KRisenhower, Nixon Meet The World Today | By JAMES MARLOW WASHINGTON —_ The next | move—if any—in the Sen. Nixon case seems to be up to Stephen Mitchell, chairman of the Demo- cratic National Committee. Shortly after the disclosure last week that California’s chipped in an $18,000 expense fund for Nixon, Mitchell called on Gen. Eisenhow- er to sack his vice presidential running mate. Mitchell’s position was far stern- er than that of Gov. Stevenson, who merely suggested that judg- ment be suspended until all the y facts were in. “I have more facts than Steven- | son,” Mitchell said when asked to explain the difference between his | attitude and that of the governor's. | But this statement was made when the case was still new and | before Nixon explained his side of it Tuesday night in a nation-wide radio-TV appearance. It remains now unclear whether Mitchell was talking about the faet as explained by Nixon or whether he had some other facts of his own, Since he’s running the Democrat- ie National Committee, if he had any facts that could blow Nixon | out of the campaign, he could be expected to cut loose with them. | Eisenhower has had a full week | in which to examine Nixon’s case | and reach a deliberate decision on whether to keep him on the Repub- | liean ticket. | And Eisenhower has said Nixon | is “completely vindicated as man | of honor.” He gaves Nixon his jing in | an emotional re-union at Wh | W. Va., Wednesday night. From this point on if Mitchell | or other Democrats could produce | anything from up their sleeves that | badly damaged Nixon, more than Nixon would be hurt: Eisenhower | would be, toe, since his judg. | ment was involved in giving Nixon a clean bill of health. Between the time of the disclo- sure about Nixon’s expense fund | last week and Tuesday night when he explained it on TV, the Demo- | noise. In comparison, they were fairly quiet between the time of the TV | appearance and last night when Eisenhower marched Nixon before the Wheeling erowd with high praise, But even if they can’t offer any- thing else against Nixon, the Dem- ocrats aren’t likely to let him and | GEN.

THE DAYTONA BEACH STORY In states where greyhound racing is not legalized, city, county and state officials, business men and clergymen would be amazed if they visited Daytona Beach. Approximately four years ago Daytona Beach was asked to vote upon a referendum which would permit the building of the Volusia County Kennel Club and the racing of greyhounds at the track. It is doubtful if any election anywhere was fought so bitterly, by the merchants, businessmen ond clergy. Preachers stood in their pulptts and preached flery sermons against the track, businessmen paid large sums for newspaper advertisements ruin fo the merchants; officials blasted long and loud on the radio about the evils of dog racing, that i would ruin the public's morals and deplete their purses. “The tourists will stay away and only bems, vagrants, thieves cnd touts will come here," shouted one spellbinder. "Our children and our women will always be in danges,” declared a clergyman. “It will be a den of iniquity.” “Every merchant in town will be broke,” declared a . “Our men and women will Jose their money at the track and bills will never be paid. F will lose their pay and their chil- dren will go without food. Dire ruin and poverty are staring us in the face.” William L. Huntley, president of the Volusia County Kennel Club and pioneer of greyhound racing, explained to all who opposed the track that they were wrong. He stated that the track would be beneficial instead of harmful to the city and cited such towns as Miami, Hollywood, Palm Beach, St. Petersburg, Tampa, Orlando, and Jacksonville, { It is hard to change the mind or alter a Skiait cpfaice of cue eppoeed to givyilland or horns racing ond things did not look too good for the proposed track. Huntley, however, is a fighter and after a terrific battle won the election. That was approximately four years ago. With the opening of the third season at the track scheduled for June 3, President Huntley stood upon the grandstand steps together with a group of businessmen. Among them were Ralph Richards, resicurant man and newly elected county commissioner; Fred Tresher, Sr., nationally known trans portation man and oil weil + Buck Nilsson, insurance man; Wade Linder, managing director of the Prince George Hotel; R. P. Boynton, owner of Boynton’s seaside Villa; Judge H. M. Barton, Charles Creighton, owner of the nationally known Johnston’s coffee shop; Charles Hartman, of Hart- man’s publicctions, and Merrill Watts, As the group stood looking over the beautifully decorated infield, one remarked that the land certainly looked different them it did four years ago when it was merely a barren piece of ground. "Yos,” replied Mr. Huntley. “Rt certainly looks different. I think we kept our promise to the people of Volusia County that we would give them the finest greyhound track in the state.” “Not only that,” replied Tresher, “but lived up to your promise that you would give the people a fine, clean sport na n, clean establishment. I think many persons who voted against the dog track have changed their minds since then.” “You are absolutely right,” interrupted County Commissioner Richards. “You are looking at one who opposed the track. Of course, I did not know Mr. Huntley at that time or the kind of a place he intended to build.” Both Wade Linder, managing director of the Prince George, and R. P. Boynton of the Ville, seid that the track had done much to bring in new fourists, who came to Daytona not only because of the marvelous beach but because of the dog track. Creighton and Nilsson Gectared thet instead of injuring business fhe track had stimulated & “My business has grown and much of it came from the fine people the dog track brought to town.” Creighton said, Nilsson voiced the opinion that every merchant im town had benefitted. “I know I did, for my insurance agency sold many policies to greyhound owners, I also know several real estate firms who sold expensive homes to greyhound owners and to fourists who came hese because of the dogs.” Around Daytona the comment of the merch ants and businessmen is interesting. A. C, Hankins, of the Hankins drug stores, declared that he fought the dog track tooth and toe- nail, “I put in time-and money fighting it.” Dr. Hankins said. “And even though I have only visited the tracts twice since it has been opened, I would fight harder to keep it operating than I did when I fought against i, I know it brings many, many visitors and that it is GOOD for business.” “I do almost twiee as much business in the summer as I do in the winter,” BE. O, Wambie, of Wam- bie’s service station said, “and I attribute i all to the tzack, I never did half as much before the track wos here.” "The dog track certainty hsips our business,” sald Archie Bagwell, pro at fho Deytona Beach Golf and Gountry Club. Enthusiastic boosters for the track are Lan Doby of Doby’s Men's store, ©. K. Slanghter of Slaugh- ter’s Men's store. Many others, too mumesous for speee conditions to mention, ase strong supporters of the track not only as good entertainment but as a stimulator foe business. All have especially high praise for President William L. Huntley, scying that no track could be conducted in a finer fashion than Huntley's Volu sla County Kennel Club. —Greyhound Recing Record, june 9, 1950.
