Mr. Truman wired his invitation to Gen. Eisenhower at the Brown Palace Hotel in Denver It was delivered yesterday morning, the White House said.

The telegram said:

“I would be most happy if you would attend a cabinet Juncheon next Tuesday the’ 19th. If you want to bring your press secretary and any other member of your staff I'll be glad to have them. “If you can arrive at about 12:13 I'll have Gen. Smith and the Central Intelligence Agency give | you a complete briefing on the foreign situation.

Gen. Eisenhower told Mr. Truman in a 300-ward telegram he felt that under - present circumstances any communications. be-

He thought it would be “unwise and result in confusion in the public mind” if he were to attend a White House meeting. The GOP nominee thus took a position contrary to that of Gov. ‘Adlai Stevenson of Illinois, Dem-! ocratic presidential- candidate, who attended a White House cabinet meeting and foreign policy briefing Tuesday.

proper to do so. No Emergency

Gen. Eisenhower reminded Mr. Truman that the problems suggested for discussion were those with which he, as a military man and former supreme commander of allied forces in Europe, had “lived for many years.” But he said he would “instantly” change his position in the event of a grave emergency. “There is nothing in your message to indicate that this is presently the case,” Gen. Eisenhower said. -

The GOP nominee did accept one offer of Mr. Truman's. He said he would welcome the weekly report of the Central Intelli-

gence Agency. The head of this)

agency, Gen. Walter Bedell Smith, was one of those who participated in the briefing of Mr. Stevenson. Gen. Eisenhower made it clear that he did not want to be put in the position of limiting himself in any way hy possession of the intelligence reports. “In line with my view that the American people. are- entitled to all.the facts in the international situation, save only in those cases where the security of the United States is involved, I would want it understood that the prossession of these reports will in no other| way limit my freedom to discuss or analyze foreign programs as my judgment dictates,” he said. In his statement criticizing Mr. Stevenson's visit to the White House, Gen. Eisenhower had specifically objected to the briefing by military and national security authorities. He said this “implied a decision to involve responsible non-politi-cal officers of our government who bear heavy responsibilities in our national defense organigation into a political campaign in which they have no part.”
