This rivalry between the

ically close to Russia.

He declined to indicate the

Europe Alarmed.
An article in the latest issue
of the Air University Quarterly
Review, publication Of the Air
University at Maxwell Air. Force
Base. Ala, says the European
allies are alarmed over the pros
pect of being a battle-ground for
atomic war between the u. S.
and U. S. S. R.
The article was written by DIR.
Robert Strausz-Hupe, professor
Of political science at the Uni

rently lecturing at the Air War
College. The quarterly review
specifies that its articles should
not be construed as carrying Of

DR.. Strausz-Hupe says the
European is confused by the

about atomic weapons. Argu-

Hupe writes, but:
'"The new thermonuclear weap-

told. can be used tactically to
destroy whole armies in the field.
Then, he may ask, will IL Ger
man ground divisions contribute
to European defense if nuclear
weapons put the value of land
armies in doubt? Is there room
enough sin SO narrow a theater
of war as Western Europe for
dispensing large ground forces?
And If there were room enough,
could ground forces so dispersed

Nixon. Denies Charge
OF Give-Away Policy
Made by Stevenson
BY the Associafed Press

MlNNEAPOL1S, sept. 70 -
Vice President Nixon yesterday
denied Adlai Stevenson's charges
that the Republican administra-
ton is a "give-away govern
ment" and is responsible for IAN
alarming deterioration of our
world position" Mr.. Nixon
challenged the unsuccessful
Democratic candidate for Presi-
dent in 1852 to make known his
position on world issues.
The Vice President told q
news conference Mr.. Stevenson
has made no constructive sug-
gestions of his own on world
issues. such as Indo- China and
Korea. "The people are entitled
to know what Stevenson's ac-
tions would have been in these
cases." Mr.. Nixon said.
Mr.. Nixon, on an eight-State
speaking tour in behalf of Re
publican candidates for Con-
gress, attended services yester-
day. in the church of a former
college friend.
Speaks from Pulpit.
He spoke briefly from the pull
pit of the Rev. Ezra Ellis in the
Wesley Methodist Church and
was presented with a red leather
Bible. Mr.. Ellis was a fellow
student at Whittier College,
sWhittierss;Calif.
At his news conference, Mr..
Nixon referred to the recent
Maine election in which Edmund
S. Muskie was elected the first
Democratic Governor of the
State in 20 years and said the
voting there was not particu-
larry significant.
Mr.. Nixon added the COP does
not regard Maine as a trend
adding. but it showed the need
for greater reorganization OF
State Republican Parties around
the Nation"
The Vice President said. Re-
publicans have been working
harder than ever to unity them
selves in all the States he has
visited.
Addresses Rally.
Saturday night the Vice Presi-
dent addressed a cheering crowd
of $500 at a South Dakota
Young Republican League rally
at Huron.
Mr.. Nixon told the rally the
E isenhowers administration
stands squarely behind it's pledge
to achieve full parity in the mar
ket place for farmers.
He said the Eisenhower ad-
ministration has kicked the
Communists out of Government
not by the hundreds, but by the
thousands" and asked for sup
port of the administration so 1t
can continue it's work on great
issues. "left tragically undcne by
the Truman administration"

the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee.
He sSaid he did not see any
chance for reviving, as such, the
proposed edo plan under which
six Western European nations
would have pooled their armies
and West Germany would have
been rearmed.' 2{fst8'
Forget the Past.
"The real problem is to get the
French and German leaders to
see the imperative necessity OF
forgetting the past" Senator
Wiley said. "They must lay aside
the fears and hates that have
been part of their national exist
ence for centuries and learn to
collaborate to create a great
European unity in the West"
He said that he found among
European leaders with whom he
talked a feeling that the best
substitute for edo which can
be found lies in Germany's ad-
mission to the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization.
He expressed belief that If
some such arrangement can be
worked out, Germany will agree
to some limitation on her arms.
The chief factor in Frances re-
fusal to ratify EDO is generally
said to be a fear by many
Frenchmen that Germany might
again become militarily aggres-
sive.
Cool to Conference.
Senator Wiley said he saw
little value to the idea, advanced
by Britain, that a conference to
discuss the problem should be
held by the six EDO nations,
Britain, the United States and
Canada.
"A mere getting together of 9
or 10 nations to blow off steam
about their differences would
have no effect" he said. "It
is necessary first to have a basic
understanding among the leaders
OF the interested nations on
issues upon which they could
agree. =.
ut is primarily a job for
Europeans.
Every one SO far has been
talking in generalities. We can't
go on forever with general state
ments on unity. Some one has
to put a plan on paper. We need
to get a more concrete idea of
what Is needed"
Senator Wiley said 1t was his
impression that Premier Pierre
Mendes-France, who took no
position on the EDO issue, "feels
that the spirit of EDO still
lives" and he added:
His overall concept, be-
lieve. is that there is a definite
need for unification of the West.
But he feels there must be a
sufficient guarantee that the
overwhelming. power of Germany
will not become dominant"

Senate 5 FILA Probe
Gets Under Way in
Indianapolis Today
BY The Associated Pres.

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 90
The Senate Committee investi-
eating the financing of Federally
insured housing projects moves
here today amid assurances by
its chairman that he'll find out
who-if anyone-pulled strings
in Washington "if it takes all
year."
Senator Capehart of Indiana
said much of the testimony to
be heard by his Banking and
Currency Committee in its two
day stay would concern projects
built by the Warner-Kanter
partn er ship of Cincinnati
owners of the swank Essex House
here.
Senator Capehart said Marvin
Warner, president of the Essex
House Corp. would be one of the
witnesses called.
All Projects To Be Studied.
The Senator added that all
of Warner-Kanter's 13 projects
--totaling. he estimated, more
than $50 would be
studied. The Cincinnati partner
ship built two Canterbury Court
apartments in st. Louis; STRAIT
ford Manor and two Canterbury
Garden apartments in Cincin-
natl, and the Essex House and
six other housing developments
in Birmingham, Ala.
Senator Capehart said mem
bers of his committees staff had
been looking into these projects
since July 8.
In recent testimony before the
committee in Chicago, Federal
Housing Administrator Albert
M. Cole contended that a wind
fall" profit of $253,8O0 was
reaped on the Indianapolis Es-
sex House.
In this sense, a "windfall"
profit is one in which builders
asked and received Government
insured loans for projects which
totaled more than the cost of the
projects themselves.
Mr.. Warner subsequently de-
MED a "windfall' profit.
Differ Over Total Cost.
While both he and Mr.. Cole
agree that the insured loan for
the building was $3,474, 800, Mr..
Warner said the total cost was
$3,477, ,458 - not the $3,216,100
claimed by Mr.. Cole.
In a reference to published re-
ports that someone in Washing
ton in 1850 may have worked to
force local FILA officials to in
crease estimated building costs
on the Essex House, Senator
Capehart said yesterday: I'VE
intend to find out the truth if it
takes a year."
Senator Capehart said he
didn't know how many of the Is
Banking and Currency Commit
tee members would attend the
sessions here, but that all had
been asked.

In these States, Democratic
leaders said they have reason
able chance to pick up a net
gain of 36 House and four Senate
seats. Republicans. on : the
other hand, had claimed they
would boost their House mem
bership by 10 and gain three
Senate seats.
The Senate now has 48 Repub-
licans, 47 Democrats and one in

Gratis, one Independent and three

b. Opposing Views.
The Republicans insisted that
the issues in the battle for con-
troll of Congress revolve around
their slogan of peace, progress
and prosperity"
The Democrats seemed likely
to challenge that slogan, con-
tending that there is no peace-
only an absence of shooting war
that instead Of making social
progress the Eisenhower admin
istration is drifting backward,
and that prosperity is only sec
ond rate at best.
Throughout their comments,
the Democrats stressed what they
said was widespread dissatisfac-
tion with economic conditions:
what they called "disillusion-
ment" with the Eisenhower rec
ord; alleged farm discomfort and
what many of them labeled as
a mess" in foreign relations.

The proposal to make West
Germany a full-fiedged member
of the European defense system
raises the problem of how much
atomic weapons information the
United States would then give
her.
France is reported to want
definite controls set for re-crea-
ton of a German armed force
If West Germany should be
taken in as member of the
l4-nation North Atlantic Treaty
Organization.
The United States has adopted
q policy--and amended a law to
support the policy-providing
for the exchange of information
with allies on the effect OF
nuclear weapons. The Intention
is to inform allies only on the
blast, heat and radiation effects
OF various atomic weapons, with
out disclosing details of design.
But the mere detailing Of effect
canscarry significant hints about
the nature Of the weapons them
selves.
1916 Act Is Modified.
The proposal for this exchange
OF information originated with
the American military about
three years ago. at time when
NATO forces were just beginning
to be formed and well before
there was any concrete plan for
arming West Germany. It re-
ceived the support of the Atomic
Energy Commission. and In the
last session Of Congress the
stringent terms of the 1916
Atomic Energy Act were modi-
fed to permit an exchange OF
information Of nuclear weapons
effect.
The military, including Gen
Omar Bradley, former chairman
OF the Joint Chiefs of Staff, con-
tended thatsallies of the United
States in Europe could not make
tactical or strategic plans for de-
tense without having some in
dication of what to expect from
atomic attack by an enemy or
atomic weapon support of ground
forces by the United States.
This became especially i'm
portant with the subsequent ap-
pearance in the American arsenal
OF tactical-size atomic bombs
atomic artillery and guided mis-
'sileS with atomic warheads for
use on the battlefield.
Russia Pressing Hard.
A Soviet announcement last
week of another atomic weapon
test explosion points to the speed
with which Russia is racing
against the United States lead in
