Ike's Spoaking Tour Called Undisguised Political Venture By LYLE C. WILSON United Press Correspondtnt Washington (U.R; The Eisenhower-Nixon combination with which the Republicans fi nally won in 1952 looks very much this week like a team which is ready to run again. Or maybe, like a team which al ready is running. President Eisenhower is on a three-state, eight-speech swing through New England, an un disguised political venture into areas where Republican fences need some glitter glamor paint. Vice - President Richard M. Nixon is in the news as having discovered that he will be able, after all, to attend the conven tion of the politically hot Na tional Association for the Ad vancement of Colored People in Atlantic City Sunday. " Pretty Mrs. Patricia Nixon had booked the vice-president for Sunday some time ago. When- the NAACP invitation arrived, Nix on thought he had better keep " the date made by his wife. It is fair to assume that someone had a long second thought. The vice president will be conspicuously nrpspnt at thp rnnventinn of the most powerful organization of colored voters in the United States. Of such moves the game of Admiral Momsen Asks Retirement; Heads Secret Group Pearl Harbor, T. H. (U.R) Read Adm. Charles B. Momsen, commander of super-secret Joint Task Force Seven which con ducts atomic 'and hydrogen tests in the Pacific, has requested re tirement from the Navy effec tive about Sept. 1. The 59-year-old admiral gave no reason for his action and did not indicate his future plans. Momsen, a Naval Academy graduate in 1919, has headed Task Force Seven since July, 1954. New Tests Predicted There have been no announc ed tests under his command, but unconfirmed reports indicate new atomic or hydrogen tests will be made in the Marshall .Tel artrlc cAmotimo hic -f al I The admiral is probably best known as the developer of the famed Momsen lung used by submarine seamen to escape vessels trapped underwater. He received the Navy Cross during World War II for form ing submarine wolfpacks which penetrated deep into Japanese waters. His first foray took him into East China waters where he sank five Japanese ships and damaged nine others. STILL NO WORD Honk Kong (U.R) The three Americans who changed their minds about Communism failed to show on today's train from Canton and the U. S. consulate here decided to await more defi nite word before sending an of ficial to the Chinese Communist border again. politics is made. The shift in 1936 of millions of Northern Negro voters to the Democratic ticket was a major factor in making the Republicans a min ority party in this country. One the of the main objectives of Republican strategists is to re gain the Negro vote. It is the balance of power, in any close election in all Northern indust rial states. It was not by chance that Nixon changed his mind about the NAACP convention. Mr. Eisenhower may not be kissing babies, but he began his New England swing with a chicken barbecue in Rutland, Vt., which is almost as good. He will visit Maine and New Hamp shire and work in a week end of fishing before returning to Washington. There is friction within some state Republican or ganizations in New England, no tably in New Hampshire. The measure of Republican trouble in Maine was evident last November when the state elected Edmund S. Muskie to be governor. He's a Democrat. When any President commits himself to an eight-speech pro gram within the span of a few days, he means business. The business now is to hot up New England's Republican fires. Old Plans Back in January the Presi dent said he would not venture more than two hours by airplane from Washington for two or three months. Formosa was' crit ical then and, further, Mr. Eis enhower wanted to maintain a close contact with the new Con gress as it began to consider his legislative program. He feels freer now to move about. He will be under much pressure to go elsewhere among the states on fence-mending ex peditions. Mr. Eisenhower has said he would reveal his politi cal intentions next spring. Mean time, the draft-Ike movement got a good start last February from New York's National Republican club. - At about the same time an anti-Eisenhower group of Repub licans assembled in Chicago to hear speeches by Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy (R-Wis.), Sen. George W. Malone (R-Nev.), and Gov. J. Bracken Lee, of Utah. Not much has come of that. Tell-Tale Vote The weakness of the Chicago no-confidence campaign against Mr. Eisenhower was demonstrat ed in a Senate vote yesterday. A McCarthy resolution seeking to require the President to force the issue of satellite countries at the forthcoming Big Four conference was licked, 74 to 4. The four were: McCarthy, Malone, Sen. Wil liam E. Jenner (R-Ind.), and Sen. William Langer (R-N.D.). The petition of the Young Re publicans convention that he seek a second term reached the President as he was about .to depart for New England. There are some dissenters. But most party leaders apparently want to renominate Mr. Eisenhower. He can have it if he will take it. The draft band wagon is roll ing. The President has not been heard hollering "Whoa." shower the bride with perfect-fitting Wle-sliAMfifir stockiw in her own personal leg-size 135.1.95 . rn CUP '-Ay"; NEW ARMY SECRETARY President Eisenhower, wait ing to board his plane in Washington for New England, congratulates former Michigan governor, Wilbur M. Brucker, after naming him Army secretary to replace Robert T. Stevens, who resigned for "personal reasons." Brucker is general counsel of the Defense Department. The President accepted Stevens' resignation "with deep regret" and gratefulness for Stevens' devotion to duty. In The Day's By FRANK JENKINS In its last installment, this space dealt with Oregon's state parks, their present status and their possible future. Let's con sider today the highway situa tion. ' OREGON is completing this year an extensive program of new construction, betterment and modernization of its high way system made possible by the, bond issue sanctioned by the people several years ago. The bond issue was made ne cessary by the situation that arose out of the- war period. During the war, comparatively little new construction could be undertaken. We were fighting for our lives, and our major ef fort had to be devoted to achiev ing victory. So our highways wore out faster than they could be replaced. When the end of the war came, our revenues were not sufficient for both mainte nance and replacement to take care of heavier traffic. ... TF these needs were to be met, new capitol had to be pro vided. A LOT of it had to be pro vided QUICKLY. Borrowing against the future seemed the only feasible method. The bond issue provided the needed new capital. TY the end of this year, the bond money will have been spent. It has been EFFICIENT LY spent. Tremendous strides have been made in the way of bringing Oregon's highway sys tem up to modern standards. But Oregon continues to grow. Traffic on Oregon's highways continues to grow. What of the future. . A great deal depends on the federal highway program that is now before congress. Two plans are under considera tion: 1. The President's plan. 2. The substitute plan pro pased by Senator Gore. Looking at the situation from BREV MODITE DUCHESS (purple edge) (greesedge) (red edge) for slender for iverage- forulL or small legt . i leg?. larger lep. Siws 8 to 1014 Si 8fc to 11 Sin. 9 to News the standpoint of Oregon, it shapes up about like this: Under the President's plan, Oregon will get about six million dollars MORE in the way of new con struction, and will put up about eight million dollars LESS in the way of match money. Also, under the President's plan, Oregon will get credit for some 50 million dollars it has spent on reconstruction and modernization' of its interstate highways such as 99, 30 and 101. T OOKING at it from this realis tic standpoint, Oregon's real istic highway commissioners and their realistic highway engineer, Sam Baldock, prefer the Presi dent's plan. . There is no politics in their preference. They just think that under the Presidents plan Ore gon will et more roads. . f HE Gore plan is generally re- - ferred to as a pay-as-you-go plan. The President's plan in volves a federal bond issue. But The Gore plan proposes to spend about a billion dollars more per year than will be taken in from the special taxes that will be provided to support it. ' ' So The Gore plan" will involve DEFICIT financing. That is to say, it will involve GOING INTO DEBT exactly the same as. if it contemplated the issuance of bonds. In either event, the debt will have to be paid with taxes col lected from the people. FROM the standpoint of ulti , mate results, it will be six of one and half a dozen of the other so far as increase, of the federal debt is concerned.' And Under the President's plan, Oregon will get a whale of a lot more money for new highways. That is the reasoning that leads Oregon's highway commission ers and their able and compe tent chief engineer to prefer the President's plan. To me, it sounds like realis tic reasoning. as tr lltt Christian Faith Is World's Hope, Rep. Judd States San Francisco (U.R) Rep. Walter H. Judd (R-Minn.) told delegates to the Young People's Luther League international con vention last night that Christian faith holds the only hope for lasting world unity. The group planned its week long 16th biennial convention to coincide with the 10th anniver sary meeting of the United Na tions now in progress here. Similar Goals Judd, the ranking GOP mem ber of the House Foreign Rela tions Committee, told the 7000 young delegates that "Down the street are meeting 60 nations to discuss world problems and to deal with them. "We are doing the same here, and I would rather talk to you because there is more hope here," he said. "They say the United Nations is all right, but that there is no mutual trust and unity of purpose. Here you are dealing with things that will develop mutual trust and unity of purpose." Earlier in the day, the Rev. W. Gordon Smedsrud of Ames, la., told the young Lutherans to "evangelize everywhere in the foreign mission field, in our own country, at home, at the house next door." On the Offensive Smedsrud told the delegates from all parts of the United States and Canada that that church is on the offensive, and not a defensive organization to protect the status quo. "God has never had any other purpose than to add day by day to his triumphal procession," the minister, said. "You don't keep the water of life by trap ping it in your own little cis tern. God has never made a Christian without making a mis sionary." . The convention ends Sunday.

Thursday. June 23, ISSS Backstairs: Fish, Cars, Soviet By MERRIMAN SMITH I'nited Press White House Writer Concorn, N.H. (U.R) Back stairs at the traveling " White House: Presidenf Eisenhower has to use heavier fishing gear in the New England lakes than he nor mally does in the Colorado streams. And, in turn, the fish are larger. The Chrysler Corporation air shipped a brilliant green, four door touring car from Michigan to San Francisco for Mr. Eisen hower's use when he visited the ceremonial session of the United Nations earlier this week. The same car was made avail able to the President: in 1953 when he visited the Black Hills of South Dakota. The phaeton is one of the more opulent automobiles of America and is not for sale to common folks. It is strictly a custom job built largely for ex perimental and show purposes. Agents of the U. S. Secret Service were interested! to put it mildly, in the unsmiling and somewhat stern behavior of the Russian secref agents who ac comoanied Soviet Foreign Minis ter V. M. Molotov to San Fran cisco.

The Soviet agents would not even stand near the American agents while Molotov was inside the Veterans Memorial Building at a reception given by the President. The Russian opera tives walked out into a wooded plaza to smoke and had nothing but careful glances for their American counterparts. The Russian agents were not hard to spot in the crowd around the Veterans Building and the adjacent San Francisco Opera House. Their square-cut clothes and dreadfully" serious facial ex pressions were quite obvious, even in a mob. . And for secret police, they still have something to learn. Their .45 automatics bulge quite visibly. The men charged with the pro tection of Mr. Eisenhower do not carry automatic hand guns, only revolvers which are. much more reliable and faster on the possibly crucial first shot than an automatic pistol.'
