Stevenson ‘Speaking Incredible Folly’
In Criticizing Draft, Says Eisenhower
By the Associated Press
President Eisenhower said Fri
day night Adlai Stevenson is
“speaking incredible folly" in
criticizing the military draft.
In Los Angeles, Eisenhower
covered a wide variety of cam
paign topics, among them Steven
son’s proposals on the H-bomb
and the military draft, and Dem
ocratic attacks on Vice President
Nixon.
On the H-bomb, Eisenhower
said “we cannot risk the safety of
our country upon the promise of
those who time and time again
have broken their word.”
Stevenson has proposed the
United States take the iead in at
tempting to bring a halt to the
H-bomb tests, and has said if
elected President he would iniai
ate talks with other nations to
that end. He also has criticized
that end. He has also criticized the '
military draft as an inefficient
method of maintaining military
forces.
Eisenhower said “the man who
today dismisses our military draft
as ‘an incredible waste’ is a man
who, while I do not question his
sincerity, is speaking incredible
folly or from incredible ignorance
of war or the causes of war."
As for Nixon, Eisenhower said
Democrats have engaged in ‘‘a
foolish and futile attempt to be
little this great American.” He
praised Nixon's “devotion to his
duties.”
Nixon, speaking in Baltimore
Friday night, said Stevenson “has
refused to permit the press to ex
amine him on the draft, the H
bomb and other questionable is
sues he has raised during this
campaign . , .
“If a man’s views are so Un
sound and unsure that he is un
able to defend and explain them
in a free American press confer
ence, he raises a grave question
as to whether he is capable of
being president . . .” Nixon said.
Eisenhower Didn’t ‘Tell Us the Truth
About Suez Crisis, Says Stevenson
By the Associated Press •
In Cincinnati Friday, Steven
delivered hard-hitting campaign
talks which dwelt mainly on for
eign policy, which he called
about the most serious failure of
the Republican Administration.” .
The Democratic presidential
nominee said Eisenhower did not
“'tell us the truth” about the Suez
crisis. He said Secretary of State
Dulles is a "master of reverse
English” who has a “habit of de
scribing every defeat as a victory
and every setback as a triumph.”
Recalling Eisenhower’s recent
television comment that there was
"good news” about the Suez Canal
negotiations, Stevenson asked:
“Why hasn’t he told us frankly
that what has happened in the
past few months is that the Com
munist rulers of Soviet Russia
have accomplished a Russian am
bition that the Czars never ac
complished? Russian power and
influence have moved into the
Middle East . . .”
Repeating his charge that the
adminstration has sought to
sweep such issues as H-bomb con
trol “under the rug,” Stevenson
said:
‘We need to be called to labor,
not lulled with rosy and mislead
ing assurance that all is well.
Leadership which fails in this is
leadership to disaster.”
Sen. Estes Kefauver said in
Salt Lake City that Democrats are
“rapidly closing the gap” between
Stevenson and Eisenhower. In a
later speech he accused Eisen
hower of a “tragic failure” to
continue a western power devel
opment program he said was in
itiated by the Democrats.
Asked to survey Democratic
prospects in the west, Kefauver
said he was “confident” of Wash
ington, felt it was “nip and tuck”
in California, that Democrats
were “ahead” in Nevada, making
“rapid gains” in Utah, “moving
up” in Oregon, and that Montana
was “in our column.” Eisenhower
carried all the far western states
in 1952.
