Portland - (LTD - Sen. Thom
as Kuchel (R-Calif.) sacrificed
some political points and a
night's sleep to fly here on
short notice to sub for Defense
."Secretary Thomas Gates at
. one of the nationwide "Salute
to Ike" dinners.
Kuchel quoted from Gates'
'speech and had a few things
to say himself. He was flying
with President Eisenhower to
Los Angeles when he got word
that the Secretary's jet plane
'. had been held up because of
. mechanical difficulties in Bal-
timore.
The President asked Kuchel
to fill in for Gates here in
stead of introducing him at
-the Los Angeles Ike dinner.
The senator is up for reelec
tion this year. He also had a
speech set for Long Beach at
; 10:30 a.m. today which he
, planned to make.
Big Crowd Attends
Gates' speech said the Eisen
' hower administration has giv
; en Americans the greatest
prosperity in its history and
military power "second to
; none."
In complementing Gates'
' speech, Kuchel said "I regret
with all my heart that some
Democrats are crying, wailing
I and raising cain over Amer
.. ica's defense . . . some of them
:r almost hoping they are speak
- ing the truth."
He had other comments
about the "sound fiscal pol-
. icy" of the GOP and hoped
for GOP leadership in civil
rights legislation this year.
The Portland dinner drew
" more than 800 guests and net
U ted the party at least $72,000.
Unander Honored
Honored at the dinner was
: ex-State Treasurer Sig Unan
;der who has been appointed
' a member of the Federal Mari
time commission. His appoint
ment comes up for confirma
tion by the Senate Feb. 3.
- Kuchel said he would support
him.
Many state GOP bigwigs
were at the dinner which was
presided over by State Sen.
: Anthony Yturri (R-Ontario).
y The speech by uates saia
. ' more Atlas intercontinental
. ballistic missiles will become
battle-ready in April and said
' the Titan ICBM will become
"operational in the summer of
.1961. The first Atlas missiles
, are in war-ready status at
' Vandenburg Air Force Base,
Calif.
The April addition of bat-
tie -ready missiles will be
placed at Francis E. Warren
. Air Force base, Cheyenne,
Wyo.
Gates speech was a recital
! of American military strength
, and a reiteration of much that
he has been telling Congress
over the past two weeks. He
said that all the missiles the
; Soviet Union could muster to-
day would not be enough to
'.destroy America's ability to
strike back.

Irregular Advance

staged an irregular advance
during the first hour today.
Prices moved narrowly on
either side of the previous
close.
Steels favored a lower
trend in line with a statement
by Roger M. Blough, U.S.
Steel chairman, that steel out
put would dip after a good
first half. Youngstown and
Bethlehem eased, U.S. Steel
was unchanged. Republic
tacked on a small fraction.
Autos were easier, with
trader sentiment depressed by
auto output and sales figures
indicating that the pace was
about half of what had been
predicted. American Motors
eased, while Chrysler and
General Motors were un
changed. Studebaker-Packard
added a small fraction.
Motorola and Zenith gained
a point each in the electron
ics where Texas Instruments
firmed and Amp Inc. lost a
point. DuPont was up around
1 in the chemicals. Drugs
were firm.

Power Says Russia
Could Launch Atomic
Attack in Two Years
l Washington-(lTD-Air Force
Gen. Thomas S. Power said
.today that Russia might have
5 enough intercontinental mis-
siles within two years to
"launch a massive nuclear at
,tack on the United States.
But, Power, chief of the
Stragtegic Air Command, said
I the Soviet Union would be
afraid to make such an at
tack if America's nuclear
-bombers were kept on air
borne alert. Such an alert, he
said, "can be instituted when
' required."
. "If the Russians were not
deterred from attacking,"
Power declared, "we will
'have no active defense what
ever against their ballistic
missiles."
The SAC commander made
the statements in a speech
prepared for the American
; Legion's National Security
." commission. The remarks
rwere sure to add fuel to the
''controversy over new admin
istration estimates downgrad
: ing the Russian missile threat.
Democrats claim the new view
'is "too rosy."
Another speaker, Sen. Hen
'ry M. Jackson (D-Wash.), a
member of the Senate Armed
Services committee, told the
v Legion group he would seek
i funds for 10 new Polaris mis
; sile submarines this year, sev
en more than President Ei
' senhower's defense budget
recommended.
; But Power said the Navy's
Polaris missiles could "con
ceivably even detract" from
the nation's offensive strength
unless they were integrated
with SAC weapons under a
"harmonious" command.
A joint Strategic Command
is under consideration at the
Pentagon.
Although the 1,500-mile
Polaris will carry an H-bomb
warhead. Power referred to
it as a "small" missile.
The four-star general em
phasized his belief that the
nation must prepare for an
airborne alert in which some
of his SAC nuclear bombers
would be kept constantly in
the air so they would not be
destroyed on the ground by a
surprise Russian attack.
He said the survival of his
bombers could be assured if
a large portion were kept in
the air.
President Eisenhower has
asked Congress for 90 million
dollars to prepare for such an
airborne alert.
In promising to seek extra
money for a wide range of
defense items, Jackson said
he would ask for the estimat
ed one billion dollars to pay
for the first year of an around-the-clock
airborne alert.
His speech, following sim
ilar criticism by Sen. Stuart
Symington (D-Mo.), kept up
the drumfire of Democratic
attacks on administration de
fense policies. Like Syming
ton, Jackson frequently has
criticized Eisenhower's mili
tary programs.

Cuban President
Says Differences
May Work Out
Havana (UPD President Os
valdo Dorticos Torrado
blamed the United States
Wednesday night for the dif
ferences between America
and Cuba, but said he be
lieves they can be "resolved
effectively" by diplomatic
means.
In a televised reply to Presi
dent Eisenhower's press con
ference remarks about Cuba
this week, Dorticos challeng
ed the U.S. President on al
most every point. The tone
of his speech, however, was
not hostile.
Dorticos was especially
sharp in his rejection of Eis
enhower's assertion that the
"intrigues of international
communism" are a factor in
the growing coolness between
the United States and Cuba.
He said American "misun
derstanding" of the Cuban
revolution, coupled with the
"wrongs inflicted on our na
tion" by the United States
were the main causes of the
current friction between the
two countries.
Castro has not commented
as yet on the Eisenhower
statement. In a radio-TV
broadcast early today, he re
ferred only inferentially .to
differences between the Unit
ed States and Cuba.
Castro's speech at an out
door supper marking the
107th anniversary of the birth
of Cuban patriot Jose Marti
was in part a eulogy of Marti
and in part an appeal to the
Cuban people for indepen
dence and dignity.

Hatfield Speaks of Judges; Nixon of a GOP Campaign
Albuquerque, N.M. -(DPD-
Oregon Gov. Mark Hatfield
declared here on Wednesday
night that the federal judici
al system must' get the same
kind of bi-partisan support
given to defense or foreign af
fairs measures or justice will
collapse under the burden of
backlogs.
Addressing a $100-a-plate
"Salute to Ike" dinner, he said
that creation of new judge
ships "has been delayed four
years by the Democratic ma
jority in Congress in the hope
a patronage-passins president
of their own party would be
coming along.
"Meanwhile, justice has be
come an illusion for many of
our people through no fault
of the existing judges but
through p combination of sim
ple multiplication and refusal
by the Democrats to provide
manpower to do the job."
Delay Said Long
He said the delay in cases
reaching trial has run as
much as four years for a me
dian case. The example he

Railroads Should Get
Relief, Official Says
New York-flJPD-A railroad
executive said Wednesday the
government must provide rail
roads with tax relief and
equal treatment with compet
ing transportation or by 1970
there won't be any commuter
service except under compul
sion. David I. Mackie, chairman
of the Eastern Railroad Presi
dents Conference, made the
statement in an address to the
Transportation Association of
America's National Transpor
tation Institute.
cited was in the eastern dis
trict court of New York.
"This is no criticism of in
dividual judges," Hatfield
said. "The reason is simple.
The expansion of the courts
has not kept pace with the
growth of the country."
He said the backlog in
crease from 1941 to 1959 has
jumped 117 per cent, the num
ber of motor vehicle injury
cases has increased more than
five times in 20 years and
U. S. population has increased
36 per cent.
"President Eisenhower," he
said, "has swung the pendu
lum of appointment back to
balance after 20 years of Dem
ocratic - dominated appoint
ments. He has willingly of
fered to make appointments
on a bi-partisan basis.
"It remains for the Demo
crats in Congress to create
the bench positions so that
justice might be speeded."
Washington-(UPD- Vice Pres
ident Richard M. Nixon of
fered the nation's voters to
day a 1960 GOP presidential
campaign based on the Eisen
hower administration's "out
standing" record and a pledge
to. improve it.
President Eisenhower, Nix
on and other top Republican
leaders formally opened the
campaign Wednesday night at
a nationwide series of 83 "din
ner with Ike" banquets in 43
states.
Speaking from Los Ange
les to the diners via closed
circuit TV, Eisenhower in ef
fect advised Republicans to
campaign on the basic poli
cies of his administration
which had made the country
"over-all the strongest power
op earth, both militarily and
economically."
Warns of Smugness
Nixon, unopposed for the
GOP presidential nomination,
told the largest of the din
ners, in Chicago, that Repub
licans would wage the elec
tion fight with a pledge to
improve as well as continue
the "outstanding" record of
the Eisenhower administra
tion. New York Gov. Nelson A.
Rockefeller, who bowed out
of any fight with Nixon for
the GOP nomination, said the
party could not meet the
"staggering responsibilities"
of the future only with the
devices and programs of the
Eisenhower era. But he
praised the President and his
accomplishments.
Nixon, vho introduced Eis
enhower to the estimated 100,
000 televiewers, warned his
party against any temptation
to be "smug and self-satisfied"
about past achievements. He
said the GOP must consider
the Eisenhower record as "the
solid foundation upon which
to build even greater accom
plishments." In New York City, Repub
lican National Chairman
Thurston B. Morton scoffed at
"politically-motivated" Demo
cratic critics of the Presi
dent's defense program "with
their paper hats and wooden
swords."
