Nixon Continued From Page One time is running he eight years before we did." "'We'll Catch Up" "But we'll catch up," he added. Nixon conceded that Russia leads in some areas of rocket de-! velopment "because they started while contending the United States is ahead "in the overall picture in science and education." Nixon would not commit himself on entering Indiana's presidential preference primary next year. Nixon said the fact that the Russian people have "a great desire for peace has its impact on (Soviet Premier Nikita) Khrushchev." "He already apparently has renounced the former Communist line of hostility to other nations," Nixon said. 'Mr.

Khrushchev is far more responsive to the Russian peoples than was Stalin, who fenced himself in the Kremlin and did not mingle with them." Referring to Khrushchev's ment that the Russians overtake this country in economic progress, Nixon said: "We welcome this competition because competition has made the United States." Nixon paid high tribute to Halleck and other GOP minority coilgressmen fo for blocking "bad legislation" and enacting much of Eisenhower's program. "Never nave SO few done SO much for the country as those! Republicans in the House," Nixon said. Haleck introduced Nixon -as a man who has given the position of vice president "new dimensions for which countrymen can be truly grateful." "Dick Nixon has been a great apostle of liberty in his trips abroad," said Halleck, "conducting himself always with dignity, with firmness and with the wisdom that comes from experience." Second District GOP chairman Alvin C. Cast received from Eisenhower a letter to read at the rally calling Halleck "a tough and ready fighter for the principles in which he believes and fair and fearless in their support." "As a congressional Eisenhower wrote, "'he is forceful' and astute, with parliamentary skills respected by not only all his party associates, but by the opposition as well. "And as a Republican team player, he is loyal and outspoken, insisting on achieving party unity, above all a patriot rejecting narrow partisanship on issues vital to the security of our country and the peace of the world."
