Washington (U.R) Back
stairs at the White House:
President Eisenhower con
fided to former President Her
bert Hoover this week that play
ing golf in the rain recently at
Augusta, Ga., left him stiff and
creaky at the joints.
Mr. Eisenhower went to a
luncheon in honor of Mr. Hoover
last Monday and as they walked
into the dining room, the Pres
ident told the former President
about his golfing woes.
The President felt the after
effects to such an extent, he said,
that "what I played the next
day you could hardly call golf."
Tlie muscular stiffness must
have lingered because when pho
tographers asked Mr. Eisenhow
er for "one more" pose with Mr.
Hoover, the President grinned
and said, "Just so you don't ask
me to wave."
It was at the state dinner
given by King Saud of Saudi
Arabia for President Eisenhower
at the Mayflower Hotel. As the
entree was served, waiters fan
ned out through the banquet hall
placing gold-banded glasses of
a white liquid in front of the
Arab guests, none for the West
ern guests.
One of the younger members
of the King's entourage sipped
speculatively.
"Ugh," he said with a grimace.
'Goat's milk.
He took another sip and turn
ed to a table companion.
"I'd certainly like to get my
hands on the person who spread
the story that His Majesty is
passionately fond of this stuff,"
said the Arab official. "Every
where we've been in this coun
try there has been an enormous
supply of goat's milk. And I
don't believe the King likes it
any more than I do."
Members of the King's party
do not smoke in his immediate
presence out of deference to his
dislike of tobacco and the use
thereof. It was interesting at
the banquet to see that Arabs
seated near the King were not
smoking after dinner, but those
seated some distance away from

him at the end of the U-shaped
banquet table were puffing away
contentedly.
The Republican organization
of North Augusta, S.C., is some
what baffled a n d a mite dis
couraged about its efforts to
bring about a real t w o-party
system in their section of the
South.
North Augusta is a town of 13,-
000 population just across the
Savannah river from Augusta.
Ga., where Mr. Eisenhower
visits grequently.
When the President was in
Georgia last week end, David
A. Ward, president of the North
Augusta Municipal Republican
Club, telephoned the temporary
White House switchboard to In
form the Eisenhower staff that
a letter from his group to the
President was on the way, ask
ing an expression of presidential
encouragement.
The Republicans, for the first
time in area history, have put
up against the Demorcats a slate
of candidates for mayor and city
Council in the upcoming munici
pal election.
According to Ward, "The Pres
ident has said repeatedly that he
favors the development of a
strong two-party system all over
America, but when we try to get
it going down here, a member of
his staff tells us, 'Sorry, Mr.
Eisenhower does not like public
statements on campaigns of this
type,."

Foster's successor is anyone's
guess and may not make any dif
ference. The chairman is not all
powerful. The "split" may be for show
purpose, one of those dizzying
deviations full of fury but mean
ing nothing. Don't expect
parades aroung the floor or out
bursts at Communist conven
tions. If there are, don't expect
them to change what party lead
ers have decided.
The Communists will discuss
these "serious" errors, self-confessed:
1. The party underestimate
American capitalism by predict
ing depressions in 1945, 1949
and 1954 which never came. It
relied too much on Soviet judge
ments about what was happen
ing in prosperous America.
Yet party officials still wist
fully rely on "inflation" and "re
cession" as their hope to regain
old members and win new ones.
2. It incorrectly believed that
America would start World War
III and that Americans would
succumb to "McCarthyism."
3. It made a whopping mistake
in supporting Henry Wallace,
the Progressive candidate, for
president in 1948. when he had
no mass support from American
workers.
4.. It wrongly advocated a "Ne
gro nation" in the South instead
of fighting alonside others for
Negro rights.
Now, all this has changed,
says the party. It will try to be
come a leader in the battle to
end segregation. It will, it says,
no longer "bore from within" in
unions and will abide by maj
ority decisions.
In a resumption of the old
"popular front" tactics, it will
try to infiltrate the Demoratic
party, ' the trade unions and
liberal groups.
It is even considering disband
ing as a party, and calling Itself
a "political- action association."
Just as the "declaration of in
dependence" might upset moves
based on the party's subserv
ience to Moscow, so the dissolu
tion of the party ' could send J.
Edgar Hoover's FBI agents on a
merry chase into the under
ground. "And now the American Com
munists would have us believe
that they have changed their
philosophy," Hoover warns.
"What a farce that is. . .
"There is nothing really new
in the current Communist party
from the time of its inception in
1919 has changed its name nine
times. The constitution of the
Communist party of this coun
try has been changed 17 times,
zigging and zagging for the at
tainment of its diabolical ends
through deception and double
talk."
"Regardless of what it does
this week end,"- Hoover said,
"of this you can be sure it will
be the same old crowd at the
same old stand banded together
for the same old purpose to
advance the Communist cause
and serve the Soviet Union.
"They will use the same old(
technique with which they have
hoodwinked so many people in
the past." I
