from which Patrck Henry hurled his world

speech. Of far greater significance than
my fortunate privilege to visit this hallowed
shrine l gather a parallel contrast between
the conditions which those early Americans
who assembled in st. Johns church faced
and the crisis we find ourselves in today
l view their experiences as a treasure from
VIII "a ,.r 44ugnt gather some helpful gems,
During that time the colonists we're
threatened by a situation which appeared
to them, l am sure as paramount and dilem-
mic as the crisis our nation faces today
England rejcced while tyrancaly usurp-
ing the rights of the colonists; she had taxed
them without their representation in paria-
ment, She had S sent leaders across the
ocean to rule over the colonies. She had
sent American citizens to England for trial
She maintained an Army and Navy over the
colonies to enforce her demands, etc.
The decision which rested with the colon
lists was one upon which hinged their free
dom or slavery; peace or war. The Virgin
ians came together to make that decision
The great men who sat in the convention
were principally farmers and merchants.
Their loyalty to principle, unlike many of
o.. .@-...-, today was not to be question,
Their moral and Intellectual integrity made
debate inevitable. But this was sure; there
was no political "ephesian double talking"
in order to selfishly see that individual
views were accepted
Common interest of the whole was the
sincere directive for debate Then, there
was needed for debate, The cocnists were
few and unorganized, There was no facility
for the manufacture of weapons. Great
Britain had one Of the best trained and
equipped Armies and Navies
Two well identifable parties arose in the
convention; one composed Of those who
hoped for the return Of the "halcyon" DAYS
when the colonies and England enioved
prosperity. The other was in favor Of TAX
inc arms against the mother country be-
fore it was too late for them TO do anvthinC
when hPv would be shacilad with the
chains Of slavery.
The tide in the heated, yet friendly and
sircnra 'ohate which ensued was turned
completely by a speech made by Patrick
Henry. BECAUSE Of his remarkable vision
he influenced the making OF the decision
which has affected our dnetnv. He dis
banded the hone for neace when experience

Taft Speech Tonight Billed
As Reply to Eisenhower

Texas, Democrats were encouraged
Ito go into Republican precinct
meetings. He said voters were
told they might go into both the
Republican and Democratic pri-
maries. To admit that principle,
Senator Taft said. would destroy
the two-party system.
Senator Taft also denied again
he is an isolationist. He said the
differences in the Republican
Party are over methods rather
than principles. He said he read
the recent series of articles by
John Foster Dulles, a leading Re-
publican authority on foreign
policy and decided he and Mr..
Dulles are very close together,
except on a few points
The Ohio Senator said he favors
helping other free nations to de-
fend themselves. But he said he
would not spend as much on the
national security program as those
now in charge of it because he
does not believe the United States
can continue spending at the pres
ent rate over a long period of in
ternational tension.
He told one questioner that il
elected President, he would well
CONT the advice of Gen. Eisen-
hover on military matters, just
as Gen. Eisenhower has said he
. would consider the views of Gen
Macarthur. ...
Asked if he would keep Dean
Acheson as Secretary of State, the
Senator said history shows that
Presidents do not pick their cabi-
nets until elected. He said he
Thought he could make an excep-
ton in this case and say Mr.
Acheson would not be Secretary
of State.
Would Cut Appropriations.
! Asked what Fair Deal legisla-
ton he would repeal, Senator Taft
said the main legislation that
should be repealed is appropria-
tions. Since 1898, he said, the
Congresses have been conservative
in considering proposed New Deal

He said he wanted mo delegate
who is unduly Influenced toward
the Eisenhower camp" and would
"have nothing to do with my dele
gate that I have real reason to
believe has been elected by any
other means than the free express
sion of the American people"
TIL implication was strong that
ne hoped Senator Taft would feel
the same way. although he added:
II do admit that the same circum-
stances can look somewhat differ
ent to people, depending on where
they stand"
The Oregon delegation of 18 is
solid for Gen. Eisenhower. OF
the eight delegates and four al
ternates who attended yesterdays
meeting, none apparently wavered
in his stand. Afterward, Gov.
Douglas Mckay told reporters he
did not believe Senator Taft
would carry the State next No.
vember. if he wins the nomina-
ton. How about Gen. Eisen-
hover? There would be no ques-
ton about it," Gov. Mckay said.
After later meeting with dele
gates from Arizona, an Eisen-
hover spokesman said that the
lineup had remained unchanged
at 10 for Senator Taft, two for
the general and two uncommitted
One of the uncommitted delegates
told reporters. however. that he
had a strong leaning" toward
Gen. Eisenhower.
Today is listed as a day of from
the strenuous schedule Gen
Eisenhower has maintained since
his arrival here. It is rumored
that a fishing trip is planned on

ranch. Official sources, however
are keeping mum. possibly in the
hope of throwing the photogra-
piers off the scent.

Military victory in Korea, he
said, would demand a concentra-
ton of power "far beyond any
thing that has been done yet
Withdrawal would mean an ig-
nominous surrender of our posi-
ton in the world"
No Quick, Easy Answer.
IT just don't believe there is a
quick, easy answer to the Korean
situation" he said. "I say that
very seriously because, as all OF
you know, our own boy is soon to
go out there"
On the matter of Japan's trade
with Red China, Gen. Eisenhower
had this to say:
"How is Japan going to make
living if it does not trade with
the enemy? All of us say: Trade
with the enemy? Oh, that's ter.
rible.' But if Japan doesn't gel
some raw materials out of NORTH
China and Manchuria. that is 6
really hard problem to solve"
The general paid implicit trib.
ute to Gen. Macarthur on his ad-
ministration of postwar Japan.
II believe that the work thai
has been done in the past in ia
pan has been so good-and
mean since the war-in leading
them toward a respect for oul
form of government, that they
are the one Oriental people that
really have an inkling of what
freedom means-I want them tt
be our firm friends, that is almost
the basis of our dealing with that
region"
Asked If he would favor usins
the Chinese Nationalists in Ko-
rea. Gen. Eisenhower replied:
II should think that If the
Chinese Nationalists do their jot

Senator Taft of Ohio goes to
New York today for a major tele-
vision and radio address from 7
to 1880 tonight.
It is being billed as his answer
to the homecoming address of
Gen. Eisenhower. his chief op-
ponent for the Republican presi-
Dental nomination.
The speech, from a television
theater studio, will be seen here
on WNBW. WMAL-TV and
WTOP-TV. It will be heard over
Radio Station WRC. It will be
rebroadcast at 1890 pm. on
WMAI. WWDC and WASH-FM.
In a speech at the National
Press Club here yesterday the
Ohio Senator denied there is a
Taft Steamroller ready to run
over the Chicago convention. But
he confidently estimated he has
about half of the 1,206 delegates
One more than half-604-is
enough to win nomination.
Charges Fake Issue.
The steamroller charge is "just
IA fake ISSUE" he declared. He
added that he ran into steam
rollers in States where the Cover
Inors are for Eisenhower.

Governors, I would have been
nominated two months ago." Sen

hover supporters were in control
they used their power. he said,
Earlier the Senator defended
the conduct of the Republican
State convention in Texas, which
prompted the Eisenhower support
ers to meet separately and name
a rival delegation. He denied the
outcome of the contest over 3s
Texas votes in Chicago will be
decisive in the Taft-EiSenhowel
race.
He repeated his estimate that
as of today. he would lead Gen
Eisenhower by about 200 votes on
the first ballot.
The Senator charged that, in

said in appropriating too much
money.
The Senator also was asked to
comment on statement by w.
Averell Hartman. a Democratic
presidential aspirant, that the
Ohio Senator has dishonored him.
self by supporting Senator Nc
Carthy. Senator Taft replied that
he thinks Senator Mccarthy dra-
matized a situation that needed
dramatizing, but I don't say
everything he has done is right"
Il think McCarthyism, like iso-
lationlsm, is just a smear word"
Senator Taft added.
