DeVoto Praises Adlai Stevenson,
Plans to Visit Campus Tuesday
“Unquestionably the independent
voters have been heartened by hav
ing seen with such dramatic sud
denness the figure of Adlai Stev
enson in bold relief against so dark
a sky,” said Bernard DeVoto in
the April edition of Harper's Maga
zine.
DeVoto, who wrote the article in
the “Easy Chair” department of
the magazine, is coming to the
campus Tuesday to talk on “The
Professional Writer” at a 1 p.m.
assembly Tuesday in the Student
Union. He will also speak at a 4
p.m. coffee hour Tuesday in the
SU.
Best Man
Written before Stevenson de
clared that he would not run, the
article is chiefly about his qualifi
cations for president and why, in
DeVoto’s opinion, Stevenson is the
best man for the job.
Editor of “The Easy Chair” since
1935, DeVoto wrote in the April
edition that if Senator Taft of Ohio
receives the Republican nomina
tion, he cannot "openly campaign
on the most important issue the
election involves-, his own foreign
policy.” He went on to say that
Taft's foreign policy would defeat
i the Republicans for the sixth time.
Independent Vote Wins
DeVoto declared that it is the in
dependent vote that wins the elec
tions and that a large part of it
was prepared to abandon the j
Democratic party if General Eisen
hower was nominated. But now, he
Director, Student

i
Mary Elizabeth McDowell, ex- j
ecutive director of the Oregon
chapter of the YWCA, and Sharon j
Anderson, service committee chair
man and junior in music, are repre
senting the campus YWCA chap
ter at the 19th national YWCA
convention in Chicago, which
opens Thursday.
Leaders in religious, national and
world affairs will address conven
tion delegates on the theme, “Liv
ing Our Faith.” Carlos P. Romulo,
ambassador of the Philippine Is
lands and permanent delegate to
the United Nations, delivered the
keynote address Thursday night.
He discussed the effect the Chris
tian faith can make on the world
today.
More than 3000 women, including
550 Y-Teens, will attend the tri
annual convention of the legislative
body of the YWCA. Many foreign
countries will be represented at
the conclave.
Instructor Reads
Editorial Offerings
Newspaper editorials from big
cities and little towns and in both
daily and weekly newspapers, are
currently being read by Charles T.
Duncan, associate professor of
journalism.
Duncan is the judge for the best
editorial award for the 1952 Na
tional Better Newspaper Contest
conducted by the National Educa
tion association.
Seventy-eight entries, from
about every state in the union,
have been received so far, accord
ing to Duncan. Each entry contains
three editorials.
The final judging of the editor
ials, Duncan said, will be done with
the assistance of the rest of the
journalism school staff.
In the course of a year, the pas
sengers on British railways are
served with 3,000,000 cups of tea,
10,000,000 sandwiches and 3,500,
000 pieces of cake.
says, Eisenhower’s popularity
among the liberal independents is
declining and Eisenhower’s “weak
nesses are becoming apparent.”
He continued by saying that Eis
enhower would have a Congress
"controlled by men whom it is the
sole purpose of his candidacy to
defeat.” Men like Senators Bridges,
Capehart, McCarthy and Taft are
cited as examples by DeVoto.
“Drawn to Specifications”
DeVoto then turned to Governor
Adlai Stevenson of Illinois and
sai dthat the “Governor is drawn
to specifications ... of the liberal
independents.”
The Republican campaign will
be based on the issue of adminis
trative laxness, looseness and cor
ruption, DeVoto said, but this at
tack would be "futile” against
Stevenson. DeVoto bases his opin
ion on the fact that Stevenson
“cleaned-up” Illinois.
The author of several books; De
Voto has written “Mark Twain at
Work,” “The Literary Fallacy,”
“Mountain Time,” “The. Year of
Decision: 1846” and “Across the
Wide Missouri” since 1940. He is
also the author of numerous ar
ticles, stories and historical essays.
