Senator Says

ALLENTOWN, Pa. Oct. 3
(AP).-Senator Clark, Demo-
crat Of Pennsylvania. said to-
night the Eisenhower admin
istration's fiscal policies stunt
the Nations growth instead of
rising to the Soviet challenge.
In a speech prepared for a
dinner meeting Of Lehigh
County Democrats. Senator
Clark said that never in our
history has an administration
prated so much about fiscal
soundness and fiscal RESPONSE
bility and practiced policies so
unsound and irresponsible"
Accusing Republican leaders
Of a timid approach, he said,
their policies are not designed
for an economy Of growth but
for an economy of constric-
ton" adding:
"And If Khrushchev says,
We will bury you,' they say in
effect, Go right ahead; we're
doing the best we can"
Senator Clark said the pres
ent administration has Just
one answer for every proposal
for aid to education, for meas
ures to expand the economy
and for pressing forward with
space research and that is:
I'VE can't afford it,"

also in helping people who are
hungry, out of work, sick or
without means of getting an
education or the skills needed
to support themselves.
While no able-bodied man
should seek Government aid as
a substitute for work, the Gov

who cannot provide for them
selves.
In its discussion Of civil
rights the committee said: mo
law can alter a state of mind,
but if the rule of law is to

Radio Balloon
Is Tested in
Eye Of Storm

MIAMI, Oct. 3 (APl.-A free
floating balloon carrying a
radio transmitter has been in
the eve Of Hurricane Hannah
for more than "a hours. It
may represent a break-through
in development of a new hurri-
cane tracking technique.
Cecil Gentry, director of the
National Hurricane Research
Project, said the beacon balloon
was dropped into the calm
storm center early yesterday by
an Air Force plane flying out of
Bermuda.
A hurricane hunter plane
that flew into Hannah this
morning found the beacon still
floating in the eye. A similar
balloon dropped into the eye
Thursday descended into the
ocean after six hours.
Further experimentation in
other hurricanes will need to
be done before the beacon can
be considered operational," Mr..
Gentry said.
IF future experiments prove
that free-f1oating balloons will
remain in the eye of a hurri-
cane, it will be possible to track
future storms from shore-based
radio stations with radio direc-
ton finding equipment"

ties that for years pitched the
heirs Of the late Huey p. Long
against the anti-Iongs.
In 1882, the man who was
governor then-pro- Eisenhow-
er Robert Kennon-a Demo-
crat, raised the cry that the
national Democratic Party too
long had taken Louisiana for
granted. Louisiana didn't bolt
then-but it did four years
later.
Although Louisiana still is
not a two-party state" Mr..
Gravel said, "it has political
fiexibility in national politics
now. In state politics. it's still
just a pendulum state, swing

It added:
Democrats voted against
cutting the budget by a margin
of four to one. Republicans
voted to reduce spending by

The committee said one of
the principal spending issues
in the next Congress will re-
volve around action on a $500
million water pollution bill
passed by both Houses but left
hanging in a Senate House
conference committee when
Congress adjourned until Janu-
airy.
The policy committee listed
four measures which already
have passed the Senate and
are pending in the House-bills
to set up a youth conservation
corps which the G. o. P. said
would cost SO billion in 10
years, a 1889 million aid-to-
depressed-areas bill, and meas
ures to finance international
medical research and provide
for educational television grants.
The committee also cited a
school construction measure
pending in the Senate which it
said would cost a billion dol
lars, and a measure in the
House for juvenile delinquency
grants.

Senator Morton said the re-

be turned over to those draft
ing the party's 1860 platform.
The committee steered a
careful middle course and the
principles it set out seemed
largely in line with the views
often expressed by Mr.. Eisen-
hover.
Faith in and concern for
Americans as individuals" the
preface sets forth, prompts
the Republican Party to resist
Governments intrusion into
the affairs of men in every
walk of life. For Governmental
paternalism carries a price tag
the surrender Of the indvid-
uars right to order his own
life, to plan his own future"
1t said Republicans believe
in central Government "vigi-
lantly alert to the needs of the
people" and strong enough to
defend the people, to help
keep the economy in balance
and to make sure that a life
OF dignity is within reach of
every American.
The committee charted a
Republican course in four
major areas-science and tech
nology, national security and
peace, human rights and needs,
and economic opportunity and
progress
Some of its observations in
these areas included:
Science and TechnOlOgy-The
Government has a RESPONSE
bility to provide leadership in
this area-and an equal re-
Sponsibility to keep science free
of the RECOMMENDATION and po-
litical control that can thwart
the quest for truth.
National Security and Peace
Republicans stand for the
strongest necessary military
strength" and simultaneous
efforts on all fronts to build
peace with justice. However,

time America is challenged by

Budget Heads
COP. Issues
By the Associated Press

Senate Republicans picked
budget balancing yesterday as
the big issue for the next ses-
sion of Congress in anticipa-
ton of making it one of their
chief 1860 campaign appeals.
In a memorandum to all
G. o. P. members, the Senate
Republican Policy Committee
staff cited seven Democratic
sponsored proposals it said
would mean OUTLAWS Of nearly
SIS billion. The memo said
these will figure prominently
in a new battle of the budget
beginning in January.
Calling budget balancing a
vitality necessary achievement,
the policy committee said that
in the 1859 session the Re-
publicans proved themselves to
be the savers and the Demo-
Gratis the spenders. Democrats
have disputed that.
The memorandum cited what
it called IA key Senate roll

with Bell and Howell after his
graduation.
He has been with the camera
company ever since except for
a tour of duty with the Navy
in World War II, serving in
various capacities. In 1949, on
the death of Mr.. McNabb. he
was named president.
Associates credit much of his
success with his ability to get
along with people. For all his
drive, it was explained, he has
a relaxed manner. Either he
has no temper, or he has learn
ed to control it better than any
man I ever saw" said one man
who has worked closely with
him.
Having a goal is what
counts" Mr.. Percy once said in
discussing his business activi-
ties.
Since the political accent is
now on youth, some in the Re-
publican hierarchy wish Mr..
Percy would turn his goal from
business to politics-and run
for high Office in Illinois.
So far, Mr.. Percy has indi-
Gated no intention of doing SO.

Russia Visit

BOISE. Idaho, oct. 8 (AP)
-Thruston Morton, Republic
can National Chairman, said
today President Eisenhower's
visit to Russia next spring
could have considerable politi-
cal Importance.
IF it comes of WE'LL" Mr..
Morton told newsmen. ut may
be a political asset to the Re-
publicans. But If 1t comes of

way"
He said Soviet Premier
X hrush c h ev's tour of the
United States would have no
significant effect upon the 1860
campaign because 1t did not
become a partisan issue.
Mr.. Morton briefed Idaho
Republicans today on a.. swing
through the State, with a
breakfast session at Lewiston,
q luncheon at Boise and a din
ner at Idaho Falls.
In his addresses he urged
COP. workers to mobilize for
victory in the 1860 campaign,
a victory he described as "a

tinue to have the kind of coun-

The Kentucky senator said.
IF ever there was q need for
unity within the Republican
Party it is now" He did not
further elaborate on this theme
but said the COPS bitterest
defeats in the past have been
"those in which we beat our
selves"
Mr.. Morton said "the people
of the United States clearly
want a sound dollar, a tight
rein>on government spending
and a balanced budget"

HEADLINE, PERSONALITY
Percy Aiding COP;
Ideo-o-Minute'. Man

Charles Harting Percy, chief
architect Of the Republican
statement Of principles being
released this week. Is a prodi-
gious worker credited with hav-
ing IAN idea a minute"
The 40-year-old Chicago
business executive. president Of
Bell g. Howell, camera makers,
likes to start work with a con-
ference at breakfast. At mid
night or / am, he may be still
going strong.
Mr.. Percy, known to his
friends as Chuck" represents
the young man in a hurry, He
has been phenomenally success
full in business-and he seems
to have made a great success
too in the excursions he has
made thus far into politics. At
least, the political pros think
so.
An associate who worked with
him on the Republican Com
mittee on Program and Progress
said Mr.. Percy was still churn-
ing up ideas as the report went
to the printer. Very much the
same drive brought him to the
presidency Of Bell g. Howell
at the relatively tender business
age of 20. 1t has also marked
his labors for the Republican
Party and other interests, such
as the Fund for Adult Educa-
ton. which attracted his efforts.
Four Jobs at One Time
Mr.. Percy came to the at
tention of the Republican high
command a couple Of years
ago when he took charge of
raising party finances in Illi-
noiS. He was as successful in
prying money loose from the
more opulent givers as well as
those of more moderate means
as he has been in getting orders
for his company.
He has a singular devotion
to work and explains it rather
casually. : 1--WE worked since I
was this high" he is wont to
say. indicating an area gener-
ally in the neighborhood Of his
knee.
He was born in Pensacola,
Fla, and started selling maya
zines in Chicago just about the
time he was ready for the first
grade. In high school he once
held four jobs at once besides
keeping up his studies.
He continued that pace at
the University of Chicago
where he engaged in such side
pursuits as supplying univer-
sity residences and fraternity
houses with food, coal, furni-
ture and linen.

.Fair|ess Tells
Steel Plants
To Moderniize

NEW YORK, May 20 (AP)
Steel industry leaders we're
told today they must modern
ize their plants and cut costs
II they are to survive In an era
Of bare-knuckles competition.
The warning was sounded by
Benjamin F. Fairless. president
of the American Iron g. Steel
Institute, in a talk prepared for
the Institutes 9th general
meeting.
Competition, is rising" he
said. Imports of foreign-made
steel are now greater than the
amount of American steel be-
ing exported"
Steelworkers, Mr.. Fairless
said, ARE feeling the effects
in the form of fewer hours Of
work. Some have lost their
jobs"
American steelworkers are
among the highest paid indus
trial employees in the world, ("
he continued. II am glad that
they are. I am in favor of
high wages but I don't want to
see American steelworkers price
themselves out of the markets"
Mr.. Fairless said foreign steel
producers have modernized
their plants to a point where
their technology compares
favorably with our own" but
their wages are FAR lower"
Steel, he said, also faces stiff
competition from rival mate
rails produced at home, notably
aluminium, glass, plywood and
pre-stressed concrete" a for
midable group Of competitors
indeed"

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, May 2s tAP).-Reports
OF harvest delays and spreading pant
disease steadied wheat futures price.
today in early dealings on the Board
Of Trade, but other grains and soy
beans weakened.
Advices from the Southwest said
that rains had kept combines out OF
winter wheat fields now ready for har-
vest and that plant disease in some
parts Of Kansas was reported as high
as 80 per cent in fields that had been
examined during the past few days.
Increased cash corn receipts and
reports of more liberal country sellins
caused more LIQUIDATION of that grain,
Soybeans also were under selling
pressure.
