Eisenhower's reaction to the campaign has been two-fold. Speaking on Thursday, he reiterated his opinion that the basic issue of the campaign is still the record of his Administration.

Most have been detained for more than seven years in camps, many of them in Western Europe. There is a two-fold danger here: at best these people will have a political apathy toward democratic countries, and at worst they react with violent hostility toward the free world. In effect we are nurturing a modern type of savage deprived of the rights of existing laws...
