Ike Takes On Heaviest
Schedule Since Attack
GETTYSBURG, Pa Nov. 16 k iP)—President Dwight D. Eisenhower is taking on tomorrow
the heaviest schedule of official conferences since his Sept. 24 heart attack in Denver.
Secretary of State John Foster Dulles is flying the Atlantic to report to Eisenhower
tomorrow and Friday, and then to the American people, on the Geneva conference stalemate.
Secretary of Commerce Sinclair Weeks is coming up from Washington for a meeting.
To make it a triple header af
lair, Budget Director Rowland
'Hughes will see the President for
;the first of a series of conferences
(that will whip the administra
tion's budget for the -fiscal year
beginning next July 1 into shape
for - presentation to Congress in
January.
With Weeks and Hughes will be
Presidential Assistant Sherman
Adams, with a new batch of doc
uments requiring Eisenhower's at
tention.
For the convalescing President,
this was what White House Press
Secretary James C. Hagerty
called "a very quiet day." It had
not been planned that way. But
'fog and rain kept Eisenhower in
doors and official visitors were
.grounded in Washington.
As a result, Eisenhower also
put off 24 hours setting up shop
in the Gettysburg post office,
where he plans to receive most of
his official callers from now on.
Dulles, however, will be re
ceived in the privacy of the Pres
ident's study-bedroom at his man
sion four miles out in the country.
Dulles will spend the night in
Gettysburg, confer with Eisen
hower again Friday, and then re
turn to Washington. Hagerty told
a news conference the White
House has asked for radio-TV
time for the secretary to address
the nation Friday night.
Adlai's Hat
In Democrat
Ring—Again
CHICAGO, Nov. 16 (IP)—Adlai,
E. Stevenson seized the initiative
in Democratic presidential nom-
ination strategy today by an
nouncing he' will enter the March
20 primary in Minnesota.
Stevenson, who won the 1952
nomination without making •an
active bid, said he will enter the
March 20 Minnesota primary at
the invitation of the Minnesota
Democratic-Farmer-Labor party.
Stevenson, the first of his party
to make such a move on the poli
tical chessboard, took the position
that health should not be an is
sue in competition for the presi
dency but he added:
"It would be foolish to say that
people don't take into account the
survival, of a candidate in office
or his fitness to perform the of
fice.
"I should certainly never make
health an issue myself. I should
hope earnestly that such limita
tions as health may have imposed
could be remedied by total cure."
He said he has not yet made
up his mind about getting into
other primaries than that in Min
nesota. "It will depend on the
primary and circumstances," he
said.
He added that he expects to
reach a decision within a month
about the June 5 primary in Cali
fornia.
Sen. Kefauver and Gov. Aver
ell Harriman of New York—who,
with Stevenson, are the most
mentioned possibilities for the
Democratic nomination—will be
in Chicago for the round of party
meetings that will get under way
lull-scale tomorrow.
Sen. Kefauver is expected to
announce his 1956 plans next
month.

Moroccan Sultan Returns

Leaders Argue
On Significance
Of Geneva Talk
WASHINGTON. Nov. 16 (/I")
Administration leaders voiced
clashing opinions today on wheth
er failure of the Big Four con
ference at Geneva means a step
ping-up of the cold war between
the Communists and the Free
World.
Secretary of Defense Charles
E. Wilson said "one could not
draw the conclusion" that the
stalemate reached by the foreign
ministers in Geneva will result
in "an intensification of the cold
wax:"
Another high policy make r,
however, asserted "the cold war
is back" and the administration is
consequently reviewing its spend
ing plans.
This official, who would not
permit the use of his name, re
ported "the administration is re
examining its program and is pre
pared to make any changes that
are necessary."
Wilson took a somewhat bright
er view and did not write off the
chances of some progress being
made by the foreign ministers in
the future. The diplomats broke
up their Swiss meeting' in a gloo
my atmosphere today.
Rabat, the 41-year-old Sultan
thanked his jubilant people for
their "faithfulness" and reminded
them that he, too, had been faith
ful. -
New Leader
Income Tax
Discussed
HARRISBURG, Nov. 16 (IF)—
The Leader administration wa s
reported today to be discussing
the possibility of providing for a
$lOOO deduction under a tentative
plan to impose a personal net in
come tax.
A source close to Gov. George
M. Leader, who asked not to be
identified, said the $lOOO feature
is designed to sell the income levy
to labor groups.
No final decision has yet been
made on the idea. There is spec
ulation that Democrats are study
ing a 2 per cent tax based on net
income after dependency exemp
tions and a host of deductions al
lowable under federal laws.
The state Justice Department
was known to be drafting legisla
tion carrying out several alterna
tives for approval by the gover
nor and his advisers prior. ,to re
sumption of legislative sessions
Nov. 21.
Republicans are non-committal
on. the income tax - plan so far.
Rowland S. Mahany, Senate Re
publican floor leader, has taken
a wait-and-see attitude.
Democrats also are considering
the idea of a I or 2 per cent man
ufacturers' excise tax which
would impose a levy on goods
sold at that level in Pennsylvania.
This type of levy has often
been called a sales tax in disguise.

Eastern blocs, with Russia no
longer even paying lip Service to
the principle of free elections to
unite 70 million Germans.
They torpedoed four plans from
the summit for making a quick
practical start on disarmament.
These were President Dwight D.
Eisenhower's reciprocal aerial in
spection, Premier Bulganin's
ground control posts at key cen
ters, Prime Minister Anthony
Eden's East-West demilitarized
buffer zone, and Premier Edgar
Faure's coordinated military bud
get cuts. Not even an American
offer to extend aerial inspection
to some 50 nations tempted Rus
sia to accept the Eisenhower plan.

Israel
From
WASHINGTON, Nov. 16 (IP)—lsrael formally asked today
for U.S. arms at cut-rate prices on easy payment terms. Egypt
promptly protested that this would start a Middle East arms
race and lose America the friendship of Arabs.
Israel's Ambassador Abba Eban told the State Depart-
ment his country urgently needs
defense weapons. He said Israel
has a "sense of alarming vulner
ability" arising from Egypt's pur
chases of Communist arms.
But five and a half hours later
Egypt's Ambassador Ahmed Hus
sein turned up at the State De
partment to say:
"We believe Israel doesn't need
American arms. We need arms
ourselves for defense."
Hussein told George V. Allen,
assistant secretary for Middle
East affairs, that "Egypt may be
compelled" to make more arms
deals with the Communists. He
said that if the United States
ships weapons to Israel the Arab
world will be convinced "the
United States does not want our
friendship."
The State Department issued
statements saying Israel's request
had been taken under considera
tion and Egypt's protest had been
noted.
But the department stood by
recent expressions of President
Dwight D. Eisenhower and Sec
retary John Foster Dulles that
the solution of Middle East prob
lems lies in "agreement between
the parties" and not in an arms
race.
To Hussein, the department said
that:
"Mr. Allen repeated that the
United States would be favorably
inclined toward anything which
led toward peace in the area and
would view with grave disappro
val anything which might lead
to hostilities there."
Hussein said that in addition
to talking with the State Depart
ment about the arms question,
he also complained about "Amer
ican charitable contributions" to
Israel. He said he mentioned bond
selling campaign now being con
ducted by Foreign Minister Mo
she Sharett in the United States,
but made no formal protest.

Peron ist Labor
Strike Persists
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina,
Nov. 16 (W)—Argentina's new pro
visional government held back
today in cracking down with se
vere measures on the challenge
presented by the general strike
strike called by Peronista labor
leaders.
Apparently, Provisional Presi
dent Maj. Gen. Pedro Aramburu's
Cabinet is content for the time
being to see whether the strike
would end of the workers' own
volition.
'Aramburu met with his full
Cabinet this morning for the first
time since he ousted Maj. Gen.
Eduardo Lonardi on Sunda y.
There was no announcement af
terward of stern strike-breaking
measures. Paul C. Migone, the
labor minister, spoke only of
plans being drafted to bolster the
country's lagging economy.
The strike was not as extensive
as hoped for by the Peronista
leaders of the once all powerful
Argentina General Confederation
of Labor (CGT).
