blanket and he hers. Then, he was

Classification stamps-Top Sc

documents of World War II fol
which the reason for actual mil
itary security long since has ex-
pired. The subject matter of
some of these has become in

international policies established

Army regulations in addition to
classifying normal subjects such

such matters as negotiations fol-
alliances and the like"
Therefore. Gen. Eisenhower a:

told Iranians in fearful tones to-
night they must expect worse
hardships and disappointments be-
fore their. nation becomes free OF
foreign domination"
Occasionally sobbing, the all
ing Premier said in a radio
broadcast from his home:
Iran now stands at the cross
roads. One takes us to hell, the
other to heaven.
IF we forget about our ma
tlonal prestige and agree tC
any sort of conditions which in.
ternational banks impose on us
this is the road which takes us
to hell. I don't believe this is the
way of our beloved King, your
selves, the Senate and Mails
chamber of deputies).
This apparently referred to Mr.
Mossadegh's recent conferences
with World Bank representatives
to try to solve Trans oil problem
The Premier blamed the al
legged failure of the United States
Britain and Russia to pay COM
pensation for World War II oc-

Kentucky Republicans
Give Taft 19 Of 70
Convention Votes
BY the Assoeioted Press

LOUISVILLE. KY, April Ia
Kentucky Republicans today gave
10 of their 20 national convention
votes to a neighbor who wants to
be President-Senator Taft Of
Ohio.
One member of the Kentucky
delegation which goes to Chicago
July 7 will be pledged to Gen.
Eisenhower.
He is Representative Morton Of
Louisville, in the Third Congress
sional District. Party leaders in
the district decided early this year
to divide their two delegates be-
tween Senator Taft and Gen. Eli
ISenhower.
The Taft-for- r-President forces
completed their virtual sweep of
the Kentucky delegation at the
party's State convention today.
The convention elected four dele
gates-at-large, all instructed fcr
Senator Taft.
Earlier, Is Taft-pledged dele
gates were named in eight con-
gressional district conventions.
The Taft lieutenants, who
controlled only half of the delega-
ton which went to the 1948 con-
vention in Philadelphia, began
campaigning months ago. Their
great strength became apparent In
the county conventions last week.
Today, as the campaign wound
up in the State convention, the
supporters of Gen. Eisenhower
didn't even offer formally a slate
of candidates for delegates at
large.

HONESDALE, Pa. April 12.-Is
it really fun to live to be 100 in
this jittery modern world?
Absolutely, says William F.
Pearce. retired railroader, who
made. the grade today.
Looking backward, he sums up:
Give lived an active life and I
hope a useful one. 1t has been
good all the way, and I wouldn't
have missed it for anything. Times
are far from easy these days and
maybe there aren't many people
you can honestly call happy. But
it's all worth while, this experience
of living"
Puts Hopes in leadership.
Looking ahead: Were in for a
right interesting piece of history,
and whether you're 81 or 100, how
can you help being excited? I'm
not saying there isn't enough to
worry about, but if we get the
right sort of leadership, believe
this country and the world, too,
will manage to pull through"
What Mr.. Pearce is looking for
ward to especially is the presiden-
tial election next fall.
That's because he will then cast
his goth presidential ballot.
Mr.. Pearce has voted-Repubh-
can-in every presidential race
since the election of Rutherford
B. Hayes IN 1876.
"I've never been active in poll
tics" he said, but I've tried to
be good citizen and I've voted
in every election"
Now Likes Eisenhower.
Favorite among all the men he
ever voted for is Theodore Roose-
velt, whom he met before the turn
of the century.
Teddy Roosevelt was one of
the greatest men this country
produced in any era. He was
strong, full of courage, the kind
of leader who just naturally in
spired confidence. We need more
men like him today"
What of 1852? Mr.. Pearce
plumps for Gen. Eisenhower.

to fuss about my food. I can
eat whatever is put before me.
I'm still active, take walks, do my
