Moore Disappointed Over Letters Sent Small Percentage Os TV Listeners NEW YORK (INS) — Television star Gerry Moojre said today that he was “a little disapopinted” over the amount of money-bearing letters a pretty Mt. Pleasant Mich, housewife had received as the result of his suggestion that each of his viewers hgnd Beb a nickel, “After all,”*he told International News Service indignantly (but wittf tongue in cheek), "I have millions of listeners and she’s only gotten some 100,000 letters. That's a pretty small percentage.” But Moore isn't mad at anybody. "The thing that pleases me most,” he said, “is the fact that the people who are writing are getting nothing out of it. I mean . . . well, if a sponsor gives something away on his show, he's pleased to get 25,000 responses. .Here you have over 100,000 responses s d the writers aren't getting a thing.” He doubted the estimates that Mrs. Margaret Deibel would gather 1100.000 in "gifts.” saying it would come closer to the $25,000 mark. Mrs. Deibel was vacationing in New York last Friday when Moore picked her from his studio audience as the beneficiary of his wish “to make at least one of my fans rich.” He was so impressed when Mrs. Deibel, 26, the mother of a small son and daughter, declared that she and her appliance salesmanhusband liked to stand on their own feet with no financial help from anyone that he asked each member of the audience to send a nickel to the sunky couple. That sent the nickels, and in some cases dollars, rolling . from around the country into their small mid-Michigan town. Police at first guarded their home and then decided to transfer the growing mail fortune to the city jail where it nearly filled a locked cell. < “I was a little worried about the incident at first,” Moore said. “One hundred thousand dollars can be dangerous. But, they’ll probably get around $25,0000. That'll be nice . . . with that kind of money they can make a down payment on a nice bouse and send the kids to college. That kind of money won’t mkae a bum out of anyone. He explained that the sudden idea to • reward the Deibels was actually “a three-point project” along the following lines: 1. To satirize shows ‘t'bat exploit human misery.” 2. “In doing this for the Deibels you are saluting 99 percent of the citizens who face their own problems and lick them.” 3. "And it’s just a helluva lot of fun to make someone tremendously happy.” CROSS BORDER (Continued fT<»m Page One) News Agency tn a report broadcast by Peiping radio said Sunday night that Dixon, Applegate and Krasner had been ordered “deported” after admitting they "intruded” into Red Chinese coastal waters.

Nixon To Keynote Ohio Convention Urges Election Os GOP Congress COLUMBUS (INS) — Vice President Richard M. Nixon asserted today that the Maine election should serve >s a spur for Republicans to work for an Eisenhower congress this fall. Nixon said he felt the Maine election had little national significance but showed that Republicans must unite behind Republicans in other states. Arriving in Columbus to lead the campaign for a Republican victory in Ohio, the vice president cited Ohio as one of the keynote states where the party hopes to pick up a senatorial seat and perhaps several congressional seats. Nixon was scheduled to keynote the GOP state convention in a televised address between 8 and 9 p.m. EST tonight. “If Republicans suffer a defeat in the congressional elections,” Nixon said, “it means the Eisenhower program will have tough sledding the next two years «>and could nave disasterou* effect* in 1956.” He pointed out several factors in the Maine .election which he felt lessened the significance. For one thing, the old slogan that “As Maine goes so goes the nation" is no longer valid. He also felt the issues there were strictly local and accounted for Sen. Margaret Chase, Smith’s smaller margin this election by the fact that she had stiff opposition compared with the “real turkey” she ran against the last time. Nixon's appearance before Ohio Republicans is the first of 13 stops in his nation-wide campaign on behalf of congressional candidates.

Increase In Meat Marketing Seen Marketing Increase Rest Os September WASHINGTON (INS)—The ag‘ rtculture department reported' today that the Labor Day holiday caused a moderate decline in meat production last week but predicted increased marketings for the rest of this month. in weekly report, the department estimated total meat production under federal inspection at 318 million pounds. This was nine percent belojv the previous week and the lowest rate since the Memorial Day week. However, the department noted that output wav 11 percent higher than a year ago and said that marketings of cattle, calves, and ■hogs was on the upswing as compared with the same period last year. Predictions of rising meat output coincided with reports that farmers will produce $1 million turkeys this year, the highest to history and nine percent more than 1953'» big crop. The department says: "another turkey record this year was the number of bird's that went to market early. By the first of August about six million birds of this year's crop had been marketed compared with five million at the same time last year. "The heavy early-eeaaon marketing was made possible by the much larger early hatch this year and by the fact that consumers nowadays buy turkeys at all reasons." Meanwhile, the department stepped up its campaign against the western drought — one of* the main factors which - has forced farmers to speed up cattle marketings to some areas. Agriculture secretary Ezra Taft Benson designated 93 counties in six western' states as drought disaster areas but refused to recommend federal aid to areas of- North Carolina and South Carolina. The latest actions bring to 114 the number of counties in eight western states which have been made eligible for easy credit and cut-rate grain prices under the emergency relief program.

Total defense spending has fluctuated much leas, because payments continue to be made on long-term contracts and for salaries and operating expenses. Officials said, however, that it is the new orders -which are .most likely to affect the business barometer, because each commitment means that the firm receiving it must buy materials and hire people. The permanent level of U. S. defense spending, if military forces are maintained at more than 3,000,009 men, is expected to be 33 to 34 billion dollars a year, but the rate will be somewhat higher for at least the next several years.
