"Creeping Socialism Struck U.S. In Last 20 Years Says Eisenhower"

CUSTER STATE PARK, S. D., (P)

President Eisenhower says "creeping socialism" struck at the United States during the last 20 years of Democratic administration, and that the nation runs a grave risk "if that group takes over again."

The President swatted the political opposition in an informal talk last night to about 500 South Dakota Republican leaders.

He addressed the leaders a few hours after arriving here from nearby Mt. Rushmore where he told another GOP rally his administration has made a "good beginning" toward a regime serving "the interests and needs of all our citizens."

Although Eisenhower said he was tired when he arrived here after two speeches Thursday, he fished for trout for two hours before dinner. He caught five, kept two of the larger ones and snagged his finger slightly on a fishhook.
