Ike Addresses
Dutch Cabinet
THE HAGUE, Netherlands, (JP)
—Gen. Eisenhower told the Dutch
cabinet Tuesday he came to Eur
ope out of a sense of duty and
that is the only way he would
accept public office in the U.S.
The retiring NATO commander
made the statement when he ap
peared before the cabinet in the
last in his series of farewell ap
pearances in European NATO
capitals. At the end o*f the month
he returns to the United States.
Eisenhower made the remark
about his candidacy in response
to an address by Premier Willem
Dreds, who said, “You are going
home to face an election to find
out what fate has in store for
you. You have completed success
fully your job of laying the
groundwork (of NATO) and now
you aspire to the highest office
the United States can bestow.”
Eisenhower said he would like
to make a correction in the Pre
mier’s statement.
“I aspire ta no public office in
the United States, and will only
accept one out of a sense of duty,”
he declared. “That sense of duty
must be communicated to me by
the great political party to which
I have given such allegiance as a
soldier can.”
