Introduces Senator Nixon
As Vindicuted Man

Ladies and gentlemen, my
colleague in this political CAM
paign has been subject to q very
unfair and vicious attack. So
far as I am concerned, he has
not only vindicated himself, but
I feel that he has acted as a
man of courage and honor and
so far as I am concerned stands
higher than ever before.
am going to ask Senator
Nixon to speak a few words to
you this evening, but before he
comes to this podium, let me
read to you two messages. The
first thing is a tribute. This is
a telegram to me:
Dear General: I am trusting
that the absolute truth may
come out concerning this attack
on Richard and when it does I
am sure you will be guided right
IN your decision to place implicit
faith in his integrity and hon.
esty. Best wishes from one who
has known Richard longer than
any one else. His mother"
Now, as I waited on him at
the plane this evening I received
a telegram from the Republican
National Committee signed by
the chairman. 1t reads:
This is to advise you that as
of 9 o'clock this evening, 107 of
the 1873 members of the Repub-
hcan National Committee who
could be reached either by tele-
phone or telegraph have been
asked for their reaction to the
Senator's suggestion that the
committee decide if it wants
him to stay on the Republican
ticket as the vice presidential
candidate.
Il am proud to inform you
that the results are 1O7 to 0 in
support Of Senator Nixon.
THE comment accompanying
their unanimous response was
overwhelmingly enthusiastic.
Their kilograms reflected a deep
conviction that Richard M.
Nixon not only deserves the
support of every American but
is worthy of the highest public
trust. AS a member of the Re-
publican National Committee it
gave me great satisfaction to
join with my colleagues in this
stirring tribute to a truly great
American who walked unafraid
through the valley of despair
and emerged unscathed and un-
bowed. Let there be no doubt
about it. America has taken Dick
Nixon to its heart. Every Re.
publican is proud to have him
on the ticket. Signed. Arthur
E. Summerfield, Chairman, Re-
publican National Committee"
And now I give you Dick
Nixon.

WHEELING, w. Va, Sept.
25.-FolIoWing is the tert of
Gen. Eisenhower's address here
last night:
First Of all, ! hope that you
will accept my profound apol-
ogies for the changes made in
our schedule this evening. due
to the delay in the arrival of
the plane Of Senator Nixon.
We simply could not get here
at the hour we anticipated, SO
my gratitude to you for attend
ance and allowing me to give
you my message this evening is
emphasized by the fact that you
have been so patient as to sit
this long.
am indeed glad to be here
in this great industrial city.
/ am sure you are going to send
back to the Senate Of the United
States your experienced former
Senator, Chapman Revercomb,
and to your State, capital at
Charleston your candidate for
Governor, Rush Holt, a Repub-
lican ticket from top to bottom,
including your candidate for
Congress. former Congressman
Francis j. Love.
I want to talk to you tonight
about one of the things that
makes our America great.
I mean: The ability of Amer
leans as free men and women
to join together IN support of
enduring principles, no matter
what their differences of con-
viction as to how these princi-
Piles should be applied in prac-
tice.
This basic idea was in the
minds Of the men who wrote
our Constitution. It is this idea
which can make the Constitu-
tion live in every succeeding
generation Of Americans.
The founding fathers expect
ed leadership in Government to
bring together different points
Of view into q workable combi-
nation for the good of all.
I speak Of this because it lies
at the heart Of what I am work.
ing for in this campaign. II we
are to bring new vigor and new
ideas into our free Government,
we must draw upon the energy
and intelligence of all those who
are Joined with us. This draw
ing together in our cause of the
best Of the many lies at the
heart Of the forward movement
of the Republican Party. Mem
berbship In our party does not
necessarily mean mutual agree
ment or approval other than on
basic objectives and principles.
This fundamental idea is re-
pugnant to opposition spokes-
men. They profess amazement
that the Republican Party con-
tains people of so many diverse
views. OF course, at Chicago,
the Democrat Party attempted
Thought control" To their
CONSERVATION, they found that
Americans do not take kindly to
this sort of thing. In many
States-for example, Texas,
Florida. South Carolina, Vir-
ginia, Georgia and Louisiana
old-time Democrats are desert
ing by the thousands.

Truman 7 ak Beumed at Reds

Following is the tert of q
| speech by President Truman to
the people of Russia and Red
China today, beamed around the
1Oorld from the poDertul neW
floating transmitter, the Coast
Guard cutter Courier:
am speaking to you today from
a ship. 1t is a special kind of
ship, and it will perform a very
special mission.
This vessel will not be armed
with guns, or with any instruments
of destruction. But it will be a
valiant fighter in the cause of
freedom. It will carry precious
cargo--and that cargo is truth.
This ship is named the "Cour-
ier." 1t is well named, for it
will be carrying a message. 1t
will be carrying a message of hope
and friendship to all those who
are oppressed by tyranny: it will
be carrying a message of truth
and light to those who are con-
fused by the storm of falsehood
that the Communists have loosed
upon the world.
This vessel is q floating radio
transmitter which is to broadcast
programs for the Voice Of America.
It will be able to move from place
to place, beaming our campaign
Of truth to people behind the
iron curtain whom we have thus
far been unable to reach.
Significance Stressed.
The Courier" is q small ship
it is not as big as deStroyer-but
it is of tremendous significance.
It's significance lies in the fact
that it will carry on the fight for
freedom in the field where the
ultimate victory has to be won
that is in the minds of men.
AS the world stands today, free
peoples must have strong military
forces to protect themselves
against aggression. But the final
solution for the ills that plague
the world can never lie in armies
and navies and air forces. The
final solution cannot be reached
until all nations are willing to live
together in peace. The final vic
tory cannot be won until the
truth has made all people free.
There is terrific struggle going
on today to win the minds of
people throughout the world.
Attacks Kremlin Policy.
The rulers of the Kremlin are
trying to make the whole world
Knuckle under to the goddess. total
itarian creed of communism.
They are busy everywhere spread
ing propaganda to stir up fear and
hate and to set nation against
nation.
The free nations of the world
have not yielded to the onslaught
of Soviet propaganda. We have
undertaken to answer it with the
truth-for we know that the truth
is the best answer. To bring the
truth to peoples everywhere, we
are using magazines, newspapers,

Showdown on UNIT /
May Come Today in
Move 10 'Recommif
BY George Beveridae

The House prepared for series
Of showdown votes. on universal
military training today. as both
hackers and opponents maneu-
vered for key parliamentary posi-
tions in the heated fight.
There were strong indications
that opponents would seek an i'm
mediate test vote, in q rarely
used move to send the UNIT bill
back to committee for more study.
This probably would kill the meas
ure during this session.
Hope to Dodge Recommittal.
Proponents hope to dodge an
immediate recommittal vote, ex-
pecting that amendments would
win support for their side from
doubtful members They also argue
that they would pick up votes
through a Section-by-section ex-
PLANTATION Of the complicated
measure.
For the record Chairman Vim
son Of the Armed Services Com
mittee predicted the recommittal
maneuver will be headed off, and
that the bill will pass. And Rep
reSentative Short, Republican, of
Missouri, said the bill will be re-
committed with votes to spare"
Privately. however, both sides
are wary about predicting out
come of the battle.
Tell Truman of Fight.
House Speaker Rayburn and
other administration leaders called
on President Truman yesterday
and told him the bill faces "a very
tight fight" for approval this ses-
sion.
In any event, the key battle
appears to be in the House. The
Senate Armed Services Committee
has unanimously approved a SIM
liar bill. and members are opti-
mistic about. its chances in the
senate.
Actually, Congress already has
approved the principle of UNIT,
and the bill under consideration
relates mainly to legal. provisions
which could clear the way for
the program to start. But men,
bers on both sides have made
plain that they consider the
House fight to be a vote all over
again on the basic issue of UNIT.
AS set up. the program calls

SIX months Of training, after
which they would go into reserve

means to combat the propaganda
of slavery.
This ship is an important part
of that campaign. Our argu-
ments. no matter how good, are
not going to influence people who
never hear them. The purpose
of this ship is to help get our
message through.
There is one thing I want this
ship to Say-over and over again
to our friends throughout the
world, and especially to the people
OF the Soviet Union and those be-
hind the iron curtain:
The United States Of America
Is working night and day to bring
peace to the world. AS Presi-
dent Of the United States, I say
with all my heart that we yearn
Tor peace, and we want to work
with all nations to secure peace.
No Quarrel With Soviet.
| We have no quarrel with the
people of the Soviet Union or with
the people of any other country.
For almost two centuries the
people of the United States have
lived at peace with the peoples OF
Russia and China and the other
countries whose rulers are now
assailing US. Only a decade ago
when the peoples Of Russia and
China were suffering under two
OF the most savage invasions in
history. we came to their aid. We
helped them to save their coun-
tries.
I want to say to these people
today. as we said then: We are
are your friends. There are no
differences between us that can
not be settled if your rulers will
turn from their senseless policy
of hate and terror, and follow the
principles of peace.
Forced to Arm Ourselves.
Today, the aggressive policies of
your rulers are forcing us to arm
to defend ourselves. But we can
not find in our hearts any hate
against you. We know that you
are suffering under oppression and
persecution. We know that if you
were free to say what you really
believe. you would join with us
to Danish the fear of war, and
bring peace to the earth.
Your government, with its news
papers and radios. may try to
make you believe that the United
States is a hostile country, bent
on war. But that is not true. I
want you to know that our high
est aim is peace and friendship
and an end to the horrors of war.
Wherever you may be listening
to this broadcast. remember this:
The people of the United States
extend the hand of friendship to
you across the seas. The future
may look dark. but let us have
faith, together. that all peoples
will one day walk in the sunlight
or peace and justice.
