hover said.
He came to the luncheon
from wreath laying ceremonies
at military cemeteries for
American and Filipino World
War II veterans on the OUT
skirts of Manila.
Awarded Degree
Mr.. Eisenhower started out
his last day in Manila with a
speech before 1000 cheering
students at the University of
the Philippines. 1t was typi-
cal of the warm reception he
has received in his Manila visit.
He predicted that tens of
millions of people under Com
munism would eventually win
freedom.
They will not eternally re-
main chained to the mastery
Of other men," the President
declared.
Mr.. Eisenhower was awarded

Philippine Defense

Khrushchev's role in wrecking
the parley, Mr.. Eisenhower
said:
SCommuniSt intransigency at
the conference table, whenever
they do agree to sit at one,
makes the attainment Of an
equitable agreement difficult.
Moreover. the record of Com
munist violations is long. The
continuation of Com m unist
provocationS, subversion and
terrorism while negotiations are
under way serves only to con-
found the difficulty of arriving
at peaceful settlements"
Mr.. Eisenhower said that
some tyrannical governments
ARE blatant in their boasts of
eventual supremacy over con-
tinents and even the world;
constant in their boast that
eventually they will bury all the
systems of freedom"
Willing to Negotiate
The President assured his
listeners that this Communist
boast will never come true, de-
claring, "even in the lands that
Communists now master with
an iron rule, the eternal aspi-
rations Of humanity cannot be
forever suppressed"
Mr.. Eisenhower pledged anew
that the United States Shall
never close the door to peace
full negotiations" with the Com
munist nations.
He also declared once more
that he is convinced that the
arms race and nuclear menace
can be brought under control
without appeaSement or sur
render, by continuing a course
of patient, reSourceful and
businesslike dealings with the
Soviet leaders"
The President said further:
I'VE shall continue to make
1t clear that reason and COM
mon sense must prevail over
SenseleSs antagonism and dis
