Nixon Flying
ToHawaii for
Quick Tour
Charges Kennedy
Paid Price, for
Labor Support

LOS ANGELES. Aug. 8 (AP) i.
Vice President Nixon few his
campaign to Hawaii today after
charging his opposition paid
with the Democratic platform
for the support of labor union
leaders.
The Republican presidential
nominee and Mrs. Nixon board
ed their chartered plane before
dawn for a history-making po-
litical trip to the mid-Pacific
islands that make up the 50th
State.
Mr.. Nixon will be the first
presidential candidate to take
the trail for votes IN Hawaii.
His decision to make the trip
gets him in ahead of Senator
Kennedy, the Democratic con-
tender, who plans to hop to
both both Hawaii and Alaska
around the first of next month.
HerO's Welcome
At the end Of the first day of
his hurry-up campaign tour to
the West Coast and Hawaii,
Mr.. Nixon was accorded a re-
turning hero'S welcome at
Whittier College. his alma
mater. This was his third elec-
tion-year homecoming to the
college in his home town, 20
miles from Los Angeles.
Hundreds of townspeople ap-
plauded as Mr.. Nixon's motor
cade went by. and a crowd of
at least 10000 packed the little
stadium where Mr.. Nixon
played on Whittier's football
squad as a substitute tackle.
In his speech Mr.. Nixon said
that keeping the peace with
out surrendering principle" is
the foremost responsibility Of a
President. The Eisenhower sd-
ministration. he said. is keep
ing America strong, not be-
cause it wants war, but because
I'VE know this is the way to
avoid war"
Policy of Firmness
He held to a policy of firm
ness without engaging in a
war of words in dealing with
nations that threaten the
peace. He also said the United
States wants the fact of dis

Secretary Of Defense Gates is
not reaching for the panic but
ton. but he clearly has decided
that more money can be spent
on defense now to good ad-
vantage.
He is helped in his decisions
by encouraging progress in
weapon development-the three
out of four successful firings
in the past few days of the
submarine-carried Polaris mis-
sile, for instance.
No Clamp-DOwn by Gates
It is reported from service
sources that Mr.. Gates has
listened with sympathy to
requests that part Of the extra
money voted for defense by
Congress this year and laid
aside by the President, be
spent. He has not pointed to
the hitherto rigid spending
ceiling and told the services
they must stick to it.
Instead. the services say, he
has asked the White House to
consider release of about $500
million of the extra 81 billion
available. White House sources
and Senate Minority Leader
DirkSen; = indicate the Presi-
dent, himself isFawilling. to
obligate more funds, though
his exact decision has not been
made in detail.
Part of the new spending
would go for a step-up of the
Polaris program. Another deci-
sion already made is that two
more attack aircraft carriers

should be kept at forward posts
at all times.
The Navy cannot build the
carriers tomorrow, but it has
been told by the Joint Chiefs
of Staff. with Mr.. Gates con-
currence, to postpone for a
year the retirement of two old
attack carriers now in service.
This will permit at least three
carriers to be in the Mediter-
ranean and Pacific at all times
filling in a gap that would
have existed while the Navy
waited for two new supercar-
riers to be ready for service
next year.
Army and AF Outlook
Army sources say their
chances are looking good to-
day for Defense Department
and White House approval of
more money for personnel and
modernization.

Will take over from Belgian

In Leopoldville, q U. N.
spokesman declared the troops

OF the provincial regimes
stand.
Our troops are going into
Katanga as planned on Satur-
day." the U. N. spokesman
said.
Major Concession
The decision to send a U. N.
task force into Katanga rep
resented a major concession
to demands OF the central
Congo government for an i'm
mediate end to the secession
of the copper-,ich province,
which supplied 80 per cent e.
the wealth OF the former
Belgian colony.
The firm stand of the U. N.
Congo Command in the face
of Mr.. Tshombe's threat was
greeted with grim approval by
the Congolese government.
The Katanga radio broadcast
orders for all men to report for
mobilization. Mr.. Tshombe said
he has support of tribal chiefs
in the decision to mobilize. He
charged that a U. N. entry
would constitute aggression.
The Premier's threat of a
fight was discounted by Bel
gian authorities in Elisabeth
vile, who noted that his cur
rent military forces are slim. A
general mobilization, however.
would stir up provincial feeling,
whatever its effect on the mill
tary picture.

by their host, costumed in satin
