Some of Mr.. Stevenson's more
intellectual friends are disap-
pointed that he has abandoned the
role of the moderate and reason
able, though reluctant candidate,
and gotten down into the bear pit
where he seems willing, as are the
others to do anything to gain the
nomination. There is, indeed. a con-
siderable contrast between the Ste
venson of four years ago. who in.
sisted upon being drafted" and
dealt only in ideas and ideals and
the Stevenson of today, who is
demagoguing away with the best
OF them and who no longer
scruples to make large general
charges which he cannot sustain

tortion of the facts, and no partisan
eXaggeration No one, Of course, ex-
pected the garrulous Senator HUI
bert Horatio Humphrey, Of Mime
sofa, the cmbittered Senator Wayne
Morse, of OREGON, or Chairman
Batter Of the Democratic National
Committee to be hampered by
these proclamations. However,
there was rather general eXpec-
tation that the aspmanls, them
selves, would more or less conform
to this idea. In particular. it was
expected that Mr.. Stevenson, who
is still the front runner" among
the Democratic candidates, would
adhere to that notion Four years
ago. and up TO quite recently Mr.
Stevenson has been the highest
planer of them all.
However, since the Minnesota
primaries, in which Senator Ke-
fauyer gave him such an uneX-
rccted clubbing, Mr. Stcven.on
mas thrown all this hi'h.plane bu>i-
ness out the window" and has got
ten right down on the Kefauver
level of personal Eisenhower abuse.
There now seems to be a contest
between the Messrs Kefauver and
Stevenson as to which can out
demagogue the other. At the mo-
ment il looks like a deadheat They
join in depicting the President as
a tool of the special interests" who
cares nothing at all for the welfare
of the ordinary man or woman
in particular. cares nothing for the
farmer They not only denounce
both the Eisenhower domestic and
foreign policies, but they berate
him personally for a lack of lead
ership" and failure 10 live up to
his promises" In this more or less
general indictment, in which the
inactive" Governor Hartman has
now joined and which is ardently
supplemented by Chairman Butler,
they not only distort the facts but
ignore them.

cal institutions. It's equipment
is as modern as today.
Visitors gaped at the cheerful
rooms in a variety of colors,
with attractive bedspreads and
draperies. The beds are not at
all like the traditional high hos
pital bed. They are of average
height and a flick of a button
sends them up to hospital bed
height.
The nurseries in the obstet-
|rical section of the hospital had
women gurgling. The walls are
done in soft pastels and each
crib for the newborn was spread
with a light yellow blanket.
The lighting arrangements are
revolutionary. Patients can direct
the lights down upon the bed.
or up toward the ceiling, or ex-
Itinguish the bed lights and have
only a dim light set low in the
wall, out of a sleeper's eye range.
Nurses on night duty are pro-
vided with floor lamps with a
variety of directional beams.
The tables that arch over the
beds have easel tops, with one
side mirrored. X-ray and surgery
and laboratory equipment Is the
latest in those lines.
Patients at the old hospital at
Second and D streets Sc. will
be moved to the new building
April 4. The day after that the
new hospital will begin admitting
new patients.
The new building has beds fol
