U.S. Should Not
Settle for 2nd Best
Leadership: Nixon
Vice President Nixon, well into
a 32-state barnstorming tour, told
a Sioux City, Iowa, audience Sat
urday in prepared remarks that
what he called “expedient politi
cians” should not be given con
trol of the country.
Without mentioning Adlai Ste
venson by name, Nixon said the
United States should “not settle
for the second-best leadership” or
“expedient politicians who offer
false hopes of ending the draft.”
Stevenson recently • expressed
th hope the military draft could
be ended “within the foreseeable
future.”
Nixon’s opposite number, Sen.
Estes Kefauver, said at Eugene,
Ore., he would gladly testify un
der subpoena about the Dixon
Yates case and asked Presidential
Assistant Sherman Adams to do
likewise.
In his latest thrust at what he
called the Dixon-Yates power con
tract “scandal,” the Democratic
vice presidential candidate also
threw in a reference to President
Eisenhower’s health.
He described Adams as Eisen
hower’s “right hand man” and
said that “his authority is enor
mous, especially during the Presi
dent’s absences for reasons of
health or otherwise.”

Stevenson Says America Is in
Midst of a ‘Farm Depression’
And Eisenhower Is Responsible
(By the Associated Press’ i
Adlai E. Stevenson, accusing
the Republicans of “brazen politi
cal expediency” in seeking votes,
said today America is in the midst
of a “farm depression" and that
President Eisenhower must shoul
der the responsibility.
“Today we are confronted not
with a breakdown of our agri
culture, but with a break
down of imagination and leader
ship,” the Democratic presiden
tial nominee said in firing sharp
criticism at both the President
and Agriculture Secretary Benson.
In an address prepared for the
National Field Days and Plowing
Contest at Newton, Iowa, 24 hours
after Eisenhower’s informal talk
there to a huge audience of arm
ers, Stevenson said:
Chickens Waiting
“There are some " chickens,
frankly, that have been waiting
a long time to come home to roost.
Here they come.”
During the 1952 campaign, Ste
venson said, Eisenhower made
pledges to the farmers in “careful,
calculated words meant to get
farm votes.” The pledges have not
been carried out, he added.
Stevenson said he is sure Eisen
hower’s motives are “good and
I-:
k-.
sincere,” and that he was not at
tacking them.
“I am even willing,” Stevenson
said, "to believe that he did not
fully understand what he was
saying to America’s farmer in
1952.
Benson a ‘Hired Man'
“But the President of the Unit
ed States must be a responsible
man. Secretary Benson, was his
hired man, and if a farm is mis
managed, the farmer is respon
sible, not the hired man.”
In Washington Friday, Steven
son talked labor matters with
George Meany, head of the giant
15-million-member AFL-CIO.
Meany told newsmen later that
Stevenson “looks very confident.”
The union has endorsed the Ste
venson-Estes Kefauver presiden
tial ticket.
Stevenson’s flight to Iowa start
ed an eight-day campaign# trip
thru 11 farm and western states.
