OUR UNSUNG LEADERS OF YOUTH
Opening of schools finds more than 2,500,000
youngsters taking their seats in the bands and orches
tras that are now a basic part of school life. These boys
and girls are the favored children of America, for they
not only will be gaining the blessings of music in their
lives—they will be gaining the influence of those anon
ymous builders of.fine citizens, the bandmasters.
Too much attention is given to the small percent
age of young people who find destructive outlets for
their creative urge. Far more of our young people are
learning to direct this urge and to enrich their lives
with it—under thie patient, friendly and firm guidance
of the men and women who direct not only the music
but the development of their students.
According to the Selmer Music Research Center,
there will be more than 60,000 bands and orchestras in
our schools this year. Each will be under the guidance
of a man or woman who is a teacher, a musician, a con
fidant, a leader, and ap organizer for many young peo
ple in their formative years—all on a modest teacher’s
salary.
America can be thankful for these selfless band
masters who are making certain that the next genera
tion will be worthy of leadership and capable of living
happy lives. _ _

' Had No Deaths and Less
Damage Than in 1955
SEATTLE, UP—The return of
| the landing ship Morgan County
| to Seattle Sept. 12 will complete
the second year of the arctic sup
ply mission to the Distant Early
Warning line, with no deaths or
serious injuries attributed to the
hazardous operation, the Navy
; reports.
Forty-nine of the 54 ships in
this year’s task force suffered
some damage to hull or equip
ment. But the first such compre
hensive report on such accidents
said:
“The significant reduction in
the number of groundings and
casualties to rudders and hulls,
compared to 1955 operations, is
noteworthy.”

Campaign Plans

ability to deal with the situation
the federal government had better
be very careful about moving in.
He deplored the violence which
has cropped up in a few sections
with the reopening of schools in
the South.
The situation, Eisenhower said,
is that under the Constitution he
is bound by the court’s decision
and will do his best to see that it
is carried out.
Eisenhower was told that Dem
ocratic Gov. Allan Shivers of
Texas had said his position is one
of defiance of the Supreme Court.
The President replied that he
would not discuss this.
COLD WAH—In fighting the
cold war against Communism, the
free world is stronger now than
it was when he took office in Jan
uary of 1953. Eisenhower said.
That was in response to a com
ment on assertions elsewhere that
the United States is losing the
cold war.
The best way to evaluate the
situation, Eisenhower said, is to
take a look at the world picture
more than three years ago and to
compare it with the current out
look.
POLITICS—The President de
scribed his press secretary, James
C. Hagerty, as an intelligent, able
man doing a good job so far as he
is concerned.
Eisenhower’s praise for Hagerty
came when a reporter noted that
Hagerty yesterday accused the
Democrats, under presidential
nominee Adlai Stevenson, of ap
parently welcoming unemploy
ment in the United States in order
to try to win a few votes.
NIXON’S FATHER DIES,1
EISENHOWER SENDS
CONDOLENCES
WHITTIER, Calif., M—Frank
Nixon, father of Vice President
Richard M. Nixon, died at his
home last night with his family
at his bedside. He was 77.
Death came quietly to the for
mer grocer. He struggled for
nearly two weeks against a com
bination of crucial ailments, and
then, realizing that the end was
near, calmly arranged his own
funeral services.
The vice president, his two
brothers, Edward and F. Donald,
and their mother, Mrs. Hannah
Nixon, 71, were at the elder Nix
on’s side when he died.
“The news of the passing of
Frank A. Nixon, father of the
vice president, is sad news in
deed. I know how much the vice
president will miss him. Mrs.
Eisenhower and I extend to the
vice president and all members of
his family our heartfelt sym
pathies.”

Political Leaders Beamed Appeals
Over the Weekend to Labor Votes
By the Associated Press
President Eisenhower, A d 1 a i
Stevenson, former President Har
ry Truman, top AFL-CIO leaders
and high administration officials
all beamed presidential election
year appeals at the “working
man” Monday.
The torrent of Labor Day
speeches, statements and statistics
emphasized the importance both
major parties attach to the labor
vote in the November election.
Economy 'Never Higher'
Eisenhower made public a La
bor Day report from Secretary of
Labor Mitchell saying the level of
the nation’s economy “has never
been higher in peace or war”
than it is now.
The statement said employment
had increased by 5Vfe million
workers during the Eisenhower
Administration, and the average
take-home pay of the American
factory worker by more than
Sen. Bible and Rep. Young
Will Race for Nevada
Seat in U.S. Senate
RENO, UP)—Democratic Sen. Al
an Bible and Republican Rep.
Clifton Young will tussle for a
Nevada Senate seat next Novem
ber as a result of yesterday’s pri
mary election.
Young, 33, had a free ride in his
bid for the GOP nomination to
graduate into the Senate. The 46
year-old Bible crushed his three
opponents by almost 4-1. Two
years ago, Bible was elected to
complete the late Sen. Pat McCar
ran’s term.
Young decided to try for the
Senate only after Bible announced
last winter he was quitting poli
tics. The senator later changed
his mind.

for taxes and cost of living in
creases.
'Ugly Patches of Poverty'
Adlai Stevenson fired a charge
that “ugly patches of poverty and
insecurity” still affect almost one
out of five American families.
In Washington, GOP National
Chairman Leonard Hall contented
himself with pointing to the glow
ing Mitchell statement. “Who does
Adlai think he is kidding?” Hall
asked.
Truman blasted the GOP in
three separate Milwaukee ap
pearances. He called for the elec
tion of Stevenson so that “the
men and women of labor will be
given their rightful place at the
family table,” and "once again
we will have a government . . .
interested in the welfare of all
the people.”
Reuther Attacks GOP
Walter Reuther, president of
the United Automobile Workers,
loosed a wide-ranging attack
against the GOP in a nationwide
radio address. Reuther spoke of
“part-time presidents” and “rub
ber stamp congresses.”
George Meany, president of the
big AFL-CIO, followed with an
address on another network and
an appeal for the election of “lib
eral majorities” in both houses
of Congress.
The powerful AFL-CIO Execu
tive Council has recommended
that the 15 million members of
the AFL-CIO vote for Stevenson
and Estes Kefauver.
