'NUMBERS GAME':
Saltonstall Raps Critics
Of Defense Program
WASHINGTON (RP)-Sen. Lev-
erett Saltonstall (R-Mass.), yes-
terday threw back at critics of the
administration's defense program
the charge of misleading the
people.
He accused them of withholding
part of the story and of playing a
sort of numbers game in their
criticisms.
Actually, Saltonstall said, this
country has "tremendous diversi-
fication and versatility of attack
(which) make the enemy's strate-
olc dilemma extremely difficult."
Voices Views
Saltonstall, senior Republican on
the Senate Armed Services Com-
mittee, voiced these views in a
speech prepared for a Washing-
ton's birthday dinner of the Dis-
trict of Columbia Society of the
Sons of the American Revolution.
Another Republican, Sen. Ken-
neth B. Keating (N.Y.), called in
the Senate for critics of the de-
fense program to stop "selling
America short."
Keating said it is inconceivable
that President Dwight D. Eisen-
hower and military leaders would
"relegate the United States to
second class power, either now or
in the future."
Daily Downgrading
He said that "daily downgrad-
ing of United States military
strength hurts morale at home,
brings doubt among allies as to
United States ability to defend
against Communist attack and
could cause a miscalculation" by
a potential enemy.
Saltonstall called for a "quali-
tative appraisal, rather than the
old numbers game approach," in
assessing the nation's defenses and
said:
"Superficial allegations about the
Eisenhower Administration mis-
leading the people are completely
untrue.
Political Football
"Such charges will not help our
military preparedness, nor should
our miltary preparedness become
a political football."
He said patriotic Americans best
serve the interests of national se-
curity and world peace by con-
sidering carefully what he termed
the over-all "mix" or assortment
of weapons and weapons systems.

To Stay Out
Of Dispute
Big Three Ignore'
Palestine People
DAMASCUS (P) -- President
Gamal Abdel Nasser accused Is-
rael yesterday of ordering mobili-
zation and massing troops on the
nervous Syrian frontier, scene of
recent clashes.
"Declarations are being made
that the situation in the Middle
East is deteriorating," the United
Arab Republic's president told a
rally called to celebrate the sec-
ond anniversary of the Egypt-
Syria union.
He was referring to UN Secre-
tary General Dag Hammarskjold's
recent statement that the Middle
East situation is worsening.
"But while these declarations
are being made," Nasser contin-
ued, "Israel is massing troops and
has declared mobilization of its
armed forces." (There has been
no mobilization announcement
from Israel).
Nasser in effect told the United
States, Britain and France to
stand clear of the dispute between
Israel and its Arab neighbors.
Warns West
He said their tripartite declara-
tion of 1950 guaranteeing Middle
East frontiers against attack "was
buried in Port Said" in 1956 when
the British and French attacked
the Suez Canal Zone. Now, he
added, the three powers want to
revive the declaration.
This was a reference to a recent
statement by British Foreign
Minister Selwyn Lloyd that the
Big Three Western powers were
consulting about the situation in
the Middle East and that the tri-
partite declaration still stands.
"If such governments pretend
to proclaim justice," Nasser said,
"then where are the rights of the
Palestine people in the declara-
tions they are making?
ignore TUN
"They ignore UN resolutions
supporting the rights of the Pal-
estine people, but they reaffirm
Israel's right to use the Suez Ca-
nal . . . if such people forget the
rights of the Palestine people we
shall never forget their rights.
"We shall follow the path of
union and we shall hoist the flag
of nationalism and unity. We shall
realize the rights of the Palestine
people as part of our holy march."
The Palestinians he referred to
are Arab refugees from the Pales-
tine war of 1948 now scattered in
Syria, Jordan and the UAR-ad-
ministered Gaza Strip.
Syrians gave Nasser a tumul-
tuous welcome as his plane arrived
from central Syria, where he has
been making a series of speeches.
Crowds broke through police lines
and embraced Nasser. Women
showered him with roses as he
drove through Damascus.
Nasser reviewed a 2-hour and
20-minute anniversary parade
with Field Marshal Abdel Hakim
"Amer Commander in Chief of the
UAR armed forces, and Shukrl
Kuwatly, President of Syria be-
fore the union with Egypt.

PENNSYLVANIA:
Suet Nixon'
In Election
WASHINGTON )-Sen. Hugh
Scott (R-Pa.) said yesterday peti-
tions will be filed today entering
Vice-President Richard A. Nixon's
name in the Pennsylvania Repub-
lican presidential preference pri-
mary.
Scott said Nixon was aware of
this intention by his supporters
and was pleased.
However, Nixon's office said the
Vice-President would not decide
until today whether to authorize
entering of his name in the pri-
mary.
Herbert G. Klein, the Vice-Pres-
ident's press secretary, told a re-
porter Nixon is discussing the
question with advisers.
"He won't make known his de-
cision until today," Klein said. He
added that decision probably
would be announced first by the
Pennsylvania Republican organi-
zation, as a matter of courtesy.
Scott issued a statement saying:
"I have been conferring with
the Vice-President for the past
several days. He is aware of what
we plan to do in Pennsylvania
and is pleased that his friends in
our commonwealth are exhibiting
their confidence in him in this
manner."
The Senator said that Lt. Gen.
Milton Baker, chairman of the
Pennsylvania Committee for Nix-
on, has approved the filing of the
petition.

Outmoded
NEW YORK () - A committee
of lawyers reported yesterday that
federal machinery is outmodedl
and ineffective.
A complete overhauling of con-
flict-of -interest regulations wasI
proposed. Such legislation is
scheduled to be introduced in
Congress today.
The findings came after a two-1
year study of the subject by a
special committee of the Assn. of
the Bar of the City of New York.I
The first comprehensive analysisI
of its kind, it was financed by a
$72,500 Ford Foundation grant.
"The legal and administration
machinery of the federal govern-<
ment for dealing with the prob-
lem of conflict of interest is ob-f
solete," the 500-page report said.
Procedures Faill
It said procedures not only fail
to protect the government from
favor-seeking tactics and outside
pressure, but also tend to keep
choice executive talent out of gov-
ernment service.
"A unified act should replace
outdated, scattered and uncoor-
dinated statutes that overlap and
are inconsistent," the report said.
Introduction of enabling bills is
scheduled in the Senate by Sens.
Jacob K. Javits and Kenneth B.
Keating (both R-N.Y.) and John
A. Carroll (D-Colo.), and in the
House by Rep. John V. Lindsay
(R-N.Y.).
Wait Too Often
Javits and Keating said in a
statement "Too often we tend to
wait until the headlines about one
person's unethical conduct hit us
right between the eyes before we
act. Here is a reasoned, practical
approach to the problem trans-
lated into specific legislative rec-
ommendations."
The proposed legislation would
forbid any gift to a government
employe from anyone doing busi-
ness with his agency.
Also, a government employe
could not legally accept any gift
at all if he had reason to believe
he would not have received it ex-
cept for his position.
On the other hand, the legisla-
tion would ease restrictions tend-
ing to prevent qualified men and
women from entering government
service because they are unwilling
to sever outside business interests.
Present regulations, the report
said, act as "a deterrent to the re-
cruitment and retention of execu-
tive talent and some kinds of
needed consultative talent."
The report said "Citizens who
serve the government only inter-
mittently," as short-term advis-
ers or consultants, should be
treated differently than regular
government employes.
The legislation would ban offi-
cial action by a government em-
ploye in any matter in which he
is personally interested.

DIRKSEN, JOHNSON:
Senate Leaders Support Ike
Statement on Defense Powe
WASHINGTON (N) -- Senate
Democratic Leader Lyndon B.
Johnson (Tex.) yesterday gave
qualified backing to President
Dwight D. Eisenhower's statement
that the United States has de-
veloped a powerful defense force."
And Senate Republican Leader
Everett M. Dirksen (111.) - also
commenting on Eisenhower's radio-
TV address to the nation Monday
night-said it would go far in dis-
pelling the confusion over the
state of America's defenses.
In his pre-departure speech be-
fore leaving on his Latin Ameri-
can tour, Eisenhower hit back at
critics of his defense policies. He
said this nation's nuclear bomber
strength and developing missile
power constitute "a trustworthy
shield of peace" beyond Russia's
ability to destroy it by sudden
attack.
Agrees on Power
Johnson, who heads the Senate
preparedness subcommittee, agreed
that this country has developed a
powerful defense force.
But he said Congress is going to
"continue to gather the facts on
the basis of which reasonable men
can make a prudent judgment as
to whether our plans are adequate
for our needs for the foreseeable
future."

You're invited to get the facts about Con Edison's growth and what it can mean
to you.
We're spending four million dollars a week to expand-over a billion dollars
in the next five years to find new and better ways to meet New York's demand
for vital electric, gas and steam services.
Our growth has increased the need in every department-technical and non-
technical-for creative, ambitious young men. And...of the 791 top management
positions in the company, 750 will fall vacant in the next fifteen years, mainly
through retirement. These jobs will be filled by the men who join us now. Our
