THURSDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1.959 Ball Says GOP I s Planning TV-Radio Drive SPRINGFIELD, 111., Oct. 1 (Ac)—George Ball; national executive director of the - V6lunteers for Stevenson, said today the Republicans are planning a $2,000,000 "political soap suds" campaign on television and radio to elect- Gen: Dwight D. Eisenhower. And Ball said the campaign will be based on a document, "prepared for the Republican high command," stating that Eisenhower, the GOP presiden tial nominee, can count on only 30 "sure" electoral votes. That is 236_ short of the 266 needed to win in November. 'Democrats Lead' The document Ball made public also states: "According to the best current data available, th e Democrats lead the Republicans in potential electoral strength by 180. If they take • New York, they have an excellent chance to get the neces sary 267 votes to cinch the elec tion." Democrats Blamed for Chia Loss ABOARD EISENHOWER SPE CIAL TRAIN, Oct. 1 (?P)—Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower asserted tonight that the Democrats alone were repsonsible for the' loss of China to the Communist world. The Republican pre s i dential candidate/ carrying his campaign through Michigan, told a wildly cheering audience in Grand Rap ids: "The Republicans were not taken into council on China at all." ' Eisenhower said that the deci sions which resulted in China becoming the latest victim, of the Reds were taken solely by the Democratic officials who are con cerned with foreign policy in Washington. He cited this as !`only one of the failures" that overtook, the foreign policy of the United States when the bipartisan method of formulating foreign policy was abandoned. Vice-versa, the gen eral said, the successes that have been achieved by the U.S. in the struggle against communism came about when representatives of both parties were fully, consulted. As examples, he mentioned the building of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the bol stering -of Turkey, Greece and other countries that have been menaced by the Soviet Union. Gamblers Use Clubs as Front WASHINGTON, Oct. 1 (M—The Internal Revenue Bureau warned clubs and fraternal • societies to day against falling for a new gam blers' scheme to use non-profit organizations as a front to beat the federal wagering tax.

James Guthrie, acting chief of the bureau's special racketeer in vestigators, ' said many gamblers went out of business or went underground after last November when_the government put a ten per cent tax on wagers and a $5O occupational tax on the bet takers. He added that so far as tax agents know, no churches or col lege fraternities have become in volved.

Stage Big Riot on Cheju CHEJU ISLAND, Korea, Oct. 1 (R)—Five hundred Red Chinese prisoners unleashed their first big riot on their "independence day" yesterday and one-third of them were cut down in a melee with U.S. guards. The first 'official estimate of 45 Red prisoners killed and 120 wounded marked the riot as the second most deadly in. the long and bloody' history of Communist prisoner violence in Korea. Two of the 80 U.S. soldiers who rushed into the tumultuous com pound were wounded slightly as they met the rock-throwing, club swingirig Chinese with rifle fire and bayonets. The prisoners hurled stones from • behind the walls of a bar racks they were building, and met the soldiers in the open with clubs, barbed wire flails and tent poles— the standard weapons the Red prisoners used before. First Chinese Ado A board Of Army officers flew to Cheju Island to begin an in vestigation. It was the first time any of the 6400 Chinese Communist die , -hard prisoners had started any serious trouble. All the other violence here and on Koje Island, 125 miles to .the northeast, was staged by Korean Reds. Fighting broke out about 7:30 a.m. when American guards went to Compound 7 of POW Camp No. 34 to form work details. Reds Ordered To Stop Prisoners with their makeshift arms were milling around, sing ing defiantly and refusing to go on work detail. Presumably they were celebrating the third anni versary of the establishing of the Communist regime in China. Guards called the camp com mander, Col. Richard D. Boerem of Pittsburg, Calif., who broad cast an order over a loudspeaker ordering the Reds• to Stop the dem onstration. The Communist diehards, paid of a total .of 6400 Chinese Reds quartered around Cheju City, ig nored the order. Then the U.S. infantrymen en tered the compound, firing their guns, and tangled with the shout ing Reds.

SPOKANE, Wash., Oct. 1 (AP)— President Truman said tonight that in spite of "stale Republican lies" about high prices and taxes the American people are better off than ever before. And he said the nation will risk losing its "hard-won system of prosperity and security" if it puts Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower and Republicans who "can't think be yond their own pocketbooks" in power at next month's election. "I am sorry to see that abject surrender of their presidential candidate to the reactionary, vin dictive wing of the old guard," Truman said, adding: "Neither the Republican plat form nor their candidate reveals the slightest understanding of the basis of our prosperity or how to go about preserving it." Truman kept up the running fire against Eisenhower in a series reaching Spokane. He told a crowd of 2000 at Eureka, Mont.: "If y6u like Ike as much as I like Ike, you'll send him back to the Army. With obvious relish Truman quoted Eisenhower's acceptance speech at the GOP convention in Chicago, in which the general said this country has become "the mightiest temporal power and the mightiest spiritual force on earth." Calling this "an unconscious tribute to the Democratic party," Truman said Eisenhower doesn't talk that way since "the special interests got control of him."
