BY The A..oeiaied Pres.

NEW YORK, Nop 1-Gen.
Eisenhower issued the tollowing
election aUeek-end statement to-
night:
On this week end before elec-
ton day, the American people
have a right to have a brief
summary of the pledges that I
have made to them during this
campaign.
These pledges I renew.
They are an expression of my
beliefs and my purposes.
They constitute program of
progress for the United States
Of America.
/. I pledge that if elected, the
President of the United States
will serve all the people, ire
spective of their race, their
creed. their national origin, and
irrespective of how they voted.
2, I pledge that the social
gains achieved by the people,
whether enacted by a Repub-
lican or Democratic administra-
ton, are not only here to stay
but are here to be improved and
extended.
3. I pledge a restoration Of
integrity and competence in our
National Government. The new
administration will not tolerate
any deviation from an uncom.
promising code of honesty and
ethics in Government service.
Would Battle Imitation.
4. pledge that the full re-
sources of our new administra-
tion will be thrown into the
battle against imitation. Only
if the steady whiting away Of
the value of the dollar is
stopped, can our farmers, our
factory and white collar work.
ers, our aged. find any security
in their savings, social benefits
or pensions.
S. I pledge an elimination of
waste. inefficiency and duplica-
ton in Government. Expendi-
lures and. consequently, taxes
are too high. We must take
steps that will make a reduction
possible. One such step we can
take Immediately. We can elm
mate waste and extravaganza
in Government and give our
people a dollars service for
each tax dollar received.
6. I pledge that will support
and strengthen, not weaken, the
laws that protect the American
worker. I will defend him
against any action to destroy
his union or his rights. I will
enlist every resource-of private
industry and of the Federal
Government-to protect him
against the awful consequences
OF depression and joblessness. I

Mrs. Crosby
Continued From First Page.)

Crosby last Monday. Thereafter
she received the sacraments OF
the church, including extreme
unction.

many months ago." said Mon
signor. Concannon, who is pastor

the Good Shepherd. "The inten-
tion has always been there" His
congregation includes many film
stars, including Bing.
In Poor Health Since 1945.
Mrs. Crosby has not been well
for several years. In 1945 she was
Ill with pneumonia. In 1916 her
health again declined. Last July
she underwent a serious abdomi-
NAL operation. Crosby was in
France making a film at the time.
Doctors had told him the psyche
logical effect upon Mrs. Crosby
would be bad if he delayed the
trip abroad on account of her
surgery.
Mrs. Crosby did not recover
properly from the operation. When
Bing returned last Saturday, she
met him at the depot-againSt
doctors orders.
The next day she suffered a re-
lapse.
Mrs. Crosby was born Wilma

attended Sophie Wright School in
New Orleans. Later the family
moved to Chicago, where she at
tended Sem High School. Even

engagement at Chicago's Lincoln
Tavern. and it was there she
took the name Dixie Lee.

DISCUSSES COrruptlOn.
Mrs. Hobby questioned Gen.
Eisenhower regarding the corrup-
tion-in- Government issue.
Mrs. Hobby said it has become
difficult. in the light Of the situa-
ton in Washington. to teach
respect for Government.
Cen Eisenhower agreed. and
added: ,.s. =
They are robbing us Of our
pride in Government" -
He said peace depended upon
prosperity.
There can be no strong Amer
lea If there are II or u million
unemployed" he said. "We must
have a prosperous, employed
America If we're going to have
peace"
The General said that never
again must there "be any mass
unemployment"
He made this response to Mrs.
Hobby when she said that the ad-
ministration was trying to
frighten people by saying, Don't
let them take it away"
Would Bring in Experts.
Mr.. Douglas asked Gen. Eisen-
hover what he would do to give
small businesses relief, saying they
had been burdened bV the Gov
ernment's fiscal and tax policies.
IT don't qualify as an expert" /"
Gen. Eisenhower said. saying he
would bring together labor, fiscal
and business experts to help solve
the business problems.

tance he covered in his cause four
years ago.
Kiel auditorium was iammed,
police estimating the crowd at
$4,000. It was a repeat perform
ance for the President, who closed
the campaigns of 1948 and 1852
at the site. and his arrival touched
off an ovation that he checked
only by pointing to his watch and
the microphones.
Tells of Letters.
He opened by telling the cheer
ing crowd he had received more
than 10000 letters since his whis-
itle-stopping started. and they were
5 to l in favor his drive.
That brought a new burst of
applause, and he drew another
with a fiat prediction of victory
Tuesday.
The inevitable "give 'em hell,
Harry" came from a far corner,
when the President asserted that
the Republicans this year have
put on a strange and fearful
campaign, "likening it again to
an advertising campaign to sell
a new brand of soap.'"
The audience continued to in
terrupt with applause as the
President continued, and his
first mention of "McCarthyism"
brought "boos."
Hoover Spared.
AS the President sailed into
isolationists, he eliminated from
his prepared text a crack at
former President Hoover.
The reference omitted was car
ried in the prepared text as
follows:
mo Republican candidate, now
adays, will get up and make a
speech telling us that we ought to
withdraw behind the oceans and
ignore the rest of the world. They
leave speeches like that for Her
bert Hoover, who isn't running
for anything"
Someone in the audience yelled,
Send him back to the Army" as
he continued his ,drumf1re against
Gen. Eisenhower, and the Presi-
dent retorted:
That's what I say"
He has been on the road from
coast to coast for the better part
of the time since Labor Day, and
has taken to the back platform in
all but three of the States he has
entered-Maine, Nevada and
Nebraska.
"a vote for the Republicans is
a vote for Taft-controlled Con-
gress-and that would mean such
a hacking and chopping at our
own defenses and the defenses of
the free world as we have never
seen BEFORE" the President said.
communism would feed and
grow fat on what the isolationists
would whack out of our budget.
Irony Suggested.
eve would have the ultimate
irony of a general who stood for
the defense of the free world, when
he was in uniform. presiding over
the liquidation of our foreign pol
icy.
Indeed, his campaign tactics
have already begun to undermine
our unity in the struggle against
communism, even before the elec-
ton.
knowing very we'll that the
Communist aggression was an un-
provoked and deliberate crime, he
has nevertheless tried to create
the impression that it was some

cess in this struggle in Korea is
essential to the whole effort of the
free world against communism
he has talked about it as if it were
a distant conflict which is no real
concern of ours.
Deception Charged.
knowing that we cannot with
draw our troops without collapsing
the front and giving up all we
have fought for, he raises false
hopes that he can bring our SOL
'diers home promptly. and with
Fout appeasement.
Knowing very we'll what ire

in creating a tough South Korean
army of 400, 900 men. he yet sug-
gests that his old friends and COL
leagues in the armed services have
been delinquent in this task, and
careless of the lives of American
soldiers"
The President came back to his
home State to find things looking
up. Missouri went Democratic by
100000 votes four years ago. and
victory by at least 100000 is in
the cards this year according to
observers. Stuart Symington.
former key man in the Truman
administration, is expected to win
the seat now held by Senator
KEN, Republican, by huge
majority. The President backed

boarded the special train yester-
day.
Immediately after voting Mr..

En- route to st. Louis, the Pres
ident made a final appeal for
Democratic votes in Indiana and
Illinois, where he had campaigned
earlier.
At Danville, ILL.,, home of the
famed Joe Cannon, long Speaker
OF the House. Mr.. Truman got a
good-sized noontime crowd, and
talked of crop prices.
He had fun with the Danville

column covering happenings in
the area 20 years ago. reported
that December wheat had hit A

to the paper. The current quota
ton is around $2.37.
Boy Tells of Payment.
A big "Ike" placard was Haunted
in the Presidents face there as
he spoke. and he didn't seem too
upset when some one charged on
its youthful owner, and tore it
down. The boy told reporters that
a man in the courthouse" had
given him 81 to wave it when the
President spoke. It was the second
time on the whistle-stop expedi-
ton that a young Eisenhower

Several years ago, after numer
-ous minor accidents Chat well
could have been fataD, a 15-mile
speed limit sign was placed at the
entrances of the alley between
Seventh and Ninth Avenues. Most
of the time these signs were hid
den by shrubbery. In the ma
icrity of cases, they were COM
pletely ignored by motorists, who
sped through the alley in utter dis
regard of safety of children.
Seventh Avenue is an extremely
busy street. On Seventh Avenue
and Sherman, is st. Monica's
Church and Nilsson, which extends
south nearly a block. The South
Side Boys Club is situated in that
area Many of the youngsters from
the project frequent these places,
crossing the busy street every day.
A 15-mile speed zone in the en-
tire project district at all times
may prevent unnecessary TRACE
dies and hinder unavoidable
deaths" from police records.
School crossings are not the only
points which require constant Wig
iiance for children darting unex-
pectedly in front of approaching
vehicles. 1t is impossible for par
ents be they ever so cautious, TO
prevent a small child from running
into the streets at some time. But
a cautious driver, ever alert for
such possibilities, at least gives
a small life a chance to continue.
Had speed limit been in effect
little Andrew Golden, would have
had his birthday cake with three
little candles on July %.
Now as that sorrowing mother
gazes through tear dimmed eyes at
baby toys now useless, other moth
ers wonder fearfully, will my
baby be next?"
And again the question arises in
the hearts Of mothers chow many
heartaches and tears must we en-
dure before the lives and limbs of
Our children will be secure?

ANDREWS AN CANCEL" NOW

ANDREWS AN CANCEL" NOW
To the editor of The Arizona Sun
Your editorial in last weeks is
sue concerning the tragic death of
Baby Golden" should strike home
to every parent, especially those
having small children.
"Andrew's an angel now"
In addition to your thoughts on
the matter would like to add this:
These pathetic words are spoken
daily now by the 7-year-old lad.
who witnessed the tragic death Of
his little brother.
He shed no tears as he tries
vainly to comfort a grieving moth
er. His shock at sudden death has
held back the tears that would
bring relief. Added to his grief lies
the fear that the fault of mis-
brothers death was his. Over and
over again, he asks, Mama, did
I make Andrew die?"
Little Andrew Golden met his
death under the wheels of an auto
mobile, July 19, on Seventh Ave-
nue., near Hadley Street He had
gone to the Dairy Queen" with
his brother for an ice cream cone.
The mother waited for the chill
dren's return, but there was no re-
turn for Andrew.
Mrs. Golden, only few moments
before, had been happily sending
cut invitations to the baby's birth
day party. Three days hence, he
would have been 3 years old.
A coroner's jury decided at the
inquest that the accident was un-
avOidable.
On April 20, 1947, little Erma
Mae White, age 3, was struck by
huge truck and instantly killed
or Seventh Avenue at Tonto, less
than block from the spot where
Andrew met his death. Again death
was termed unavoidable"
Now the question arises to it's
full height, how many unavoidable
deaths will it take in that area,
thickly populated by small chill
dren, before proper protection is
given them?
Just two weeks ago, the 8-year-
old daughter of Mrs. James Nick
son, was struck by a car, as she
rode her bicycle, in the alley be-
tween Seventh and Ninth Avenues
near Sherman Street. The girl
luckily was only slightly injured,
but the bike was demolished.
All these accidents, and there
are many more not mentioned,
have occurred on, or in front of
the premises of the Mathew Hen
son Housing Project. This Project
houses approximately 1000 chill
dren. At least tWo-thirdS of these
children are under II years of age
