WASHINGTON, Dec. J7 W—Sen
Knowland (R - Calif) challenged
presidential aspirants in both par-
ties today to pledge an American
veto for any move to admit Com-
munist China to the United Na-
tions.
In what was regarded as a pre-
liminary blast in his expected
campaign lor the Republican presi-
dential nomination, Knowland crit-
icized the Eisenhower administra-
quiescence” to a package deal by
which it nations were taken into
the U. N. earlier in the week.
Knowland, the Senate minority
leader, said the deal — admitting
12 non-Communist and four Com-
munist countries — “raises the
ominous issue of the admission of
Communist China into that organi-
zation by a similar deal before or
alter the American presidential
elections of 1956 ”
it clear he will be a candidate for
I his party's 1956 nomination if Pres-
ident Eisenhower doesn't run. He
is exported to eater some pri-
maries if Eisenhower doesn't an-
nounce his intentions in January.
President Eisenhower has said
his administration will work
against admission of Red China to
to the U. N. but he has not fore-
closed some possible change ot po-
sition if future world developments
should warrant it.

Congress in the enactment of vital-

federal aid to municipal airports."
Bible also praised Lee and said
it was the duty of the Senate group
to learn just why he was removed.
Schoeppel told Monroney he will
cooperate in the inquiry “if the
facts and circumstances are as you
indicate."
Payne said Lee has "been doing
an outstanding job” but added that
Congress "should not interfere un-
