business with the State of Illinois -Campaign headquarters of the Republican presidential nominee withheld any immediate comment on the accounting of the! fund which showed $18150 was given to eight key employes to augment their state salaries But it was certain that aides of Gen Dwight Eisenhower would go over1 the list of donors with a fine-tooth comb' looking for people who may have been selling supplies or services to any state agracies -or institutions -7 since Stevenson became Governor in 1949 7- Pressure On General Hie Eisenhower people also were aware of the fact that the former five-star general will have to come up with a detailed statement of his financial position including how he profited from a tax ruling on the sale- of his hook in The pattern fra such intimate disclosures was set by his running mate Senator Richard Nixon as part of his proof that he profit personally from an $18000 political fUnd raised by California friends Stevenson and his running mate Senator John Sparkman plan to release their income tax returns fra the last 10 years thereby hurling a challenge to Eisenhower to do the same tax advantage on sale of the book came through -a ruling by: the Bureau of Internal Revenue that he could declare the income as capital gains where fiie rate was only 25 per cent instead of straight income where the rate runs much higher 7 May Have Got Million It has been widely reported Eisenhower got: one -million dollars fra all rights -to his memoirs of World War netting $750000 after taxes Straight income taxes would have 'reduced that aipount considerably-- But there are some indications that when Eisenhower does publish his account of the Affair the profit will run much lower possibly less than half a million dollars Friends of Eisenhower also can be expected to point out that he voluntarily waived the more than $18000 a year military income to which he was entitled as a five-star general when he entered the political' arena He later resigned his commission after receiving the Republican presidential nomination While the battle over special political funds and financial position of the candidates raged Eisenhower planned a quiet

the last They sent Pat Shires over the line in the second period And with 11 minutes and 50 seconds of the fourth quarter gone they took it all on a magnificent pair of plunges by the great Andy Kdzar Twice Vic Kolenki added the extra point But this was a and sometimes flustered Vol team for a large part of the game and when Zerk Wilson scored on a fine 31-yard run in 5:45 of the third quarter there was an upset aroma lingering in the torrid air For Jack Parker added the extra point and a tie for State would be solid shocker Then to the distress of a hope-fill horde of State supporters there was a fumble a Tennessee pounce nri the opportunists that Gen Bob Neyland sends out to play football got the big score The fright that State threw Into the Vols twice reached into hysteria On

in the use of campaign funds to make gifts to state employes and in apparent reference to Senator Richard Nixon of California Republican vice presidential nominee added: 'I do not consider it Nixon had demanded Stevenson give details of the fund in a radio-TV nationwide speech explaining his acceptance of an $18000 expense fund made up from contribu- tions by wealthy Californians answer to repeated Republican demands that he detail the disbursement of the fund and identify the contributors was made in a lengthy statement documented by an audit which the Governor said was made May 20

improve the quality of public administration in and that the largest was $7900 given to his present press secretary William Flanagan Flanagan was superintendent of the State Department of Reports
