I discovered to my intense cha

Adlai Stevenson I think that is
the last public gift I'll ever re-

Gov. Stevenson proved on his
first day of whistle-stopping that
he has political acumen as we'll
as a sense of humor. At Merced,
Calf, he paid a glowing tribute
to Republican Gov. Earl Warren,
who is almost as popular with
Democrats as with his own party
in the State.
II had a hard time figuring out
how they keep him in the Repub-
lican Party" said Gov. Stevenson,
"and have often thought that if
I could spend a few days with
Gov. Warren somewhere there
would be one less Democrat or
one less Republican-and I am
a mighty good Democrat"
In his first day on the back of
a train Gov. Stevenson collected
the usual assortment of gifts that
are always showered on presiden-

Before the train reached the
desert north Of Los Angeles it
carried baskets Of fruit, grapes

even a small vial Of gold.

All Great River Basins
Favored by Sparkman
BY the Assoeiofed Press

SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. IL
Senator John Sparkman, Demo-
cratic vice presidential candidate,
says he is in favor of Government
development of all great river val
leys.
Senator Sparkman arrived here
last night and planned to make
three speeches in Utah today.
Two speeches will be in Salt Lake
City and one in Ogden.
In answer to a reporters ques-
tion on whether he was in favor of
development of the Hells Canyon
area in Idaho by the Government,
he answered:
II am in favor of Government
development of all great river val
leys. It is virtually impossible for
private enterprise to undertake
such a large-scale development"

The Alabama Senator came here
from Topeka, Kans., where yes
terday he charged the Republicans
tried to fool American farmers
with claims of a Democratic hoax
in 1948 and that Gen. Eisenhower
had swallowed the story.
In a speech at the Kansas State
Free Fair Grounds, Senator Spark
man said the Republicans claim
that farmers fooled into voting
Democratic" through an alleged
conspiracy in which the Demo-
Gratis were accused of rigging the
grain market to make prices fall
and preventing farmers from OBJ
tanning commodity loans.

said "the downward trend in farm
prices had begun more than year
before the November elections of
1948 and continued for more than
a year afterward."
Senator Sparkman said that the
80th Congress crippled the price
support program by amending the
Commodity Credit Corp. charter
and forbidding the governments

hundreds of persons crowding
along the tracks as his train
pulled in.
What his speeches lacked in
Truman fire and birthstone, they
made in witty light touches that
kept his listeners chuckling.
In contrast to the Truman
sledge-hammer blows, Gov. Ste
venson welded rhetorical
rapier. But the crowds seemed to
get his point. One of his best
lines of the day was:
IF the Republicans will stop
telling lies about us, we will stop
telling the truth about them"

Late yesterday he went through
Bakersfield, which underwent
severe damage from an earth
quake recently. He promptly won
the crowd Of 1000 that greeted
him by expressing sympathy for
them in their task of reconstruc-
tion. Then he added:
II am astonished, to tell you the
truth, that the Republicans
haven't blamed that earthquake
on us yet" .-
He got another laugh by observ-

Among the signs that greeted

son had two of his sons with him
yesterday-Borden, 20, and John

Gov. Stevenson made the most
of the fact he was born in Califor-
MIA, even though his family moved
East again when he was five
years old.
At San Jose he found a cousin,
Bob Robinson, waiting to greet
him. In the crowd also was Wal
ter w. Houston, the oldest Demo-
crat in town, who had voted for
the Governors grandfather for
Vice President with President
Cleveland.
IF I can just hold on to my
cousins and the people who voted
for my grandfather, I'm in," the
Governor joked.

party's presidential nominee an
appropriate introduction, called
him a man full of brains and
vinegar"

chimed in the Governor, as he
stepped out on the platform.
At the town Of Tracy he said he
had been told that when Presi-

in 1948 they didn't wake him up,

NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-Several
newspaper surveys outdid the pro-
fessional pollsters on the presi-
Dental election. However, no.
body's ear caught the rumble OF
the advancing Eisenhower land
slide.
The Gallup, Roper and Crossley
polls all seemed to give Gen.
I Eisenhower an edge just before
election. But none fatty picked
him.
The only professional poll that
. did was Kenneth Fink's Princeton
Research Service, but his margin
was far short.
An Associated Press survey Of
editors across the Nation showed
Gen Eisenhower the probable
winner in 20 States and with an
edge in eight for total Of 327
electoral votes. The general ac-
tually carried all % States.
Samuel Lubell, who surveyed
prediction sentiment for the
Scripps-How newspapers, said
in advance that Gen. Eisenhower
"should win" Mr.. Lubell terms
himself a reporter and not a
pollster, and he said he rang door,
bells in strategic communities. He
found definite switch from those
who voted for President Truman
In 1948 to Gen. Eisenhower in
1852.
Another newsman, David Law
renee, Washington correspondent,
surveyed editors Of daily news
papers in every State. In his daily
column November 8, he gave 357
electoral votes to Gen. Eisenhower
and lac to Gov. Stevenson.
The New York Times published
q State-by-State survey the same
day and found % States with 256
electoral votes favoring or leaning
toward the general. Gov. Steven
son was ahead or favored in 16
States with 165 votes. Nine States
with 10 votes were listed as
doubtful.
The final story Of the Associated
Press survey, appearing in Sunday
newspapers October 26, started
! this way:
'NeWsmen over the Nation be-
lieve 1852 would go down as Re-
publican year with Gen. Eisen-
hover the probable winner over
Gov. Stevenson, If the presidential
]. election had been held in mid

Newspaper editors and political
correspondents who made two po-
litical surveys for the Associated
Press clocked Eisenhower as lead
ing the presidential sweepstakes
around Labor Day. They esti-
mate he has picked up strength
since then in 80 Of 48 States"
The A. p. tabulation Of esti-
mates showed the newsmen pick
ing Gen. Eisenhower as a prob
/ able winner In 20 States with 238

hover q I per cent edge on Gov
Stevenson, but listed 13 per cent
|of the electorate as undecided.
Mr.. Gallup admitted afterwards
he underestimated the Republican
victory. but said his poll stayed
within its normal margin of er-
ror."
Mr.. Gallup was a prime target
Of President Truman four years
ago when his poll mistakenly
picked Gov. Dewey to win. Mr.
Gallup said yesterday:
We'll let President Truman cal
the crow this year. It's good to
be on the right side. We profited
from our experience in 1948."
Archibald M. Crossley, director
of the Crossley poll. said q few
hours before the election that II
Can stiD 60 either way"
However, his figures gave Gen
Eisenhower about a 5 per cent
edge over Gov. Stevenson with
9.9 per cent undecided.
He said afterward the big Re-
publican effort to get out the vote
apparently turned the trick.
Elmer Roper. head of the Roper
Poll, did not try to break down
the prediction findings into per-
centages. He said. instead, "there
ought to be enough people still un-
decided to throw this election
either way"
He conceded after the election
he was "open to the charge Of be-
ing overly cautious this year."
II made no prediction he add
ed, "and I don't ever intend to
make a prediction until those un-
decided people tell US what they
