. SIX MTOFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday. October 31. 1956 ;-.V. l A- J : ' I Secret Service Agents Will Be Glad When Ike Ends Campaign Washington (U.R) White House Secret Service agents won't talk about it for the record, but they will be glad when President Eisenhower winds up his campaigning for reelection. They have the awesome, around-the-clock responsibility of seeing that no harm comes to the most important head of gov ernment in the world. And their task is much more difficult when he is campaigning as he was this week. And even so, his campaign ing with only airport speeches didn't present the Secret Ser vice agents with nearly so many problems as Mr. Eisenhower's re cent campaign trip to the West Coast with its motorcades through crowds. The agents sometimes relax during a political campaign some of their precautions designed pri marily for the President's pri vacy and convenience. For in stance, news photographers are given more freedom in taking pictures. But the agents always are alert for the President's safety. On in Job More than a score of the agents on the White House de tail accompany the President on extended trips. They relieve each other on eight-hour shifts with a half dozen or so on duty at all times. The traveling de tail also is bolstered by agents stationed in the area visited. The White House refuses to make public the exact number of agents on details of their pre cautionary measures for secur ity reasons. Crowds, with the possibility they may include a person in tent on harming the President, give the Secret Service agents their greatest worries. On motorcades, Mr. Eisenhow er's limousine is preceded by a local police car with one Secret Service agent. Six other agents ride in a special White House car immediately behind the President. When the motorcade slows up or the crowd closes in, four of the agents jump out and run alongside the four fenders of the President's car to smother ELP A WAITED Democrats and Independents Doug McKay Our liabilities arm little time and little money.

Rowley youthful, husky head of the White House Secret Service detail rides in Mr. Eisenhower's car and stays close to him at all other times the President is in public places. The work of the Secret Set vice agents starts days ahead of the actual trip of the Presi dent. One goes ahead in advance to work out with local law en forcement officials the details of protecting the President. The advance agent goes over motorcade routes, inspects places where the President will speak, selects the building entrances he will use and makes numerous other such arrangements all with an eye to the President's safety. Mr. Eisenhower's "bubble top" limousine and the special ones of the Secret Service equipped with running boards and side handles are sent ahead to places where there will be motorcades. A 40-hour, non-stop trip from Minneapolis, Minn., to Los Angeles was necessary for two of them on Mr. Eisen hower's swing to the West Coast. At hotels, agents are posted at all times near the President's suite to screen visitors. One stays in the kitchen from where his food is served. The agents keep a time log on the President's visitors. Poll of Newsmen Favors President Washington (U.R) Forty seven of 50 Washington corres pondents polled by Newsweek magazine believe President Eis enhower will win the Nov. 6 election. But 38 predicted the Demo crats will retain control of the House and 30 forecast a Demo cratic Senate victory. The poll, prepared for the Nov. 5 isue of the magazine and released Tuesday night, said the average guess on the number of electoral votes each candidate would receive was 347 for Pres ident Eisenhower and 183 for Adlai E. Stevenson. The average guess on the House membership was 229 Dem ocrats and 206 Republicans, which would amount to a loss of three seats by the Democrats. The correspondents predicted the makeup of the Senate will stay the same with 49 Democrats and 47 Republicans. In the magazine's 1952 poll, the 50 correspondents estimated that Stevenson would receive 267 electoral votes and Mr. Eisenhower 264. In the actual balloting, the President received 442 electoral votes and Steven son 89. The correspondents also pre dicted that the Democrats would retain control of Congress in 1952, but the GOP actually won both the House and Senate. Damage Reported By Deer Hunters Prineville U.R Despite pleas by sportsmen's groups, the 1956 deer hunting season in cen tral Oregon is being recorded as one of the worst on record in destruction to private property. Ranchers and farmers have filed numerous complaints with state police and game officials, protesting the shooting of cattle and other animals and the de struction of property. The Morrow county Livestock Growers' Association executive committee has requested the Oregon Cattlemen's Association to take official notice of the sit uation by calling a meeting of representatives from each county. In the Ochoco national forest, a 20-man crew of deputized wardens, reported they found hundreds of unattended hunter's fires. Several small forest fires were started during the season by careless hunters. Ranchers report fences have been torn down, gates left open so animals could stray and a wholesale disregard of no tres passing signs. Americans Evacuated From Egyptian Cities Alexandria, Egypt UJ.R) The American Export liner Exochor da sailed today for Naples with some 350 Americans evacuated from Egyptian cities. The Americans left on the "ur gent" advice of the U.S. State department.. Americans in Syria and Jordan also were advised to get out. The Stale department in Wash ington said Tuesday about 806 Americans have been moved out or are about to leave Israel and the three of its Arab countries. Another 5,255 or so Americans are still in the four countries. 29 States Will Elect Governors on Nov. 6 Washington (U.R) Twenty nine states will elect governors Nov. 6. Republicans now control 16 of the governorships at stake, and the Democrats 13. In the states where there are no guber natorial races this year, the Democrats control 14 state Cap itols and the Republicans five. There are nine Republican governors seeking re-election and eight Democratic governors. Two states already have picked gov ernors this year. Maine re-elected Democratic Gov. Edmund S.
