Kisenhower spoke to a national food conference, but his words appeared boiimcd directly at for iner President Marry S. Truman. At u Democratic money raising dinner in his honor, Truman lit into the Kisenhower administra tion Saturday night. He said it had urtnigm live years ot economic misrule which produced a Re publican recession in the United Mutes and had damaged confi dence in this country overseas. Hitting back without the use of names, Kisenhower said the na tion is stronger man it is repre sented to be by people who are walling about conditions. lhese are times lor courage and common sense. Kisenhower said. These, he said, can prevent what he acknowledged is an eco nomic dip from becoming serious. Other Republicans started snip ing back angrily over the week end, but the White House said Ki senhower had no comment.

Korea (LP) - The United Nations demanded to day, and the Communists prompt ly relused, prompt return ot the j Korean airliner and its 34 pas- i sengers and crew highjacked by communist agents jast week. Two Americans piloted the j plane. The 90-minute meeting of the Military Armistice Commission I in this town in the demilitarized zone between North and South Korea broke up in a wrangle over the competence of the com mission to discuss the incident. Maj. Gen. Olaf Kyster, senior U. S. delegate, claimed the com mission was empowered to take up the Incident because he said the hijacking was a violation of the Korean armistice. Kyster demanded the Reds pre sent the passengers before the commission to be ."individually Investigated" about the circum stances of the incident. Kyster told the Communists the Red agents "clearly violated" the armistice agreement by forcing the plane to fly into North Korea. North Korea's Maj. Gen. Kang Sango Ho angrily rejected the de mand. The Communists refused lo return the plane or its passengers last week. They insisted that the case was the subject of direct ne gotiations between the govern ments of North and South Korea. Some 30 Communist newsmen who attended the meeting told western correspondents that all the persons aboard the plane are well. The Red reporters said the cie wand passengers are in Py ongyang, the Communist capital, have received new clothing and are receiving all possible hu manitarian treatment."

Nixon made the comment in a brief breakfast speech before the National Food Conference, where he substituted for President Eisen hower. The President canceled his scheduled speech in order to fly to Phoenix, Ariz., to take Mrs. Kisenhower to a vacation spot.

(UP)- Two S50.000 homes that began slipping down a cliff overlooking Lake Merritt underwent demolition to day because of the threat they posed to residents below. Mayor Clifford Rishell ordered the houses razed after they slipped more than six feet down the 150-foot cliff Sunday. The owners, Meyer Lightner and Phillip Schreibner, agreed to the demolition. Both houses were insured. The mayor promised the city would make a settlement to the owners. - , "The houses had to be destroyed because of the danger to the peo ple beiow," Mayor Rishell said. Earlier, two apartment houses and a house immediately below the slide area had to be vacated. Also endangered by the slide was the home of Charles Soda, a neighbor of Lightner's and Schrei bners. A construction crew shored up the foundation of his house arid Soda "hoped" it would be all right. The trouble began last Thurs day when a sewer line burst un der an overload of rain water, flooding the hillside. atoard the unskine Special PUT AN ELECTRIC CLOTHES DRYER IN YOUR HOME AND TAKE WORK AND WEATHER OUT OF WASHDAY If SEE YOUR FAVORITE APPLIANCE DEALER!

He said the U.S. economy is free, sound and "much too strong to be talked into a depression by any group of politicians." The conference brought together some 800 representatives of food industries, agricultural groups and other interested citizens for the promotion of nutrition and good diet habits in America. At the opening of the one-day session, Charles B. Shuman, pres ident of the American Farm Bu reau Federation, said the meeting would "focus public attention on the importance of food and the great danger which faces the American people by their careless or unknowing attitude toward hu man nutrition. Nixon, who admitted he had been reading up on the subject of nu trition, cited what he had read about the importance of eating a good breakfast. He said it was particularly im portant for politicians. Nixon ex plained that eating a good break fast was supposed "to reduce irritability," and this would be good for politicians because they wouldn't lose their tempers when they read what their opponents said about them in the morning papers. , Oregon Weather Western Oregon More rain Monday night and Tuesday; mild.

"We decided we should not stand for being belabored," he said. "We felt we couldn't just take this we should answer him."

Knife, Fork Program Set Members of the Klamath Knife and Fork Club will have the op portunity this evening at 6:45 in the Willard Hotel to see and listen to the man many of them have heard each Sunday morning broadcast over the nationwide CBS network from Temple Square, Salt Lake City. Their guest of honor is Richard L. Evans, more intimately known for his Sunday morning broadcast of "Music and the Spoken Word," with the Tabernacle Choir and organ. Each Sunday morning since uug, Evans, one of the Council of Twelve of the Mormon Church has done the "spoken word" on this pro gram. He is said to be the most consistently heard man in radio today. Radio, however, is not Evans' lone endeavor. He spends much time writing, and his many well received books indicate he is a master of the written word as well as the oral. From 1946 to 1952 he was a feature writer for Hearst's King Features Syndicate. Today he is widely known for his weekly syn dicated newspaper column which is circulated in millions of Ameri can homes. The author of seven books, Evans also does free lance writing, and many of his articles have ap peared in Reader's Digest, Coro net, Look, the Encyclopedia Britan nica and other periodicals.
