Stevenson Started H-Bomb
Controversy 6 Months Ago
Cnicago U.R) The H-bomb
issue, hottest question of the
presidential campaign, had its
beginning six months ago on
April 21.
At that time. Adlai E. Steven
son came out for action to halt
hydrogen bomb tests in a non
political speech before the an
nual meeting of the American
Society of Newspaper Editors in
Washington, D.C.
Deroted 217 Words
He devoted just 217 words of
speech attacking the Republi
can foreign policy to the subject
of H-bomb tests.
After criticizing GOP policy,
Stevenson gave some of his own
Ideas. One was that this nation

sideration to stopping further
tests of the hydrogen bomb.
"As a layman I question the
sense of multiplying the enlarg
ing weapons of a destructive
power already almost incompre
hensible," Stevenson said.
"Of course," he continued, "1
would call upon other nations
to follow our lead, and if they
don't, and persist in further
tests, we will know about it and
can reconsider our foreign
policy."
Began Talking Again
It wasn't long after Stevenson
won the Democratic presidential
nomination in August that he
began talking about H-bomb
tests again. t
Recalling his April proposal,
Stevenson told American Legion
conventioneers in Los Angeles
Sept. that other nations had an
nounced they would be willing
to limit H-bomb tests.
Since then, Stevenson has
plugged away at the same theme
in speeches across the country
at St. Louis, Minneapolis. Seat
tle, San Diego, Cincinnati, and
elsewhere.

Nixon Schedules
Four Appearances
In Illinois Today
En Route With Nixon U.B
Vice President Richard M.
Nixon shifted his "mop-up"
campaign to Illinois today.
I Nixon scheduled four "whistle
'stop appearances in the home
state of Democratic nominee Ad
:lai E. Stevenson, before aban
doning his campaign train in
Chicago late today.
Sees Michigan Victory
After winding up a day and a
half of campaigning in Michi
gan, he predicted the state will
be in the GOP column on Nov.
1-6 as it was four years ago.
But in Illinois, Republicans
are reported to be on the de
fensive generally as a result of
state house scandals surround
ing the conviction of former
state Auditor Orville Hodge for
embezzlement of state funds.
Twenty-seven prized presi
dential electoral votes are at
stake in Illinois a State car
ried by Mr. Eisenhower in' 1952.
Republican Sen. ' Everett M.
Dirksen and Gov. William G.
Stratton are also up for reelec
tion. Nixon may be drawn into the
debate over the Hodge affair.
He got a taste of it during a rally
at Kalamazoo, Mich., Tuesday
when someone raised a placard
asking: "Hodge and Stratton,
what about it?"
Dishonesty Cleaned Up
Nixon noted the sign and de
clared: "When we find dishon
esty we clean it up rather than
cover it up."
Nixon's train stops in Illin
ois include Southern Illinois
University at Carbonville. Cen
tralia. Champaign and Kanka
kee. He is scheduled for a rally
at Evansfkn tonight.
Old Trading Post
Found at Niagara
Lewiston, N. Y. (U.B His
torians claim "the find of the
century" in an excavation about
500 feet from the Lewiston
Queenston Bridge spanning the
Niagara River.
In bulldozing operations for
expansion of a motel, workers
uncovered the site of the first
permanent-type structure in the
whole Niagara Frontier area. It
was a trading post built by
Jon Caire in 1720. Caire was
the French trader who set up the
first permanent settlement in
Buffalo.
Post holes gave the clue to
the site along with Indian and
French artifacts dug up. More
than 600 post holes were found
in an area 70 by 35 feet. Struc
ture of the soil has made it pos
sible to spot the post holes.
The British burned the post
in 1759. and charred wood and
silt settled in the holes as wood
decayed. The black silt and char
coal traces still show up in the
red clay.
Posts dug up are squared off
at the bottom, showing French
construction with saws. Among
the artifacts found were an In
dian ring made of three or four
spiral bonds, a typical French
bracelet from the continent, ar
row heads, flints, pipes, bits of
china and musket balls.
