the South Hall men's and Pollock
area men's residence halls into

action, William Lott, Pollock, said
that the. South Hall residence hall
is considered.a part of Pollock by

similar measure proposed_by
George Gordon, North, to .con
solidate the Nittany and Pollock
areas. -
BOTH LOTT and Joseph Tech,
Nittany; said that their constitu
encies did not favor a consolida
tion , because they felt the two
areas had' their own individual
prOblenis. '

automatically impeach a congress
man if he misses two meetings
without a valid excuse was de
feated, 11445.. •

FOR A ESTER PENN STATE
Ike Backs Conduct
Of Former Aide
WASHINGTON (W) Former
President Dwight D. Eisenhower
said yesterday he is ready to be
nailed to the cross if the: man who
served as his secretary of the
treasury ever did a'crooked thing.
Eisenhower spoke out after Sen.
Stuart Symington, D-Mo., said the
taxpayers stand to lose more than'
$1 billion in government. stock
pile operations, largely as a result'
of what he called "special treat
ment" accorded some companies.
SYMINGTON made the state
ment as he pointed his Seilate in
vestigation of defense stockpiling
toward a series of government
contracts with nickel mining and
smelting companies headed by
former Secretary of the Treasury
George M. Humphrey.
AS FOR STOCKPILE opera
tions in his administration, Eisen
hower said they were carried on
under laws "enacted 'long before I
I got. there." He said he always
aimed to avoid/ using stockpile '
operations to .regulate the econ
omy.
His administration always tried
to avoid buying when the price,
was
,going up, he said, because
"the government has no business
being in speculation."
