Shivers Cheered
In Texarkana Talk
By The Associated Press
TEXARKANA, Tex. — Former
Gov. Allan Shivers, Democrats-for-
Nixon Chairman in Texas, received
a five-minute standing ovation
Tuesday when he brought the Re
publican campaign to this border
city.
Shivers drew an estimated 1,000
persons to a luncheon rally—which
J. Q. Mahaffey, editor of the Tex
arkana Gazette and News, called
the largest luncheon crowd in Tex
arkana’s history.
Mahaffey and C. M. Kennedy,
an attorney who introduced the
former governor, said Shivers
drew a better crowd than former
President Harry S. Truman, who
campaigned in the same Texarkana

Shivers was interrupted eight or
10 times by applause and then was
given the five-minute ovation.
In his speech, the former gover
nor who also supported the Re
publican ticket in 1952 and 1956
declared that the tide has turned
toward the Republicans in Texas.
He declared he formed this view
from opinion polls and his own ob
servations.
Shivers reminded the Texarkana
audience that Texans may vote as
they choose in the general elec
tion, voting solidly for one party
or splitting the ticket for the GOP
national candidaates and local
democratic candidates.

Disarmament Given Top
Billing In United Nations
By The Associated Press
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y.—The
U.N. General Assembly’s main Po
litical Committee agreed Tuesday
to give disarmament top billing on
its list of hot East-West issues for
debate.
Both the United States and the
Soviet Union agreed to that course
—but actual prospects remained
dim for any immediate break in
the long-standing deadlock on ac-
t u a 1 disarmament negotiations.
After long procedural wrangling
the committee gave second spot
to President Eisenhower’s African
aid program and third to the ques
tion of independence for Algeria.
Agreement to put disarmament
ahead, of everything else in the 99-
nation committee came after a sur
prise proposal from newly inde
pendent Nigeria that the Eisen-

To Address
Engineers
Charles R. Foster, Coordinator
of Research, National Bituminous
Concrete Assn., will be the fea
tured speaker at a monthly meet
ing of the Bryan chapter of the
Texas Society of Professional En
gineers tomorrow night.
“Aims and Objectives of the
Ten-Point Quality Improvement
Program of tjhe National Bitumi
nous Concrete Assn.,” will be the
topic of Foster’s address.
The meeting is scheduled at 7:30
in the Assembly Room of the Tex
as Highway Department Building
in Bryan.
The national office of the Bi
tuminous Concrete Assn, was only
recently moved to the A&M cam
pus and the appearance of Foster
will be one of his first on the lo
cal scene.
Other business to be conducted
at the meeting will include the
election of a nominating commit
tee for the local chapter of the
association.
'hower program be given the No.
1 spot.
Satisfied
But after the United States, the
Soviet Union and a number of
other nations stressed the desire
to see disarmament taken up first,
the Nigerian delegate, Jaja Wac-
huku, said he would be satisfied to
have issues related to Africa
dropped to second place.
U.S. Ambassador James J.
Wadsworth expressed hope that

portunities of a career in the Army
and explain the missions and func
tions of the Signal Corps.
Anyone that is interested in mak

Demo Students
For Dick Nixon
Club Planned
Jack M. Terry, National Chair
man of the Studpnt Democrats for
Nixon Clubs, has announced the
formation of a branch of the club
on the A&M campus.
Lewis O. Woodward, a graduate
student, has been chosen chairman,
while other officers are John Dun
can, William D. Edman, Jack E.
Little and James W. Snelgrove.
Similar clubs are located at Abi
lene Christian, North Texas State,
South Texas Law School, South
western Baptist Theological. Semi
nary, T C U, the University of
Houston and Texas University.
Eisenhower’s proposal be placed as
high as possible on the commit
tee’s work schedule. But he said
the United States had already
made clear in assembly debate it
gave disarmament top priority.
Eisenhower proposed in his as
sembly speech Sept. 22 that the
United Nations consider a . broad
program for the independence and
development of the newly inde
pendent African nations.
Wadsworth said the United
States would present a prelimi
nary outline of ideas that might
be included in such a program. He
indicated other members of the
committee, especially the African
representatives, would have to be
consulted before definite plans
could be presented.
17-Day GE
Strike Halted
By The Associated Press
NEW YORK —Leaders of the
17-day strike against the General
Electric Co. Tuesday called for an
end of the walkout this week.
They told their negotiators to ac
cept whatever terms they see fit.
The top bchelon of the Interna
tional Union of Electrical Work
ers added in its directive to the
negotiators: “If the negotiating
committee is unable to conclude a
settlement by Oct. 23, another con
ference board meeting will be held
Oct. 26.”
The conference board is com
posed of leaders of- all 1LE locals
in General Electric.' It ‘i§ the gov
erning body of the union in a
strike situation.
In waiving its prerogative of de
ciding on settlement terms, the
board made it possible for the ne
gotiators to accept GE truce terms
which already have split the union.

Clearing the hurdles with research
At Gen Tel, we've made a running start toward solving
many of tomorrow’s communications problems.
For instance, scientists at General Telephone & Elec
tronics Laboratories are working in the uncharted area
of the spectrum where radio waves take on the character
istics of light. They have already developed an experi
mental ultramicrowave system that may one day make
possible the transmission of two million messages on
a single radio beam in free space.
As a major communications company with world-wide
connections, General Telephone is helping to advance
the science of total communications around the globe.
Our stepped-up research in the basic sciences is but
one example of the way General Telephone & Electronics
combines the talents of many people and the facilities
of many companies to meet the future communications
needs not only of America, but the whole world v
