WASHINGTON - (M) - Backer
of Gov. Adlai Stevenson choruse
"lie" yesterday in response to th
speech Monday in which Sen
Joseph McCarthy - accused th
Democratic presidential nomine
of giving "aid to Communis
causes."
They used a wide choice o
words-"big lie," "storm troope
mentality," "dishonest," "slan
der," "character assassination
and the like-but the basic mean.
ing never varied.
ON THE OTHER side of th
fence Sen. Everett Dirksen, Repub
lican from Stevenson's home stat
* of Illinois, said Americans shouk4
"carefully ponder the facts tole
about Adlai Stevenson and his left
wing advisers" in the McCarthy
speech.
"We in Illinois, being famil-
iar with these facts, and with
other weaknesses of Gov. Stev-
enson's record as governor of
Illinois, have been trying to get
them before the public for some
time," Dirksen said in a state-
ment through his office here.
Dirksen and Americans for Dem-
ocratic Action, one of McCarthy'k
primary targets in his attack or
Stevenson associates, disagreed a
to who benefited from the fac
that the Wisconsin Republican
had a huge nation-wide televisior
audience for his speech, made at a
privately-financed dinner in Chi-
cago.
ADA took this view in a state-
ment:
"We are glad McCarthy made
his speech on a nation-wide broad-
cast last night, as it afforded the
whole American public an oppor-
tunity to see the 'big lie' technique
in operation. The storm trooper
mentality, which advocates the use
of the club to beat 'Americanism
into those who disagree with the
Wisconsin senator, was blatantly
evident in the dishonest and cow-
ardly use of fractional fact and in-
nuendo which characterized his
high and wild attack on Gov
x Stevenson."

Conscientious
Objection
Discussed
The position of the conscientious
objector was discussed last night
in a meeting of the Fellowship of
Reconciliation in the Methodist
Church.
According to Albert G. Watson,
Regional director of the FOR, the
current selective service laws give
two options to the conscientious
objector. He can either request a
1AO rating as a non-combattent
or a 1-0 rating which consists of
an indefinite deferral. A third
step which many objectors have
taken is not to register.
The new selective service plan
of alternate work for those wish-
ing deferments was also discussed
along with another phase of the
FOR's program. This phase con-
sists of using non-violent methods
of fighting racial intolerance.

Co lilege Poll
Still Favors
Eisenhower
By CRAWFORD YOUNG
Daily Managing Editor
The college student still likes
Ike.
This was the conclusion drawn
from a poll of student opinion
conducted by the Associated Col-
legiate Press. After probably a
record flood of editorials, adver-
tisements, petitions and counter-
petitions which has swamped the
nation's campuses, the tide of
sentiment runs strongly in favor
of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower.
The statistical breakdown fol-
lows:
Eisenhower ......57 per cent
Stevenson .........33percent
Undecided .......... 9per cent
Other .............. 1percent
EISENHOWER'S popularity
comes in spite of the fact that
there are almost asemany who
style themselves Democrats as
there are Republicans in circula-
tion on the campuses. Thirty-two
per cent of those polled claim to
be Democrats, 36 per cent Repub-
licans, with 30 percent assuming
the shadowy guise of the inde-
pendent voter .
Parental voting patterns re-
main a strong factor in deter-
mining the political allegiance
of the student. Fifty-six per
cent confessed that they agreed
with their parents in the choice
of candidates. Nineteen per cent
have asserted their political
emancipation by disagreeing,
while a neutral 23 per cent are
listed as unsure.
Michigan student opinion in
September was quite in line with
the national iesults-a Daily poll
at registration showed 64 per cent
favoring Eisenhower, with 33 per
cent backing Stevenson.
However, college editors were at
complete variance with the overall
results. Here, 57 per cent wanted
Stevenson as President, 41 per
cent supported Eisenhower, with
a meager two percent undecided.
And the Stevenson backers
seemed much more vocal in their
support. At latest count, 14 col-
lege papers had come out editor-
ially for Stevenson, with only two
for the General.

competition.
The theory of competition is
'contrary to the real nature of
man and animals which actual-
ly exemplifies the spirit of co-
operation, he said.
Prof. Montagu believes that man
is born good with certain motiva-
tions which must be cultivated by
love to ensure normal develop-
ment.
HE 'CITED the denial of love
during childhood as the reason
for crime and the lust for power.
If both man and animals are
treated kindly they will respond
with cooperation, he added.
"Hatred is only love that has
been frustrated," the anthropol-
ogist said. A person who has en-
countered cruelty will respond
with cruelty.
Changing the forms of institu-
tions will not accomplish the de-
sired peace, he stated. Only as
man changes his attitude from
one of competition to one of co-
operation will he become the indi-
vidual he was intended to be, he
concluded.
CLC Decides
On Lecture
Ban Actions
Running the gauntlet of current
civil rights questions the Civil
Liberties Committee took action
last night on University, local and
national questions.
On the campus level the com-
mittee decided to organize a pres-
sure group among the five politi-
cal clubs who put the lecture com-
mittee referendum on the Student
Legislature ballot last semester.
The group's purpose would be to
urge SL, the Regents, and campus
groups to act on the referendum.
CLC went on record as support-
ing the proposal that "the sole
criteria" for a speaker on campus
should be current recognition of
the group sponsoring him, by the
Student Affairs Committee and
Joint Judiciary.
On the question of scholarships,
CLC took the stand that the Uni-
versity should accept only those
grants f that are based on need
and academic ability.
In discussing the atomic spies,'
Julius and Anna Rosenberg, the
group decided that they could not
pass judgement on the conclusion
of their trial, but decided to send,
a letter to President Truman ask-,
ing that the death penalty be
changed to life imprisonment be-
cause "it has no precedent in ci-
vilian courts."
CLC also passed a motion com-
mending Mayor Brown for allow-I
ing the Progressives to hold their
recent rally in Ann Arbor's West)
Park, after the doors of the Ma-
sonic temple were closed to them.

THE CHICAGO weather bureat
said no important rain was ir
sight for any fire-plagued are
but that a 180-degree shift in the
wind might help stop the fire ir
its tracks in the Central states.
Forseveral days the fires have
been fanned by a southwest
wind. Forecasters said a cold
front spreading across the east-
ern half of the country will shift
the winds to the north and
northeast.
The fires threatened to curtail
or eliminate the hunting season in
some areas. Gov. Paul A. Dever of
Massachusetts issued a proclama-
tion closing the Massachusetts
woodlands and suspending hunt-
ing during the ban.

THE SITUATION was most ser-
ious in Arkansas, where numerous
fires raged out of control; in West
Virginia where 450 fires have
blackened 150,000 acres, and in
Mississippi, where an estimated
1,500 fires have burned out nearly
50,000 acres this month.
Fires of varying seriousness
also were reported in Kentucky,
Texas, Louisiana, Virginia, Wis-
consin, Indiana, Michigan, Min-
nesota, Ohio, Oklahoma, New
Hampshire, New York, and New
Jersey.
Meanwhile in Miami hurricane
"Fox" was pronounced dead by
the Weather Bureau yesterday.
The storm contained 165-mile
winds when it crossed Cuba last
Friday. It killed three and destioy-
ed hundreds of homes in Central
Cuba, mostly in the town of Ag-

SEN. BLAIR MOODY MAKES CAMPAIGN SPEECH IN EAST ANN ARBOR

MOODY HITS OPPOSITION:
Democrats Speak at Torchlit Rally
By DIANE DECKER
Nearly 200 people last night
wended their way down atorch-
lit road to the Mary D. Mitchell
School in East Ann Arbor to hear
Gov. G. Mennen Williams, Sen.
Blair Moody and a host of county
candidates on the Democratic
ticket.
Assembled in a somewhat in-
congruous atmosphere of school
children's Hallowe'en decorations
and campaign posters, the crowd
heard Sen. Moody denouncerthe
Republicans' opposition to the Mu-
tual Security program.
"What would Stalin give to be
able to set up an espionage sys-
tem to influence Congress to vote
to destroy an alliance against the
Kremlin?" Sen. Moody asked, cit-
ing the GOP cuts from Mutual
Security appropriations.
EAST ANN ARBOR was one of
the later stops in Sen. Moody's
Prison Rioters
To Negotiate,
Free Hostages
CHESTER, Ill.--(P)-Rebellious
prisoners at riot-torn Menard
State Priton last night agreed to
release three of their hostages and
meet with prison and state offi-
cials.
The agreement between 37 pris-
oners in the Psychiatric Division
and the prison officials were nego-
tiated by an unidentified press rep-
resentative. He said the inmates
agreed to release the three host-
ages prior to the conference some-
time tomorrow.
This was the first break in the
day-old riot, but some 300 inmates
still held seven other hostages be-
hind barricades thrown up within

across the courtyard from the
psychopaths' stronghold.

was cut short by the still later ap-
pearance of fellow campaigner
Gov. Williams.
The local appearance was one
of many grass-roots rallies which
the pair hit during the course
of the evening. Beginning at a
Chamber of Commerce dinner in
Chelsea, the candidates visited
Willow Village, the trailer camp
on US 23 and here, before wind-
ing up the tour at an open house
at Ypsilanti Democrat head-
quarters.
While the assembled crowd
waited to hear the State candi-
dates, seven county candidates
spoke briefly and circulated
through the group, passing out
literature and shaking hands.
AT PERIODICAL intervals, the
crowd broke into choruses of the
song introduced at the National
Convention last July, "Don't Let
'em Take it Away," and the piano
player cut loose with "The Ten-
nessee Waltz."
Sen. Moody stressed that the
major problem in 1952 is Com-
munism. "We are confronted
with a totalitarian power which
hopes to enslave us as it has en-
slaved others," he maintained.
"The basic issue is how we will

Auto Industr'y
To Receive
More Steel
WASHINGTON-(P)-The auto
industry was notified yesterday
that civilian goods manufacturers
will get an additional 1,480,000
tons of steel to boost their scant
allotmentsin first-quarter 1953.
The motor industry, which had
forecast shutdowns in February
unless more steel was granted, was
assured by the National Produc-
tion Authority NPA of an "equit-
able" share of the new metal.
More steel may be forthcoming
later, NPA Administrator R. A.
McDonald told the passenger car
industry committee. He promised
fortnightly checks on prospective
steel supplies.
Some industry representatives,
still dissatisfied, told McDonald
they expected the total of addition-
al steel available for civilian use
would run to two or three million
tons instead of 1,480,000.
NPA's original allocation, an-
nounced last week, would have
provided metal for only 630,000
passenger cars in January, Febru-
ary and March, as compared with

NEW YORK-Gov. Adlai E.

"have everything on their side-

nominee, speaking to a cheering
audience of approximately 20,000

Tuesday's presidential election.
ATTACKING his Republican op-
ponents, the Illinois governor de-
cared that in advance of the elec-
tion the Republicans are celebrat-

win "the last one."
"And the big one is the last
one, as all generals should
know," he said in a vigorous jab
at his GOP opponent, Gen
Dwight D. Eisenhower.

what he called "the old and weary
leadership."
"The people turned to a man
whose name became a symbol of
high purpose," Stevenson said,
"but history has recorded that
this light was snuffed out in the
sordid triumph of expediency."
He said that the high hopes of
the American people were destroy-
ed in the chain reaction of com-
promise when Eisenhower met
with Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio
and, in the words of the Illinois
governor, adopted the principles
which Taft has advocated.

nominee kept on repeating that
he intends to go to Korea.
With the election only a week
away, Eisenhower reverted to the
theme with which he opened it on
Sept. 2 in the deep South, the
theme of "mess in Washington."
"Part of that mess, my friends,
has been subversion, disloyalty in
government. Part of it has been
waste and extravagance in the ex-

of it has been fumbling and stumb-
