Register-Uuard, Eugene, Ore., Page J Tiics,, Jan. 22, 1952 Ike Aid Taft? No Comment, General Says Won't Commit Self on '52 Race By LYLE C. WILSON Untied Freif BUU Wrlttr WASHINGTON OJ.R) Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower's response to an interesting question raised by Sen. Robert A. Taft was "no comment." The question was whether the general would support the sena tor for president if the senator won the Republican nomination this year. Taft already was on record. He told NBC's Meet the Press tele vision question panel that if Ike were nominated he would support him. Then Taft inquired of his questioners whether he would have the general's support if the positions were reversed. Outlined Views . The United Press asked Eisen hower's headquarters in suburban Paris. But if the general has made up his mind, he is not yet ready to announce his plan of action after the Republican National Convention. The response was; no comment. , After his retirement as chief of staff and before his return to mili tary command of Allied forces in Europe, Eisenhower sketched in feneral outline his political creed In a series of speeches. Atne on Foreign Aid These- were sharply critical of Truman Administration domestic policies, especially free spending and what the general feared were socialistic encroachments on pri vate liberty and enterprise. There were few details in the Eisenhower platform as outlined in speeches during his presidency of Columbia University. But the general pattern was opposition to much of what Mr. Truman stood for at home and support of just 'azout all the President stood for In foreign policy. Ind Hand Report! Since returning to Europe, the general's position on questions other than mutual defense and foreign spending have come to the public second handed, if at all ' A question which bothers some of his managers is whether that will satisfy the American people. There are recurrent reports that the general will return to make a couple of speeches or to use a Congressional committee as a sounding board. His headquarters spokesmen re cently told the United Press these reports were "as phony as a three dollar bill." ? si"1 1 V-' (NEA Telenhotol SUPER-SACK FOR ACHING BACKS Ground-bruised and weary GI's in the Far East are now being equipped with this lightweight inflatable sleeping bag.

Jap Parliament Hears Hirohito Emperor Praises Allied Assistance By JOHN RANDOLPH AuorUled rrrn stall Writer TOKYO (IP) From the dais where he once announced Japan's war policy, Emperor Hirohito Tuesday urged the Japanese par liament to work for "eternal peace." The lawmakers stood stiffly with their heads bowed low in ceremonial respect. The emperor was welcoming Japan's 13th postwar diet, which is expected to be in power when peace treaty is ratiued and Japan again becomes a sovereign nation. The emperor said: "I think the duty of our people is to work for development of in ternational peace and harmony." In reply Jojo Hayashi, speaker of the house, said: "It is earnestly hoped that the people will realize the grave re sponsibilities and duties they will have to shoulder once they be come independent, and renew their determination to respond to the expectations and trusts of the world's nations." The emperor spoke of a "sense of gratitude for the friendship and assistance constantly accorded the Allied powers throughout these six long years" since Japan was de feated in World War II. (NEA Telephotol SHE SOLOED AT TEN Betty Lee Bennett, age 10, is con gratulated by her father, Alfred Bennett of Conway, Pa., after she made her first solo flight in a light plane in Havana, Cuba. Looking on is Alfred Bennett, Jr.. who soloed last year at age 11 in Mexico. Bennett, a flyer with 10,000 hours in the air, took his daughter to Cuba because U.

And as a bonus it gives you cooling and dried air for this same basement room . or some other room in summer if you choose, This new robot uses less elec tricity the nnly expense except electric hot water heater. The report was made by M. S. Oldacre of the Utilities Research Red 'Discipline In UN Camps UN PRISON CAMP No. 1, Koje Island, Korea U.R Compound 66 Is the "Kremlin" of this island city of Communist war prisoners. Behind its triple bnrberi wire fences a 2600-member polltburo of "hard-core" North Korean of ficers plots the master plan of terror and political intrigue which gripes the 170,000 prisoners and internees in the other compounds. Despite specially reinforced wire fences and watchful guards man ning machincguns, this arrogant inner circle of officers, many of them trained in Moscow, issues orders and messages to Commu nist agents in the other enclosures in an attempt to maintain political discipline. UN officers believe In many in stances the more than 30 murders and countless riots among the prisoners in the past year have been ordered by the inmates of Compound 66. Elaborate blue prints for escape also have been masterminded by this elite group The air in the room is blown by a fan into a refrigerating system, using refrigeratng fluids the same as most household refrigerators. The heat is extracted from this air, and then passes in a coil up through a water tank in a coil up through a water tank about five feet high. The cold air that remains is blown back Into the room, where It both dries and cools. In this home the basement room became a quick-drying room for the laundry. The heat of this basement room was around 85 the year round, from the furnace in winter and from the outdoor heat in sum mer. It was also humid in sum mer. The water in the heater was kept at about 145 degrees. There was no noticeable increase In ex pense of heating the house in winter due to robbing the base ment air. The magic In this trick Is the fact that, although the air is only at 85 degrees, If you con centrate the amount of heat in a few cubic feet of air down to a few cubic Inches it Is a lot hotter. This principle both heats entire homes in winter and cools and air-conditions them in summer using the air from pipes laid deep under your yard. RFC Hikes Tin Prices in U.S. WASHINGTON tP) The Reconstruction Finance Corp. raised the price of tin Tuesday to American industry from $1.03 a pound to $1.2114. The old price had been in ef fect since Aug. 1.

The government agency is the sole importer of tin from abroad, j It sells about 50,000. tons a year to American industry. The price hike to American business is a result of an agree ment with Great Britain under which the U.S. will sell Britain more than a million tons of steel in return for 20,000 tons of tin at $1.18 a pound The RFC said Do Pretzels Need Fresh Air for Flavor? READING, Pa. (IP) Do pretzels need fresh air to retain their flavor? The Reading City Council will have to answer that question. Mayor James B.

Rejections Rare Hankey, 46, was to succeed Sir Francis Shepherd who has been British Ambassador in Tehran through all the oil trouble. Hankey's name had been sent to Premier Mohammed Mossa degh's government for aproval under normal diplomatic pro cedure. It's rejection a rare event in the field of diplomacy seemed bound to worsen relations, already almost at the breaking point, be tween Britain and this tumultuous Middle-Eastern kingdom. : Resounding Slap It was another resounding slap at Britain from the Iranians, who 10 days ago ordered all nine British consulates in the country closed. The British after strong protests, shut them down Sunday.
