New Tranquilizer
‘Cocktail" for Dogs
MORRIS PLAINS, N.J., UP) —
. Dogs may soon be seeing pink
men with the aid of a canine
cocktail developed recently by
the Warner-Chilcott Laboratories
here.
Pix Tal, described as the first
tranquilizer drug produced es
pecially for animals, was devel
oped by the laboratories over the
past 2V4 years.
Dr. Joseph M. Feld, the labora
tories’ director of veterinary med
icine, said that the drug would
affect dogs much as “one or two”
drinks affects humans.
pendent socialism.
Cyrankiewicz, scheduled to fly
to Moscow this week, indicated
that Marshal Konstantin Rokos
sovsky remains in good standing
in the Communist Party, despite
his ouster from the Politburo last
week. He asserted, however, that
in the future Russian troops in
Poland will be restricted exclu
sively to bases granted by treaty.
Rokossovsky, installed by Sta
lin in 1949 as Poland’s defense
minister, has been reported on
the verge of ejection from his of
fice under the new leadership
headed by the once-purged Go
mulka.
"We want to base the relations
between our nations and parties
on the principles of equality and
rid ourselves of anything which
could contradict these principles,”
Cyrafkiewicz said.
In the next few days, he said,
all Russian troops will be sta
tioned exclusively at bases whose
existence stems from internation
al treaties. Reflecting the ever
present Polish fear of German re
unification, Cyrankiewicz added:
"These treaties are dictated by
our security, especially in the face
of German revisionism ”
Germans still lay claim to areas
taken over by the Poles after
World War II.
Cyrankiewicz said members of
the Polish Communist Politburo
will meet with members of the
Soviet Communist Presidium next
week “with the aim of consoli
dating the principle of coopera
tion on the basis of equality, soli
darity, and mutual respect of
rights.”
This meeting apparently was
arranged by telephone with
Khrushchev yesterday. Khrush
chev paid a surprise visit to War
saw Friday at the height of the
anti-Moscow manifestations in the
Polish party shakeup. Now his is
reported to have apologized for
his angry words, for the Soviet
attack on the Polish press and for
evidence of Soviet military pres
sure on the poles.

Rough Weather
Slows Plans for
South Pole Base
AUCKLAND, New Zealand, UP)
—Blizzard conditions and sub
zero temperatures in the antarc
tic are retarding American plans
for air-dropping men and mater
ials at the South Pole to establish
a scientific base
Wind-driven snow on the Mc
Murdo ice landing strip on the
Ross Sea is reducing visibility
enough to force some U.S. Air
Force Globemasters carrying
equipment to turn back to their
Christchurch base.
The U.S. Navy icebreaker Gla
cier is battling thru a 200-mile
barrier of pack ice 1,200 miles
north of McMurdo. First priority
when weather permits is the
building of an intermediate air
strip on Beardmore Glacier en
route to the South 'Pole to aid
Navy aircraft attempting to land
Seabee teams and equipment at
the Pole.
As soon as construction parties
land at the Pole the Globemasters
will begin a major airdrop involv
ing 500 tons of base building gear
and machinery, including a 13,
000-pound tractor
Capt. Leland Bearskin expects
to leave tomorrow for McMurdo
Sound in a Globemaster carrying
most of the key men and execu
tives for the polar airdrop.

Speeches Next Week
In Trips to Six States
WASHINGTON, (*)—1The White
House today announced plans for
six campaign speeches by Presi
dent Eisenhower next week, in
cluding talks in three of the four
southern states h'e carried in 1952.
The President will make three
separate trips. They will take him
into Florida, Virginia, Texas,
Oklahoma, and Pennsylvania.
James C. Hagerty, presidential
press secretary, emphasized the
President will return to Washing
ton at the end of each day.
The President will do that,
Hagerty said, primarily to keep
in close touch with the “fast
breaking developments in the
(Soviet) satellite nations” That
was a reference to the unrest in
such countries as Poland and
Hungary.

Eisenhower Refutes Stevenson’s
Charge of Favoring Big Business
And Attacks Plan to End H-Tests
President Eisenhower and Adlai
Stevenson, without dropping their
H-bomb debate, today picked up
another continuing campaign ar
gument—'big business.
Eisenhower, replying to Steven
son’s repeated proposals that the
United States take the lead in
seeking an end to tests of large
nuclear weapons, said last night it
cannot be done under present
conditions “for the sake of peace
itself.”
Stevenson, speaking in New
York last night, said it is a matter
of moral responsibility as well as
national security that ■ . . we take
the lead in curbing this ghastly
killer,” the hydrogen bomb.
Then, starting a 12-hour series
of rallies in the New York City
area, Stevenson shifted his attack

lican policy of “snuggling inti
macy” toward big corporations.
Stevenson said small business
is being “squeezed by the growing
giants, buffeted by the merger
movement, stangled by high in
terest rates.”
“The Eisenhower Administration
seems to have confused genuine
friendship for business with
snuggling intimacy toward a few
of its giants,” he said. “And mean
while, the big have gotten bigger
and the small are disappearing.”
Eisenhower, addressing a labor
group in Washington last night,
already had produced a statistical
defense of the oft-repeated Demo
cratic charges that his adminis
tration favors big business.

> Russian Tanks, Troops
Called to Fight Rebels
VIENNA, Austria, Wt—M any
hundreds of persons were report
ed killed in an anti-Russian, anti
communist revolution gripping
the Hungarian capital today So
viet tanks and troops went into
action and Communist machine
gunners and warplanes waged a
fierce battle against the rebels.
Direct telephonic communica
tion with the city was cut off, but
it was evident that casualties in
the fighting were mounting by
the score.
A westerner who reached War
saw after traveling from Buda
pest said 150 persons were report
ed to have been killed when Rus
sian tanks were brought into the
fighting outside the Hungarian
Parliament building.
Radio Budapest did not identify
the nationality of the warplanes
engaged in the desperate struggle.
But witnesses arriving in Vienna
said the tanks blazing thru the
war-scarred streets of the Danub
ian capital were Russian.
A desperate Hungarian Com
munist government, unable to
smash the revolt, had called for
help from the thousands of Rus
sian soldiers stationed in the
country.
The fighting swirled thru down
town streets, thru apartment
houses and public building and
thru huge factories.
But despite thd Russian army’s
help, hours passed without the
surrender which the Communist
leaders demanded
The fighting started last night.
As it swung around the clock and
toward early dusk on the Danube,
the Budapest government broad
cast that all citizens must continue
to remain indoors. The order pro
longed a strict curfew from 6 p.m.
today until 6 a.m. tomorrow.
During this time people were
“ordered to remain indoors and
to keep the doors of your houses
locked” The government said
these restrictions were necessary
“because the city has not yet
been fully cleared of counter
revolutionaries.”
Russian tanks by the dozens
were reported rolling thru the
streets and firing on blazing
buildings. Budapest radio report
ed “numerous soldiers, citizens
and members of the security forc
es” were slain in wild, riotous
fighting which burgeoned from
peaceful demonstrations against
Moscow last night.
Budapest radio announced sol
diers had captured a machinery
plant where rebels held out for
three hours. It appealed to wives
and trade unions to dissuade men
from joining the demonstrations.
Indicating the fighting still was
raging into this afternoon in the
city of more than a million, the
new government of Premier Imre
Nagy extended an ultimatum zero
