Deitch is appearing en the show as a result of his previous job as “gadgeteer" on the Janus program. Deitch and Jim McNamara dreamed up various gadgets which they believed would be very practical for home and business use. They demonstrated the gadgets on Janus'
show every day. Response from viewers was large and many of the letters offered ideas which were turned into gadgets by Deitch and McNamara.

One of their best gadgets. Deitch said, was an alarm clock. The sun coming through the window would be magnified to set off a firecracker which in turn would eject a ping-pong ball, which set off a mercury vapor tube, which flipped a switch, which finally dunked cold water on
the sleeper.

‘U.S. Has Gone ‘Left’ Too Far’
Ike's Political Views Revealed
WASHINGTON. Mar. 24—<UP)— Gen .Dwight D. Eisenhower said in an interview published today that the United States has drifted too far to the “left” and warned that it “is not the kind of country that needs Socialism.”
He also said that the government “cannot be a totally passive bystander in the country's economic life” but “we should have as little of government in business as is feasible in our modern, complex life.” Further, he called for a “renewed recognition and appreciation” of morality.
Eisenhower's views were given in an interview obtained by David Lawrence, editor of U. S. News Sc World Report, on Jan. 16, 1950, before the general took a leave of absence as President of Columbia univessity. Eisenhower gave permission for the, one-time “off-the record" talk to be published today.
The interview represented one of the few comprehensive outlines
of Eisenhower's political thinking. It was published at a time when many critics of the drive to secure the Republican presidential nomination for Eisenhower are charging they do not know where he stands on various issues.
While Eisenhower did not flatly say so, he indicated he still believes as he did two years ago. ln a letter to Lawrence dated Mar. 14, Eisenhower said he had reviewed the material in the interview and thanked the magazine publisher for the opportunity to do so.
‘ Asked whether he thought the nation had “deviated from our historical course,” Eisenhower replied:
“In some things, particularly in our emphasis on legislation as a panacea, I think we have drifted to far to the so-called ‘left’ so that many Americans have a genuine fear about the future.
In particular, we must not allow ourselves to travel the road
that “Great Britain apparently has been traveling. America is not the kind of country that needs So-ciaism.
“We can achieve whatever reforms we need without such a radical change in our own economic setup. There are people in this country, of course, who want to go clear over to the*‘left.’ I just don’t agree that America's future lies in that direction.”
Eisenhower agreed it “may well be that the presidency is too big a job for one man.” But he said that, “as- in any post of responsibility, all depends upon the kind of men he (the president) gathers around him.”
The general said that while he “never sought political office,” he would “respond to a call of duty.” No citizen, he said, “has a right to refuse public service if the citizens want him to serve" and “each citizen must decide for himself how useful he can be.”
