Page Two GREENSBURG; (IND.) DAILY NEWS Wednesday, Decemebr 19, 1951. Ikfe to Stay Out of Politics Until End of Jtffle 1 By William Theis (INS Staff Correspondent) Washington, Dec. 19. Eisenhower-for president leaders went ahead today with.plans to open Washington headquarters despite reports from Paris that the general will stay out of American politics until the end of June. Washington political leaders say that if Eisenhower fails to announce his availability for the Republican nomination for the presidency before Sen.

Robert A. Taft, Ohio, will, be nominated by an overwhelming vote at the Chicago GOP convention on the first ballot. Many Wasington observers are convinced now that Taft will be the nominee even if Eisenhower announced- tomorrow that he would accept the nomination.

A number of American diplomats told INS that Eisenhower decision to stay out of the GOP presidential jace until next June was' based on his efforts to win Prime Minister Winston Churchill over to the UN plan to place British troops in a European continental army. Promise to Churchill 1 Late dispatches announced that Churchill had promised British cooperation in' the forma- 'tion of the United Nations army in Europe. A few days ago Churchill that Britain would never participate in such a military force. At the Pentagon it has been an open secret for a week that Churchill would only promise British troop participation in the European UN army if Eisenhower would pledge himself to stay on the job until it is an accomplished fact. The Churchill pledge of British participation is interpreted in Washington's highest circles as proof that he has received a solemn promise from Ike to-stay out of the American presidential race.

Sen. Duff (R) a leader in the Eisenhower movement, said he could shed no light on reliable information from Paris that Gen. Eisenhower has virtually decided to remain at his post-until next summer and say nothing in the meantime to put himself in the presidential race. He said: "I have had no intimation of any such decision." Duff is among those GOP leaders who believes that the European commander must take some overt step before the July Republican convention to make it clear, he is a Republican and is available. Sen.

Welker (R) who is not yet committed to any candidate, had this reaction to the INS report from Paris that Ike is inclined to sit tight until next summer: "If the general waits until June or July to make himself available for either the Republican or Democratic nomination, his chances of winning either are totalling nil. "The people of the Republican party must have some one in mind carry their issues before the nation long before that time and wouldn't wait to that late date to make up their minds." Duff told INS that the Ike headquarters in Washington "definitely" will be opened this week. This office will be under the management of Sen. Carlson (R) another key leader in the drive. Other sources close to the Ike organization now forming said there has been no information from would "discourage" their efforts in any way.

They appreciate that he cannot jeopardize his present mission. Dressen Happy To Pilot Bfobte At "Any Price" By Howard Sigmand (INS Sports Writer) New York, Dec. new, humble Charley Dressen is happy enough to manage the Brooklyn Dodgers at "any price." Jolly Cholly's signed 1952 the salary figure left in the hands of the Dodger front office today. All President Walter O'Malley has to do is fill in the stipend Dressen will be set officially to try to undo that which is baseball history. O'Malley undoubtedly will allow Charley the same $25,000 or $30,000 he received last year.

The new Dressen sent his signed contract in yesterday from his California home. In an accompanying letter he said how glad he was to "be back at the helm of the best team in our league." Under the "old" Dressen this same "best" team blew a 13 Vz game lead and the National League Pennant. Second and even third guessing bewildered Brooklyn fans were out to get the cranium of their greateset manager since Burt Shotton. But the No. 1 Dodger O'Malley decided to give Chuck another chance.

In fact, when the Dodger prexy announced the rehiring of Dressen last month, he cleared him of the blame for the flag blowup. Dressen's apparently new philosophy may be the one which helped Leo Durocher to beat Brooklyn last year. When Duocher's miracle Giants were going through the rest of the National League like a holy terror in the crucial stretch run, the Lip unbuttoned humbly: "The story of this team is its players. They're great. They're fighting to win.

They won't quit. I'm nothing." Although he publicly placed himself in the background, everyone knew and saw what Leo's maneuvering had done. It paid off for the manager of the year. Also remembered is the attitude of blank contract Dressen when the Brooks appeared to be running like mad from the rest of the league. Dressen may turn out to be a "they" or at least a "we" man in 1952.

In any case, Dressen said he will be back in New York next month to receive an award from the Press Photographers Association. The photogs voted Cholly the easiest manager to work with last season.

Here are the main steps remaining to be taken before the- Allied war prisoners listed by the Communists in Korea actually can be returned and sent home. The Allies and Reds must agree to accept the prisoner lists they exchanged, a process that may require haggling over additions of names, deletions and revisions. They must agree on a basis for exchange prisoners, that is to say whether there shall be a blanket exchange of all listed prisoners or some other formula.

They must agree on a place or places where the prisoners shall be traded and on the agency which shall be entrusted with supervising the exchange. Then, after conclusion, of a full armistice, the prisoners must be transported by each side to the place or places of exchange. The prisoners returned to the Allies must undergo identification procedures and physical examinations at designated places in Korea Japan where they will be taken. Those needing it will be given medical treatment, special feeding and the like. The prisoners then will be taken to places of embarkation to be sent back home as transportation becomes available.

United Nations command officials have pointed out that the Red list of Allied prisoners is just a list and there is no way of knowing if all those on the roster are alive. Nor is there any way, as yet, of knowing what conditions they are in, if-alive.
