Says Israel Real Pivot Os Mideasf Urges Challenge On Disarmament Plans CHICAGO (UP)— Former Sen. Herbert Lehman (D-N.Y.) Sunday night urged a public and persistent challenge to the Soviet Union to join the free world in sponsoring a Middle East disarmament program. “Soviet influence and Soviet designs are . . . the chief threat to the security of Israel and of the Middle East," he said. "The maneuvers in this region among" the great powers, one against the other,” Lehman continued, “menace Israel and menace the peace of the area and of the world." Lehman addressed 25,000 persons in a "salute to Israel” 10th anniversary ““celebration festival" at the Chicago Stadium Former President Harry S. Truman had been scheduled as the : main speaker, but was forced to cancel bis appearance on the ad- ■ vice of his doctor. However, in a brief filmed ad- • dress, Truman callpd for "large i scale use of economic weapons" ; to curb Soviet influence in the ; Middle East. i The former President also said i no peace settlement between the s Arabs and Israel could be based on "whittling down Israel’s terrii tory or in tindermining her chances of stability and survival.” Lehman warned there is a "critical danger” that one of the great powers "might entertain the notion of sacrificing Israel, or some partof “israel,” to win sup- ■ port of the Arabs. Lehman termed Israel the “real i pivot” of the Mideast because it 3 is the "focus of the forces of freedom" in the area. Another speaker. Sen. Hubert - Humphrey (D-Minn.), urged that the United States ask the United Nations to discuss a Middle East "open skies" inspection system. He aid this proposal previouly uggested by Israel Prime Minister Ben Gurion, would be of "inestimable value for the cause of disarmament.” Export-Import Bank Head Loses Wallet BOGOTA, Colombia (W — Ex-port-Import Bank President Samuel Waugh lost his wallet to a pick-pocket during ceremonies honoring visiting Vice President Richard M.

Secretary of State Frank Marsh predicted a very light vote and said he believed voters were "extremely disinterested.” Sen. Roman L. Hruska, elected to a four-year term in 1954, was unopposed on the GOP ticket for the 1958 nomination. Seeking the Democratic nomination were former Rep. Eugene D. O’Sullivan Sr., Omaha; Lincoln attorney Frank B. Morrison, a frequent candidate for office, and Mike Kracher, Omaha businessman making his first venture into politics.

Democrat to be sent to Washington by the normally Republican stateThe state’s four congressmen were supremely confident, although there was- speculation that Rep. Phil Weaver might have trouble in the Ist District with energetic Carl Deitemeyer, Lincoln, a former farm newspaper editor. Weaver, however, was regarded the favorite even though his op-' position appeared stronger than that faced by Reps. Glenn Cunningham in the 2nd District, R.D. Harrison in the 3rd and A.L. Miller in the 4th. Cunningham was faced by i Omaha attorney John Dalton, and Harrison by Merle A. Haynes whom he defeated easily in 1958, and by Herman Christensen, a newcomer. Miller was opposed by Kenneth Gofobed, county attorney from Kearney, and Ralph Mead, Scottsbluff. A promising young attorney, Donald McGinley, Ogallala, was unopposed on the Democratic bal-, I lot in the 4th District- In the 3rd, Lawrence Brock, who almost upset Harrison in 1958, was a strong favorite over two opponents. Platts mouth attorney Francis Casey opposed a retired Navy commander, John Salistean, Omaha in the 2nd. In the Ist District, Clair A. Callan, an Odell farmer, was opposed by editor L.K. Cramb, Fairbury. Republican Gov. Victor E. Anderson was regarded a shoo -in over Louis H. Hector and the Democratic gubernatorial battle was between McCook School Supt. Ralph G. Brooks and Lincoln insurance executive Edward ADosek.
Army Demands Air Force And • Navy Speedup High-Speed Planes And Ships Demanded Os Air Force, Navy WASHINGTON OB — The Army publicly demanded today that the Air Fohce and Navy step up development of high - speed planes and ships for rushing troops overseas to defeat Communist aggression. It said there was an "increasing threat of limited wars” and an "alarming lack” of transport for atomic-armed ground forces which could stamp out such conflicts before they spread. The Army called for planes that could carry 700 troops 4.000 miles in eight hours. It said converted carriers could be used for moving wholie convoys of trucks and other equipment. \ Die service did not specify any particular trouble spots where it expected aggression. But it asserted the U. S. Army must increasingly be the tool to pinch off “the probing tentacles of Communist aggression wherever they may penetrate." The Army set forth its criticism of Air Force ami Navy readiness j for rapid group movement in a |
special issue of its official magazine, Army Information Digest. The Army chose that medium to air its long-standing grievance over allegedly inadequate troop transport instead of using speeches, news conferences or “leaks”— all of which might incur displeasure under the new Pentagon plan for central control of public information to hold down service disputes. The Army claim that airlift power is inadequate has been denied by the Defense Department and the Air Force, which contend that planes are available for as many as would be moved under, joint war plans.
