On Farm Price Claim

in New orleans and Miami, but
his advisers felt that he had
demonstrated his courage sufii-
GENTLY by frankly stating his
position once in the South.
May Confer With Truman
In Kansas City tonight. Mr..
Stevenson will be introduced by
former President Truman, who
also is expected to confer with
the Democratic nominee at his
hotel before the meeting.
In his attack on administra-
ton policies in Latin America at
Miami, Mr.. Stevenson said:
1.-THE case Of the unpleasant
Argentine dictator, Peron, is q
dismal example.
"Peron's abuse Of the principles
and policies of freedom and
democracy is now written plain
in history's record. In his own
country he courted the Commu-
nists, but prosecuted with equal
fury the free press, free labor
unions, and the Catholic Church
He plotted the overthrow OF
friendly governments. He con-
nived against us and other demo-
ocratic governments in Central
America.
"Yet the record stands that
under this administration tht
United States chose to appeas
him A member Of the Presi-
dents personal family assumed
special, If informal, responsibility
for our relationships with Argen-
tina. We kept an ambassador II
Buepos Aires because Peron likeC
him !"
A member Of Mr.. Stevenson'I
staff told reporters the membel
of the Eisenhower family re.
ferred to in the speech was DR.
Milton Eisenhower. the Presi'
dents brother, who was a per
Isonal representative of thu
White House in Latin America

Mr.. Hagerty yesterday noted
that a news report from Little

about Mr.. Wilson'S operation

which the Chief Executive. was

1.-THE United Press reports to-
day that the Democratic candi-
date for President is now maxi
ing wisecracks about the recent
operation of the Secretary Of
Defense. AS you know, the Sec
rotary was operated on yester.
day at Walter Reed Army Hos
pital. The Defense Department
announced at that time that the
Secretary would be away from
his desk for about three weeks
and that the operation had
forced him to cancel three
scheduled speeches.
Il suppose Mr.. Stevenson fig-
ures that anything is fair game
for smart alexis remarks. He
may think so, but ! am certain
the American people will con-
slider his remarks about the Sec

Hits Loose Administration"
"And is it possible that the
President has not heard about
the loose administration Of the
soii bank to pour money into the
farm belt before election? Or
does the President deny that this
is playing politics. and with
huge sums Of the taxpayers

away from farmer committees

1.-THE soil bank is a good idea
II properly administered. But If
1t is debased for partisan polit-
ical purposes during this election
year, the blame must fall upon
the Eisenhower-Benson admin
istration."
Mr.. Stevenson wound UP a
vigorous day Of plane-hopping
yesterday by charging at Miami
Beach last night that the Eisen-
hover administration has pla-
Gated this country's enemies in
Latin America.
Charges Appeasing Of PerOn
More specifically, he accused
the administration of having
appeased the Argentine dictator
Juan Peron, before he fled from
the country.
The highlight of his Southern
trip, however. was his defense O.
the Supreme Court school int
grafton decision before a Grove
of more than 1000 in a public
park at Little Rock, Ark.
To the surprise of some o

listeners when he said ne fel

And. If anything. this schedule
is likely to be stepped up be-
tween now and November.
The impression, in short, Is
that despite all the outward
appearances and confident pre-
dictions Of victory. the Repub-
Ilican strategists are more than
IA little worried about how
things are going in Colorado.
And the curious fact Is that a
number Of relatively unbiased
observers in these parts seem
to share their doubts.
on balance, President Eisen-
hover is favored to carry the
State. But few will concede him
the whopping l34,000-vote ma
jority that he won in 1852, and
many believe that the rest OF
the local O. o. p,' team win have
to scramble for every vote they
can yet II they Nope to win.
There are, of course, a variety
OF reasons for this feeling. Like
other farming States in this area,
parts of Colorado are populated
by voters loud in their protests
against the farm policies Of the
administration. Mr.. Nixon;

his popularity among the audi
