were executed last year-20 more
than in 1858.
Although the 1854 total was
much higher than the previous
year. the report continued to re-
fleet a much smaller use Of the
death penalty than was the case

Prison Director James v. Ben

last five years, there were fewer
executions than in any year be-

ing these recent five years an
average of SO persons per year
were executed, whereas during

per year averaged AT"
Ten of those put to death in
1854 were teen-agers. all Negroes.

The chairmen Of the Republic
can and Democratic National
Committees Joined today In urg-
ing Congress to enact a more
realistic l"w to govern campaign
expenditures.
But they disagreed over how
far it Is practical for Congress
to go in making candidates re-
sponsible for expenditures In
their behalf. They also over
came the spirit Of bipartisanship
occasionally to refer to the cam
paign activities of the opposition.
The appearance of the two ma
tional chairman marked the
opening of extended hearings by
a Senate Elections subcommit-
tee on bills to raise the author
ICED ceilings oh campaign ex-
penditureS and to bring about
more complete reporting Of them.
Republican Chairman Leonard
w. Hall said q new law is needed
and he thinks the subcommittee
is on the right track. But he ex-
pressed fear that one pending
bill might lead to more violations
Of its spirit than have occurred
under existing law If it attempts
to cover thousands Of precinct
committees and make congress
sional candidates responsible for
what these committees spend.
Butler Endorses Plan
Democratic Chairman Paul M.
Butler said he thinks the pro-
posal to require a candidate to
approve all Embarrassing organ
izations set up in his behalf out
side the National Committee is
meritorious.
Both chairmen agreed the
present limit of So million on the
amount any National Committee
may spend in one campaign year
is unrealistic in view of the pres
ent-day cost Of campaigning, in
GLIDING television and radio time.
Mr.. Butler said the ceiling
should be raised at least to Sc
million. The bill sponsored by
subcommittee Chairman Hen
nings, Democrat, of Missouri
would raise the ceiling to $12
million at this time, based on a
unit outlay of 20 cents for each
vote cast in the last election.

Star Stan Correspondent

CHARLESTON, s. c., April IL.
President Eisenhower said to-
day there must be a "magnifl-
cent growth in understanding"
among all peoples If world peace
Is to be achieved.
He made this assertion in q
brief address to the cadet corps
Of The Citadel, South Carolina
military college, aiming his re-
marks especially at the 95 per
cent Of the graduating classes
planning to enter the Nations
armed services.
Urging them to be among the
principal APOSTLES of peace" the
President urged them to try to
understand other people, the
heart of America, and translate
that understanding for others
around the world.
The scope of understanding
needed by men entering the
armed forces today is much
greater than when he was grad
uating from West Point 40 years
ago, Mr.. Eisenhower added.
Must Study Humanity
For a man to do his duty in
the military services today he
went on, he unjust study human
ity-what makes humans tick. !"
The job of trying to help other
peoples to an understanding Of
America is not exclusive to the
soldier, the President said. but
perhaps it comes home more to
the man taking an oath to fight
for his country.
Mr.. Eisenhower spoke on the
parade ground of The Citadel
after riding around it in a jeep
to review the colorfully uni
formed cadet corps and receiving
an honorary degree of doctor Of
laws from his old friend, retired
Gen. Mark w. Clark, now presi-
dent Of The Citadel.
Cites His Leadership
The citation accompanying
award of the degree declared
that Mr.. Eisenhower is leading
the Nation through the "perilous
years of the cold war" with
humanity. valor and wisdom.
The President said it was an
especially great honor to receive
this award from the hands of
zone of my oldest friends in the
military services"
In the audience was James F.
Byrnes, former Governor of
South Carolina. Mr.. Byrnes, a
Democrat, supported Mr.. Eisen-
hover for the presidency in 1852.
It was Mr.. Eisenhower's first
visit to South Carolina since 1852
and he and Mr.. Byrnes greeted
each other heartily.

'sSnOw Bird0 Parachuted Men And Equipment To Test Building Snow
 Airfield Under Battle Conditions
By ELTON FAY

ELMENDORF AIR BASE, R- The Air Force may not have enough airfields or even lose con- trol of some if Russia makes war.
 With a forward look to that possibility, the Air Force and Army propose to find whether 1t is possible to build under battle conditions a temporary air strip using as the sole material Alas ka's most plentiful and readily available resource-snow.
 As part of the current train ing maneuver, Exercise Snow Bird" the two services plan to make test of building a snow compacted" runway with para chuted. construction troops and equipment late this month or early in February.
 The site picked for the expert ment is near Talkeetna, 66 miles north of Anchorage.
 Alaskan Command officers say this will be the first time either Americans or Canadians have at tempted to build a snow com pacted runway under the tactical conditions of war.
 To Simulate Battle Conditions
 The situation will be as close to battle conditions as possible, with paratroopers of the 11th Airborne Division streaming down with weapons to protect the workers and tools to start the job. From other C-119 Fairchild planes will be dropped, attached to giant size parachutes, the lighter models of airfield making equipment. For air cover against hypothetical en- emy planes, the command has called upon the Alaska Air Ma tional Guard to send jet fighter bombers to the area
 With manpower, the first troop CTS landed are to level out a run way large enough to land a CAT transport plane carrying more. equipment. Following cargo planes, both landing and air dropping equipment, will bring in runway-making machinery.
 Included is a device, similar to farm machinery, which chews up snow, grass and brush and spews 1t out as a conglomerate.

drawn up to show how it could be repaid.
 Opponents argued the action was too speedy. They said the problem should be explored thor oughly before a decision is reach ed as to whether such a loan should be sought.
 Meantime, in the House, repre- sentatives found they had mis- figured when they thought they had saved $2O,OOO in costs of the session. Some large printing items were found to have been omitted and the measure was called back for further action.
 It was a blow to the members. The bill is one which provides money to pay their salaries and per diem allowances while in Juneau. They've had to dig down in their own pockets to date and they wanted prompt action on the measure.

Mobile Heaters To Bond Snow

Mobile heaters developing two million BTU's of heat will roll over the first layer of conglOm- crate, melting the snow and blending 1t with grass and brush to leave it for freezing into a foundation layer. A second pro- cess of working the raw material will supply top layer, bonded by freezing to the foundation. Total thickness of the snow run way will be about two feet.
 Specifications of the Air Force call for a final runway 5000 feet long and 15O feet wide. Upon such a temporary strip, the Air Force hopes to land jet fighters, fighter-bombers and supply and troop-carrying planes, including the big C-124 Douglas transport planes.
 The Air Force now has built up broad experience in parachuting equipment from supply planes, dropping tractors, jeeps, artillery and other equipment.
 In past airborne operations in Alaska losses of equipment smashed in drops has ranged as high as 38 per cent. In maneuvers last year, only two per cent of equipment was lost in drops.
