Biggest Factor In U.S. Presidential Election Campaign
Washington, Oct. 17.
HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER
The biggest factor in the 1952 Presidential election campaign would be the capture of one or both Houses of Congress by a Republican majority in the Congressional elections to be held on November 7.

important, by the judicial convicllon of the former high State Department official, Mr Alger H, for per Jury in denying espionage.
I would make it still more difficult for the haraned Pre- aldent Trumbu to get done the things that he wants to have done to incet both foreign and
domestic crises. It would mean ever more vacal and publicised criticisin of his not having done the things which the voters feel he ought to have done.
Senator Arthur Vandenberg, the veteran Republican foreign affairs war horse, who, as Re- publicar Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Com- mittee in 1946-48, helped Pre- ident Truman put through the Marshall Plan and other foreign nid programmes, retires from
litical life this year.
At present, there is na such powerful or liberally minder! Republican foreign affairs leader in sight who night temper the opposition wind to storn Democratic administra- tion.

New York, Oct. 17. Minister of State, Mr Kenneth Younger, said here last night that the avoidance of another world war was probably a prime objective of Soviet policy. But Communist policy ran the risk, of blundering into war unintentionally, he told gathering of New York newspaper editors.
From the Soviet view point the Communist inva- sion of South Korea had been a "ghastly miscalcula- tion," he said.
