Quotes From the News By UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL Minneapoli s- Vice President Nixon, on Democrats who point to polls showing a decisive Democratic lead in the con gressional election: "I only hope they make the same mistake we (Republi cans) made in 1948 of believing that polls settle the result of an election." Vatican dity-The Rev. Walter Leo Flynn of Pawtucket, R.I., when a smoke signal from the secret conclave of cardi nals led onlookers to believe mistakenly that a new pope had been elected: "It's white, it's white, its finished!" Vienna-Magda Gabor, who with her sister Eva was re united with their Hungarian father, on whether they planned to return with him to Hungary: "We never even think of going back to Hungary. We love America." Ft. Jackson, S.C.-Evangelist Billy Graham, barred from preaching on the South Carolina State House steps by Gov. George Belf Timmerman Jr., on charges he was an "integra tionist," on people who have become unbalanced by the ra cial issue: . "Segregation or integration have become their only gospeL" In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS Within the past few days, this new and spicy ingredient has been added to the 1958 political pot-pie: A new and FIGHTING Ike. THE dispatches tell us that the President's tough-talk ing trip won him acclaim from party ranks as a "new" and "fighting" Eisenhower who is willing and able to heap scorn and ridicule on the Demo crats. When he stepped off his plane in Washington, he was greeted by the high GOP brass. National Chairman Meade Alcorn grasped his hand and said: "Welcome home, Mr. President. You were TERRIFIC!" The watching correspond ents report that "the chief executive himself was con vinced that his one - week swing had helped Republicans . In the battle for congress." LET'S be realistic. One can't help doubting that Ike's trip, much as the GOP politicians liked it, can turn the tide in this 1958 congressional campaign year from Republican losses to Re publican gains. This is the situation: The people generally aren't happy with things as they are. They haven't enjoyed the re cession even though the mild slump we are pulling out of may have been good for our national economy over the long haul. They aren't happy with the foreign situation. And, be sides, this is an off year. His tory tells us that in off years the party in power at the White House is apt to show losses in congress. When peo ple aren't too happy about things, they are inclined to take it out on the administration. T3UT- In his rough-and-tumble speeches on the swing around the circle from which he has just returned, Ike DID THE THINGS THAT A PRESI DENT HAS TO DO - especial ly in a campaign year. He displayed POLITICAL leadership. He showed he could slug it out with the best of the sluggers and hold his own. Regardless of what the idealists may say, the PEOPLE like a political lead er who can dish it out. k-: -va " IT'l TO MARRY? Actress Eva Bartok told the press she intends to marry Prince Shiv of Palitana, shortly be fore her rival for the Prince's attentions, English model Jane Buckingham, was killed when a British airliner crashed at Anzio Beachhead, Italy. OICTURE to yourself a quiet street in a Big Bure or a small town. Everything is calm. The people, perhaps, are a bit bored with it all. Then . . . suddenly ... a dog fight starts. The crowd drops its boredom and gathers to see the fight. Put it this way: One dog may be a top hunt ing dog, or a top sheep dog, or a top watch dog and chil dren's companion. It may be everything that a properly bred and properly trained dog Frafernily House Fire Claims Two Washington -OIPD- Funeral arrangements were being completed today for two George Washington univers ity students who were burned to death early Sunday in a fire at their fraternity house. The dead youths were id entified as Roger Ussery, 22, of Rockingham, N. C, and Lanny Ormsby, 20, of Islip, N. Y. Their bodies, charred beyond recognition, were found in their room on the third floor of the Delta Tau Delta house. The entire floor was gutted by the. four-alarm blaze. Four other fraternity broth ers were taken to a hospital. Three were released later and the other was described as in satisfactory condition. should be. The other may be a mutt. But- If the proper dog turns tail and runs, the mutt will be the hero of the crowd. IKE didn't run. He met the political sluggers head-on and gave as good as he took. '. To that extent, he bettered his party's position. Vermont Ruminator Shies Away From Predicting Market By ELMBER C. WALZER UP I Financial Editor New York - (CPD - The old Vermont ruminator, Hum phrey B. Neill, he of contrary opinion tech nique, sniffs the clear New' England' air- and shoots a few darts at p r o p h ets of Wall Street. "I s every one mesmeri zed by a mi rage of ever- iv w Mi I Elmer Walzer lasting prosperity - or is this Vermont ruminator blinded by the brilliance of business prospects?" he asks. "Are all the prognosticators moon-struck all of a sudden? Has the rocket age infused minds with some sort of radio active tension so that tem perate actions and forecasts are considered old-fogyish? "In short, must one exag gerate, hyperbolize, speculate, and distort sound planning, in order to gain attention and get ahead?" Neill doesn't envision a new cliff in the building to tumble over. Nor does he see a "bust" in view. 'Unpredictable' He shies away from making a market prediction "be cause it has been my exper ience that forecasting the swings of the stock market comes under the head of pre dicting the unpredictable." But he sounds a warning. He sees the crowd coming in. They aren't rampantly bullish as yet, but "that stage lies somewhere ahead." Stock market doubts -among the public and also in Wall Street he notes," are too prevalent for us contra rians to expect a big drop, al though to repeat, another spill after election day or at any time would be typical. "Considering the liberal tendencies of 'modern Repub licanism' I fail to see what significant difference the bi- elections will have. Contrarily a Democratic sweep - not yet a sure tning, Dy the way - might be considered . more conservative than unexpected Republican victories. 'Boom-Bust Cycle' Neill believes that inflation, contrary to current thought, may be dismissed as an im mediate threat, although he holds, the long-run hedging problem remains acute. And he warns: "If business and mass psychology unfolds as it appears to me on page one, then the boom-bust cycle will reappear, albeit they say it can never happen here again." On the future of industry, he notes that the question which has troubled eco nomists, concerns consumer durable goods, particularly automobiles. He notes other heavy goods bought by the public are doing better household appliances, vaca tion and sporting goods, and the like. "Everyone will keep his fingers crossed on autos for another two or three months," he said. "You can get any viewrioint you want, from the new-cars-won't-suit-the-buyers to the industry-i s-set-for-a-b a n n e r year. "I have not noticed a de cisive generalized opinion to be contary to. but it would not be surprising if the new models failed to generate the enthusiasm hoped for." Navy Abandons Search for Plane Agana, Guam-(UPD-The U.S. Navy today called off the search for a missing Navy plane with four men aboard. The end of the search came after nine full days of comb ing the vast Pacific west, north and south of this Ameri can island bastion. The carrier Princeton and five destroyers, which had been searching for possible survivors for the past four days, steamed into Apra Har bor today for refueling before returning to their post with the U.S. 7th Fleet. The plane ditched in the Pacific Ocean between Guam and the Philippines Oct. 18. TO HONOR FUCHS Washington (UPD The Na tional Geographic Society an nounced today that its Hub bard Medal will be awarded to Sir Vivian Fuchs, the Brit ish explorer who led history's first overland crossing of Ant arctica this year. Dr. Mel ville Bell Grosvenor, presi dent and editor of the society, said the award will be pre sented when Fuchs comes here to address the society next Feb. 6. 8 1 - - j 5 W- ma GOING on trial in Warsaw, Poland, for wartime crimes, Erich Koch, ex-Nazi gaulei ter, cups ear to better hear testimony against him. Natural Gas Seen Blast Cause Ottawa-IUPD-Natural gas ap peared today to have been the force behind Saturday's early morning explosion that gouged a gaping hole in the capital's down-town business section. A formal investigation was expected to begin today into the cause of the thunderous explosion which hit half-wakened Ottawa with earthquake force at 8:20 a.m. ' Work crews spent most of Saturday and Sunday clear ing away the debris and re pairing the broken gas and water mains in the four-block area surrounding the center of the blast. Destroyed were three stores and an automobile showroom, seemingly the center of the blast. The interior of the nine story Federal Jackson build ing across the street was a shambles, and many stores lost plate glass windows. The blast was felt as far as 10 miles away. There were no fatalities, although 32 persons were treated at local hospitals for a variety of injuries. Had the blast occurred on a week day morning or even an; hour later when the stores were open, the result might have been a wholesale slaughter.
