Army 'Demands-
More Aircraft
For Own Use
WASHINGTON, May 24 (W)—The Army flew into a dis
puted area today with a demand for new aircraft to track
missiles capable of plunging far beyond the combat zone as
signed for Army aviation.
The claim for longer rang
with its new missiles was stal
Aviation Fact Sheet."
The paper also posed a require
ment for much heavier troop and
cargo planes than the Army is
permitted to operate under the
terms of a 1952 agreement with'
the Air Force.
In commenting on interservice
rivalries yesterday at his news
conference, President Dwight D.
Eisenhower said he would be ser
iously concerned if there were no
service rivalries, especially at a
time when new military concepts
are developing rapidly.
"The only thing in which you
might say that I was unhappy is
that sometimes the way in which
these arguments are conducted,"
Eisenhower said
As!red by newsmen Tuesday
about what steps he planned to
take to keep peace in the family,
Secretary of Defense Charles E.
Wilson replied: "We'll see who
sticks their head up next. I think
it might be a little dangerous."
Today Sen. Henry M. Jackson
(1)-Wash.) called this "a terrible
thing to say."
He proposed that a Senate
Armed Services subcommittee, of
which he is a member, undertake
to find out what Wilson meant by
his statement.
Jackson said he thought the sub
committee ought to learn whether
"Wilson has issued orders, as,ru
mored, preventing officers from
speaking out." That would endan
ger national security, he asserted.
The Army tied its demand for
aircraft that would operate well
beyond the agreed limits to the
need for spotting that would oper
ate targets for artillery and "guid
ed missiles," and obtaining infor
mation about the enemy "not oth
erwise obtainable by air recon
naissance agencies of the other
services."
Housing Provision Passed
For .500,000 More Units
WASHINGTON, May 24 (AP)—The Senate passed a big new hous
ing bill today, including provision for 500,000 more public housing
units and billions of dollars in credit and insurance for new home
construction.
Approval was on a voice vote. The measure, going far beyond
what President Dwight D. Eisenhower wants in the way of a.housing
program, still has to be voted on
in the House.
Senators wrote into the bill a
one-year extension of the G.I.
home loan program, under which
more than four million dwellings
have been built. They voted, to
keep the program going until
July 25, 1958, to help veterans
who still want to buy homes and
to aid in maintaining the health
of the construction industry.
Beaten down was an attempt
by administration forces - to sub
stitute Eisenhower's public hous
ing recommendations for the
much larger program in the om
nibus bill.
The Senate rejected 41-38 an
amendment by Sen. John W.
irricker (R-Ohio) to put into the
bill the 35,000 public housing un
its Eisenhower asked for each
of the next two years.
Under the program, the low
rent apartment units are built by
local public housing authorities.

Officials Ousted
From Jobs
HARRISBURG, May 24 (if")—'
Six ranking employees of the
Pennsylvania Turnpike Commis -I
sion were dismissed today in
what the 'agency's chairman de
scribed as a "sweeping change."
However, Chairman G. Frank
lin McSorley said "there were no
other changes contemplated at
this time."
The chairman made the an
nouncement just a f ter Gov.
George M. Leader told his week
ly news conference that economy
in the agency's operation might
save millions of dollars and avert
a proposed toll hike on the super
highway.
The toll hike reference was to a
41 per cent boost in automobile
tolls which was scheduled to go
into effect on the 408-mile high
way tomorrow—the same day the
commission will open its Dela
ware River bridge to link Penn
sylvania and New Jersey super
highways.

Ike Wants Bills
Passed Before
Congress Closes
WASHINGTON, May 24 (.'P)—
President Dwight D. Eisenhower
gave Congress a gentle prod to
day on nearly a score of bills be
would like to see passed before
adjournment in July.
He did- it by releasing through
assistant press secretary Murray
Snyder a list of pending legisla
tive items in international, na
tional security, governmcut, eco
nomic and welfare fields.
Snyder said he was issuing the
list in response to inquiries, and
that while there was no intention
of calling the bills "must" items,
Eisenhower regarded them as
high points in which he had great
interest. •
Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson of Tex
as, the Senate Democratic leader,
said in a statement regarding to
day's White House list:
"Some of the measures that he
discusses are virtually certain to
be passed in the near future; oth
ers are receiving careful consid
eration by the appropriate com
mittees.
"I think if the President will
be patient he will find that at the
end of the session, Congress will
have enacted a program designed
to meet the needs of the Ameri
can people and to face the prob
lems that are before us."
Campaign Grows
Hotter in Florida
By The Associated Press
The Adilai Stevenson-Estes Ke
fauver campaign fo r Florida's
votes in the Democratic presiden
tial convention grew hotter on
Thursday night with these top
developments:
Stevenson said that as governor
of Illinois, he pledged never to
play politics with human lives
and "I would urge Sen. Kefauver
to adopt that principle."
Kefauver declared that Demo
cratic congressmen in Florida are
"ganging up on me." He thus re
vived the "bossism" cry he used
in his defeat of Stevenson in the
Minnesota primary March 20.
The Florida primary next Tues
day has 28 nominating votes at
stake.

Six Quakers Report
On Soviet Conditions
PHILADELPHIA, May 24 (.-P)—Six Quakers who toured Russia
for a month last year reported today "Americans now have a new
and significant opportunity to develop better understanding be
tween the United States and the Soviet Union."
In an 89-page booklet describing their Russian trip, the Quakers
said individuals should go be
yond "an armed truce in a cold'
war" which "may well be the
best governments can offer if
citizens content themselves with
fostering suspicion and fear,"
The team of five men and ai
woman, which traveled 1.1000 ,
miles in Russia under the spon-
sorship of the American Friends
Service Committee, said, "Forces
are at work which will certainly
make the future very different
from the past."
The report contained observa
tions only and was not designed
as a full-fledged report on Rus
sian life.
The Quakers said their "strong
est impression" was the "fluid
quality" of Soviet society and
spoke of Russia's massive educa
tion program, her sharp class dis
tinctions, the spiritual vigor of
her people and the evidence of
relaxing internal controls.
They reported that they discov
ered the theories of Marxism are
proving inadequate and made
these observations:
"An increasing number are be
ing taught to think, and accord
ing to American scientists, to
think very well . - . But educa
tion, once provided, is not easy
to control.
"Another force that refuses to
fit neatly into the Marxist doc
trine of scientific human relations
is religion. We found enough evi
dence of spiritual vigor to suggest
that the Communist concern over
a religious revival is well-founded.

It looks as if beautiful Bobbie will be our last "OK Joe"
of the semester. It could hardly have ended better.
Now that classes are about over, I knew you won't study
until the last - minute anyway, why not use this time to having
a fine portrait made. I hate to mention it, but, as you must
be aware, you're getting older all the time. Admittedly, it'll
deprive you of six to ten dollars by far, more than worth it
to your parents.
By the way, you can still make re-orders and get them
before you leave. Also a few 11"x14" composite copies and
some party pix are still left.
Bunny and I would like to express our sincere thanks
for keeping this little studio a most busy place.
