5 "Ike" still has the passionate
;eure. jnis one can read on
as Ihey chant and sing while
the reaction of such of the crowd outside as we saw evidences
.a generous good will most political leaders never receive from
Jtlie people generally.
5 The president looks as healthy as any man of his age can
jever hope to look. He is robust, quick of movement, showing
not a sign of his illness, which significantly becomes less and
floss an issue as millions sec him in person and on the T-V.
gHe certainly looks good for another four years, though he has
'warned that no one can know a thing about his life tenure,
regardless of his age.
;t The president now acts as if he enjoys being a politician.
..Four years ago and for some time thereafter he gave one the
feeling that he disliked it. Ho has been won over to his
IJnewer calling, and of course his personality is made to order
for successful public contacts.
j The president looks more stern than he used to as lie talks
jabout the issues that divide him and his opposition. He is
.sore at Candidate Stevenson and his backers who have slurred
Jliim as incapable of doing his job.
S However the president's only mention of his opponent, and
gthe only one wo recall by name in the campaign came at
jthe close of his afternoon talk to the party workers. He told
j;i story about a Jtcpublican worker meeting a Democrat who
insisted ho was going to vote for Stevenson he used the
Jname again. Why? "Because I voted for him four years ago
Jand everything has been wonderful since." A good laugh
j to send his crowd home in a good humor and a mood to plug
,iarti for "Ike."
5 The president appears cohfident of his re-election and talks
Jabout the next four years as if he knew where he is going to
rbe then. But he "runs scared." He intends to leave no stone
junturned between now and November 6 to get those votes, for
jnimseii ana a inenuiy congress. Tins is ol course as it should
Sbe. The president was not quick to recognize" that he must
necessarily be the leader of his party as well as the head of
pine government. But he knows
voys it.
5 Lamina l ed Woods Comeback
J That the increased prices of

-Street Journal which confirms its statement with a series
lot interviews with a score of large lumber manufacturers, who

Laminated wood is made by

.two incnes in thickness. Unlike
Jin sheets or panels, laminated wood for structural use is built
up Into large, straight beams or trusses. Or, through (he use
jot forms, it can be shaped Into arches or curved members. It
fhas been produced for 30 years, but made its first big leap
inlo architects working plans during World War II when steel
Jshorlages caused its use in assembly plants, airplane and
Jblimp hangars, drill-halls, warehouses and shipyards.
J Laminated wood is 10 percent cheaper than steel or rein
'forced concrete on some jobs. It's more attractive, besides
cheapness is its architectural effect. The natural lustet of the
Swood, plus the fact that it can be made as strong as steel,
Sniakcs it a natural for schools and churches. And last year
Jsomo $700 million were spent on churches and over a billion

H, Virtually all newspapers welcome the "Idlers to the edilor"

jThc besetting sin of these writers, as all editors learn, is that
"so many of them want to discuss several subjects at once and
to make their communications too long. Tims readership suf

t(cul down or turn down long winded ones.

Ike's the Boss
Shown It Plenty of Times
fly RAY
WASHINGTON, October 19-The
Stevenson accusation which
wounds President Eisenhower
deeply and personally is the sug
gestion that Ike is not the real
boss of his official household in
the aggressive and sometimes ar
rogant manner of Roosevelt and
Truman. Ike resents the opposi
tion's effort to depict him as
"weak and indecisive."
Indeed, were it not that it would
provoke hard feelings within the
cabinet and distress certain of its
members, Ike could reveal many
occasions when he quietly over
ruled many of his advisers, in
cluding such eminent associates as
Secretary John Foster Dulles ant?

friend and a frequent presidential

When demands arose that Pat-

In Ihe dispute over imposing
credit restrictions in a re-election

Reserve against Secretary Humph

economic effects. Ike also dis
pleased Ihe great banking, finan

so Stevenson insists, he favors

Adlai Hops From One Issue to
Another; Ike Sticks to a Fev
By JAMKS MAUI.OW
Assnchil.'d Press News Analyst
WASHINGTON l.P President
Kisenhower and Adlai Stevenson
have hnil time enough with the
election only 18 days away to
show what they think the cam
paign issues are.
Kisenhower has concentrated on
domestic nffnirs. not the foreign
field. Although he devoted all of
his Sent, lit opening speech to for
eign problems.
Stevenson has divided himself
mote evenly between affairs at
home and abroad. Vet. judging
from the way he picks im an is
sue, drops it, and comes back to
it, he looks like a man having
trouble deciding what to play up
most .
With one exception Kisenhower
has brought the word "peace"
into eery speech he has made
as- a reminder that the Korean
War. which he inherited, has end
ed and that country has peace.
He aNo sometimes mentions
Korea directly and most of the
tunc, in one way or another, com
bines "peace" with "prosperity
and progress."
In shoit, he is saying: "Polks,
everything is going well. Every
thing is under control. Things will
get better too. Since you never
had it so good, why rock the
boat?"
Stevenson's central them Is just
the opposite: "Things are not as
good as the Kepuhhrnns make
them appear. All kinds of things
need doing, but the Republicans
wont do them. They re not inter-
ested in even. body, only rich poo-J
pie
Stevenson has painted the Re
publicans as a dt'-nothing party
for anyone but the wealthy. And
he has tried to link Kisenhower

Ike-Nixon Ticket Shows Gain
Since 1952 in
By GEORGE GALLUP
(Director. American Instituu of Public Opinion)
(Editor's Note: Today'i report
on voter sentiment In the East Is
the first in a series on the presi
dential race by geographical re
gions, Sunday's report will deal
with candidate preference In the
Midwest.)
PRINCETON, N.J.-In the heav
ily populated Eastern seaboard
states, which gave President Kisen-i
hower his biyyest block of electoral
voles in 19."2. the Kisenhower
Nixon ticket is running substan
tially stronger loday than it did
four years ago.
A survey just completed by the
Institute shows that in the East as
a whole, among voters who have
made up their minds, the GOP
ticket today polls 60 per cent to 40
per cent lor the Demoralic ticket.
In the 1952 presidential election,
Ihe Republican ticket received 55.2
per cent of the popular vote In this
area
Today's survey figures would in
dicate a shift nearly 5 percentage
points in the popular vote in the
l-.asl in favor of the GOP ticket as
compared with the 1!I52 election.
Ihe 12 states which form the in
dustrial Kast are: New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware,
Maryland, West Virginia, Maine,
Vermont, New Hampshire, Massa
chusetts, Connecticut and Rhode
Island.
To gauge Ihe situation today, in
terviewers for the Institute ques
tioned a carefully chosen cross
section of voters in the 12-state
area as follows:
"If the presidential election were
being held loday, which candidates
would you vote for

The strategy in this is clear
enough: a lot of people who didn't
like the Republican party might
still vote for Kisenhower person
ally. Rut they might not if they
began to think of Kisenhower and
the COP as the same.
The proof of what Kisenhower
and Stevenson think the campaign
issues are s shown by what they
talk of in their .speeches.
But if you just listened to them
say what they thought the issues
were you might think thev were
a collide of confused candidates
rummaging in a bagful of ideas,
looking for something to sny
Although peace is o his central
theme. Kisenhower has said
"There is one thing that is not an
issue In this campaign: the long
ing or ail Americans for peace,
prosperity and progress."
Another time he aid he thinks
the real issue is: "How do we
manage America's internal af-
fairs?" At another lime he said

is this: What nrinrinlea . . . rwli- !r h " Maryland. Delaware,
cirs nnd nrocrnms ran best heln

Stevenson, when talking of is
sues, has said the' vice presidency
is one of the "mast basic" issues.
Another time he said he considers
the "question of war nnd peace
the overriding Issue in any
presidential campaign." Still an
other time he said "peace is not
an issue in this election, but how
bet to deter aggression."
lie said. "The central issue in
(his campaign may well be which
party means what it says " And
he said "So far as the Demo-
emtio party is concerned this is
the ninjor issue . . . We are dedi
cated lo our vision of the new
America."
And he said "whether America
wants to it ay on dead center" Is
i central lssu.

If it is assumed that the 9 per
cent who are undecided as of now
either will not vote, or, if they do,
will vote in about the same way
as the "decides," the above fig
ures become:
Kisenhower - Nixon 60'
Stevenson - Kefnuver 40
The figures in today's survey
apply to popular votes only, not to
electoral votes, r urtnermore, they
apply to the Eastern section as a
whole, not to any individual states
within the section.
An individual designed cross-
section for each state would be re
quired tu produce state-by-state
figures.
In the 1952 election, Eisenhower
carried all but one of the IX statei
in the region. Weit Virginia was
the only state to wind np In the
Stevenson column.
Here is the percentage of the
popular vote in 1952 for each state
in the hast:
1952 Election
-Rep. Dem.
New York 56.0 44.0
New Jersey 57.5 42.5
Pennsylvania 53.0 47.0

West Virginia 48.1 51.9
Maine 66.2 33.8
Vermont 71.7 28.3
New Hampshire 60.9 39.1
Massachusetts 54.4 45.6
Connectciut 55.9 44.1
Rhode Island 50.9 49.1
The importance of this section in
the coming election can be seen
oin the tact that together the 12
states respresent a total of 153 elec
toral votes. President Kisenhower
received 145 electoral votes from
this region in 19.V2.
Two of the nation s largest
stales, New York with 45 and
Pennsylvania with 32 . electoral
votes, are particularly crucial.
Mnssnrhnsrtts and New Jersey
enrh have 16 electoral voles.
The electoral vote of the remain
ing stales are: Maryland 9, Con
necticut 8. West Virginia 8, Maine
i 5, New Hnmpshlre 4. Rhode Island
4. and Vermont and Delaware 3
each.
Analysis of the vole In the Kast
over the last 20 years shows the
position of the two parties to he

unusual was the appointment of a
