sues today are no comfort to the
q. o. p, and whatever became
of Senator Mccarthy?
On the other hand, as they
survey the political horizon, the
Democratic strategists see little
for their opposition to cheer
about. Peace there is, to be sure,
but also some points to be made
about cold-war retreat and dis
unity in the western camp. Pros
perity too. but a prosperity which
leaves large segments of the
economy in a critical and COM
planning mood. Throughout the
country, families in hook up to
their ears with credit-buying
may be looking anxiously for
the return to power of a party
traditionally solicitous about the
economic problems of the little
man.
Why, ask the Democrats, did
the Republicans lose control Of
the Congress two years ago? And
why. in many critical local and
State elections have the Demo-
Gratis swept back into power
since the great house-cleaning of
1852? Whatever explanation
may be given. it is hard to argue
that the general trend is UNI
favorable.
President Still Popular
There remains, of course the

quite clear that the whole ques-
ton is one Of mathematics, not
of fitness or issues.
He denied flatly the validity
of an assertion by the Americans
for Democratic Action that the
denomination of Mr.. Nixon would
take a dark and dangerous
gamble with the Nations future. y
Instead. he emphasized the find
ings of polls that Mr.. Nixon
would not be a strong running
mate for Mr.. Eisenhower, and
produced another poll to bolster
his position.
This poll, he said, was the

ed by DR.. Everett R. Smith. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Stassen, it showed
a majority. 1884, opposing a
second term for Mr.. Nixon, and
an even wider margin-6S- 30
opposing him in his native Far
West.
At no time in Mr.. Stassen's
appearance before the TV cam
eras did he suggest that Mr..
Nixon would not be a At candi-
date. His whole appeal was made
on the basis that Mr.. Herter
would be better than Mr.. Nixon
and that Mr.. Herter's superiority
lay in his vote-getting ability.
no Doubts on Eisenhower
After the TV program, Mr..
StaSsen said he had no doubts
whatever that Mr.. Eisenhower
would be a candidate for re-
election. He said he had not
heard this from the lips Of the
President but nevertheless ex-
pressed confidence that the Eli
Senhower hat would be in the
ring.
Under questioning, Mr.. Stasser
emphasized that his original poll
served simply to show Mr.. Nixon
trailing a list Of presumed hope

expressed the belief that any

even here the Democratic quar-
terbacks. while concedine the
problem, are not inclined to
throw in the sponge. The Presi-
dent. they recall, was popular
also in 1952-more popular, if
their calculations are correct,
than he is today.

To some, this kind Of rea-
soning, of course will appear as
the wishful sort of rationaliza-
ton which professional politi-
clans must go through on the
eve of an election. Others may
find in it grounds to wonder if
the election is really as one
sided as it seems. Or whether
the Republicans, with cheerful
predictions of a landslide vic
tory. may not be suffering from
a certain hypnosis of their own
