Cooley Says Byrnes

Representative Cooley. Democrat.

Gov. Byrnes Of South Carolina a
bitter old man" for supporting
Gen. Eisenhower.
After conferring with Gov.
Stevenson here this morning, Mr..
Cooley told reporters he does not
think Gov. Byrnes reflects the
sentiment Of South Carolinians
generally.
Asked II he thought any of the
Southern States would 60 Repub-
lican, Mr.. Cooley said he saw no
reason why they should, but was
not in a position to make fiat pre-
dictions.
Mr.. Cooley. chairman of the
House Agriculture Committee,
criticized Gen. Eisenhower's farm
speech in Minnesota last month,
in which he Endorsed the present
80 per cent Of parity law, but
said he saw no reason why farmers
should not get 100 per cent Of
parity.
II think he meant he wants the
farmer to get 100 per cent parity
IN the market place, but he didn't
tell the farmer the location Of the
market place where he can get
it,. Mr.. Cooley said.

this day, October /, the opening

There had been other papers

true ancestor Of the newspapers
Of America because it became the
country's first continuously pub

An ancient press was set up to-

its owner, Edward Stephens of
Boston, said dates back to some
time before 1850. Four feet, 5

the big cleaning presses which
today carry-hour by hour to

timistic report on the national
political scene. from the Demo-
cratic viewpoint, as he pushed
westward on his John Alden"
drive in behalf Of the Stevenson

Secretary of the Interior Oscar

met President Truman yesterday
midway on the Chief Executives

that all was well with the party

man puts it.
Mr.. Chapman. who is on leave
from his cabinet job to help Gov.
Stevenson. says the Governor is
building his strength fully in the
country.
Mr.. Chapman said he talked
over the situation with President
Truman and that the retiring head
Of the Democratic party was we'll

Mr.. Chapman joined with Presi-

At the moment, the Republicans

to the threat Of the Truman
counterattack and will certainly
call up all the firepower they have
to meet it.
Besides the major business ut
hand, the various other political
brews are simmering quietly.
Eisenhower lieutenants are
being cagey about reports that the
general may harvest political hay
out Of the testimony Of his old
colleague, Gen. Walter Bedell
Smith, that Communists have in
filtrated every security agency of
the Government, including Gen.
Smiths own Central Intelligence
Agency. There is no confirmation
here Of reports that Gen. Smith
has appealed to both candidates
to lay of the subject in the in
terests Of national security.
Nor is there any further word
about when Gen. Eisenhower may
come up with his promised state
ment Of income. The indications
are. however, that it will not be
soon-possibly not before the end
Of the present trip.
In his appearance yesterday in
Columbia. S. c., the general
chalked up one more impressive
bit of evidence that the Solid
South. this election year, is in q
state Of violent convulsion.
50,000 Persons Turn Ont.
The police chief guessed that
about $4,000 persons 1ammed the
square in front of the old State
Capitol building. The people had
come into town from all over the
State, and they were in full
tongued rebellion against the sug-
gestion that the South, this year
could still be counted safely in
the Democratic column. The
turnout did not measure up to
the advance predictions Of 10000,
but it did demonstrate the real

From the political standpoint,
the important speech Of the after
noon was not Gen. Eisenhower's.
It was, rather, the introduction"
by Gov. James F. ByrneS of South
Carolina. the most powerful polit-
ical figure in the State and o
spark plug of the Southern revolt.
Gov. Byrnes, who had made his
position clear in the past. made it
clearer yesterday. At the airport,
he told reporters he was making
no predictions and was not plan

sounded less cautious from the
platform.
There was one thing certain at
this point in the campaign, he
said, South Carolina is no longer
in the bag for any party"
The former Secretary Of State
reminded his audience that -four

He added:
