Frank Lohn, chief Of the Internal
Revenue Bureaus intelligence divi-

The World Today
BY JAMES MARION

WASHINGTON R-B there was
any similarity, at times, between
brawl and the presidential cam.
paign just Ell ding, semc of the rea-
son was the reason behind most
brawls: one word led to another.
The words, genteel at the start,
finally reached the level of you're
another" There were too many
words. The campaign lasted too
long.
In fact, the candidates may have
lost some votes by taking over the
time some favorite TV programs
would have had.
The campaign might have stayed
elevated if Gen. Dwight D. EiSen-
hover and Gov. Adlai Stevenson
had been allowed to argue it out
by themselves with everyone else
listening in but no one horning in.
But others we're in the act from
the beginning.
There were exaggerations on
both sides, some ridiculous, some
inexcusable, although exaggeration
in a presidential campaign is
neither new nor astonishing.
But there was more than Just
exaggeration in this campaign:
There was smear; there were
misstatements; there were at
tempts at character destruction;
and the most elementary human
emotions were played upon like a
piano. For instance, fear Of war.
The nation, which has survived
other presidential campaigns that
were intense and disorderly, should
be able to come out of this one
intact.
True, it had fine moments and
some real eloquence. But the way
the candidates were treated by
each-and others ~ it sometimes
might have seemed they were
running for sheriff.
The day after election much of
the campaign oratory can be for
gotten as pure political CUFF. But
the campaign showed the growth
of a malignancy which cannot be
dismissed or ignored by any con-
cerned with the national well
being.
In recent years the country has
been inflicted with a deepening
cancer: suspicion of one another.
And the campaign nurturec it.
Already thoughtful people are
asking a question: how long can
we continue along this path of
spreading suspicion of one another
without destroying ourselves?
It was q memorable campaign.
But was It one to be proud Of?
