Survey Of Check

A nation-wide survey Of CHECK
fraud, believed to be one OF ths
Ifast-growing crimes in the coun-
try, will be launched in January
The study will cover 1906
police departments in cities Of
more than 10000 population. II
will seek up-to- date information
on the types OF businesses most
often victimized by forgers and
other check artists, the relative
number of men, women and
Juvenile bad check passers; the
percentage of professionals as
against amateur and the degree
lof cooperation police get from
the merchants.
The survey will be conducted
by the Todd Co., Inc, Of Roch-
ester. N. Y. subsidiary of the
Burroughs Corp. of Detroit and
manufacturer of protected, in
Isured checks and check protec-
tive equipment. The company
will use the information in its

STAR CONVENTION BU-
REAU, CHICAGO, Aug. 15.-
Visions of a first ballot nomina-
ton made life roster today for
the still cautious but obviously
more assured Stevenson camp at
the Democratic National Con-
vention.
Adlai Stevenson himself, how
ever. neither admitted nor
permitted over-confidence. He
spared neither himself nor his
staff in courteous but in
creasingly relentless drive to sink
the aspirations of Gov. Averell
Hartman of New York even be-
fore the presidential nomina-
ton voting begins in the Inter-
national Amphitheater tomor-
row.
His principal aides asserted
that any setbackS suffered in

Shy on First Ballot
Privately they we're saying
with fair degree of confidence
that the total already can be
counted even closer to the 6S6 u
necessary for nomination. Yet
they remained shy about fatty
predicting victory on the first
ballot.
The Hartman forces were fan
from conceding defeat or, fol
that matter, any diminishing re-
turns in delegate support. Mr.
Hartman started another day
packed with conferences or calls
on delegations. Mr.. Stevenson
was more than a match for him
In such pursuits.
The New York Governor de-
scribed his progress yesterday
as being on a "delegate-by- dele

ton basis" He announced that

declined to have his own name
presented to the convention OF
to be voted for. He said also he
is not candidate for the vice
presidential nomination.
The action of the New Jersey
delegation was not unexpected.
However, half a dozen of the
delegates had been inclined to
go to Gov. Hartman. Gov. Mey-
ner was able to line them up for
his candidate.
A break of ''favorite son" can

Michigan delegation led by Gov
G. Mennen Williams threw the

haps on the first ballot.

The addition of New Jerseys 81

lpected to line up the required

In his last desperate effort tt
check the Stevenson drive, Mr.

Mr.. Truman sarcastically re-
lferred to the newspaper reports
that have been published since
he announced last Saturday in
favor of Gov. Hartman. which
indicated that he, Mr.. Truman,
had slipped as a politician.

Monday evening" Then he
called, and briefly postponed, a
press conference which dealt
principally with the controversy
Mr.. Butler said at this news
conference that he was in no
position to do anything about
it if CHS rejected his demand.
But he asserted that sit will just
help to crystalize in the public
mind" what restrictions or legis-
lations may be needed affecting
the broadcast industry.
"Are you suggesting that in
event of Democratic victory in
the fall and Democratic Con-
gress next year, the Democratic
party will move for more strict
control over radio and tele-
vision?"
mo-" Mr.. Butler said, "This is
not a threat"
Later Mr.. Stanton wired Mr.
Butler that lin light of all the
circumstances and after careful
consideration, we believe it inap-
propriate to accede to your de-
Imand."
The sentiment among CHS
own competitors, both newspa-
Ipers and radio-TV organizations
covering this convention, APP
Ipeared solidly on the networks
side today.
ABC issued a statement de-
Tending CHS editorial rights tc
broadcast what it believed to be
of the greatest public interest.
Newspaper reporters, reached for
comment, largely agreed with this
point of view.
Mr.. Stanton reafflrmed his po-
Sition meanwhile. In a telegram
to Mr.. Butler, he denied again
committing his network to show
the film, and added:
Far more important is the
vital issue of freedom of the press
which you raise. Those who
make the news, cannot, in a free
society. dictate to broadcasters,
as part of a free press, to what
extent. where and how they cover
the news"

Roger Tubby, Mr.. Stevenson's

later to deny specifically in be-
half of Mr.. Stevenson that there
have been any commitments or

concerning the vice presidential
nomination.
Battle on High Plane
The Stevenson Hartman
battle stayed on a fairly high
plane. The worst that Mr.. Tubby
said of the opposition was that
the Hartman forces were grow
ing desperate. James A. Finne-
gan, the Stevenson campaign
manager, said he was confident
the delegates have decided that
Mr.. Stevenson is their one hope

reporters later that Mr.. Finnegan

Mr.. Stevenson quietly declined

Mr.. Humans reported criticism
of him earlier yesterday as
being a "defeatist" candidate.
From the standpoint of news

visited Stevenson headquarters
yesterday was Walter Reuther,
head OF the United Auto Workers.
He was inside the candidate S
suite almost an hour but slipped
out by a hitherto little adver-
tised backstairs to the floor be-
low. Stevenson aides refused
to disclose the purpose of the
visit or comment on a report it
dealt with possible support from
the Michigan delegation.
In any event, Mr.. Stevenson
had no dull moments yesterday.
He seemed to be thoroughly en-
joying his fast-moving schedule
of appointments inside the suite
and sudden departures to see all
most a dozen delegations in other
downtown Chicago hotels.
He wound up the public APP
