Eisenhower Tells AFL
Democrats Blocked
Revision of TIL Act

LOS ANGELES, up President
Eisenhower told the American
Federation of Labor convention
today organized labor's views
will receive Sympathetic consid-
Grafton" from his administration
The President, who received a
warm reception from delegates,
said he knew there are differ
ences between his views and or
ganized labor's but the right to
disagree was an American tradi-
ton.
Despite these differences, Eli
senhower said, "the views of this
convention will be studied and
sympathetically considered" just
as are the views of all segments
of the American economy.
Eisenhower said he had noted
criticism in one newspaper that
he had not redeemed his pledge
to remove union-busting provi-
sion from the Taft-Hartley law.
If he were making a political
speech, the President said, he
would remind audience that leg
islation that would have removed
that provision from the law was
killed in the Senate at the last
session of Congress by ga solid
Democratic vote"

Russia Manipulates Metal
Markets To Throw Normal
Supply Pattern Out Kilter

SAN FRANCISCO, R - The
American Mining Congress winds
up today with a discussion of
taxes and technical forms before
the 5000 delegates.
George o. Argall Jr., editor of
The Mining World, told the con-
vention yesterday that Soviet
Russia is increasing it's mineral
production in an effort to "dis-
rupt and confuse" the world mar
ket.
Argall declared the free world
mineral stockpiling is based on
capacity, while Russia's increase
is designed to throw the recent
normal mineral supply pattern
out of killer.
1t was more than a coinci-
dence," he said, that RusSia's
zinc was sold in Great Britain at
a discount shortly after President
Eisenhower announced a stepped
up program for stockpiling lead
and zinc.
Russia doesn't have to operate
on a strict profit or loss basis"
he said, land so it can undersell
any mining company in the
world"
Simon D. Strauss, vice presi-
dent of the American Smelling
and Refining Co. declared the in
dustry must create increased con-
sumner demand in preparation for
the end of government stockpiling
of strategic materials, which he
said is bound to come.

and lighted. The fire fighting
apparatus was supposed to put

Recently, Say Japanese Scientists

TOKYO, (R-The newspaper
Asahi said Thursday that Japan

Gently exploded an H-bomb on an
island 500 miles northwest of
Nome, Alaska.
The paper quoted japanese re-
searchers at the Tokyo Meteoro-

the explosion took place in late
August or early September on
Wrangel Island. The island lies
within the Arctic Circle due west
of PIT. Barrow, Alaska.
Soviet Russia announced last

The paper said the Japanese
meteorologists based their con-
clusion on these recent Japanese
weather phenomena:

similar to those recorded when
the Bikini H-bombs went off. The

Ike Make His First
Political Speech
OF This Campaign
(BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

President Eisenhower came out
slugging last night for the first
time in the young political cam
paign-and his partisan Califor-
MIA audience loved it.
An estimated $4,000 persons
gathered at the Hollywood Bowl
cheered wildly as Eisenhower
told them a Democratic victory in
the congressional elections Nov. 2
would lead to "endless political
maneuverings, stagnation and in
action"
The President was to wind up
a three-day speechmaking tour
with in informal talk to the ALL
meeting which only yesterday
adopted by voice vote a resolu-
aion Whirh held the Eisenhower
administration guilty of many
crimes of omission and commits
sion"
The resolution accused the
President of failure to redeem
various promises made during the
campaign two years ago, partl-
cularly the promise to remove the
union busting provisions of the
Taft Hartley Act"
In his speech to the Hollywood
Bowl rally, Eisenhower dropped
the reticence which up to then
had marked his campaign.
He declared Republican defeat
in the November elections - and
loss of control to the Democrats
in the 84th Congress-Would lead
to a field day" in Washington
politics.
Vice President Nixon last night
wound up the first phase of his
campaign tour with a speech in
Indianapolis, where he said the
administration is destroying the
Communist conspiracy in this
country. Nixon said the Eisen-
hover administration "has final
ly put the Reds on the run in
America"

Is Great But US. Navy
Is Capable To Handle 1t

CHICAGO, R - The Russian
submarine threat, says Secretary
of the Navy Charles Thomas is
the greatest in all naval history,
but the us. Navy is capable of
dealing with it.
Russia now has a modern fleet
of more than $50 submarines,
Thomas said last night, and is
capable of producing them at the
rate of about one each week.
But, he said, in contrast to
Word War II, 1--WE have the cap
ability of dealing with the sub
marine anywhere and everywhere
from the factory, to the base, to
the high SEAS"
Thomas spoke at dinner COM
memorating the capture of the
Nazi submarine S-505 by Ameri-
