US. Weightlifter
Sets New Record

PHILADELPHIA, R-Paul An
derson, Americas mighty weight
litter, Saturday set himself a new
goal after setting three world
records.
The 24-year-old Olympic candi-
date, breaking two of his own
marks, amassed a total lift Of
LIS pounds in the National
Weightlifting Tournament spon-
sored Friday by the Amateur Ath-
letic Union.
The heavyweight champion an
nounced he would try now for a
total of 1900, hoping to add 10
pounds in the snatch and Is in
the clean-and-jerk.
The 32O-pound 6-foot-2 giant
from Toccoa, Ga, made the new
record total with 400 pounds in
the press, 335 in the snatch "a rec
ord and 440 in the clean Jerk
(another record.
In the snatch he broke the rec
ord of 333 pounds set at the Pan
American games in Mexico City
last year by Norbert Shemansky
of the Detroit YMCA.

unique is the special construction
of the houses against the prevail
ing winds. On the windy side, the
two corners of the house are cut
off at 45-degree slant so that the
wall has the shape of an isosceles
trapezoid. This ingenious con-
struction lessons the perpendicu-
lar impact of the wind by two
thirds. The principle is that of a
blunt wedge section on the windy
side, thereby diverting the wind
to either side like the bow of a
boat parting the water.
After being entertained by the
Eskimos at the schoolhouse and
hiking about the village taking
numerous pictures, we returned
to Nome, hoping to visit again this
land beyond our golden sunset.
The friendliness of the villagers
demands such a return some day.
Several excursion flights are
planned for this summer to st.

other points as requested.-Editor)

Excursionists Enjoy Trip to St. Lawrence Island
Land Where It's Possible to Look Into Tomorrow

Now we came down for a land
ing on the steel-matted field at
Gambell, village located in the
extreme northeast corner of the
island. We could hear the wind
bowling by the plane, indicating
windy day at the island. Soon
we landed and hiked a half mile
to the village. The air was cool,
almost cold but not freezing, al
though we could see our breath.
I met an Eskimo who asked me
my name and hearing it he asked
if my first name was Olaf. He
knew it, ne replied, from reading
my weekly astronomy notes pub
ished in the Nome Nugget. Eski-
mos are careful observers of all
natural phenomena and are very
much interested in the stars and
planets.
He directed me to the Presby-
terrain parsonage and church,
where I renewed friendships with
the missionaries, Rev and Mrs.
Campbell visited the Sunday
school classes and attended church
services a little later. The service
was excellent and full of deep
because everyone in the
village attends church. The sane
tuary was filled to overlooking.
We were favorably impressed by
their strict observance of the Sab
bath day in that the Eskimos rest
from their usual pursuits of hunt
ing and fishing on Sunday.
The Eskimos on St. Lawrence
Island live a life of hunting and
A very impressive sight
along the beach are the numerous
skin boats lying horizontally and
in an inverted position on five
foot poles. Row upon row of these
boats reveal a seafaring occupa-
ton of the inhabitants. Fish racks,
seal racks. and Walrus racks
were perched high above the
ground to make them inaccessible
to the sled dogs. The racks were
filled with meat drying in the sun.
An abundant harvest of meat from
the sea was reflected in the happy
faces of all the Eskimos.
Many dogs resting on the ground
indicated the dogteam activity
during the winter months. They
too are we'll fed from an abundant
food supply.
The homes of the Eskimos are
well built, because strong protec-
ton is demanded against the
the swift, cold winds. Extremely

A land lying beyond the golden
sunset of Nome holds promise for
tomorrow because, from its van
tage point, it is possible to live
in today but look into tomorrow.
This land is st. Lawrence Is
land, a large island lying 200
miles southwest of Nome From
there, one may actually look into
tomorrow, because the Interna-
tional Date Line is SO close that
it is possible to see the coastline
Of foreign land, Siberia, which
has an advanced date of one day.
From geological standpoint,
81. Lawrence Island is a remnant
of land bridge which once con-
nected North America with Asia.
For this reason it is an island of
tremendous scientific Importance
in that it is connecting link be-
tween the East and the West 1t
is a paradise for anthtopologists
and psychologists who seek knowl-
edge of prehistoric times. Ancient
cemeteries have been treasure
houses for great scientists.
It was on a beautiful day in
the latter part of May of this year
that an expedition left Nome Field
in a DC-3 plane and set its course
for this island. Leaving the main
land, we flew over the Mining
Company's holdings at Submarine
and saw portions of the new
dredge being assembled.
Next came Sledge Island, which
looked like a gem in the blue
waters of the Boring Sea. Soon
Cape Prince of Wales came into
view with its surrounding snow
covered peaks4 King Island at
tracted our attention next. This is
the original home of our own King
Island Eskimos who come to our
shores to carve ivory during the
summer months.
OF great interest to all in the
party was the distinctly visible
shoreline and mountains of Siber-
ia, land behind the Iron Curtain.
The curtain is missing, however,
and the shoreline is very visible.
A PERSONS imagination is natur-
ally aroused and one wonders
what goes on there. Perhaps our
own plane could be seen by OBJ
servers somewhere along their
coast being mindful of the fate of
a recent plane which crash-landed
on ST. Lawrence Island.

STEVENSON
Continued From First Pag,

Continued From First Page
after a speech Saturday night
I in Los Angeles, to Boston.
II was handed to newsmen
as Nh. Stevenson was receiving
a noisy midnight welcome from
several hundred supporters,
mostly younger people carrying
"Adlai" signs.
/ Mr.. Stevenson said Mr.. Eli
senhower seems content to
rest the future security of the
United States exclusively on
nuclear weapons" although any
advantage over Soviet Russia in
this field is fast disappearing.
/ The Democratic candidate
commended to Mr.. Eisenhower
a statement Albert Einstein is
reported to have made when
asked what kind of weapons
would be used in World War III.
The reply, according to Mr.. Ste
ivenSon, was, Il don't know what
terrible weapons will be used in
World War III. But I know the
weapons which will be used in
World War IV-they will be
sticks and stones"
4 Then Mr.. Stevenson said:
THE modern technology of
war has put humanity on the
road back to the cave. I be-
lieve that humanity has some
higher and nobler destiny"
| Assures Eisenhower Points
The Stevenson memorandum
referred to the points raised by
Mr.. Eisenhower in his statement
and then undertook to answer
them. Summarized, they were:
/. The Presidents statement
that the SovietS have rejected
no less than IA American dis
armament proposals in the last
two years.
] Mr.. Stevenson said all the
. administrations efforts failed
| because of Soviet rejection of a
system of adequate inspection.
2. Mr.. Eisenhower's statement
that the power of nuclear weap-
onS to deter aggression and to
guard world peace would be lost
If the United States failed to
hold its superiority.
4 Mr.. Stevenson said the state
ment was misleading" in i'm
plying that the United States
must continue to explode nuclear
weapons to maintain its lead.
3. Mr.. EiSenhower's statement
that continuation of the present
rate Of H-bomb testing does not
imperil the health.
Mr.. Stevenson, citing conflict
ing opinions of scientists de-
clared that 1.-The Presidents
statement greatly exaggerates
the degree of certainty that is
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-10-29

possible on the basis Of present
scientific knowledge"
Mr.. Stevenson said the Presi-
dent had given "a wholly false
picture" of the dangers from
Istrontium-90 fallout."
4. The Presidents statement
that a simple agreement to stop
H-bomb tests can not be regard
led as automatically self-enforc-
ing.
Mr.. Stevenson said the Presi-
dent himself had said previous
~ that large H-bomb tests coulC
be detected. His proposal. the
Democratic candidate added. ha:
never proposed any prohibition
on tests other than large H.
bombs.
Spends Busy Day
/ Mr.. Stevenson spent busy
day here on his visit-his first
ito Boston during the campaign
He left the Statler Hotel
where he spent the night
promptly at $3.50 am. and drove
to the WBz television studio
near the Harvard campus. to
appear on a 1890 am. coffee
hour" television program re-
garded as a Democratic answer
ito President Eisenhower's recent
appeal for women's vote.
On the program with Mr.. Ste
venson were his three sons,
lAdlai, jr.. Borden and John Fell.
and his daughter-in-law, Nancy
Stevenson.
The hostess was Mrs. Joseph
P. Kennedy, wife of the former
Ambassador to England and
mother of Senator John F.
Kennedy of Massachusetts,.
Mrs. Kennedy said she had
lost a Son-in-law in the last war
and invited Mr.. Stevenson'S COM
ments on peace. She said that
as a Democrat she thought the
Republicans had made this "a
partisan issue"
No War Party
Mr.. Stevenson replied that
there is no peace party and no
war party and that all Ameri.
cans have the same high hope
for security in the world"
The Democratic candidate
emphasized that this country
must maintain strength but also
must take positive steps to win
the cold war. He added that this
country could be defeated with
out firing a shot.
Borden Stevenson brought up
the H-bomb question by saying
some people thought his father
had raised it as a political issue.
Mr. Stevenson said he had
worked on the matter for years
and had brought it up repeatedly
before the campaign got under
way.
Young Adlai's wife, Nancy, who
is expecting their first child,
asked if the fallout problem was
really serious.
In reply Mr.. Stevenson said
the H-bomb weapons could
spread poison all over the
world" He explained that Stron-
ltium-9O not only could cause

bone cancer but could affect our
children for years to come"
Mr.. Stevenson cleared his
throat numerous times during
the broadcast. Before the broad
cast got under way he remarked
that he had ian awful throat
when he woke up this morning.
After the broadcast, Mr.. Ste
Ivenson remained at the studio
and worked on the speech he
will give tonight at a Democratic
rally here. Between noon and /
O'Clock he was scheduled to drive
in a motorcade through the city

iAo Cdu NC Scti, lIlcIc Was Il
great deal more INDIGESTION about
the congressional, senatorial
and gubernatorial races 1.-TWO
weeks ago. than there was about
the presidential race. This was
probably due to the fact that less
attention had been given at that
time to the more local races.
In early October, many of these
campaigns had not yet gotten of
the ground-and, IN fact. in
some places the candidates had
only just been named.
However, despite the high "un-
decided" votes. the Democratic
candidates appear to have sub
stantial leads in the Nation as a
whole. AS compared to the Re-
Ipublicans' 9 percentage-p DIN
lead in the race for the presi-
Idency, the Democrats have a 7
Ipercentage-point lead in the
various races for congressman,
Jan IL percentage point lead in
the races for Senator. and a 10
Ipercentage-point lead in the
races for governor.
These preference figures are,
of course, composite national
preference figures. and cannot be
applied to any one senatorial.
congressional, or gubernatorial
race. Our study was designed to
obtain an accurate measurement
of national preferences and to
permit analysis of the various
major groups and sections of the
country. 1t was not designed,
however. to permit State-by-
State analysis OF preferences.
Hence, while the Democrats are
ahead of the Republicans by IL
percentage points in the races
for senator, this does not mean
that Wayne Morse is necessarily
IL percentage points ahead of
Douglas Mckay in Oregon.
While the Democrats are ahead
of the Republicans by Is per-
centage points in the races Tor
governor. this does not mean that
Foster Furcolo is necessarily Is
points ahead of the Sumner
Whittier in Massachusetts.
While these figures cannot be
used to toreteli the outcome of
the congressional, senatorial, or
gubernatorial races in any one
State. it is significant that there
is such great Democratic support
Throughout the country for these
Offices in the face of the strong
Republican sentiment for the
presidency and vice presidency
The actual carrying out of these
intentions would call for a good
deal of ticket-splitting, and
hence there is a question as to
how many people will actually
vote according to their prefer
IenceS.
We reported in an earlier
column that a substantial num-
Der of people who wanted tC
split their tickets admitted that
they had ended up voting q
straight ticket because of UNI
certainty. as to how to split the
ticket, and because of a desire
not to invalidate their ballots. In
addition to those who admitted
ut. many more may have been In
the same position but have been
reluctant to admit it.
To the extent that people who
want to vote Republican for
president and vice president,
but Democratic for congressman.
senator, or governor, are frus-
trated in this desire, the indi-
Gated results will not materi-
alize. These people who want to
but either don't know how are
afraid to split their tickets will
probably end up voting a straight
