President Eisenhower may gain
ta) because of his prompt decla-
ration that the United States
will take no part in the fighting
IN the Middle East where Britain
France and Israel are hammer
ing at Egypt; (b) because of his
great and successful military ex-
perlence, and (c) because the
American people are disinclined
to change leaders when danger
threatens from abroad.
Stevenson Hits Leadership"
Mr.. Stevenson, on the other
hand, is making the most OF
charges that Mr.. Eisenhower
and Secretary of State Dulles
have failed to give the world
leadership-particularly of the
Western woodland so brought
about the mess in the Middle
East. He has accused the Presi-
dent of withholding information
from the American people. He
insists the Republican peace"
issue has blown up. Depending
on how far he has impressed
these views on the voters, Mr..
Stevenson may gain.
The international situation
may have its effect, too. on the
race for political control of
Congress.
Just as the consensus favors
Mr.. Eisenhower in the contest
for President. the consensus
favors the election of a Demo-
cratic Congress. This is unusual.
Almost invariably an elected
President has with him a Con-
press of his political party
certainly the House of Repre-
sentatives if not the Senate.
The argument goes, for the
Democrats. that if Mr.. Eisen-
hover wins by a narrower mar
Gin than in 1862, as expected,
the prospects are for a Demo-
cratic Congress.
Despite Mr.. Eisenhower's big
victory four years ago, the Re-
publicans won control of Con-
gress by a whisper. In the
House race, the Republicans
won 22l seats to 2l3 for the
Democrats and one independent.
In the Senate, there were 48 Re-
publicans. Al Democrats and
one independent, Morse of
Oregon. Two years later. the
Democrats took command of
both House and Senate.
Senate Contest Close

Democrats and 202 Republicans

rotary General Dag Hammarsk-

hours for an emergency inter-
national U. N. force to police the
war-torn Middle East.
United States Chief Delegate
Henry Cabot Lodge, jr., immedi-
ately Endorsed the proposal dra-
put before the Assembly
by Canada's Foreign Secretary
Lester B. Pearson.
Mr.. Lodge asked the Assembly
to give the Canadian resolution
priority over two United States
proposals he had made for a
long-range settlement of both
the Israeli-Arab and Suez prob
lens.
Speedy Action Sought
Mr.. Pearson proposed that Mr.
Hammarskjold report his plans
within 48 hours after the reso-
luton is adopted. He and Mr.
Lodge pointed out that while Mr.
Hammarskjold was at work, the
delegates could push forward
their efforts to stop the fighting
at once.
Earlier. the United States
proposals had run into imme-
date Arab criticism as appease-
ment.
Acting on instructions OF
President Eisenhower, United
States Delegate Henry Cabot
Lodge, jr.. put before the emer-
gency General Assembly two
resolutions. Each called fol-
creation Of separate negotiating
committees. one to work out a
settlement Of the Palestine ques-
ton and the other the Suez
Canal controversy.
The resolutions contained no
proposals for immediate action
TO end the war in Egypt. Mr.
Lodge told the Assembly they
should be considered while
efforts went on to stop the
fighting.

funds during the next three
years, as a result of the new ma

vance construction priority on
other main Washington area
roads.
However, Robert o. Bonnell,
new Roads Commission chair
man. cautioned against "over-
optimistic expectations" as re-
suit of the new Federal aid
money.
The reason, he said, is that
road costs are running nearly
rs per cent above estimates made
when the States l2-year road
program was set up three years
ago. Specifically, he said, con-
Struction costs are averaging
PA per cent above Stimates,
and right-of-way land costs ex-
coed estimates by so per cent.
BY the end of 1859, the COM
mission had expected to spend

considerable amount of State
funds for other projects and
could result in a re-shuffling Of
time schedules for some of the
most costly.
The Maryland suburbs of
Washington have only two roads
in the 12-year program which
qualify in the interstate" cate
gory-new Route 240 Washing
ton National pike and the inter-
county belt freeway. But Mr.
Bonnell said both will be given
strong consideration in allocating
the new money.
Plans Near Completion
Thus far, the commission has
let construction contracts for
only brief portion Of the belt
road, between Wisconsin and
Connecticut avenues in Rock
Greek Park. But plans for the
road are about rs per cent com
plete, and the commission has
spent $2.2 million for right-ot-
way in Montgomery County and
$338,000 in Prince Georges.
Following-exclusive of new
Federal aid possibilities are
projects commission officials al
ready have scheduled for con-
structioa contract awards in the

At present cost levels. however
this expenditure would have tC
be exceeded by $40 million in

What this boils down to, Mr.
Bonnell said, is that the new
Federal aid will give the State
a mighty shot in the arm in
keeping up with scheduled prof.
ects in the 12-year program but
at least for the next few years
