Eisenhower Hit
On Interests
In Butler Talk

Democratic National Chair
man Paul M. Butler predicted
yesterday that the 1856 political
campaign would be fought on
the issue Of the people versus
special interests.
The Eisenhower administers
tion. Mr.. Butler contended, has
been In the interest Of big busi-
ness and against the general1
public. He pinned the RESPONSE
bility directly on President Ei-
senhower.
The Democratic chairman,s
comments were made on o tele-
vision program conducted BY
Representative Kenneth B. Keat-
ing, New York Republican.
Mr.. Butler, replying to q sug-
gestion by Mr.. Heating that Mr..
Eisenhower would be the Re-
publican nominee for President
next year, said:
"T'd like to say that maybe
the hope has fathered the
thought that President Eisen-
hover is going to be the NOM
tnee next year.
Il know the Republicans are
practically giving up If he isn't
the nominee. But ] would like
to say that In my opinion in
1856 1t will boil down to Just
one proposition. That is whether
or not our Federal Government
Is to serve certain selfish spe-
cial interests or whether it's tol
serve the general public interest.
The fact is the record Of this |
administration is In the interest
OF selfish interests, vested inter-
ests. big business.
I'VE are going to the people
on the isue Of returning our Fed
eral Government into the hands
OF the people and having a peo-
pies President" MIR. Butler said

Surely the time has been appropriate for the wise
and collective counsel Of respective Of good will

This week, the heads of sthe four nations gather
around conference table in Geneva, Switzerland
To the people both of the United States and of
Switzerland, this example of earnest discussion is
particularly timely. For our two countries, too,
harbor disturbing problem that deserves quick
and searching re-examination.
It is the problem created by the 5Oa tariff in.
crease that America has imposed on jeweled-lever
Swiss watches. An action that has already seriously
limited the supply of Swiss watches in America.
Any additional restriction (and several are
pending) would create a serious threat.
All of them, if enacted, might well bring
the traffic to a halt.
Who would be hurt? Both Of US!
AS Switzerland becomes less able to SELL here.

THERE'S THIS ABOUT TINE SWISS

THERE'S THIS ABOUT 1AE SWISS
In the past nine years, Switzerland has
bought about SIS billion worth Of Ameri-
can goods. In the same period, America was
buying about one billion dollars worth of
Swiss goods (mOst of this in watches).
America enjoyed favorable balance of al.
most ONE half billion dollars in the ex.
change. This profit went into the pockets of
American farmers, workers and business
men of all kinds. For Switzerland likes and
uses SO many things that America makes,
mines or grows.
Two leading Swiss brands Of cigarettes are
Maryland" and s'Texas." (Switzerland is
Maryland's best tobacco customer).
As Swiss watch movements are assembled,
cased and finished by American workmen
in American plants, 90 American autos are
assembled in plants in Switzerland.
Evening star., 1955-07-18

she becomes less and less able to BUY here. And
Switzerland has long been America very best cash
customer in Europe-buying, on the average, about
$1.50 worth of American goods for every $l.0O
that America spends for Swiss products (most Of
this in ,watches).
However, who gets the best-or the worst-of it,
is secondary. The important thing is that both
countries have gotten tremendous good out Of this
happy reciprocal trade. We've each supplied what
the other wanted. Each helped employment and
prosperity. Each enjoyed greater security.
No one would deliberately set out to spoil all this.
Yet the end result is much the same - no matter
how innocently it may have been set in motion.
Surely the time has never been more appropriate
for the wise and collective counsel Of our respec.
tive men of good will.
