Syracuse, N. Y. (U.R) The

"needs no embellishment." In
that statement, the President
said the nation never had been as
well prepared to defend itself as
it is today.

Joe Rips Coexistence
In Lincoln Day Speech
Appleton, Wis. - (U.R) Sen.
Joseph R. McCarthy ripped "co
existence" with the Communists
in a brief speech here Friday
night devoted almost entirely
to a criticism of the Eisenhower
administration.
The Wisconsin Republican
told a hometown Lincoln day
dinner audience that "co-existence
is a catch phrase of an
adopted defeatist assumption
that half the people are free
and half are- slaves."
v For the second time in two
days, McCarthy referred to a
recent White House snub suf

It was here Brownell men
tioned the atomic-cannon bat
talions, and added that air force
fighter interceptor squadrons
now are 100 per cent jet
equipped.
The atomic submarine USS
Nautilus, launched last year, will
be joined this year by the USS
Sea Wolf, an atomic sub of differ
ent design, he said.
"The building of. two atomic-
powered attack type submarines
is underway," he said, "and addi
tional submarines of this type are
included in the 1956 budget, as is
a fifth aircraft carrier of the For-
restal class."
Brownell said that despite in
creases in military strength, the
1956 estimated defense depart
ment costs are more than $9,500,-
000,000 less than actual expend
tures in 1953.

Maid Servant Tells
Police of Slaying
Of Wealthy Woman
Beverly Hills, Calif. (U.R)
A young maid servant admitted
Saturday she hacked wealthy
Mrs. Kate Hayden, 71, to death
with a hand axe after arguing
how to carve a roast of beef.
The maid, Peggy King, 25,
who had been employed only
three days at the Hayden's lav
ish home here, broke down and
confessed the murder after po
lice gqt a "bad reaction" from
her during a lie dectetor test.
Miss King told oficers she had
got the hand axe to cut the
bone on a round roast. Mrs.
Hayden, the wife of millionaire
real estate man Samuel Hayden,
came into the kitchen and they
argued over how the bone
should be cut, Miss King told
police.
"During the argument Mrs.
Hayden took the axe from me
and tried to show me how to do
it," police quoted her as say
ing. "She continued arguing
with me and I took the axe
from her and struck her on the
head. She didn't fall after I
struck her once, and then I
struck her again and again."
Nerves on Edge
Miss King, who first told of
ficers she was vacuuming in an
other part of the house when
the murder was committed, said
her nerves had been on edge
since, her common-law husband
of the two years had left her.
It was her screams that brought
six landscape . workers rushing
to the blood-spattered kitchen.
Police said the young maid
rushed upstairs after the mur
der and pulled open dresser
drawers in an attempt to make
it appear the house was burglar
ized. Then she returned to the
kitchen and started to scream.

Seeking Senatorship
Sacramento, Calif. (U.R)

running for U. S. senator in his
state of Washington next year
if President Eisenhower wanted
him to make the race.

a councilman and as mayor of
Seattle" Langlie said. "But I am
willing to do anything tne Presi
dent wishes me to do to help
him in his administration."
The governor made fhis com
ments prior to his return to Oly
