Eisenhower Casts Pennsylvania Vote Helicopter Flight From Washington GETTYSBURG, Pa. <UP> — President Eisenhower voted in 24 seconds today and the speed with which he cast his ballot in a rural fireman’s hall not far from his farm here indicated all-out support of the Pennsylvania Republican ticket. The President made a speedy helicopter flight from Washington, alighted outside the Barlow firemen's hall, voted, posed for pictures and was back on his way to the White House in an elapsed time on the ground of only 11 minutes. If the President was at all confident about the outcome of today's balloting, he showed it only when he twice flashed the V-for-victory sign with his hand from the window of his helicopter as it took off for the return trip to Washington. Eisenhower not only cast his own ballot, but brought five other Pennsylvania voters with him including his son and daughter-in-

Loans For College Students By Spring Hurry School Aids To Early Operation WASHINGTON (UPD -College students can begin drawing on a new multi-million dollar federal loan fund by next February. Other school aids authorized by the last Congress also are being hurried into operation by the government in an effort to meet the challenge of Soviet technological competition. Arthur S. Flemming, secretary of health, education and welfare said money for most of the programs would be available to states and educational institutions by January or February. This includes funds for the college student loans, guidance and counseling services and for science and mathematics teaching equipment. Flemming said federal outlays for awarding graduate fellowships and for operation of foreign language centers and institutes would be available in the spring of 1949. The secretary told a news conference Monday that the program was one of the “most exciting” developments that has taken place in education, going far beyond original expectations. Flemming said he oould not forestall whether the National Defense Education Act of 1958 would be the complete answer to Soviet technological competition. But he added, “it does represent a real contribution toward strengthening our educational system.” He strongly advocated an agreement on “national goals” in education on federal, state and local levels.

NATION PICKS (Continued from page one) Ike To Gettysburg President Eisenhower planned to journey by helicopter early today to Gettysburg, Pa., to cast his vote and return to the White House. Nixon, who voted bv absentee ballot in the California contest last week, was living back to Washington from Alaska where he spent the weekend campaigning. When the new Alaskan members are seated, a party will need at least 50 seats to control the Senate and 219 in the House. Geography worked against the GOP in the Senate races. The Democrats have 36 senators whose seats are not at stake this year against 26 for the Republicans. Os the 13 Democratic seats being filled today, six are “safe" Southern seats and six others are held by Democrats elected during the Eisenhower landslide of 1952. The 13th is Sen. William Proxmire of Wisconsin, who was elected in a special election last year. GOP Seats Endangered In contrast, at least 15 of the Republican Senate seats at stake today are in battleground states where GOP candidates are in danger These states arp in Arizona. California, Connecticut, Indiana. Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada. New Jersey, New York, Pensylvania, Utah, West Virginia <two seats) and Wyoming. The Democrats are not even conceding the Senate seat being filled in Vermont, which has not elected a Democratic senator since the Civil War. The 1958 campaign has been marked by Democratic charges that the Eisenhower administration failed to provide necessary leadership to deal with foreign policy and with domestic economic problems. Led by the President, the GOP replied that the nation has enjoyed six years of peace and prosperity under the Eisenhower administration and that the Democratic Party is dominated by “radicals” and spendthrifts.
