Eisenhower Said
Wall Street Tool
By Sen. Kefaiiver
Syracuse, N. Y. OI.R) Sen.
Estes Kefauver charged Monday
that Dwight D. Eisenhower is
the "unwitting tool of the few
greedy men who have long
bought to control this country's
economy."
The lanky Tennesseean, a lead
ing conteder for the Demo
cratic presidential nomination,
said "Wall Street bankers" put
Eisenhower across as the Repub
lican candidate.
Their "reactionary" influence,
he said in a prepared campaign
speech, will drag the general
down to defeat whether he is a
liberal himself or not.
"No man, no matter how inde
pendent, no matter how liberal
in his thinking, could complete
ly shut out the spectre of the
die-hard Republicans who are
creeping along behind him," he
said. "General Eisenhower is no
exception.'
Kefauver cited Republicans
supporters of Sen. Robert A.
Taft (R-Ohio) as the source of
his charges that Wall Street
bankers were behind Eisenhow
ers Republican Convention vic
tory last week.

Washington, July 14 (U.R)
Sen. Estes Kefauver of Tennes
see, the coon-skin candidate for
the Democratic presidential
nomination; won national fame
for his spectacular investigation
of organized crime in the United
States.
This investigation made Ke
fauver a familiar and popular
star" on television sets all over
the country. It also won him the
permanent hatred of the Demo
cratic political "bosses" who
thought he hurt the party in .the
1950 election.
Wins Primaries
Undaunted by this opposition,
Kefauver was the first Demo
crat to announce as a candidate
for his party's nomination. In
four months he won 14 of the
16 primaries he entered.
Kefauver is no stranger to
party boss opposition. He won
his senate seat in 1948 against
the bitter opposition of "Boss"
E. H. Crump's long-entrenched
Thirteen thousand troops. 219lpolitical machine in Tennessee.
The rangy, easy-going Ten
nesseean spent 10 years in the
House, where he won a reputa
tion as an outstanding congress
man, before making his bid for
the Senate. In the Senate, he
served on the armed services
and judiciary committees.
Four Youngsters
Kefauver, a graduate of the
Yale law school and the father
of four bright-eyed youngsters,
will be 49 on July 26.
He has said that he expects
to win the Democratic nomina
tion on the sixth ballot. He goes
to Chicago with 257 known con
vention votes, more than any
other candidate.
In recent' weeks, this is how
he has expressed his views on
political issues:
Corruption in government
he has promised "to wage a re
lentless war against crime, cor
ruption and . all shady political
practices. The fight will, be a
hard one and not won by a
single blow."
He also proposed setting up
special commission to ferret
out wrong-doers and report di
rectly to congress. It was "im
proper" for President Truman
to give the corruption clean-up
job to the attorney general's
office.

Work has started on a bridge

not convinced that a national
compulsory commission is the
Dest approach. I believe in ap
proaching the problem through
education and voluntary means."
Foreign Policy "My own
criticism of our foreign policy
to date has been tbat it was in
many cases too negative. We
have become a leader of thel
world not through choice but
through history. It is time for us
to lead."
Korea "It is certainly not
our way of doing things to have
an indefinite stalemate in Ko
rea." He said the United Nations
should give the Communists a I
deadline to reach a truce agree
ment, and if agreement is not
reached "do whatever is needed"
to finish the war, including
"aerial pursuit across the Yalu
river."

Truman Signs Bill
For Base Building
Washington (U.R) President
Truman Monday signed into law
a bill authorizing the armed
forces to expend or build . $2,-
398,282,800 worth of strategic I
bases at home and abroad.
Some of those overseas will
be "saturation" air bases from
whidh a quick blitz could be
launched against a European ag
gressor.
Funds to finance the program
will not be available until the
President signs an appropriation
measure carrying only $2,288,-
784,840. The armed forces will
either have to ask for more
funds next year or eliminate
some of the building planned
under the authorization meas
ure.
The law permits the Army,
Navy and Air Force to carry on
construction work at about 250
bases abroad and in this country.
Some of the overseas work will
be secret building at bases for
