President Spikes Talk
Of His Resignation !,
Denies Plan
Is Afoot to
Push Nixon
BY GOULD LINCOLN
Star star Writer

President Eisenhower told
his press conference today that
the selection of a Republican
presidential candidate in 1850
is up to the party. He added:
There are a lot Of darn
good men who could be
chosen" He did not name
them.
The President made this
statement, interpreted as mean
that the field is wide open,
when he was asked whether he
intended to use his influence
to bring about the nomination
OF a candidate - presumably
Vice President Nixon, although
his questioner did not use Mr..
Nixon's name.
The President also emphati-
cally denied published rumors
that he would resign before the
end of his term and permit
Mr.: Nixon to become President.
The Chief Executive, speak
ing with strong feeling, said
that when he agreed to run
for a second term and was
elected, "he conceived that he
had a duty TO perform" He
said that he would never re-
linquish the presidency or cease
to perform his duty as long az
he is physically able.
Resignation Rumored
The published reports have
been to the effect that most
Of the Democrats in Washing.
ton believe there Is o definite
understanding between the
President and Mr.. Nixon, which
will result in the resignation
Of the President and the eleva-
ton Of Mr.. Nixon to the presi-
dency some time between now
and the end Of the Presidents
term.
The suggestion also has
been made that this would
take place early enough to as
sure Mr.. Nixon the preSiden-
tial nomination in the summer
Of 1860. The theory is that If
Mr.. Nixon is serving as Presi-
dent and actually in the WhitST
House. he could not ke denied
the nomination at the @. o. P.'s
national convention. Also it
has been suggested in these
reports that Mr.. Eisenhower
will, in offering his resignation,
say that the burdens Of the
Office he holds have become
too great for his strength.

so R.-Premier Djuanda
charged today that United
States and Chinese Nationalist
adventures are flying rebel
bombers and tighter planes.
The rebels claimed their planes
bombed a RuSsian-supplied
troop transport.
The attack on the ship was
the latest strike reported in
the sudden upsurge in the air
war by rebels in North Celebes.
Mr.. Djuanda said there
would be disastrous effects on
United States-Indonesian rela-
tons II the United States did
not stop its ciizens from flying
rebel missions. Unied States
Ambassador Howard P. Jones
declined to comment imme-
diately.
The North Celebes rebels said
their planes attacked the ship
yesterday in the Strait Of Ma
kassar as 1t headed for Dong
gala in Central Celebes with
troops. The ship apparently Is
one Of several turned over by
the Russians last month. The
rebel broadcast did not 60 into
details on the attack.
New Offensive Reported
In Singapore, reliable
sources said the rebels had
launched an air offensive
called "Jakarta No. /" and
that it continued in intensity
today. They mentioned no
new strikes, however,
When the rebels opened their
war in February they had no
planes. but it is now believed in
Jakarta they have at least four
BIG bombers and two Mustang
fighters. Rebel planes since
Monday have raided Kendari
on the Celebes East Coast, and
at targets in East Borneo and
Halmahera island.
At the East Borneo port Of
Balikpapan. the IL .278-ton Brit
ish tanker San Flaviana was
bombed and badly damaged.
The rebels also claimed the
capture Of the World War II

assault.

posing President Sukarno's
government with the necessity

MIR. Djuanda demanded that
the United States prevent its
nationals from selling arms,
planes, ships or any other vital
material to the rebels and from
helping them in any other way.
He also warned that aid to the
rebels from Formosa might re-
suit in retaliation against pro-
Nationalist Chinese living in
1ndonesia.
The Premier asserted that

ANoAaNhk A1As1CAAAAONCA ohAQ
today new Government figures
on employment reflect contin-
uing evidence that the business
recession Is fiattening out.
The President expressed his
views at a news conference at
which he emphasized again
that the administration is still
holding on q decision on cut
ting taxes.
Mr.. Eisenhower was asked II
the unemployment and employ
ment figures released by the
Commerce Department yester-
day indicated that this was the
beginning Of an upturn in bust
ness.
The President replied that he
did not think one could make
that as a categorical statement,
since the figures. seasonally ad-
justed, were not wholly favor
able.
Unemployment Dips
The Commerce Department
reported that unemployment in
the Nation declined from mid
March to mid-April by $4,000,
from 5,l98. 900 to 5.l20, 900.
While this reversed a steady
rise in the number Of joblesS
which began. last November.
the reduction was much less
than normal Tor this time Of
the year. Normally, unemploy-
ment drops between 800, 900
and $4,000 in the comparable
period.
The Commerce figures showed
q rise In employment Of $685.
900 to a total Of 62,s0T. 900.
This was due to a seasonal
increase in the labor force,
largely from housewives and
students. the department said.
- No Action on Taxes
Mr.. Eisenhower was asked II
the time was approaching for
a decision on cutting taxes. In
reply, he said that a tax cut
in itself would not revitalize
the economy.
Paradoxically, although un-
employment declined. the re-
port said the percentage of
jobleSs persons increased from
2 per cent in March to a post
war high Of ia per cent in
April on a seasonally adjusted
basis, which takes into account
a number Of statistical factors.
Despite the surge in employ
ment, there was no letup in
the demand for vigorous anti
recession action.
AFL-CIO President George
Meany. referring especially to
the less than normal drop in
unemployment, said the report
proves the recession "contin-
ues to worsen.
Mr.. Meany. calling anew for
prompt antirecession legisla-
ton. said:
Democrats Ask Tax Cut
Immediate action to i'm
prove and extend unemploy-
ment compensation and to cut
taxes on low and middle In
come individuals is essential
if America is to be put back
to work"
In a similar vein. the Demo-
cratic Advisory Council urged a
tax cut Of more than So billion

Defense considerably greater
latitude in distributing among
the separate services the funds
appropriated by Congress.
Gen. Taylor said he did not
believe such a provision would
be abused or hamper opera
tons Of the separate services.
He added. however. that II
would prefer to preserve the
identity Of Army appropria-
tons because I think we need
to know exactly what funds we
can depend on"
Seeks 10 End Confusion
At the outset Of his testimony
today, Gen. Taylor sought to
clear up some confusion that
developed yesterday when he
was asked about an April 3 di-
receive by President Eisenhower
removing the separate service
secretaries from the chain Of
command. He had said he re-
ceived no such directive. He
explained today that he was in
formed the directive has not
officially been issued and must
await enactment of provisions
contained in the pending bill.

Elroy and Gen. Nathan p.

Chiefs Of Stan had told the
committee previously about the
order revising the chain Of COM

from the separate services.

could happen but was highly
unlikely.
When Gen. Taylor returned
for further questioning by the
committee. he was asked spe-
ciflcally how much of an OPP
portunity he had as Army
Chief Of Staff to take part in
preparing the proposed legisla-
ton. Members also wanted to
know in detail whether he had
voiced disagreement against
any proposal in preliminary
conferences on the plan for
greater Capitalization and
streamlined command control
in the Defense Department.
No Further Protest
He replied that he had ex-
pressed disagreement with the
provision concerning the pro-
posed ban on separate service
ofticials going to Congress with
out permission. He added, how
ever. that although he felt this
would be "unwise" he did not
protest further after it was in
cluded in the bill.
