New York Times
Backs Eisenhower;
Criticizes Nixon
New York flJ.R-' The New
York Times today endorsed Pres
ident Eisenhower for reelection
but criticized the GOP choice of
Vice President Richard M. Nixon
as his running mate.
The independent newspaper
supported Mr. Eisenhower in
1952. Its 1956 endorsements ap
peared in an editorial in today's
editions.
Commends'Both Candidates
It commended both the Pres
ident and Adlai Stevenson for
sharinR a middle-of-the-road po
sition and having in common 'a
distrust of extremist positions
and a clearly demonstrated faith
in both the philosophy and meth
od of moderation."
The editorial said there were
two ''persuasive" arguments in
favor of the reelection of the
President:
"First, despite disappoint
ments, there is much in the rec
ord of the Eisenhower adminis
tration that is of real and lasting
value to the country.
"Second, it is a matter of
. major importance that the mod
ernization of the Republican
Party and its rescue from the
rut of reaction into which it had
fallen after 20 years out of pow
er be carried forward another
stage under the leadership of
Mr. Eisenhower.
Nixon Worked Hard
The newspaper said the selec
tion of Nixon was one of the
things which have not gone the
way it wished they might have
gone, but it said Nixon had
worked hard and has grown with
his job.
The editorial said it continued
to hold the opinion that Steven
son was the strongest candidate
the Democratic Party could nom
inate for the presidency. But it
said it sharply disagreed with
Stevenson's statement that selec
tive service might be ended "in
the not far distant future."

Dulles Reiterates
Stand on Aggression
Washington (U.R) Secre
tary of State John Foster Dulles
said today the United States
stands behind its pledges to
help any nation which might be
the victim of aggression in the
Middle East.
Dulles took a grave view, at
his news conference, on rising
tension in the Middle East.
He said Israel's reprisal raids
against Jordan, for example, in
dicate a deterioration of that sit
uation and failure of UN ef
forts earlier this year to ease
the tensions.
Dulles was asked about Presi
dent Eisenhower's April 9 dec
laration that the United Slates
would help a victim of aggres
sion if big trouble broke in that
area. The reporter asked if the
United States still stands ready
to help.
"Yes, that still holds," Dulles
said.
He said the United States
would assist if there were ag
gression, but he did not say how
this would be done.
