Political
Scene
(Continued from page four)
is basically a better man at the
use of words, as far as the trans
mission of thoughts is concerned.
Where he is lacking, Republicans
say, is in his ability to reach the
people emotionally.
For when General Ike address
es a crowd at a whistle stop, he
is applauded. He talks.to .the j>eo|
pie on their own terms;yand-;ih
common, everyday. language! ';'
One editor, a Democrat, said
the comparison of Stevenson's
speeches to Eisenhower's was r
like the comparison between'
one of Emerson's essays and a
bubble-gum advertisement. One
might' add here—yes. but more
people read bubble-gum adver
tisements.
The point, of course, which the
Stevenson supporters are trying
to put across is that their man is
more literate, more self-depend
ent, and generally more capable
than Eisenhower. There is little
doubt that Stevenson has more
appeal to the intelligentsia, but
again the point—don’t a greater
number of people read bubble
gum advertisements?
Governor Stevenson has said
that he sincerely believes in his
type of campaign. He believes that
the American people will event
ually—maybe not this year, but
in the near future—come to rea
lize that intelligence is an impor
tant criteria for selecting presi
dents. For this reason Stevenson
maintains that he will continue
his appeal to the minds of the
people.
* The Republicans have little di
rect response for this—who would
expect them to say they didn’t
believe in intelligence—but they
do point out that their man is
capable of leadership and has
ability to select other men who
will do the thinking in certain
fields. And so the GOP campaign
continues one of emotional ap
peal.

A technicolor western, "Mon

Missßarbara Werts, Belle Hop Queen at a true queen's
counter . . . the cosmetic counter at McLANAHAN'S

A truly amazing counter ... it extends for yards
and yards and contains every cosmetic, every per
fume, every beauty aid that the largest depart

is all the time . . . and it's the result of just the
right make-up, right perfume applied in an ex

You, .too, are a queen and you'll look even-more
