Eisenhower Lunches
with Churchill, Eden
In Appeal for Troops
by the Associated Pres,


SUPREME HEADQUARTERS
Allied Powers in Europe, Dec. 18
Gen. Eisenhower had British
Prime Minister Winston Churchill
to lunch today in an effort to sell
him on a unified European army
Mr.. Churchill and Foreign Sec
retary Anthony Eden heard long
talk about the same matter from
French leaders yesterday and
showed no signs of relenting.
Gen. Eisenhower, military boss
of western defenses under the
North Atlantic Treaty Organiza-
ton, believes British support fol
the six-nation European Army will
assure its creation, even If the
British do not join it with troops
The European Army is a key
part of Gen. Eisenhower's NATC
plans to build up continental bull
warks capable Of standing off a
Russian attack.
The Eisenhower Churchill lunch.
con meeting lasted 8 hours anc
is minutes.
There was nothing of a par
ticularized character" discussed
Gen. Eisenhower declared. He
said mo decisions were taken."
Mr.. Churchill would say only
that he enjoyed it very much
and his meeting with the supreme
commander was "a wonderful ex-
perience.
Gen. Eisenhower's associates
said the general planned to tell
the two Britons the six-nation
army is workable-and that it is
essential as a means of enlisting
Western Germany in non-Com-
munist defenses without risking
revival of German conquests.
Sees Germans Essential.
The general believes German
force is needed to halt any Rus
sian drive for the channel coast,
from which Britain would be
threatened.
His argument to the British. as
he previously has expressed it. is
that if the European army fails
from lack Of British support. the
British will be exposing them
selves to more danger.
Present plans for the European
army call for it to become a 49,
division segment of NATO forces
under Gen. Eisenhower's COM
mand. He wants to build up
NATO defenses to about 100
divisions by 1854, including
American. British and other
forces in the 12-nation North
Atlantic Alliance.
The European army plan, con-
ceived by French Premier Rene
Pleven. has been agreed to by
France, West Germany. Italy
Belgium, Luxembourg and The
Netherlands.
French Action Incomplete.
But The Netherlands is the
only country to ratify the plan
so far. The French National
Assembly has voted for ratifica-
ton, but the action is not yet
complete. The other four ma
tions are waiting to see what
line Britain follows.
Mr.. Churchill has been a prime
advocate of European unity in
postwar years. But since he re-
turned to leadership in Britain

army.

man argued into last night trying

To Quiz Mystery Man
In Bankhead Case
BY the Assoeioied Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 18.-Prosecu-

a mystery man" today before de-
Gliding whether to call him as q
witness in the trial Of Tallulah
Bankhead's former maid-secre-
tary.
Assistant District Attorney Je-
rome Kidder asked for the address
of John Cronin" yesterday at the
trial of Mrs. Evyleen r. Cronin
SO. charged with forgery and lar
lceny.
Mrs. Cronin, Miss Bankhead's s
former employe, is accused in q
32-count indictment of raising the
actresses checks a total of $4,284
The trial in General Sessions
Court moved into its seventh court
day today with Miss Bankhead
still waiting for a cue to take the
witness stand.
Mr.. Kidder made his request for
the address of "Cronin" after
Judge Harold A. Stevens excused
the jury late yesterday. The judge
directed William E. Clancy, a de-
fense attorney. to give the address
to the prosecutor.
Won't Discuss Man.
1t was understood that Mr.
Kidder was given a Brooklyn ad-
dress.
The assistant district attorney
refused to identify the man.
Defense counsel also refused tc
discuss him.
Mrs. Cronin has said she never
was married to anyone named
Cronin, and just assumed the
name. She said she had divorced
Billy Purcella, of Shelton, Conn.
golf pro. 10 years ago.
But Mr.. Purcella last week sale
he married Mrs. Cronin in 1905
and thought she was still his wife
At yesterdays court session
Mrs. Cronin, a former vaudeville
performer. wept at times as the
jury listened to a transcript oi
statements she made in the dis
trict attorneys Office when the
case broke last January.
Bought Beautiful Things.
The transcript quoted Mrs
Cronin as saying:
She raised the figures on the
checks to buy the 48-year-olc
actress such beautiful things
as a pair Of stone lions for tn,
swimming pool of her home il
Bedford Village, N. Y.
She gave part of the cash from
the checks to Miss Bankhead II
bet on the horses, and the sta
would lose $50, $100, or 5000.
Winners were mot very often"
Mrs. Cronin tempered her state
ments. the transcript continued
by saying Miss Bankhead did no
care for the lions and was mo
the kind that saunders he
money on the races"
Earlier. Judge Stevens rulet
that the only question before tn,
all-male jury is whether Mrs
Cronin had authority to raise tn,
checks.
This seemed to eliminate de-
fense charges that the money
went to furnish booze, cocaine
and sex" for the red-haired star oi

Terrible Mistake
If Eisenhower Runs
By Jock Bell
Associufsd Press Stcff Writer

Senator Kilgore. Democrat. Of
West Virginia said today he thinks
lit would be terrible mistake"
for either political party to ask
Gen. Eisenhower to leave his Eu-
ropean command to run for Pres
ident.
Just back from trip to Europe,
Senator Kilgore said he found an
apparent prevalence of feeling
among the people of France and
Italy that they ought to COM
lpromise with the Russians.
He said that largely through
Gen. Eisenhower's personality and
ability. progress is being made
toward erecting Western Euro
Ipean defenses. He said a two-hour
conference with the general at
his North Atlantic Treaty Organ
ization headquarters convinced
him the general believes the de-
fense goal can be reached. No
politics was discussed. he said.
Fears Loss OF Confidence.
Senator Kilgore said he feels
that no other general could sue
lcessfully fill Gen. Eisenhower's
military and diplomatic shoes in
Europe.
1T would be a terrible mistake
for either party to ask him to
leave his command to run for
President" Senator Kilgore said.
"As a military man, he has the
complete confidence of the West
ern European nations. If he
should undertake a political role.
he might lose that confidence"
Gen. Eisenhower is being
doomed by some Republicans for
their party's presidential nonai-
nation next year.
| Senator Lodge, Republican, of
Massachusetts. national manager
Iof the Eisenhower for President
campaign, yesterday named SEN
ator Carlson. Republican. of
Kansas as head of the Washing
ton Office for the drive.
Truman May Not Run.
Senator Humphrey, Democrat,
of Minnesota told reporter he
thinks Democrats who hope Gen.
Eisenhower might run on their
ticket are barking up the wrong
tree. Senator Kilgore also appar-
emily regards Gen. Eisenhower as
/ a Republican. ,.
| Senator Humphrey, who took
to the White House several weeks
ago a resolution by Minnesota
Democrats urging President Tru-
man to run again, said he is be-
ginning to believe Mr.. Truman
may not be a candidate.
Whoever the nominee is, Sem
ator Humphrey said. the Demo-
Gratis must act swiftly to meet
charges of Corruption" raised by
the Republicans as result of
congressional investigations.
