Major Maneuvers In Stevenson's Strategy Become Clearer As He Gets Off To Whirlwind Start In Campaign; Ike Confident Of Labor — By The Associated Press Gov. Adiai Stevenson’s first ma- jor addresses indicate his cam- paiga st-ategy will lean heavily @ «@ 4-punch attack emphasizing | “You never had it so good” and an attempt to stamp his Republi- can presidential opponent, Gen. | - Dwight D. Eisenhower, as a ‘“me- too”’ candidate. And political analysts were try- ing to determine what, if any, sig- nificance lies in the fact that in opening speeches—both in New | York before the national American Legion convention—Stevenson got mere applause, Eisenhower a larg- ‘er crowd. Stevenson, Democratic presiden tial candidate, in his Legion speech and in another delivered Wednes- day night: ata Democratic -rally near Asbury Park, N. J., hit hard ; 1. Prosperity—“‘The people of this country are better off than BF See vores are: seer Mer Fk 2,. Mé-tooism—‘‘On. domestic pol- peliiies slowly ast" raoclaatly ) ly an juctantly | accepting the ideas successfully sponsored by the Democratic Par-. ty years ago. . . It looks mote and more to me as though they are going to stand on our program.”. 3. Foreign policy—‘‘The Repub- licans are split wide open on for- eign policy. . . Some of us are reluctant to admit that peace ‘can- not be won by some clever diplo- ; time Democrat, told Eisenhower | matic maneuver or by propa- ganda.” 4, MeCarthyism—‘I am not in “ the’ delicate position “of another - eandidate for high office, who fac- ~@s the ticklish problem of whether. to swallow his principles and en- dorse all the candidates running on the same ticket with him.” Eisenhower has said he. would support Sen. Joseph McCarthy, the controversial lican sénator from Wisconsin, if McCarthy’ is re-nominated. But-Eisenhower add- ed at the time he would not give endorsem: blanket ent to any one who “does anything I believe .to be unamerican in ‘methods or pro- cedure.” : ‘ ij Some have charged that McCar- thy has gone too far with some Senate Probers Hit Gadgets, Gimmicks And of his. Communists-in-government accusations. Sen, William F. Knowland (R.- Calif.) said .Wednesday in Seattle | that. Eisenhower’s proposed -sup- (port of McCarthy was based on the general’s recognition of the importance of Republicans win- ning control of the Senate. ,, Knowland said Eisenhower wou'd be- under a “‘terrific handicap” if he -were elected without such cor trol,-and added: “In this year: close race, the party can’t affor' to lose a seat in Wisconsin.” On foreign policy, Stevenson’: statement that the GOP prograr was about as firm as “a bushe of eels” drew a quick retort fron GOP..Sen. Mundt of South Dakota, who said the Republican. platforn is better than “what Stevenson is attempting to do—to stand on a bushel of red herrings.” President Truman once said that. certain: charges of Commu- nism-in-government were just red herrings. Both Eisenhower and Steven- son continued mapping campaign strategy today in‘New York, con- | ferring with party leaders and supporters. Eisenhower scheduled a busy day, bolstered by word that he can edfint on a “surprising” labor vote. Rieliard J. Gray, Albany, N. Y., president of the three million-mem- ber. AFL building and Construction Trades Department and a long- he believed his and many other labor’ organizations were swinging to the general. Eisenhower's schedule included conferences. with delegations of Americans of Italian. and Polish “descent; John Dickerson, GOP New Jersey state. chairman; New York state officials; railway labor chiefs; and GOP committeewomen from the East. Stevenson addresses the Volun- teers-for-Stevenson, a New York Democratic group, and the Demo- cratic State Committee and the Liberal Party State Committee. He plans to return to his Springfield, Ill, headquarters Friday to round out details of his first major tour— a 7,000-mile swing—opening Sept. 1. | Outside the main political arenas | there were these developments: The governors of Texas and Lou- } isiana made strikingly similar | statements concerning Stevenson's opposition to state control of sub- merged oil-rich coastal lands: Gov. Allan Shivers of Texas said Stevenson’s stand on what. Is ‘mown as the tidelands issue— nade public Saturday—is not the only reason he won’t vote for him. Another is that he believes Ste- venson will continue such Truman policies as compulsory FEPC and health insurance, high spending and taxation, and centralization of powers in Washington. He hinted that Eisenhower's aame might even be put on the fexas Democratic Party ticket as a presidential nominee—if Texans ‘indicated they wanted this. | Gov. Robert Kennon of Louisi- ana, giving a first public glimpse into how he feels about Stevenson, said the candidate’s stand on tide- {lands is just “Strike 2” against ‘him, “Strike 1”: He is too close to Truman. | Kennon noted, however, that he has not yet made up his mind j whether to vote for Stevenson or : Eisenhower. Sen. McCarthy, who said earlier he would be unable to campaign for re-election because of a recent operation, apparently has changed his mind. He announced he plans a major campaign speech in Wis- consin Sept. 3. McCarthy also accused former Sen. Millard Tydings (D.-Md.) and former U. S. Ambassador to Rus- sia Joseph Davies of helping fi- nance the cdmpaigns not only of his Democratic opponents, but also his GOP opponent, Len Schmitt. ‘Tydings and Schmitt promptly de- nied the charges, and Schmitt add- ed: “McCarthy is now claiming he needs money for his campaign. He can get $25,000 tomorrow morning from Mr. Tydings if he (McCar- ! thy) will name one Communist in the State Department. That is the reward Tydings has offered him.” McCarthy was quoted as saying three years ago there were 205 Communists in the State Depart- ment. Tydings offered a rewara | if he could prove even one existed, Thursday, August 28, 1952 Four Brink’s Guards Fired WASHINGTON .@—Four Brink’s guards were out of a job today because they had lunch together Monday. ¢ While they were eating in a hotel cafeteria their unguarded armored truck was rifled of $65,000 in cash.
