The President had a couple OF
brushes with his audience, and at
one time he rebuked noisy young

boos greeted his statement that
he was campaigning because he
wanted his policy for peace con-
tinued, the President said:

although Stevenson claimed he was
more worried than Ike about the
high cost of medical care. Eisen-
hover criticized Mr.. Truman's
handling of taxation, economic
controls and the steel strike. Stew
enson said last night he recognized
Federal rights to the oil-rich tide
lands" but hoped to find compro-
mise. Eisenhower has leaned toward
State ownership of the undersea
land.
When they turned to foreign
policy they seemed to be only
little farther apart. They agreed
that the Korean war was neces-
sary under the circumstances, but
Eisenhower said Truman admin
istration blunders were to blame
for those circumstances. He did
not list the blunders. Both candi-
dates agreed it was not feasible to
end the war by attacking China.
To the delight of the Democrats,
Ike came out for and against Nc
Carthyism at the same time. He
said he didn't like the way Senator
Mccarthy operates but would back
him if he won the primary. Demo-
Gratis scorned the Eisenhower "cru-
sade" that embraces McCarthyiSm.

Political Week

sW7HILE THE hard-working boys

the State-by-State dope sheets, the
presidential candidates and their
top lieutenants spent the week
pickering over almost everything

not drawn for debate over the

Gov. Stevenson said Gen. Eisen-

tooer." The general said the Gov
ernor still looked like captive"
Both Endorsed the middle way"
The middle way apparently in
cluded most Of the major programs
of the Truman administration
except "the mess in Washington.
Both candidates promised to clean
up the mess and both went on to
indorse these programs: Old-age
security, unemployment insurance,
equal opportunities regardless of
race, color or creed, improved edu-
cation, adequate housing, protec-
ton Of the rights of workers,
disaster insurance for farmers and
high price support for farm crops.
Both wanted these things without
further extension OF the power of
the Federal Government over the
lives Of the people.
Both were against the Brannan
farm plan and what Eisenhower
called "nationalized medicine"

@EN. EISENHOWER, readying
" himself for his first big test
as political campaigner, faces an
evangelizing job far greater than
any undertaken by the late Billy
Sunday-the conversion of several
million voters to Republicanism in
two short months.
Only the rashest prophet would
say the task is impossible. But in
a year of uncertainties, one thing
is sure: If Gen. Eisenhower achieves
his goal, 1t will be after an uphill
battle.
AS the general hits the sawdust
trail next month, he will have COM
petition. His opponent, Gov.
Stevenson of Illinois, will be out
saving a few souls himself. Unlike
Eisenhower, who must bring new
communicates into the fold, Ste
venson will have merely to prevent
the flock from straying. The bald
est political truism Of all-that the
Democratic Party wins elections
because there are more Democrats
than Republicans-has a 20-year
history of validity behind 1t.

increase 40 to so per cent. a simply
fantastic" figure, according to the
experts. Not even a 20 per cent
increase is believed possible from
the is million acres to be brought
under cultivation by the Volga-Don
Canal project. This is the only
significant new acreage to be added.
3. Power capacity figures seem to
have been multiplied 10 times real
lty. Inc REDS have been ballyhoo-
ing their new power plants at
length. All of them together have
a capacity of 6 million kilowatt
hours. The new five-year plan sets
the target at IS million. No other
power plants of any significant size
could be built before 1855.
