Eisenhower Letter Gives
Butler Campaign a Boost

Senator Butler, Republican of
Maryland. has been given a per-
sonal boost by President Eisen-
hover in his bid for reelection
The Senator's Office last night
released a letter from the Presi-
dent. complimenting Senator
Butler for his effective work
In helping enact into law so
many parts of the legislative
programs Of this Administra-
ton"
In conclusion, the Presidents
letter states: II hope that the
people of Maryland give you the
opportunity of continuing your
service in the Senate"
Senator Butler said he was
gratif1ed by President Eisen-
hower's support, and added:
He has always considered me
. part Of the Eisenhower team
Naturally this friendship and CO.
operation will extend in the years
to come and Maryland will be
the beneficiary"
Senator Butler worked against
President Eisenhower at the Re-
publican National Convention
four years ago.

presidential nomination. and. as

Senator Bush refused to tir
his hand as to which Republi.
cans he would appoint to plat
form subcommittee chairman
ships. He said he would an
nounce all his choices next Mon
day in San Francisco.
Asked specifically If Senator
Dirksen would head the civil
rights subcommittee, Senator
Bush said the Illinois Senator
certainly would be a member.
but he could not comment any
further.
Disclosures Are Timed
The Bush disclosures on Re-
publican civil rights plans were
obviously timed to emphasize
the contrast with Democratic
deliberations on their civil rights
plank. He observed pointedly
that the Republican Party does
not have the wide split on the
issue that plaques the Democrats.
On Federal aid to education,
Senator Bush declared that he
expects the platform to reas-
sert the States interests in aid
to school construction.
He also observed that I'VE
think we have a great deal to be
proud of in the field of social
welfare and I think we should
review in the platform our major
accomplishments"
Secretary Dulles, who earlier
had expressed his intention to
participate in San Francisco in
the writing of the foreign policy
plank, now will probably miss
the convention because of the
London conference on SueZ,
Senator Bush acknowledged.

Seeks Strong Endorsement
He said he would urge his COM
mittee to write strong and spe-
cific Endorsement of the Supreme
Court desegregation decision into
the Republican civil rights plank.
The Connecticut Senator
would not say the President
shares his views on this point,
but he did comment more gen.
orally that II think this platform
should be designed to reflect the
political philosophy of the Eisen-
hover administration and its
hopes for the future"
Senator Bush observed that
the Supreme Court ruling on
indignation lis the law of the
land and I should certainly hope
that the Republican Party would
speak approvingly" of it.
The Platform Committee will
have before it recommendations
submitted by members of the
Cabinet and heads of indie
pendent agencies in the execu-
tive branch" Senator Bush re-
ported.
Dulles Memoranda
Among these. he said, were
several memoranda from Secre-
ltary of State Dulles for the for
Ielgn policy section. He said he
would recommend that his COM
Imittee delay its decision about
making specific reference to the
Suez situation until late next
week, after the London confer
ence on internationalizing the
waterway has begun.

Senator said. has emphasized
that he would like to see the

Bush Will Seek
Strong G. 0. P.
RIGHTS Plank

A strong Republican bid for
the additionally Democratic big
city Negro vote was developing
yesterday among G. o. P. leaders
after the announcement of their

Senator Prescott Bush of Con-
necticut, that I'VE will do all we

said he had personally consulted

of his Platform Committee are

passed a resolution to that effect
on August 4.
"As matter of fact, the reso-
luton passed by the Executive
Committee only expressed conf.
dence in the Minnesota delega-
ton and did not mention the
Vice Presidents name directly
or indirectly.
THE delegation is pledged by
the vote of the people to Presi-
dent Eisenhower but not to any
candidate for Vice President.
Many of the members of the deli
egation, and perhaps the ma
jority, are waiting until all
information is available at San
Francisco before making their
decision.
Some of the members of the
delegation definitely feel there
should be a change in the vice
nomination. Some Of
the members of the delegation
now have a very high regard for
Gov. Chris Herter as a potential
vice presidential nominee"

McKeldin, who backed President
Eisenhower. On the decisive
convention ballot. the Maryland
delegates went 16 for President
Eisenhower and 8 for Mr.. Taft.
Later. when it became obvious
Mr.. Eisenhower was going to be
nominated, four of the Maryland
Taft hackers switched to the win
ming side. Senator Butler was
not one Of those who switched.

who is seeking to retain his role
in the Eisenhower administra-

Mr.. Nixon had served the coun-
try, the party and President Eli
senhower well. But he pointed
out that it was vital for the
G. o. P. to select the candidate
with the strongest appeal and
who could best represent all the
people.
Mr.. Rouse went on to say in
his letter to the Presidents dis
armament aide, who now is on
leave of absence from his off,
Icial duties:
Undoubtedly he (Herter) is
one of our great statesmen and
one who would appeal to a large
segment of the American voters.
There are certainly other men
within our party who also are
well qualified for this great re-
sponsibility. -.
Mr.. Rouse is a member of the

Guided explanation of eligibility re-
quirements and the basis for the
amount of payment. Eligibility re-
quirements for general assistance
were reported to include residence on
the reservation and insufficient in
come and resources to meet family
needs. The right to appeal to the
area office and to the Commissioner
of the Bureau of Indian Affairs was
explained.
Of the AZ applicants for general
assistance filed during November and
December, 81 were approved for pay
ment. Each applicant whose applica-
ton was approved was given a choice
of payment by check or by emergency
purchase order. 1t was explained that
payment by check requires approx
mately two weeks and that purchase
orders could be issued Immediately.
Fifteen families chose to receive their
initial payments by purchase order
and 16 families preferred to receive
the initial payment by check. Four
applications were denied Two o.
these live off the reservation and two
are receiving categorical assistance
from the county. Seven applications
are currently pending while determi-
nation is being made of the extent
of their resources and the effect of
such resources on eligibility.
The Tribal Business Committee
took action on December IA to make
a per capita distribution of commodi-
ties purchased for 1900 to all en-
rolled persons on and off the reser-
walton who applied in person, regard
less of need. This action was taken
after assurance was obtained from
the area social worker that the re-
ceipt of these commodities would not
affect eligibility for assistance or the
of payment.
The Bureau of Indian Affairs oper-
ates a relocation program based on
action of Indians who re-
quest help in becoming established
at places outside the state where en-
ployment opportunities are available.
Availability of employment under the

resentative Metcalf's analysis of
President Eisenhower's "new" soil
bank program:
But the 1856 model of the soil
bank program has new twist. 1t
provides that farmers, who with
draw acres from commercial pro-
duction of Certain basic commodi-
ties, would be paid off from govern
ment stocks of comm ODDITIES they
were not producing.
Lets take the case of a Mon
tana wheat farmer who retired 30
acres of land into the soil bank.
And let's say his average produc-
ton was 80 bushels to the acre. He
would be entitled to draw out 900
bushels of wheat from government
stocks.
He would be paid off in wheat
instead of in cash the corn
farmer would get corn, the cotton
farmer cotton, and the rice grower
would be paid off in rice.
This program will not apply to
peanuts-perhaps because Mr.. Eli
senhower does not want to be
tagged with farm program that
literally pays off in peanuts"

al representative in Montana of the
International Brotherhood of Elec-
trical Workers, has been appointed
secretary of the Montana Democratic
State Central Committee.
Jack Toole, state Democratic chair
man, announced he had appointed

party secretary since 1913. Murray's
resignation is effective Jan. Is. In
submitting it he announced he felt
he should resign his party position
before he officially files as a candi-
date for secretary of state.
"Our party is fortunate in secur-
ing Thompson for the important
party post vacated by the veteran
Murray" Toole said. ellis wide ex-
perience in industrial development
and labor relations will help in the
sound growth of our party for the
good of Montana"
Toole said after graduating from
the Chicago Trade School, Chicago,
Thompson worked as an electrician
for electrical firms and the Sante Fe
railway until 1926 when he came to
Montana. He worked as construction
foreman for the Mountain States
Telephone Co. until 1910, excepting
