|Nixon's Father Improves,
Son to Reioin Convention

j WHITTIER, Calf. Aug. % up.
Vice President Nixon, called
from the Republican National
Convention by the critical illness
of his father. decided today to
return to San Francisco to ac-
cept denomination in person.
Mr.. Nixon was given the "go
ahead" by his improving father,
Frank A, Nixon, n. and the doc
tors in attendance.
The Vice President, leaving
Los Angeles at l pm. Washing
ton time, was scheduled to arrive
lat San Francisco at approxi-
mately ESQ pm.
The senior Nixon, stricken
with a rupture of the main abb
dominal artery early yesterday,
was pronounced in Every salts
factory" condition this morning
after having been near death.
The Vice President, his wife
Pat. brother F. Donald and Sis
tter-in-law Clara Jane few in
from the convention a few hours
latter the father was stricken.
The elder Nixon. now out of
the oxygen tent, was asked by
his doctor if he thought his son
should return.
He encouraged the trip" the
Nixon family doctor said.
| Speaking for himself and a
specialist attending Mr.. Nixon,
1.-THE doctor said:
I'VE both agreed that (the
Vice Presidents return to the
convention) would be a better
tonic than any we could give.
In fact, Dicks denomination was
Ia great tonic for his father.
Barring any sudden change.
believe Mr.. Nixon will weather
this attack. He had a fair night,
had some nausea which is always
disturbing in a case like this,
but his heart and pulse condi-
tion are good"
The doctor said he understood
Mr.. Nixon was working on his
acceptance speech.

LungIie Suggests
Stevenson Debate

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. % up,
Gov. Arthur B. Langlie of
Washington has challenged
Adlai Stevenson to a debate ito
get the truth" of the political
campaign to the people.
The Republican convention
keynote speaker made his pro-
posal yesterday as a comeback
at the attack the Democratic
presidential nominee made
Tuesday on Gov. Langlie's
speech to the G. o. P.
Mr.. Stevenson at Libertyville
Ill, accused Gov. Langlie of hav-
ing "shamelessly confused facts
and falSehoods" in his address.
Gov. Langlie said the material
in his keynote speech was well
briefed" for accuracy and he
would put it up against anything
Mr.. Stevenson might say or do.
Il would be glad to cooperate
with Mr.. Stevenson in a pres
entation of facts to get the
TRUTH" Gov. Langlie told news
men. Let him present his facts
and I'll present mine"
"A debate, or an analysis or a
study or thorough research OF
any other way that we can get
at the TRUTH" Gov. Langlie
replied.

q
vessel caused by seepage Of blood
through the weakened tissues Of
the vessel-in Mr.. Nixon's case,
the main abdominal artery.
Mr.. Nixon was officially in
formed by telephone from San
Francisco that he had been re-
nominated.
While his father rested under
heavy sedatives in an upstairs
bedroom, the Vice President
stepped to the porch of the two
s.ory, stucco house and told about
so assembled newSmen and
neighbors standing in the drive
way:
I'D like to say no man could
be more greatly honored-or
have more responsibility-than
to have been selected to serve as
President Esenhowers running
mate"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-08-23

Mr.. Nixon stayed at his par
ents' home overnight and looked
in on his father several times
The Vice Presidents mother also
spent much of the night at her
husbands bedside.
The elder Nixon watched the
convention on the television set
at the foot of his bed in his
home here last night and saw his
son renominated. He has not
needed administration of oxygen
since midnight.
The Vice Presidents father is
a pioneer in this suburb, some Is
miles southeast of Los Angeles.
He was stricken at his nearby
home of what the doctor de-
scribed as a dissecting aneurysn
of the aorta.
This is a ballooning OF a blood

curly hair. and could be called
handsome.
He is one Of the busiest men
in the Capital. AS presiding Of
ficer of the Senate. he has been
one of the White Houses most
active lobbyists on Capitol Hill.
Since the Presidents 1855 heart
attack and June 8 operation, Mr..
Nixon's work has multiplied.
In one way, his problems have,
too. Because he is next in line
to the presidency, he has been
brought under closer scrutiny.
For all the praise Mr., Eisen-
hover showered on his 1852 rum
ming mate, the President never
said in so many words that he
wanted an Ike-and-Dick ticket
again this year.
Even so, Republican State or
CARNATIONS in many parts of the
country Endorsed Mr.. Nixon as
the obvious choice for renomi-
nation. convinced the President
wanted him.
Stassen Starts Drive
Then. barely three weeks be-
fore the nominating convention,
rebellion developed. Harold E.
IStassen, presidential adviser on
disarmament and a perennial
prospect for the presidency him
self, came out against Mr.. Nixon.
Mr.. Stassen started a drive to
nominate Massachusetts, Gov.
Christian A. Herter instead.
Gov. Herter pretty well put a
damper on it by announcing he
himself would put Mr.. Nixon's
name in nomination at San Fran
cisco, which he did yesterday a
few hours after Mr.. StasSen
talked to Mr.. Eisenhower and
threw in the sponge on his GUST
Nixon drive.
Unquestionably, there was an
undercurrent of opposition to
Mr.. Nixon within the Republican
Party. 1t could have swelled to
the surface at a word from Mr..
Eisenhower, but the word never
came.
What have people got against
Mr.. Nixon?
For one thing. some say he's
all right as a Vice President,
taking orders and guidance from
the White House, but would not
be all right if he were in the
White House directing things
himself. Mr.. Eisenhower's S.
years and two recent illnesses
spotlight that criticism.
Tactics Anger Democrats
For another, some don't like
his campaign tactics. What seem

1851 by defeating Democrat
Helen Gahagan Douglas.
In 1852, Mr.. Eisenhower listec
half a dozen young Republicans
who'd suit him as vice presiden.
tial nominees. Mr.. Nixon was
chosen.
Expense Fund Attacked
Early in the campaign Mr.
Nixon came under fire from the
Democrats for accepting a private
expense fund from well-off fell
low Californians while in the
Senate. There was serious talk
of dropping him from the ticket
Mr.. Nixon bounced back with
a zing few television playwrights
could have dreamed up. He weVt

he counted every handicap. Does
he have a book that tells him
what to do in any Situation?"
"Son," said a colleague, "look
around at the rest of these yowl-
ing characters in this conven-
ton hall. Which one of them
do you think has his eye on the
ball-the way Dick Nixon has?'
Richard M. Nixon, vice presi-
dent at 40, renominated yester-
day at 40. is indeed a man with
his eye on the ball.
It may seem an odd role for q
shy youngster from Yorba Linda
Calf, where his father grew
some not-overly- thriving citrus
trees.
It's not so odd, though, fol
the kind of serious young man
he grew up to be.
Gray-Flannel Suit Success
Mr.. Nixon is strictly goth cen.
tury. He is probably the first Of
his kind to come so close to the
presidency. His Skyrocket rise
from nowhere to next door tt
the White House is a grey-flan-
nel-suit success story.
1t may not be sheer coinci.
dence that in 1854 Mr.. Nixon
was Cd named salesman Oh
the year" by the Los Angeles
Sales Executive Club, and 90
described by Newsweek Maya
zine as "the Eisenhower adj
ministration'S star salesman"
Mr.. Nixon has "sold" the Eli
senhower a d ministra ion al
home and abroad. In telecasts
and whistle-stop speeches. In q
round-the-world sweep, a Carib-
bean tour. a recent swing
through Eastern Asia.
Applause has been profuse
but not unanimous abroad. The
Communists and their friends
have sent up the catcall "Tricky
Dickie." At home, some Demo-
Gratis have blown fuses and de-
manded Mr.. NiXon'S hide.
But a salesman's value Is
measured by his standing with
