Liberal Candidate
, By JACK BELL
CHICAGO Uft Former Presi
dent Harry S. Truman -said Sun
day he intends to work in the next
few month! for the nomination by
the Democrats next year of a
"liberal and progressive" presi
dential candidate.
i Although he continued publicly to
maintain neutrality in the contest
"for the party's 1936 nomination,
V Truman said-perhaps significantly
i -that Adlai E. Stevenson "made
t the best New Deal speech I ever
' heard him make" before a Demo

Truman voiced these views in an

Such word as 'moderate- in the
Democratic Party". : s
. Are we moderateljr for the
farmer"? No, we are for him all
the way." ,
Harriuaa Agrees
Harriman, who kept open the
door of his own availability for the
1936 nomination, said he agrees
with Truman that the Democrats
can't win if they desert what both
called a "liberal" viewpoint
The New York governor made it
clear that be intends to make his
weight felt when the time for draft
ing of a Democratic platform
comes next summer.
"We in New York are going to
have something to say about the
direction the party fakes and the
issues it makes." he asserted.
Stevenson,' thus far the only an
nounced candidate for the nomina
tion he held in 1932, told a nationally-televised
party dinner here
Saturday night that he agrees
"moderation is the spirit of the
times."
Fields Listed
But he said it must not be con
fused with stagnation.
He went on to list farm, school,
health, social security, labor and
civil rights as fields in which the
government must seek progress.
This evidently pleased Truman,
who beamed alike on Stevenson.
Harriman and Sen. Estes Kefauver
of Tennessee, who may throw his
hat in the ring for the nomination
race next month. j
Truman, who previously had
said he favored Stevenson, ex
plained that he was maintaining
neutrality now in the intra-party
contest because he regards it as
his duty to do everything he can
to try to unify the Democrats.
He made it clear, however, that
he doesn't believe in unity ob
tained at the price of a comprom
ise which would steer the Demo
crats on a "conservative" course.
He was firm in the contention they
must bear a "liberal" label if they
are to win the presidency in 1936.
Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson of
Texas, the - Senate Democratic
leader, has been telling party visi
tors to his Texas ranch- he favors
adoption of a "moderate" plat
form next year-presumably one
that would not alienate Southern
conservatives and stir new civil
rights controversy.
During Year
WASHINGTON tfl Vice Presi
dent Nixon, in a statement on traf
fic safety, Sunday urged all citi
zens to "walk safely, and drive
safely 365 days of the' year." :
Nixon's statement was in con
nection with the start. of a three
week tally of traffic deaths through
out the United States for the Sec
ond annual S-D Day Safe Driv
ing Day observance Dec. 1.
"Thursday, Dec. 1, does not
mean that we try to drive' safely
that day alone," Nixon said. "It
should mean to all of us that we
will not only avoid accidents on
that day, but that we will try to
avoid them every day. ;
President Eisenhower's commit
tee for traffic safety, sponsoring
the campaign, said the purpose of
the 'three-week scorekeeping is to
measure the success of S-D Day
by comparing traffic fatalities for:
1. Thursday, Dec. 1, as against
the ' corresponding Thursday last
December, when 81 persons were
fatally injured.
2. The three-week period of
which S-D Day is the mid-point
Nov. 21 to Dec. 11 as against the
corresponding three weeks in 1954,
when the' toll was 2.144.
Rear Adm. H. B. Miller (U.S.N.,
Ret), director of the President's
committee, said S-D Day has two
basic purposes:
"The first is 24 hours without a
traffic accident. The second is sti
mulation of year-around public sup
port for proven, year-around. pro
grams of traffic safety. He said:
"A weekday Thursday was
chosen for S-D Day to emphasize
that lives are lost every day, and
not just on weekends and holi
days when the death and injury toll
is heaviest. Thus, the purpose is
to. emphasize to motorists and pe
destrians that safety is a necessity
every day, . not only during holi
day periods."

a millionaire genius named Harry
Ferguson is plotting' revolution. .
Ferguson is the former tractor
tycoon who pocketed 9V ' million
dollars from the Ford Motor Co.,
in a patent infringement action.
For two years now he's been
putting his mind and his millions
to what his aides have called "a
completely new system of motor
transport something that will
revolutionize transportation."
Until Sunday only rumors came
out of Ferguson's hideout trav

hicles flashing down west country
lanes at night, talk of a "people's
car," to be sold for peanuts, or of
a fantastic new engine that uses no
gears and less fuel.

Now, it seems, Ferguson is
ready to put his brainchild before
the world. A statement Sunday
from his mansion home announced
he has completed "the entire
range of Ferguson inventions" and
is ready to demonstrate them "in

NEW YORK (Jf) A prominent
New York City realtor shipped
j 1,081 turkeys Sunday via parcel
post to friends throughout the
world. They average 20 pounds
each. ' J '"
Charles F. Noves began the
custom back in 1924 with a-dozen
turkeys and has added to the list
each year.
"It's just a good will gesture,
nothing else," he explained.
Among those who will receive
the free turkeys this year .are
President, Eisenhower, former
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New
York, novelist Fannie Hurst

Fall Apprevaf
Signs Ire that the British gov
ernment is intensely interested.
Sir Miles Thomas, dynamic
chief of the state-owned British
Overseas Airways Corp, (BOAC)
has joined the Ferguson outfit as
a director. A BOAC announcement
said Thomas, an old hand in the
motoh industry, takes on his added
responsibilities with full approv
al of the transport ministry, i
Government interest apparently
springs from two sources:
1. Britain is jealous of the suc
cess of Germany s Volkswagen
car in lucrative export markets.
2. NATO authorities are report
ed eager to standardize their mil
itary' vehicles used by European
armies and Britain would like
standardization on a British model.
Best ef AH
Thomas, on joining Ferguson,
said he had seen Ferguson proto
types in competition with "the
best that Germany, Italy, Austra
lia, America or indeed any coun
try has produced."
He was reported "convinced that
the Ferguson car can outstrip
them all. not only on roads, but
in sand. mud. snow and ice."
Ferguson's aides likewise are
convinced they are on a winner.
Said J. M. Thompson, managing
director, of one of the Ferguson
organizations:
"It is not just a car which Mr.
Ferguson and his company . has
produced, but a new principle on
which all road vehicles, cars and
trucks, will be manufactured in
the future."
