Forsyth said some of the money

WORLD
-, DAY
ey JAMES NARROW

WASHINGTON R-This is be-
coming one of the most fascina-
ting of all presidential campaigns
for number of reasons, although
the most obvious hasn't been men
toned by the candidates.
It's this: The campaign is I'M
folding like a good play, moving
with increasing intensity toward
climax which even the experts, so
wrong in 1948, don't want to try to
forecast.
And Sen. Nixon's predicament
sensational as it is. seems like
only one act in the drama, no
matter whether he stays or exits.
For in the past day. in addi-
ton to the Nixon case, the cam
paign took a turn which indicates
a deepening bitterness.
The needles which Stevenson be-
gan jabbing into Eisenhower al
most from the beginning were hui
morously gentle when he first tried
them. But they gave way to thrusts
that were acid-tipped.
Eisenhower showed restraint in
answering but yesterday-at the
height of the Republicans concern
about the effect of the Nixon de-
velopment on the election - he
turned on Stevenson with sudden
harshneSS.
Sticking to his promise not to
use names in the campaign, Eisen-
bower became personal with Ste
venson in a statement saying, eve
are tired of aristocratic explana-
tons in Harvard accents"
He accused the Democratic can
didate of "smugness' and "smug
evasions" and said. This is nc
! time for men of refined and elab-
crate indecsion." This was further
than Eisenhower had ever gone
before in answering the governor.
If Eisenhower pursues this line
Stevenson will have a chance to
demonstrate whether he can keeI
his temper or reply in kind, which
is something he said he won't do
although Eisenhower may feel he's
done it already.
/ And, as if to bring down the
curtain on a balanced act yester,
day both men attacked each other
with an identical accusation:
Eisenhower said Stevenson hao
misrepreSented the generals views
on foreign affairs while Stevenson
said the general had twisted the
governors views on the solution Of
labor union disputes,
