. DAVIS WASHINGTON, Sept. 27 Wl President Eisenhower, stepping up his schedule of campaign speeches, said today he believed in fighting any battle wholeheart-edly-snd with the thought there is always "a chance to lose it." He made the statement in turn ing aside a ( news conference ques tion's! to whether he was getting reports his re-election campaign against Democrat Adali Stevenson "may be a closer race than you anticipated." "I have not anticipated any thing," Eisenhower replied with aome force. "I believe that when you are in any contest you should anything enough, for not putting your whole heart into it. It ia what I do." Not Pessimistic However, Eisenhower did not sound at all pessimistic. Nor did the sum total of hii remarks on the campaign sound as though he were "running scared,"' despite his statement about the possibility of losing. Eisenhower said he had talked last night to his hard-campaigning running mate, Vice President Nixon- and Nixon "seemed to be hl'h'r pleased with what he en countered. Warmth Encountered And, asked for his Impressions "I am probably doing a little bit more than I originally planned In my own mind," Eisenhower re sponded, adding with a grin: "But I will tell you one thing: I am not doing one-tenth of what a lot of people want me to do." In addition to speeches he has delivered nationally from Wash ington, Iowa and Illinois, Eisen hower has announced plans for one at Lexington, Ky . Monday night and another at Pittsburgh Oct. 8. Maay Requests A reporter asked the flat ques tion: Why, sir, are you expand ing or doing more campaigning than you originally planned?" With an expression of great good humor, Eisenhower replied that it was "simply because there are so many representations made by such good friends that I think I am a little weak. I don't find it possible to decline all of them." "Now I am not going to go barnstorming, and I am not going to do whistle-stopping, but I am making two or three more talks than I had first contemplated." The President got a chuckle out of a woman I description of Mrs. Eisenhower as "your secret weap on." He said Mrs. Eisenhower would accompany him on any campaign trips that would not be too tiring for her. As for his own physical ability to campaign something that re called his heart attack of a year ago and his abdominal operation in June, Eisenhower said: I whatsoever." "As far ai I know, there Is no Eisenhower treated with these health question involved whatso- additional subjects, among others, ever at the moment. during the half-hour meeting with newsmen: POLITICS WAR Told that Re publican committees were putting out literature saying Inert are four million more jobs now "than the Democrats had with their wars," Eisenhower said the com mittees "may be thinking of some thing that I don't know anything! about, but I don't believe when "As I told you long ago, that I lead a somewhat more ordered life than I did at one time. I try to get to bed regularly, and all that sort of thing. "However, as far as I can deter mine any effect of any of the ef forts I have made, either swing ing a golf club or on a campaign tour, there has been no effect America gets Into war we can call it anything but our war." v'j NAACP-Eisenhower said. "No. I am not" when asked whether he was a member of the National Assn. for the Advancement of Col ored People. Nixon told a ques tioner yesterday that he Nixon had been an honorary member since 1941 SHORT WORK WEEK Eisen hower said that, "If the day can come that we have a four-day week, and people can have a greater time for leisure, recrea. - ' tion. and education and so an, why wonderful. But no man can say it,", it going to coma about because I v tay so." .. Nixon has talked of a four-day.'' week as possible in the future,'! -and Eisenhower laid the admin- istration tries to establish the sort r , of economic climate "where ev erybody's efforts can be reworded ''.. to the full."

"So "Both Mrs. Eisenhower and I I just see no excuse, if you believe ; have been not only proua. we nave neen practically overwneimea oy the warmth of the personal wel come we have encountered. "We are very, very happy that people seem to feel toward us like they show." As for the odds of his bejng re elected, Eisenhower mentioned this indirectly in comment on a statement by Dean Acheson, sec retary of state in the Truman ad ministration, that the Eisenhower administration "seemed to be Storm Causes Trouble Along Eastern Coast NEW YORK, Sept. 27 JT The isortheast today felt the whiplash ; plavins Russian roulette with an of Mossy, once a menacing tropi-,omjc Dislni ral hurricane hut now just a mean old coastal storm.

Eisenhower said: "If this campaign were going to be settled on the basis of mis leading wisecracks, why, I would think the betting would be very considerably different than it would be if it is settled just on facts and on the record."
