BeaI| Blasts Mahoney
As A Man Without
Moral Courage
By Alex R. Preston

Representative Beall, Republi-
can, looSed the most scathing as
Sault of his senatorial campaign in
Maryland last night against his
Democratic opponent, George P.
Mahoney.
His public statements Mr..
Beall said, "show him to be man
without vision. without intellectual
honesty. without moral courage
and to think that all problems can
be quickly solved by promises. The
job demands much more"
MI, Beall has been fighting mad
ever since he met his opponent on
a television program Tuesday
night. Mr.. Mahoney used his time
at the very end of the broadcast
to fire some embarrassing ques-
tions at the Republican and then
refused the stations offer to ex-
tend the time to give Mr.. Beall
an opportunity to answer.
G. o. P. Invitation Ignored.
Since then, the Western Mary
land Republican has cried for a
return bout with Mr.. Mahoney
before the television cameras or
anywhere else. The Democrat has
ignored him.
Mr. Beall, in a statement from
his Baltimore headquarters, said
he was more than pleased with the
result of his face-to-face en-
counter with his opponent and
with subsequent television mara
thon in which he answered ques-
tions phoned in from the listening
audience.
1T is evident that while my
opponent wishes to stay at arms
length from Harry S. Truman
and his presidential candidate"
Mr.. Beall said. "he, nevertheless,
has admitted that in the Senate he
would help continue the present
administrations reactionary and
failing policies.
Mr.. Mahoney had been chal-
lenged to state his position with
respect to the administration after
he failed to show up when Presi-
dent Truman made a Whistle-Stop
at Cumberland Thursday-the
Presidents only Maryland appear
ance. Mr.. Mahoney said he had
made other commitments before
the Presidents visit was an
nounced.
LAS to his allegations about my
attitude toward the present ad-
miniStration," Mr.. Mahoney had
told an earlier television audience,
"let me say I have been consistent
throughout my campaign in stress
ing the economic and social gains
made during the past 20 years
under Democratic leadership"
Self Confessed Trumanite.'
But Mr.. Beall had a come back:
MY opponent, after weeks of
pleading his independence from
his own political party and espous-
ing the platform am running on,
was finally confronted with the
evidence this week and recanted-
he. is now a self-confessed Tru-
mantle.
"Al confessions are difficult to
make and my opponent was a
chagrined and sorry man when he
finally had to admit that he favors
the continuation of the Truman
policies right down the line, in
Guiding the Acheson foreign policy.
THE mass of contradictory and
hypocritical statements which he
had recklessly made were too much
for him when he was forced to
either renounce his support of
Truman or announce his accept
ance of the platform of Eisenhower
and myself"
The Mahoney headquarters said
last night that the Democratic
candidate had no statement there.
Mr.. Mahoney was scheduled to
speak later in the evening at a
Democratic rally at which Senator
Kefauver, Democrat. of Tennessee,
was to appear in behalf of Gov.
Stevenson.

Wouldn't Foze 'Buffy' Ives
Stevenson's S Sister
Not Nervous Yet
About Election
By the Associated Press

BLOOMINGTON, ILL.,, Nov. s.
A slim, aristocratic woman who
may be the next First Lady of the
land toasted her stockinged feet
before her hearth fire today and
vowed she insn't nervous over the
election.
She is Mrs. Elizabeth Stevenson
Ives, known as "Buffy" to her
brother. Adlai Stevenson, and to
her family and friends.
Mrs. Ives has served as Gov
Stevenson's official hostess at the
Governors mansion in Springfield
since Ellen Borden Stevenson di-
vored him in Reno in 1949.

She would move with Gov,
Stevenson to the White House to
continue as his hostess should the
Democratic nominee win Tues
days election.
I'm not tense or excited" Mrs.
Ives said in an interview in the
rambling, 55-year-old Stevenson
family home in Bloomington. II
suppose We'll all get jittery when
the returns start coming in elec-
ton night. But right now I don't
feel at all nervous" Z

Elizabeth Ives be?
She's tails feet, 7 or 8 inches;
she's SIS years old, az years Gov.

she had a 36-room house to su-
pervise with staff of half a dozen
servants. In North Africa, her
servants were native Zulus. In
Bloomington. she keeps house in
the three-story, 12-room stucco
home inherited from her mother
with a cook, a chauffeur butler
and housekeeper to staff the
place.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ives spend their
winters at their farm in Southern
Pines, N. c., and it's there that
Mrs. Ives is able to indulge one
of her great enthusiasms-gar-
dening and working out Of doors.
This she does in blue jeans. put

occasion demands it.
