Southern Pines, North Carolina Friday, October 24. 19S2 Coveil Tells Club Of Contacts WitH Rotarians Abroad His European itinerary with em phasis on Rotary contacts was the theme of a talk made at Friday’s Rotary club meeting by the Rev. C. V. Coveil, who, with Mrs. Co- vell, recently returned from a va cation trip to England, Scotland, France and Switzerland. The ■ luncheon was held at the Village Inn.

Stevenson For President ^ ■ J ■ ■ ^ Jk —II JL .A * «Mk A The St. Louis Post-Dispatch and The Louisville Courier-Journali two of the nation's most respected newspa- port of Governor Adlai E. Stevenson. Both newspapers have a long tra dition of courageous and independen perSi recently announced their sup- thinking. St. Louis Post-Dispatch ^ A Man With Unusual Qualitie ^c*Ai^«.cktQ-i*v nf Defense aiMfl A • mhR ■ In announcing its support for Governor Stevenson, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch declared; “The Independent voter, to our opinion, Will serve the best interests of the country as a whole by voting for Adlai Ste venson for President.” Elaborating the reasons behind its decision, the Post-Dispatch said; “Gov. Stevenson ... is con ducting a straightforward cam paign in which he discusses frankly one issue after another. He has displayed courage’ time after time. Before veterans, before farmers, before labor leaders, he has presented a con ception of the presidency above special groups and serving all the people. , ^ . "In Richmond he restated ms civil rights position, and said: •I should justly earn your con tempt if I talked one way in the South and another way else where.’ “This appeal's to be the hey to the character of Adlai E. Stevenson. He has a high code of integrity and he lives up to it. That he is remarkably endowed intellectually is evident from the way in which he is present ing the problems of the times.” Toft’s Own Terms In discussing the capture of General Eisenhower by the GOP Old Guard the Post-Dispatch editorial stated that Senator Taft “in effect dictated his own terms for supporting General Eisenhower." “Gen. Eisenhower’s great handicap with respect to Con gress, on which he, as all Presi dents, would need to depend, is thtDt his senatorial running mates in many states, have fought bitterly the foreign poli cies he himself advocated in winning the nomination over Senator Taft. It may sound ex treme to describe the 'Class of. ■46’—the first group of postwar Senators—as probably the worst in congressional history, but then the ‘Class of ’46' is an ex treme collection . . . “In this group of Senators are lenner of Indiana, who called former Secretary of Defense Marshall ‘a living lie,’ said Mc Carthy of Wisconsin, who de nounced the same splendid American as ‘a man steeped in _ falsehood.’ Gen. Eisenhower, who owes his selection as Su preme Commander in World War H to Gen. Marshall, has de fended his military benefactor but he has also endorsed for re- election the men who have made a public career of slander and of /opposing the foreign policies Gen. Eisenhower himself stood for . . "If the ‘Class of ’46’ is sent back to Washington the Cains and McCarthys will be in line for chairmanships of important committees. Since congressional government is government by committee, what happens in Washington will be largely in their hands. A President with scant experience in politics woufi be even more dependent on his congressional leaders. If ' experience is any guide, the gloss of unity would soon be gone and the Republican civil war would break out anew . . • Distorting Facts The Post-Dispatch took Gen eral Eisenhower to task for dis torting the facts about World Wars I and II and the Korean war. The paper pointed out that the General says the “Adminis tration has bungled us perilously close to World War III” and that the Korean war follows “two world wars in our genera tion.” “This distorts the facts,” said the Post-Dispatch. “Gen. Eisen hower, as a professional military .man„kMws the military history of our umes. He knows that there was a madman in Europe named Hitler. He knows that before Hitler there was the Kaiser. He knows that Stalin s Communist Russia is the big question mark in the world to day. Surely Gen. Eisenhower would not have had the United States act differently after the Japanese attack on Pearl Har bor and the declaration of war against us by Hitler.

Wo hna That twogtam Induded a bal- tions wnaiwOT, oui . ««. can When The Louisville Cotirier- Joumal announced its support of Governor Stevenson it de clared in an editorial: “Stevenson trusts the Ameri can pubUc. He talks to them as matme human beings. Ho tells them that ‘this is the eve of great deidslons, not easy de- elslons, but a long, patient, costly struggle which alone can assure triumph over the great enemies of man, war and pov erty and tyranny.’" < "The marvel began,” com mented the Courier - Journal, “with his acceptance speech on that long, fagged and frazzled night that ended the Demo cratic Convention. His proposal then was: ‘Let’s talk sense to the American people.’ He hM done just that in each succeed ing speech, and his stature has continued to grow.” "We consider Stevenson s training a better background than Eisenhower’s for the vast job of the presidency. Eisen hower has performed effectively In the past as a general giving orders, and as the commandM’ of international organization which rests on the of the United States. Stevenson has worked with marked success as Governor of a major state, with a legislatwe controlled by 'the opposing party. It took rare ability and persuasiveness to move his pro gram to almost all its goals. an (NATO) might That twogtam Induded a bal anced budget, no new taxes, a smaiipr request for mcmey from his 1951 legislature than from the one in ’49 (despite infla- U<m), the firing of 1.300 surplus employees, the doubling of state aid to schools, greatly tocreased appropriations for the aged, tiie needy, the blind, and the men tally in, and an entire new system of highways financed on a pay-as-you-go basis. “Everyone agrees that leader ship is a quality an American President must positively pos sess in these times of world re sponsibility. We have seen Gov ernor Stevenson display leader ship from the day of his nomtaa- tion. Starting with no obliga tions whatever, but also with no organization, he has forged his own canqiaign. He has sur rounded himself with men such as Wilson Wyatt, new to the top mnicB of political Hfe and dis playing a fresh surge of ideal ism and dedication to principle that we have not seen in 20 years." , Turning to General Eisen hower’s capitulation to the GOP Old Guard, the Courier-Journal said: “The crusade whose banner Eisenhower carries has degen erated into nofliing nobler than a campaign to capture Washing ton for the Republican Party. “Though free to commeind his 'political staff and accept or re ject his associates, (Seneial Eisenhower embraced the candi dacies of Senators McCarthy and Jemier on the shallow argu ment that he must support aB Republicans vidio are running for office.
