He said the peace and health of the world would be advanced and that he did not think "this nation wants the great decisions about the H-bomb entrusted to Richard M. Nixon." He denied that such an agree ment would deprive the United States of any of its retaliatory striking power. "We would continue to work on defense against attack," he said. "We would strive for the balanced forces needed for the most probable type of conflict. We would be stronger, not weaker."

In a prepared speech Steven son told businessmen today that the Democratic party is their "best friend." Stevenson said he challenged the idea that the GOP is the "party of business' and Demo crats are "anti-business."

Speaks at Luncheon "I believe that the Democratic Party is the best friend Ameri can business has . . .," Stevenson said. His remarks were scheduled for delivery at a businessmen's lunch, the first in a series of six talks he planned for New York and its suburbs today and tonight. Stevenson said two questions lie at the heart of the issue to end hydrogen bomb tests. "One, will the peace and health of the world be advanced if all nations stop exploding hy drogen weapons? The answer is yes. i "Two, would such an agree ment weaken the relative mili tary position of the U. S.? The answer is no." He referred to the awesome capacity for destruction of U. S. nuclear stockpiles and said, "by entering such an agreement, we lose none of our war power.

He accented this point to re fute the Democratic charge that the Republican administration is "dedicated to furthering the interest of big business." "Of course, that is not true," the President told the union banquet audience of about 1,300 people. "If it were true, 1 am sure big business would assert we have failed dismally in our alleged mission." He said that from 1946 through 1952 under a Demo cratic administration corporate profits after taxes averaged 7.7 per cent of the national income. He said since 1953, when he entered office, corporate pro- ! fits after taxes averaged 6 per cent of the national income. Says Income Rises While this has been going on labor's share in the national in come has been rising progres sively," he said. "It is now 70 per cent the highest in the last 20 years." One obvious reason fdr Mr Eisenhower's four-bour appear ance at the carpenters' -union celebration was the fact that Maurice A. Hutcheson, presi dent of the brotherhood, voted in the AFL-CIO Executive Coun cil against endorsing Demo cratic presidential nominee Ad lai Stevenson. Stevenson won the endorsement. Mr. Eisenhower also indicated to the carpenters union that the United States was ready to offer aid to restive Soviet satellites that want it.
