Highlights of Eisenhower's
Speech Accepting Nomination
Chicago U.fi) Highlights
of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower's
speech accepting the Republi
can presidential nomination:
"Our aims the aims of this
Republican crusade are clean
To sweep from office an admin
istration which has fastened on
every one of us the wasteful
ness, the arrogance and corrup
tion in high places, the heavy
burdens and the anxieties which
are the bitter fruit of a party
too long in power."
Progressive Policies
."It is our aim to give to our
country a program of progres
sive policies drawn from our
finest Republican traditions; to
unite us wherever we have been
divided; to strengthen freedom
wherever among any group it
has been weakened; to build a
sure foundation for sound pros
perity and for all here at home
and for a just and sure peace
in our world."
"Today is the first day of our
battle. The road that leads to
November 4 is a fighting road.
In that fight I will keep nothing
in reserve."
Will Meet The People
"In this battle to which all
of us are now committed it will
be my practice to meet and talk
with Americans face to face in
every section, every nook and
. cranny of this land."
"Since this morning I have
had helpful and heartwarming
talks with Senator Taft, Govern
or Warren and Governor Stas
sen. I wanted them to know, as
I want you now to know, that
in the hard fight ahead we will
work intimately together . . ."
Confidence in Purpose
"As we go to the country,
Americans in every walk of life
can have confidence that our
single-minded purpose is to
serve their interest, guard and
extend their rights, and strength
en the America we love."
"It is more than a nomination
I accept today. It is a dedication
A dedication to the shining
promise, of tomorrow. As togeth
er we face that tomorrow, I be
seech the prayers of all our peo
ple and the blessing and guid
ance of almightly God."
"I have stood before on the
eve of battle. Before every at
tack it has always been my prac
tice to seek out our men in'
their camps and along the road
and talk with them face to face
about their concerns and dis
cuss with them the great mis
sion to which we were all com
mitted." (See Story Page 1)

Young Richard Nixon
Reached Prominence
In Alger Hiss Trial
Chicago (U.R) The young
man who parlayed Whittaker
Chambers' pumpkin papers into
a vice presidential nomination
was ready when the .lightning
struck.
Thirty-nine-year-old Sen. Rich
ard M. Nixon held a midnight
press conference in his hotel
room after getting the Republi
can bid to serve notice on the
Democrats and Gen. Dwight D.
Eisenhower that they're going
to see something new in veeps
when he hits the campaign trail.
Just Two Issues
The Californian said that as
far as he is concerned, there
are only two .issues "the Tru
man record" and" "Communism
at home and abroad."
On those issues, and with
Eisenhower at the head of the
ticket, he said, "We can defeat
any Democratic candidate."
"Because," he added, "regard
less of who he is, he will be a
Truman - named, Truman - con
trolled candidate."
Stuck With HST Record
"Any Democratic candidate
will be stuck with the Truman
record, and that gives us our
issue."
As soon as the GOP conven
tion formally nominated him
Friday night, Nixon hustled over
to Eisenhower's headquarters to
talk over the strategy they will
follow in the election campaign
Wilson Executions
Cleared by Court
San Francisco (U.R) The
Ninth U.S. Court of Appeals in
effect has cleared the way for
the execution of Turman G. Wil
son, 25, and his brother, Utah E
Wilson, 21, for the 1950 kidnap-
slaying of Jo Ann Dewey, 18, of
Meadowglade, Wash.
The court Thursday lifted its
stay preventing the execution in
the Washington state peniten
tiary at Walla Walla. At the
same time the court denied an
appeal to bring a petition for re
lease before the court.
The petition previously had
been denied by Federal Judge
Samuel M. Driver at Spokane.
The brothers were scheduled
to die June 23, but a stay of exe
cution was granted while the
court reviewed their case.
Next step in the case will be
return of the brothers to Van
couver, Wash., where, for the
fourth time, an execution date
will be set.
Accident Costs High
At Salem Crossings
Salem (U.R) Railroad grade
crossing accidents in Salem have
cost half a million dollars in
the last 10 years, the Salem
League of Women Voters said
Saturday.
The league has made a detail
ed study of accidents. It said
replies to a questionnaire from
participants in 274 of the 542
recorded grade crossing acci
dents showed property damage
in those accidents at $112,500.
Another $304,000 was listed as
the actual cost in 16 fatal acci
dents, including insurance paid
to beneficiaries.
In figuring the dollar costs
of accidents, the league consider
ed vehicle repairs, cargo and
clothing damage, towing charges,
working time lost, attorney, doc
tor, nurse, medical and hospital
expenses.
Cloud-Seeders In Air
Friday Afternoon
Cloud-seeding planes were in
the air for 2 hours 27 minutes
Friday afternoon, working on a
threatening thunderhead forma
tion over the Greensprings and
Siskiyou summit areas, it was
reported by the fliers Saturday.
The hail-threatening forma
tions extended to about Ashland
on the north, but might have
come into the valley unless seed
ed, the pilots explained. Tops of
the formation were around Z5,
000 feet, and heavy rains were
reported in the mountain areas
following the seeding flights
About one hour was devoted to
actual seeding, with the rest of
the flights made for observation.
The pilots are under contract
to the Rogue River Valley Traf
fic association to seed the clouds
in attempts to prevent hail,
which damages the valley's pear
crop.

between now and November.
He said the general agreed
with him that, he won't be
dropped into the traditional ob
livion of vice-presidents if they
win the election. Eisenhower as
sured him, he said, that he en
visioned the vice-presidency as
"a job which could be greatly
enlarged so far as responsibility
is concerned."
Shot lo Prominence
Nixon, who wasn't even a dele
gate to his party's convention
in 1948, skyrocketed to national
prominence as a Communist-
hunter. He did it without getting
the "witch-hunter" tag pinned
on many of his congressional
colleagues.
As a member of the House
Un-American Activities Commit
tee, he hammered away at the
case of State Department offi
cial Alger Hiss for months after
the rest of the committee and
the general public lost all in
terest in the affair.
President Truman unwittingly
gave Nixon a helping hand by
ridiculing his Communist hunt
as a "red herring" phrase that
came back to haunt the Presi
dent when the Californian final
ly bagged Hiss.
Broke Hiss Case
Nixon broke the Hiss case wide
open one night in 1948, when
V.'hittaker Chambers led him to
a pumpkin patch behind the
Chambers' Maryland farm home
and showed him a cache of docu
ments linking Hiss to a Com
munist network in the federal
government.
Those documents eventually
landed Hiss in a federal prison
for perjury.
Nixon broke into politics six
years ago when he spotted an
advertisement placed in a Cali
fornia ' newspaper by a citizens'
committee. The ad called for
a candidate to run against vet
eran Democratic Rep. Jerry
Voorhis in California's 12th Dis
trict. Defeated Voorhis
Nixon answered the ad, took
on Voorhis in a series of Lincoln-Douglas
style debates, and
won the election. The national
publicity he won on the Hiss
case carried' him into the Senate
in 1950 after a bitter campaign
against actress-politician Helen
Gtihagan Douglas.
Born Jan. 9, 1913, in Yerba
Linda, Calif., near Los Angeles,
Nixon now has his permanent
home in Whittier, a Quaker
colony which 'also is close to
the movie capital. He and his
attractive wife, the former Pa
tricia Ryan, spend most of the
year with their two young
daughters, Patricia and Julie,
in a modest home in Washington.
A graduate of Whittier Col
lege, he received a law degree
from Duke University in 1937
and was practicing law in Whit
tier when he joined the Navy
during World War II.

Portland Jewelry
Store Victim of
$20,000 Burglary
Portland (U.R) Burglars
seized wrist watches, rings and
other jewelry valued at more
than $20,000 Saturday from Ber
nard's Jewelry store in down
town Portland.
Detective said the yeggmen
forced a basement door in the
nearby Milner hotel, gained ac
cess to the Portland Beauty Ac
ademy and then forced their
way into the basement of the
jewelry store.
Morris Rogoway, one -of the
partners in the store, said an
inventory would have to be tak
en to determine the exact loss.
He said a display case contain
ing more than 300 stone-set
rings and another display case
with men's wrist watches were
cleaned out.
Officers called it a "well-planned
job."
The jewelry robbery was the
second major burglary in the
Portland area in 24 hours and
climaxed a series of lesser jobs
over the last week, police said.
On Friday morning, burglars
shattered a safe in the Shamrock
Shopping center and took about
$1500. It, too, was described as
a "well-planned job" because the
establishment was protected by
a burglar alarm system. Police
said the yeggs avoided it by bor
ing a hole in the roof to gain
entrance.
Another burglary was report
ed in the St. John's district
where more than $500 was tak
en from a safe in Slim's tav
ern. -
