OREGON PAGE SEVEN Eisenhower Says Nation Must Have 'Sound Dollar' WASHINGTON Iff President Eisenhower said Thursday one difference between his adminis tration and the Democratic lead ership is that the Democrats are not particularly concerned with maintaining a sound dollar.

Eisenhower said the Republi can administration stands for economy, sound handling of fiscal affairs, and the greatest possible decentralization of government. . Kecalling a quotation he attrib uted to Thomas Jefferson to. the effect that the least government is the best government. Eisenhow er said his administration seeks to give the maximum responsi bility to: state and local govern ments, with the federal govern ment coming in as a quick and willing partner when needed. the remarks were prompted by a reporter who asked Eisenhow er's views on what are the real issues which will settle the elec tion. Eisenhower said the Issues boil down to the management of the country s affairs at home The Republicans, he said, are more concerned about avoiding interference in things that people can do for themselves. While the country must advance such programs as unemployment insurance, social security, health programs and education, Eisen hower said, it must also give room for the effort and ingenuity of a free people to produce the great results ol which they are capame. The Democratic Party, Eisen hower added, starts from the other end. He said the Democratic phil osophy is to start with the gov ernment and run things from there. . tion Security Council.

WASHINGTON Wl A House inquiry into polio vaccine pric ing got off to a stormy start Thursday when. Rep. Reese (R Tenn) charged that the polio pro gram was being made a "political football" just before election day. Reese is the lone Republican member of a House Government Operations subcommittee investi gating government vaccine purch ases and pricing practices of drug manufacturers. He said at the outset - he had "grave apprehen sions" over an inquiry at this time. I think it s very, very un fortunate," Reese, said, "that we are put in the position of playing politics with such a service as the Public' Health Service, which in the whole course of its history has never been involved in pol itics." '., - The ' subcommittee, headed by Rep. Fountain JD-NQ), summoned federal health officials for a re port on administration of the fed eral vaccine assistance program under which 27 million dollars of Merrill Plans Festival Booth MERRILL Plans for a food booth at the Klamath Basin Po tato Festival were made on Mon day evening, October 8, at the meeting of the Merrill Manners held at the Presbyterian Church.

In a memorandum by its staff, the subcommittee noted that the five licensed vaccine manufdetur- made "substantially identi cal" bids to supply vaccine to the government under three contract awards from October 19S5 through June, 19o6. Reese objected to what he called a nefarious implication in the memorandum of a con spiracy to fix prices. He aid "the American people will resent any attempt by a political party to make a political football" out of the polio program. Reese also criticized what he said was a "leak" of the memo randum to a newspaper columnist and called it "trying the case in the newspapers" before the hear ing began. . Fountain ordered the hearing to proceed saying it was the duty of a subcommittee to find out "just what the) facts are.' Before the hearing. Fountain said "certainly an antitrust ques tion is involved." wards. Hammarskjold also talked with Yugoslav Foreign Minister Koca Popovic.

French Foreign Minister Christian Pin eau said the talks had been "pure exploration. . British Foreign Secretary Set- wyn Lloyd continued to insist that there was no basis for published reports that Britain had modified her insistence on international con trol of the 103-mile waterway Egyptian President Nasser took over July 26. "There is no new British plan," Lloyd told newsmen. "There has been no switch in British policy."
