Nixon Sure Program
Will Be Supported
Washington - (UPII - Vice
President Richard M. Nixon
aid Saturday he is sure Re
publicans will rally around
their party's plptform, policies
and candidates this year de
spite "inevitable" disagree
ments on some issues.
In obvious reference to
New York Gov. Nelson A.
Rockefeller's frontal attack
on him earlier in the week,
Nixon said "xpu've got to
have room for people who dis
agree" within a political
party. ' '
He told a Republican na
tional committee breakfast
that intraparty disagreement
in a two-party system was in
evitable and constructive be
cause the alternative would
be multiple splinter groups
and ultimate chaos.
But Nixon also asserted
that Republicans can "dis
agree without being disagree
able." While he did not refer di-
'Kr Says Powers
Can Visit Son
Moscow - OJPD - A Soviet
announcement said Saturday
that Premier Nikita Khrush
chev had turned down Oliver
Powers' appeal for the release
of his son, U-2 pilot Francis
Powers, but declared he is
ready to help the father see
his son if he comes to Russia.
"I must tell you that your
on will be tried," Khrush
chev said in reply to a letter
from the elder Powers, 55,
who lives near Pound, Va.
Oliver Powers, a shoe re
pair shop operator, had writ
ten to the Soviet premier last
month, urging "as one father
to mother" that he free pilot
Poweri, arrested after h i s
U-2 spy plane was shot down
over the Soviet Union May 1.
He offered to take his son's
place in prison.
The Soviet Tass news agen
cy said Khrushchev replied to
Powers that "law is law, and I
cannot interfere in a matter
which is exclusively within
the competence of the judicial
authorities."
Oliver Powers had said last
month he intended to go to
the Soviet Union in an effort
to see his son. But later he
uddenly called off his plans,

rectly to Rockefeller's blister
ing challenge of him and some
of the Eisenhower administra

dent made it clear he did not
consider the New Yorker's
action damaging to the Repub

Nixon addressed the GOP
committeemen on the final
day of a three - day pre-
convention meeting. He was
heavily favored by national
committee members for the
party's presidential nomina

made his move. Their opinion
did not seem to have changed.
The committee discussed
campaign techniques and or
ganizational work at its final
closed session after hearing
Nixon. The vice president
later met privately with three

Ike Appeals for
No Cuts in Aid
Washington-IUPD - President
Eisenhower, on the eve of his
departure for the Far East,
appealed to congressional
leaders Saturday to stave off
a threatened cut in foreign
aid funds. He said it would
jeopardize free world de
fenses. His plea was directed to
action of a House appropria
tions subcommittee which two
days ago voted to cut about
$800 million off his request
for $4,175,000,000 in new
funds to finance military and
economic assistance in the 12
months starting July 1.
The subcommittee's action
comes up for ratification by
the full appropriations com
mittee Monday. Eisenhower,
in identical telegrams to key
figures involved, urged restor
ation of a substantial part of
the cut "for our own security
and for the common defense
of the free world."
If allowed to stand, he said,
Adlai's Reply to
Mrs. Roosevelt's
Request Unknown
Chicago - OIPP - Adlai E.
Stevenson, who 3 ',4 years ago
said he would not run again
for the presidency but would
help the Democratic party
however he could, Saturday
replied to a plea from Mrs.
Eleanor Roosevelt that he
again become a candidate.
Neither Stevenson, unsuc
cessful Democratic candidate
in 1952 and 1956, nor Mrs.
Roosevelt, widow of the four-
times elected Democratic
President Franklin D. Roose
velt, would disclose the con
tents of his answer.
But immediate speculation
arose that Stevenson had left
the way open for a draft in
case the Democratic presiden
tial nominating convention,
which will meet in Los Ange
les In July, should call upon
him. ,
Both the New York Post
and the Chicago Daily News
said that Stevenson's reply
made clear his availability for
the nomination.
The St. Louis Post Dispatch
endorsed Stevenson as Demo
cratic candidate for President
in a Sunday edition editorial
which said he was the
"ablest" and "best fitted" of
all Democratic candidates.
Stevenson, contacted at his
Libertyville, 111.,' home, refus
ed to give contents of a tele
grammed reply he made to
Mrs. Roosevelt Friday night.
He said the telegram was
"personal."
But he recalled remarks he
has made since his second de
feat at the hands of President
Eisenhower in 1956, and ap
peared to be reiterating the
dnnrl thai hp wnillrl nnt nclive-
I ly seek the presidency.

the cut would hurt U. S. allies
in both Europe and the Far
East.
Half the subcommittee's
recommended reduction
$400 million-would be applied
against direct military assist
ance, for which the President
asked $2 billion.
Another cut of $75 million
was imposed on his request
for $724 million in so-called
defense support.
"This cannot but jeopardize
the defense of the free world,"
the President said. "Unavoid
ably the military assistance
cut would have to fall heavily
upon force modernization.
This would compel America
to withhold from her allies
both in NATO and in the Far
East the equipment required
to maintain a respectable pos
ture of defense."
As for the cut in defense
support funds, the President
said "this will force us to
distribute the deficit among
our allies rimming the Com
munist world from Korea to
Turkey, to the detriment of
all, or else to drop entirely
from this powerful defensive
system one or more nations
important to us in order to
sustain the others at an ad
equate level."
The President, indirectly
reaffirming his far eastern
travel plans, pointed out that
he himself will be In the
Orient when the subcommit
tee actions come up for re
view next week. The money
bill, after action by the full
committee Monday, goes to
the House for debate starting
Thursday.
Eastern Airlines
Pilots on Strike
New York - UJPI) - Eastern
Air lines pilots went on strike
Saturday in protest- over
flight seating arrangements
for federal inspectors, forcing
cancellation of flights in eight
cities despite union instruc
tions to return to work.
Eastern said at least 11
flights were grounded
Miami alone even after the Air
Lines Pilots association advis
ed the pilots to fly because of
an outstanding federal court
injunction.
Eastern pilots in Detroit
also failed to show up for
flights despite the ALPA's an
nouncement.
However, a spokesman for
Eastern here said the pilots
were beginning to return to
work at New York's Idlewild
airport and Newark, N.J., air
port. Detroit reported that one
EAL flight from New York
and one from Atlanta arrived.
The wildcat walkouts start
ed at midnight.
Eastern said it was con
tinuing to schedule flights,
cancelling each as it became
apparent the pilots were not
showing up.

Fidel Takes Over
All of Havana's
Leading Hotels
Havana, Cuba-IUPII-Premiei
Fidel Castro's government
took over the Havana Hilton,
the Nacional and several oth
er luxury hotels Saturday in
a move apparently aimed at
heading off complete collapse
of the tourist-starved hotel in
dustry. Technically, the Hilton, the
Nacional and the others were
"intervened" on orders from
Labor Minister Augusto Mar
tinez Sanchez. This means
they are to be run by officials
appointed by the government.
Also taken over were the
St. John and the residential
Rosita de Hornedo hotels, as
well as the swank Tropicana
night club and a grocery store
operated by Rosita de Hor
nedo. All Under Control
The move means that all
leading hostelries here now
are under some form of gov
ernment control.
Employees of the Nacional,
which is operated by the In
tercontinental Hotel Corpora
tion of New York, have not
been paid in the past 41 days.
All leading Havana hotels-
once centers of gaiety in this
former Paris of the Caribbean
but now virtual ghost build
ings-owe fantastic sums for
food, services and operating
costs which in some cases are
reported to total $300,000
The Havana Hilton was
built by the Gastronomical
Workers union, but was op

Ohioan Accused
Of Shady Expenses
Washineton-fllPD - Rep. Wil
liam Ayres (R-Ohio) billed the
government $12 per diem ex
penses for a day in October,
1857, when he was making a
speech in his home district,
the Knight Newspapers said
Saturday.
A copyright dispatch by
Robert E. Hoyt said Ayres
drew $12 a day for expenses
from Oct. 15 through 29, 1957,
for what was described as
a western trip to investigate
labor matters.
The article quoted Ayres as
saying the complete investiga
tion consisted of an informal
public hearing at Utah's state
capitol in Salt Lake City, plus
talks with:
Desert Inn proprietor
Wilbur Clark about working
conditions ot casino em
polyecs in Las Vegas, Nev.
A Los Angeles florist for
whom the congressman had
worked while in Congress.
One union official In
Denver and another in San
Francisco.
Hoyt's dispatch said records
in the House disbursing office
showed Ayres drew $180 for
the 15 days per diem through
Oct. 29, plus $95.48 for rail
travel. The total railroad bill
was $157.81 but Ayres reim
bursed the government $62.35
for his wife, Mary Helen's,
share.
