The Democrats Tonight?

The Democrats Tonight!
Washington, July 23
Though the Democratic manage
ment is all set for another attempt
to reveal a winning anti-EiSen-
hover issue for 1856 (if one can be
found, there is no expectation,
even among themselves, that they
will succeed. Tonight that voluble
but unfortunate gentleman, Chair
imam Paul Butler of the National
Committee, aided by Senators
Estes Kefauver and Albert Gore,
of Tennessee, is scheduled again
to blast away at the President and
his Administration.
1t is not only that the Messrs.
Butler, Kefauver and Gore do not,
| themselves constitute a particular
ly formidable party trio and are
not exactly at the summit" po-
litically, which makes the rally at
which they are to figure seem less
than momentous. There are other
facts considerably m ore over
whelming that, unless they explode
some truly amazing charge, will
keep it from a place in history.
For example, the absence of the
President at the Geneva conference
concededly is a great handicap to
politicians such as are performing
tonight.
Obviously, it imposes restrictions
and restraints upon them. Any ViO-
lent personal attack would certain
ly react unfavorably on the attack
err. 1t is, in fact, a little difficult to
see what could be said in the way
of criticism which would not, to
say the least, appear in bad taste
while the President, in a time of
great national crisis, is represent
ing the nation in a foreign country.
1t will be interesting to see how
the Tennessee senators and the
new national chairman handle that
situation and still make their dis
approval of Mr.. Eisenhower cf-
fectiVe.
But, entirely aside from the in
ternational situation in which the
President is playing so outstanding
role and for whose success the

regardless OF party, IS deeply dnHl-
ouS-Wholly aside from that, the
Democrats are not devoid of other
troubles, mostly of domestic ma
ture. For one thing, there is the
serious illness of their senatorial
leader, Senator Johnson, of Texas.
Though his successor, Senator
Clements, of Kentucky, is capable
and sound party man, they miss the
Johnsonian legislative skill and eX-
pericncc. While by no means the
political marvel many of his
journalistic admirers portray, he
still was the best available man as
the Senate leader.
Another thing more than little
discouraging to the labor and left
wing elements so dominant for so
long in the Democratic party) is
the diminishing enthusiasm not
only among party leaders but
among voters generally for the
leading Democratic presidential
aSpirant-Mr. Adlai Stevenson. 1t
is fair to say that Mr.. Stevenson is
the leading Democratic candidate
because now his candidacy is
recognized and transparent. 1t is
also fair to say that in recent weeks
there has been rather marked
leSSening not only of the notion
nominee of the next Democratic
convention but that he is the only
Democrat who can win. There are
several reasons for this change in
Democratic feeling. One is that Mr..
SteVcnson's recent speeches, which
back in 1852 were hailed as witty,
and even classic, have not really
"rung the bell" As one of his old
friends recently remarked, they
Just do not quite make the grade.
Partly, this is due to the fact
that Mr.. Stcvcnson-or any other
Democrat-haS not been able to
make out a case against the Presi-
dent; and partly to the fact that
Gov. Averell Harriman'S candidacy
for President, backed by Tammany
Leader De Sapio is of such
strength as to make Mr.. Stevenson
something less than the unani-
nous choice of his party-to say
nothing of the country. 1t is true
that Mr.. Hartman says he is now
for Mr.. Stevenson, but definitely
he does not say it in such a way as
to repudiate the De Sapio indorse-
ment.
Thus, the Democratic party APP
pears left in a position where its
leading candidate - Mr.. Stevenson
whom Mr. Eisenhower beat pref
ty badly in 1952-is the probable
nominee in 1856, though no one
claims that Mr., Stevenson has
gained any voting strength since
he then ran and nearly everybody
comedies that Mr.. Eisenhower has
greater mass popularity than he
had then The undoubted SLOW
down" of Stevenson as candidate
is too clear to be mistaken At the
time this is written Mr. Eisenhower
is still at Geneva and there is no
opportunity to assay his perform
ance there.

the audience becoming more and

feet-but not in emotions. They
were right with us.
"Then came Slaughter on

At its end. I was supposed to
