Stevenson is more inaccessible than

weekly press conferences.
Senator Kefauver held a press
conference every time his plane
landed during his big campaign
swing. These were generally re-
Taxed and informal affairs.
Relations between the easy-going
Senator and reporters were ex-
tremely sunny, and there was a
great exchange of light chaff and
banter between press and staff.
Here, there has been some criti-
cism that Mr.. Stevenson's press
secretary, Clayton Fritchey, was not
sufficiently aware of the problems
of reporters. The matter has been
thrashed out and everyone is hoping

BY ROGER GREENE

With the 1856 campaign pound
ing into the homestretch, an ami
able but tough-minded former
newspaperman has emerged as one
of Adlai Stevensons top policy
advisers
Clayton Fritchey. the Democratic
presidential nominees new press
secretary, appears to have Mr.. Ste
venson'S ear--and also the authority
to speak for him. Party bigwigs
believe he's almost as close to his
boss as White House Press Secre-
tary James C. Hagerty is to Presi-
dent Eisenhower.
Unsnarling Mr.. Stevenson's press
relations. which were little short of
chaotic during the nominees first
campaign. has been one of M.
Frltcheys primary chores. Some
reporters assigned to the Stevenson
camp still remember with awe the
incredible snafus and confusion IN
1852.
In those days the Democratic
presidential nominee ran virtually
a ore -man show. While Mr.. Ste
venson was on stage, his advisers
fingered discreetly in the wings
The candidate himself was often in
sacrosanct seclusion as he polished
and rewrote his speeches until all
hours Of the night.
Today's new atmosphere, with
Mr. Fritchey calling signals, could
have major significance. For one
thing it is likely to promote hap
pier relations with newsmen as
signed to cover the closing weeks
OF the campaign. although there
are still some rough spots in the
candidates press relations. There
after If Mr.. Stevenson is elected
and Mir Fritchey stays with him,
it could signal a continuance OF the
authoritative role developed by Mr.
Hagerty.
Needles the Opposition
For the last three years. as deputy
national Democratic chairman and
editor of the Democratic Digest
magazine, Mr.. Fritchey has been a
major voice in the party's out-of-

words, it would not be "neutralist"

it would nonetheless be independent

Attitudes Chonge
That the current reawakening Of
activity is no fiash-ln-the-pan
diversion is attested by the altered
attitudes toward unity being ex-

political tradition, has long been

policy. for at least the past two CEN

Stevenson differs not one whit from
the old in that he labors over each
speech as if it we're a sonnet. Even
on the platform, Mr.. Stevenson is
busy with the pencil crossing out

Inevitably, Kefauver press people
see a gre,.t deal more of their man

Everywhere people are asking:
What about Nixon?"
Once the question was asked ac-
cusingly Now there is tone of
wonderment and surprise-from
both Republicans and Democrats.
1t is now becoming clear that
while Vice President Nixon is the
most controversial figure in politics
today, he is much more than that.
There is evidence that he, more
than any other one man, is calling
the plays in the Republican battle

many as II call-backs of half

after the election itself is over
The purpose of the Center's work
in the elections study is to try to
get at the fundamental reasons why
people vote the way they do, DR..
Campbell explains. In its 1852 study,
the Center found that three general
phenomena were important in faith
oming voting behavior: party iden-

lican or Democratic. rather than
membership in either organization,
which is much more limited, issue
orientation thow the voter felt
about economy, defense. foreign af-
fairs and Government policy, and
how the candidate as a person got
across to the voter.
OF these. party identification was
substantially the most important
for most persons, although the rela-
tive weight of each of the three
factors varied widely among voters,
DR.. Campbell explains.
This year. the Center hopes to find
out more about the relation between
attitudes on Government policy,
party Identification and voting be-
havior by exploring links between
the way a person feels about the
world generally - his attitude to-
ward the prospects for war or peace,
for example--and the way he reacts
to issues of Government policy, such
as foreign aid and defense spending.
More Details Forthcoming
The 1856 study also will develop
more information than the so sur
vey on ties between membership
in labor unions, racial, religious and
ethnic groups. and the way per-
son votes.
Greater expense and time are
factors which discourage the cleo
ton forecasterS from using the
Center's techniques of public opin-
ion analysis. according to DR..
Likert. Although its forecasts
might be the most accurate of all,
the Center will keep out of that
field and its results will not be
known until March, 1857, at the
earliest. with detailed publication
not until 1858.

Inspection or Communication

Candidate Kefauver obviously
subscribes to the Walter Lippman
theory that the campaign is an
inspection tour with the hopeful
getting the once-over from the
voters.
Mr.. Stevenson still regards it as
an opportunity to communicate with
the electorate. In Portland. Greg,
speaking to ladies' group of the
Boilmakers Union he said It under
stand that your next assignment
is voter-education. That is my as
Signment, too"
His running mate thinks no such
thing. Nor does he ever introduce
the questioning note sometimes
sounded by Mr.. Stevenson. He never
quips.

speeches were cursorily prepared.
Much more attention was paid to
the fantastic Kefauver schedule.
which was eternally being stretched
to include yet one more hamlet, vet

handed out with this peroration:

was crossed out. Such second
thoughts were extremely rare, how
