venson at every point.
He said Mr.. Stevenson, in crit
lcizing the administration for re-
fusing to give any guarantee to
Israel, ignores two clear facts:
|. The maintenance Of the
independence of Israel has been
and remains a fundamental
matter Of United States policy
under this. as under the pre-
ceeding administration.
2. The Eisenhower admin
istration has repeatedly re-
affirmed its adherence to the
1850 agreement with Great
Britain and France which obli-
gated its signers to come to the
assistance Of Israel and Israel,s
neighbors in the case Of unpro-
voked aggression"

Nixon, incidentally, is popular
with the G. o. P. organiza-

He has been a help to the

giving the conservative wing
of the party a sense Of be-

Why the old Taft wing of
The party should look to Dick
Nixon may be puzzling at a
casual glance. For he was ac-
i've against Senator Taft and
on behalf of Gen. Eisenhower
in the 1852 convention. He
antagonized some of his fellow
Californians, including Sen
ator William F. Knowland and
in particular then Gov. Earl
Warren, by his maneuvers.
Though pledged to Gov. War
rem for the 1852 Republican
presidential nomination, he
worked privately to swing Cali

The attraction which the

("The surplus arose out of

Beginning with a first sched-
uled stop at Winona and grind

his Minnesota political migration

this afternoon at the Twin Cities

200 Miles in Pennsylvania
The Tennessee Senator's
Minnesota version of the Chat
nooga choo-choo" followed a
full day and evening of hard
driving and hard hitting for al
most 200 miles in western Penn
lsylvania yesterday.
He attracted crowds almost az
large and enthusiastic as those
in Rhode Island and MasSa-
lchusetts Thursday. He was
helped BY unusually mild
weather. outpourings of hun
dreds of school youngsters along
the line, and the fact that most
of the places he visited had
never before seen a presidential
or vice presidential candidate OF
either party.
He spoke at such manufac-
turing centers as Youngstown
Ohio, and Sharon, Newcastle
and Ellwood City, Pa. In 1852
those Pennsylvania cities went
strongly for Mr.. Eisenhower. He
chose the Democratic stronghold
OF Beaver Falls for his major
address last night. Gov. George
Leader and Pittsburgh Mayor
David Lawrence, the Pennsyl-
lvania Democratic National Com
mitteeman, went all the way with
him.
A principal theme in most OF
his daylight speeches was that
the Eisenhower administration
has left a long trail Of broken
promises to labor. farmers, small
business. school teacher, and
children, and high cost-of-living
sufferers since 1858.
In his Beaver Falls speech. he
said he hoped President Eisen-
hover would be able to keen
his promise TO keep the United
states from being involved in
any fighting in the Near East
crisis.

EN- ROUTE WITH NIXON,
Nov. 3.-In the 18th hour of his
Campaign. Vice President Nixon
has assumed the role of spokes-
man for and defender Of the
administrations foreign policy.
| Departing from the generals
ties which have marked his
speeches to date. Mr.. Nixon spe-
Officially answered charges lew
eled at the White House by Adj
Ilai Stevenson and called our ac-
Ition in the Middle Eastern cri-
sis "a declaration Of indepen-
dence" toward Anglo-French CO.
journalism.
That he did so with the full
blessing Of the President was
made clear in a telegram sent
by Mr.. Eisenhower to Represent
tative Simpson. Republican OF
Pennsylvania. in which the Pres
ident Endorsed Mr.. Nixon as his
representative literally in the
-four corners of the world" and
as one well equipped to bring
ito our people the significance OF
the events which are daily OF
such great concern to our peo-
pie"
The telegram was read to an
enthusiastic. but less than
capacity crowd In the Hershey
Sports Arena - which holds
about 8,700-by Mr.. Simpson,
just before Mr.. Nixon made his
appearance.
/ According to his aides, the
decision to have Mr.. Nixon as
sumo the burden Of one Of the
major speeches Of the campaign
was made a week ago. The
basic formal of what turned out
to be an important foreign policy
pronouncement took shape
Thursday. Just before he went
ito the hall last. night for his
nationally televised speech, Mr..
Nixon conferred with Secretary
Iof State Dulles from his hotel
i'm Harrisburg.
From these conferences came
Ia justification Of our break with
Jour British and French allies
over the Israeli invasion Of
Egypt.
Replies TO Stevenson
Mr.. Nixon said that Mr.. Ste
lvenson, who called the Eisen-
hower's foreign policy "abysmal
and catastrophe" would have
better applied the adjectives To
his own performance.
AS for Mr.. Stevenson's charge
that the United States was
standing alone in an unfriendly
world, Mr.. Nixon said:
THE lie to this preposterous
charge was given within a few
hours when 81 nations in the
General Assembly Of the United
Nations gave their unqualified
support to the position which
was taken by our Government
with respect to the Middle East
crisis. 1t is significant that only
i've opposed our resolution"
Mr.. Stevenson's charge that
the Western alliance has broken
down was labeled by Mr.. Nixon
as "a dangerous and irrespon-
sible Misrepresentation of fact
which our friends in England
and France would be the first
to deny.

Britain and France" Mr.. Nixon

he stated, "the Government did

into a contract that was sup

so per cent active material absorbed on
a clay carrier. Ofttimes wettable pow
ders can be used with no effect on
plants which are harmed by emulSifi-
able concentrates. Wettable powders do
not form solution or emulsion in water
and constant stirring is therefore neces-
sary to keep the small particles sus-
pended in the water. If the spray isn't
constantly agitated, spray nozzles and
hoses can become plugged.
Leave Deposit
This form isn't readily affected by
cold weather but, like any organic COM
pound, will deteriorate if held at very
high temperatures. Wettable powders
leave a white deposit on vegetation
which may or may not be desirable.
New leaves which have grown out since
the last application stand out and can
be used as guide for timing the next
spray. On the other hand, some people
consider the deposit unsightly, espe-
cially on ornamentals.
Dusts will do just about anything
sprays will but they are generally con-
sidered a little less efficient. They con-
tains only 10 per cent of active
material, so the purchaser pays freight
on and buys a good deal of clay, tale
or other diluent They are, however,
handy and this often offsets the small
added expense where only limited
amounts are used. They don't need mix
ing with water, so what may be a
sloppy job is done away with.
Regardless of what type of spray ma
terial is used the key to good bug
control lies in correct timing and thor
oughness of application. Manufacturer S
recommendations on the containers give
the correct diIution for most insects

Wettable Powder
Spray or Dust?
By GEORGE ROEMHILD

WHICH is THE BEST form of insect
eide to use in your home garden?
There isn't any best but each does
have advantages and disadvantages. I
think the first point to employ in judg
ing which to use is to look over your
equipment and decide what it will best
use. If you have good garden sprayer
there isn't much to be gained by switch
ing to dust and vice-versa.
First, let's look at the liquid spray
materials. They are fairly convenient
to use and various strength sprays can
be made by merely adding more or less
of the concentrate to the water.
They do have couple of drawbacks
both of which stem from the manner
in which they are made. Liquid sprays
are usually emulsifiable concentrates.
That is, the active ingredients are not
soluable in water, so a second material
is added to act as sort of go-between.
Under very high or very low tempera-
lures these two materials may separate
and good emulsion does not result.
Check Stored Liquids
If you are thinking about that bottle
of spray you left in the garage over
winter you can check it this way. Add
a couple of teaspoonfuls to some water
in a glass jar. Stir it thoroughly and
allow to stand awhile. If it remains
milky with no settling out or Dreaming
offs on top it is OK. If it settles or an
oily layer appears on top, better chalk
it off to experience and store it next
time in a cool but not cold place.
The second disadvantage to liquids is
they may damage plants. The active
ingredients again are not to blame bu
the oils used for solvents may harm
special plants. This isn't usually tn
case. In general they are perfectly SAT
to use but, where priced plants are In
volved, it may be advisable to try
small amount first to determine if an
unusual effects result.
Wettable powders usually contain 2
