But he j easily weathered three confidence votes Thursday night and appeared fresh and confident when he strode to his front bench seat today. Opposition leaders immediately pounced op the prime minister in today’s debate. Hugh Gaitskell, Socialist leader, asked Eden whether he was prepared to accept the decision of the U. N. General Assembly in calling for a cease-fire in the Mid-East. Eden then made his reply that ne had not yet had time to study the U. N. request. Authoritative sources denied before start of the debate reports that Anthony Nutting, the minister of state for foreign affairs, may resign. Eden won an overwhelming vote of confidence in the Commons Thursday night on his policy of force against Egypt but “at least” 30 conservative members of parliament weie said to hold grave doubts about his actions.

WASHINGTON. (UP) — Prudent Eisenhower put aside his role of political campaigner today and concentrated on the grim task of preventing World War III.

From here cm out, the Chief Executive will leave to the Republican organization and hia political lieutenants the chore of completing his second term election campaign. Addressing himse! to the grave crisis in the Middle East, the President declared: “I shall continue to take all actions and decision in these times, rot as a candidate for office, but as President of all the United States.” He pledged to "practice the peace that we preach,” saying that “the only way to win World III is to prevent it.” Mr. Eisenhower had planned to wind up his campaign in Boston on election eve. But that plan was abandoned in the wake of the fighting in Egypt. He will, however, speak briefly on a GOP election even TV program, urging a big turnout at the polls next Tuesday. Mr. Eisenhower was interrupted 34 times by applause in his 28 minute Philadelphia speech. Mr. Eisenhower said Adlai E. Stevenso; ’s ^ posal for ending H-bomb tests and the draft posed the possibility of deadly weakness in a time of international peril. “We continue to build our strength, not to make war, but to be s]' a red it,” Mr. Eisenhower said. “We can judge today the need of this strength by a simple question. Would we today feel safe or secure as a nation if we, sometime ago hml ceased perfecting our military weapons and even abandoned our military draft?” There were shouts of “No! No” from the crowd. “That is no formula for peace,” he continued. “It is a design for disaster.” Two Britishers Play Lead Roles Two Britishers will play hurd roles in the DePauw University production of an English classic, Oscar Wilde’s “The Ideal Husband,” here Nov. 8-10.
