but with frank confession they
were guessing.
The correspondents inciden-
tally did very well on a News
week poll of the 1850 Senate
races; a few Of them hit it right
on the nose. A third of the Sen
ate, of course, is very much
easier to figure out than a ma
tional race involving all 48
States.
In discussions Of the problem
Of presidential predictions, there
is rather general agreement on
the major difficulties.
The Roosevelt revolution de-
veloped a wide variety of pro-
grams whose appeal is directly
from Washington to large blocs
of voters. Those programs still
keep many people employed and
money in farm pockets. It may
be, as Republican orators con-
tend, a dangerous prosperity but
the fact that Gen. Eisenhower
thought it necessary to outbid
Gov. Stevenson for the farm
vote speaks for itself.
A sage Midwest Republican
after taking due note Of the inn
mense st. Paul crowd which
cheered Gen. Eisenhower re-
verted to AL Smiths "they don't
shoot Santa Claus" when asked
for an opinion on the November
outcome. The corruption issue
seemed to him the only hope for
his party. He also believed ac-
tive campaigning by Senator
Taft would scare away needed
Eisenhower votes.

John c. Henry:

The true measure by which
the defenses Of Western Europe
are being rebuilt is difficult to
establish in the complex OF
statements and developments
coming out Of the continent.
A few days ago, Marshal JUN,
commander Of the Atlantic pact
ground forces in Central Europe,
declared after a series of maneu-
vers that sufficient strength had
been assembled to remove the
danger Of an overwhelming sur
prise attack by Russian arms,
with the further implication
that allied troops could hold q
defense line along the Rhine
River. The latter thought, Of
course, is one that the West
Germans fear most - that
whether they resist or not they
might be earmarked for early
abandonment while the first
major defensive effort of the
West is staged along the river
line.
Tending to confirm this mill
tary appreciation are the results
of two maneuvers this week
Operation Equinox and Opera
ton Holdfast. The former, en-
gagged in by a joint French
American force with the Rhine
defense as its basic objective.
revealed that the Black Forest
area in West Germany is not a
substantial barrier in itself to an
armored attack. Theoretical ag-
gressor forces pushed through it
steadily through "a hours of
rehearsal to send the defenders
scurrying back to the stronger
ground Of the river banks. In
Holdfast, where a British Dutch
Belgian-Canadian force is at.
tempting to divert an enemy
offensive from a northern line to
sectors more strongly held,
doubts arose about the effective
ness, particularly in terms Of
time. of skeleton reserve di-
visions.
Coincidentally. Gen. Ridgway,
Supreme Commander Of the Al
lied Powes in Europe, declared:
"We cannot be satisfied with
anything less than the mini
mum in building up the NATO
forces against aggression. We.
have not reached it yet"

Experts Won't Take Any Chances
Correspondents Refuse Predict Outcome Of the Eecton
No Method Found Yet to Discover Will of the People

In 1852 also even the most
active reporters never see q
large part of the Eisenhower
Stevenson audiences. Yet the
TV listeners, at ease in their
homes. may be much more af-
fected by the candidates argu-
ments than the crowds which
face them. The immediate audi
ences in fact are likely to be the
partisans of the speaker, brought
to hall or train by intensive Or
ganization work.
Another difficulty for the ex-
perts is the growing bloc Of
Independent voters. In past
years Democrats have won be-
cause they got a very large
share of this group. It is. how
ever, a group sensitive to the
corruption issue.
It also seems to many expert
enced reporters that people are
more reluctant than heretofore
to say how they will vote. This
surely reflects the present cli-
mate Of McCarthyism but it
cuts both ways. Many respect
able voters seem to support
Senator Mccarthy who won't
admit it publicly.
Sleeper" issues this year are
Eisenhower's five stars and Gov.
Stevenson's divorce. Women, it
is often said, will not vote for a
military man. The Stevenson
divorce Is not publicly discussed;
1t Is worth mentioning that the
convention which nominated
him contained a higher percent
age Of Roman Catholics than
the population generally.

And, unkindest cut Of all was
another at New Haven, whose
center of learning-Yale-in-
cludes among it's directorate
Senator Taft, to wit:
'The former president of
Columbia University is now an
assistant professor on the staff
Of DR.. Taft"
And he tickled a wildly ex-
uberant crowd at New Britain,
which had stood through a
downpour Of rain before his
arrival, and was pelted by an
other shower as he spoke, when
he quipped about q Republican
victory:
Gen. Eisenhower will be in
the White House, Senator Taft
IN Blair HouSe--and Tom Dewey
in the dog-houSe."
Gov. Stevenson keyed his
speeches in Connecticut and
Massachusetts, to his audiences.
Here. in these States, he was
among people who had been
reused up against ''Taftisnn" by
the Eisenhower managers in
their preconvention campaigns
and had become receptive to
Gen. Eisenhower because he
had defeated Senator Taft at
Chicago. Now these folks have
found that the Eisenhower vic
tory has come unstuck - it
wasn't lasting at all. Senator
Taft Is back again, riding high.
From the response Of the
crowds and the comments heard
by reporters who wandered
among them, 1t was plain they
understand very clearly what
has happened.
Many Of these voters are
listed as Independents" that
vague class which has much to
do with election.
They don't mind Jokes. either.
They like them. They don't
care much for Senator Taft or
Joe Mccarthy or Bill Jenner.
Gov. Stevenson seemed to get
his point over.

Strength at Arms IS Not Enough
Free Association Of NonAegressve Nations Won't Provide

involves more than a military
effort and the progress that is
being made today requires the
weighing Of more than military
factors. A hard core of political
resolution and a mobilization Of
economic and industrial facili-
ties are essential to back up any
strength at arms-in fact, with
out them the strength at arms
would dissolve in a. dangerously
short time.
The measuring Of this politi-
cal resolution is a more nebulous
thing than the counting Of
divisions, guns and airplanes.
Plagued on and on by other
problems. the political authori-
ties Of many of our West Euro
pean partners have displayed
less Of a sense of urgency and
alarm about the threat of Rus
sian attack than has been the
case in Washington. Recent
visitors to Europe report a new
atmosphere Of calm this summer.
Tightening this picture, how
ever, is the current determine
ton being displayed by the new
Assembly of the Coal and Steel
Community to speed the draft
ing Of a plan for a common
political authority of the six
associated nations. Unprece-
dented in Europe's modern po-
litical history, the creation of
such a federated body has long
road to travel yet, but the
temper of the conferees provides
great encouragement. If estab-
lished around the coal and steel
