    Stevenson Says
Played
Blunders Gave
Russia Material,
Democrats Told
Chicago -a'P6-Adlai E. Ste
venson charged Thursday
night that the Eisenhower ad
ministration blundered right
into N i k i t a Khrushchev s
hands and "Die whole surry
mess cannot be swept under
the rug in the name of na
tional unity."
"We handed Khrushchev
the crowbar and the sledge
hammer to wreck the summit
meeting." Stevenson said.
"Let there be no mistake
about that."
Stevenson said, however, it
was Soviet Premier Khru
shchev and solely Khru-shchev-who
w recked the con
ference by making the "im
possible request" that Presi
dent Eisenhower apologize
and punisli those responsible
for the spy plane flight.
"Khrushchev was, in effect,
asking the President to punish
himself." Stevenson said.
'Must Correct Errors'
But, Stevenson went on,
"without our series of blun
ders, Khrushchev would not
have had a pretext for mak
ing his impossible demand
and wild charges."
Stevenson told 2,000 hush
ed Democrats attending a
$100-a-plate local fund rais
ing dinner there was "no
question about the worth of
national unity in a time of
crisis. But errors must be
corrected. It is the duty of
responsible opposition in a
democracy to expose and cri
ticize carlcssness and mis
takes." He said It was "the duty of
all thoughtful, concerned ci
tizens to help retrieve the
situation and to face the hard,
Inescapable facts."
First Major Attack
Among the facts to be fac
ed Stevenson said were:
-That the Eisenhower ad
ministration "played into
Khrushchev's hands; that if
Khrushchev wanted to wreck
the conference our govern
ment made it possible."
-'That the administration
has acutely embarrassed our
allies and endangered our
bases."
-That the Eisenhower ad
ministration has "helped
make successful negotiations
with the Russians-negotiations
that are vital to our
survival-impossible so long
as they are in power."
Stevenson's blistering at
tack marked the first time a
major Democratic Party lead
er publicly has rapped the
administration for its hand
ling of the spy plane incident
and.its summit conference tactics.

To
Policy Attack
Shocks Nixon
Washington - 'I'PD -Vice
President Richard M. Nixon
was described today as "great
ly shocked' by Adlai E. Stev
enson s foreign polity attack
on the Eisenhower administra
tion. The Stevenson speech in
Chicago, accusing the admin
istration of blunders which
contributed to the break-up
of the summit conference, was
viewed in some Democratic
circles as likely to get Steven
son increased attention as a
possibility for the Democratic
presidential nomination.
Nixon's reaction of shock
Nearly 100 Red
Agents Declared
Caught Spying
Washington - H'PH - A con
gressman has made public a
detailed "box score" on Soviet
espionage which he said show
ed that nearly 100 Red agents
have been caught spying on
the United States and its al
lies since World War H.
Hop. Cornelius E. Galla
gher (D-N.J.) a member of the
House Foreign Affairs com
mittee, said Thursday, the U2
spy plane espisode was child's
play compared to the? wide
spread espionage activities of
the Russians.
17,000 Believed Activ
Gallagher said tile number
of Communist spies arrested
In the Free World are only a
fraction of those operating on
Russia's behalf. He said west
ern intelligence sources esti
mate that Russia at this mo
ment has at least 17,000 spies
active in free West Germany
alone.
Furthermore, G a 1 1 a g her
said the Communists have
kidnaped 255 persons from
West Germany "for intelli
gence and other purposes." in
addition, 23 of the nearly 100
spies arrested in allied coun
tries other than West Ger
many have been members of
the Communist diplomatic
corps, he said.
To Counter Outcries
His report was designed to
counter Soviet outcries over
the U2 spy plane mission
which Russian Premier Niki
ta Khrushchev cited to demol
ish the summit conference In
Paris this week.
Sen. Bourke B. Hickenloop
er (R-lowa) told the Senate it
was "high time" the United
States "laid down a list of
dates and names" on Russians
caught spving in this country-
He said that such a dossier
would show that no other
country has been engaged in
"such vast espionage" as Rus
sia. The Russians have been
spying "brazenly and we
know it. Hickenlooper said.

However, these same con

Since the summit confer
ence fell apart this week.
Stevenson partisans have been
feeling that his foreign policy
background would draw him
back into the front rank
among contenders for the
presidential nomination,
which he won in 1952 and
1958.
A group of liberal House
Democrats issued a statement
today questioning the adminis

Macmillan Sees
New Dangers in
Meeting Failure
London -IHi- Prime Mm-"
ister Harold Macmillan told
the House of Commons today
there may be grave impli-,
cations, new threats and new
rlangpr a a result of the col- I
lapse of the summit confer
ence. Macmillan, first of the Big
Three western leaders to re
port publicly on the summit,
said "There Is no doubt that
what has happened is i ser
ious setback."
"We must be prepared for
the international outlook to
become more stern."
Eisenhower Praised
He praised Eisenhower for
wisdom and courage in an
nouncing an end to U2 flights
and declined to predict what
Soviet Premier Nikita Khru
shchev has in store for Berlin.
Macmillan said Khrushchev
Rave no suggestion shortly be
fore the summit meeting was
to have started that he in
tended to wreck it.
He said Khrushchev men
tioned the U2 spy plane inci
dent in a letter eight days be
fore the conference and ex
pressed belief the conference
would achieve little. But he
did not indicate his own
course, Macmillan said.
'Threats' Seen Ended
Macmillan said Khrushchev
stated in the letter he would
not negotiate under threats,
but that Britain believed
those "threats" ended when
Eisenhower said the spy
flights had been suspended.
Normally the House of Com
mons is almost deserted on
Fridays, a iy not devoted to
government business. Today it
was packed and Macmillan
was cheered both as he enter
ed and as he left the chamber.
"Mr. Khrushchev may have
wished to wreck the confer
ence." Macmillan said. "He
must certainly not be allowed
to wreck the western alli
ance." Salem Appoints

Cabin Fails To
Return To Earth
London -(UPP- Russia's space
cabin failed to return to earth
Thursday and has gone into a
lopside orbit because of a
mechanical fault, Tass News
Agency reported today.
The Soviet news agency
said the cabin, which carried
a "dummy spaceman," was
released Thursday on an
order sent from earth. An an
nouncement made when the
ship v.t.3 launched Sunday
said the 2.5-ton cabin descend
ing ... to burn up in the
denser layers of the atmos
phere."
Tass said it was released be
cause it had "completed its
program of observations."
Normal Functioning
"Data of the telemctrical
measurements obtained show
that the system of condition
ing and heat regulation system
of the ship functioned normal
ly throughout the entire flight
and ensured conditions neces
sary for future manned
flights," Tass said.
Figures released by the
news agency showed the satel
lite and its cabin have gone
into a lop-sided orbit, an ex
treme departure from the al
most perfect orbit attained by
the ship at launching.

At Seattle Meet
Salem -1PI- A charge by
Democratic Gov. John Bur
roughs of New Mexico that
Republican Gov. Mark Hat
field of Oregon tried to make
"political hay" in the western
governors conference this
week in Seattle brought a curt
reply today from Hatfield.
Burroughs described Hat
field as a "very, ultra-ambi
tious young man" and sug
gested that he introduced a
resolution calling for medical
aid to the aged as a propa
ganda pitch in a Hatfield bid
for the GOP vice presidency.'
"It is interesting to note,'
Hatfield said, "the governor
of New Mexico waited until
his return to his state before
making these observations.
He sat silent in Seattle dur
ing the discussions but I un
derstand he has a campaign
on his hands in New Mexico. 1
I The governors conference
ended in Seattle Wednesday.
A resolution submitted by
Hatfield on medical aid for
senior citizens was blocked by
a 7-5 straight party vote and
Hie resolution was amended
"so as to make it valueless,
Hatfield said. It finally was
unanimously approved.
In his reply to Burroughs
Hatfield criticized the other
Democratic governors who at
tended the conference saying,
"the charge is a political
smokescreen to cover up their
refusal to acknowledge their
responsibility for care of the
aged.
"They have ducked leader
ship in this area which is one
of the most important the na
tion laces internally. If 1 have
to receive such political
punches below the belt be
cause of efforts in behalf of
those in need, then it is worth
the retaliation," Hatfield said
