DENVER, Aug. 20.-President
Eisenhower resumed his Colo
RADIO vacation today after a full
day of official activity in New
York. highlighted by an informal
speech at the dedication of the
$35 million Simon Baruch houS-
ing project.
On his way back to Denver,
the presidential plane made one
stop-at Fort Wayne, Ind. to
take aboard Kevin Mccain,
president of Defiance College in
Ohio, and a longtime friend
and adviser of Gen. Eisenhower.
A few hours before the plane
arrived, DR.. McCann received a
call from the Secret Service.
Pack your bag and your fish,
ing tackle and be ready in four
hours. You're going fishing with
the President"
Registers for Election.
The President took time out
yesterday to register and apply
for an absentee ballot to vote in
New York City's mayoralty elec-
ton in November. After Gen.
Eisenhower signed the necessary
papers, a reporter asked: Mr..
President. will you tell us how
you're going to vote?"
How do you think?" he re-
piled.
In his New York speech, Gen.
Eisenhower paid high tribute to
Bernard M. Baruch. son of the
former South Carolina doctor
for whom the housing project is
named.
He said he first met Mr.. Ba-
ruch when as "a fairly stupid
and even awkward young ma
jor" he came to him for advice
on a military matter 25 years
ago. He said he had never for
gotten Mr.. Baruch's kindness
and had always found him ready
to give assistance whenever Il
was pursuing Investigations for
the good of the United States
in some subject that was impor-
tant to its security"
Turning to the housing devel-
opment, Gen. Eisenhower said
it represented the soul of a
Nation" And he defended his
administration against charges
that it has reduced appropria-
tions for public housing with
these words:
There are many vicissltudeS
in the pulling and hauling and
the arguments of free govern
ment. But there is certainly,
If any one knows the heart of
America-you can't go to them
and show them that great
bodies of citizens are living
in novels, unfit habitations and
not get help-help expressed
not only from their private
purses, as Mr.. Baruch has
done. but through Official
channels Of appropriations.
But let us never forget what
is government. Government
is people. And people are you.
We can't sit here and transfer
our responsibility to some
vague sort of entity that we
refer to as a Washington
government" Each of us has
a very definite part to play in
everything that is here, be-
cause that is the heart of
America. In it we expect to
see living, happy families,
families who, because of their

Power Policy Called
.Give-Away by ADA
And Other Groups

The Eisenhower administra-
tons newly enunciated power
policy was under fire today from
the CIO, Political Action Com
mittee and spokesmen for

ton and the National Rural

ton.
The policy, spelled out Tues
day with President EisenhoWer's
approval assigns to local inter-

power for the Nation. The In

a resolution saying the power
policy threatens within a short
time to wreck the entire public

Robert r. Nathan, chairman Of
the ADA'S Executive Committee,
said in a statement yesterday the
decision to rely primarily on 10
cal interests "is an ill-concealed
give-away of resources which be-
long to all the people,
The ADA describes itself as an
organization of liberals support
ing the policies of the late Pres
ident Franklin D. Roosevelt.
The statement said the new
Government approach to power
meant private interests will be in
a position to "get a Strangle-hold
on power development and dis
tribution and thus put the brake
on the continuing expansion OF
power for industries and farms. :"
Clyde T. Ellis, executive man.
ager of the National Rural Elec-
trio Cooperative, said in another
statement yesterday the new pol
icy would cost farmers several
million dollars year on their
wholesale power bills because in
most cases only power companies
would be financially able to build
electric projects and transmits
sion lines.
The Interior Department in its
announcement said it would builc
transmission facilities to load
centers within economically feas-
ible distances unless other pub

5000 Maryland Auto Owners
Receive Plates Marked DC
. Prefix on Plates
Hos No Connection
With District

Maryland has issued auto
license tags marked DC to nearly
5000 car owners, including some
living near the District OF
Columbia.
The DC has no connection
with the District Of Columbia.
The State switched this year
from all-number license plates
to use of two letters and four
numbers.
Motorists who buy their tags
in Montgomery County receive
plates with the prefix HA or lib,
the department said. In Prince
Georges, plates are marked with
nc through HF, plus the num-
berS.
However, car owners who or
der their plates by mail from the
department Office in Baltimore
are receiving tags marked DA
through DJ.
w. Dana Rudy, deputy COM
missioner of motor vehicles, said
the DC tags have been issued to
motorists in all sections of the
State. Mr.. Rudy said some DC
tags have been sent to Maryland
car owners living near the Dis
trict, but he said he could not
estimate how many.

Johnston S Objection
Blocks D. {. DELEGATE Bill

Senate action on the Case
Nicely bill for the election of a
non-voting District delegate in
the House was blocked yester-
day by an objection from Sena-
tor Johnston, Democrat, of
South Carolina.
One objection was sufficient
to hold up action, since the
measure was being considered
on the consent calendar.
Senator Johnston, a leading
opponent of Washington home
rule of any kind, was out of
the Senate chamber when the
delegate bill came up, but his
objection was registered by Sen
ator Gore, Democrat. of Tennes-
see.
Later, Senator Johnston said
he and several other Sena-
tors" wanted more time to study
the bill. He did not say how
much time would be needed.

Il think that the role OF the
United States Army in my coun-
try has changed considerably
during the last years." he said.
when they entered, it was as
an occupation Army. Now it is a
defense force that defends us at
the same time as the United
States
II think it is very important,
in view of this task, that there
are the best of relations between
the United States Army and our
people," he added. Peace is
promoted by this.
$50 I think they are doing a
wonderful work, because by this
very work, understanding be-
tween the GIs and the German
people has advanced to the
greatest degree"
Officially Criticized.
The Gen. Clay Fund is au-
thorized by the Department of
Defense to represent GYA, and
through it's activities thousands
of dollars are added to the
zone-wide support given by serv-
ice men and women, Mrs. Shouse
pointed out.
A flrst-hand report of the &C
tivities came from 1t. Col
Everett T. Reniker of Joplin. Mo-,
who has just returned from
Germany.
He said that the ultimate OBJ
jective is to turn the facilities
over to the German people to
operate on their own, independ-
ent of American funds. This is
already in progress.
Directed by the Armed Forces
but supervised by German peo-
pie, it is a local program that
talks to people at their own
level" he added.
Unlike Communist youth clubs
which attempt to prefabricate
thinking, the Armed Forces CEN
tiers encourage youth to think
for themselves and learn self
and group guidance, he said.
Mrs. Stephen j. Nicholas, ex-
ecutive director of the General
Federation of Women's Clubs,
reported this is the third year
of participation in the program
by her organization.

Women's Clubs Collect Tons
Of Dress Goods for Germany

Tons of sewing materials were
ready for shipment to Germany
at the Fort Myer Transportation
Office today as a "helping hand"
to youth from club women all
over the United States.
The gift of member clubs of
the General Federation of
Women's Clubs is made through
the General Clay Fund for Ger
man Youth Activities.
The fourth is a main voluntary
source of support for the Armed
Forces Assistance Program to
German Youth. Throughout the
American zone, 70 centers serve
some 100000 German boys and
girls each month. Still others
have been turned over to the
German people.
They offer activities such as
handicraft, sports, discussion
groups and community projects,
led by United States service men
and women, through which the
new generation of German boys
and girls learn the benefits and
responsibilities of democracy.
"A helping hand is better than
a handout" is the slogan of the
program. aimed toward building
peace through developing future
leaders. 1t serves boys and girls
from the age of 10 to the early
EOS.
Aided by GIs in Europe.
Besides Government aid funds.
the centers are supported by
servicemen in Europe as we'll as
by thousands of. American civil
ians.
This shipment to our armed
forces in Germany means more
than dress materials for the girls
sewing classes" said Mrs. Jouett
Shouse, chairman of the Gen.
Clay fund. ut represents the
part the women of America,
young and old, are taking in
