Stevenson met with his run
ning mate. Sen. Estes Kefauver,
late Sunday to compare notes on
their recent campaign experi
ences. Kefauver, who was sched
uled to leave today on a vote
bidding trip through the South
west, said afterwards, "things
are looking fine; we're making
good progress everywhere."
Receive! Optimistic Report
Earlier. Kefauver and Steven
son conferred with Roger Ste
vens, finance chairman of the
Stevenson - Kefauver Campaign
Committee. While results of this
meeting were not divulged, the
Democratic presidential nominee
received an optimistic report
that voluntary contributions to
his campaign are pouring it at
more than 20 times the rate of
his unsuccessful 1952 race.
Stevenson and Kefauver had
not had a chance to review their
campaign strategy for about two
weeks. Stevenson's press secre
tary, Clayton Fritchey, said in
advance that they would "com
pare a few notes."
Fritchey also announced that
Stevenson has named Mrs. Eu
genie Anderson of Red Wing,
Minn., as a member of his cam
paign advisory staff. She was
the first U.S. woman ambassa
dor. She was named to represent
this country in Denmark in 1949

community of Lincoln.
Fitzpatrick entered a bar just
before the 3 a.m. Sunday clos
ing time for a few drinks with
old friends.
Police, who disapprove of peo
ple who park near hydrants,
soon arrested the pilot.
Authorities agreed that it was
quite an aeronautical feat. The
plane, which has a landing speed
of 50 miles an hour and a wing
spread of 32 feet 10 inches,
glided between buildings which
are 100 feet apart. The street,
which was lined with parked
cars, was free of normally heavy
daytime traffic.

Soviet Leaders Get
Tito, Gero Face to
Face at Conference
London (U.R) The Soviet
leaders brought Yugoslavia's
Marshal Tito and Hungary's
Erno Gero face to face today in
Yalta in an apparent effort to
make them end their long stand
ing feud.
Moscow radio announced that
Gero and Soviet Premier Niko
lai Bulganin had joined Tito,
Soviet Communist Party leader
Nikita S. Khrushchev and secur
ity chief Gen. Ivan Serov in the
mysterious Communist goings on
in the Crimea.
The Moscow broadcast made it
sound like a pleasant summer
outing with a party of 20 or so
high Communists and their
wives strolling along the beach
and sitting down to a luxurious
meal. But there were growing
indications the meeting was
brought on by a maior schism in
the Communist party.
More Friendly
Tito has become more friendly
in recent months with most of
the Communist satellites. But he
has remainrd cool to Hungary
and Albania, his neighbors who
were second only to Russia in
attacking him when he broke
with Josef Stalin.
The Communists earlier "ap
peased" Tito by ousting his arch
enemy, Malyas Rakosi, as head
of the Communist party in Hun
gary and replacing him with
Gero. But Tito has never indi
cated any great fondness for
Gero who has made little radi
cal changes in Hungarian policy.
Rakosi was dismissed for be
ing too strong a Stalin man for
following too closely the "cult
of the individual." Many obser
vers consider Gero equally as
pro-Stalin and say that is why
Hungarian Yugoslav relations
have not improved.

With Heavy Docket
500 Appeals, Motions
Set for Consideration
Washington (U.R) The
Supreme Court formally conven
ed its 1956-57 session today. It
faces one of the heaviest dock
ets in history.
The 25-minute session was de
voted to the usual opening day
formalities.
Chief Justice Earl Warren,
starting his fourth year on the
high court, presided in a warm
and friendly manner. He first

his health.
The nearly 500 appeals and
motions filed since last June

court. They tlso put before the
court a number of questions that
have far reaching effects in the
field of civii rights, state and

Industries Operate
On Substitute Power
Portland (U.R) Thirteen
big Northwest industries were
operating with substitute power
today after the Bonneville Pow
er Administration cut off 500,
000 kilowatts of interruptible
power to them.
The cutoff was made neces
sary because of low water con
ditions. The metallurgical industries
were operating on 100,000 kilo
watts of California-Oregon Pow
er company energy and some
400,000 kilowatts of federal pow
er from early release of storage
water in Hungry Horse reser
voir. The industries agreed to re
place the amount of Hungry
Horse power they use this month
if the big reservoir does not fill
up next spring.
BPA said that the Hungry
Horse arrangements make it pos-1
sible to take care of the big
customers under any circum

Interruptible power is that as
signed to industries under con

be cut off if conditions necessi

Ike's Strong Blast
Shows Toughening
Up of His Campaign
Speaks at Cleveland's
Broad Public Square
Cleveland, Ohio (U.R) Prest
kent Eisenhower, using the
liarshcstwords of his campaign,
today accused the Democrats of
condoning "paycheck robbery"
by not doing enough to halt in
flation. He also accused them of filling
the voters' heads with "wicked
nonsense" about his administra
tion ard with "fancied ills"
about the state of the nation.
And he said the last time they
were in power "special favorit
ism, cronyism and laxity"
reigned in Washington.
Mr. Eisenhower's strong blasts
at the opposition party were con
tained in a campaign address pre
pared for delivery today in
Cleveland's broad Public
Square. The speech marked the
first time the Chief Executive
has, in political parlance, fully
"opened up" on the Democrats
in this campaign.
He will follow it up with a
second address tonight a na
tionwide radio and television,
talk to be delivered at 9:30 p.m.
from the University of Kentucky
Coliseum in Lexington, Ky. it
will be carried by the Columbia
Broadcasting System.
Mora Speeches Added
The barbs used in today's ad
dress, coupled with a White
House announcement Sunday
that more speeches are being
added to the President's itiner
ary, plainly showed Mr. Eisen
hower is toughening up his cam
paign. The new speeches, the
White House said, will be part
of a campaign swing into Minne
sota, Washington and Oregon
Oct. 17-19.
In his attack today on the
Democrats' handling of the in
flation problem, Mr. Eisenhow
er said:
"The men of the opposition
know perfectly well that one of
the main reasons they were
thrown out of office four years
ago was their tolerance of the
thievery of inflation."
He said inflation cut the value
of the average American's pay
check by one-third in a seven-
year period, "yet the opposition
did nothing to stop this economic
thievery and they know it."
"The record shows we not
they (Democrats) have made
the most successful fight to stop
inflation's robbery of every pay
check," he said.
Growing Schedule
The growing campaign sched
ule showed that the President in
tended not only to make addi
tional speeches, but also to help
out in states where he is needed
most to improve chances of the
GOP regaining control of Con
gress. In Cleveland, for instance, the
President will confer with Sen.
George Bender (R-Ohio) who is
fighting for reelection. When he
lands this afternoon in Lexing
ton, he will be met by John Sher
man Cooper and Thurston Mor
ton, both running this year for
Kentucky's two open Senate
seats.
On his trip to the Northwest
Mr. Eisenhower will go into
Washington state where Gov.
Arthur B. Langlie is trying to
defeat the Democratic incum
bent. Sen. Warren Magnuson. He
also will visit Oregon where
former Interior Secretary Doug
las McKay is battling Sen.
Wayne Morse, a converted Demo
crat, for a Senate seat.
