Eisenhower and
Candidates Stump
New York Area
BY JACK BELL

NEW YORK, Up = President
Eisenhower took to the political
hastings with Vice President Nix
on and Henry Cabot Lodge today
in a dramatic late-campaign bid
to help them capture metropolitan
votes.
The group teamed for the first
time at campaign rallies spread
over wide area in and around
New York City. Their fast-paced
hop, skip and jump tour was by
helicopter.
The appearance of the Presi-
dent and the COP candidates for
president and vice president in
suburban spots, plus later gather
ings in Manhattan, was obviously
an effort to garner as many stray
vote as possible to offset the great
Democratic weight in New York
City.
Eisenhower told throng gath
cred in the sunny but windy out
door area of Roosevelt Field that
Nixon and Lodge offer the nation
"the finest type of leadership to-
day that is available to the ma
ton"
The President said that the two
nominees "can do better than
anyone else toward keeping the
peace and toward lifting
from the backs of mankind the
burden of armament"
Then in a thrust at Kennedy
the President added:
'No glittering promises, no
glib oratory will give you this
kind of leadership"
Nixon cited the accomplish
ments of the Eisenhower admins
tration and said eve (Nixon and
LODGE have been with him when
the great decisions were made,
and we must take responsibility
for them and we do So"

Sen. Kennedy
In California
By GEoFFREY GOULD

LOS ANGELES, R-Sen. John
Kennedy today pledged that next
year a Democratic Congress and
President will enact a bill to
raise teacher salaries"
The presidential candidate also
said: zone of the first items on
the Democratic agenda in 1861 is
the passage of an adequate bill
for school construction"
He outlined these promises and
others in the education field in
talk prepared for "Key to Vic
tory" breakfast, before hopping
south to San Diego and then
north to San Jose and San Fran
cisco.
A new and hooking note to-
ward Vice President Richard M.
Nixon again entered Kennedy's
tone yesterday, Kaleidoscope
day that brought him here from
the east coast for mammoth
downtown motorcade at noon.
AS he did the day before, Ken
nedy tainted Nixon for bringing
President Eisenhower into the
campaign in the closing days be-
fore the election next Tuesday
At a rally in Long Beach, Ken
nedy said: "Mr. Eisenhower is not
candidate. Mr.. Nixon is. And if
he can't stand up to the American
people, if he won't come and meet
me in fifth debate, how is he
going to stand up to Mr.. Khrush-
chew"
Kennedy issued statement
saying the administrations deci-
sion to release an additional $155
million for development of the
BIO supersonic bomber was a
transparent political maneuver."
"That the Republican admins
tration waits until a week before
the election to release the funds
speaks for ITSELF" Kennedy said.
