A frequent canard about Steven­
son’s education is that he flunked
out of Harvard Law School. What
really happened was more compli­
cated. After his last year at Prince­
ton, he and a classmate named
Ralph Goodwin drove in the lat­
ter’s Jordan roadster to spend the
summer on a ranch in Wyoming.
Ranch life proved much to their
liking Stevenson and Goodwin de­
cided to stay on in the West, began
looking at property and presently
found some they thought would
suit them. When Stevenson wrote
to tell his father of the new turn
his career had taken, Lewis Ste­
venson failed to cooperate He re­
plied that if Stevenscn did not
report back on time to attend Har­
vard Law School, someone would
come to fetch him.
At Harvard Law School, Steven­
son got passing marks but, unlike
the later generation of embryo
New Dealers who sat mesmerized
by the pedagogic wizardry of the
great Felix Frankfurter, he never
met Frankfurter and never put his
heart in it.
Stevenson did take a couple of
years vacation from law school
and spent them on the family news­
paper, the Bloomington, Illinois,
Pantagraph, in various editorial ca­
pacities. Then he decided to finish
up his law course and, having i all-
again. He was told to come back
the next morning This continued
for four weeks during which Ste­
venson passed his afternoons in
less monotonous fashion He lived
in a house run by two middle aged
Quaker ladies which was also a
favorite meeting place for mem­
bers of the correspondents’ colony
Stevenson roamed abcut town with
them and called on surviving rela­
tives qf some White Russian emi­
gres whom he had known in Chi­
cago.
His appointment with Chicherin
was never forthcoming. After a
month of daily calls at the Foreign
Office, he left without it but with
a twenty-five year start on many
of his later colleagues in the diplo­
matic world, insofar as intimate,
first-hand knowledge of Soviet Rus­
sia was concerned.
When Stevenson returned to Chi­
cago in 1927, he joined the city's
oldest law firm. Cutting, Moore
and Sidley. Under the pressure of
new circumstances, his conscience,
always reasonably clear, now be
gan to shine like a mirror. He
worked a sixty hour, forty-dollar
week, and his personality expand
cd, prompting him to take a lively
part in the lively social doings of
the era. Ellen Borden was one of
the most eminently marriageable,
as well as one of the most attrac-
en a year behind his classmates
who had already graduated from
Harvard, he entered the law school
at Northwestern university and
took his degree there in 1926. His
cousin, Loring Merwin, still runs
the Pantagraph along independent
Republican lines. Stevenson still
owns roughly twenty-five percent
of the company but resigned as a
director and vice-president after
being elected Governor.
Expanding His Horizon
After completing his formal
schooling, Stevenson decided to
have a last look at Europe before
settling down to practice law in
Chicago. Starting with Switzer­
land, he covered most of the beat­
en tracks from Scandinavia to the
toe of Italy. He wanted to go some­
where new, and hit on Russia. In
order to effect an entry, Stevenson
got Hearst INS and Pantagraph cre­
dentials as a foreign correspondent.
Having arrived in Moscow, where
the first thing he noticed were
homeless children fighting to lick
the cobblestones where someone
had spilled some jam, Stevenson
picsented himself at the Foreign
Office and explained that he
wished to interview Finance Min
ister Chicherin on the subject of
the then highly controversial New
Economic Policy He was told to
come back the next morning. The
next morning he presented himself
five young ladies on the Chicago
social scene. Her wedding to Ste­
venson in December 1928 was one
of the top events of that Chicago
season.
Divorce
The causes of the Stevensons’
divorce in 1949, while somewhat
puzzling, appear to derive chiefly
from incompatibility due to in­
creasingly divergent interests. Mrs.
Stevenson's tastes lie in the world
of art and literature. No other pen
sons, and no scandal whatsoever,
affected the legal proceedings. Ste­
venson, who opposes divorce gen­
erally, was shocked and saddened
but not surprised. The divorce, ac­
companied by a substantial settle­
ment, was handled without rancor
or undue publicity. It bad been
preceded by twenty years of ap­
parently happy marriage.
One of Stevenson’s father's close
friends had been George Peek
who, in 1933, was called to Wash
ington to organize the Agricultural
Adjustment Administration. Adlai
Stevenson, like millions of other
Americans, had been deeply stirred
by Franklin Roosevelt's inaugural
address in 1933. Knowing the De­
pression better than most people,
he wanted to do something to help
cure it if he could. When Peek
asked him to come to Washington
to render legal aid to the rapidly
expandin*- AAA, Stevenson re­
sponded promptly.
