Nixon Agrees
With Eisenhower
On Vice Presidency
WASHINGTON, —“Exactly
right” is Vice President Nixon’s
word for the short-of-endorse
ment commendation which Presi
dent Eisenhower has given him.
says Chairman Leonard W. Hall
of the Republican National Com
mittee.
The GOP chairman, talking
with reporters at the White House
after a 30-minute conference with
Eisenhower Monday, said Nixon
had told him that “a couple of
times.”
Last week Eisenhower said he
had told Nixon to “chart his own
course and tell me what he would
like to do.”
Eisenhower has made the point
that picking a vice presidential
nominee customarily waits on the
selection of a choice for President.
Hall said he and Eisenhower
did not discuss the question of
whether Nixon should be his run
ning mate again.
For himself, Hall repeated what
he has been saying all along—that
he assumes the ticket will be Eis
enhower and Nixon.

U.S. and Soviet
CKurchmen Differ
In Formal Talks
MOSCOW, (£1—A delegation of
American clergymen and Patri
arch Alexei ran into differences
at the opening of their formal
talks Tuesday over how much
time they should devote t6 discus
sing the role of the churches in
the struggle for peace.
The visitors, headed by Dr. Eu
gene Carson Blake of Philadel
phia, found themselves entangled
with the head of the Russian Or
thodox Church in a procedural
wrangle of a type which has
plagued most postwar Western
negotiations with the Russians.
The peace topic was up for dis
cussion Tuesday. The white
bearded, elaborately robed patri
arch found this much to his liking
and said he probably would want
to talk on the same subject today.
But Dr. Blake, president of the
U.S. National Council of Church
es, objected. His 10-man group
has a packed program for the re
maining eight days of the visit.
“We have agreed to a seven
point agenda and the members of
our delegation came prepared to
discuss all points,” said Dr. Blake.
“Tomorrow we planned to discuss
the freedom of churches to fulfill
their mission.”
The official Russian Orthodox
view is that all churches should
join the Communist-backed World
Peace Council and align them
selves with petitions for an un
conditional ban, as proposed by
Soviet leaders, on atomic and
thermonuclear weapons.
