Ten Questions Facing Stevenson
Governor So Skilled in Use of Phrases That One
Twice to Discover Political Course He Is Steering

Governor knew he had to make
reference at least once to the
Roosevelt and Truman admins
trations, so he did it with Sc
lectivity and dizziness as fol-
lows:
a.. We will never apologize
for our leadership of the great
events of this critical century
all the way from Woodrow Will
son to Harry Truman"
That takes in a long range in
world affairs. but at the same
time it rather limits his approval
to "the great events of this criti-
cal century" and seems to ignore
the domestic issues about which
there has been so much vehe-
ment controversy in the last 20
years.
AS the campaign develops, the
Democratic nominee will have to
amplify his position. He will be
asked questions from one end Of
the country to the other-such
as these:
l.. Is there to be no sharp
alteration" in the policy of Sc
lecting for Government commits
sions and boards only Left
Wingers" whose basic philoSo-
ply looks toward confiscation of
private property and state So
cialism rather than private en-
terpriSe?
2. Will there be no "sharp
alteration" in the system which
appointed crooked politicians to
public Office as, for instance,
certain collectors of internal
revenue now removed from their
jobs or convicted in the courts?
8. Will appointments to such
non-partisan positions as Direc-
tor Of Civilian Defense have to
be cleared" with the Demo-
cratic National Committee as
heretofore?
4. Will there be no sharp
alteration" in the policy of
giving assurance to the CLIO of
the Presidents intention not to
use a certain law which applies
to serious strikes, which fact
was revealed in a public speech
last December by an official Of
that labor organization?

Military Holds Trump Cards
Shifts in Iran and Egypt Army Control Have Profound Effect
Outside Their Borders Cold War Between East and West
John c. Henry:

The Importance which con-
troll of the military holds in a
nations political life has been
demonstrated many times in
history. It is basic and not sur
prising that the Importance is
greater in countries where con-
stitutional government is weak
est.
Loss of control of the military
has had a profound effect upon
the histories of two Middle East
countries, Iran and Egypt, in
the past few weeks. Eventually,
the shifts that have taken place
in these two countries will have
its effect outside their borders
perhaps to a point of being an
important new element in the
long cold war now being fought
between East and West.
The shift in control of the
military in Iran was a tragic
and unnecessary development
resulting from the indecision of
a young Shah who is provost
ern and intelligent but possessed
of a Hamlet-like personality.
The one trump he had held
through a year of Mossadegh's
ruinous administration of the
country was his control of the
army. The Minister of War had
been one cabinet selection which
he had not allowed to get en-
tirely out of his sphere of in
fluence; the Army chief of staff.
General Yazdanpanah, and his
top subordinates had been the
Shah's own choices.
While the Mossadegh policies.
particularly the closing of the oil
industry and loss of its revenue.
pulled the country closer and
closer toward bankruptcy during
the past IA months, the Army
by the Shah's direction-con-
tinued to receive its pay. It was
still on his side.
Mossadegh knew all this, of
course. and it was largely for
this reason that he demanded
for himself last month the port
folio of Minister of War. At that
point, the Shah was resolute

alteration" in the policy of
selling public property without
due process of law and then
asking Congress for instructions,
and, when Congress makes a
request. ignoring it?
6. Will there be no sharp
alteration" in the policy of
packing" the Federal judiciary
with political hacks and par
tisans?
Z. Will there be no sharp
alteration" in the policy of in
creasing non-defense expendi-
lures and engaging in extrava-
CANT adventures and projects
when the country is being taxed
to the limit?
8. Will there be no sharp
alteration" in the policy of
ordering American boys out of
the country to fight in a major
war involving more than 500, 900
soldiers, sailors and airmen
without ever asking for ratifi-
cation of such action by the
Congress as provided In the
Constitution?
9. Will there be no sharp
alteration" in the policy of at
lacking the exposers of COM
munism, while at the same time
soft-pedaling the presence Of
Communist sympathizers in the
State Department who are al
lowed to resign rather than let
them become subject to similar
excavations in the court of pub
lie opinion?
10. Is this to be a campaign
of bubbles and eQuivocation. or
is the Governor going to keep
the promise he made in his &C
ceptance speech when he said.
'let's talk sense to the American
people. Let's tell them the
truth. :"
These are but a few Of the
questions that critics of the
Truman administration will be
asking Gov. Stevenson to
answer. now that he has intro
duced the idea of a "refreShen-
ing" of Roosevelt-Truman poll
cies. What kind Of "refreshen-
ing? Does it mean more ice"
in the highball? Or just more
of the same?

Jockeyinq for the Prize Places
Eastern Supporters of Eisenhower Made Unhappy by the Ease
With Which the Old Guard Infitroted Denver Quarters

family quarrels Of the Repub-
licans his early hackers would
not be so readily alarmed per-
haps by anything he might do
in an organization way. But
he does not know much about
the conflict of personalities
which reflects the policy division
in the party and he will be for
a very long time dependent on
the people close to him.
The fact is. too. that the Old
Guard outnumbers the original
Eisenhower elements both in the
Congress and in the national
committee. It named Senator
Dirksen chairman of the Senate
Campaign Committee which
automatically gives him an i'm
portant campaign role. His de-
tense of Senators Jenner and
Mccarthy may crate upon many
G. o. P. ears but he can argue
he is doing his job.
There can be little doubt that
the pro-Taft national commit
tee group. reduced now in num-
bers and prestige but still
powerful, are doing their utmost
to keep their places so they can
share in victory and inherit in
defeat. This means a friction
that will never really vanish
during the coming months.
OF course Republicans can
console themselves with the
thought that the Democrats are
jockeying with equal fervor for
the prize places close to their
candidate.

South. Revival Of the Dixiecrat
rebellion seems doomed. There
will again be freedom of choice
in the South as was not pos
sible everywhere in 1948.
There was no pious talk, as
was heard at Chicago, about
States rights which, this year,
could have become a cloak for
a handful of bosses to condone
various DISTINGUISHING devices
and defend them under the
sanctity of claws Of our sover-
eign States"
Nor was there any talk of
States rights heard at the other
meeting in Atlanta this week,
today and tomorrow.
There were gathered repre-
sentatives of the Farmers Home
Administration from 10 South
ern and border States to ar
range for disaster loans from
the Federal Government to pro-
tect livestock in heavily stricken
drought areas and to help farm
ers to keep in production.
While the politicians still cry
about States rights, they know
and the people know that
drought nor floods nor poor liv-
ing conditions have regard for
imaginary State lines, but that
our community of neighbors en-
braced in the Federal Govern
ment must help from our COM
mon treasury to which we all
contribute.
So you heard no South
ern political leaders protesting
against aid to their people
in the name of States
rights, and you won't. You
will hear plenty of vague
oratory about States rights in
the campaign. This will be par
ticularly in regard to regulation
Of powerful economic interests
by the Federal Government.
Those still prefer the special
privileges that they can enjoy
under the right of States to be
lenient and to let them exploit

David Lowrence:

Gov. Stevenson is such a skill
full user of phrases that one has
to read them twice to make sure
whether the Democratic nomi-
nee is making a serious blunder
or merely steering cautiously
among the political shoals.
Thus. on first glance, it may
look as if the Governor has made
a grave mistake in saying that
what the Nation wants is q
refreshing-and not any sharp
alteration-of the policies which
have meant strength and prog
reSs for two decades"
The Governors refusal to
make any sharp alteration"
could mean that he is not rec
ognizing the Nationwide senti-
ment in favor of change" and
is planning to continue the New
Deal and Fair Deal policies of
the last 20 years.
But. on the other hand, this
could be a mere euphemism-
the use of phrases to say pleas
antly what would be unpleasant
for Mr.. Truman and his asso-
ciateS to hear. The Governors
sentence above, moreover, could
be construed to mean that he
intends no sharp alteration"
only in those policies which
have meant strength and prog
reSS for two decades"
This could refer to only GER
tain policies yet to be identified
and it might mean sharp altera-
ton or even abandonment of
those policies which the nomi-
nee may, during the course of
the campaign, feel compelled
virtually to repudiate. Incl
dentally, no policy ever launched
by the New Deal or the Fair
Deal has been characterized by
its sponsors as anything else but
a measure Of strength and
progress"
The eyes of millions of in
dependent voters are on Gov.
Stevenson to see how much Tru-
maniSm he will reject and how
much he will accept. His tactics
thus far have been plainly to
avoid a complete commitment.

cratic National Convention the

Two meetings were held in
Atlanta, Ga, this week-in the
heart of the deep South. While
not at all related, they yet fit
into pattern that reveals much
of what has happened and
what is happening in the South.
The first lasted only IL min
uteS. That was long enough,
however, for the complete COL
lapse of an earlier political plot.
in the Dixiecrat manner, to
freeze out the regular Demo-
cratic presidential ticket. Such
could have been done by law
damned through the Georgia
Legislature by Gov. Herman
Talmadge. Under its terms the
names of presidential candi-
dates could have been kept of
the ballots which would carry
only a single slate of preSi-
dental electors. The votes Of
these electors could have been
cast virtually at the dictation
of Gov. Talmadge for whom
ever he pleased. The scheme
was recognized as a variation
of several prepared in other
Southern States to appropriate
the regular Democratic ballot
for Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower.
Instead, the State Democratic
Executive Committee. meeting
in the State capitol. instructed
the slate Of delegates which it
named, headed by Gov. Tai
madge, to cast their votes. if
elected, for the Stevenson
Sparkman Democratic ticket.
Gen. Eisenhower's name can go
on the Republican ballot in the
regular manner.
Georgia became the first
Southern State to follow the
pledge Of the Chicago conven-
ton, which Gov. Talmadge
signed. binding the Signers to
do everything possible to get the
name of the conventions nomi-
nees on the ballot. The Talmadge
organization Joined the regular
Democratic fold and thus started
q trend which is expected to
continue through most of the
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1952-08-06

enough to deny the request.
When Mossadegh resigned and
Qavam was called to head a
new cabinet the turn in Trans
fortunes was only one step away.
1t was a step that was never
taken because the Shah's in
decision prevented him from
supporting his own prime min
ister's request that the army be
called to restore order in riot
torn Teheran. It was an act Of
irresolution that cost the Shah
his first minister, brought Mos
sadegh back to greater power
than ever, already has cost Iran
its semblance of constitutional
government. and may yet cost
the Shah his throne if not his
life. Just for comic relief, if
there is any comedy in the sit
uation, General Yazdanpanah
has sent word to the palace he
expects to be i'll for two months.
MosSadegh. dealing in words
but without money, already has
announced severe cuts in the
Army budget-to a point where
the country may soon have
neither defenses against exter-
nal aggression (from Soviet
Russia on the north) nor even
power to quell internal attack
from the Communist Tudeh
Party.
In Egypt. it was loss of the
Army that cost Farouk his
throne. The difference there,
and it appears a fortunate one
at this point, was that it was a
young reform group within the
Army that was standing by
to take over the reins of au-
thority when the monarchy
failed.
AS in the case of Reza Pahlevi
Of Iran, Farouk knew that the
army was his real trump. He
played it on January 26 when
it responded to his orders to
restore order in riot fired Cairo.
He should have known. if he
didn't. that the army was then
in effect placing him on proba-

ton. It had pulled his chest
nuts out of that fire to give him
time to clean up the evils which
had plagued Egyptian govern
ment and embarrassed its mill
tary too long. It allowed him
six months and a variety of new
cabinetS-but when he attempt
ed to compound mis- other short
comings by weakening the army
command itself-by naming his
brother-in-law to a key COM
mand post-the zero hour was
close.
In Egypt's case. the army
junta which has taken over has
pledged itself to maintain the
constitutional system and al
ready has relinouished civil con-
troll to Prime Minister Ally Ma
her. Prospects of order and
strength must be rated con-
siderably higher there than in
Iran.

Stephens, a skillful pre-conven-
ton operative for Eisenhower,
and James c. Hagerty, who art
fully managed the Eisenhower
convention press relations, were
attached to the general. IN
deniable assets to any national
candidate. they constituted at
the time a fair percentage Of
the inner circle.
The controversial Governor Of
New York went quickly back to
Albany. Senator Lodge returned
to a hard campaign for re-
election in Massachusetts,. Sen
ator Duff took a Far West vaca-
ton.
Developments since then are
described as vastly annoying to
the Fasteners who fear to have
their candidate made captive by
the elements who opposed his
nomination. They particularly
dislike the aggressive role as
sumed by Senator Dirksen Of
Illinois, author of the famous
convention taunt to Gov. Dewey,
and they are groaning over his
attack on the "lavendar lads
of the State Department.
Gen. Eisenhower is not the
first candidate for Office who has
found it expedient to placate
his enemies with the favors he
owes to his friends. He would
naturally desire as a matter Of
practical politics as we'll as

an area Of party harmony as
possible.

Doris FIeeson:

Gen. Eisenhower is expected
to return to New York City
by the last week in August.
For the eastern internationalist
supporters who launched his
candidacy, he cannot arrive a
day too soon.
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey is
mentioned prominently on the
list of those made unhappy by
what seems to them the ease
with which the Eisenhower
headquarters in Denver is be-
ing inflltrated by the Old Guard
of the national committee and
Congress. They grant 1t was
necessary to come to terms with
the Taft forces, grant too that
Colorado is conveniently close
to the Taft heartland, the Mid
west.
They are still Of the opinion
that the general is OVERRIDING
the olive branch. Their problem.
especially Gov. Dewey's, is how
to fight back so long as they
have to make a conspicuous
journey to Denver to do it. Hence
some inconspicuous emissaries
now on the Denver-New York
road.

human and natural resources
contrary to the public interest.
States rights still have potency
there, but the purpose is plain.
and no one has to be deceived
thereby.
OF all sections. the South has
benefited most from protective
measures taken by the Federal
Government in fields beyond
the scope of individual States.
Such measures were found nee
essary 20 years ago when the
great depression opened our
eyes to weak spots and the lack
of balance in our economy and
showed the need of adjustments
in the common interest. They
were boldly undertaken, by vote
OF Congress. by Franklin D.
Roosevelt.
So the two meetings in At
lanta do have a pattern. That
was perhaps best put, If COL
loquially, at the Democratic
State Executive Committee
meeting by B. D. (Buck) MUIR
ply. spokesman for Gov. Tall
madge. Forecasting that Geor-
gia would remain Democratic
this year. he said:
Folks down here remember
how they had to hunt rabbits
and make corn liquor to live
back in 1882. They want no
more Of that"
A partisan outburst perhaps.
and excusable on that ground.
But it does tell something about
the South and its people-then
and now.
