‘BOOK BURNERS’ ARE SCORED Eisenhower Says Views Have Right To Be Made Public WASHINGTN ® — President | Eisenhower, speaking out against | “the book burners,” declared yes- terday that Americans must fight | eommunism “with something bet- | ter, not try to conceal the thinking of our own people.” Eisenhower named no names, Dut his statement recalled the de- mand by Sen. McCarthy (R-Wis), acceded to by the State Depart- ment, that the government with- draw from its overseas libraries | books by authors who are known | Communists. or fellow travelers, The President said even those | ‘with whose views we disagree have a right to have their views on rec- ord in public places—‘‘or it is not America.” “Look at the ‘book burners,’ ” he told the graduating class at Dartmouth College in Hanover, N. H, “Don’t think you are going to swerve something by concealing evidence that it ever existed, don’t be afraid to go to the library and fead every book, so long as that document does not offend our own ideas of decency ... “How will we defeat commu- nism, unless we know what it is, and why it has such an appeal for men? Why are so many peo- ple swearing allegiance to it? It is almost a religion—albeit in one of the nether regions, We have got to fight it with something better, own people.” This was the first of two short talks the President made yester- day in the whirlwind finish to a five-day speaking tour which took him into five states. He also flew over serious storm damage in Michigan and Massachusetts and pledged federal aid~and money to- ward reconstructions, Back at his desk today, the Pres- dient’s first appointment was with the Republican congressional lead- ers—not including Sen, Taft (R- Ohio), undergoing treatment in New York City for a hip ailment. From New Hampshire, the Pres- ident flew to Oyster Bay, N. Y., about 30 miles east of New York City, and dedicated the summer home of Theodore Roosevelt as a national shrine, He shared the plat- form with former President Her- bert Hoover and New York’s Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, Eisenhower said there is a ten- dency to overdramatize the for- mer Rough Rider, and he added: “The fact is he was a wise lead-' ef. He was not a swashbuckler,’ he was not a bull in a china shop... “He was-a man who understood his fellow human beings. . . .” About 8,000 persons heard the President, in front of Sagamore Hill, the Roosevelt summer White House, at the opening of week-long ceremonies.
