Eisenhower Bids
Far South's Votes
NEW ORLEANS (?P)—Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower made
his supreme bid for the Southern states last night with a
speech in which he told Southerners that for them, the
Truman administration has been "the shoddy deal."
Eisenhower spoke in New Orleans but his words were
addressed to the South as a whole.
Ail ies Open
New Attack
On Koreans
SEOUL, (W) Allied infan
trymen opened a smashing new
attack at dawn today on the Kor
ean Central Front 17 miles east
of White Horse Mountain under
a blazing artillery and tank bar
rage. front reports said.
The attack is believed the heav
iest Allied assault since Heart
break Ridge, one year ago.
Combat Photographer Fred
Waters said the attack north of
Kumhwa was directed against
"Triangle Hill," a Communist po
sition in the old Iron Triangle
area.
First waves of the Allied at
tackers stormed to the 'summit of
the peak. Then the Reds, putting
up bitter resistance, rallied and
hurled back the attackers.
Allied troops moved quickly in
the pre-dawn mist across a val
ley to get in position for the ridge
accent. After 3 1 / 2 hours of fight
ing, a frontline officer reported,
the Allies were pinned down on
the mountain slope by grenades
and mortar fire.
An officer.reporting from a di
vision command post said the Al
lied big guns, mortars, and tanks
unleashed "terrific" fire on . the
Chinese.
At White Horse Mountain, vic
torious South Korean troops cut
down Red suicide squad- attack
ers, then pounded the Reds' last
foothold on that bloody hill mass.
Rosenberg Retrial
Refused by Court
WASHINGTON Vl))—Death in
Sing Sing's electric chair moved
a step nearer yesterday for Julius
and Ethel Rosenberg, • husband
and wife convicted as atomic spies
for Russia.
The Supreme Court, by an
eight to one vote, turned down
their plea for a review of their
conviction and death sentence.
The Rosenbergs have 15 days
in which to petition the high court
to reconsider its action—a step the
court rarely takes. Their only
other chance of escaping the elec
tric chair rests with President
Truman. He could reduce their
sentences.
A brief formal order rejecting
the plea for a review noted that
Justice Black felt the court should
hear the case.

And in one area—the question
of ownership of tidewater land—
they were aimed at the whole
country. For, he said in a speech
prepared for delivery, the the bat
tle over tidelands is, in fact.) an
entering wedge for government
control of the resources in rivers
and lakes, as 'well as in the sea.
Inland Lakes, Rivers?
,"If they 't a k e .the Louisiana,
Texas and California tidelands,
then what about the Great
Lakes?" he asked. "They have
been held , to be open sea. A good
part of Chicago has been built
on land once submerged by Lake
Michigan."
"What of the inland lakes,
rivers, and streams in Oklahoma.
lowa, Illinois, and Kansas?"
Lists Reasons
Thus, while he touched the sen
sative areas of states rights in
the South, he posed the question
of property ownership 'of tide
lands to the nation as a whole.
And he said: "I favor the recog
nition of clear legal titles to keep
those lands in each of the 48
states."
Eisenhower gave five reasons
for his attitude:
"1. I will always resist federal
encroachment on rights and af
fairs of the state.
"2. I am gravely concerned
over the threat to' the states in
herent in the growth of this pow
er hungry movement.
"3. The resources of these sub
merged areas, although still
owned by the states, will be avail
able fo r America's defense in
time of national emergency.
"4. The orderly development of
these resourcoo under the states
need not interfere with any valid
federal function.
"5. I believe the law twi c e
passed by Congress which would
recognize these state titles is in
keeping with basic principles of
honest dealing and fair play."-

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA
Football Victory
PITTSBURGH (W)—Students at
the University of Pittsburgh
turned the quiet of the campus
into roaring celebration yester
day in the wake of Saturday's
22-19 football triumph over No
tre Dame..
School authorities ruled classes
should resume after an hour long
celebration but jubilant students,
celebrating PitVs first victory
over the Irish since 1937, spilled
out of the cathedral of learning:
More than 1000 swarmed over
the campus, organizing impromp
tu bands with trays and cutlery
borrowed from the school cafe
teria. and snake danced into the
Oakland District, tying up traf
fic.
They buffeted policemen,
dragged classmates out of school
who failed to join in the celebra

marched:
"Let's go Pitt!"
Nixon Assails
Adfails Stand
On Red Issue
NEW YORK (fP)--Sen. Richard
M. Nixon, Republican vice presi
dential candidate, said last night
that Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson's
views on communism in govern
ment had "disqualified him from
leading" the United States.
In a nation-wide television and
radio appearance, the California
senator reviewed Stevenson's
character deposition for Alger
Hiss, former State Department
official who was convicted of per
jury after he denied he gave gov
ernment secrets to a Russian spy
ring.
Nixon said the Democratic
presidential candidate erred in
four ways in the Hiss case:
"It was given after" Whittaker
Chambers, Hiss' accuser, had con
fronted him with the charges.
"It _ was given when he, Ste
venson, was governor of Illinois.
"He has never expressed any in
dignation over what Hiss has
done . . ."
delegation the Soviet Union has
yet sent to the Assembly.
Vishinsky has not indicated his
stand on the major issues but del
egates expect he will support to
the fullest the Communist Ko
rean truce terms laid down at
Panmunjom.
He will get little support from
the majority. While the delegates
are not inclined to endorse the
unified command position fully
without a long and detailed ..ex
planation, there is no sign that

"THE RED 910 M"
Landslide
Predicted
SPRINGFIELD, 111. (JP)—Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson's campaign
manager yesterday predicted a landslide victory for the Democratic
presidential nominee in the Nov. 4 election.
."But we are still running a completely scared campaign and
expect to right up to election day," said the Stevenson manager,
Wilson W. Wyatt.
Wyatt's rosy forecast was the strongest victory claim so far
from the top echelon of the St:6-
venson camp. Specifically, he said
the Democrats expect 'to carry
such key states as New York,
Pennsylvania, California, Michi
gan, Illinois, and Ohio
Asked at a news conference
whether there were any states he
doesn't look for Stevenson to car
ry, Wyatt replied "we must frank
ly admit there are two or three
states on which •we have some
doubts."
He grinned and added that he
had not expressed any optimism
about Maine and Vermont—the
only two states the late President
Franklin D. Roosevelt failed to
carry in his 1936 landslide victory.
It was learned, meanwhile, how
ev,er, ,that the Stevenson high
command is concerned about the
outcome in such states as Colo
rado and Nevada.
- At his news conference, Wyatt
ticked off one state after another
which he said the Democrats are
counting as in the bag.
At another news conference
yesterday, Wyatt claimed a major
shift of independent voters is un
derway from Gen. Dwight D. Ei
senhower, the GOP presidential
nominee, to Stevenson.
'Wyatt spoke out yesterday as
Stevenson prepared to leave today
on a 6000 mile, five-day swing
into Wyoming, Utah, Washington,
Oregon, California, and Texas—
with 78 electoral votes among
them.
1400 Jets Promised
PARIS (JP)—The Mutual Se
curity Administration promised
yesterday that within 18 to 24
months 1400 shiny new European
jet fighters will begin rolling off
assembly' lines for North Atlantic
defense.
Four hundred million dollars,
most of it American money, will
finance the job ana establish
fighter building assembly lines in
five Western European countries.
the Communists have picked up
any support.
Arriving delegates speculated
this Assembly may be the most
critical in UN history. They
agreed with Canadian Foreign
Secretary Lester B. Pearson, who
said that Korea undoubtedly will
be the top problem this time.
Pearson is slated to be elected
president of the Assembly today.

Stevenson
Gets Lewis'
Endorsement
CINCINNATI (W) John L.
Lewis and the United Mine Work
ers union heads came out formal
ly yesterday for election of Dem
ocratic nominee Adlai Stevenson
as the nation's president.
Disclosing plans to take the
campaign stump for the Demo
crats in West Virginia, Lewis
praised Gov. Stevenson as a "hu
manitarian" and urged workers
everywhere to vote for him.
The veteran labor leader, at
the same time, pictured the Re
publican presidential nominee,
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, as a
"professional soldier," unskilled
in statesmanship and trained to
obey orders from "his masters."
'The resolution adopted unani
mously by 2800 cheering delegates
said a Republican victory under
Eisenhower would be a "national
disaster of first magnitude—labor
and the nation would lose the
gains and social advancements of
a quarter century."
"I think," Lewis said, "that if
the American people will march
to the polls in November, Steven
son will march to the White House
next January?!
Lewis and other union officers
pictured Gen. Eisenhower in
speeches as being controlled by
"privileged interests" and Steven
son as the best bet for social ad
vancement in America.
Lewis thus cast his lot with the
Democratic party, joining the AFL
and the CIO in endorsing Steven
son.
