I PACK TEN HERALD AND NKWS. KLAMATH FALIS ORKCSON TUKSDAY, OCT. 14, HM2 Nixon Criticizes Stevenson For Action In Hiss Trials By RONALD AVTRV NEW YORK MV-Ben. Richard M Nixon, dcllvcitng a major attack on Gov. Adlal E. Stevenson lant night, called him dmqunllfied lor the presidency by his record on communism. The Republican vice-nresldentlal candidate asserted on a nation- ld radlo-telcvlslon Broadcast tnai the Democratic standard bearer has failed to recognise me tnreav nf cnmmunlMii. Hi added: "In my opinion his actions, his atatementa, his record disqualify him from leading the unltea btatcs and the free nations in the light against Communism at home and abroad. Stevenson's election, the Califor nla senator said, "would mean four more years ot ine same poncy which has been so disastrous at home and disastrous abroad. . . ." . Nixon attacked Stevenson for nis . character deposition for Alger Hiss, former State Department official convicted of perjury after he gave out government secrets for a pre war nussian spy ri"a. And he said the Illinois gover nor's speeches show "he has laiiea to recognize the threat" of Communism. Nixon devoted most of his ad dress to the Hiss case, men leu up to Stevenson's deposition. He crlltciied Stevenson on four grounds In the Hiss matter: The deposition was given after some facts in the case had be come known Whittakcr Chambers' meeting with Hiss and the revela tion of Chambers' famous pump kin papers. . The deposition "was voluntary on Mr. Stevenson's part." "It was given at a time when Tie was governor of Illinois and the prestige of a great elate and the governor of that slate were thrown in behalf of the defendant in this case. "And fourth. It Is significant to me that Mr. Stevenson has never expressed any indignation over what Hiss has done " . Before Hiss' first trial, several government officials gave charac ter depositions for him. Stevenson was asked In the dep osition what he. had heard about Hiss' reputation "for integrity, toy- Police Take Escaped Cons PUNT, Mich. (Pi Three ex-convicts were returned to their cells in the Flint City Jail today ending one of Michigan's most intensive manhunts. The three, Clifford Billings, 34: and Claude Smith, 33. and his brother Lewis. 22, were recap ijyred yesterday. They escaped Sunday from City Jail, gaining their release by forc ixtg turnkey Marvin Besteman to accompany them. Besteman. held at gunpoint throughout the fugi tives' short-lived freedom, escaped unharmed. Police captured the Smith broth ers in the home of a friend in Lansing. Billings, described as the leader of the Jallbreak, was cap tured later while hiding in a farm ditch near Lansing. All surrendered meekly. ally and veracity." He said, "It was good." The first Hiss trial ended In a hung Jury In 1M9. He was con victed at a second trial and is serving five years In prison tor lying before a federal grand Jury. A few months ago, Stevenson gave his view of the deposition on a television show. He said: "As a lawyer, I think that one of the most fundamental responsi bilities, not only for every cltixen, but particularly of lawyers, is to give testimony in a court of law, to give It honestly and willingly, and It will be a very unhappy day for Anglo-Saxon justice when a man, even in public life. Is too timid to state what he knows and what he had heard abut a defen dant In a criminal trial for fear that defendant might later be con victed." The 30-minute Nixon speech over the CBS television and the ABC radio networks drew comment from tile Democratic camp. ' Wilson Wyatt, Stevenson's cam paign manager, said in Spring Held, 111.: "A group of leaders of the Amer ican bar. many of them prominent Republicans, have reviewed the matter of Gov. Stevenson's depo sition in the Hiss case. We are informed that these distinguished attorneys will make public their views in a statement to be issued in New York tomorrow." At Peoria, 111.. Sen John J. Sparkinan of Alabama, Nixon's Democratic opponent, said:' I "Nixon said nothing about John Foster Dulles, Eisenhower's chief adviser on foreign policy, did he. upon whose recommendation Hiss was named president of the Car negie Foundation of International Peace? 'I Just don't subscribe to that guilt by association method that Sen. Nixon follows." Nixon, speaking from a studio without an audience, said he wasnt questioning Stevenson's loy alty, but declared he thought there was "a very grave question" about his judgment. Nixon accused the Washington administration of covering up the Hiss case. He said Chambers had told his story to government offi cials in 193$ and in the 1940s and that no effective action was taken. i li 1 1 mi i ' immmmmmmZ,..
