cused on serious problems in
education. Local and State con-

It will take our combined efforts

acres Of cropland to a soil-bank.
Senator Young, a i1igh-support

that the soil-bank without

higher rigid price supports than
the eight who in 1854 opposed
President Eisenhower's flexible
price plan. which graded price
supports down from 90 per cent

tent OF commodity SURPRISES.
The Administration had been
counting on some Democratic
votes to hold the price support

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j.. Feb.
10 up. - President Eisenhower
called on school administrators
today to use wisdom and cour-
age" in seeking to solve the
serious problems in education. "
In a message of greeting to
the 82d annual convention of
the American Association Of
School Administrators. the
President said 1t will take a
combined effort on local, State
and Federal levels to provide
the kind of education we all
desire for our children"
Mr.. Eisenhower's message,
addressed to H. L. Willett, AASA
president, said in part:

that the REA is in danger of

AS for small business, he said.
this segment of our economy
should be strengthened to pre-
serve competition and with it
economic and political freedom.

the President asked in so many
words: How many of you men
are going to be willing to STAY

Mr.. Hagerty said, II was at

Iicans depend on Mr.. Eisenhower

He told a party dinner in
Brooklyn that "in this helpless
dependence upon one man, the
Republicans have abdicated
party principle and have for
feited party philosophy"
Slap at Nixon
Mr.. De Sapio also said Vice
President Nixon bears an "un-
holy veneration for votes-votes
at any cost"
His criticism of Mr.. Nixon
was based largely on a Lincoln
Day dinner speech here a week
ago in which the Vice President
discussed the Eisenhower ad-
ministration's record on civil
rights, with reference to Earl
Warren as a great Republican
Chief Justice" figuring in the
Supreme Courts decision against
segregation in public schools.
Mr.. Nixon. Mr.. De Sapio de-
clared. thereby "defiled the
memory of Abraham Lincoln. de-
rided the Nations constitutional
form of government and made
reckless political capital of racial
prejudice"
Sees Jeopardy to Life
"A New York City Republican
leader expressed hope yesterday
that President Eisenhower won't
"jeopardize his life" and seek a
second term, but he acknowl-
edged he might be in the mi
nortiy" in hoping against a re-
election bid.
Certainly no such misgivings
were heard from Indiana Repub-
licans at an Indianapolis rally
Saturday night. They met to
sign a petition that would enter

Stanley NJ. Isaacs. Republican
leader of New York's City Coun-
Gil, said in a radio broadcast he

risk"
If Mr.. Eisenhower does run.
Mr.. Isaacs said, Vice President
Nixon would be a disastrous
running mate because he comes

Mr.. Stevenson issued a hve-
line statement on the United
States shipment of Is tanks to
Saudi Arabia several hours after
q conference with Senator Leh-
man, Mr.. Stevenson's chief
marshal in New York.
Meet at Stevenson Home
The statement neither backed
nor opposed the lifting Of the
embargo on arms shipments to
the Middle East.
Mr.. Stevenson and Senator
Lehman met for luncheon at the
Stevenson farm home near
Libertyville. The Chicago Sun
Times said that presumably
they worked over Middle East
policy statement. But the
statement issued last night was
signed by Mr.. Stevenson alone.
It said:
t'As to the confusion over the
tank shipments TIC Saudi Arabia,
the situation in the Middle East
is very critical. and I think this
is a good time to keep cool.
While I do not know what our
Government Is doing, I assume
that it is not unmindful of
Israel's peril and is actively
seeking peaceful solutions Of the
mounting tension"
Mr.. Stevenson returned home
last night from a four-week tour
during which he spoke in six
Western States whose delega-
lions will cast a total of $50
votes at the convention. They
were Arizona, California, Idaho,
Oregon. Washington and Utah.

In 10 days he plans to make
the second of three swings into
Minnesota. where he is support

gates favorable to him in the
March 20 primary.
The Senator, who will oppose
Mr.. Stevenson in the Minnesota

most Of his talks Saturday and
yesterday to the farm problem,
the REA and small business.
He conceded he faces a handi-
cap-the fact that the State

Stevenson. Despite this. among
those who greeted him when he
reached here to spend last night
was Ray Hemenway, State DFL

The situation in Greece has
become so serious as a result
of the deportation of Arch
bishop Makarios that it is
feared the position of the royal
family may be endangered.
The Greek Communists are
arousing the already inflamed
public opinion against Britain
because of its high-handed
methods in dealing with the
question of union with Cyprus.
The situation threatens to get
out of hand as Premier Kara
manlis may not dare to take
strong measures to keep order.
Greece's King Paul, who is
related to the British royal
family, has become the i'm
mediate target of the discon-
tented population. The Com
munists have already started
subversive moves against the
King by saying that because of
this family relationship Paul
has not only been soft" but
actually sold out" Cyprus to
his relatives in London.
The Communist movement
did not die down with the de-
feat of the rebel forces headed
by Markos Vafiades. Gen.
James Van Fleet succeeded in
recognizing the government
army with the aid of an able
staff and large military and
economic assistance from this
country. But after the mill
tary defeat of the Communists,
many returned peacefully" to
the homeland. The already
large number of Muscovite fol-
lowers increased in the main
cities Of Greece as well as in
the country. The Communist
Party was outlawed officially.
But the numbers increased in
labor unions, especially among
the so-called liberal "intelli-
gentsia." They continued their
work, which was made difficult
by the fact that the govern
ment had at its disposal sub
stantial economic help from
the United States.

dates and platform until the
convention could meet. Having
preached moderation, he then
planned to be available II a
moderate candidate appeared
to be a necessary compromise.
1t was generally believed
that Senator johnson was pre-
pared to accept an articulate
liberal-Senator Hubert Hum
phrey, possibly-aS a running
mate to counter his Southern
label.
His heart attack, which was
massive. abruptly ended all
that. But. like the President,
Senator Johnson has recovered
and assumed his old duties on
a reduced schedule. The public
reception given to the Presi-
dents decision to run again
must have had its effect.
But this is known, too.
Speaker Rayburn's call for
Senator Johnson to 60 to the
convention as Texas favorite
son was tactical.
AS a favorite -son candidate
Senator Johnson would auto
matically be chairman Of the
Texas delegation, ruling out
Gov. Allan Shivers, Speaker
Rayburn's pet hate. Gov.
Shivers has not commented
but his associates are denounc-
ing Mr.. Rayburn's move as "a
slick anti-Shivers trick"
Significantly, the Southern
ers let Senator johnson OF the
hook Of the manifesto; he was
not even approached.
Party leaders are keeping
hands off and expressing the
friendly opinion that Senator
Johnson will always in the
end choose to be a national
figure. The cynics add: They
hope.
