the debate inside the United

would seem that a candidate

would come forth with a
formula whereby those who are

Mr.. Stevenson'S tactics thus
far have been on the negative
side-an attempt to prove that
the Nation is in a bad way and
needs a change of regime. The
argument would become more
persuasive If it were on the
affirmative side, and if con-
structive policies to improve
the economic situation could
be proposed that would appeal
to the independent voters as
worthy Of their support.

Candidate Reproved by Newspaper
For Negative Approach in Campaign

venson's first speeches and said
in an editorial:
1.-THE campaign is young. and
Mr.. Stevenson will have many
opportunities to say more IN
these and other subjects. We
believe it Is a fair statement,
however, that at certain points
the early days Of his campaign
have been disappointing to a
considerable number Of inde-
pendent voters"
Much of the criticism is
directed at Mr.. StevenSon's
promise to end the military
draft "at the earliest possible
moment consistent with ma
tional safety" Some news
papers read into this a tend
ency to let down the Nations
guard. and fears are expressed
that neutralist sentiment in
Europe will be encouraged and
that all this will play into the
hands of the Soviet Union.
The Communist newspapers
seem to like some of the things
that Mr.. Stevenson has been
saying. A Moscow dispatch to
the New York Times a few days
ago says:
1.-THE Soviet press congratu-
lated Adlai Stevenson on hav-
ing utterly refuted' President
Eisenhower's assertion that
the United States now en-
joyed a record prosperity"
"Trud," the newspaper or
gan of the Soviet trade unions,
said, for example, that Mr..
Stevenson had made "a num-
Der of valuable admissions"
when he told a Labor Day
crowd in Detroit that there
were 100000 Americans in
families with less than $1,000
income per year, whereas the
average Soviet factory worker
is supposed to earn $2,40O a
year.

comments coming in from in

Thus, for example, the AS

sometimes supports Democrats
and sometimes Republicans
for the presidency, reproves
Mr.. Stevenson for what it
terms "the sneer approach"

the recent Stevenson speeches:
II only hope my opponent
has time to face some of the
realities of our declining in
fiuence abroad and our lost
opportunities at homeland /

The New Jersey editorial
then says:
"Mr. Stevenson's scornful
reference to the Presidents

him in some quarters, but the
Nation will not be impressed.

golf provides relaxation and

forte, he will have only himself

Moscow Still Using Subtle Tactics;
Communism Seen as Election Issue

Vice President Nixon has
voiced a timely warming on the
continuing danger of Com
munist subversion to the
United States and to the en-
tire Free World.
He gave a sober, nonpar-
tisan appraisal of the situation
when he told the American
Legion in Los Angeles last week
that well intentioned but
misguided people" who urged
a softer approach to the Red
issue were falling for the cur
rent smiles of Moscow du-
plicity.
The Vice President avoided
inflammatory charges and all
semblance of suggestion of
treason" on the part of his
political adversaries. But he
was clearly accurate and con-
sentative in his statement that
the Communist conspiracy is
stepping up. not slowing down,
its campaign Of internal sub
version in the United States
and in other countries.
Nov is the time to increase
our vigilance. not to relax it"
he said.
There can be no doubt about
the truth of Mr.. Nixon's words.

forces Of our Government know
full well that the Kremlin-
directed, Communist conspiracy
is barrelling ahead on a full
steam basis. All that has

Perhaps the most curious of
all the Communist tactical
moves recently has been their
plaintive appeal to the effect
that they have recently
proven" that there are no
links directly between the
Communist Party of the United
States and the Kremlin.
This, of course, is not really
new. Way back in the 30s, the
American Reds were fond of
claiming the same nonsense
But this time they expect the
