ST. LOUIS. Sept. 20.-If Senator
Nixon cannot prove to the salts
faction of an overwhelming num-
ber Of American citizens that his
financial dealing have been clean
as a hounds tooth, he is on his
way out.
This. on the highest authority
aboard this campaign train, is the
way Gen. Eisenhower is thinking
about the Nixon episode.
The general has said in two
statements that he is keeping an
open mind on the facts and the
implications in the vice presiden-
ial candidates support by a group
of wealthy Californians. He means
just what he says. He will make
every effort to bring every fact of
the situation to light, then he will
decide what to do.
Stresses Single Standard.
The decision will be based on
the principle expressed in the
generals statement about the
Nixon matter in Kansas City when
he said: Both he and I believe in
q single standard of morality in
public life.
In Gen. Eisenhower's code this
means that the standards of
morality which apply to his po-
litical opponents apply equally to
his political associates. He means
to carry out that principle to the
letter.
The way he looks on the situa-
ton is this:
If Senator Nixon received
$4,000 from the California group
and used it exclusively to cru
Sade against communism, he be-
1ieves there would be nothing
unethical about it.
#, however, the money was
used to supplement the Senator's
personal salary-to provide him
with personal or social advan-
tageS that he might not other
wise have enjoyed, it is not ethical.
Feels at Disadvantage.
The general feels at a disad-7
vantage in the Nixon case because
Of his own ignorance of political
custom and practice-particularly
when it comes to what Senators
do or don't do by way Of supple
menting their incomes. But he
is determined that this case must
be made clear to any fair minded
observer or the explanation won't
be good enough.
If, when the facts are in, the
general is not satisfied, he will
press for the Senator's resignation
from the vice presidential nomi-
nation.
Contrary to the impression CIV
en- in his public statements. the
general is dismayed and greatly
shocked by the situation that has
developed.
He got his first full account of
the matter early Friday morning
His immediate reaction to the
newspaper story was that if it
were true, it looked bad for Sena-
tor Nixon.
The general intends to get his
facts if possible by telephone.
There is a possibility that Senator
Nixon will be asked to interrupt
his own campaign tour and fly
to meet the general somewhere in
the country where they can talk
the situation over face to face.
The big problem-and the basis
for the generals incredulity about
the newspaper .accounts-is that
he likes Senator Nixon personally.
In judging the case he hopes to
keep personalities out of the pic
ture. Therefore, it is likely that a
decision will be reached before

Candidate Draws Cheers.
The Mosque Auditorium was
filled to it's capacity of 5000, with
an unsegregated audience. Ne
groes were seated in all parts of
the hall.
Gov. Stevenson was greeted
with thunderous applause when
he walked onto the stage after a
glowing introduction from Gov.
Battle. Said the Virginia Gov
|ernor:
II have the honor to present
a personal friend in whom I have
complete confidence. He is a di-
rect lineal descendant of at least
eight members of the House of
Burgesses of Virginia. He is a
great governor, a great patriotic
American, and I believe he will
make a great President Of the
United States"
When Gov. Stevenson was in
troduced there were rebel yells
mingled with the applause. which
lasted several minutes.
When 1t subsidized Gov. Steven
son remarked that it isn't often
Ia Yankee hears those yells.
Skillfully Woos Audience.
Gov. Stevenson displayed the
touch of a master as he deity
fiattered the Southland for its
accomplishments of the past and
its aspirations.
Senator Robertson Of Virginia
occupied a prominent position on
the stage, but there was no sign
of Senator Byrd.
Gov. Battle told the audience
at the outset Of the sudden death
today of l.. Preston Collins, the
lieutenant governor, and said he
felt sure he would have wanted
"us to carry on"
Gov. Stevenson prefaced his
speech with an expression of his
sympathy.
But with echoes of the 194a
lDixiecrat revolt still rumbling
through South Carolina, Louisiana
and Texas. the Governor dug up
the hardships of Republican re-
construction days, following the
Civil War to discourage his South
ern listeners from embracing the
G. o. p. ticket.
He acclaimed the Constitution
of the Confederacy, and pointed
out that three-fourths of the
States have adopted one of its
provisions-the right to veto part
of an appropriation bill without
killing the whole bill.
And he closed by declaring that
America needs the spirit of Robert
E. Lee to meet today's perils.
The Governor ascribed many of
the differences between Southern
whites and Negroes to the struggle
of poor against poor" in the years
before the South began to prosper.
With the increase in job oppor-
tunity, he said, racial tensions
have diminished"
Platform Is Recalled.
"In the broad field of minority
rights" he said, "the Democratic
Party has stated its position in its
platform; a position to which ]
adhere. should justly earn your
contempt if I talked one way in
the South and another way else
where. :. I shall not go any
where with beguiling serpent
words"

ment. Do We need outsiders to participate in that, to help us with our agricultural policies, on ques- tions of education, on the far reaching question of monopolies and antitrust legislation, the question of tariffs, the extension of the interstate commerce clause. the extension of the so-called wei fare clause, and the extension of taxation" and so on. As if Alas kans weren't being affected every day by these very policies.
 It appears that MT. Stennis is unaware of the fact that we are being taxed, that we do engage in agriculture, educate our children, and participate in interstate com merce. Perhaps he doesn't know that we are holding down the front line of one of our country's most vital defense outposts. If such ignorance were the rule in our Senate, we could understand the recent reluctance to grant statehood. We should know that the job ahead of us would be one of education.
 Since such ignorance is not general in the Senate, we can only wait, continuing to be taxed without representation - an amount that is recognized as pro- portionately larger than that O. our represented mainland broth CTS in view of the 22-60 percent differential in living costs that are not considered.

"A Basement Before '53" Is Sf. Miehuel's Committee Slogan

With a quotation from St. Paul q TheSSalonians i) "Brethr, n even as you have learned from Us how you ought to walk and to please God-,as indeed you are walking-we beSeech and cxholt you in the Lord Jesus to make even greater progress" Father James Snead initiated in his Sun day sermon the drive for funds 10 build basement for St. Michael's Church.
 In the sermon Father Snead pointed out the great need for a basement because of the rapid cx- pansion of the parish in the past few years. A new basement would provide room for Sunday School classes, choir practice, church dinners and socialS as well as make for greater personal con!- fort for practitioners during Sun day and daily services.
 Farmers of the parish were asked to set aside funds from the sale of one or more acres of pro- duce for the basement fund.
 Office workers and business men of the parish were asked 10 pledge individual sums to the fund.
 Following the Mass a number of farmers replied to the Gods Acre Plan. and two thousand dol lars in pledges were accepted from parishioners to start the campaign.
 A committee of men will soon canvas all members of the par ish to solicit pledges.

Rockhounds Club may develop
 Twenty-four adult students were awarded certificates show ing satisfactory completion of the mining and prospecting short course which has been held at Grange Hall for the past fev weeks at the final meeting last Friday night.
 Even though the course of study is over, the class may con- tinue it's interest in geology and minerology through a club, which has been enthusiastically discus sed during class meetings. Rock hounds Club has been suggested as name for the new organiza- ton. and it is believed that the graduating class would merely be nucleus for a larger pOten- tian group. About 90 persons at tended similar course given by Mir. Erickson in Palmer two years ago. and there are many former geology students in this area who might also swell the membership of such a club Lack of a meeting place vas originally the main drawback to the clubs organiza- ton. but Walter Deming gener- ously offered to put up build ing on his property on the far side of Knik River for that purpose.
 Said Instructor Eugene Brick son, There is a lot of interest m geology. minerology, prospecting and lapidary work in the Palmer area, and such a club would have 8 good chance Of 9u...s ,, saccess.
 Eugene erickson, instructor in Mining Extension from the Uni Versitv of Alaska. was in charge of the course which included 20 two-hour periods. About half of the lectures were on basic geo. lOgV as it affects ore deposits, topography, and other factors re- lating to prospecting. Prospecting and mining methods were discus sed as we'll as Territorial facilities aiding in prospecting such as the assay offices maintained at Fair banks. Nome, Anchorage, Juneau, and Ketchikan.
 The other half of the class time was devoted to minerology, the

This week as most Alaskans sweat feverishly over their 1851 income tax return the full irony of the recent Senate brush-off oi the Territory's bid for statehood blossoms forth in grim recogni- ton of a factor inherent in this continued denial.
 Taxation without representa- ton IS an issue that gnaws into the very vitals of a people whose history stems largely from active protests against this unjust prin- ciple.
 Alaskan's loyalty to the United States and their special recogni- tioR of the emergency necessitat- ing the huge increase in the tax load they must bear this year and seemingly ad infinitum-pre- cludes their blowing off steam in the fashion of their revolutionary forebears. All the more galling, therefore, are remarks like those of Senator Stennis of Mississippi, who said during the statehood debates:
 When we unoerrake pro- gram Statehood for Alaska) of allowing disconnected areas in other parts of the world to help us pass upon our own military pol icy or upon the far-reaching ques- ton of taxation, we are changing the very form of our government.
