Observers Note Big Change In Ike; Pushing More Of His Own Decisions
By RAY CROMLEY
NEA Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON (NEA) - Some
thins is happening to President
Eisenhower. .
He'a becoming less conciliatory,
less the man trying to get every
one together, He's pushing more
of his own ideas, giving "a little
more hell" to the opposition.
Says one amazed congressional
leader:
"He's a different man. For the
first time he seems to know what
he wants to do and where he's
going."
IKE IN '57: Little interest or pep.
Dancing Girl Entertains
At Function For President
By PATRICK J. KIIXEN
NEW DELHI (UPI) Presi
dent Eisenhower dined in Oriental
- splendor Thursday night. There
, was even a dancing gin who ad-
milted before her performance
" that the mere thought of dancing
for Ike gave her Hie jitters.
I She was no run-of-the-mill
' dancing girl, but Miss Vaikainti
, Mala, India's leading movie star
and classical dancer. She said she
got all a-twittcr over the idea of
dancing for Eisenhower and his
, host, Indian President Rajenda
Prasad.
"I don't know what to say,"
the beautiful dancer said belore
the dinner, but after her per
formance, Eisenhower walked
over to shake her hand and she
managed to tell him It was a
pleasure to meet him.
Miss Mala, whose most famous
dancing solo puts her in the role
' of a peacock in a costume ot
lanned-out peacock feathers, said
3 Hungarians
Deported
SEATTLE (AP) - Three young
Hungarian freedom fighters,
caught a third time trying to
sneak into the United States Irom
Canada, were ordered deported
Thursday by a sympathetic but
firm federal judge.
Judge William J. Lindboig
placed the trio on probation for
three years after giving them sus
pended sentences of three to six
- months in jail.
He asked the chief probation of-
ficer here to check with Canadian
agencies about finding jobs for
' the men. They will be housed at
, the immigration station until it is
1 learned if jobs await them.
. The three are Tibor Korponay,
" Josef Danay and Jonas Kovak, all
i II. Immigration records show
; they crossed the border Nov. 1 at
- Oroville in Norlhccntral Washing-
" ton and were deported. Alter try
. ing again at Oroville Nov. 20, they
were allowed to go back voluntari
i ly. They siicakcd across at Blaine
r seven days later.
Korponay told I.indberg that if
he went back to Canada. "I don't
. have work to keep alive."
' "I got many friends down here,
I he added. "They all got steady
. jobs.
. The three said they tried to
come to the United Slates origin
; ally, but found they would have to
wait 5 to S years in Europe
; "In IIIS6 I fight in Hungary for
a better life," said Korponay. "I
, leave mother, father, brothers
i What for I lose them'.'"
she was "thrilled" to meet Ei
senhower.
The setting of the black - tie
banquet was the giant pink sand
stone Hashtrapati Bhavan Castle,
originally built by the British (or
their Indian viceroys. More than
120 guests, including Prime Min
istc-r Jawaharlal Nehru and Rus
sian Ambassador I. A. Benedic
tov, attended the affair.
Eisenhower entered A s h o k a
Mall, a massive room with a
ceiling three stories high, flanked
by stalwart lance-bearing guards
in crimson and while uniforms.
He swung around Ibc circle of
guests, shaking the hand of each.
During dinner he told his hosts
he had observed a "remarkable
unity of purpose" in India. He
said the faith of her people, their
dedication and love of country,
showed' "a spirit which will not
be denied no one who has felt
it could fail to be uplifted by it."
Main course of the dinner was
roast turkey with stuffing but no
cranberries. During the course of
the meal the dignitaries exchang
ed toasts in water and fruit juices
India's leaders are teetotalers.
During dinner the lancer guards
stood at their stations around the
room, rigidly at attention, while
the guests chatted and joked and
dined in leisurely fashion.
Proprietor
Kills Thief
Says a Republican Party man:
"He's beginning to understand
politics and why you have got to
do certain things . . . and why
you can't keep everybody happy.
Only It's about six years late."
Says another Republican Con
gressman: "We've been trying to get Ike
to use his influence for years, get
in and fight, use the pressures
he's got. He's always said 'Why
do that?' Now he says 'I'll see
to it. We'll take care of that.'
"Boy, he's really exerting lea
dership." Says a man who has watched
him closely in the While House:
"There was a time there in 1957
and 11)58 he seemed tired of his
job. He didn't have much interest
or pep. Now that he's making his
own decisions for the first time,
he's beginning to like his job a
lot better. He seems happier."
"Nowadays." says one admin
istration official, "if the President
heads into opposition, he talks
about taking his argument . to the
people on TV, or he threatens an
extra session of Congress."
Says one key Republican Con
gressman gratefully:
"He's not missing the little tricks
that will help some of us get re
elected. Before, he didn't seem to
think that sort of thing was im
portant." What's caused the change? There
seems to be agreement on that,
too. First, Sherman Adams, the
White House major domo, re
signed. And then Secretary of Slate
John Foster Dulles became ill and
died.
Says one man close to the White
House:
"Shcrm tried to keep details
off the President. He made up his
mind, then gave ' Ike the papers
to sign. The President often didn't
know what went into the decisions.
He trusted Adams, didn't do much
thinking about why things were
done. And he leaned on Dulles like
nobody's business. When Dulles
thought something was the thing
to do, Ike always went along.
"Then Adams left. General Per
sons (the man who took Adams'
place) is a different sort of man.
He can make decisions, if neces
sary, but he puts a lot more up
to the President. Ike began to un
derstand why you had to do some
things for political reasons, what
political pressures really meant in
practice, what you were going to
have to do if you were going to
push things through against de
termined opposition. He began to
see how government works . . .
not storybook style, but in reality.
He'd been too sheltered before.
"Then Dulles died. And the Pres
ident became his own Secretary of
State. That's not to say Hertcr
isn't good at his job. I think he
is. But he's not so close to Ike
as Dulles was. The President is
making decisions, making up his
own mind on foreign affairs. This
is doing him a lot of good."
And the President has done some
thinking recently. He's not goin.
to be running for anything after
he retires from the Presidency.
He can't get reelected; that's the
law. He doesn't want any other
office. He's not looking for any
position. He wants to retire. And
Mrs. Eisenhower enthusiastically
seconds the idea. So he doesn't
feel obligated to anybody.
Dwight Eisenhower all his life
has tried to be the conciliator, to
get along. His fame in Europe
was based largely on his ability
as a super diplomat. He was able
to weld a mixed bag of star-stud
ded military prima donnas into a
victorious team.
President Eisenhower has been
trying the same technique with
Congress. And it hasn't worked
very well. Now he's made up his
mind to talk cold turkey to Con
gress to get through the bills he
figures have got to get through
this year and next.
He's going to call in congres
sional leaders with more regular
ity, or pass the word down, that
he wants action, and that If he
doesn't get it he'll do something
about it. He'll fight.
As one key political worker put
it "Ike has at last learned that
conciliation and being the nice man
to everybody doesn't work in poli
tics."
BASIN BRIEFS
Los Angeles Man, Wife
Facing Charges On Dope
SEATTLE ' AP) - The propri
etor of a Seattle gun shop traded
shots with two holdup men Thurs
day uight. One man was killed,
(he other wounded and the shop
owner beaten.
Stanley Baker, 33, said the men
came into his shop on the pretext
of buying a rifle, then proceeded
lo loot his display case of revolv
ers when he stepped into a back
room for a box in which to place
the rifle.
Baker, covering the men with a
pistol, tried to call police. Then,
he said, one of the intruders
sought lo wrest the pistol from his
hand and a struggle ensued.
Baker was beaten across the
back of the neck with a rifle butt.
Several shots were exchanged and
the men fled the shop, taking four
revolvers.
Police picked up two men with
in an hour. Kenneth Earl Elliott.
31, of Tacoma, an ex-convict, was
found shot in the chest. He died
on the way lo a hospital. The
o'her man, William J. Bohn. Ti,
of The Dalles, Ore., had a hand
wound. He was identified as El
liott's nephew.
LOS ANGELES (UPI)-A man
and his wife who lived in a
$50,000 home in an exclusive sub
urban area and employed a maid
faced charges today as part of
a gang accused of importing and
selling 20 million dollars worth of
heroin in the past five months.
Robert Newton Gardner, 36,
and his attractive wife, Charlene.
25, were arrested Thursday at
their Buena Park home. Also ar
rested were Hector Verdugo, 33,
El Sereno, Calif., and Johnny
Salazar Jr., 23, of nearby Monte-
bello.
Police said they found a cache
of $150,000 worth of heroin hidden
in the Gardner garage. The ar
rests climaxed a four-month in
vestigation by Los Angeles, stale
and Buena Park police. The Gard
ner home had been under 24-hour
surveillance for the past month,
police said.
Gardner admitted to police he
was leader of the ring which did
a million-dollar a week narcotic
business, according lo Detective
Sgts. Ed Sanchez and Joe Aguirre.
Gardner and his wife were
members of a country club in the
area and took part in the suburb's
social life, Sanchez said. Gardner
actually is an ex-convict and had
no regular job, police said. His
only income was $135 from a
monthly annuity.
"But on this he has maintained
a maid, two expensive cars and
belongs to a country club."
Gardner and his wife have one
child who was taken to juvenile
hall following the arrests. Gard
ner and the others were all booked
on felony narcotics charges. Mrs
Gardner was later released on
bond.
Mrs. Gardner admitted accom
pnnying her husband on trips to
.Mexico and living there in a lav
ish manner but denied any knowl
edge of heroin transactions. Police
said Gardner purchased about six
pounds of uncut heroin weekly in
Mexico from a man identified as
Big Mike Barrigan" and then
gave it to a "runner" to bring
into the United States while he
followed at a safe distance but
close enough to keep watch on
the man carrying the heroin.
Sanchez said pure heroin sells
tor $10,000 an ounce when peddled
to users. He said the two other
men, arrested, Verdugo and Sal
azar, distributed the heroin after
it was brought back to the U.S.
Both men refused to make state
ments to police.
Police said they learned of
Gardner's dealings Aug. 5 when
they arrested Louis Padilla, 36,
Wilmington, Calif., and seized
$350,000 worth of heroin.
Gardner has served prison
terms for armed robbery, kidnap
ing and abortion, police said.

GOP Tickets
Are Scarce
CHICAGO (AP)-Chances of get
ting a ticket to the Republican Na
tional Convention next year are
mighty slim.
Planners reported Thursday
night that only 2,800 tickets will
be available to the general public
That compares with , 3,454 in
1956, when the GOP met in Cow
Palace in San Francisco; and 3,000
in 1952 when the Republicans met
in Chicago's International Amphi
theatre for the first time.
Jaren L. Jones, of Utah, vice
chairman of the convention ar
rangements committee, told news
men only 2,800 tickets will be left
for distribution to the 50 states
after the party takes care of dele
gates, officials and VIPs.
One reason for the reduction is
that the amphitheatre, the site of!
the 1960 nominating rally, has 3,000
fewer seats than the Cow Palace.
The amphitheatre can seat about
12,000. Another reason is a pros
pective increase in the number of
delegates.
