Dorothy Thompson:
Candidates Obscured by Party
Hence Attention of Independent Voter Usually Centers
On What Either Man Believes About Government
oter Usually Centers
,out Government

Eisenhower rather than Steven
son. or vice versa. but also why
Eisenhower rather than Taft.
and why Stevenson rather than
Truman.
Initially. in both candidates.
one sensed change.
Stevenson's style is different
from his predecessors, and
style is a clue to content. Here
appeared differentiated mind.
One expected him one day to
blurt out, II think some
measures of my predecessors
were admirable. I deplore
others. On the whole, like my
distinguished opponent, I favor
our foreign policy, but :"
That would have been re-
freshing. and, I suspect. true.
It is fair to ask of either candi-
date, What. if you had been in
Office, would you have done
differently?" Gov. Stevenson
must have had many mental
reservations. for his is a critical
mind.
But the conventionalities de-
mand that he confirm every &C
ton of the Roosevelt and Tru-
man administrations. They
never erred. Every failure was
due either to Republican opposi-
ton in Congress, or to bad ad-
vice from Republicans!
Every congressional party
candidate must also, by conven-
ton, be supported by his party's
presidential candidate. Thus,
although Senator Mccarthy Is,
In the Democratic argument. q
menace (being Republican,,
Martin Dies of Texas is accept
able (being q Democrat). Al
though the foreign policy sup
ported by Senator Lodge is
closer to Stevenson's than the
ideas Of his rival in Massachu-
sets, Mr.. Kennedy, Mr.. Ken
nedy. being a Democrat, must be
supported.
The same with Eisenhower.
His personality and ideas are
progressively obscured by party
and campaign conventionalities.
He must attack what he once
supported; accept the charges
Of some Republicans against
Gen. Marshall: embrace Senator
Mccarthy whom he earlier SHE'D
from.
Thus, the parties look for a
man, and then Strangle the man
as a thinking. or even candid.
individual person. He becomes o
composite personality who can
only get his own face back once
the campaign is over.

these things - they just don't
like to see the President Of the
United States going up and
down the country while there
are important tasks to be done
in Washington. And if there
are no such tasks. then the
presidential Office isn't the i'm
portant cog in the Nations
machinery of Government that
it has been cracked up to be.
Mr.. Truman's trip is pro-
ducing also another type of re-
action. In the political world,
ingratitude is an objectionable
sin. Mr.. Truman has always
prided himself on his fidelity to
his friends. Had it not been for
Gen. Eisenhower's word spoken
at the opportune moment in
1948, Mr.. Truman would not
have gotten the Democratic
nomination that year. The gen.
eral stepped out of the way,
and now Mr.. Truman is telling
the public that the promise Of
support he once gave the gen.
eral for any post he might want
was q, mistake and that the
general has betrayed" him. It's
just the other way around -
Mr.. Truman has welshed on an
obligation he once incurred.
Or maybe he is really discharg-
ing it. after all. for there are
many persons who think the
Truman trip will prove to have
been the turning point of the
campaign and will help elect
Eisenhower.
BY emphasizing that a vote
for Stevenson is a vote to up
hold the Truman record. the
President certainly has clarified
the issue for independents" as
we'll as regulars who are fed up
with the scandals of the ad-
ministration. Scarcely a day
goes by that the news dis
patches do not tell of wrong
doing inside the administration.
Maybe if Mr.. Truman had spent
more time watching his appoin-
tees and had insisted on the
designations Of the bad ones
when first reports reached him.
he wouldn't have to go out now
to defend his administration,
even with taxpayers money.
