Eisenhower Sounds Appeal For Enactment Of Health Reinsurance Plan, GOP Congress By MARVIN L. ARROWSMITH {further step in’achieving this ob-| would favor ousting McCarthy as NEW YORK (#—President Ei- senhower, winding up a two-day visit to New York, has, sounded new appeals for enactment of his health reinsurance program and for election of another Republican In the final address of his New York visit, the chief executive | clared last night his program | expansion of the nation's voluntary health insurance plans, pigeonholed by. the. Republican-controlled Con- gregs last July 13, is “the logical alternative to socialized medicine.” Speaking to 2,000 persons, whd paid $100 each to charity at the annual. Alfred E. Smith .Memo- tial Foundation Dinner at thé Wal- dorf-Astoria, Hojel, Eisenhower said the program will be resub- mitted to the new Congress con- vening in January. i “We know that the American People will not long be denied ac- cess to adequate medical facili- ties,” he said. “The program for voluntary health insurance is one jective in the American way.” Under the program the govern- ment would underwrite up to 75 per cent of the losses suffered by private and nonprofit insurance firms as a result of voluntary ex- pansion of their health and med- ical programs. The President will pick up the Political trail again tomorrow at an outdoor luncheon at his Gettys- burg, Pa., farm to promote the candidacies of Pennsylvania Re- publicans seeking congressional seats and state office. Moving to help out in a hard- fought New Jersey. contest, he av- thorized a’ statement that he “has not changed one iota” in his ear- lier endorsements of former Rep. Clifford P. Case, Republican can- didate for the U.S. Senate. This amounted to a rebuff to Sen. Jo- seph R. McCarthy (R-Wis), who has Jjned up against Case. Case, also. the target of intra- party opposition in New Jersey, has announced that if elected he FLORIDA POULTRY, EGG & FISH CO. 819 SIMONTON STREET ee FRYERS ee e@ PHONE 2-6385 Week-End Specials -@@ oe 2 for $1.98 FLORIDA GRADE A—Dressed and Drawn STEWIN G HENS... .

Haz- erty recalled that Eisenhower en- dorsed Case on two previous oc- casions, and added: “He (the President) has been for him for a long time, is for him now, and is looking forward to welcoming him to Washington as the junior senator from New Jersey.” Eisenhower started yesterday with a boost for Sen. Irving M. Ives, who is running for governor of New York on the GOP ticket against Averell Harriman, Demo- cratic-Liberal party nominee. - In patting Ives on the back for a “tremendously helpful” job as senator, Eisenhower also put the spurs to New York GOP workers. He called for “determination that nothing in the world will stop you from succeeding” in the November elections. After speaking at that rally, the President made a 3¥2-hour tour of Manhattan, Bronx and Brooklyn housing, highway and hospital proj- ects with Ives and Republican Gov.-Thomas E. Dewey. At the Smith dinner last night, Eisenhower, speaking to the nation by television and radio, touched obliquely on a hot campaign issuc, handling of the subversive prob- lem, in a talk tabbed “nonpoliti- cal” by the White House. The President devoted much of his address to praise of the late Al Smith, who was a New York governor and -1928 Democratic presidential nominee. Then he (Smith) would have supported and applauded, if alive in 1954, every ote of. the laws of the recent Con- gress to make more certain the discovéry of subversives, to speed | their removal from influential posi- tions, and to mete out to them le- | gal punishment?” LIKE WALKING | WITHOUT SHOES IN FAMOUS “PEPPY STEPS’ $8.95 WORTH of COMFORT CRADLES THE FOO Plus Sponge Rubber Moulded-Arch Aid FLEXIBILITY FOR COMFORT Black, White, Blue, Red, Green Widths Narre: rites Sizes 4 4010 NON-SLIDING GLOVE GRIP HEEL CUSHION HEEL FOAM RUBBER CUSHION ARCH NITE TILL 9 P.M. | Condon To Get Quick Decision On Security By C. YATES MCDANIEL WASHINGTON w—Dr. Edward U. Condon, former Bureau pf Standards director now working in private industry, was promised to- day a prompt decision on whether his right to see government se- crets shall be restored. Secretary of the Navy Charles S. Thomas announced yesterday he had suspended the limited clearance given Condon three months ago after an earlier tem- Porary suspension. Condon, 52-year-old scientist who is research director for the Corn- Lattimorels _ On New Bypath WASHINGTON (#—The govern- ment’s long - drawn - out case against Owen Lattimore .entered a rare legal bypath today with the Presiding judge calling for argu- ments as to whether he’s biased in Lattimore’s favor. Lattimore, controversial Far Eastern affairs specialist, was in- dicted in December 1952 for per- jury on the basis of his testimony before the Senate Internal Secur- ity subcommittee then headed by the late Sen. McCarran (D-Nev). In the latest development in the still - unsettled case, U.S. Dist. Judge Luther.W. Youngdahl asked U.S. Atty. Leo A. Rover to defend today his accusation that Young- dahl has “a fixed, personal bias and: prejudice” in favor of Latti- more. Rover has asked the judge to disqualify himself. Opposing Rover’s move are Lat- timore’s attorneys, who say the request is “scandalous” and un- precedented. It is solely up to the judge as to whether he should disqualify himself. i Rover’s chargé against Young- dahl was filed Oct. 13 against this background in the lengthy pro- ceedings: 1, Youngdahl threw out in May 1953 four of the original seven per- jury charges against Lattimore. The U.S. Court of Appeals subse- quently reinstated two of the dis- missed charges but upheld Young- dahl 8-1 on the key count. This alleged Lattimore swore falsely before the Senate subcommittee in 1952 when he said he had never been a Communist sympathizer or promoter of Red causes. 2. The government on Oct, 7, 1954, won a new two-count indict- ment against Lattimore which, in effect, replaced the key count of Shop by phone urdine’s Sunshine Fashions FREE D ing Glass Works, commented at Corning, N.Y.: “I have been fully cleared four times by four different boards . . .

P. BRYAN WASHINGTON (#—-Former Gov. Sidney McMath was called today to tell a Senate subcommittee whether Arkansas had difficulty in regulating a subsidiary of one »f the firms involved in the proposed Dixon-Yates contract. The Judiciary subcommittee, headed by Sen. Langer (R-ND), has been inquiring into the oper- ations of Middle South Utilities, Inc., and its. subsidiaries. Middle id the Southern Co. make up + Dixon-Yates group, with which the government is negotiat- ing a politically controversial con- tract for electric power. Arthur E. McLean, a Little Rock banker, testified yesterday that the Arkansas Power & Light Co., a Middle South subsidiary, had em- ployed “bribery” and coercion and had sought. to “dominate the state.” McLean is a long-time crit- jic of Arkansas power. Sidney Davis, counsel for the Senate group, said in an interview that Mclean’s testimony indicated that Arkansas regulatory bodies may have found it difficult to keep |the company under control. He said the group wants McMath’s views on “that point. SS sea ee the old one. The charges are that Lattimore lied when he said he had.ruled to be invalidly vague, was not contained in the new in- dictment. The trial was assigned to Youngdahl. Meanwhile, Lattimore, who has steadfastly maintained his inno- cence of the charges, is free un- |der the same $2,000 bond he posted for the original indictments in 1952. from 8:30 A.M...Coll 3.1111 ELIVERY ON WEDNESDAY through the down to Florida Keys Key West To better serve the needs of our cus- tomers, beginning Oct. 6, deliveries to the Florida Keys area will be made every Wednesday instead of Friday as at present.
