By C. LYLE WILSON
Washington (U.R) Some real
istically minded Democrats are
looking for a presidential can
didate stronger than any now
in the field. They are looking
at Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson of
Illinois.
Stevenson has said he is not
a candidate, doesn't want to be
president, prefers not to live in
the White House. His admirers
here do not suggest the governor
was lying.
But they are convinced he
could not refuse h 1 s party's
presidential nomina tion and
would not absolutely forbid it
if the Democratic National con
vention next July developed a
whopping enthusiasm for him.
They probably are right about
that.
Stevenson is 52 years old. His
experience as governor of one
of the largest states is a solid
political asset.
There has been a whiff of
draft-Truman perfume in the air
ever since the President an
nounced he would not be a can
didate to succeed himself. He
has told party leaders since then
that he meant it tipped them
not to attempt a draft.
In an emergency the leaders
still might try a Tfliman draft.
But a Stevenson draft definitely
is the first order of business
under consideration by some of
the practical individuals who are
laying convention plans now.
They believe that maneuver
would avoid a convention dead
lock. No Reflection Cast
It is no reflection on so young
and comparatively inexperienced
a man as Sen. Estes Kcfauver
that some party stalwarts prefer
to look elsewhere. Five terms
in the House and a first term in
the Senate do not add up to the
most useful experience prelim
inary to severe executive respon
sibility. Kefauver is 48.
But Kefauver is the only Dem
ocrat candidate so far to make
any general impression on the
voters. - .- .

ed with the thought that he
would accept more enthusiastic
ally to run against Sen. Robert
A. Taft than against Gen. Dwight
D. Eisenhower. In any event, an
effort to draft hirn seems now
to be somewhere between a pos
sibility and a probability.
Jackson County
In Sixth Place
In MOD Campaign
Jackson county placed sixth
among Oregon's 36 counties in
raising of funds during the Janu
ary March of Dimes campaign,

previous records of the 13 years i
that the campaign for funds for
the battle against polio has been
conducted in the state. A total
of $26,039.39 was contributed in
Jackson county.
More volunteers took part in
the raising of more funds than
has been gathered in any previ
ous March of Dimes, Hedlund
said. He said also that the jump
between 1951 and 1952 contribu
tions was the greatest registered
for any year over the preceding
year.
