Its discussions—and Stevenson's voice—were out of harmony with in the “‘snoot” and which became a stronghold of the America First of a chai im the Alger Hiss case and in some points fresh receptacles ynpopular acts as governor of Illi-. The first Hiss nois. He held resolutely to his foreign policy views. In 1940 after Adolf | Hitler’s panzers sliced through Northern France to Paris, he be- came Chicago chairman of the William Allen White Committee to | defend America by aiding the Al- lies.

J. The machinery he devised served as a pattern for 60 subse- quen® seizures. After Japan’s Dec. 7, 1941 strike against Pearl Harbor plunged the U. S. into World War II, Stevenson was dispatched to the Caribbean | | area and the Panama Canal Zone to gather information on defense preparations. Next, he accompanied Knox and | high Navy officers on a tour of | the nation’s bastions in the Pa- cific. Further wartime travels lay ahead. Before he was through, | Stevenson visited Algeria, Tunis ‘and Liberia in Africa, and Italy, France, England, Belgium, Hol- land, Luxumbourg and Germany | in Europe. Perhaps his most important as- signment was as chief of a Foreign | Economic Administration mission | to Italy. Its purpose was to plan | for relief and rehabilitation of the liberated areas. His report, covering agriculture, industry, communications, curren- cy, transportation and import prob- lems, won commendation from su- periors in Washington as a model document of its kind. In Italy, Stevenson met the man |who eight years afterwards was | | to be his rival for the presidency— | ' Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower. “It says ‘Adlai,’ said Trellis!

I think that one of the most fundamental tespon- sibilities, not only of every citizen but particularly of lawyers, is to give testimony in a court of law, to give it honestly and willingly, and it will be a very unhappy day for Anglo - Saxon justice when a man, even a man in public life, is too timid to state what he knows and what he has heard about a defendant in a criminal trial for fear that the defendant might later be convicted.’” Then the interviewer asked: “Now that so many of the facts have come out in the Hiss case, what is your judgment or feeling about the verdict of the court.” “I am a lawyer,” Stevenson re- plied. “I believe explicitly that a jury of one’s peers must find the right answer or else we can have no faith in our judicial system.” (Wednesday: A landslide Illinois governor) Teday’s B-isiness Niirrer By SAM DAWSON NEW YORK #—Gold — and the long controversy over its role as money — is back in the news | again on two counts: 1.
