McCiJacken Talks At NSA Meet The role that the National StUdent Association can play on campus is to influence and help students to learn to value freedom, not fear it, Charles McCracken, dean of men of Allegheny College, said last night. Speaking at the opening, session of the three-day Penn sylvania-West Virginia NSA regional assembly, McCracken said that "students should not get bogged down in techniques but need spiritual qualities that value the individual." Stevenson Links Prexy With Peron President Milton S. Eisenhower has become the target of Demo cratic presidential aspirant Adlai E. Stevenson's criticism for an al leged friendship with Juan Peron, deposed Argentine dictator. Speaking in Miami Thursday night, Stevenson charged that United States relations with Latin American countries,' had deter iorated considerably during the Eisenhower administration and laid much of the blame to Penn State's president. Proxy Hit on 3 Counts Stevenson criticized Dr. Eisen hower on three counts: 1) That his "close friendship" with the former dictator was re sponsible for alleged unpopular ity of the U.S. in Argentina. 2) That he yielded to Peron's request to maintain a U.S. ambas sador in Argentina whose trans fer to another post had. already been announced. 3) That he persuaded Peron to allow the U.S. to.lend Argentina money after Peron had declared that "he would cut off both his arms rather than accept a loan from the United States." Stevenson - Wrongly Informed When informed of Stevenson's statements yesterday, Dr. Eisen hower said: "Mr. .Stevenson has been in correctly informed. When I vis ited Argentina three years ago, loans were not once mentioned either by Argentineans or me. The only specific problem discussed during. my two-day visit was the restoration of freedom to the United States press associations and this was successfully re solved."
