Without naming his Democratic opponent Adlai E. Stevenson, Ei senhower said that one ot Steven son's contentions in the campaign debate over continued bomb test ing "is based upon apparent un awareness of the facts." Eisenhower issued his second formal reply to Stevenson's re- Adlai Slugs at GOP Boost to Giant Business Tours N.Y. After Whip. Cracking Assault on Foreign Policy NEW YORK UV-Adlai E. Stev enson said today the Eisenhower administration has "confused gen uine friendship for business with snuggling intimacy toward a few of its giants." "We Democrats . . . reject the idea of an America in which everyone is on the payroll of a few giant corporations," he declared in a speech prepared for a luncheon of businessmen supporters. The Democratic presidential nominee contended,, at the start of 12-hour schedule ot rallies in the city and surrounding counties, that because of Republican poli cies small business is being "squeezed by the growing giants, buffeted by the merger movement, strangled by high interest rates Stevenson's shift to discussion of Republican economic actions came after a whip-cracking as sault on President Elsenhower s foreign policies, and on Secretary of State Dulles and Vice President Nixon, before a cheering throng in Madison Square Garden last night. The partisan, banner-waving crowd filled all seats affording a view of the speaker. Democratic leaders said 18,000 were on hand. Several hundred seats, hlocked off by platform installations, re maincd empty. None were turned away as in 1932 when Stevenson spoke in the Garden.

Stevenson himself had drawn some scattered boos among the cheers from a small crowd of by standers as he left his hotel to drive to the Garden.

While rejecting Stevenson's ar guments, the President said he remains "profoundly hopeful" that a properly safeguarded system of world disarmament will come to pass. But until that comes, he de clared: "We must continue .-. . to de velop our strength in the most ad vanced weapons for the sake of our own national safety, for the sake of all free nations, for the sake of peace Itself ... Must Hare Safeguards "There is nothing in postwar history to justify the belief that we should or even that we could dare accept anything less than sound safeguards and controls for any disarmament arrangements." On another point raised by Dem ocratic campaigners, Eisenhower said big business has lost, rather than gained, under his adminis tration. In a speech last night at the 75th anniversary banquet of the carpenters union, Eisenhower said if his administration were guilty of favoring big business, as charged, "1 am sure big business would assert we have failed dis mally." . 'l give you two interesting facts," he said. "During the years 1946 to 1952, inclusive, corporate profits after taxes averaged 7.7 per cent of the national in come. During the period since 1953 when this administration entered office, corporate profits after taxes have averaged 6.0 per ceni or ine national income.

The girl, Karen Rcnee Henvy, ran sobbing from the courtroom of District .Judge A. J. Mastrelti Tuesday morning after the jurist ruled she had to return to her mother, Mrs. Nathalie Wackcr of Salem, Ore. She had been living with her father, Thomas Henvy of Reno, since last July. The girl screamed. "He denied it ... he denied it" and bolted from the courtroom. .She fled through the front entrance to the courthouse and disappeared into a snowstorm. A daylong search for the child by police was called oft Tuesday night by police when her father found her in the hotel lobby. Kar en said she had been hiding all day in an employes' dressing room in the hotel basement, ex plaining she came upstairs be' cause she became hungry.

The record indicated that Vales made his nhirrtinns in resnretlul I manner," the court declared, divorced in Reno in 1954. At that time, the mother was awarded custody of Karen during the school year and Henvy was to have the child during summer vacations.

A total of $199,001.73 was tallied at the luncheon Wednesday, some 87.4 per cent of the- $227,800 goal. An earlier figure that showed gains past the $200,000 mark, was attributed to an error in calculat ing totals by UF workers. Meanwhile a special UF steer ing committee met Wednesday morning and voted to recommend the campaign be lengthened at least one week. The UF board of directors were to decide on this at a meeting Wednesday afternoon. The steering committee, appoint ed by President Herbert E. Barker and Chairman William H.

Jet Planes Strafe Crowds in B udapest Streets; Premier Shift Sparks Fighting By FRANZ CYRUS United Press Staff Correspondent '.. VIENNA (UP) Civil war erupted in Communist Hungary today. A new Communist regime headed by Premier Imre Nagy, installed in the bloody hours before dawn, appealed desperately but in vain over Budapest Radio for an end to the fighting. An Austrian just returned from Budapest told United Press that "at least 350 persons have been killed so far in the Budapest up rising." Nagy, ousted in April, 1955, as a "Titoist" and- called in now to lead the way to a new, Polish-type regime in Hungary, declared mar tin', law and finally called in Rus sian troops, tanks and armored cars. Jets Strafe Crowds Five hours after a declaration of martial law five unidentified jet fighters machine-gunned counter revolutionaries" in the streets of I Budapest. The canllal was sealed off from the rest of the world but Budapest Radio, interspersing its pleas for peace with opera music and with the sound of gunfire clearly audi ble in the background,-was telling the story of the first full-scale re volt in the Soviet Union's Eastern European empire. At mld-aflcrnoon the radio ad mitted the rebellion had spread beyond the city. It said "rioters vainly tried to take over the magnesium mines of Talbany and Salgotarjan, northwest of Budapest. Antl Communist Kcvolt What had started as an intra- Communist struggle for power now was raging as a revolt against the government, with anti- Communists apparently rising against both Red Hungarian rule i ' Russian influence. Budapest Radio described the rebels variously as Fascists, counter - revolutionaries ' and misguided workers. But the radio, although besieged for a time by the rebels, was solidly in government hands and it was telling the government side of tho story. At 2 p.m. (5 a.m. PST) surrend er deadline was ignored by the rebels, and then was extended another four hours, At least one Soviet soldier was reported killed, The Ministry of the Interior clamped a dusk to dawn curfew on Budapest, and an olllclal an nouncement said that some areas of the city have i not yet been cleared of counter-revolutionary groups." The announcement did not say in which parts of the city the fighting still raged. Soldiers, civilians and security police have been killed In the up rising, Hudapest Radio snld.

French and Moroccan armed patrols uncovered more and" mort burned and mutilated bodies in the city of Mckncs where angry Arab nationalists struck Tuesday. Moroccan troops and French Legionnaires mounted guard in the European section of Meknes while the search went on in the native quarters for more bodies. In addition to Tuesday's rioting in the town, French sources said 38 farms, mostly European, in the surrounding countryside were wholly or partly burned by rampaging Moroccans. The actual cause of the rioting In Meknes appeared to be the ac cidental shot fired by a Moroccan trooper who wounded himself, The shot enraged demonstrators and the bloodshed was on.
