Eisenhower Pledges Housecleaning Job ( To Oust Appointed Federal Officials CHICAGO, UP r- Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower pledged today that if elected president he will drder a top to bottom house cleaning of appointed government officials. He told a wildly cheering 70-yote California delegation that “a united and properly led nation can do anything?’ Earlier he told Oklahoma delegates to the Republican national 1 “Everybody that’s in an appointive position should be cleaned out and replaced by a fresh group.” Eisenhower was making a lastditch bid for the votes of important convention i delegations which he needs to win the blazing fight over contested delegations and to go on from there to gain, the nomi nation. His campaign headquarters announced there has been no discussion of a vice presidential running- mate for Elsenhower. ‘ Eisenhower told the Californians he could offer “no panaceas for anything” and called for a “very deep, spiritual, and idealistic ded ication to\ the country" by all people. “My roots are deep in Republicanism. As a small boy in Dixon county. Kansas, we used to talg about a Democrat as we did the town drunk,” he said. “That, unfortunately, has changed a bit.” Asked if he owed any debts to Democratic administration, the general said: “I owe no debt to anyone except to aj great crowd of friends who have sugested that I would make a good president?’ Two Fathers Fined Under Curfew Law NOBLESVILLE, Ind., UP —Two fathers paid $25 fines and costs today, the first parents reprimand/ ed under the city's newly-revived-curfew ordinance requiring children under 18 years old to be off the streets by 10:30 p.m. fester Mobley and Devol Smith told City Judge C. V. \Malan they believed their sons, 10 and 13 years bld, were playing in the back yard. But police said the youth's were in' a lunchroom. Clear understandings mean long friendships.—McCracken.

Returns To States Center Os Domestic, Diplomatic Storm WASHINGTON, UP —Secretary of state Dean Acheson returns from a tour of Europe and Ljatin America today to face foreign policy issues certain to put administration authority at home and abroad to hedvy new tests. When Acheson left 17 ago for London, Berlin, Vienna and! Rio de Janeiro, Allied unity was Working smoothly. The Republican - party at home was quietly gathering its ammunition for hot foreign policy attacks during the GOP(convention and campaign. Upon his return late today. Acheson will find himself in the center T)f a domestic and diplomatic storm, GOP. keynoter Gen. Douglas .MacArthur struck at the .administration’s key policy of collective security, its “lack of courage” to prosecute the Korean War! and its "tragic errors" abroad. Despite any GOP modifications Jf the (MacArthur view, the administration now finds itself required to justify its foreign policies |t home. More impbrtant in the foreign field was congress’ to cp: foreign aid. funds from.'fire 000,000 requested by President Tinman to $6,031,000,000. This will sharply trim Acheson's ihflulence and bargaining power\ until he steps out of the.cabinet next January, To make his path more difficult.
