C-) CO o O o o o o o. o Stevenson Hopes To Be Century's First President After Having Lost Editor'! not: This u the see end In a series of iour articles dealing with the presidential candidates in the Nov. 6 gen eral election. O By UNITED PRESS Adlai Ewing Stevenson hopes to become the first candidate in the 20th century to roach the White House after losing a presi dential race. The last to accomplish this feat was Grover Cleveland, a Demo crat, in 1892. Cleveland's gin ning mate was Adlai Ewing Stevenson, grandfather of thO present candidate. O Stevenson, the former Illinois governor who lost to President Eisenhower in 1952. has saw! he suffered a "bad case of heredi-f tary politics." ilis great-grandfather, Jesse W. Fell.Mtfay a staunch Republican and a close adviser and friend of Abraham Lincoln. Stevenson was a reluctant candidate in 1952, being draf'4 to head the tir-ket. O His first campaign against Mr. Eisenhower was marked by the witticisms that became his hall mark and by the literacy of has speeches which appealed to the so-called intellectual or "egg- . head" vote. 0 In the balloting, he wa6;aten by Mr. Eisenhower by a popular vote of 33,926,252 to 27314,992 and by an electoral vote of 442 to 89. He carried Qonly nine states. Stevenson chjingcdiis tactics this year. No Wngef reltrctant, he announced his candidacy lasi November, vigorously i ou g h t and defeated Sen. EStes Kefauv er in most primaries and won ADLAI STEVENSON 'Hereditary Polittcs' the nomination on me first bal lot over the combined opposition of Gov. Averell Harrimancf ' New York and former President Truman. Instead of the amatrur "egg heads" who surrounded Sim in 1952. Stevenson's campaign this year was directed byOames A.

Chicago Lawyer & " The issues- that attracted most attention were his statements that it miht be possible to end thecdraft in the foreseeable fu ture and the United States should take the lead in ending H-bomb tests. Stevenson was -born in Los Angeles-, Calif., on Feb. 5, 1900. At the age of six, he moved with bis family to Bloomington, 111., the family home1 town. He at tended the Bloomington public schools, the Choate c School' in Connecticut, nd Princeton Uni versity, where he was graduated in i922. - '- J In the closing months of World War3 1, he served as an appren tice seaman in a Naval Reserve unit. - '-' J Stevenson subsequ e a 1 1 y at tended the Harvard and North western law schools and worked part-time as assistant managing editor of the family newspaper, the Bloomington Pantagraph. He still retains a cne-quarter inter est in the paper from which he derives a good part of his pri vate income. - Stevenson -passed the Illinois bar in 1926, and joined a Chi cago law firm.o .- o He, began his public career in the early days3 of President Roosevelt's New Deal when, in 193S, he became a special coun sel in the Agricultural Adjust m e n t Administration. But in 1935. he resumed his private law practice in Chicago. With the advent of World War II, Stevenson became counsel RE-ELECT9' eO .

Stevenson subsequently be came an assistant to Secretaries of State Edward R. Stettinius Jr., and James F. Byrnes. For the next three yearsr he represented this country in varioua capacities at the United Nations. Trips Abroad c When he returned to Chicago in 1947, the Democrats were hopeful that charges of scandal in the administration of thefl Re publican Gov. Dwight Green pre saged a Democratic sweep the following year. Stevenson wanted to run for the Senate but agreed to run for governor instead. He surprised his political mentors by waging a fighting campaign and defeatr ing Green by 572,000 votps, the largest plurality ever given to an Illinois governor. o Mr. Truman's decision in 1952 not to seek reelection brought Stevenson, then completing his four-year term as governor, into national prominence. He tried to quash the "Stevenson for president" boom by asserting that he was interested only in another term in the state house But in 1952 he was the first choice of Mr. Truman and most other organization leaders for the presidential nom i n a t i o n. Once nominated, he accepted. : His 1952 defeat by Mr. Eisen hower seemed to stimulate rath er than diminish Stevenson's in terest in politics. He took a trip around the world in 1953 and one to Africa in 1955. He was a frequent critic of the Adminis tration's handling of foreign affairs. Stevenson's drive for the 1956 nomination became almost un stoppable shortly before the con vention when Kefauver, his foe in ' the primaries, withdrew in his favor. At Chicago, all efforts to halt the Stevenson bandwagon failed and he won easily on the first ballot.-, " o Linn Jail Escapee ; Returned From LA. Albany, Ore. ;U.P.) James A.
