South Carolina Gov. Ernest F. Hollings said that his state would go for Nixon if the election were held now. He said he based this assessment on mail he has received. Adm. Arthur W. Radford, former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, urged ex servicement to work for Nixon's election. He was named to head a retired serv icemen's committee for Nixon-Lodgt. Welfare Secretary Arthur S. Flemming said Kennedy had "completely distorted" the position of Nixon and the GOP on social welfare. He referred to a Kennedy state ment that Nixon and fellow Republicans "oppose decent wages for our teachers . . and medical care for the aged." The Saturday Evening Post announced it was supporting Nixon. The magazine Bald the vice president "has tho ma turity, the experience and, above all, the toughness" to deal with the Communist challenge. Ike Says Chances Slim Of Meeting Khrushehcv (Continued from Page 1) At his news conference, the President also made these points: There is only a very, slim possibility that he will meet with Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev w h.e n Khru shchev comes to this country later this month to head the Russian delegation to the U.N. General Assembly meeting in New York. Eisenhower said some conditions, would have to be fulfilled before such a meeting could be held and he didn't intend to be a party to a battle of invective and propaganda. The religious issue ought to be laid on the shelf for the rest of the presidential cam paign. Asked to comment on a charge by former President Harry S. Truman that Repub licans were bringing this in by the back door, Eisenhower said he knew of no group that has been more emphatic in re jecting the religious approach than GOP leaders. The Cuban regime of Fidel Castro committed a .very grave error, in his mind, when it recognized the Communist Chinese government. The defection of two junior mathematicians at the Nation al Security Agency to Russia shows that this country must always be on the alert and must go through its entire se curity procedures to see if there is any way they can be improved. . Georgia-Pacific lips Plywood Price Portland - IDP1I -G eorgia-Pa- cific Corp. Tuesday an nounced a $4 hike in plywood prices, and other producers in dicated they planned to follow suit. The increase brought to $68 the price for the index item of quarter-inch, sanded ply wood. The price is the best the industry has had this year. Major plywood producers several weeks ago announced cutbacks in plywood produc tion to halt a downward trend in prices. One producer said Tuesday he feared tho Georgia-Pacific move to raise prices may have been "premature." Other producers, however. said they planned to go along with the price increase, some on a "tentative ' basis. Democrats who say it was his fault that Congress achiev. ed little in its post-convention session apparently are trying to make him responsible for splitting their party. He said Democrats had 2-to-l majori ties in Congress and if there had been any little bit of give-and-take they could have had a less disappointing legislative record. Statement on Congo The President read a state ment which said the United States "deplores" the unilater al Soviet action in supplying planes and equipment for mil itary purposes to the Congo "thereby aggravating an al ready serious situation which finds Africans killing other Africans." The President said that if these planes are flown by Rus sian military personnel, it would be contrary to the prin ciples followed so far in the use of military contingents from the larger powers in the Congo. He said the constitutional makeup of the Congo Repub lic is something that the Con golese themselves should work out peacefully. "This objective is threat ened by the Soviet action which seems to be motivated entirely by the Soviet Union's political designs in Africa," he said. "I must repeat that tne United States lakes a most serious view of this action by the Soviet Union." Thinking of UN Trip Liennower said he has been thinking of making a pilgrim age to the United Nations, as he has done twice before. He said there were very definite reasons for going, adding, however, that he would not take part in any move to de base the United Nations by engaging in a battle of in vective and propaganda. A reporter asked if the con ditions which he would attach to any proposed meeting with Khrushchev would include such moves as Russia freeing the RB47 fliers it now holds prisoner.
