Long Beach Residents
 EVacuate Homes but Tidal Wave Fails to MaterialiZe

LONG BEACH, Wash, (P) - Schools, stores and polling places closed when communities along the Long Beach Peninsula and hundreds of residents evacuated to high ground after radio reports Tuesday that tidal wave was bear ing down on the Washington coast.
 The evacuation, described as entirely orderly though rapid" was ordered following radio news service and Coast Guard reports that 40-foot wave was travelling at 700 miles an hour from a Pa cific earthquake earlier in the day.
 The evacuees returned to their homes about an hour later after the Coast Guard advised the tidal wave would expend itself in the Pacific.

Secret Service Takes Over Protection of President Elect Eisenhower

NEW YORK, (P)-U.S. Secret Service agents took over protec- ton of Dwight D. Eisenhower early today shortly after his cleo ton as President was assured.
 A group of agents had been standing by at the generals cam paign headquarters in the Com modore Hotel while the election returns were being tabulated around the country.
 Once the outcome became ap- parent, the agents moved into the corridor to guard Eisenhower's third floor suite.
 When the general left the hotel for his Columbia University resi- dence, the agents accompanied him and his wife.
 Under the law, the Secret Ser vice is assigned to protect the President and his immediate fam fly at all times. The protection also extends to the President elect.
 Secret Service agents also had been standing by in Springfield, H., to take over protection Of Democratic nominee Adlai E. Ste venson if he had been elected.

Gruening's Term
 Governor of Alaska Expires On April 9

WASHINGTON, (P) = General Dwight D. Eisenhower's election as president unquestionably has hastened the end of Ernest Gruen- ing's tenure as governor of Alaska.
 Robert Reeve, unsuccessful Re- publican nominee for Alaskan Delegate to Congress, has quoted Eisenhower as saying he would name an Alaskan to the governor ship if elected. The general never denied it.
 There's nc clue here to just who Gruening's successor would be. Responsible Republican sources in Washington say they have not heard the question discussed. Con- ceivably it could be tied up in intra- party politics - Alaska sent a pro-Taft delegation to the COP national convention in Chicago.
 In any event, Gruening's de- parture appears imminent. He has been territorial governor for 13 years.
 First named to the job Dec. 6, 1889, he has been reappointed twice for four year terms. The last appointment was confirmed by the Senate April 8, 1949. His present term therefore would ex- pire next April g regardless of who was elected.
 Only if Gruening extends Eli senhower his resignation as a matter of courtesy could he be re- moved earlier. There is no pro- vision for removal except for cause.
 Gruening has been something of thorn in the side of not only Republicans but also many Demo crats since his first appointment.
 Republicans have been parti- cularly upset by the Gruening- proposed tax increases put into effect by the Alaska legislature.
 They also have protested what they called "high-handed" actions in his official conduct.

Eisenhower Wins Presidency In Landslide of Votes
By JACK BELL Associated Press Staff Writer


 Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower smashed all voting records today as he won the presidency in spraWling landslide that left con- trol of Congress teetering in the balance between Republicans and Democrats.
 Americans who liked Ike gave the 62 : year old war hero the greatest vote ever poured out for a presidential candidate as he foreclosed 20-year Democratic mortgage on the White House and sent Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson of Illinois down to crushing defeat.
 With about 29,0OO precincts yet to be tabulated, Eisenhower al ready had rolled up 27,976, 106 votes - we'll over the previous record of 27,751,597 set by Frank lin D. Roosevelt in 1886 and far out -distancing Wendell L. Will kie's Republican highwater mark of 22,3O5,1e8 in 1948.
 But despite the Eisenhower sweep through the length and breadth of the land-including deep ballot wedge into the mo- longer solid south-the two major parties fought down to the final count from yesterdays election for what could only be hairline control of the House and Senate. Senate and House Fights Close
 The fight was so close that the Senate might wind up Republican and the House Democratic, or vice versa. Or both houses could go to the Republicans or to the Democrats. Absentee ballots, or an independent vote, might settle the issue in either house.
 A minimum of 48 seats, plus a tie-breaking vice presidential vote is needed for Senate control. In the House, 218 votes are needed. Both parties were close but neither had the prize.

Ike's Election
 Means End Labor Union Influence

WASHINGTON, (P)-Organized labor's long era of especial in fluence in government, such as it enjoyed under the Democratic 'sNew Deal" and ''Fair Deal, y appears over. The union bosses took terrific licking in Tues days elections.
 All the union leaders, with one or two exceptions, supported the Democratic cause and urged the nations workers to do likewise.
 But it seems apparent from the record vote and what happened in the big industrial areas that the workers largely ignored the urging of their leaders.
 The victory of Gen. Dwight D.. Eisenhower demonstrated that labor unions lack the power, to far greater degree than was often claimed, to deliver worker votes in key elections.
 Most of the union leaders de- clined any comment when the proportion of Eisenhower's vic tory became known.
 But one, Jack Kroll, director of the CLOS Political Action Com mittee, said: Gen. Eisenhower has been selected to be President of all the American people. He is entitled to their support in carry ing out the duties and obligations of that high office
 These are a few of the things the election results will probably mean for union labor:
 l. The unions very likely won't have the same degree of sym pathy at the White House under Eisenhower that they had under Presidents Roosevelt and Truman. Eisenhower has pledged to be fair to labor and every other element of the population. But this sounds like a far different approach than the frank partisanship in behalf of labor which the unions enjoyed under Roosevelt and Truman.
 2. There won't be any repeal of the Taft-Hartley labor law. Ei- senhower has promised to make neeed changes in the law, without being specific.
