nee also revealed that as President
he would not appoint an American
Ambassador to the Vatican, but
sees no disadvantage in the send
ing OF a personal representative.
Answering questions freely on
every subject, Gov. Stevenson also
told reporters that:
!. He welcomes the support of
Republicans whose hopes for new
leadership have been dashed" by
the reunion of Senator Taft and
Gen. Eisenhower.
Hopes for Tax Reductions.
2. He foresees tax reductions
beginning in fiscal year 1855 II
world conditions get no worse.
3. He still thinks outright re-
peal of the Taft Hartley Law is
the best way to begin writing a
new labor law, but is more con-
cerned over results than methods.
When asked if at this moment
he indorses all Democratic candi-
dates, the Governor without hesi-
tation replied:
II do not. I will indorse in
dividualS."
He Endorsed by name John
Cashmere as the Democratic
senatorial candidate in New York.
When the question of Nation
wide Endorsement of Democrats
first came up, the Governor said
he would have to know the can
didates.
Utmost Regard for Byrd.
Some one then asked what he
would say about Senator Byrd
when he speaks in Richmond Sat-
urday.
The Governor said the ques-
toner would have to wait and see,
but he quickly added that he has
the utmost regard" for Senator
Byrd's public service and respects
his desire to reduce Federal spend
ing and admires his integrity. AS
to the Senator's views on all SUBJ
jects, he reserved the right to
disagree.

every party does. But he said that
the differences between Democrats

effectiveness of the party as are

The Governor began his press
conference by reading a prepared
statement in which he said the

The text of this statement fol-
lows:
Since returning to Springfield
I have had an opportunity to re-
fleet on some of the recent devel-
opments of the Republican cam
paign, particularly the generals
surrender to Senator Taft.
Senator Taft says he prepared
his statement before he saw the
general. This must be the first
time that the vanquished dictated
the peace terms to the victor.
From what I've read and mes
sages I've received, I gather that
the Republican progressives who
fought so hard for the general at
Chicago are wondering what has
become of the great crusade.
So am I.

are far from being a laughing
matter, so far as he is concerned.
There was no direct reference to
the light-hearted campaign tech
|nique which characterized Gov.
Stevenson's bid for the presidency,
but the reference was obvious.
His decision to leave the service
to answer the call to political duty.
he said. was a solemn one.
Singles Out Korean War.
"As we face the issues of the
campaign, I see nothing funny
about them and no way to make
them amusing" he declared. The
basic American principles are i'm
Iperiled and there's nothing anus
ling about that"
In particular, the G. o. P.
nominee singled out the Korean
war-"A war into which we were
fumbled without any plan for
winning"-as not a fit subject for
wit.
This is serious" the general
said. I'VE must turn our hearts
and minds to ways of bringing it
to close SO that your sons and
mine can either come home or
don't have to CO."
Accompanied by Jenner.
The general spoke from a plat
form set up in front Of the Fort
Wayne railroad station. In spite
of the early hour. the square was
filed with people and hundreds
more watched from windows of
buildings nearby. AS the general
mounted the stand, accompanied
by Senator Jenner, there was q
loud cheer. The speech was not
designed to whip up much of an
emotional demonstration, but it
seemed to get across well.
Senator Jenner, along with Sen
ator Capehart and other Indiana
Republican leaders, had joined the
Eisenhower special as it rolled
along on the start of its 12-day
12-State trip.
After the Fort Wayne speech,
the train moved on toward South
Bend for a 1890 motorcade tour
of Notre Dame University and
another speech at the courthouse
plaza at 11:15 am.
More rear platform speeches
were scheduled at LaPorte (12:45
p.mo, Gary d:45). and Indiana
Harbor (2:10). At Englewood, Ill,
a platform has been set up so that
Gen. Eisenhower can say a few
words before climbing aboard an
other motorcade for the drive to
Joliet, Wheaton, Aurora and OF
tawa, with speeches at each stop.
At 8 pm. the general will get back
on his train for the overnight trip
to Minnesota and another day
planned along much the same
lines.
Opposes Socialized Medicine.
Before leaving New York yester-
day, Gen. Eisenhower in a state
ment came out fatty against COM
lpulsory health insurance and $50
Icialized medicine" saying it would
result in "less and poorer medical
care" at higher costs.
Declaring that a voluntary re-
lationship between doctor and pa
tient had achieved the best medi-
cal care in the world for the
American people, the general
warned:
1--WE must look forward to
progress and expansion of the
good rather than resort to any
foolish experiment that would
nullify what our system has al
ready achieved"
The statement-which follows
closely the line advocated by the
American Medical Association
was considered reply to Gov
stevenson, who has come out in
flavor Of Federal aid in certain
cases of chronic illness. Gov
stevenson, however, has not advo.
lcated compulsory Federal health
