Page 2 ODHAM’S CAMPAIGN (Continued from Page One) speech would be broadcast from the park by Station WKWF. “Lewin at this time told me the total cost of radio time, including broadcast, cost of spots and string- ing telephone wires to the park, for which he requested payment in advance. Payment Made “At noon, Thursday, Mr. Lewin stopped by the Campaign Trea- surer’s home and picked up a check for the combined cost of the program and had the contracts signed which called for 30 min- utes time from 8:00 to 8:30 p. m. Friday night to be broadcast di- rect from Bayview Park. “We (myself and the Deputy Treasurer, Isadore Weintraub) as- sumed that everything was com- pleted since Mr. Lewin said noth- ing to the contrary. The local Telephone Company was instruct- ed by WKWF to wire up the Park for the broadcast. They complied with the request and wired the Park. “At 11:45 a. m. Friday, I called Mr. Lewin and asked him to play God Bless America in the back- ground as Mr. Odham was signing * off the air. At that time Mr. Lewin informed me that he would have to have a script 24 hours in ad- vance of broadcast time—get this -—that was 8 hours and 15 minutes before broadcast time. Cancellation “On the previous day I had specifically asked Mr. Lewin if a script was necessary because we were refused radio time in 1952. WKWF ran two radio ads Friday morning informing the public of the address and broadcast from the Park—and one ad over the air at noon after Mr. Lewin had informed me that the broadcast was cancelled for Friday night. These spots were all put over the air less than 24 hours before the broadcast time. “Mr. Lewin informed me that they would transcribe the speech and broadcast it at a later date.

There was no indication from him that he intended to edit the speech. Whatever Mr. Odham said on the tape recording was to be broad- cast at some later date. Sincerity Questioned “Tt leads me to believe that there | Was not too much sincerity in the request for a script before per- mitting a live broadcast, when the Station was per‘ectly willing to broadcast anything that Mr. Od- ham said on a tape recorder. Fur- thermore, Mr. Odham said he wanted a live broadcast as it had been bought and paid for on that basis, not something transcribed that was 48 or 72 hours old. “Mr. Odham called Mr. Lewin by telephone and Mr. Lewin met | with Mr. Odham about 7:00 p. m. Friday night. Mr. Odham request- ed Mr. Lewin, in the presence of | several witnesses, to allow him} personally to sign a disclaim or} responsibility release, releasing the | Station from any joint responsibi- lity of what he might say over the air. Mr. Lewin refused, saying that he had never heard of one of those things. As an alternative, Mr. Odham offered to mark off sec- tions of his campaign pamphlet | and adhere strictly to those sec-{ tions as a substitute for a script — plus signing a release. Mr. Lew- in still refused! “As a result, many people of Monroe County who were sitting at home by their radios were depriv- ed of hearing the Odham broad- cast which they were expecting at 8:00 p. m, Friday night. People are asking why WKWF reversed its decision so suddenly. “What pressure was brought by whom to make Station WKWF take the inconsistent position it took in preventing Mr. Odham’s speech?” REGISTER NOW IF YOU (Continued from Page One) House Bill 1105, requires that everyone re-registered this year, Pinder said.

Already, he said, 1,105 new registrants have been re- corded. People over 65 are now about 8 per cent of the U. S. population. Telephones Study Made Of Vaccination Of Newborn Babes By ALTON L. BLAKESLEE AP Science Reporter CLEVELAND (®# — Vaccinating babies minutes after they’re born is safe, effective insurance against dangerous whooping cough and diphtheria, a family doctor finds, The shots in the arm against these diseases usually aren’t start- ed until babies are three to six months old or more. But Dr. Herbert D. Chamberlain, McArthur, Ohio, told today of good results from giving them as immi- diate birthday shots as part of the routine treatment of newborn babies. Of 717 babies treated this way since 1948, not one has had whoop- ing cough or diptheria, even when other children in the family con- tracted these diseases, he says in an exhibit for the American Adad- emy of General Practice. Between 1943 and 1948 in his tural practice in Vinton County, Ohio, there had been 40 cases of whooping cough and 10 deaths among babies less than a year old, he said, Since 1948, there has not been a single case of whooping cough, except in one baby not inoculated at birth, he said. He cited government statistics which show whooping cough kills more babies from 1 to 12 months old than all other diseases com- bined. He gives the babies a standard vaccine combining protection against whopping cough, diphther- ia, and tetanus, a main cause of blood poisoning. : A full treatment consists of three shots. The second is given when the baby is 6 weeks old, when the mother receives a checkup for recovery from childbirth. The third is given when the baby is 3 months old. Three fourths of all the babies have had the full series, he said. TRIAL POLIO (Continued from Page One) he added, that “the vaccine is free from any agent which could cause any unusual reaction.” Van Riper said 44 states already have indicated their desire to par- ticipate in the trials.

Mundt (R-SD), who will preside over the hearings, that he should not vote in any question pertaining to the investigation. “T shall be a witness,” he added, “and I do wish to cross examine other witnesses, In all fairness, I feel this right of cross examination should be extended to the Army officials involved . . .” McCarthy's Reaction ‘That was his reaction to a Demo- eratic suggestion that he Step off the subcommittee, It was made Saturday night by a subcommittee member, Sen. Symington (D-Mo), who said in a statement that if McCarthy wants to “appear in the triple role of accusing witness as well as prosecutor and judge” the Democrats will carry a fight against such an arrangement to the parent government operations subcommittee. McCarthy also heads the full| committee. Symington said that if McCar- thy doesn’t step aside as a voting and cross-examining member and is upheld in this role, he will attempt to shift the inquiry to the Senate Armed Berwices Committee. le is a member of this 3 McCarthy is not. ee The McCarthy-Army dispute focuses around Secretary Stevens’ assertion that McCarthy and his subcommittee’s chief counsel, Roy M. Cohn, sought favored Army treatment for Pvt G. David Schine. Schine was an unpaid consultant to the committee before being drafted. Cohn disputed that. He and Mc- Carthy joined in accusing Stevens and his aides of trying to “‘black- mail” the subcommittee into drop- ping its inquiry into alleged com- munism in the Army by using Schine as a “hostage.” Stevens termed this “fantastic.” Important Issue Taking note of this in his state- ment about lie detectors, McCar- thy said the issue is “certainly more important than any murder case which, as a (Wisconsin state) judge, I ever tried.” He added that use of a lie detector, which records the physi- cal reaction of a person to ques- tioning, would be possible only if | all prospective witnesses were willing. “‘And I hope they will be,” he added. FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover has questioned the reliability of lie detectors, and tests made with them are not admissible as evi- dence in the courts of any state pene they were made voluntar- ly. McCarthy has suggested the use of lie detectors in other cases, but no Senate committee has ever adopted such a suggestion. McCarthy returned to Washing- ton last night from a four-day speaking trip in the Midwest.

Difference Of Opinion Noting that they have had differ- ences, McCarthy said Eisenhow- er’s batting average in office is| so much higher than that of any | other president in recent years that “there is no comparison.” These were among other devel- opments: 1. Two Episcopal Church dea.s, The Very Rev. Francis B. Sayre Jr., dean of the Washington Ca- thedral, and The Very Rev. Dr. James A. Pike, dean of St. John the Divine in New York City, ex- changed pulpits for denunciations of “McCarthyism.” Both said the American people were responsible for McCarthy’s Present power, and Sayre said the Senator “would be nothing without the active support of what has been estimated to be at least one third of our people.” Pike criticized what he termed the silence of the Roman Catholic hierarchy on the question of Mc- Carthy, a member of that faith. Pike said “it is not surprising that the Roman Catholic hierarchy, not adverse to taking positions on oth- er moral issues, has been silent on McCarthyism, and that the Roman Catholic papers with huge circulations have been pro-McCar- thy in influence.” 2. Sen. Ferguson said on the TV interview yesterday that various Senate committee chairmen have indicated they will accept a code of proposed rules for hearings, but that he has not heard from Me- Carthy on the point.

Oklahoma Democrats re- served decision on whether to demand free radio time to reply to McCarthy’s speech, broadcast locally. McCarthy spoke at a $10- a-plate GOP dinner attended by approximately 1,000 persons. In that speech, he did not make use of notes he had prepared in advance and given to newsmen, In these notes he said he had been working for months on an inde- pendent report setting forth “the aims of the Communist party to infiltrate and control every media of information such as radio, the newspapers and television.” The average American is using about 20 per cent fewer oranges and grapefruit than before World War II but about 1,500 per cent more canned orange juice.
