He stood bareheaded in an open car and- flashing his broad, winning smile — waved back at crowds which lined routes of his motorcades. His answer to chants of “We Like Ike," was an equally sincere, ‘T Like you. too." White House aides still said the campaign tour wasn't barnstorming. which Mr. Eisenhower had

He said that the value of the property involved was close to >300,000 and that is was largely in motor vehicles not reported.
