Hoffman, a ton Elsenhower cam paign strategist, waa listed today a a witness In Sen. Benton' D- Connl defense against a two mil lion dollar libel-slander auit filed by Sen. McCarthy IR-Wls). Lawyers for the embattled sena tors squared off lor a court fight Tuesday before U. S District Judge Burnlt 8. Matthews. The hearing will determine whether Hoffman nould be permitted to Rive his testimony the same day at a deposition hearing. The suit is an outgrowth of Ben ton's efforts to have McCarthy expelled from the Senate. McCar thy contends that. In this move, Kenton wrongfully deramen nim with baseless accusations of fraud, perjury and calculated deceit. Gerhard van Arkel. counsel for Benton, declined to reveal hi re- sons for calling Hoffman as a de- tense witness or the nature or ques tions to be asked. Edward B. Williams, a lawyer for McCarthy, in his motion for a court-ordered postponement, said Van Ariel'! stand deprived him of opportunity to prepare to cross examine the witness. He also asked for the delay to permit him to consult first with McCarthy. whom he described as too 111 for such a conference now. McCarthy la at a Wisconsin resort, recover ing from an operation.: Hoffman, a former economic co operation administrator, was close ly associated with Gen. George C. Marshall, whose 'career aa war time chief of staff and postwar secretary of state has figured prominently In the bitter McCar-thy-Benton feud.

Elsenhower's expres sions on social security, said Fri day he doubt "the average citizen can find any comfort or solace In his candidacy." Murray addressed a "get-behlnd-Stevenson" rally of some 400 lead ers of the CIO and Us Political Action Committee (PACi. The CIO Executive Board endorsed Demo cratic nominee Adlal Stevenson Thursday. Murray quoted from what he said were past speeches and letters by Elsenhower, and declared the GOP candidate's views run "coun ter to the expressed purposes of the American people throughout ine last ro-year period. ' Crump Backs Demo Machine MEMPHIS, Tenn. W 8helby County political leader E. H. Crump says he hopes persons who "re ready to accept the Republicans or anyone at any price" will reserve Judgment. The 76-year-old veteran polltican made the statement yesterday in endorsing the 1952 Democratic tic ket of Adlal Stevenson and John Sparkman. Crump backed the States Rights ticket In 1948 and It carried this country by a 3,000 vole majority. "Stevenson and Sparkman guar antee there will be a house clean ing from top to bottom," Crump said, "and they are men of fine character and high reputation " The political leader called the Re publicans a "selfish Inconsiderate party" and said much of their "propaganda sounds lixe . pipe dreams. . . .

A Few Minute South of Klamath Falls On Hiway 97 -; CLOSED MONDAY NEVER A COVER CHARGE Heavy sarcasm In his voice, Murray aaid that Elsenhower'! 1948 and 1949 apeeches on social security Introduced a ''fine, states manlike, broad vision of what America should be." He quoted Elsenhower aa laying this: "We seek the Illusion called security. We want to wear fine shlrin and have caviar and cham pagne when we should be eating hotdogs and drinking beer." Smiling broadly, Murray com mented: "Now there'a a philosophy to be Introduced into the American political scene." (In a statement at Denver on Aug. 9, Elsenhower called for ex pansion of the aoclal security program to cover an additional 14 million persons, and for Increased old-age assistance grants.) Murray made a general attack too on the Republican party. He said It has "stood against any legislation to control Inflation.' He said 79 per cent of Senate Republicans "voted consistently against any form of rent control," and that 80 per cent of Senate Republicans and 87 percent of House Republicans favor the Taft Hartley Labor Relations Act which the Democratic party platform pledges to repeal.
