Fv JOHN GUNTHER
Written for NEA Service
I have had the pleasure recently
of geod talks with Kefauver, Ste
vanspon, Harriman, and Kerr,
zmong the leading Democratic as
p;rants, and at one time or other
1 have met Truman, Barkley, Vin
£o3, Rayburn, Humphrey, and Mc-
Mzhon. What do they add up to?
Cuppose we take Stevenson first
even though Kefauver is far in the
lcad so far as delegates are con
carned, because Stevenson’s atti_
tude is not finally clarified, and
vhatever he does will probably,
dacide the fate of all the others.
The lowdown on Adlai Ewing
Stevenson is something that makeg
him a rare bird indeed among
politicians—he actually, truly does
no! want to run.
I met him in Chicago, listened
to him speak at a meeting, and
then had a drink with him while
he ate half a grapefruit (he
doesn’t drink after dinner, and
rot much before). The next
morning we flew to Springfield in
his gubernatorial plane, had
lunch, and la‘ter‘tal‘ked again.
Incidentally, I learned that you
pronounce his first name “Adly,”
to rhyme with “Bradley.”
The determining reason why
he is-reluctant is that he feels
that it is his imperative, un
avoidable duty to run for gov
ernor of Illinois again, win if
possible, and put the affairs of that
state, so long ill-governed, on a
permanently sound foundation.
It is often said, additionally,
that he would not like to run
against Eisenhower because they
are such good friends. Actually,
the governor has only met Eisen
hower twice, and on neither occa
sion did they have much chance
to talk.
It Stevenson does decide to
run, he will make up his mind
without regard to the name of his
epponent. He does not want to
be maneuvered into the position
of being just a “fair_weather”
candidate, willing to run if the
race is probably going to be easy
(as many Democrats believe it
would be against Taft), but not
willing if it looks hard.
a 0 * =
Onerous and agitated pressure
is being exerted to make Steven
son declare. It is difficult in the
exireme for any public man to
say a simple “I won’t to the
presidency. Eisenhower faced
this same dilemma in 1947-48.
There is only one man who
can unhook Stevenson, and that
is Stevenson himself. So long as
he does not finally, explicitly,
unequivocally announce that he
will refuse to be a candidate even
if drafted by the convention,
there is bound to be more and
more talk about drafting him.
Stevenson’s - advantages are
many. He is, like Roosevelt, a
patrician who has become a man
of the people. He has, almost
alone among candidates, what
every president needs above all
—a combination of both admin
istrative, and political experience.
He has been an admirable gov,_
ernor, and he really believes in
public service. He is liberal on
labor, Negroes, and foreign pol
icy. Yet he is enough of a
middle_of-the-roader to capture
both wings of the party geo
graphically, and he would be a
tough-minded, wily and inde
fatigable campaigneg.
Kefauver? He is a remarkably
{riendly man, but some people

appear to dislike or discount him.
He has an excellent liberal rec
ord in Congress quite aside from
the crime investigation, but many
people think of him as a light
weight, almost as a vaudeville
figure.
Sen. Estes Kefauver, is not a
vaudeville figure. He is a candi_
date in deadly earnest, whose
vaudeville tricks pay off.
Merits to Kefauver as a candi
date: (1) He has proved himself
to be an extremely good vote
getter, and his momentum stead
ily increases. (2) Americans like
crime-busters. Dewey got his
start this way. (3) His personal
ity is refreshing, his face com
paratively new, and his rustic
simplicity beguiling (4) He had
the courage to announce his candi_
dacy before Truman withdrew
from the race. (5) Labor likes
him better than any candidate
except Stevenson, and he will get
powerful support among Negroes.
Demerits: (1) The big city ma
chines detest him, and will do
their best to stop him. This is
partly because he is a lone wolf,
an irregular, a non-conformist,
and party because the crime in
vestigation upset the Democratic
applecart in a state like illinois.
(2) Truman and the central
hierarchy probably will oppose
him at the convention. (3) So
will most reactionaries in the
South.
Kefauver said to me: “They
told us we'd get trampled to
death in New Hampshire. But
look what happened. We had
very strong advice not to go into
Nebraska. Look what happened.
Where are the other fellows go
ing to get more delegates, if I
have them!”
Averell Harriman? There are
those who think — to modify an
old joke from Harold Ickes—that
Harriman is a bare-foot boy from
the polo fields, nothing more.
They are wrong. Actually the
transition whereby a man of
enormous inherited wealth can
become a strong partisan of the
left is not at all rare in Amer_
ican politics, and can be perfect
ly genuine. :
Harriman is not to be dismissed
on account of his bacground,
thougf-l it will probably be a handi
cap. In actual fact, from the point
of view of both national and in
ternational affairs, he has more
concrete administrative exper
ience than any other candidate.
Harriman, who has a livley and
attractive character, is not going
to have an easy time at the con
vention, though he takes his

who has said aggressively, “I
can beat Ike.” But the machine
bosses are, as I heard it put, “us
ing him, mot supporting him.”
The spark that could cause a
landslide simply is not there.
He has the powerful New
York delegation, but this is like
ly to melt away; in fact he was
given this on a kind of tempor
ary basis to keep other candi
dates from raiding into it until
convention time. Nevertheless
bizarre things can happen at con
ventions, and Harriman should
not be althogether dismissed. One
crack is, “He will show up there
in Rossevelt’s cape.”
The lowdown cn Sen. Richard
B. Russell of Georgia is that he
cannot possibly be president, be_
cause the North will not accept
him, and he has no illusions what
ever about winning. It may sur
prise those who dislike him be
cause he is coldly, implacably re
actionary on the Negro problem
to know that, from the point of
view of sheer ability, he is quite
possibly the best Democrat in the
race.
Highly respected by his col
legues, inexhaustibly competent,
with an intelligent record in for_

his work, Russell hag great ad-

He announced his candidacy for
two reasons. First, he thought at
the time that Truman would run,
and he wanted to get into the
field against him. Then, when Tru
man quit, he was stranded. Sec
ond, paradoxically, ne wanted to
create a situation that would save
' the party from being split, and
prevent another Dixiecrat revolt.
By funneling votes to himself
and at the same time remaining
within the party, Russell was
playing for a united front against
the Repubklicans in November. He
will be a fomidable power at the
convention, though he cannot win.

Police said Friday a man who st

He was arrested by Detective

from the scene of another incen

Police said the suspect identi

“I've been setting fires for

“I like the excitement.”

Weldon watched the crowd that

Weldon telephoned police head
quarters, which notified Chief Fire
