TWO MEMBERS OF
CABINET DEFEND
ADMINISTRATION
Secretary of Welfare Folsom
said Monday it is “preposterous”
to suggest his department has only
nine persons working on the prob
lems of older citizens. He said |
“tens of thousands of federal em,
ployes—more than ever before—
are working on programs which
directly benefit older persons.”
Folsom’s statement did not
mention Stevenson by name, but
it was an obvious reply to Steven
son’s charge Sunday that only
nine people on Folsom’s staff are
concerned with “enlarging oppor
tunities for America's 15 million
senior citizens.”
In Casper, Wyo., Secretary of
Interior Seaton defended Eisen
hower Administration farm and
conservation policies in a talk to
ranchers and oil executives.
“If we could achieve the same
bipartisan attitude toward the
I farm problem as we have in con
j servation, whatever difficulties
I there are would be quickly
i solved,” Seaton said.
Stevenson Trying j
To Divide U. S.
Into Classes: Nixon
By the Associated Press
In Salt Lake City Monday, Vice
President Nixon accused Steven
son of conducting “what now ap
pears to be a calculated campaign
to divide Americans on a class
basis and to set one group . . .
against another.”
Nixon said that Stevenson has
charged the Eisenhower Admin
istration “is too indifferent to hu
man values and too absorbed in
advancing the interests of a few.”
“The more he makes statements
of this kind,” said Nixon, “the
more it becomes apparent that all
he has to offer to the American
people is a carbon copy of the
same type of political demagogu
ery which characterized the Tru
man Fair Deal.”
The Democratic vice presiden
tial contender, Sen. Estes Kefauv
er, renewed his own attack
against Nixon in Jamestown, N.D.
Monday, saying Nixon is “at the
forefront of the old guard," and
would “call the signals and run
the country” in another Eisen
hower Administration.
Since the Constitution bars a
third term for President, Kefauv
er said, “it is Nixon who will
therefore be the real power in a
new Eisenhower-Nixon Adminis
tration. It is Nixon with whom
the Republican politicians will
mend their fences and make their
alliances. It will be Nixon who
will call the signals and run the
country.”

Twelve Persons Killed in Crash
Of C -47 on Continental Divide
BUENA VISTA, Colo., 141—All
12 persons aboard an Air Force
C-47 were killed when the twin
engine craft plunged into the
sheer northwest edge of 14,172
foot Mt. Yale.
A joint Army-Air Force team
equipped with mules started an
ascent to the 11,500-foot level at
dawn yesterday to return the
bodies.
Among the victims, who includ
ed both civilians and military per
sonnel, was a red-haired Wom
en's Army Corp enlisted woman.
The bodies were found strewn in
and around the fire-charred
wreckage by a seyen-man team
which rode and climbed for five
hours to reach the scene.
Names of five victims were an
nounced Tuesday 4>y the Contin
ental Air Defense Command at
Colorado Springs, where the
plane was based.
They were: the pilot. Col.
Charles A. Miller, 49; the copilot,
Capt. J. J. Richardson, 44; Col.
Frederic W. Ledeboer, 50; S/Sgt
William E. MacKenzie Jr.; and a
\civilian, Oscar M. Rupert.
The Air Force identified the
woman aboard as WAF M/Sgt
Helen M. Schuyler.
CONAD said others aboard
were five soldiers and a member
of the Coast Guard, whose names
will be released later.'
The plane left Colorado Springs
at 9:30 a.m. Monday on a flight
to Hamilton Air Force Base near
San Francisco.
Allen Fitzgerald, an employe
of theColoraoo Deformatory here,
flew over the crash scene at noon
and later guided the first rescue
team to the site.
So hazardous is the climb to the
crash site—Fitzgerald said his
team climbed “almost vertically”
for two miles—that six mules
from Camp Hale, near Leadville,
Colo., were brought here to help
pack out he bodies.
The scene Is near the top of the
Continental Divide, 12 miles west
of Buena Vista.
Kefauver Says There’s
An Elderly Government
In Nation’s Capital
Vice President Nixon and Sen.
Estes Kefauver were both hard
at work in the campaign as can
didates for the vice presidency.
Kefauver, in an address pre
pared for delivery today to a
young voters organization in Lou
isville, Ky., said the Eisenhower
Administration has swept the
world crisis “under the rug.”
He said Eisenhower “has done
less than any person in my mem
ory to use young men and women
in government,” and added: “We
have a rather elderly government
in Washington.”
Nixon, almost recovered from
a throat ailment that slowed his
campaign progress yesCerday, has
scheduled an afternoon rally in
Kansas City, Kan., across the Mis
souri River from Kansas City,
Mo., where Stevenson was sched
uled to speak tonight.
Nixon told a Houston, Tex.,
audience last night the Eisenhow
er program “is bigger than any
political party ... it contains
principles and policies that I think
represent the best thinking of
both political parties.”
Air Force Computer
Will Swiftly Process
Weather Information
ASHEVILLE, N.C., Oft—The Air
Force today put into operation a
fantastic new computer to process
more swiftly the flood of weather
records it receives from around
the world.
Brig. Gen. Thomas S. Moorman,
commander of the Air Weather
Service, pushed the button that
put the new International Busi
ness Machines’ electronic data
processing machine into service
here. He said the device will
make available immediate long
range climate studies for the na
tion's military planners.
The machine’s memory bank
condenses vast quantities of
weather information on coded
tapes. When a weather problem
for some area comes up, it will
quickly deliver a detailed analy
sis.
