Secretary of State Dulles warned that tighter U S tariff barriers would push free nations toward communism and urged Congress to kill Rep Simpson's tariff boosting bill. He argued the measure would trigger international repercussions and harm U S interests, highlighting a rift with some Republicans over trade policy amid the 1954 election cycle.

Supreme Court Refuses Review in L B Case Merger Dispute
The Supreme Court declined to review a 1948 merger involving Federal Home Loan districts Los Angeles, Portland, and a new San Francisco district. The decision leaves intact two 1952 circuit rulings clearing the way for a federal hearing in Long Beach, with a hearing date likely set by the Federal Home Loan Board. Thomas A Gregory of Long Beach Federal said a reconsideration request will be filed.

Nixon to Stump U S Before 1954 Election
Vice President Richard Nixon plans a nationwide stump tour in 1954 to aid Republican chances in Congress. He said the VP should campaign where GOP nominees can gain seats, potentially rivaling a presidential role if Eisenhower does not campaign. Lyndon Johnson countered by suggesting a Democratic Congress is needed to pass Eisenhower’s foreign and domestic programs.
