Leave -Korea Trap'
Eisenhower Urges
In New York Drive
NEW YORK, Oct: 29 (/P) —Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower said today
American forces must become “the great mobile reserve of the
free world” and not remain caught forever in “this Korean trap
fighting the real enemy’s second team.”
That was a parting statement in a day of campaigning through
two key, heavily populated counties in a state with 45 electoral votes.
Adlai Hammers
Through State;
Hailed Warmly
EN ROUTE WITH STEVEN
SON IN PENNSYLVANIA, Oct.
29 (fP) —Adlai E. Stevenson ham
mered through Eastern Pennsyl
vania today talking to receptive
audiences who warmed the win
try air with their cheers and ap
plause for the Democratic presi
dential candidate.
In Wilkes - Barre, Steven son
quieted a crowd of 16,000 by tell
ing them he knew their area was
affected by unemployment and
that he had a four-point program
which he thought might go a dis
tance toward solving their situa
tion.
The program entailed: Repeal
of the Taft Hartley law in favor
of what he called a law “which
would be fair to management, la
bor and the public”; setting up a
reasearch organization to find
more uses - for anthracite; place
ment ' of diversified industries in
the area; exploration of the pos
sibility of using the mining fields
for agricultural purposes.
All along the way Stevenson
praised the state-wide candidates
of the party.
■ While he slammed the Repub
lican program and policies, Stev
enson also cold shouldered one
Pennsylvania Democrat, U! S.
Rep. Francis E. Walter of Easton,
dean of the state Democratic dele
gation to the House. Walter is co
author of the new immigration
law—generally known as the Mc-
Carran Act—enacted by Congress
over President Truman’s veto.
Nixon Rejects Bid
To Reveal Income
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 29 (JP)—
Sen. Richard M. Nixon, although
stung by renewed Democratic de
mands for his income tax returns,
declined today to give a year-by
year breakdown of his earnings.
“The Senator is mad' as a hor
net,” James Bassett, Nixon’s press
secretary, said as he released a
statement in which Nixon put the
brand of “false and deliberately
malicious” on a statement by the
Democratic National vice presi
dential nominee and his relatives
own real estate valued at more
than $250,000.
Nixon, through Bassett, main
tained he made a full disclosure
of his and his wife’s income in his
broadcast of Sept. 23 after his
privately raised $lB,OOO expense
fund became known. . -
On a blustery day of sunshine
and snow flurries, the Republi
can presidential nominee rode
an open car through miles of
streets in the Bronx section of
New York City and adjoining
Westchester County.
Tens of thousands of people
came out in the cold to watch and.
cheer, and see him keep his hands
going in windmill or prizefighter
fashion all along the way.
Eisenhower - kept tolling them
in brief speeches he is the same
fellow some Democrats wanted
to draft in 1948—and now they
consider, him “a very vile crea
ture.”
He kept hammering over and
over on.:-.the Korean issue, the
one he has been riding harder
than any other at the campaign
wind-up. He kept trying to offset,
too. Democratic claims that a
Republican victory next Tuesday
might bring on another depres
sion.
The general said the opposition
is putting on a campaign of “des
peration and -fear” because there
is nothing in the record of the
last seven years it can sell'. In
the process, he said, it is resort
ing to bunk and “bare faced
falsehoods.”
- In a late afternoon speech in
the Bronx, where he spoke out
against letting U.S. troops re
main in the Korean • “trap,” the
general also lit into bigotry and
discrimination. That was in an
area where there is a large Jew
ish population.
He told how American soldiers
broke into prisons overseas and
“freed the tragic victims of the
master race madness of Hitler,”
adding:
“We fed them, we clothed
them, ministered to their pitiful
needs and I saw to it personally.”
The GOP candidate was in the
process of a double edged cam
paign today. In Winchester Coun
ty the effort was to build up an
even bigger GOP margin in a
traditionally Republican county
of estates and well-to-do subur
banities. In the Bronx, it was di
rected toward cutting into the
opposition strength in normally
Democratic territory.
In effect, this pha s e of the
Eisenhower campaign epitomized
the battle for all New York state
and the biggest bloc of electoral
votes in the nation. For when
Democrats win, it is because of
heavy majorities in New York
City, of whom the Bronx is a
part. When the GOP takes the
state, it is because it overcomes
the opposition edge in the city
with votes from upstate counties
similar to Westchester.
The Mayflower carried laborers
who did not sign the compact.

Sniper Ridge
Tunnel Bottle
Rages in Korea
SEOUL, Oct. 30 OS 3 ) —A furious
see saw battle raged today for
control of Sniper Ridge of the
Korean Central Front—with the
Chinese reaching the bloody crest
through tunnels.
A frontline report at 7:30 a.m.
said Allied troops -were holding
three-fourths of the pinnacle—
Pinpoint Hill.
An estimated 1,000 freshened
Reds joined the continuing battle
after rebuilding a tunnel system
leading to the hill from The Yoke
—Y shaped terrain to the north
of Sniper Ridge.
Allied forces once had blasted
the _ caves and tunnels closed
during their comparatively brief
tenure on the ridge—but were
forced off before they could com
plete destruction.
Wednesday’s fighting raged at
hand grenade range. It continued
throughout the night, the wild
battle obscured by darksess and
smoke. Big guns on both sides
poured in thousands of rounds of
artillery and mortar fire. It was
the 17th day of battle for the stra
tegic ridge.

Prisoners
To Present
Grievances
CHESTER, 111., Oct. 28 (TP) —Re-
belling convicts at Menard' State
Prison considered tonight freeing
their last seven hostages on the
promise of a public airing of their
grievances before Acting Gov.
Sherwood Dixon.
The 332 convicts in the East cell
house sent a delegation to talk
with Dixon in the presence of
newsmen soon after 38 psychiatric
prisoners had surrendered and re
leased the other three hostages un
harmed on a promise Dixon would
hear their grievances.
Dixon told the convict dele
gation: “As soon as you restore
order and release the seven guards
I will sit; down with you and hear
every grievance.”
After a 45 minute conference
the convicts carried the word of
Dixon back to the others in the
East cellhouse where the rebellion
began Monday.
Some of the prison officials ac
companied the convict committee
back to the cell house.
Wrangling immediately broke
out between the committee and
the other convicts.
Michael F. Sevfrit, state direc
tor of public safety, then proposed
the convicts release four of the
guards in exchange for food and
then release the other three.
For a time it looked like the
prisoners were going to accept.. A
truck load of food was to have
been prepared. Then the whole
thing collapsed.
