"ianta Claus bag lull of aright but empty promises for every segment of our society." NOT KIDDING ANYBODY "We don't believe in kidding anybody," Nixon said In a speech "especially those people who have worked hard all their lives and saved their money either personally or through paycheck deductions." The speech had advance billing from Nixon campaign aides as a "major" utterance on the Republican social security program. The five pledges Nixon made in the field of social security: "1. The Eisenhower dollar will remain stable and steady, because a rubber dollar is no foundation on which to plan for the future. "2. More and better jobs for old Khrushchev, the Soviet Commu nist party boss, is reported at odds it with old Stalinists in the Kremlin who think he has gone too far in downgrading Stalin.

This followed the pattern set in contracts signed earlier this week with other major packers who were not struck by the two unions, the Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen and the United Packinghouse Workers.

However, the company did not give in on the unions' request for a union shop, or at least a modified version of one. A statement by the two unions said: "The strike will be ended at 10 a.m. (CST) Sunday. A conference to ratify the agreement will be held jointly by the two unions in Chicago on Oct. 7.

"Since the strike began nine days ago Swift has been obliged to Improve its offer in 19 important areas. Among these are greater wage increases, improved sick pay benefits, separation pay for technologically unemployed, special raises for hundreds of jobs to eliminate inequities, reduction of geographical wage differentials and Improved vacations."

That statement, he said, demonstrated Stevenson's "appalling lack of knowledge about the structure of the federal government which he is so eager to head." The facts, he said, are that the Social Security Administration alone has almost 20,000 persons "working primarily on income maintenance programs for older people," and the National Health Institutes and the Public Health Service employ 5,000 scientists and staff workers in research on ailments primarily associated with the aged. ing them against embracing roslh iim Xitoism" toa wholeheartedly.

The plane disappeared in a snowstorm Friday afternoon en route from Rawlins to Afton. It was discovered Saturday by air and ground rescue crews and the bodies were removed to Kemmer-er, 50 miles south of the crash site. Dead are John Toscan, 36, the pilot; Jack Vagner 37, manager of radio station KRAL in Rawlins: and Bert Rand, about 20, commercial manager of the station.

Toscan, who owned the plane and had been flying for almost two years, was piloting Vagner and Rand to Afton where they planned to broadcast a high school football game. Heavy, wet snow prevented the search parties from locating the wreckage Friday. However two QUESTION UNIFIED COMMAND While most of the Air Force equipment suppliers agreed with Gen. Browne's statement that centralized power in a unified defense system was an economic system cf defense, some questioned the wisdom of the very heart of our defense system.

4) Quake Early Sunday TOKYO (J) Tokyo was rocked by an earthquake at 8:20 a.m. local time Sunday. The quake rattled windows and could be felt even in moving automobiles for about two minutes. There was no immediate report of damage or fire. The Central Meteorological Observatory tentatively placed the quake's center at about 30 miles northwest of Tokyo, in rural Sai-tama prefecture.

Rand, who ran a florist shop in Rawlins in addition to his duties at the radio station, is survived by his widow and four children. Toscan was unmarried. He was employed as a brakeman for the Union Pacific Railroad. He was a candidate for election to the Rawlins City Council in the November election. The air search was led by Wyoming Aeronautics Director George Nelson.

The ground search was headed by Lincoln County Sheriff Earl Ellsworth. payroll deduction, citizens are asked to be generous in their contributions. While no worker presumes to tell any citizen what he should give, often workers are asked for advice as to a proper amount. For this reason the slogan for 1957 has been adopted: it is something to shoot at and individuals are free to make their own decisions. During the past week much of the material for the drive has been distributed and will be out to workers by the beginning of the drive, including pledge cards and placards which are appearing all over town to remind everyone to "Give the United Way." During the drive, speakers will address many organizations to explain the United Fund.

Any group desiring such a speaker may make arrangements by calling United Fund headquarters, which is now established on the mezzanine of the Henning Hotel. Or a card addressed to Box 2046 will reach headquarters. OFFICE AT HENNING Here it may be pointed out that anyone who would like to make his cwn donation directly to United Fund headquarters is welcome to drop in at the office in the Henning Hotel on the mezzanine; or they may drop their donation in the mail, addressed to Box 2046 for the United Fund.

A group of technicians did not echo Gen. Roger J. Browne's statement that preparation for the "big war" would keep small wars flaring up all over the world.

Those civilian technicians, while not wanting to be directly quoted, said that the lack of equipment and manpower of the air force reserve was a matter of grave concern to them. They also said that while the equipment used by the reserve was what the Air Force did not need, it is not enough to man the complete Air Force Reserve, short as it is in manpower at present. While not openly disagreeing, with the statement of Gen. Browne that a strong Air Force would stop Russia from any sort of adventure they still doubted that an air force geared to a super sonic high speed war would stop Russia from more Koreas.

Twice before. Stevenson's charges had been denied officiary at news conferences by both Dulles and Eisenhower. In the memorandum, Dulles said Stevenson's statement that Dr. Eisenhower assumed special responsibility for relations with Argentina "is completely 'untrue." He did not mention Stevenson by name, but referred to him as "or.e of the candidates in the present campaign." Dulles said Dr. Eisenhower "has generously made himself available when either you or I have requested." But, he added, he has "never been asked to assume, nor has he assumed, any of the responsibilities customarily borne by the Department of State in the field of four inter-American relations." As for Stevenson's charge that "an American ambassador" was kept in Buenos Aires because Peron "liked him," Dulles said "this ztatement is also untrue." WASHINGTON LP) Secretary of State Dulles said Saturday recommendations Dr.

Milton Eisenhower made in 1953 have "constituted the basis of our policy toward Latin America." But Dulles described as "completely untrue" Adlai E. Stevenson's charge this week that the President's brother had 'assumed special, if informal, responsibility for our relationship with Argentina." "That responsibility has been borne by me and by my associates in the Department of State." Dulles said in a mem-orandurn made public by the White House President Eisenhower told his news conference Thursday he had asked for the full report on his brother's connections with the State Department and said then Milton Eisenhower had never had a hand in making foreign policy. Stevenson, the Democratic nominee for president, told a Miami, campaign audience last Tuesday night the Eisenhower government's policy in Argentina was a "dismal example" of its activities elsewhere in Latin America and in other areas of the world Stevenson also accused the administration of appeasing Argen The Republicans in the races where their hopes are highest, are pitting former Secretary of the Interior McKay against Morse, New York Attorney General Jacob K.

The Wyoming Highway Patrol said the 131st death, the present count, was not recorded last year until Dec. 2. If the state is to remain under the 1955 figure, there must be only 11 more deaths, patrol officials said.

Drop in Consumption Of Meat Is Forecast CHICAGO Americans will not eat as much meat per capita in 1957 as they did this year, it was forecast Saturday at a meeting of the American Meat Institute.
