Ike, Political Aides Eye Storm Over Wilson's Talk DENVER W President Eisen hower and his political lieutenants today kept a sharp eye on the stormy repercussion to Secretary of Defense Wilson's unemployment "dog" story and hoped to counter act Republican, Democratic and labor criticism. The White House clearly Is wor ried about what effect Wilson's re marks which he says were dis torted and are being used for polit ical advantage by the Democrats will have on the Nov. 2 congres sional elections. The concern at the President's vacation headquarters here be came evident yesterday when Ei senhower himself came to Wilson's defense and sought to soften the Impact on the hard-fought Repub lican campaign to keep control of Congress. The chief executive acted criticism .of Wilson came from a few GOP candidates for Congress, from Democratic opponents, and from CIO President Walter Heti' ther and AFL chief George Meany. In effect rejecting Reuther's de mand that Wilson be made to re tract his statements or be ousted irom the- Cabinet,, Eisenhower ex pressed confidence in his Cabinet member in these words: "I never have found him in the slightest degree indifferent to hu man misfortune." ' The furor the President was at tempting to quiet was touched off by Wilson at a Detroit news con ference Monday. He said then he has "a lot of sympathy" for the unemployed, but always had 'liked bird dogs better than kennel-fed dogs." Then he added: ''You know, one who'll get out and hunt for food rather than sit on his fanny and yell." In the aftermath, critics contend ed that was an unwarranted slap at the unemployed. Wilson, former president of .Gen eral Motors Corp., fired back yes terday with a statement that he intended "no invidious compari sons, nor Insinuations likening peo ple to dogs in any sense." He added: "I am sure that the distorted version of what I said is being used bv the people of the adverse political party trying to capitalize on a misinterpretation of the full meaning" of what I actually said." The secretary said he related the "bird dog vs. kennel dogs" story to underscore that "I ad mired spirit and Initiative" in hunting for jobs. Police Discover Secret Factory HAVANA, Cuba W Police Chief Rafael Salas Canizares said today his agents discovered a secret ex plosive factory in Havana's China town. He charged it was set up as part of a terrorist plot to disrupt Cuba's Nov, 1 presidential elec tions. Salas reported more than 100 suspects have been arrested in j connection with the alleged plot, i Although none was identified, the j police chief said all are members ; of the National Revolutionary i Movement (MNR). i Salas said police agents uncov- ered the factory last night, find ing documents relating to the al-, leged plot and unspecified quanti ties of dynamite and other explo si"es. i Salas accused MNR chief Rafael j Garcia Barcenas, a University of i Havana professor, of heading the ; plot. Ho said Garcia left Cuba two days ago for Miami, Fla. At Eisenhower's headquarters here the reaction on the part of his aides seemed to be to regard the Wilson episode as one of the bad "breaks" that turn up in al' most every campaign. A presidential associate who asked not to bs named said it would take several days to eval uate the extent of the impact. He said the situation would be watched carefully and dealt with as its develops. Meanwhile. Eisenhower kept busy with other political strategy aimed at attracting favorable at tention to the GOP drive to. main-! tain control of Congress. , He arranged to put in more work today on a speech he will make in Indianapolis Friday night on a major campaign issue the admin-1 istration's farm program. The half-hour speech in Butler University fieldhouse at 9 p.m.. EST, will be carried by 60 Du Mont television network stations and the time will be paid for by the Republican National Commit tee. The White House said plans are also being made to purchase radio time. , . Du Mont said the telecast" won't go east of Ohio, west of Utah or south of Tennessee. . Eisenhower's headquarters an nounced late yesterday that on Oct. 23 he will make still another ef fort to keep the Republicans in power in Congress. He will be host then to Penn sylvania GOP candidates for Con gress and state offices at an out door luncheon at his Gettysburg farm. GEORGETOWN. Del. tfi The question of readmitting 11 Negro children to the previously all white high school in Milford, Del., rests with the State Court of Chan cery today. Arguments were presented yes terday in the court heforo Vice Chancellor William Marvel, who did not indicate when he would announce his finding. Meanwhile. State Ally. Gen. H. Albert Young said he would is sue new subDoenas today through the Court of Chancery to obtain the financial and membership rec ords of the National Assn. for the Advancement of White People. Bryant Bowles, national presi dent of the NAAWP, has retused to turn them over to Young, con tending that they must be sub' poenaed through a court. Bowles and the NAAWP have been in the forefront of the move for segregated schools. As a suit of pressures brought by the NAAWP, Negro pupils who attend- ed the Milford High School for the first three weeks of the fall term this year were ordered to be re turned to a Negro school in Dover. Young, in his capacity as at torney general, asked Marvel yes terday to order the return of the 11 Negro pupils. He said that the ruling he sought "will arm Dela ware officials "with the kind of decree where we can get those people who are trying to destroy our community and destroy our laws." campaign. Republicans are seeting to put the Eisenhower administration and the President's personal popularity on the line. Vice President Richard M. Nixon has denounced Neutwrger as a left-wing Democrat. Sen. Wayne Morse tlnd-Ore), who bolted the GOP and is backing the Demo cratic ticket, has said Cordon is an isolationist and reactionary. Cordon supporters profess to be confident the help-Eisenhower an neal will tell the difference on eleo lion lor tne state s senior senaior. Democratic spokesman acknow ledge Eisenhower is held in gener al esteem but contend mere is a feeling of letdown against the ad ministration itslf. Neuberger, 41, a nationally known writer and a state senator iiice 1948, advocates public owner ship and management of power facilities. He pictures the 64-year-old Cordon as "the senator of the giveaway." Cordon, he says, has "betrayed" Oregon on power mat ters. rordun denies he or the admini stration is giving anything away. He says he upholds me sysiem oi nrivate enterprise, as against "su perstate paternalism." Defending his support of government partner ship with private concerns to mm out more kilowatts, he said: "I favor any sound proposition which will Increase power for the Pacific Northwest and do it rapid ly." ' Cordon, appointed to the Senate in 1944 and elected in 1948, some times differs with the administra tion, although he saya "I'm 100 per cent for Elsenhower." The President has spoken up for Cordon, and Douglas McKay, a popular Oregon governor before he heeame secretary of the Interior, returned to campaign for Cordon when it looked as though he needed help. As for himself. Cordon seeks re election on his 10-year record with out special emphasis on Eisenhow er's call for a Republican Con gress. Democrats are staging a vigor ous drive in two congressional dis tricts. Republicans say they are hopeful, however, of retaining par tv members in all four seats and electing McKay's gubernator ial successor. Paul Patterson, to his own four-year term. Joseph K, Carson Jr., a former mayor of Portland, it the Democratic can didate for governor. Democrats have made . some gains in registration and aroused dormant party organizations in a number of counties. Republicans continue to hold lead, however, in registrations.
