NEW YORK. Sept. 19.-News-
paper editors and political writers
over the country consider Gen
Eisenhower the probable winner
over Gov. Stevenson-if the presi-
Dental election were run on today.
But many newsmen who took
part in q Nationwide survey un-
dertaken by the Associated Press
believe large numbers Of voters
haven't made up their minds,
They say it is too soon to tell
who may hit the wire first In
November.
Where editors say they have
spotted present trends toward the
g. O. p, the reasons they mention
most frequently are currents OF
time-for-a-change sentiment and
Gen. Eisenhower's personal popu-
larity. In State after State
newsmen believe the general will
make a better showing In his first
bid for an elective Office than
Thomas E. Dewey did four years
ago.
Fairly Sure OF Is. States.
The collective opinion Of editors
and correspondents, brought to-

would reach $3.50 more than
the 266 required to clinch the
election.
Newsmen believe that Gov,
Stevenson, at this point. could be
reasonably certain Of II States
with 12l electoral votes and that
he might pick up three, doubtful
ones with 40 votes.
That adds up to ITO votes 96
short of thes266 mark.
Half q dozen States with 66
votes are regarded by newsmen
las on the fence at this time. Even
liz Gov. Stevenson bagged all OF
those. he wouldn't have enough

Task for Stevenson.
So, as the editors see it, Gov
| Stevenson will have to smash
away in the few weeks remaining
before the election at States that
now look safe for Gov. Eisenhower
and those that appear to be wa
vering toward the general.
But the Illinois Governor knows
what he is up against, for the
survey estimates dovetail with
Gov. Stevenson's statements soon
after he was nominated that he
faces an uphill fight. that a desire
for change in Washington is
perhaps the biggest hurdle he will
have to clear.
