Government Exists
For Certain Purposes
We believed in these I

we believed IN CQeSe CnlngS:
Government-any government
lis not an end in itself. It
exists to serve certain human
purposes. These purposes should
be enlarged only with caution.
Indeed. the effort should be
always to leave as wide a range
of activity as possible in private
hands and to keep public inter-
vention as far down the scale
and as close as can be to the
people governed.
What ought to be done by
government for the public well
fare should be done. There
should be no wistful dragging
of the feet or turning backward
to a dead, irrelevant past.
Government should be COM
petent. Its personnel must not
be under the heavy hand Of
purely political selection or in,
fluence. It must not be afraid
of raising and spending money
for worthy purposes, but it must
deteSt and fear waste and dis
honesty as ever-present threats
to the whole moral basis of
government by the consent of
the governed. People don't con-
sent voluntarily to being cheated
or misuSed.
Above all, those who hold in
their hands the power of govern
ment must themselves be in
dependent-and this kind of in
dependence means the wisdom,
the experience and the courage
to identify the special interests
and pressureS at work, to see
the public interest steadily, to
resist its subordination no mat
ter what the political hazards.
Now these simple principles
are not peculiar to Illinois, nor
foreign to the majority of those
who participate in political
activities. They are the common
ground of those who are de-
voting their time and effort and
money to the volunteers for
Stevenson" under whose auspices
I speak here tonight.

torney Darlington Thompson in
Royals death.
Halls story Of Royals death
was that the prisoner became
violent June "a, the day after he
was locked up here, and that sev-
eral men had to subdue him.
DR.. q. v. Thompson said Royal
was suffering from a form of in
sanity and he was committed to
Central State on June % by a
lunacy commission.
He died the next night.
External Blow Blamed.
After an autopsy had been or
dered, State Chief Medical Exam
iner G. T. Mann on July 26 re-
ported that Royals death had
been caused by a brain hemorrhage
brought on by an external blow.

AIwoys Time for Change
TO Something Better

At the risk of seeming to lack
compassion and humanity, I
don't believe we can save the
Republican Party from itself.
I do not believe that liberal Re-
publicans trapped behind the
G. O. p. line can be liberated by
surrendering the country and
the Congress to the old guard.
It's too high a price to save the
enlightened Republicans from
their more primitive brethren.
They'll just have to take care of
themselves while we take care OF
the country.
But, of course. there is an
easier, safer path Of escape for
them. There is always light
in our Democratic window for
the politically homeless or the
repentant. There is a warm
welcome and plenty of shelter
for Republicans as well as in
dependents. And, as in the
Foreign Legion, no questions
asked.
Now, my friends. I shall not
argue that it is necessarily fatal
to change horses in mid-stream.
But I doubt If it is wise to Jump
on a struggling two-headed
elephant trying to swim in both
directions at the same time in
very rough waters.
Man does not live by words
alone, despite the fact that
sometimes he has to eat them.
Alas, in this world, he some
times-or perhaps too often
he lives by catch words.
Slogans are normally designed
to get action without reflection.
This one, Time for a change"
fits these specifications ad-
mirably. This may not be too
serious when all that is at stake
is whether to buy one cake OF
soap or another. But ] don't
think it furnishes a sound basis
for deciding a national election.
II we believe in human prog
ress, If we believe with the
pioneers that there is a peace
full, better life to be found be-
yond the horizon, then We all
profoundly believe that 1t is
always time for a change

1.-THE important thing" as JUS
tice Holmes once said. sis not
where we are but where We are
going" Or
This year the Democratic
Party nominated me for the
presidency, a nomination I
didn't seek. The very fact they
selected me is the best evi-
dence that the Democrats
wanted a change. And the
Democrat who wanted it most
was President Truman. Now,
the bitterest enemies Of Presi-
dent Truman could never &C
cuse him Of being one to run
away from a fight. But he
knows that change-new men.
new blood, new ideals. new
methods-is healthy. He has
not sought to interfere with
the considerable changes in the
Democratic Party organization
I have already made. And I
could add that no one has made
or even proposed any deals with
me for any Office. or benefit.
or favor whatsoever.
I think the Republican lead
ers know this, yet I hear them
attack corruption as II there
wasn't a single honest Federal
employe.
On this subject I want to
say that corruption in public
Office is treason, and it is trea-
son to Democrats as well as
Republicans. Any crooks I can
find in the Government will be
exposed and punished as ruth
lessly as I've done it in Illinois
to Republicans and Democrats
alike. And another thing, I

Change Important Word
In the World Todoy

It's all a little perplexing.
The Democrats are denounced
for not wanting changes and
then for a subversive desire to
change everything. I'm Begin
ming to wonder If the Republic
can campaign rests in the claim
that Democrats are social revo-
lutionaries who want to keep
things exactly as they are.
But, more seriously, change"
is a good subject. About the
most important word in the
world today is change"
In fact. I would be perfectly
willing to have the outcome Of
this election decided on these
questions: Which party best
understands the meaning of
change in the modern world?
Which party has ignored 1t?
Which has anticipated the need
for change and done something
about it? Which party has re-
sisted about every important
change for the past Is years?
And looking ahead now, which
party is most likely to cope ef-
fectively with the vast changes
already in the making?
You'll forgive me if I am
a little cynical when I hear
shouting loudest for change the
politicians who have con-
sistently opposed vital change at
every turn as far back as most
of us can remember. - asf
Timing with respect to change
= is as important as change itself.
It's when the problem is a live
one that change becomes i'm
portant. In fact. if my party
had not met the challenge of
change at the right time, there
would be no program for Amer
lea for the Republican leaders
to indorSe.
I have a hunch that the
American people would like to
see them get out in front on
something, for a change. And
have a further hunch that
there are a lot of us who would
be more impressed by specific
ideas about the making Of q
better world than by these
hoarse denuncations and de-
mands for a blank check made
out to change.
I believe that there are a lot
Of changes still to be made. I
am for continuing the process
Of gradual social and economic
betterment which began at the
depths Of despair in 1882. The
changes wrought in these 20
years have steadily raised the
standards of life for our people,
given new hope to the under
privileged. and proven to the
slave world the capacity of free
men to provide security for
themselves within the frame
work of freedom.
I am glad that the general has
apparently embraced these
changes. But ! do not detect
any roars of approval from the
old guard-the men who never
want anything done for the
first time. Col. Mccormick has
even deserted, "gone over the
hill" as the CTS say. And Sen

DENVER, Sept. 6.-FollotDing
Is the teEt of Gou. Adl1i Steven-
sons speech at a dinner OF the
Volunteers for SteDenson here
last night:
When this visit to Denver
was arranged. I had thought to
find here platoons and bat
talions Of political bigwigs-all
hostile. And I was afraid I
could not qualify as a big-wig
although it has sometimes
been suggested that I could use
one. But instead of a bustling
campaign headquarters. all Is
quiet in Denver. The, tents
have been folded and the cap
tains and the kings have de-
parted.
I am informed, If not very
reliably, that when both dis
cordant elements of the Re-
publican leadership were here
someone suddenly realized that
Denver was close to the great
divide-and it was time for a
change before this unhappy
symbolism became too apparent.
Whatever the reason, I'm
afraid my neighborS in Spring.
field, ILL.,. are not going to get
the relief you have had. I
established my campaign head
quarters there rather than in
New York or Washington. And
they will still be in Springfield
on November 4. We know that
truth resided there once-in the
great heart of Abraham Lincoln.
And I know of no more promis-
ing place to look for it now.
There is deep personal salts
faction for me in the fact that
this-my first talk on my first
extended campaign trips
sponsored by the independents
who are organizing across the
Nation in my support. I am
reminded Of the dark and often
lonely days of my first venture
into political life in 1948. Few
really believed then that /, a
Democrat, could be elected
Governor Of Illinois. But there
were a lot Of independents
minded people in Illinois who
believed in me enough to work
hard for my election.
In Illinois the independents
(and I include in this term all
those who wear a party label
over their hearts but not over
their eyes) shared with me, I
think, certain ideals and objec-
tives for the State government.
They believe in the relevance
of these ideals and objectives for
government at all levels.

Text Of Gov Steyenson's Speech Delivered at Denver

jectives, on policies to guide. the
Nation, they have wholehearted-
ly united on one profound po-
sition: Its time for a change"
You will hear this phrase
many times-usually at the end
of a long string of invective in
which each Of the following
words will appear at least once:
Crime. corruption and cronies;
bossiSm, blundering and bum
Cling; stupidity and socialism
(either the creeping or gallop-
ing variety, depending on the
degree of Inflammation of the
speakar). Indeed, apparently
you are going to hear little else.
But don't pause for an answer
to the question which must
come to your mind: Change to
what?" because you may have
to pause indefinitely.
I've read the Republican plat
form. which is pretty good as a
"whodunit," but it does not tell
us what kind of a dometic or
foreign policy we are going to
change to. I've listened to the
convention and post-convention
oratory and don't know vet
what legislation of the past 20
years is to be changed or
changed to what. Nor have I
heard yet to what new foreign
policy we could be committed,
unless it is the reckless. sugges-
ton of a war of liberation which
has frightened everyone except
the Russians:
No. the guide posts and the
road maps to the new Utopia
which change will build are not
yet visible. But meanwhile the
Republican candidates seem to
have clasped. all the social gains
of the past 20 years to their
bosoms with a touching me

mains the sincerest form of
