(which was quelled by a two-hour
tear gas barrage.
Warden Jerome E. Munie sta
toned armed guards and State
police at strategic points around
the prison and ordered them to
shoot to kill if any one makes a
move"
But he abandoned plans to
storm the cell block when convicts
threatened to hurl the seven
hostages from a 5O-foot-
balcony fronting the top tier of
cells. The guards were marched
to the balcony when the rioting
began late yesterday.
Call for Stevenson.
Some inmates were quoted by
officers as calling out, I'VE want
Ito see the Governor" Other
shouts of, 1--WE want to see the
big boss" were reported.
When told that Mr.. Stevenson
was on the East Coast campaign
ing, some inmates were quoted
as saying:
He few there and he can fly
back"
The latest violence at the
Southern Illinois prison along the
Mississippi River set the city of
Chester abuzz with rumors of a
mass break. The prison has 1850
inmates.
With guns ringing the walls
and at vantage points atop prison
buildings, the insurgent inmates
would have to risk a blood bath
in oreak for freedom. If they
moved out of the east cell house,
they still would be only in the
prison yard.
Water Cut Off.
Prison officials speculated
whether the rebellion was the
start Of a plot for a general break
out or whether it was spontaneous.
The inmates blacked out their
! 1,000-cell house. The prison cut
off all water. A silence-strangely
contrasting to the raucouS riot five
weeks ago-settled over the east
house most of the night. Super
intendent of State Prisons Frank
Trapp came from the capital at
Springfield.
The rebellion started as the east
cell house inmates returned from
supper. One guard with the keys
was seized and six other officers
were held from escaping.
One Hostage Released.
En- eighth officer, Leo H. Gosnel
of Herrin, was permitted to leave
|afterAe tainted because of a heart
condition.
Before midnight, inmates yelled,
IF you want to feed the officers,
we'll see that they get the food"
The warden gave this version
of the outbreak:
II think they planned a gen.
Ieral delivery. They planned to
grab the guards and the keys and
Igo over the wall. We moved too
fast for them.
1T confused them, so they
stalled until daylight. The rea-
son I think it was a general deliv-
cry plot was that they took all
the money the officers had. We
were expecting some of them to
dress in officers uniforms and try
coming out"

I must believe something was
wrong somewhere. However, in
his speech before the Nationwide
audience. the Senator deleted
this sentence.
The speech made an immediate
splash of controversy in the fast
climaxing presidential campaign.
Democratic National Committee
Chairman Stephen A. Mitchell said
Gen. Eisenhower, the Republican
candidate for President. must as
sumo full responsibility" for the
Mccarthy speech. Mr.. Mitchell
quoted a New York Times editorial
in charging that the speech plays
right into the hands of Moscow. "
Senator Carlson, one of Gen.
Eisenhower's top advisers, said in
Washington he didn't think any
body in the Eisenhower camp had
seen Senator McCarthy's speech
before it was delivered.
so far as I know nobody ever
saw it" Senator Carlson said in
reply to q question over Report
er's Roundup" a mutual radio
program.
And he answered another ques-
ton:
II didn't hear it said that any
body wanted to see it,"
He made this remark when a
questioner said he had heard re-
ports that some of the Eisenhower
aides had been concerned about
the speech.
Direct Reply Held Unlikely.
A Washington Star reporter
travelling with Gov. Stevenson re-
ports today that it is doubtful
if the Democratic candidate will
reply directly to the Mccarthy
charges. Gov. Stevenson said on
his arrival in New York last night
that ne did not know when, or if,
he would have any comment on
the widely heralded speech. Some
of his advisers spoke up promptly,
however.
One of Senator McCarthy's
charges was that Gov. Stevenson
is surrounded by left-wing ad-
viSers. The Senator cited former
leadership of the Americans for
Democratic Action as evidence of
leftish attitudes by two Steven
son advisers-Wilson Wyatt, the
Governors personal campaign
manager. and Arthur Schlesinger,
jr., a researcher and speech
writer.
Replying in a statement today,
ADA described itself as ian Or
ganization Of loyal, progressive
Americans dedicated to the battle
against Communism and the pres
|ervation of liberties at home"

high and wild" attack on Candi-
date Stevenson was an evidence

the general keeps changing his
stand.
II am the same man I was when
I came home to begin this cru
sade." Gen. Eisenhower told a
crowd at Borough Hall in Queens
"I have the same beliefs that ]
had when I started. I have not
been DETECTED from them"
He again said he planned to
go to Korea if elected.
Speaks at Mineola.
At Mineola, Gen. Eisenhower
emphasized what he considered to
be the answering nature of his
campaign. Right from the start
he said, he had been trying to
tell the people about "the mess
in Washington. A crowd of 5000
listened.
AS Gen. Eisenhower returned to
New York he carried with him
good reports on his chances in
Pennsylvania. which he toured
yesterday.
Senator Martin of Pennsylvania
predicted on the Eisenhower train
last night that Gen. Eisenhower
will carry the keystone State by
100000 votes. Gov. Dewey carried
it four years ago by $4,000.
Before a capacity crowd in Hunt
Armory at Pittsburgh last night
Gen. Eisenhower served notice
that all of the election-eve "parti-
san bowling" of the Democrats will
not deter him from going to Korea
in search of a solution to that
struggle if he wins the election.
Might Go Immediately.
Gen. Eisenhower has not dis
cussed with his close advisers the
question of how soon he would
make the trip. When he first
made the announcement in De-
troit last week, it was assumed
he had in mind going after he
becomes President in January
assuming he wins next Tuesday
