LYONS Donald Kuiken returned

WASHINGTON (UP)-The odds
were long against it, but President
Eisenhower has come up with a
scheme to make more political hay
from news conferences than was
ever harvested by that old maestro
FDR, himself.
No telling to what heights Mr.
Roosevelt would have raised his
news conferences if he had been
blessed with the electronic gadgets
now available. He did well enough,
as it was, confounding his political
opponents with the impact of his
twice-weekling meetings with the
news men and women.
He often baffled the reporters
and rarely lost to them in the back
and forth cf repartee in which,
it is true, FDR always enjoyed
the useful assistance of a consider
able claoue. Strictly sneaking, a
claque is a hired group of cheer
leaders and strictly speaking FDR
did not hire his with money. He
bound them to him with guile and
a flattering habit of aadressing a
friendly and sometimes obscure
reporter by his first name, just
tike an equal.
FIW Made Good Show
Take them or leave them, FDR's
news conferences were often the
best show on earth and he handled
them with skill, enjoyment and n
lusty enthusiasm for cutting down
his enemies in and out of the room.
All of that soon will be forgotten
and the old timers in years hence
who try to tell the youngsters how
FDR used to wow 'em on those
wonderful Tuesdays and Fridays
at the White House will get a
blank, disbelieving stare. Mr.
Eisenhower has taken to televi
sion. Ho has taken to newsrecls.
too. but the .political sock in the
new White House policy of filming
news conferences is to come from
TV. You may lay to that.
The President was on view for
the first time this week, in a film
of 25 minutes of the 33-minute
weekly news conference. The ef
fect was terrific.
James C. Hagerty, the alen
White House press secretary.
worked this one out. Henceforth
each week the conferences will be
filmed. Photographers must obey
the rules, however, and therein
lies the spectacularly clever part
of Hagerty's device.
Film To Be Censored
All film must be cut to White
House standards. If the President
goofs one if the President loses
his temper inopportunely if the
President gets hit with an unwel
come question and is put in a bad
light if and if some more.
In the case of all of these "ifs"
the offending portion of film is cut
out and 'delivered to the While
House. The remaining well-selected
portion is loosed to the TV
screens and newsrcel houses. Mr.
Eisenhower always will be at his
best, and his best is pretty wonder
ful, as was FDR's back there a
long time ago.
More and more the people are
going to think of him as "Ike" and
see him with that engaging smile.
This TV news conference deal is
the best political gimmick turned
up since Mr. Roosevelt first
bowled the nation over on the Sun
day after his 1933 inauguration
with what he called a fireside chat.
His chats and news conference
performances kept the Republi
cans off balance for nearly 20
years. Now Mr. Eisenhower has
an improved medium keyed to the
proverb that a picture is worth
Notes on the News
"Isn't that Commerce Department fellow taking a long time
standardizing grass skirts?"
There are those who say Mr.
Eisenhower is not gunning for a
second term. That could be. But,
if, by chance, such persons are
mistaken, the man with the million
dollar grin has a mighty weapon
in hand now. One that promises
trouble for all of his opponents
10,000 words and the customers in all parties and one that gives
get the words, as well. I him a long lead on them.

The FCC investigated and found

New West German Army
Historic Turning Point
By JOSEPH W. CRIGO
t'nited Press Staff Correspondent
WOODBVRX Degrees will be
BONN. Germany 'UP) The
birth of the new West German
army will be a turning point in
post-war European history.
The Bonn Republic will have
only 500.000 men under arms.
Russia has more than four mil
lion. But the significance of the new
German Streilkraefte goes beyond
mere figures.
It means the re-emergence or a
sovereign Germany. Behind the
West German armed forces will
be 50 million vigorous, industri
ous, free people, steeped in proud
military tradition.
Germany is already on the way
to being a world power again.
One reason why France hesitated
to agree to Gorman rearmament
is that it foresaw the day when
Germany might again overshad
ow Russia as a military menace.
West Germany is enjoying a re
markable boom. Its production,
its national income, Its exports
are soaring.
The index of industrial produc
tion, which was 179.7 in Novem
ber. 1953, reached 202.2 in No
vember, 1954.
The volume of foreign trade,
which was $8,280,000,000 in 1953
reached $9,960,000,000 in 1954.
West Germany 's favorable
trade balance in 1954 was 672 mil
lion dollars compared with 600
million dollars in 19.i3,
tweon Germany and Russia are
hard to get. Russia has a habit
of concealing its actual economic
situation by listing its production
in percentages as compared with
previous years.
But here are some revealing
headlines of the last few months,
based on dispatches direct from
Moscow and on expert analyses
of figures made public by Russian
agencies:
Soviet steel and iron industry
fails to reach goals set for output
per man. . . Russian grain har
vest unlikely to reach expected
increase despite drive to cultivate
new land. . , Khrushchev denies
bread shortage. . . Communist
Central Committee criticizes min

because the cotton quota was not
fulfilled.
