Lowell MeNett:

One Of the lowest things in
politics is the roorback and !
have just escaped being guilty,
in an innocent sort of way, for
not one, but two. A roorback is
a false or defamatory statement
uttered or circulated too late in
a political campaign to permit
the victim to make effective de-
nial. Both of my offenseS re-
volve around Senator Richard
Nixon, Republican candidate
for Vice President, although he
was the victim of only one of
them.
I was guilty Of quoting, as
though it were true. this state
ment in NewsWeek Magazine:
"Neighbors insist Nixon had
never laid eyes on Checkers, the
now-famous cocker spaniel he
alluded to so knowingly in his
September % TV speech.
Checkers arrived at the Nixon
home after the Senator had left
to campaign"
The Senator's administrative
assistant telephoned me yester-
day to tell that this is untrue:
that Checkers and the Senator
had met before the latter's tele-
vision performance. So hasten
to correct the statement, lest
the election be unfairly affected.
The other close call concerns
The Lone Ranger. In explaining
the professional excellence of
Nixon's television show I said
that it was produced by Edward
A. Rogers and identified him as
the producer Of such MASTER
pieces as THE Lone Ranger {"

Dorothy Thompson:

We Americans like to think
in terms of personalities and
play up the candidate over the
party. In this campaign there
has even been a tendency to
play the candidates against
their parties, either to picture
them as "captives," or to deny
that they are under any leading
strings.
This latter is absurd. Each
candidate owes his nomination
to a party and his election to
forces gathered under a party
banner. From these he picks
his administration and the COM

PHILADELPHIA. Oct. 30
The New York Times says that
Gen. Eisenhower got one good
break more than a month ago

Emmett j. Hughes, a senior edi-
tor of Life. Mr.. Hughes, ac-
cording to the Times, produced
the idea that the general should
promise to go to Korea person.
ally, if elected, in the hope of
ending the war there.
Gov. Stevenson thinks he got
a good break when that story
was told. He regards it as proof
Of his charge that the Eisen-
hover trip to Korea is merely
a slick idea to catch votes. Yes
terday he hammered on it.
He serves it with Senator
Taft's wry comment, so typical
of Senator Taft: Il don't think
Eisenhower or any one else ex-
pected his presence in Korea
would make the North Koreans
fall over backward"
Gov. Stevenson is no dema-
gogue, but he Is artful. He
manages such effects very well
and it is the sort of campaign
ing Americans like. Some Of
his advisers wish he had
changed pace to it long since
but he was determined to get
those issues on the record.
There is special edge to his
voice on that Korean trip. Be-
cause the fact is that some of
