Receive
Washington XU.R) Sen. John
J. Sparkman, Democratic vice
presidential nominee, gave cau
tious backing Saturday to the
proposal for televised Eisenhower-Stevenson
debates.
Sparkman told reporters the
TV debates would be "a good
thing" provided the people
"want them" and such an under
taking could be arranged.
Plan Put lo Stevenson
The proposal, paralleling the
historic Lincoln-Douglas debates
of 94 years ago, will be .taken up
with Stevenson at Springfield,
111., this week-end in a series of
campaign strategy huddles which
Sparkman, Democratic National
Chairman Stephen A. Mitchell
and other party leaders will at
tend. ,
Mitchell told a news confer
ence Friday that he regarded the
idea of direct debates, first ad
vanced by Sen. Blair Moody of
Michigan, as "very interesting,"
and one which he would "cer-

ing of Democrats
tainly" discuss with Stevenson.
Mitchell added that he thought
both Stevenson and Sparkman
would come off very well in
face-to-face debates with Eisen
hower and Sen. Richard M. Nix
on, the GOP vice presidential
candidate.
Lincoln-Douglas Debates
By an odd twist of history, it
was Stevenson's great grandfa
ther, Jesse Fell, who arranged
the Lincoln-Douglas debates dur
ing the 1858 campaign between
the two men for the Illinois
Senate seat. Lincoln lost the
Senate race to Douglas, but
through the debates achieved a
national prominence which con
tributed greatly to his later suc
cesful bid for the presidency.
Sparkman, who said he per
sonally would welcome partici
pation in the TV debates, de
clared that:
"The people certainly are en
titled to full and free discussion
of all the issues by the candi
dates. The most efficient way of
getting that kind of discussion
should prevail and everybody
should cooperate in bringing
this about.
"If the people want it done by
direct debate it seems to me that
it would be a good thing."
Expressed Interest
Sen. Earle C. .Clements of
Legality of Religious
Freedom Law Doubted
Seville, Spain (U.R) Pedro
Cardinal Segura, Archbishop of
Seville, said in a pastoral letter
made public Saturday, he doubts
the legality of the law guaran
teeing religious freedom in
Spain.
The Archbishop's letter was
directed against Article Six of
the Spanish Bill of Rights. This
provides that no one will be
"molested" for his religious be
liefs and private practice of his
religion, although public cere
monies are banned to all but
Roman Catholics the state re
ligion of Spain.
Cardinal Segura said the 1945
Bill of Rights contradicts the
Concordat of 1851 and the Span
ish Constitution of 1876.

Debates
Kentucky', chairman of the Sen

and tentative approval of the
proposal. Clements pointed out
that there might, be practical
difficulties in scheduling face-to-face
meetings between the can
didates, but that with modern
television facilities debates might
be arranged emanating from two
different points.
An offer of free television or
radio facilities for the direct de
bates was made Friday night by
the Nationol Broadcasting Co.
NBC President Joseph H. Mc
Connell said he his sent tele
grams to both presidential candi
dates saying that the company's
facilities would be available "for
such a debate if . you decide to
follow such a course."
