Ike Trimming Schedule For Quiet Holiday John Roosevelt Is Surprise Visitor At Ike Headquarters NEW YORK UP — Presidentelect Eisenhower started trimming his schedule today, locking forward to a quiet Christmas at home pinch-hitting for his son in Korea as daddy-by-proxy to three small grandchildren. The President-elect’s son, John, an army major, is on duty \in Korea, so his wife jirill bring their three children from Highland Falls, N. Y.. to the Eisenhower home herd to spend the holiday with their grandmother and grandfather. \ The grandchildren are Dwight David, 4; Barbara Anne. 3, and Susan, 1. J ' ''. . The President-elect’s schedule of appointments at his Commodore Hotel headquarters today includod only three persons. The first was Jack Gohndlly, head of the newsreel section of the “voice of America.” I I The second was with Hamilton Fish Armstrong, editor of the quarterly Foreign Affairs. The last was with Edward C. Jane- , way, of South Londonderry, Vt., who was elected Republican national committeeman . from Vermont after the national GOP convention last July. A surprise visitor'at Eisenhower headquarters ; tyt® Monday was John Roosevelt; youngest son of the late President Franklin D. Roosevelt. He supported the Eisenhower Tresidentiajf candidacy although his mother and .two of his brothers made campaign speeches for Democratic candidate Adlai E. Stevenson. Roosevelt, in answer to a question following his talk with the President-elect, said he thought Sisenhqwer’s cabinet appointments ere “wonderful.” He said he still was a registered Democrat but when asked if he intended to retain that status, Roosevelt smiled and said: “That’s an ‘iff question.’.’ He said that despite the campaign difference of opinion he was on fine,terms with the rest of his family and added that “we’re all independents and as such we’re entitled td oqr own opinions?’ He said he voted for Eisenhower bpt that he was \ not available for appointment to any office under the new administration and had not proposed anybody else* ! ——: 4 U. N. President In Optimistic View . Says Peace Effort Was Not In Vain UNITED NATIONS. N. Y. UP ~ General assembly president Lester B. Pearson’s opinion that the United Nations’ compromise Korean peace effort was not in vain found little substantiation in Communist reaction today. The Canadian external affairs minister, in a statement marking the end'of the fall session of the general assembly, said he was convinced that “the efforts which we have made have not been in vain and that they represent a major achievement in the history of the seventh session of the general assembly?* But Communist China?” which with North Korea peremptorily rejected the compromise peace offer passed by the general assembly, broadcast a protest to Pearson concerning the killing of 84 rioting . prisoners pound. Russia’s last-gasp propaganda protest on the Popgam incident was thrown out by the general assembly Monday following a marathon, 13-hour Sunday ' But Pearson, in his statement issued Monday night, appeared optimistic. L “Despite the reply from the Central People’s, Government and the North Korean Authorities ,ia- the peace offer?’ he said, ?1 am convinced that the efforts which we have made have not been in vain and that they represent a major achievement in the history of the seventh session. “For one thing, we would have failed in our responsibility to this world organization Wnd its principles had we not made the attempt. For another, it has been demonstrated that nearly all our members! were prepared to agree on a proposal which, consistent with U. N. principles, provided the basis for an armistice and eventual peace in Korea. JACKSON, <Miss.
