" THE CHAPERON
Leavenworth (Wash.) Echo (Rep.) says: Sylvia
Porter, the syndicated writer on business trends, re
cently pointed out that for three years the purchasing
power of the dollar has changed very little. This, she
said, is “a price phenomenon that has few parallels in
the 20th Century.”
Then she gave an excellent bit of implied advice:
“We need not hesitate to buy in anticipation of sharply
lower prices. We need not rush to the stores in fear
of soaring, prices.”
In other words, we should buy normally. There’s
an abundance of every kind of ware. Retail competi
tion assures us that we get the best possible return
for our money. Barring a major conflagration, most
economists expect that situation to continue.
Dulles Lists Signs
Of Red Chinese
Aggression
WASHINGTON, UPC- Secretary
of State Dulles declared Thursday
that Communist China is showing
an aggressive intent in Asia which
belies its protestations of peace.
It was against this menace that
the United States and seven other
nations signed the Manila Pact
two months ago, he told the Sen
ate Foreign Relations Committee
in calling for approval of the
agreement.
Dulles ticked off places and sit
uations which he said showed Red
China’s “aggressive intent.”
Among these he listed:
1. Existence of a “free Thai”
movement inside China, just over
the border from Thailand.
2. Doubling since the Geneva
Conferences of Vietminh forces
in the portion of Indochina that
are claimed by the Communists.
3. Domination by the Commu
nists of two provinces in northern
Laos.
4. Vigorous efforts to Comrnu
nize the Chinese in Singapore.
5. Maintenance in China’s Yu
nan Province, “where there cer
tainly is no risk of attack,” a
large armed force of Red Chinese.

Report Ike Will
Run In '56 Labeled
As “Nonsense”
TOLEDO, Ohio, OP) — President
Eisenhower’s press secretary to
day labeled as “a lot of nonsense”
a published report that the chief
executive had promised Republi
can leaders he would run for re
election in 1956.
The secretary, James C. Hag
erty, was referred to a story in
the Akron (Ohio) Beacon Journal.
Political writer Clyde Mann
wrote in today’s Beacon Journal
he was informed Eisenhower
made such a promise to GOP
leaders at a White House meet
ing shortly after last week’s elec
tions in which Republicans lost
control of Congress to the Demo
crats.
“It’s a lot of nonsense,” Hag
erty told newsmen. “There was
no such meeting.”
Hagerty was asked about the re
port as the President was hunt
ing duck near Toledo on Lake
Erie.
Mann said in his story:- “At
the meeting, party leaders told
the President the- party would be
without leadership if the Presi
dent decided to retire . . .
“Party leaders attributed the
GOP loss of the House and Senate
to more than just the traditional
off-year election dosses).”
Mann said the story of the GOP
loss of the meeting was obtained
from a person very close to the
President, and added “several
members of the President’s per
sonal staff will be replaced soon
with persons skilled in the art of
practical politics.”
The political writer said, how
ever, this definitely will not in
clude presidential assistant Sher
man Adams, who, he added, will
continue on as an extremely im
portant member of the President’s
advisory staff.

Airport “Kissing Room”
No Source of Revenue,
City Councilmen Agree
PHILADELPHIA, W)—A “kiss
ing room” may be a fine, romantic
thing for an airport but the city’s
budget makers can’t “see any
source of revenue from such an
operation.”
Philadelphia’s aviation director,
Louis R. Inwood, wanted to in
clude such a facility in the budget
for International Airport after
hearing reports from Mexico on
the success of an airport “kissing
room.”
In budget hearings Wednesday,
Rhee Tightens the Reins
SEOUL,"*(VP)—President Syngman
Rhee Thursday was quoted as
threatening “severe punishment”
for “those who act or talk against
the national (Rhee government)
policy” in South Korea.
Councilman Victor H. Blanc said
a room set aside for couples who
“expect to need privacy” for their
farewells was a fine thing, but,
can the budget take it?
Inwood said he could not see
any revenues derived from the
facility.
