EIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Tuesday. October 18. 1936 ai Would Go Anywhere To Confer on End of H-iomh Test Chicago (U.Ri Adlai Stevenson pledged Monday night to go any place and con fer at any level to halt H-bomb tests if he is eletced president. The pledge, made in a nation wide radio and television ad dress, immediately recalled President Eisenhower's drama tic announcement in 1952 that he, if elected, would go to Ko rea to seek some method of end ing the then stalemated Korean war. Stevenson said he would un dertake personal negotiation of an agreement with the Soviet Union, Great Britain and other atomic powers to halt H-bomb tests immediately. "I would do this by confer ence and consultation at what ever level in whatever place the circumstances might suggest would be most fruitful." he said. E. The Stevenson proposal was backed up immediately and on the same television program by Sen. Clinton P. Anderson (D N.M.), chairman of the joint Congressional Atomic Energy committee, and Sen. Stuart Sy mington, (D-Mo.), former Air Force secretary and now chair man of the Senate subcommittee on Air Power. Both Anderson and Syming ton agreed firmly with Steven son that halting H-bomb tests would not endanger national defense; that the Eisenhower ad ministration had "distorted" the plan and some immediate steps were necessary to halt the dan gerous spread of radioactive fallout around the world. Stevenson leaves tonight for a four-day train and campaign tour. He was expected to deal again with his proposal plan ill JliiiuJiiiipi an H'jjx FREE!

His schedu called for at least 15 talks. Stevenson Willing Stevenson's willingness to go any place and confer on any lev el necessary to reach an agree ment to halt the bomb tests was prefaced for months by Mr. Eis enhower's publicly professing his own willingness to go any where at any time for interna tional conferences if he believ ed they -would contribute to real world peace. Mr. Eisenhower also has said in recent months, however, that he did not believe a visit to this country by Soviet leaders would serve any currently useful pur pose. Stevenson said Monday night that he was firmly opposed to unilateral disarmament, but h thought the United States could safely take the world lead by stopping her own testing of the larger nuclear explosives while continuing research and even production of the weapon.

(Landis-Shanglc photo) New.Ramblers To Have V8 Engine Detroit (U.R) The 1957 Rambler, featuring a V8 engine during its first year as a sep arate make of car, was introduc ed today by American Motors Corp. The new Rambler goes on sale at dealerships Oct. 25. The car used to be known as the Nash Rambler or Hudson Rambler, depending on which dealer sold it. This year marks the first time the Rambler comes with a V8 engine. It generates 190 horse power and "is designed to give excellent economy, high perfor mance, exceptionally long life and minimum maintenance," ac cording to Roy Abernethy, Am erican Motors vice president 'of distribution and marketing. Sixes Available Also available is a six-cylin der engine, which has been in creased to 125 horsepower. It has an optional dual - throat carburetor, which boosts horse power to 135. Abernathy said the V8 en gine gave the Rambler, which rides on a 108-inch wheelbase, one of the highest power-to- weight ratios in the automobile industry." Six of the 13 new models have the V8 engine. They are the cus tom hardtop station wagon and hardtop sedan, custom and su per station wagons and sedans. ourf Calls Up Obscene Book Case Washington (U.P.) The Su preme Court today called up a challenge to Michigan's law ban ning sale of books containing al legedly obscene language or de scriptions tending to corrupt youth. The case was the first to come before William J. Brennan Jr., as a Supreme Court justice. Brennan was scheduled to be sworn in today and take his place on the bench, succeeding Justice Sherman Minton. The obscene book case started with the arrest by Detroit police of Alfred E. Butler on charges that he sold s copy of "The Devil Rides Outside" by John Griffin. The book contains intimate sex details. The police department said the language tends to corrupt the morals of youth. Butler argued among other things that the statute under which he was charged denies freedom of the press because it allows judging part of a book without consideration of its liter ary merit as a whole.
