However, even though he does
achieve this goal, the basic fact is
that the illness of Mr. Eisenhower

it is easy to understand how
"Soapy" may be unsatisfied with

ernor but is based on the fact that
the large family fortune he in
herited was made out of soap.
Mr. Williams is now a practically
undisguised candidate for the
Democratic presidential nomina-
ton. He may, as he did last time,
wind up in the Stevenson camp in
August when the convention meets,
because he is very ardent CLIO
man and close personal and po-
litical friend of Mr. Walter Reuther.
At the moment Mr. Reuther is sup
posed to be favorable to Mr.. Ste
vensOn. and certainly the Stevenson
strength mainly depends on the CLIO
in Michigan and, to some extent,
in the country. On the other hand,
"Soay" is an out and out Clio man
and Mr. ReutherS fair-haired boy.
In Michigan the more acute po-
litical observers say that the young
Governors presidential ambitions
would best be promoted by the re-
nomination and reelection (Which
they regard as most probable of
Mr.. Eisenhower This would elimi-
nate Mr.. Stevenson and greatly
promote the prospects of "Soapy'
in 1860. If Mr. Stevenson should
be elected, "Soapy's" prospect
would not be improved, because
Adlai certainly would be a candi-
date to succeed himself four years
hence.
In that event Mr.. Williams would
be faced not with the problem of
being too old The would then only
be So but with keeping himself in
the public eye for the next ten
years One way would be to be
come a member of the good Adlais
cabinet preferably Secretary of
Labor inaSmuch as so much of his
support comes from organized la
Dor sources Another way sug-
gested is that he might run for the
Senate in 1858 against Senator
Potter Republican, A third is that
he might become Vice President
with Mr.. Stevenson. This does not
appeal to "Soapy" at all. He very
distinctly visualizcs himself as a
President and not a Vice President
as is attestcd by his recent employ
ment of very high-grade, first
class publicity man.
The "Soapy" idea in thiS-so it
is said-is to improve the quality
of the many speeches for which he
is already booked up in the country
at large. 1t is considered that he
needs a little more than denunci-
alton of the Eisenhower record and
laudation of organized labor if he
is to get very far on the national
scene. "Soapy" himself, it is said,
recognizes that his speech last year
before the Gridiron Club was a
pretty bad flop. 1t was generally
regarded as not only uninspired
and dull but in somewhat poor
taste This year he is going to
make a lot of speeches and they
