Eisenhower Rejects Truman Invitation To Drop by White House for Briefing By The Associated Press A White House invitation for a briefing on the international situation got a "no" answer from Gen. Dwight Eisenhower today. Meanwhile, the CIO today formally threw its support to Adlai Stevenson for the presidency. Eisenhower turned thumb down on President Truman's bid for a White House briefing on the grounds he wanted to stay "free to analyze publicly the policies and acts of the administration." Stevenson, who received just such a briefing at the White House Tuesday, used his first major speaking date since he won the Democratic nomination to underscore these arguments: Points 1. "It is easy enough to have bright ideas about the art of civil government in the abstract; but you never really can understand government until you are confronted with the concrete pressures and the day to day operating experiences." Stevenson has been governor of Illinois for four years. Eisenhower, the Republicans' presidential candidate, has had no previous experience in domestic government. Fire Department Buys Versatile New Fire-Fighting Hose Nozzle Fires just don't stand a chance in Anaheim these days, and the going is getting rougher. Fire Chief Ed Stringer and a crew of firemen were out this morning on N. Patt st., just east of the Essex wire factory, testing a new wrinkle in firefighting—a Grant portable multiversal nozzle, a bit of equipment designed so that one man can handle three hoses. Six men are required to handle three ordinary hoses and nozzles. Three hoses connect to the Grant nozzle, providing 140 pounds per square inch of engine water pressure, which steps down to 79 pounds per square inch of pressure at the nozzle. The hoses connect to a small base on which the nozzle is mounted so that it can be swung both vertically and horizontally. Three nozzle fittings provide 1½, 1⅛ and 2-inch streams. The unit is also adaptable to the fire department's fog nozzle. No Whiplash Weight of the unit is only 72 pounds, which can be handled easily by one man. In spite of the three-fold volume of water, the unit doesn't move, quiver or whip, even when the operator isn't squatting on it. The 1½-inch nozzle will send a stream of water.
