Sabres. Down
4 More MiGs
SEOUL (PP) Sharp-shooting
Sabre jets• destroyed four Corn
munist MIGs and damaged four
more yesterday, boosting the num
ber of Red jet planes shot down
this month to a new high of 56,
the Air Force announced.
Clearing autumn skies brought
out the first MIGs in four days,
but the Sabres had to fly high
to engage them.
Snarling dogfights raged almost
seven miles high east of Sinuiju
on the Yalu River frontier of
Manchuria.
This battle brought the Septem
ber box score of MIGs to 56 de
stroyed, six probably destroyed,
and 51 reported damaged. One of
yesterday's damage claims was
not offkially confirmed.
Previously the best monthly
score was last April when Allied
airmen downed 41 Red jets and
three propeller-driven fighters for
a total of 44.

ial nominee, under fire from

about his decision as he left

The governor has acknowledged
he set up a special fund to aug
ment low state salaries paid men
he took from private business to
go into his Illinois state admin
istration. He has defended the
setup as not secret and not im
proper.
Baltimore- Rejection
Stevenson was flying from
Evansville to Indianapolis, where
he was scheduled for a major ad
dress last night on the subject of
economy in government.
As for the Illinois fund, which
Stevenson set up to supplement
the pay of key state officials, Ste
venson on Wednesday in Balti
more, Md., rejected demands that
he name the beneficiaries of the
fund.
Later he also declined to name
the donors, but he said he was
going to get in touch with them..
LATE FLASH
'INDIANAPOLIS (IP)— G o v .
Adlai E. Stevenson laid down
last night a five-point 'Program
for economy in government—
and he called Indiana's GOP
Sen. William E. Jenner a man
who "deprecates in ugly words"
the fight for peace.
In a speech prepared for de
livery at the Indiana S t ate Farr
grounds Coliseum, the Demo
cratic presidential nominee al
so rapped again at his Repub
lican opponent Gem Dwight D.,
Eisenhower, for endorsing Jen
ner for reelection. .
The governor said then that,
without supplementary s a 1 ar y,
some Illinois officials could not
have afforded to leave - private
employment.
But naming them, Stevenson
said at the time, would 'subject
them to publicity they didn't de
serve and would amount to a
"breach of faith on my part."
At the Springfield airport yes
terday m o r n i n g,
newsmen re
minded Stevenson that his cam
paign manager, Wilson Wyatt,
said yesterday the governor was
planning a further statement on
the controversial fund.
Contributors Contracted •
Stevenson said thiat was right,
and then added he already had
"contacted most of the people"
but there are so many it is diffi
cult to reach them all.
In reply to a.question, the gov
ernor explained he was talking
about contributors to the fund.
He said he had been in touch
with all the state officials who
were elided from the fund. He
completed that job last night, he
said, adding that it was easier
to reach them than the contribu
tors.

U.S. Envoy
Nenounced
5 : y Pravda
MOSCOW (44")—A blistering at
tack by Pravda yesterday raised
a question as to the future status
of Ambassador George F. Kennan
as the American envoy to Russia.
Pravda, organ of the Commu
nist party and the highest jour
nalistic • authority in the Soviet
Union, charged Kennan with con
duct improper to an ambassador
and said he was a "slanderer dis
guised as a diplomat."
He was quoted as saying that
Soviet-American 'relations ha d
sunk to an "icy cold" level, and
compared the situation of Ameri
can diplomats in Moscow "now
with that of interned U. S. Ameri
cans in Berlin in 1941-42 during
the war.
"Had the Nazis permitted us to
walk the streets without having
any right to talk to any Germans
that would be precisely how we
have to live today, in Moscow," he
was quoted.
In Washington, U. S. Secretary
of State Acheson said the Pravda
attack was wholly unjustified.
Pravda said Kennan was:
An "ecstatic liar."
A: violator of elementary rules
obligatory for diplomats.
Seeking to worsen Soviet-
American relations rather than
improve them.
Recommending himself as an
enemy of peace, and thus of the
Soviet Union.
Guilty of slanderous fabrica
tions, crude anti-Soviet attacks,
malicious hostility and obvious
nonsense.

Byrd Praised by Ike
In Virginia Speech
ABOARD THE EISENHOWER SPECIAL (IP) —GOP presidential
nominee Dwight D. Eisenhower paid high tribute 'to Sen. Harry
Byrd of Virginia last night as he drove his presidential campaign
through North Carolina and Virginia.
Arriving at Petersburg, Va., Eisenhower told a cheering crowd
of some 6000 that he understood he had the support of a "Democrats
for Eisenhower" organization.
"Any party that could produce
a man like Harry Byrd is a top
flight outfit," he declared.
'Political Mortgage' Hit
President Truman has said
there were "too many Byrds" in
the Senate. But both Eisenhower
and Democratic presidential nom
inee Adlai Stevenson now have
praised Byrd and his record in
the Senate.
Earlier, Eisenhower had called
for roaring crowds in North Car
olina and Virginia to cancel out
the Democrats' "political mort
gage" on the South. •
It , was his second. appeal for
Dixie support in less than a
month—and the windup of a 12-
day, 12-State tour that ended last
night with a speech in Richmond,
Va.
Bids For Electoral Votes
Throngs turned out at each stop
to give him the same warm wel
come he received - early this month
in Georgia, Florida, Alabama and
Arkansas.
Eisenhower made his first for
mal bid for North Carolina's 14
electoral votes with a speech be
fore an estimated 18,000 people
jammed into Memorial Stadium
at Charlotte.
But his first informal appear
ance in the state with Mrs. Ei
senhower came at Salisbury—
where both stood on the train
platform in dressing robes and
pajamas.
A police-estimated crowd of 25,-
000 cheered the GOP candidate
through the streets of Charlotte
to the stadium. And Eisenhower
immediately opened fire on the
Democratic hold on the South
land. "
Senators Should Live
On Salaries—Mitchell
WASHINGTON (1P) Stephen
Mitchell, chairman of the Demo=
cratic National Committee, was
quoted yesterday as saying- that
no one should run for the U.S.
Senate unless he is willing to live
within the salaries and expenses
allowed him by the government.
The question came up when
the committee was asked whether
Mitchell had ever said a -man
should not run for the Senate
unless he can afford it.
Mitchell himself could not be
reached yesterday, but Tom Yar
brough, assistant press 'chief to
Mitchell, said the chairman had
discussed the subject earlier this
week.
