truth and the taxpayers money!
Therein lies an overriding
moral issue Of this campaign.
OF course, the host Of govern
mental propaganda mills in the
Nations Capital, supported by
your taxes and mine, exist for
the sole purpose of selling us the
virtues of the administration.
But the press agent has his
limitations; no longer is he able
to generate so dense a fog of
printers ink as to conceal cor
ruption!
Before giving you a partial
bill of particulars as to our just
complaints, let me say. en-
phatically, that there are two
points on which I find opposi-
ton leaders completely and
wholly right. Their nominee for
President has lately been quoted
as admitting that there is
mess in Washington! The head
of the administration, himself,
has announced that their presi-
Dental nominee must run on
one issue-the record Of the ad-
ministration. On both these
points L am in, hearty agree
ment with the opposition.
This Washington mess is not
a emergency mess or a one
bureau mess or a one-depart-
ment mess-it is a top-to-bot-
tom mess.
It's ingredients are many-all
Of them indigestible! Stirred
into this sorry brew are all the
facts you have learned and
many none Of us will ever hear
about - Of Washington waste
and extravaganza and ineffi-
cheney; of Incompetence in high
places and in low places; of cor
ruption such as makes us hang
our heads in shame; of bung-
ling in our affairs at home: of
fumbling in the life and death
matter of war and peace.
Who brewed this mess?
You know the answer to that
as well as I do. It was brewed
by scheming politicians whose
idea of public service is service
to their own purses or their own
power. This Washington mess
did not come to pass by any
process of spontaneous combus-
ton; neither did it,, like Topsy.
just grow. This mess is the
inevitable and sure-fire result
of an administration by too
many men who are too small
for their jobs, too big for their
breeches and too long in power.
Now, what does this Washing
ton mess mean to you? Some
body has to pay the bunglers
and provide the cash to finance
their bungling. Who is it? The
answer to that is you: every one
of you; every worker, every
farmer, every housewife, every
lawyer and doctor and school,
eacher, every Office worker and
every clerk, every young Amer
lean.

Insofar as legal means exist

Administration Accused
Of Creating Emergencies

They manufacture emergen-
cies as the rugs under which
they sweep stupidity, blunders
and corruption.
I learned to know something
of the South and its greatness
at first hand 35 years ago when
I was a Junior officer at Fort
Sam Houston and at Fort Ben
ming. I first met my wife in a
Southern city; and that's reason
enough why the South forever
will be high in my affection. On
the other hand. the machine
bosses of the present Admins
tration apparently did not dis
cover the South until they met
in convention during July of
this year. Immediately they did
so, they tried to hogtie the
South with a loyalty oath-an
oath not to your State or to the
Nation, but to a political nomi-
nee those bosses had not yet
even named.
All this is in line with their
way of doing things and their
misconceptions of the South and
its people. Think of all the
things the administration has
sought to foist upon you. If
you believe their propaganda,
you should Immediately surren-
der to the Federal bureaucrats.
They want you to feel that only
by accepting their doctrine OF
Washingtonian wisdom can you
avoid becoming the victims Of
economic circumstances, unable
to stand on your own feet,
doomed to misery and poverty.
An old Albanian once said:
"The big trouble with the Fed

was they were a mite careless

Letter Carriers Urqe
Congress 70 Increase
Residential Deliveries
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 2.-The Ma
tional Association of Letter Car
riers wants Congress to order res
toration of more than one-a-day
residential mail deliveries.
The AFL union, in a resolution
adopted unanimously yesterday at
the opening session Of its 38th BIZ
ennial convention, also raped
Postmaster General Jesse M. DON
aldson for curtailing deliveries.
William C. Doherty, president
of the association for 10 years,
called for replacement of MIR. Dom
aldson in a speech just before the
union adopted the resolution.
Regardless of whether the
Democrats or Republicans win,
there is bound to be a change for
the better for the postal service. "
Mr.. Doherty said. I'VE are con-
vinced that the answer to the
problem of what is wrong is that
we need a new Postmaster Cen
eral."
The resolution on mail deliver
fes asked Congress to act because
"the career Postmaster General
has done nothing to end the VI
eious results of his infamous cur
tailment order" of April II, 1850.
Inhumane working conditions
impairing the health of letter car
riers have been caused by the Or
der. the resolution said.
Gen. Eisenhower, Republican
nominee, was among the speakers
who addressed the delegates rep
resenting about 100000 union
members.
A union official later said that
Gen. Eisenhower's appearance did
not mean the letter carriers in
dorsed him. The official said the
letter carriers, as Federal en-
ployes, must refrain under law
from direct political activity.

Americans adapt and adjust
themselves to every revolu-
tionary change In weapons and
warfare. But all the changes
In techniques and tactics have
not changed by one iota the
greatness of our young men and
our young women. Nothing has
changed their readiness to sac
rif1ce for the things that they
hold dear, or their willingness to
meet any challenge to their
ideals and principles.
But all these service people
young and old-are only a
cross-section of America. They
are one with men and women
in all walks Of life in our coun-
try-the Americans we meet
every day in the cities, villages
and on the farms of our land.
They are men and women with
whom I have served in many
regions and many climates. I
am certain that out of their ex-
perience they would enthusiastic
ca1ly indorse these conclusions
that I have reached out of my
own experience:
First: There is no other peo-
pie so endowed in talents and
skillS and spirit-above all, in
spirit and heart-as the people
of America.
Second: There is no land so
endowed by God with a variety
Of richness and a natural wealth
as our own America.
Third: There is no other sys-
tenn of government. devised by
man for his welfare and Sc
curity. so responsive to the peo-
pies will-once the people have
reached a decision as the
American system.
Given those three elements
a Nation that is great in heart;
a land that is rich in it's re-
sources: a Government that is
a ready instrument of popular
will-why should we Americans
any longer tolerate the doubt
full, the corrupt in high places.
Let us retire them, at the first
possible moment, to the rear
most rank where they will no
longer affront our sense Of de-
cency while they betray our
trust and besmirch our name
among the nations. Then we
can, effective and united. resume
our forward march to the hori-
zon-a horizon bright with
promise for ourselves and our
children.
You, the people-and only you
can give the command for
that forward march.

the election. But I promise you
this: BY the time it comes, the
wasters, the bunglers and the

about them and they will be

You've already given them a

ing it in Washington. too. And
they don't like like it. They like

For my part, I like Rebel yells.
I heard them all the way from
North Africa to Central Ger
many. All along that road to
victory, they meant an end to
Nazi tyranny. In this cam
paign, they mean an end to the
mess in WASHINGTON.

Of all this, as I am: If you are
as tired as am Of picking up
your newspaper every morning
and reading about q fresh Gov
ernment scandal, then let's get
together and restore decency and
honesty and integrity to the Ma
tion's Capital.
I pledge you that-whatever
my future personal status-I
shall not rest until the peddlers
of privilege and the destroyers Of
decency are banished from the
Nations house.
We have the skill and the
talent and the will to make our
Government once again some
thing thrifty and sound and
dynamic Government to ex-
cite the pride of Americans.
We can build a Government
able to face the scrutiny of the
entire world, secure and un-
afraid in its material and Spir-
itual strength.
I am an old soldier, but al
ways I have been a plain Amer
ican citizen. During these
many years, I have worked on
Kansas farms, in factories, in
universities, in Government and

Washington mess is being taken

It is being taken out of your

It is being taken out of your

for-from groceries to new

uum cleaners to tractors, from
a college education to the cost
of getting married and having
= a home Of your own.
This Washington mess is
being taken out of your hide by
reaching into your savings ac-
count and getting at your insur-
ance policy and your pension.
It is cutting down the value Of
every dollar you have put away

It is being taken out of your

OF prestige and respect abroad;
waste and confusion at home.
You pay for the incompetence.
stupidity and corruption on the
part of those who have been
caught and those who have not
been caught. The newspapers
tell us that we are getting two
airfieldS in North Africa for the
price Of five. They report count
less other items Of waste.
Even my distinguished oppo-
nent admits that his party has
produced a mess in Washing
ton. Here we have amazing
proof of how far, from bad to
worse. things have gone, and.
indeed. they have. They are
too far gone-much too far
gone-to be cured by the one

either. What the Washington

will do the job is a wholesale
clean-out of the political bosses

ATLANTA, Ga, Sept. a.
FOLLOWING is the tert OF Gen.
Dwight d. Eisenhower's address
prepared for deliUery today at
Hurt Park here:
I am glad to be back in At
lanta. I have been here many
times and number by the hun
dredS my friends in the South.
However, it seems that some
of the opposition spokesmen
look upon this meeting as a
revolution.
For them, this is a revolu-
ton. Through generations they
have been counting the votes OF
the South ahead of time, along
with the cemetery tomb stones
and the vacant lots that they
carry in the election rolls in
some of the cities they run up
North.
For me and for you, how
ever, it is the most natural
thing in the world that an
American, nominated for high
political Office, should want to
talk over the problems of Amer
lea with his fellow citizens-no
matter where they may live. And
I am not writing off a single
precinct anywhere in the coun-
try as the captive of the Ad-
ministration machine.
OF course, the bosses are very
much afraid of you who have
gathered here. The one thing
they fear is the sort Of spon-
taneous turnout of free Amer
leans that they see here In At
lanta today.
They don't like people with
