has led a career of "devoted
public service to the special
interests who grub staked
him."
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.
Eicnhower said that would

Vernonia - IUPD - A planing j
mill and an old house are
scheduled to go up in flames

Some 400 residents of the
