Eisenhower Tells Nation Congress
Chalked Up Fine Record Toward
Assuring Stronger, Better America
DENVER, Mt—President Eisen-'
hower told the nation’s voters
Monday night the Republican
83rd Congress chalked up a fine
record toward assuring' a strong
er, better America. He urged
them to remember that when they
go to- the polls in the November
congressional elections.
In a nationwide radio and tele
vision address, the President
sounded an optimistic note about
the security of western Europe in
the face of collapse of European
defense army talks at Brussels.
“Don’t be too discouraged,” the
Chief Executive told his coast-to
coast audience. He said the great
statesmen of Europe are his
friends and “they want peace as
much as you and I do.” He added:
“They are not licked yet. And
we are certainly not licked. Let us
not lose faith in them. There is
still something to be done in that
region, and we are going to' do it.”
The rest of Eisenhower’s half
hour address was exclusively a
plug for his administration and
the record of the GOP-run Con
gress which wound up its legis
lative chores last Friday.
His warm praise for the Con
gress—in which Republicans held
only a slim majority over Demo
crats—dealt with enacted legis
lat'o'n which he said would, for
example, cut taxes by nearly 7V4
billion dollars, expand social sec
urity coverage and increase bene
fits, shift present rigid farm price
supports to a system of flexible
props, and provide new weapons
to help defeat Communism and
subversion at home.
He said the White House went
»
to bat 64 times in Congress in
behalf of enactment of adminis
tration measures.
“Now, 54 of them were enacted
into law,” he added. “We did not
always make home runs, but any
way we did have 54 hits. Some of
them aren’t quite all that we
wanted, but that after all is a
batting average of .830, and any
baseball fan will tell you that is
pretty good going in any league.”
(The President’s arithmetic was
off a bit. Actually, on the basis of
his figures, the average was .844.1
American Airlines Pilots
Resume Flights Under
“Truce” Agreement
WASHINGTON, UPV—American
Airlines planes took to the air at
midnight last night for the first
time in 25 days under a “truce”
agreement between the company
and its pilots who struck over
flying longer than eight hours at
a stretch.
Key to the walkout’s end was
agreement to submit the central
issue—westbound transcontinent
al flights lasting more than eight
hours—to a neutral arbitrator.
David L. Cole of Paterson, N.J.,
who was picked to do the job,
was chairman of a board named
by President Truman in 1950 to
settle a wage dispute between
American and its pilots.
Cole’s decision will be binding
on neither American nor the pi
lots. Clarence N. Sayen, president
o'f the AFL Air Line Pilots Assh.,
said the pilots would be free to
strike again if agreement cannot
be reached after arbitration.

Too Many Chiefs, Not
Enough Indians, Russian
Newspaper Complains
WASHINGTON, W>—Isvestia,
official organ of the Kremlin, is
complaining that Soviet bureau
cracy has too many chiefs and not
enough Indians.
A couple of examples from an
Isvestia editorial translated here:
1. Three managers for each
worker in the ministry of auto
mobile, tractor and agricultural
machine building.
2. Several sections of 21 mana
gers and seven employes at a
regional industrial department.
Among instances of red tape,
Isvestia deplored this one:
A survey of the Russian timber
industry in which 118 forms asked
such questions as: “How many
days off, holidays and sick days
did the horses have?”
