When he arrived at the entrance to the "National Field Days" where the crowd was expected to be 100,000 persons, the president's car passed a somewhat grisley exhibit which hit at Secretary of Agriculture Ezra T. Benson.

The exhibit consisted first of a small iron stove and pot, representing 1928; the next exhibit was a large modern tractor which another sign said represented "Roosevelt and Truman prosperity." Then there was a final exhibit—it appeared to be a bloody boot thrown over a small bale of hay and topped by a sign which said "trapped by Benson's Blunders."
One of the first persons Mr. Eisenhower met after his arrival on the contest grounds was Henry J. Steenhoek, a Republican farmer who has announced his intention to vote against Mr. Eisenhower this fall because of Benson.
It was on Mr. Steenhoek's farm that Mr. Eisenhower ate lunch in a huge tent, and spoke informally later in the afternoon.
WASHINGTON-(UP)-Adalian E. Stevenson packed his bags today for another campaign tour, charging President Eisenhower told "only half the facts" about the outlook for peace and progress.
The Democratic presidential nominee Thursday night replied sharply to the President's Wednesday night television talk.
Mr. Stevenson accused the President of making "misleading implications" when he talked about "and dismissed curtly" two of Mr. Stevenson's proposals, that the United States explore ways of halting hydrogen bomb tests and that it consider whether the military draft might be ended.
Mr. Stevenson told a crowd of about 3,800 that when President Eisenhower called the H-bomb proposal-a "theatrical national gesture" he "indicted not only me, but churchmen and political leaders the world over . . . who have made similar proposals."
The Democratic nominee said these leaders included Pope Pius XII, representatives of some protestant churches, and others.
Mr. Stevenson will leave Saturday on a 9-day plane trip covering almost 7,000 miles. His first speech will be delivered Saturday at a plowing contest in Newton, Iowa.
Latest Suez Plan To Give Aid For Bypassing Canal?
LONDON—(UP)—French newspapers said today the West's latest Suez plan provides financial aid to "certain countries" to pay the price
Hall Rules Out Union Meeting
"No board or commission has any authority to meet in any legal capacity with these union people," Gov. Hall said.
TOPEKA- (UP)—A meeting between newly organized union highway workers and state officials next Wednesday was emphatically ruled out by Gov. Fred Hall.
Adrain L. Mitten, regional director for the AFL-CIO state, county and municipal employee union, said he had requested that Frank Harwi, director of the 1,100-man highway department, meet with union leaders Wednesday.
The state has taken a hands off attitude in dealing with the union, which has signed up about 600 state workers in the last six weeks.
Integration Sought At Bonner Springs
TOPEKA-(UP)-A Kansas City Negro attorney filed suit in the state Supreme Court Thursday demanding integration of 24 Negro pupils in two allegedly segregated schools in Bonner Springs.
Chief Justice William A. Smith ordered the Bonner Springs school board to show cause on Oct. 15 why the pupils should not be admitted to the schools.
TOPEKA-(UP)-Dr. Thomas R. Hood of the State Health Department today attributed the "dramatic reduction" in the number of Kansas polio cases this year to the Salt polio vaccine.
Kansas Has Large Drop in Polio Cases
A total of 135 cases had been reported in Kansas through the week ending Sept. 17, which compares to a five-year average of 463 cases for the same period each year.
But Dr. Hood warned that adults should receive Salk shots, since 48 of the cases were persons over 20 years of age.
Does It Dance, Too?
POMONA, Calif.—(UP)—Crooner Elvis Presley has an unusual name-sake. A calf born at the Los Angeles County Fair last week has been named Elvis Presley because officials said "the animal has been bawling since it was born."
of bypassing the canal in an emergency. The United States presumably would supply the financial aid.
The Paris newspapers Le Monde and France-Soir printed what they said were paraphrases of the new constitution for the Anglo-French Suez "users' association" which is being drafted at the 18-nation conference in London.
Although the United States was not mentioned by name, Secretary of State John Foster Dulles is known to have promised to lend the dollars needed to pay for Western Hemisphere oil if the Suez crisis makes it necessary.
The users' association charter was drafted by an experts' committee Thursday and approved tentatively by a majority of the London conferences.
Britain and France have been pressing for outright grants of money from the United States rather than loans.
A British Foreign Office spokesman said shortly before the session began that two official papers would be put before the conference this afternoon—one formally setting up the users' association, and a declaration giving the conference view on United Nations action and appealing to Egypt to cooperate.
Pakistan's opposition to the proposal forced the conference to hold an extra peace-making session today.
KANSAS CITY, Kan—(UF)—A walkout of some 200 workers in four departments of the Armour & Co., plant here was staged today in a dispute overtime.
KC Armour Plant Workers Walkout
LOS ANGELES — (UP) — Police sought today a mysterious archer who shot a steel-tipped arrow from a crossbow into the back of a 20-year-old liquor store clerk.
Officials of local 15, United Packing House Workers of America, said the work stoppage was called because the firm did not penalize a clerk in the beef kill department for working overtime.
The clerk, William E. Allen, was felled Wednesday night by the 16-inch arrow fired from the medieval-type crossbow through the back entrance to the store. The arrow ripped through the victim's back into his chest.
The firm had an agreement with the union, a spokesman said, that there would be no overtime until a new contract is signed.
CHICAGO —(UP)— Packing house workers battened down today for a "long strike" against Swift and Company and went into negotiating talks with two other major meat packers.
Police Investigate Crossbow Shooting
Other Packers May Walk Out
Some 25,000 members of the United Packinghouse Workers and the Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen began picketing at 39 Swift plants in 26 states from coast to coast.
Mr. Allen was in critical condition at Maywood Hospital where doctors gave him blood transfusions. The broad-tipped arrow was pulled from Mr. Allen's back by a friend at the scene. His condition remained too serious to permit surgeons to operate.
Union negotiators met in Chicago with representatives of Wilson and Company and John Morrell and Company in contract sessions.
The Coolest Cat Of All
Union members walked out of Swift plants early Thursday to enforce demands for a union shop, a "substantial" pay hike and other benefits.
LOS ANGELES — (UP) — Mrs. Ruth Simms literally found a "cool cat." She opened her deep freeze and out popped her pet Siamese cat, which had apparently climbed in the day before. It suffered no ill effects.
Contracts with two other meat packers, Cudahy Packing Company and Hygrade Food Products Corporation, expired Sept. 1. The unions said employees of all six firms authorized strike action if negotiations fail.
No Way To Skin A Cat
BROMYARD, England — (UP) — Peter Snatchford, 11, accidentally dropped a lighted match. It landed on his pet cat. The cat, its fur burning, streaked into a barn filled with hay. It charged out again, singed, but no longer flaming. The barn burned for nine hours.

Enrollment Record Set At Pittsburg
Enrollment at Pittsburg State College for the fall term is 2,892 students, a record-breaking 27.3 per cent increase over last fall's enrollment of 2,272 students.
By UNITED PRESS
Missouri University has reported an increase of 637 students, boosting the total enrollment to over 9,400. This figure may be up another 100 or 200 as a result of late enrollment.
The university has provided housing for 500 more students. University officials said last year 1,000 students couldn't enroll because of a housing shortage.
Our English Class Was Never Like This
"What's a 'she?'" demanded one youngster.
LOS ANGELES—(UP)—Several school children were puzzled during a grammar lesson as to the proper use of "she" and "her" in conversation and writing.
Another student answered, "a female ewe."
Antibiotics Used To Keep Meats Fresh
CHICAGO — (UP)—A new process of using antibiotics to preserve freshness of meats has been introduced by the American Cyanamid Company.
Miller said the products, called Acronize, "will use the antibiotic combined with refrigeration to help put perishables such as red meats, fish and poultry into the same category as most other items in the modern supermarket."
"All that may be necessary," according to Dr. Wilbur H. Miller, of American Cyanamid, "is a quick spray or dip of the consumer cut with a solution of aureomycin chlortetracycline prior to packaging."
He said Acronize adds no taste or color of its own, cannot conceal inferior condition of the foods and was not devised to improve on original quality.
Strays Will Stray
PERU, Ind.—(UP)—The city gave up plans to pick up stray dogs. Angry citizens had broken all the windows in the building where the dogs were to be impounded.
