get to the polls.
Mrs. Dorothy Diaz, chairman of
Young Democrats, released the,
following statement Friday:
The Lincoln Star quotes the
Young Republicans as admitting
there was an error in The Daily

GOP chairman showed further
ignorance of Nebraska laws when
he said that 'the GOPs are not
employees of any specific candi
date, nor do they constitute a
committee for any specific candi
date." 'The facts .are that the law
i (Section 32-1S1G) defines a po
or class of persons. . .shall be
deemed a political committee
within the meaning of Section 32
1901 to 32-1928.
Jack Devoe, Lincoln attorney
and Lancaster County Repub
lican chairman, said that this
section of the law does not con
cern the work of the Young
Republicans. He said Section
32-1128 specifically states:
"Nothing in this section shall
be construed to interfere with
conveying sick or- disabled per
sons who are not able without as
sistance to attend the election."
Mrs. Diaz issued a third charge

Truman Talks On Van Fleet Incident
PRESIDENT TRUMAN accused Gen. Dwight Eisenhower Of "im-

hower used a letter from Gen. James A. Van Fleet Tecommendmg
that the number of South Korean divisions be doubled.
Criticising Richard M. Nixon, GOP vice presidential candidate,
Truman said the senator has "an unsavory financial record" and a
"reactionary voting record."
In another speech Truman told Ohio audiences that Eisenhower
is placing "tax relief ahead of national security" by promising "huge
cuts in federal expenditures for national defense and aid for our
allies. This kind of budget cutting means a policy of weak defenses
here at home. It means weak defenses for Allies abroad.

the key campaign issues "Korea, Communism, corruption and pros

"administration brazenness." He pledged that if he is elected "thieves
will be readily caught and "scandal headlines will disappear from

Eisenhower again attacked Truman s recent remark that he 1s
"running the Democratic campaign for president." The general
asked: "Why do you suppose he thought he had to tell them.

However, the percentage was
lower than in the 1952 class elec

Eisenhower polled 1,385 votes
in his race against Governor
Stevenson. Eisenhower's mar
gin, 821 votes, was only slightly
more than the margins of other
Republican candidates- -and the
mock vote was a landslide for
the Republicans with one pos

In the only close race on the bal
