Q O Friday, December S, 1933 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBTTME KXKS ministration Campaigns for Stronger, rosperous Free World lore Back Stairs: Ike Does Lot of Reading By FRANK ELEAZER Gettysburg, Pa. (U.R) Back stairs at the Gettysburg White House: q President Eisenhower has more time these days to read the papers, and his intimates say he's been doing a lot of it. He con centrates mostly on the big east ern papers that are quickly avail able here. O He reportedly is reading now some of the opinion, columns as well as news. One thing Mr. Eisenhower is said to be (following closely are reports on speeches and remarks Whgat (or Christmas Urged Jjy Churchman Washington CUR) A leading Catplic prelate appealed to the govemmeiQO today to make a Christmas gift of surplus grain to hungry people in other lands. "Our country should manifest especially at this holy season of the year its traditional spirit rf rharitv loamorl frnm f,,T Savior, towards all those who hunger," said Archbishop Pat rick A. O'Boyle of Washington. The archbishop's statement was the latest in a series of urgent pleas from church lead ers for release of some of the government's vast hoard of sur plus wheat, rice and com to be distributed to needy families overseas by voluntary relief agencies. Public Law 480, passed by Congress last year, gives Secre tary of Agriculture Ezra T. Ben son broad discretionary author ity to release all types of farm surpluses to relief agancies for free shipment abroad. of Adlai E. Stevenson and Gov. Averell Harriman of New York, whom he regards as better indi cators of Democratic thought than former President Truman. He has been catching Steven son and Harriman on television whenever possible. He hasn't looked for any broadcasts by Mr. Truman. Friends says he now views his predecessor as "hopeless partisan." Mr. Eisenhower is not much of a radio and TV fan. He listens or looks only when something special is on. His main tipster in these matters is Mrs. Eisen hower, who is an avid follower of both media. Debate has been going on among the President's advisers whether he should deliver per sonally at least part of his state of the union message to Con gress in January. Latest word is that he prob ably wont' attempt it, but will leave the whole thing to reading clerks. Congressional leaders have told the President there is a great body of precedents for this, and that nobody will object if he saves the considerable Nobel Physics Prize Winners in Stockholm Stockholm, Sweden (U.R) The 'two American co-winners of the 1955 Nobel Prize for physics arrived in Stockholm Thursday to receive their award from King Gustaf Adolf in cere monies Saturday. Profs. Polykarp Kusch of Co lumbia University and Willies E. Lamb of Stanford University were accompanied by their wives. They will stay about a week. strength required for a formal appearance of this kind. Don't write off the chance, however, that Mr. Eisenhower may yet decide to appear brief ly before a joint session, say a few words, and then turn the reading over to someone else. The thing that excites Mr. Eisenhower most about his farm here is the prospect of improv ing the soil. He told callers the other day that a survey of his land showed that "two thirds of my top soil is now in the Atlantic Ocean." He said he deliberately bought a farm "in a sort of worn-out condition" to see if he couldn't leave it in better shape than he found it. The way things are going, the President undoubtedly will suc ceed in this aim. Where the place formerly was heavily row-cropped, he is putting more of it into pasture. The crops, meantime are be ing planted in alternating strips, so they can be changed from year to year. Mr. Eisenhower, recovering nicely from his heart attack, gets only mild sedatives these days and he's pretty much his own judge as to when he needs them. If he wakes in the night and can't go back to sleep, he has a tablet or capsule handy by his bed. FOUND DEAD WOMAN Pittsburgs (U.R) Police sent a squad car to a Pittsburgh home Thursday to investigate a report that a dead woman was in the house. A few minutes later, one of the investigating officers ra dioed back that the report cer tainly was correct. "She's laid out in a funeral home," he snapped. k GUARANTEED 1 1- SAFE! .

Secretary of State John Fos ter Dulles spelled out this policy of peaceful strength Thursday night in a major speech before the Illinois Manufacturers' As sociation in Chicago. The administration strategy, which includes the ever-ready threat of "massive retaliation" against Communist aggression, is this country's answer to the stalemate at the Geneva foreign ministers conference. If not followed, Dulles warn ed, Russia will switch back to a program of violence in world af fairs. To carry out its strategy, Dulles said, the United States will work for stronger free world defenses and new funds for foreign aid. Price of Peace The ability to hit back with atomic weapons is an "indispen sable price of peace" and part of the military defense, Dulles said, while the new foreign aid funds will be sought to help Asians and other nations facing new Soviet exploitation. Dulles put much stress on the problem of Asia where, he said, touring Russian leaders now are pur veying "guile" and "false prom ises." He said he is sure India and other nations will not suc cumb to their "false promises." Extraordinary importance was attached to Dulles' somewhat "tough" speech. It was delivered only a few hours after the secre tary met at Camp David, Md., with President Eisenhower and the top-level National Security Council. It came just ahead of next Tuesday's Eisenhower Dulles meeting at the White House with congressional lead ers. Behind Dulles' speech, offic ials said, is administration alarm at the rapid strides Russia has been making in recent months in developing its nuclear might. Dulles said a two-way "foun dation for peace" of alliances and retaliatory power forced the Russians to give up violence which marked the last 10 years of East-West relations. Now the Soviet rulers, he said, have pick ed the less-developed areas as "targets of their guile." He said the administration would ask the next Congress for new economic aid funds. He gave no figure but officials said it would be about the same as this year's outlay $1,600,000, 000. About 80 per cent would go to the Far East and the Middle East where Soviet activities are concentrated.

Main PHONE 2-2456 We Carry Our Own Contracts February Draft Call Placed at 6000 Men Washington (U.R) The De fense department today an nounced a draft call of 6000 men for February the lowest draft call since the ' start of the Ko rean war. The Defense department at the same time said that the pre viously announced draft call for January is being reduced from 8000 to 6000 men. The reduction in draft calls reflected two factors: High Navy reenlistments permitting the service not to use the draft in February, and the continuing re duction in Army strength. Army officials said that draft calls can be expected to run at about 6000 men during the first six months of the coming year. Search Resumed for Pairol Bomber Crew Honolulu (U.R) Two planes resumed a search today for seven crewmen of a Navy Nep tune patrol bomber that crash ed Wednesday into the sea dur ing a low-level maneuver off Kauai Island. .
