They gave repeat performances in
Martinsburg. w. Va. and Silver
Spring.
I'VE were all glad too. of course,
though it was a bit of a shock,
especially before, breakfast" she
said while relating the story later
at a noon press conference at the
Hotel Statler.
Lots to Say
Mrs. Dick says she made a diff
ferent speech each time. Il had
a lot Of things to say. and I only
had about a minute each time" +"
"Some of the Governors ad-
visors thought he was making a
political mistake in flying out to
Illinois," she said (this was be-
fore news of the riot settlement
had reached Washington. " But
he didn't pay any attention to
them. Adlai Stevenson has never
been the kind Of a person who
makes decisions on the basis of
expediency. If duty and expedi-
ency conflict. duty wins out"
Mrs. Dick, who has been on the
Stevenson train since the last
whistle-stop trip started 10 days
ago. says she is delighted by the
great enthusiasm of the crowds, :"
and particularly by the feeling
of dedication" among so many Of
the volunteers.
Mrs. Oscar Chapman, whose
husband, the Secretary of the In
terror, is in charge of liaison be-
tween the Democratic organization
and various special groups such
as the volunteers. commented that
her husband reported the same
thing. "ae says the volunteers
are incomparably more enthusi-
astic than they were in 1948," Mrs.
Chapman said.
Mrs. Dick predicted the Steven
son-Sparkman ticket would make
a "clean sweep" of the IL Mid
western and Eastern States which
the Governor has visited in the
last 10 days. The States are In
diana. Ohio, New York. Pennsyl-
vania, Massachusetts,, Rhode
Island. Connecticut. New Jersey,
West Virginia, Maryland and
Delaware.
AdIoi Will Hold Illinois
Her own State of Illinois will
also go to the Governor, she pre-
dicted, because "a lot of Repub-
licans who switched parties to
vote for Stevenson in '48 will do
SO again because he has made
such a wonderful record as Gov
ernor."
She admitted his majority would
be nothing like the SOC. .0OO-odd by
which he won the Governorship,
since "a lot of Republicans don't
mind voting for a Democrat for q
State office but they don't like to
do it for President"
In response to question, Mrs.
Dick said that she thought Gov.
Stevenson would pull a large
women's vote. II think women
admire Gen. Eisenhower, but his
training has all been in working
out military problems with the
military mind. Gov. Stevenson
has had experience working out
civilian solutions. A great many
mothers with sons would rather
see Stevenson in the White House
and Eisenhower out doing what he
knows how to do"
Mrs. Dick left the campaign
train long enough to hold q press
conference, visit the D. C. Steven
son-Sparkman club, and be guest
OF honor at luncheon given by
Mrs. George Ball. whose husband.
a District attorney, is executive
director Of the National Volun-
teers for Stevenson. She flew to
New York later in the day to

of the Communists.
