Ives and Morse Sure
Eisenhower Will
Run on 6. @. P. Ticket
BY the Assoeioted Press

Two Republican Senators said
today they are confident Gen.
Eisenhower will be candidate
for President on the G. o. P. ticket
next year. And last night Sena-
tor Duff, Republican, of Pennsyl-
.vania said in radio interview he
expects to get definite and de-
cisive statement from Gen. Eisen-
hover at a meeting about jan
uary /.
Senators Ives or New York and
Morse of Oregon. said in separate
interviews with neWsmen they are
confident the general will win
the Republican nomination and
then go on to defeat President
Truman or any other Democrat.
Senator Duff has been leader,
with. Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of
New York, in booming the World
War II hero for the nomination.
General Available, Ives Says.
Senator Ives. longtime political
ally of Gov. Dewey. said the very
fact Gen. Eisenhower has thus far
kept silent supports his views. He
said:
If Gen. Eisenhower were going
to refuse to be a candidate he
would have said so long ago.
Therefore he would seem to be
definitely available"
Senator Duff spoke on MBS's
Reporters Roundup" He called
the general "the only figure
around whom the American peo-
pie can be united
Senator Ives and other Eisen-
hover supporters said they are
not surprised by a copyrighted
story of the Milwaukee Journal
saying that Gen. Macarthur had
informed Wisconsin Republican
leaders he favors Senator Taft,
Republican, of Ohio.
Aides of Gen. Macarthur in
New York City said he had met
with a Wisconsin Republican
leader, but they would not confirm
or deny the story.
Senator Ives said the Milwaukee
story and a report to Senator Taft
by political advisers that he could
win the nomination simply serve
Us warning to Eisenhower sup
porters that they must redouble
their efforts in his behalf"
Morse Speaks in Senate.
Senator Morse, in a Senate
speech, came out strongly for
Gen. Eisenhower last night after
Senator Brewster, Republican o1
Maine, an ardent Taft backer
said the general was indispens.
able on his present assignment a!

Wonder Drug Value
In Hog Diet Is Dubious
BY the Associated Press

Maryland farmers were advised
yesterday not to go hog wild about
feeding new wonder drugs to their
pigs.
Two speakers advised caution in
talks at the first swine producers
field day sponsored by the Animal
IHusbandry Department of the
College of Agriculture at the Uni
Iversity of Maryland.
About a hundred farmers heard
the lectures in the judging pa
IVilion at the university farm and
took a look at various experiments
under way there with pigs.
For more than year now, some
sections of the feed industry and
some farm publications have been
lwhooping up the use of the anti
biotics. drugs of the penicillin
family. to supplement feeds for
livestock.
M. H. Kerr, university swine
specialist. told the growers today
about experiments here with ba-
Icitracin, one of the wonder drugs.
The experiments are not COM
Iplete. he said, and they are being
continued. but so far bacitracin
has not proved of any significant
value in fattening hogs.
DR.. Joseph Shaw cautioned that
the whole field of anti-biotic feed
supplements should be studied
more before they are used gen.
lerally.

Farley Fails 10 End
Seat Pleasant Feud
Over Volunteer Police

A feud between Seat Pleasant
officials and the volunteer police
force of Gregory Estates Apart
ments has "simmered out" ac-
cording to an attorney for one
of the disputants.
But Hal Silvers, deputy commits
sioner of the 10-man Gregory Es-
tates Police Department, said
yesterday his force is continuing
to ignore an custer order by the
Seat Pleasant Town Council.
Vance v. Vaughan, attorney for
the Municipal Police officers AS
sociation of Prince Georges
County, which directed him to
represent the Gregory Estates po-
licemen in their dispute, said yes
terday Seat Pleasant officials have
agreed to patrol Gregory Estates
with two policemen and every
body appears to be satisfied.
However, Mr.. Silvers said his
men are pretty well fed up" and
he indicated that he is far from
satisfied with the agreement Mr..
Silvers admitted that his volun-
teer force was in a dormant
state" but he said it certainly has
not yet been disbanded, even
though his men no longer carry
weapons.
II don't care to play police
man." he declared. but I want
adequate protection for Gregory
Estates"
He said he does not consider
two town policemen adequate for
the 504-unit apartment develop
ment since they are patrolling
only part time.
The 10 volunteer policemen were
deputiZed by the Town Council
last January to put down a rash
of petty thievery in the develop
ment. according to Joseph B. Gar
della, Seat Pleasant police COM
missioner.
The council then ordered the
Gregory Estates force disbanded
as of July 81 because we now feel
the emergency is over" Mr.. Gar
della said.
The Gregory Estates unit has
ignored the custer order, al
though, on the advice of Mr..
Vaughan, the officers have put
away their guns.

Irate Squirrel Drives
Children From SWinq

A squirrel has forced "off limits
swing in the backyard of the
William K. Clark home at 1905
Yale avenue, College Park. Twice
in the last two weeks the squirrel
has bitten children who occupied
a swing near a large oak tree.
Yesterday, the Clark's 4-year-
old son, William, was scratched
and bitten by a squirrel that
leaped from the tree into his lap
as he was swinging. The injuries
were not serious.
Mrs. Clark called health au-
thorities, who said there was vir-
tually no possibility. of complica-
tions, such as rabies, arising.
Two weeks ago girl from the
neighborhood, who was sitting on
the same swing was also scratched
and bitten. Mrs. Clark, in the
belief that the same animal was
for both attacks, has
warned the children to stay away
from the oak tree.
