Stevenson Predicts
Subtle Soviet Move
To Divide West
BY the Assoeiated Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 8.-Ad1ai
E. Stevenson says Russia has
embarked on a subtle divisive
policy which will turn the cold
war into a peril-laden cold peace.
"The chances of another ma
jor war within the next 10 years
are diminishing every day." the
former Governor of Illinois
writes in the current issue of
Look Magazine.
But with the Soviet threat
less obvious and less naked-can
we maintain the teamwork that
has cemented in the shadow of
aggression?"
Lists 8 Conclusions.
Summarizing a five-month trip
in which he visited 80 countries,
the defeated Democratic candi-
date for President listed three
general conclusions.
l. Russia's objective is still
world domination-but the pa
tience, unity and strength Of the
non Communist world under
American leadership has forced
the Kremlin to adopt new tactics.
2. The non Communist world
is split by inner conflicts and i'll
will, offering the Kremlin many
opportunities ito fish in troubled
waters"
3. Americas influence and
prestige abroad is declining, with
many nations fearing "that we
are impetuous, inflexible and
dedicated to the determination
of communism"
Soviet pressure did not para
lyze the free world but forged
it's unity and rearmed America
Mr.. Stevenson wrote.
In the new Soviet approach,
he said, I'VE can expect Com
munists to encourage and ex-
plot every sign of weakness, dis
trust, misunderstanding or jeal-
ousy between us and our neigh
bors.
Americas prestige has been
damaged, he said, by ''inquis-
itions, amateur sleuths travelling
around Europe. purges of Ii
brar;es, purges in the State De-
partment and embassies, inva-
sions of the Presidents execu-
tive domain.
Cites ''McCarthyism."
He said "the phenomena of
McCarthyism" has become a
new word in the worlds die
tionary which came up in every
press conference from Tokyo to
London.
"One of Western Europe's
most responsible and respected
leaders told me that Mccarthy
ism had done America more
harm in eight months than
Soviet propaganda had done in
eight years." Mr.. Stevenson said.
He listed as the most serious
danger "the widespread impress
sion that our country is scared

countryside of our great state
during the past week end. l was
in the Capital; l slept a night at
Chapel Hill, and on Friday roam
ed the sandhill region. / was
thrilled by the glory and the
greatness, the strength and the
beauty of our state as never be-
fore.
Good roads everywhere, and
while 1 rode, the radio in the car
told me about the rugged old
patriot, Cam Morrison, who back
in the early 20's pioneered the
good roads movement in North
Carolina. He had died the day be-
fore, an "a year old patriarch of
| this same sandhill country, made
famous by its pines, its peaches
and it's pretty lassies. A country
where poverty of soil and scenery
far beyond that of our own lean
coastal region did not discourage
or disbar pioneering promoters

for the people. There is might

AS to flood control, he said one
of the things proposed was to
widen the bridge over Winkle-
doodle at Southern avenue and
Barnaby street Sc. to alleviate
the backing up of flood waters
there.
Also suggested was clearing of
the channel at South Capitol

another bridge there. All this,
it was said, would let the waters
flow comfortably into Oxon Greek
