contrast to the walkout two

Then, white boys and girls
milled about across the street

to remove the Negroes by force

WASHINGTON (UPI)—
A Broadcasting industry
official said that the major
networks were giving free
time to Sherman Adams
Monday night because of
an “implication” by the
white house that the presi-
dential assistant would an-
nounce his resignation.
This industry source said he
thought the networks certainly
would take a different attitude
toward giving Adams air time if
they thought he was going to use
it to defend himself against po-
litical critics in an effort to re-
main in his post.
Speech to Be Short
The networks have offered

ever he died within minutes.
Republican pressures built up,
nonetheless, for the removal of
the presidential chief aide. Ad-
ams had angered many of his
own party as a White House “no”
man and had sought resignations
of other administration officials
for alleged improper activities.
Talk Lasts 75 Minutes
Adams flew here from Wash-
ington with Brig. Gen. Andrew
J. Goodpaster, White House staff
secretary, who brought the presi-
dent a report on the Warsaw
talks between the U. S. and Red
Chinese ambassadors.
Adams arrived at the presi-
dent's vacation office at 8 a.m.
and went immediately into a 75-
minute conference with the presi-
dent. After that talk he spent 25
minutes in Hagerty's office,
where reporters could see him
pacing the floor and looking out
a window.
He returned for another brief
conference with the president.
Adams left by helicopter at
11:10 a.m. on the first leg of his
return trip to Washington, ac-
companied by both Hagerty and
Goodpaster.
The president walked with him
100 yards down a concrete walk
to the waiting helicopter. Both
men were smiling. Eisenhower
stood and waved goodbye as the
helicopter took off.
Newsmen shouted to Adams:
“Have you resigned?”
He gave no notice he had
heard.

Democrats Complain
The Democrats complained
over that broadcast, but the net-
works suggested they would be
willing to do the same for Adlai
E. Stevenson.
The network theory behind
such a free time is that this con-
stitutes a legitimate and import-
ant news story which should be
carried to the people, even if the
request originated with the White
House.
One industry official said that
for the present he regarded Hag-
erty’s request as "official" and
thus expected the president's
chief assistant to announce his
resignation and give his reasons
for so doing.

day for a dramatic, unexpected,
series of meetings with President
Eisenhower and other members

presidential press secretary
James C. Hagerty said radio and
television networks were being
asked to provide time Monday
night for a statement of about 15
minutes by Adams. He said the
request was made “with the
knowledge and approval of the
president."
Hint is Refused
Hagerty said Adams will an-
nounce at that time whether he
will resign as a result of the con-
troversy surrounding his "im-
prudent” acceptance of gifts
। from Boston industrialist Ber-
nard Goldfine.
Hagerty refused to hint at
what Adams’ decision would be,
but reports in both Washington
and Newport Indicated Adams
would bow out of his top White
House job because of political
pressure resulting from his
[friendship with the gift-giving
Goldfine.
The press secretary said
"others have expressed them-
selves through media of the na-
tional circulation" on the Adams-

Adams now wishes to have a
similar opportunity.”
