Political Front
: ; By UNITED PRESS
The air became acrimonious to
day as Oregon aspirants for office
pulled out the stops to give their
all in the last two and . one-half
i weeks of the political campaigning
before the Nov. 6 general election.
Sen. Wayne Morse, now running
as." a Democrat to succeed him
self, charged in a rally at Aurora
yesterday that "The highest bank
ruptcy rate among small business
es, in the last 25 years' 'was one
of the consequences "of the Eisen
hower administration's hard mon
ey, high interest rate policy."
Morse said "The administration
now tries to shift blame for its
hard money policy to the Federal
Reserve bank, but the fact is that
Treasury Secretary George Hum
phrey invoked increased interest
rates on government money just
nine days after he took office."
Says Measures Opposed
Morse added that "it is inter
esting to note that the measures
Republican senatorial nominee
Douglas McKay now claims to
advocate as aids to distressed
small businessmen are the very
measures that the Eisenhower ad
ministration has opposed."
McKay, former Interior Secre
tary, told a meeting of Portland
Republican party workers yester
duy that the policies that Morse
is working for will "hurt those
citizens who arc dependent on old
age assistance." He said: "He is
insisting on removal of the pres
ent curbs on inflation in order to
create cheap money. During the
past seven years of the Truman
administration, the cost of living
rose 49 per cent because of infla
tionrobbing those on pensions of
nearly 50 per cent of their pur
chasing power. Increases in pen
sion payments never did catch
up." .
Kennedy Du.
Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass)
will arrive in Portland Sunday for
a round of appearances in support
of the Democratic ticket.
State Sen. Robert D. Holmes,
Democratic candidate for gover
nor, told Klamath county Demo-
crate in Klamath Falls yesterday
that his Republican opponent,
Gov. Elmo Smith, had a "strange
notion that what he has done in
the past bears no relationship to
what he can be expected to do in
the future."
Holmes said "Elmo now admits
that as a state senator he did not
vote with the Interests of the en
tire state in mind. He explains his
reactionary record by saying he
'represented his district.' As a
state senator he should have been
thinking about Oregon and voting
for Oregon's interests since 1949.

Eisenhower Raps Stevenson
For Draft, H-Bomb Stands
LOS ANGELES (UP) President
Eisenhower took sharp issue with
Adlai Stevtnson Friday night for
advocating the abandonment of
the draft and H-bomb tests and
then heade'd for Washington today
to draft a reply to a new proposal
from Soviet Premier Nicolai Bul
ganin. -
The text of the latest message
from the Soviet premier, received
in Washington Friday, remained
secret until the President can
study it. He was expected to draft
an answer to it Sunday.
There was speculation it dealt
with disarmament, including the
question of banning further hydro
gen bomb tests. Mr. Eisenhower
has said repeatedly, such a ban
can be . ordered only after art
agreement for international in
spection of nuclear stockpiles has
been reached. '
Earlier Bulganln Proposal
Such a ban was proposed by
Bulganin in his last previous mes
sage to the President, who coun
tered by referring to his proposal
for "open skies" aerial inspection
made at the Geneva Conference.
Stevenson since has made d cam
paign issue of both the draft and
the H-bomb testing by declaring
they ought to be. junked by an
international pact.
The President, in a bare-
knuckles televised political speech
Friday night in Hollywood Bowl,
took off his glasses, narrowed his
lips and departed from his pre..
pared text to declare, without
Another Note
Sent to Ike
By Bulganin
WASHINGTON (UP) Observers
speculated today that Russian
Premier Nikolai Bulganin's mys
terious new note to President Ei
senhower may renew Soviet .pro
posals for banning nuclear tests.
Democratic presidential nomi
nee Adlai E. Stevenson has made
his proposal for the U.S. to ban
H-bomb tests a principal cam
paign issue.
Mr. Eisenhower has said Steven
son's proposal would weaken "our
power to guard the peace."
The Bulganin message was de
livered to the State Department
Friday less than three weeks be
fore Election Day. Neither the de
partment nor the Russian Em
bassy would give any clues to its
contents.
Bulganin sent the message to
the President without waiting for
a rely to his last letter. Normally,
Bulganin waits for Mr. Eisenhow
er to answer before dispatching a
new message.
Andrei M. Ledovski, Soviet Em
bassy counselor, delivered the
message to Secretary of State
John Foster Dulles at an unan
nounced meeting.
Ledovski said afterwards: . "I
visited the secretary ol state to
transmit a message from Premier
Bulganin to President Eisenhower.
Mr. Dulles said the text will be
translated and transmitted to the
President on Sunday."
The President is scheduled to
return to Washinpon tonight from
a West Ccr.st speaking tour.
identifying his Democratic oppon
ent by name::
"The man who today dismisses
our military draft as an 'incred
ible waste' is a man who, while
I do not question his sincerity, is
speaking from incredible folly or
incredible ignorance of war or the
causes of war."
Mr. Eisenhower roused applause
from the standing - room-only
crowd of 22,000 in Hollywood Bowl
when he expanded on his theme::
"We cannot risk our security on
those who time and time and time
again broke the peace of the
world. Until the Communists arc
ready to agree on inspection we
shall seek these goals (of peace)
by staying strong and growing
stronger."
President's Eye Inflamed
Mr. Eisenhower, suffering an in
flamed eye caused by a couple
of pieces of tiny confetti getting
stuck under his left eyelid, sched
uled a brief stopover in Denver,
Colo., at noon today to pick up
Mrs. Elvera Doud, Mrs. Eisen
hower's mother, and round out his
five-day campaign swing through
western states by making a brief
speech.
He covered principal cities in
Minnesota, Washington, Oregon
and California before dropping
down in Colorado.
Despite his red eye, the Presi
dent looked hale and fit as he
stepped on the Hollywood Bowl
podium Friday night for his fifth
major address in some 5,000 miles
of campaigning via the Columbine
III. his personal plane.
His physician, Maj. Gen.
Howard McC. Snyder, said the
confetti caused a "slight hemorr
hage" and that .while the eye "is
getting better. . .it still will be red
when he reaches Washington Sat
urday.",. . ,,,'

U.S. Canal Pilots
Reported Ready
To Leave Egypt
CAIRO, Egypt (UP) Some of
the 17 American pilots who liew
here recently to work for Egypt's
Suez Canal authority are ready to
pack their bags and go home be
cause of pay disputes, their spokes
man said today.
Capt. Elmo Chester Holland, 43,
of Newport Beach, Calif., told
United Press that some may quit
within the next few days.
Although it was not definitely
known how many of the U.S.
pilots will leave, it was believed
a full-scale American walkout may
come this weekend when the first
payday falls due.
"As far as I'm concerned, there
was misrepresentation by the
Egyptian authorities over finances
and a number of other Americans
have had the same experience,"
Holland said.
He said he was promised that
his earnings during the first 18
months would be tax-free to avoid
double taxation in the United
States, but. when he received his
first partial pay a large amount
was taken out for Egyptian in
come tax.
"This means I shall be paying
taxes both here and in the stales",
Holland complained.

Fulbright Sees
Need to Revise
Banking Laws
CHICAGO (UP) Sen. J. Wil
liam Fulbright concluded the 10-
day hearing into the million-dollar
Orville Hodge scandal with the
opinion there is a need for revision
ot the federal banking laws.
The . Arkansas Democrat re
cessed the public hearings Indefi
nitely Friday but said the Senate
Banking and Currency Committee
would continue to study the con
nections between banks and politi
cal campaigns.
The investigation included' a
variety of political and banking
people, including Gov. William G.
Stratton and iodge, who is now
paying for his mammoth theft of
stute funds in the penitentiary,
where he has been sentenced to
from 12-15 years.
Fulbright recommended federal
insurance not be extended to state
banks "which cater to public offi
cials and make political contribu
tions In the expectation of receiv
ing large deposits of state funds."
A highlight of the hearings was
the open acknowledgment of cer
tain bankers that it was perfectly
normal for them to fatten a politi
cian's campaign fund in return for
the deposit of state money at their
banks.
The investigation included both
this tieup between bankers and
politicians and the Hodge em
bezzlement. Among the final witnesses called
Friday was State Treasurer War
ren Wright, who said he ignored
Hodge's plea to help cover up once
the scandal became p.ib:ic.
Wright testified Hodge warned
him the "entire Republican team"
would be defeated in the Novem
ber elections were he not pro
tected.
After the treasurer became sus
picious of Hodge's check-cashing
activities, he had photostats made
of all the auditor's phony checks
and gave them to Stratton. Not
long afterwards, Stratton demand
ed Hodge get out of office and
step off the GOP ticket for re
election.

Russia Said
Sending Tanks
nto Country
WARSAW, Poland (UP) Polish
workers staged si (down strikes to
day to demonstrate their Support
for liberalization policies which
Moscow's Nikita Khrushchev op
posed during a blitz visit to War
saw. .
The strikes occurred in several
factories shortly after Khrushchev
and a top-level Soviet delegation
flew home from a secret confer
ence here. '
Between 15,000 and 20,000 work
ers at the big Zeran automobile
works in the Warsaw suburbs
staged a sitdown strike as a sign
of solidarity for rehabilitated "lib
eral" Communist leader, Wladls-
law Gomulka. ,
Manifestations" were reported
at "many other factories.
Troops Reported Near
(In Paris, the newspaper Le
Monde reported that 800 Russian
tanks and "important" troop con
centrations from Red Germany
had crossed the border into Po
land and were converging on
Warsaw.
(Lc Monde correspondent Phil
ippe Ben reported from Warsaw
that the Polish Communists were
arming students and workers to
resist the advance.
(The newspaper said It was pos
sible, however, that the troop
movements were ordered betore
the start ot Khrushchev's meet
ing with the Polish leaders. Le
Monde said it had been confirmed
that Polish Communist Party
First Secretary Edward Ochab
"demanded ; most categorically"
that-""all military measures "be
cancelled before the opening of
the negotiations.")
Polish Socialism
Despite the Russian opposition,
the Polish press and people con-'
tinued their buildup of Gomulka, .
scheduled under present plans to
take over as new First Secretary
of the party, and to speak openly
of a "Polish road to Socialism."
Warsaw was tense but outward,
ly calm. There were no crowds,
even outside the cabinet office
building whore the Central Com
mittee Is meeting.
But there was general Indigna
tion against the visit by Khrush
chev and his high-powered dele
gation which included former Sov
iet Foreign Minister V.M. Molotov
and deputy premiers Anastas Mik
oyan and Lazar Kaganovich.
Professional people and workers
considered It tactless of the Rus
sians to arrive in the midst of
the crucial meetings ot the Polish
Central Commitee.
