Truman Tells
ADA, Be Bold
Moderation Is Out
At Convention Here
BY MARY McGRORY

Fired by a fighting letter from
that old letter writer, ex-Presi-
dent Truman, delegates of
Americans for Democratic Ac-
tion convened today at the
IShoreham and promptly turned
their backs on the moderation
now SO fashionable in many
political circles.
Mr.. Truman counseled the
liberals to be bold" to bring
out the real issues from behind
the smokescreen and help all
the people to reach an informed
opinion"
F.! In one scathing sentence he
said, after three years of con-
icealment and complacency the
Eisenhower administration il
preparing for us another election
campaign of high-level presi.
Dental smiles and low-level vict
presidential smears."
Farm Prices Stressed
The former President alsC
charged that his successor ha,
allowed the grand alliance OF
the free nations to fall into de-
cay" He SAID Mr.. Eisenhower
farm policy was cruel one OF
lower farm prices and fewer
farmers. He also made refer
ience TO "the course of bigneSs'
and "the socialism of corporate
power"
At a press conference welcom-
ing the convention at which 600
delegates are expected. National
ADA Chairman Joseph L. Rauh
Ijr., praised the three candidates
for the Democratic presidential
nomination, but said he hoped
that the ADA convention would
stick to The issues and make nc
Endorsements.
If they do. Mr.. Rauh said, il
will certainly not be the present
occupant of the White House
Asked if he considered President
Eisenhower a liberal. Mr.. Rauh
said emphatically no.
Three Democrats Endorsed
All of the three Democratic
front runners, Adlai Stevenson,
Senator Kefauver and Gov. Har-
riman of New York, would merit
the Endorsement of liberals, Mr.
Rauh said.
/ The chairman of the National
Executive Committee, Robert R
Nathan, was questioned about
the role of the liberal ADA in a
year of moderation. He replied
in effect that he did not think
moderation is here to stay.
/ Il think such talk stems from
lack of leadership in the lib.
eral 'front.'" he said, because
the liberals have failed to push
vigorously on liberal matters
The presence of Eisenhower in
the White House and Nixon's
behavior in the Vice Presidency
have placed personalities SC
much to the fore as to SUBJ
ordinate the real issues. ADA
wants to emphasize the issues
and feels if people understand
them that moderation will not
prevail over dynamic liberal

Democrats would adopt a civil
rights platform as strong as
that of 1852. Any compromise
