S. note protest ing against what the United States called the forcible deten tion of the wives <rf two Ameri can Embassy officials. The U .S. Embassy in Moscow takes an extremely grave view of the incident, feeling that it strikse at the basic issue of '.ie personal sfaety of American dip lomatic personnel in Russia. (In Washington, the State De partment said the women were held by Russian police fdr ap proximately an hour and a half Monday “in violation of general ly accepted diplomatic pracke hat prohibits the arrest or de tention of persons having rec ognized diplomatic status." (U. S. otffocials said the Soviet government countered the U. S- protest by accusing one of the wives, Mrs. Earl E. Sommerlatte, for rowdy behavior—and de- of “hooliganism”—a Soviet term manding her recall by the United States. Mrs. Sommerlatte is the wife of the embassy’s second sec retary. (The other woman involved in the incident was identified as the -Wife of Marine Lt. ol. Houston Stiff, assistant naval attache at the embassy.) U. S. Ambassador Charles E. Bohlen hearu aoout the incident Monday when he returned from lunch.« He immediately notified the State Department in Wash- The New Sensation!

After receiving authority from Washington, Bohlen sent a first- person note to Soviet Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov. Late yesterday, the Soviet For eign Office summoned U. S. Min ister Walter Walmsley. When he appeared at the office, the head of the protocol section, M. Kisilev, read him a statement setting forth the Soviet position on the case. Walmsley termed the state ment a “fabrication” and re fused to accept a written copy of the oral statement in which the Soviet government said Mrs. Sommerlatte was “no longer de sirable" in the Soviet Union. Observers Credit Ike With Help Dinner’s On The Way Washington — President Eis enhower was credited today with making some headway for Re publican candidates but there was disagreement as to whether his late burst of campaigning will succeed in electing a GOP ongress next Tuesday. Democratic and Republican ob servers agreed generally that the President’s appearances— which may be expanded on flying trip late this week—have hleped to stimulate interest in the congres sional campaign. The President, under urging from GOP leaders to undertake a bamstoming trip into six or seven states late this week, may announce his decision at a news conference today, his first here since August 17. There was speculation such a trip would include Detroit, Louisville, Ky., Waterloo, Iowa, Wilmington, Del, and possibly a stop in Ohio. All those states Minneapolis, Minn., Boston and have close Senate races. Democrats did not seriously dispute Republican claims that the President is making votes for his party’s Senate and House candidates. But they did con tend Eisenhower’s late cam paigning is not of sufficient weight to overcome what they call a general Democratic trend. Deputy National Chairman Clayton W. Fritchey said Demo crats fame a virtual news black out in the closing days of the campaign. Fritchey said in an interview the Republicans are using the President to “obtain domination of the newspapers and the air ways" and crowding the Demo crats off the front pagse. He “Net that I want to stick my neck oat,” said Mr. Tom Tarkey, inter viewed recently at DoVaalt’s Farm, Romney, Indiana, “bat to me. Thanksgiving is strictly for the birds.” Here Tom and his friends gobble for a last meal of palatable feed served from handy W-lb. mnltiwall paper bags by James DeVault, Jr. and his helper. HALLOWE'N, WHEN THE GHOSTS WALK (Editorial The Easley Progress) The fall political air has brought out a number of skele tons in advance of All Saints Day or Hallowe’en. First came Neville Bennett, a Lochihvar out of the East, who once bid fair to rise high in South Carolina poli tics. After a lapse of years, we find suddenly many opinions from Bennett favoring the Com mittee of 31 method of nomina tion. And look who’s standing over there—another fiugure out of the past—none other than Ran- some J. Williams, Governor by accession, avowed wet and leader of the Truman faction when South Carolina voted heavy for Strom Thurmond for President Well, since Little Orphan Annie is looking in the attic let’s look a little more up there where all the self-styled great Democrats go. As October 31 nears, here comes fluttering over the fields and pines of old States Rights land the ghost of former glory, Mr. General Harry Vaughn, of deep freeze memory, the funny boy of the Truman Era. Harry, the General, makes like he is still mouthpiece for Harry, the Great, and he says both he, Harry the Lesser, and Harry, the Great, are for Edgar Brown, because , we are 3 great Democrats togeth er. Go way! Says Edgar, Yan kee Democrats and Truman are poison down here. Go way! I don’t know you. Those Green ville newspapers, that won’t even put in a line when South Caro lina’s Great Democrat comes to Greenville, schemed up with you ti do this to me. I love your praise of me as a Democrat, but don’t even whisper it now! Har ry Vaughn says that Harry Tru man, President Truman, thinks it nobler to commit murder 6r commit rape than go back on the national Democrat Party that Truman represented. Well, ■ as South Carolina went by great majority for Thurmond for Pres ident over Harry Truman, that makes Harry I and II rate us be low murderers and rapists. No wonder those little ghost helpers are not wanted in the Brown camp. But they say they would love to have him as Senator. Ghosts, please stay in the attic until after November 2. said this is bound to have some effect, but that reports from in dividual races still indicate his party will win control of both houses of Congress. Democratic National Chair- man Stephen A. Mitchell asked networks yesterday for free time the national television ana raaio to match that given Eisenhower for what the White House call ed “no-poliitcal” speeches. The air time request was granted by the NBC and reject ed by the CBS and ABC. Use Your Right To Vote On November 2 WRITE-IN STROM THURMOND DEMOCRAT for the U. S. SENATE HERE'S HOW TO DO IT!
