The Wages Of War

Long before the French came to
Quebec, the Wyandotte Indian nation
lived on the north side of the St.
Lawrence River down to Coon Lake
and on up the Utiwas-a land it call
ed Cu-none-tet-tia. The Senecas' lived
on the other side of the river and on
the island on which Montreal now
stands. Both tribes numbered many
thousands and they lived in peace
together. They were allies, spoke
nearly the same language and were
related. According to the intricate
Indian way of figuring out kinship
thsx.were cousins.
I Such were the conditions when a
Wyandotte warrior proposed to a Sem
eca maiden and was refused. "You
are no warrior and never have TAX
en- a scalp, the girl chided him.
Thereupon the Wyandotte gathered
few friends together and went out
after scalps. They took six-all Sem
ecas. Thus the Wyandotte-Seneca war
began and it lasted more than 100
years.
First one tribe had the upper hand
and then the other, but usually the
Wyandottes got the worst of it. Many
on both sides were killed and both
nations were badly depleted. When
the tribes were thinned out the fight
ing lulled for while until the Ind
ian boys grew old enough to fight,
and then it broke out all over again.
There was no quarter for non-com-
batants-men, women and children
alike were butchered.
Finally, fearing annihilation, the
Wyandottes fled far to the est. With
their canoes the whole nation escap-
ed to the upper lakes and settled in
the vicinity of Green Bay. They had
several villages, but in few years
the Senecas followed them, attacked
one of the villages, killed some Wyan-
dottes, then went back home.
Through this long period the Ind
ians had no other weapons than bows
and arrows, spears and war clubs.
About the time of the attack on the
village, the French came to Quebec,
began trading with the Indians and
supplied the Senecas with guns and
ammunition AS soon as they had
learned to use the guns, the Serecas
made another raid on the Wyan-
>dottes. The attack was not success.
The Senecas found the Wyandottes
asleep, and rushing into their huts,
blazed away. But they were poor
marksmen and few were killed. The
Wyandottes were scared nearly to
death-they thought it was thunder
and lightning.
A similar later attack caught the
young warriors away and only the
old men, squaws and boys were in
the Wyandotte camp. They surren-
dered and agreed to go back home
with the Senecas and merge into
their nation but asked for two days
to get ready. That night, with the
aged and squaws from the two viii
lagos not yet molested by the enc
my, they slipped up on the Senecas
and found them in wild celebra-
ton of victory. They had killed and
roasted two Wyandotte captives and
were eating what they called IVY
andotte beef" and Dragging on its
flavor. Waiting until they were tired,
surfeited and asleep, the Wyandottes

attacked and killed all of them.
They now were more formidable,
had secured guns and ammunition
from the French and had learned
how to use them. But the Indians on
whose land they had been living ask
ed the tribe to leave. Then taking
their canoes the whole Wyandotte
tribe went by waterways to Lake
Erie. There they planned a settle
ment where Detroit now stands and
another nearby on the site of Ft.
Maiden. Three canoes were sent to
the other side of the lake to ascer-
tain If any enemy was in the vicin-
ity. They returned and reported that
a big notilla of Seneca canoes already
were around in the point-old Long
Point. Resolving to fight it out on the
water, the whole fleet of Wyandotte
canoes went out on the lake to meet
the enecas.
The fight was a fierce and bitter
one. Finally, the Wyandottes saw the
last Seneca die and fall into the wa
ter. They had won the 100 years war
but so many of their own band had
been killed and wounded that all they
were able to do was let the empty
canoes sink or float away among the
waves and pull for the shore.
The foregoing legend is from the
Indians own story of the war. The
remnant of the Wyandotte tribes set
tied around Upper Sandusky, in I'm
ion and Wyandotte counties, and what
was left of the Senecas settled east
of the Sandusky River.

II you know what qualities to
look for when you select your
Christmas turkey. you'n be able to
make wiser choice.
The market class Of turkeys Is
determined by ages. sex. and ten.
derness Of meat. The youngest
turkeys are fryers and rossters
and they run from 4 to 8 pounds
In weight. The next class consists
OF young hen and young tom
turkeys under eight months of age.
These vary In weight from 9 to
IS pounds. And finally there are the
tom and hen turkeys. which In
clude birds over eight months of
age varying considerable In
weight.
Most Of the Christmas turkeys
belong to the young hen or young
tom classification. To be of top
quality, bird should have q we'll
developed moderately broad and
long breast, well fieshed through
its entire length. the flesh carry
ing well UP to the highest part Of
the breastbone so that the bone
Is not prominent. Also. the legs
should be wen covered with flesh.
Fat covering Is one of the most
important points In determining
quality from the standpoint of ex-
cellence Of flavor and tenderness.
The carcass should be well covered
with fat over the breast. back hips
and pin bones. In poultry the fat
Is deposited In the skin and Inn
mediately under the skin rather
than dispersed throughout the lean
flesh as It Is In some meats.
Select bird that Is free from
pin feathers. Ready to cook or
oven-ready turkeys have no pro-
truding pin feathers.

is no indication so far he will
agree to Nixon's displacement as
his running mate. A number of
Republicans. however. have ex-
pressed fears that a renomina-
ton of Nixon would weaken the
Iparty's national ticket. Some of
them may press for a change.
The President today repeated
his praise of Nixon. He said he
had consulted with him. but
declined to say who his choice
for a running mate would be. He
said that the nomination Of a
vice presidential candidate takes
place after the nomination of
the head Of the ticket. If he
sticks to that proposition. the
selection of a vice presidential
nominee may not be finally made
until next August in San Fran
cisco.
Many suggestions have already
been made for a substitute for
Nixon, among them Gov.
Christian Herter of Massachu-
sets. Gossip has suggested the
name, too, of former Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey of New York.
Mr.. Dewey has insisted he is a
candidate for no Office.
Republican campaign pla n S
will go forward, now, as planned
by Republican National Chair
man Leonard w. Hall. Mr.. Hall
has consistently predicted that
the President would run "if he
is able" This prediction was first
made by Mr.. Hall not long after
Eisenhower suffered his Septem-
Der "a heart attack. All campaign
plans were made, therefore, on
the cory that Eisenhower
would be the standard bearer
again.

even IL Mr.. Eisenhower is re-
elected. Their contention is that
the President is much stronger
with the voters than Is the Re-
publican Party, and they point
to the fact that, despite his over
whelming victory in 1852, the
Republicans won control OF the
Senate and House by the scan
test of margins. Mr.. Eisenhower
carried 297 congressional dis
tricts in that year. but Repub-
lican candidates for the House
won only 221' seats. 8 more than
a majority.
The Republicans will campaign
on the slogan. Peace, Prosper
ity and Progress. They hope and
believe that Eisenhower will be
able to repeat his victories in
the States of the South, partic-
ularly in Virginia and Florida.
and that he will have the Re-
publican vote in the big farm
States Of the Midwest, all of
which he carried In 1852 by wide
margins.

William r. Knowland Of CAL
Iifornia, Republican leader Of the
Senate. The California Senator
has never formally announced
himself a candidate for Pres
Iident. He has, however, permit
ted his name to be entered in
presidential preferential pri-
maries in Alaska, Illinois and a
number of other States, and has
indicated he will enter the pri-
Imaries in Florida. Wisconsin and
California in the future.
Senator Knowland will now
have to decide on his course OF
action. 1t is too late for him
and his friends to withdraw from
some of the primaries. Senator
Knowland. in any event. cannot
hope to upset an Eisenhower
nomination. His only hope would
+ lie in future illness of the Pres
Iident and an Eisenhower with
drawal.
No other Republican hopefuls
have gone as far as Senator
Knowland toward a bid for the
presidential nomination. All OF
them are expected to fall in line
for the President. And Senator
Knowland himself has said re-
Ipeatedly he will not oppose an
Eisenhower denomination, pro-
Ivided the President announced
himself candidate.
Democratic leaders, many OF
whom had predicted the Pres
Iident would not run. will revamp
their campaign plans. The big
Issues they will, in all probable
lily. bring into the campaign are
the Presidents health. the drop
in farm prices. big business in
Government, foreign policy. ma
tional defense. public power ver-
Sus private power and, finally,
Vice President Nixon. If Mr.
Nixon is continued on the Re-
publican ticket.
Attack Stepped Up
Democratic attacks on Mr.
Nixon began more than tive
years ago and have increased
with the passing months. They
will concentrate on the assertion
that he is not the man to become
President-if anything happens

from ONCE during the years
1857 to 1861.
Adlai Stevenson. who has
been the front-running candi-
date for the Democratic presi-
Dental nomination. may find
stronger opposition growing out
of the fact that he was badly
defeated by Eisenhower in 1852.
His leading opponents are Sena-
tor Kefauver of Tennessee and
Governor Hartman of New
York, with Governor Williams
of Michigan and Senator Sy-
inington of Missouri as poten-
tial added entrants.
There is always the possibility
the Democrats may decide to
let Stevenson have the nomina-
Ition on the theory that Eisen-
hover is virtually sure Of re-
election. But that seems un-
likely. Many of them are
convinced that this is a Demo-
cratic year and that Eisenhower
can be beaten. They rely on
the Democratic victories for
Governors Of important States
lin 1853 and 1854, and Demo-
cratic victories in many munich
pal election in 1855, as fore
casting Democratic victory this
year.
Eisenhower's decision to stand
for reelection Immediately gives
renewed hope to many Republic
can candidates for Congress and
for high state Office. No winning
presidential candidate has failed
since Civil War days to carry
the House of Representatives
with him to victory except
Woodrow Wilson when he was
elected for a second term.
Different in Senate
Even in the Wilson election,
the Democrats outnumbered the
Republicans in the newly elected
House-though they did not
have a majority of the whole
House. They were able to organ
! ize the House and elect a Speaker
with the aid of third-party mem
bers and independents. This pre-
cedent does not hold for the
Senate, only one-third of whose
members are elected along with
10 President.

@. Well. can you give us
little bit this morning?
A. No, I think not. The trouble
is, it opens up variety of ques-
tions for doctors and myself and
the rest of it, and I think I have
got to have a little time TO tell
that story.
@. MIR. President. do you con-
slider the lack of Republican
control of Congress to be a
handicap to your administra-
ton? If you do, what action
will you take to attempt to get
a Republican Congress?
A. Well, the latter part OF
your question I am not going
to answer now because it is
going over into the field of the
future.
What l Believe
This is what I believe: If we
are honestly dedicated to a two
party system, that is. the two-
party-to a single party re-
sponsibility in this country-then
the legislature and the execu-
tive should properly be in the
same hands, so that there can
be responsibility fixed without
elimination and recrimlnation
So to that extent you may in
terpret it as you please, but this
is not to deny that in many
things in which / wanted !
have had active and vital Demo-
cratic support in certain of the
programs that I have advanced.
But ] do say if we are going to
adhere to the two-party system
as a fundamental part of our
political doctrine, we should GER
tainly. whenever it is humanity
possible. to have these groups in
the-under the control of the
same party.
@. Do you believe, sir, that the
existence of a Democratically-
controlled Congress has pre-
vented the adoption of any i'm
portant part of your program?
A. I have never. analyzed it in
that way. Mr.. Wilson. And
couldn't say that for sure, but
do say that, as just admitted,
that in many instances I have
had definite Democratic ap-
prevail.
Won't Comment on Comment
@. What is your reaction, sir,
to Mr.. Nixon's Characterization
of Chief Justice Warren as a Re-
publican Chief Justice?
A. Well, I am not going to
comment on his comment.
never do. But I will say this:
Once a man has passed into the
Supreme Court, he is an Amer
lean citizen and nothing else in
my book until he comes out of
that court, and believe that
1t would be-f would never admit
that he was-longer had a poll

@. Mr. President, not to press
you about your health. sir, but
as of right now. do you feel well
enough to hit the campaign trail?

To Accept Second Term

A. Well, 7 will answer those
things this evening.
@. Can you tell us whether
you consulted Vice President
Nixon on your decision?
! A. Oh, yes. l consulted Vice
President Nixon all the time,
and no later than, ] think, yes
terday afternoon.
| @. Mr.. President. if you are
renominated, sir. are you quite
hopeful of being reelected?
A. Am I what?
@. If you are renominated,
are you quite hopeful of being
elected?

American people. l say my cam
ipaign is the record.

persons were in on your secret,
Mr.. President?

| A. Well, I think since last
evening there has been probably
half a dozen.
| @. How about before that,
Mr.. President?
! A. Well. there could have been
no one because I didn't know
myself. Uaughter.)
@. Mr.. President. can you tell
us. sir. what the most decisive
consideration was for you in the
decision you have reached?
A. Well, that is very difficult,
but I think that my talk this
evening will probably indicate
it quite clearly. But its
when you come down to COM
iparisons, I am not certain what
influences a man most in this
world.
! @. Mr.. President, can you tell
us had you made up your mind
previous to your heart attack
that you would run for q second
term?

cret l don't think I will ever tell

tive?"
H. A. Yes.
@. Mr.. President, in the light
Of your decision. sir, will you
press in this session of Congress
for Qualification Of the Consti-
tutional flaw about succession in
the presidency?
A. Well, as quickly, / think,
as legislation could be drawn up
that would convince us all that
it did clarity and make this thing
would satisfy the conflicting
ideas on the thing-I would be
for it right away, just as soon as
possible; and it has nothing to
do though. with me. And l as
sure you of this: My answer
would not be Affirmative unless
thought I could last out the five
years.
