gines sputtering as it left an icy
runway, crashed into a residen-
tial area early today, killing at
least 27 persons and injuring 46
Others as it exploded and burned.
The big Peninsular Air Trans
port plane was headed for Chi
cago and Newark, N. j., with 66
seryicemen who had just re-

Thanksgiving.
( Also aboard the DC-4, which
had its home base at Miami

Hours after the crash, the

to complete Identification OF the
dead.
Plane Skids Into House
The plane first clipped tree
on a hillside south Of its Boeing
Field takeoff point, bounced OF
the ground and shattered as 1t

skidded into the back of a house
and set it af1re. but a young
mother and her five children In
side escaped unharmed.
Parts of it broke up in the
yard of Mrs. Donald Renard.

explosion. The next minute my

Bodies of the dead, dying and
injured were strewn about.
Flames fed by gasoline which
had spewed from full tanks
iroared into the air.
Some of the soldiers streamed
into Mrs. Renard's house as she
opened the door. Some we're
badly hurt: some groaning;
some crying. Several had burned
hands and burned clothing.

GETTYSBURG. Pa. Nov. Ia
President Eisenhower and Secre-
ltary of State Dulles we're re-
ported by a high White House
official to be agreed today to
keep slugging" in their fight
for an East-west understanding
despite the dismaying results Of
the Big -Four Foreign Ministers
meeting in Geneva.
They did not underestimate
the setback they suffered when
the Soviet Union ruthlessly tor
lpedoed the Geneva conference.
But neither were they pre-
pared, as Of now. to proclaim the
start Of another no-holds- barred
cold war.
These agreements on philos-
Iophy became apparent during
Mr.. Dulles consultations with
Mr.. Eisenhower on the Geneva
meeting.
Meet Again Today
Mr.. Dulles called on the Presi-
dent at his farm late yesterday
and met with him again at his
office in the Gettysburg post Of
flee today to discuss the Geneva
results and the speech which Mr..
Dulles viii deliver tonight.
Mr.. Dulles will give his de-
tailed appraisal of the Geneva
results during a Nationwide
television broadcast at 7::30. Re-
corded versions win be presented
on TV and radio stations later
this evening.
Mr.. Dulles clearly had q tick
lish public relations problem TO
handle with the American people.
Ever since the July meeting Of
the chiefs OF state Of the Big
Four powers. the administration
has been optimistic about the
outlook for East-West relations
The failure Of the foreign min
listers. meeting therefore has
caused greater disappointment
than II the administration had
taken more cautious approach
TO the outlook for ending the
cold war.
The Secretary Of State new
here almost directly from the
Geneva conference and went
into consultation with MI. Eisen-
hover IN g ground floor study
Of the Eisenhower farm last eve
ming.
Talk Hour-and-a-HaIf
For nearly an hour-and "a
hall, Mr.. Eisenhower, Mr.. Dulles
and undersecretary OF State
Herbert Hoover. jr., talked alone.
Mr.. Dulles orally supplemented
the daily dispatches which ne
had sent the President during
the Geneva meeting. Then Mr..
Dulles offered ideas on where
United States policy should go
from here.
After the talk at the EiSen-
hover farm. Mr.. Dulles returned
TO the Gettysburg Hotel and be-
gan three hours Of consultations

with some Of his top aides. They

the easiest man to beat" opin-
ions expressed in this poll are
the result of propaganda which
the political parties have been
aiming at the American public.
1t may develop that Mr.. Nixon
and Mr.. Stevenson are stronger
politically than the opposing par
ties will admit. One Democrat
whom I interviewed said that Dick
Nixon is far from being weak in
the political arena.
If President Eisenhower is not
a candidate, will he indicate his
preference for a successor? That
question was raised several times
in the taking of this poll. What
Mr.. Eisenhower may do in this
regard is of course conjectural,
but for what ultimate purpose
the president has not revealed.
During the period that President
Eisenhower is restricted to mini
mum activity while he RECEIVERS
from his illness, Nixon will have
an exceptional opportunity to
prove his stature. If he measures
up to this opportunity, his nomi-
nation for the presidency, in the
event that Mr.. Eisenhower is not
available, will likely be a fore
gone conclusion.
And as to Adlai Stevenson, this
may be his real chance to demon
Strate commanding capacity of

These are days Of fate. Whom
fate will befriend and whom
