Wladyslaw Gomulka and two of
his once-imprisoned colleagues
to power. It was the first major
political realignment since the
Poznan riots.
The Central committee of the
Polish United Workers (Commu
nist)" party elected four new
members at its long-awaueu
plenary session. The 58-year-old
Gomulka was one o them.
Allies Before Purge
The other three were political
allies of Gomulka's up to the
time of his purge during the
1948 Titoist upheaval, and two
of them went to prison with
him then.
Gomulka's 'restoration to the
Communist leadership has long
been expected. It was believed
now he would be further pro

the Central committee and pos

Marian Spychalski, purged ad

O. H. Bengtson has announced
that he will not be a candidate

Thousands of persons jammed

get a glimpse of the President
and the first lady as they rode

airport in the specially built
glass domed car.
Defends Partnership
In his major address to a na
tional radio and television audi
ence last night, the president
staunchly defended his admin
istration's partnership power
policy and lashed out sharply
at Democratic charges of "giveaway."
"Our partnership policy is de
signed to meet great and grow
ing needs. Power requirements
for the next ten years will cost
$40 billion.
'There is not and there will
not be that much federal money
to be distributed in such a per
iod," the president said. "Only
Ihe partnership program can do
the job that must be done
quickly and efficiently."
Praises McKay
The president recommended
the election of Douglas McKay
to the Senate in both his after
noon and evening appearances
"In this political business, I
commend to you just one thing
Honesty just . jipin honesty..
Mr. Eisenhower said.
"I don't think honesty is so
rare that you have to pin a big
medal on the man who has it.
But I do insist over and over
again put' someone in public
office on whose word you can
depend."
"I therefore bring this word
to vou in that connection
Douglas McKay," the president
told his loudly cheering and ap-
lauding audience.
At the afternoon meeting at
the Auditorium, the president
said, "My eyes are full of con
fetti and I left my voice out
at the airport. It was a joyous
route."
Secret service men accompa
nying the president had a shaky
moment last night.
Explodes Like Shot
About two minutes before the
President entered the Mult
nomah hotel someone dropped l
a light bulb from an upper
story room of the hotel and it
exploded like a shot. A check
failed to turn up the person.
Six little girls from Astoria
stirred up enthusiasm at the air
port as they passed out McKay
buttons with the word "Ike" in
its center. Tins group calico
themselves the . "McKay Hops."
Another group, the "McKay-

chanting, "Hey, hey, whattya

Lockheed Accused
Of Seeking Captive
Audience for Ike
Los Angeles J.R Rep.
Clair Encle (D-Calif.) today ac
cused Lockheed Aircraft Co., of
"spending- more than S2o,000 ot
the taxpayers' money to build a
captive audience" for a cam
paign speech by President Eisen
hower.
The congressman, California
chairman of the Stevenson-Ke-fauver
campaign, said the air
craft company at nearby Bur
bank planned to shut down as
sembly lines and give employees
time' off with pay to attend Mr
Eisenhower's speech at Burbank
Airport. -" - ""
To Go Over PA System -'
Engle charged that the speech
also was scheduled to be aired
by a public address system
throughout the plant. He said
the work stoppage would result
in a loss of more than $25,000 to
taxpayers.
"When Gov. Stevenson was
here this spring, Lockheed offi
cials not only failed to stop work
at the plant to permit workers
to hear him, but even refused
him permission to visit the
plant," Engle said.
Said in Bad Taste
"It is bad taste and unethical
of ihe company to deliver a
block of voters to any political
candidate," John Snider, ma
chinists' union president, said.
The aircraft company denied
the President's speech was being
"forced on anyone." A company
spokesman said "anyone who
does not wish to listen to Mr.
Eisenhower could go to lunch."

Arson Suspected
In University
Dormitory Blaze
Fourth Fire in Week
On Idaho U. Campus
Moscow, Ida. (U.R) Three
University of Idaho students
were killed today in a dormitory
fire which investigators said ap
parently was the, work of an
arsonist.
The university identified the
victims as John R. Knudson, IB
Idaho Falls, freshman in pre
veterinary medicine; William
Clair Shuldberg. 18. lerreton
freshman in business, and Paul F.
Johnson, 18, Davenport, Wash.,
sophomore in history.
They were suitocatea ana
burned when the flames, which
started in a second-floor lounge
of Gait Hall, swept up the stair
ways and trapped them on the
fourth floor.
Gasoline Started
"The flash nature of the fire
indicates arson," Moscow Fire
Chief Carl Smith said. "The way
the fire shot up with such ter
rific heat indicates it must have
had a petroleum base. Some sort
of petroleum, perhaps gasoline,
anoarentlv had been spread in
the lounee before the fire
started."
It was the fourth dormitory
blaze within a week on the
campus. Fire Chief Carl Smith
said- the previous fires, which
caused about $3,000 damage, had
been set.
"This one stacks up with the
rest of them," Smith said.
Starts in Lounge
The fire broke out about 2:15
a.m. in tne downstairs iuuusc
of Gait Hall, a new four-story
men s dormitory, ine concrete
and brick structure had been
termed fireproof.
Most of the dormitory resi
dents fled outdoors into the near
freezing weather. The victims
were trapped on the upper floor.
Four other students narrowly
escaped death. Two of them
Himhprt down a firetruck lad
der. Two others' made their way
un a rone to the roof from where
they were able to. jump to the
roof of heighbbring Upham Hall.
More than 1,000 students aid
ed firemen in battling the blaze.
They brought it under control
in about 45 minutes.
The three other fires occurred
last week end during homecom
ing lestiviiies. ine nrst was uia
covered early Friday at Willis
Sweet Hall. It damaged two
davenports, a window casing
drapes. The same damage was
caused by a fire early Saturday
at Chrisman Hall. The third was
discovered in Chrisman Hall
Sunday, but there was no dam
age. Gait Hall was the newest
men's dormitory on the campus.
The $500,000 ultramodern struc
ture was opened only a year
ago. It housed 130 students.
Prosecutor Lloyd Martinson
said he was conducting an all
out investigation" of the fire.

Trivialities Raised to Defeat Morse, Neuberger Says
I I lallllWJ m.w . , utilities and sk
SENATOR NEUBERGER
Speaking At Esquire
"The Republicans have no is
sues on which to campaign so
they're raising trivialities in an
attempt to defeat Sen. Wayne
Morse," U.S. Sen. Richard L.
Ncuberg'cr told about 175 people
at Democratic headquarters here
last night.
Neuberger is in Medford to
day attending a Rogue river
flood control hearing. He and his
wife, Maurine, arrived about ju
minutes late for the speaking
engagement last night. They had
spent -the day in Klamath Falls
here the junior senator attena-
prf a hearing on Indian affairs.
An example of the trivialities
the GOPs are using agamsi
Morse is the fact that he is not a
war veteran, Neuberger said. He
pointed out that Morse had
wanted to enlist in World War
II. but President Roosevelt urg
ed him to stay on the war labor
board.
"Republicans like Thomas E.
Dewey, Senator Robert Taft and
Arthur Vandenberg were not
veterans," he said. "Why is this
requirement suddenly applied
only to Wayne Morse"
In further defense of Morse.
Neuberger declared, "the Doug
las McKay campaign has shown
its poverty of real issues by
raising empty protests against
the fact that Morse was not born
in Oregon." A show of hands in
dicated about 85 per cent of the
audience had not been born in
Oregon.
"The Republicans overlook
the fact that Oregon Republican
mncressmen were born outside
the state as well as the Republi-,
can candidate for governor. Ap
parently, it is the Republican be
lief that only Democrats must
be born within our boundaries
to qualify for public office."
The speaker also cast a ques
tion "on Republican campaign
funds. He said, "Much of the
money spent for expensive prints
ing advertising, postage, radio
and television time on behalf of
McKay is done under the name
of the Oregon State Republican
committee, rather than the Mc
Kay for Senator committee, in
an effort to obscure the flood of
dollars going directly into the
McKay campaign."
He said a similar device was
used by the Republicans in the
1954 campaign when Citizens
for Eisenhower spent $37,572.
"This sum was used mostly on
behalf of Guy Cordon because
as everyone knows Eisenhower
was not a candidate in that elec
tion. This method was used to
keep Cordon's name isolated
from the total actually spent in
his behalf."
The senator added, Cordon s
supporters posed him as a great
friend of public power in the
1954 campaign, but this spring
the records of the Federal Power
commission showed he received
nearly $30,000 in fees from pri
vate power companies in the
year following his election de
feat." Defending Sen. Morse s voting
attendance record, he said
"Morse's attendance record has
been outstanding and better than
the record of Oregon Congress
man Walter Norblad." Consider
able applause and laughter fol
lowed his statement, "When the
Republicans are absent it's just
hecause they would
vote wrong anyhow."
Neuberger said he was puz
zled by charges that Sen. Morse
talks too much. "What does a
senator do except talk or write,"
he asked. "Maybe Douglas Mc
Kay would go to the senate with
a pick and shovel. Everyone
would say, 'Look at McKay. He
doesn't talk like the rest of the
senators. Instead he digs a big
hole in the floor.' " Several min
utes later, when laughter sub
sided, Neuberger declared "The
Republican campaign just
rinesn't appeal to your intelli
gence, but instead, belittles your
intelligence."
The senator also came out in.
favor of the Democratic candi
date for governor, Robert
Holmes. He stated Holmes naa
favored the minimum teachers
salary program, program for
teachers sick leave, a four-year
liberal arts course at Portland
State college and endorsement
of the UN during the Korean
conflict. He declared that Elmo
Smith had voted against all
these issues. "He won't discuss
his votinE record. All he does is
Droclaim weeks," Neuberger
stated.
The speaker emphasized his
belief that the agriculture and
lumbering programs in Oregon
have suffered under the present
administration. He added, "The
present administration has end
ed the low cost Columbia river
power program."
Neuberger said, "Congressman
Harris Ellsworth supported a
new $786,000,000 power project
in Colorado, yet claimed the
Hells Canyon dam project was
socialistic. The Republicans have
opposed federal power projects
in Oregon, while private com
rianies have been getting rich.
This is whipped iream for pri
vate utilities and skim milk for
the people, he remarked.
"There are 22 senators in the
11 wpstprn states. Eleven of
them, all Democrats, voted for a
high Hells Canyon dam. The 11
Republicans VOIUU asainai. ,
he'said.
Tt conclusion, the junior sena
tor commented, "The Republi
can party used to stand for a
great deal. It doesn't stand for
anything that is good for the
people now.
Following Neuberger's ad
dress, Mrs. Neuberger spoke for
about five minutes on the near
ins at Klamath Falls. "It was in-
tprrstine." she said, "to note
how much more interesting the
hearing was to the senator irom
Montana (Sen. James Murray
than to the congressman from
that district (Harris Ellsworth.
