The article presents incidents of U.S. Politics. U.S. President Dwight David Eisenhower's radio-and-television address of September 19, with its massive emphasis on peace, measures the magnitude of the task that confronts another contender. Eisenhower has a made-to-order explanation in his illnesses for avoiding large mass meetings and rallies and relying on carefully staged solo radio-and-television appearances which provide an appropriate setting for dignified but informal talks. The Senate Internal Security subcommittee, chaired by Senator James Eastland, D. of Mississippi, will want to have a session with Senator Allen J. Ellender, D. of Louisiana, when the latter returns from a trip abroad that took him to the USSR and then to Korea and Formosa.
