that had to be made and the utter
physical inability to find time to
do the job themselves. Perhaps
this is a minor point now, but as
much Of the Stevenson reputation
rests upon the high character of
those speeches the fact that they
were largely not his own seems
timely-if the Stevenson 1856
boom is to be properly evaluated.
Mr.. Stevenson is now the titular
leader Of his party, but that is a
long way from making him its
choice four years. hence. In the
first place, his 1856 sponsors are
Mr.. Wilson Wyatt, of Kentucky,
and Mr.. Stephen Mitchell, chair
man of the National Committee.
These are two of Mr.. Stevenson's
left-wing personal friends. Mr..
Wyatt is one Of the founders Of
for Democratic Action.
Mr. Stevenson put the Messrs.
Wyatt and Mitchell in charge of
his campaign but they have no
real standing OF influence in the
Democratic party. In the second
place, the crushing nature Of the
landslide does not
make Mr.. Stevenson look like a
1856 winner.
He not only lost his own state
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1952-11-20

of Illinois by nearly 100000 votes,
but he only carried 9 of the 48
states and the popular majority
against him was 6,500,OO0. Under
such circumstances the party dis
position to renominate so heavy a
loser could hardly be pronounced
and certainly there will be no
draft" Of Mr.. Stevenson next
time. On the contrary, there is
every reason to believe there will
be real competition. Certainly
Estes kefauver, who has four more
years to serve in the Senate, has
by no means banished his dreams.
And there are others.
In addition, Mr.. Stevenson, no
longer in public office, will find it
hard to keep in the public eye.
Barring some unforeseen mis-
fortune such as a depression, the
normal expectation is that the Re
publicans will renominate General
Ike. In that event unless the Demo-
Gratis should have successfully
smeared his Administrator in the
way the Decentralization com
bination smeared Mn Hoover,
probably he will be reelected. Per
haps it does him an injustice but
many think Chairman Mitchell had
some such thing as the Raskob-

Nicholson four-year smear in view
when he suggested that what his
committee needs is am expanded
"research service" and a peima-
nent publicity director.
Concerning this situation, Mr..
James A. Farley, himself a pro-
fessional politician, hut also a
genuinely patriotic citizen, urges
both Republicans and Democrats
to give President-elect Eisenhower
"a chance to make good" 81 hope"
he said, "our men in the Senate do
not start needing him-or being
mean and petty" This is good ad-
vice. 1t will have no effect, of
course, on such senators as the
soured and twisted Wayne Morse,
of Oregon, or the garrulous Hubert
Humphrey. of Minnesota. And it
won't appeal to Mr.. Wyatt, Chair
man Mitchell or the embittered la
Dor bosses, all Of whom are
anxious to seize on Ike's inevitable
mistakes, big and little, to sustain
their view of his unftness. But it
will appeal to the many millions
who voted for him and to the other
millions who didn't but who dis
like blows below the belt. Anyhow,
Mr.. Mitchell need not worry about
providing committee smears along
the Raskob- Nicholson lines. There
are plenty of professional liberal"
columnists, commentators and left
wing periodicals eager to do that
without recompense or reward.

Stevenson For 1856?

There are several things that
make it a little difficult to get the
boom for Governor Stevenson as
the 1856 Democratic presidential
candidate off the ground At this
time it is easy to understand the
lack Of enthusiasm among Demo-
cratic politicians.
This is not in the least to dis
parage Mr.. Stevenson. He went
into the campaign practically I'M
known nationally. battled against
a great national hero and, despite
overwhelming defeat, emerged a
bigger figure with a real personal
following in the country. No one
could have done better-if as well
though it is disillusioning to
know that those polished periods
in his extremely good speeches
were not his own but came from
the "brilliant group" of left-wing
writers who gathered around him.
This, we are told by the veracious
Mr.. James Reston, of the New
York Times, who travelled with
him, and who states that the
"noblest document of the whole
campaign" delivered by Mr.. Stev-
enson in Salt Lake City land which
caused self-styled intellectuals to
rave about its rare literary quail
ty), actually was written by Mr..
Herbert Agar, formerly editor of
the Louisville Courier Journal and
now living in England
Also, Mr.. Reston asserts that
the very moving address" of Mr..
Stevenson in Richmond was entire
ly the work Of David Cohn, the
frce-lance writer from Mississippi.
OF course, General Eisenhower
had his writing group, almost as
large though nothing like as bril-
liant, as the Stevenson stable. Nor
did the General write his own
speeches on contribute much to
them even at the beginning. This
is not to the discredit of either
candidate but was made Inevitable
by the vast number Of speeches

Children Protected
 Through Coverage on Palmer School Buses

The following letter was sent to parent this week by Super intendent William T. Zahradni- eek. Since it answers an inquiry that should be of concern to par ents of all children riding school buses in the Palmer School Dis trict, it is printed in it's entirety.
 "In reply to your letter of in- quiry about school bus insurance, the following is the coverage on Palmer school busses. We apprei- ate the interest of patrons who are interested and frequently in- quire at PTA or other places about the status of insurance cov- ering the children that travel on Palmer school busses.
 For your information, and for the information of the public, the local school bus contractor, Ed C.. Christensen, carries what is call ed 10000 and 100000 with the Harbor Insurance Company. This means that each child or person riding any school bus is covered up to $10,000 per person, and the total bus is covered by $1O0,OOO. Insurance coverage includes all school trips and all special trips from and back to Palmer, such as basketball and band, or any educational trip connected with that bus.
 Incidentally, MT. Christensen carries double the amount reguir- ed by Alaska law, which is only $5,O00 and $50,00O ($5,O0O per per son and $5O,0OO per bus)."

U. of Alosku Foll Enrolment Slightly Under Last Year

COLLEGE, ALASKA-With a few more days before the final deadline 266 students were regis tered for the fall semester at the University of Alaska, it was re- ported by the Registrar here to- day, with perhaps three or four late arrivals still to enter. This is expected to produce a figure of about 270 for the first semester, and compares with 278 for the first semester of last year-a de- cline of about 39o. This is almost exactly in line with the national trend of college enrolment fore cast last week by the U. S. Office of Education to decline 75,000 stu dent this fall, namely 34 percent from the national figure of 2,225,- 900 for last year.

New Engineer Takes Over EkIutna Project Al haIf- Way Point


 struction engineer with the Bur eau of Reclamation, is due to ar rive in Palmer tomorrow to take over the job as engineer in charge of the Eklutna' Project from Byron G. Felkner.
 Felkner leaves next Wednes- day for San Francisco, where he will be in charge of construction for the J. H. Pomeroy Co.
 The new project head takes over his duties as the project is approximately at the halfway point. Felkner and his staff ar- rived in Palmer two years ago this month to begin work on the first hydro-electric project in the Territory. Congress had author ized $20 million plus for the pro- ject planned to produce 30,000 kilowatts for the Anchorage-Ma- tanuska Valley area. As the bids were received for the several con struction jobs encompassed by the project, the original cost figures had to be revised upward. It is expected that Congress will vote additional authorization up to $35 million to complete the project at the next session. There is still enough money left out of the or iginal authorization, appropria- tions from which have already been made, to continue constru- ton until July l of next year.
 This month, at the halfway mark of construction, even the casual observer is aware of in tense activity in the project area along Mile 34 of the Anchorage Palmer Highway. There is the huge laboratory at the edge of the highway, Bureau of Reclama- ton housing high on hill, and contractors dormitories, mess houses, and equipment shelters. High up on Goat Mountain a long string of lights blinks at the Val ley across Knik Arm. These lights mark the access road for the muck cars that bring the dirt and rock from the tunnel and dump it over the edge of the cliff. The hard rock drillers have gone through the worst 4,000 feet of the main tunnel; the remaining 18,000 feet should be fairly easy going, pro- ject engineers believe. After the digging, the entire tunnel has to be lined with cement.
 Before freezeup it is expected that 5000 feet of the tunnel at the lake will be lined with concrete. Excavation at this end is nearly done. By the end of this season, the pipe will be laid and the trash rack put in. The penstock tunnel is about three-fourths completed. About 85 percent of the under water work at Eklutna Lake has been done. There the dredging is still in progress It is expected that the pre-cast pipe will be laid this year according to plan.
 The first pour was made this week on the power house tail race conduit. This conduit will serve two purposes: it will take the water away from the power house house and will serve as a cul- vert for the new, relocated road.
 This month at the halfway mark of the construction project, it appears that completion will be as scheduled in the fall of 1854.
