Iillieport Gains For Eisenhower In Midwest (This story on the mldwest. is the fourth of a. series on the poll- tlcal outlook as newspaper editors and political writers see it. at pre- sent.) By DOUGLAS 3. CORNELL NEW YORK, Oct. 1! -(AP)- Gains for Gen. Dwight D. Eisen- hower have been posted in all 12 states in the hotly contested mid- west by newspaper men keeping tab on the trends. In the whole crucial rum belt, editors and political correspon- dents believe only Missouri meas- ured up in mid-October as likely to go Democratic if the election were held at that time. Missouri has 13 electoral votes. All the other ll states, with 140 electoral ballots - Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, North and South Da- kota, Ohio, Wisconsin and Gov- ernor Adlai E. Stevenson's home state of Illinois-were clocked an inclined or fairly certain to go Republican. The electoral votes decide who Each state is allotted I number of electoral votes equal to the total of sena- tors and congresmen it sends to Washington. The candidate poll- ing the largest number of popular votes in any state wins all that state's electoral votes. For the whole of the U.S. there are 531 electoral votes and a candidate needs 266 to win the election. The consensus of editors taking part in a second survey for the Associated Press is that ElaE)1- hower and the Republicans have made sweeping strides, since an earlier check around Labor Day and since 1948. Four years ago President Truman pulled a sur- prise by picking off half the i2 mldwestern states. In Illinois and at other spots along the midwestern political circuit some of the Republican margins are so ragged that last- minute events or a. swing of previ- ously undecided voters could make a real difference Nov. 4. Behind the apparent trend to the Republican banner in the last few weeks editors see the clasped hands .of Eisenhower and Senator Robert A. Taft, of Ohio. Newspap- er men in nine of the 12 states cite the teaming up of the Gen- eral and the Senator as a. key fac- tor in Republican advances Editors feel Taft's mldwestern friends no longer are sitting out the campaign. Combining results of the second survey in the midwest with those in the Middle Atlantic. Western . and Southern States shows that newspaper men believe Eisen- hower was a likely winner or held an edge in 24 states with 307 elec- toral votes - 41 more than he would need for victory. The edi- tors believe Stevenson had leads ranging from a shade to a com- fortable margin ln 15 states with 150 votes-15 shy of the winning mark. Three states with 44 votes were considered a toss-up. Six New England States with 40 votes still were to be accounted for. Belle-vtfllussian Delegate To. U. N. Eased By FRANCIS W. CARPENTER UNITED NATIONS. N. Y..

It. is that of Konstantine E. Zin- chenko, the highest ranking Rus- sian on the staff of Secretary-Gem eral Trygve Lie. Zinchenko reports he is ill in Moscow but diplomats wise in the ways of Soviet. ailments speculate the illness is mostly diplomatic and he will not return to the U.N. Zinchenko is the assistant secre- tary-general for the Department of Security Council Affairs. He went home on vacation in July and has not returned. He was expected back in sept- ember but sent a cable announcing his return was delayed by illness. About 10 days ago Lie wrote" ask- ing when he was returning - and has had no answer, informed sour- ces said. There is a strong chalice that Zinchenko is being relieved of his duties in the usual Soviet fashion because he was not forceful enough to suit. the Kremlin. Zinchenko was appointed to the 822,000 post. in 1049 after another case of illness delayed the return of Arkady A. sobolev and finally caused his resignation. Zinchenko seldom appeared in the news. He preferred to stay in the background in the best tradi- tion of the soviet-trained diplomat. If the Russians decide to nomin- ate a replacement for Zl-nohenko. they will run into at problem.

The filial payment on no. 2 feed barley will be 17.415 cents a bushel and no. 3 feed. 15.991 cents. It works out to 13.2 cents a bushel for no. 3 Canada-, western six-row barley.

Ryan NEW YORK. Oct. 11 - (AP) The rise of Georgi Maxmilianovlch Malenkov has struck terror into the heart: of Russian Communist Party members, to ',ludge from the Soviet press' treatment of the re- cent party congress. Maleknov appears to be ducting I widespread purge. The 1,200 Communist big shots who were delegates to the congress which ended in Moscow Oct. 14 listened in silence while Malenkov lectured them severely, told them the party ranks had grown slop- pily and carelessly. There would be no more of it. seeming more 5talin's heir-ap- psrent than ever, Malenkov in his keynote address to the congress was interrupted many times by what the soviet press, in bold-face bracketed lines inserted in the text, referred to as "Stormy, long not-falling-silent applause." But when Malenkov got to that part of his speech dealing with party discipline, a section taking up several thousand words of stinging remarks, he was not interrupted. Even before the speech started. Malenkov's glorified position was clear. Reported Pravda: "At the appearance of G. M. Maleknov on the tribunal. the dele- gates greet him with stormy. con- tinulng applause. All rise." The delegates rise in advance of 9. speech for nobody else-except Joseph Stalin himself. Thereafter, through speech after speech, the Communist leaders re- ferred back not onlyto Stalin. but practically every one used a sim- ilar phrase in referring back to the rising crown prince, the words, ”as Comrade Maleknov has pointed out." Ma1eknov's speech was re- printed for distribution in 3,000,- 000 copies, as against only 1,000,000 for other top leaders. The party was given to tinder- stand that from now on" nobody will become a Communist Party member who has not come up through the ranks of the Kam- somols (Young Communist Lea- gue). In turn, nobody becomes a member of the Kornsomols without first having been a member of the Young Pioneers, the organization for children. i The point is that only the thor- oughly lndoctrinated will become party members in the U. S. s. R, Admissions, even from the Kam- somols, to the ranks of "candidate" members of the party will be strict- ly screened.
