Eisenhower's Speech Substantially Agreed W.'frU ntfiVSal Pnl.Vw i Y T III! v M w a By LYLE C. WILSON Washington (U.R) Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower"! opening campaign speech was in substan tial agreement with the official statement of Republican policy of which the principal author was Sen. Robert A. Taft. Republicans from the House, Senate and national committee under Taft's chairmanship stated the party line in February, 1950, pending this year's national con vention when a presidential plat form will be drafted. In Greater Detail The 1950 declaration was In greater detail than was Eisen hower's maiden speech in his campaign for the Republican presidential nomination. But there appeared to be a meaning ful conflict between them as far as the general went in revealing his ideas. The 1950 Republican policy group overwhelmingly re jected proposals for abandon ment of the bi-partisan foreign policy position which in effect, committed them to at least criti cal support of the foreign aid program. Inflation Tagged Eisenhower in Abilene tagged monetary inflation, excessive taxation, bureaucracy and dis unity among the American peo ple as the basic threats to free dom here. Republican policy in 1'950 de manded an end to deficit spend ing, a balanced budget and tax reduction. It proposed a redis tribution of functions between the federal government and the states with emphasis on decen tralization of power from Wash ington. Eisenhower also dealt with that subject in general terms. The policy statement was more detailed in its challenge to bureaucracy than was Eisen hower, but the themes of Wednesday's speech and the 1950 statement were similar. Dewey's Speech Recalled Eisenhower's speech recalled Gov. Thomas E. Dewey's first speech after his nomination for president In 19'q. Both speeches were in general terms, touching the high spots and stating out standing problems, but without attempting ti solve them all In one speech. i Dewey acknowledged the gen eral nature of his campaign opener and promised the voters he would develop the specific problems and their solutions as the campaign progressed. His follow-up failed to convince enough voters to elect him. Will Press Issues Eisenhower, likewise, will be expected to deal specifically with the issues which got the once-over-lightly from him in Abilene Wednesday and with others he did not mention; The voters will expect it, Taft men whenever the general appears will press the Issues upon him for specific answer. With his first speech the gen eral merely declared himself eligible to play.
