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

WAITED
Democrats and
Independents
Doug McKay
Our liabilities arm little time and little money. Our
assets are a resolute faith and absolute confidence
in the work we are doing for the good of our State
and fellow citizens. Help us reach ALL Oregoniant.
WE NEED THE assistance of all OREGONIANS IMME
DIATELY. Send your ideas and contributions to Demo
crats and Independents for McKay, P.O. Box 947,
Roseburg, Oregon.
After months of thorough and quiet study without
help from pr even knowledge of any political parry
we publicly announce our efforts in Roseburg with
Jim Aiken and Joan Knudtson as co-chairman and
George Luoma as secretary of Organized Democrats
and Independents for McKay.
Jim, former U of O football coach, has devoted most
of his life to youth from grade school through col
lege. For several years now he has worked in the
timber industry.
Joan is a housewife, former Oregon State College
student and active in civic affairs.
George graduated from the U of O law school in
1946 and has been a Roseburg lawyer since.
Jim and Joan are Democrats. George is an independ
ent. None of them has ever been a Republican.
These efforts have caught the imagination of people
all over the state. We are ready to prove that Morse
is guilty of give-away, throw-away, pacify-away,
betray-away and waste-away.
We will not accept contributions from any political
party or out-of-state source. We must reach all Ore
gonians by TV, radio and newspaper. Help us now.
Ask at least 10 of your friends to do the same.
Every penny of expenses will be made public. No
one will receive any compensation in any way what
soever. Vote for McKAY
without Re-MORSE

any untoward incident.
When he speaks, agents are
spotted at strategic places near
the speaker's platform and in
the audience.
Like a Shadow
James T. 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.

natorial races this year, the

itols and the Republicans five.
