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

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."

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

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.

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.

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

Normally, when one cop
meets another, they tilt their
hats back 'exchange smokes and
commiserate. But not the Rus

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.' In the car
