Politics In U.S.
Rep ublica ns Democrats
SYRACUSE, N. Y., <A>> _ Vice
President Nixon yesterday ac
cused Adlai Stevenson of “resort
ing’ to the flim-flam game of cov
ering up a weakness by attacking
the strength of his opponent.”
In a speech prepared for deliv
ery at the Syracuse Press Club
Nixon said the Democrats’ presi
dential nominee “topped the world’s
record for demagoguery when he
attacked the Eisenhower admini
stration on the cost of living issue.”
“This maneuver,” he said, “will
fall flat on its face because the
millions of American housewives
who keep the family savings budg
et can’t be fooled by fancy phras
es and clever quips.
“The Eisenhower administra
tion took the wage earner off the
Truman treadmill on which, no
matter how fast he ran, he always
fell behind The Stevenson pro
gram for the future, just like the
Truman program which it so
closely resembles, is based on in
flation and ‘pit in the sky.’ ”
Nixon accused Stevenson, Sen.
Estes Kefauver, Democratic vice-
presidential nominee, and Truman
of charging “directly and by in
nuendo that the President and his
administration are for the rich
and against the poor—for large
business and against the small—
for the big man and against the
little man.”
“In the interest of everything
that is decent and fine in our
American tradition,” Nixon said,
“this charge must be met head-on
and nailed for what it is—a false
and vicious idea which is alien to
the basic traditions that have
made America great—those who
would divide America into classes
are bringing to this land ideas
which do not belong here and are
rendering a terrible disserve to
our country.”
JERSEY CITY, N.J., <A>)—Adlai
E. Stevenson accused President
Eisenhower last nig’ht of four
years of “words without action
whenever human interests are at
stake.”
Stevenson delivered a sharp
shooting attack on Eisenhower
and a scattershot attack on the
Republican party to climax a day
which saw the presidential race
turn a big corner.
Eisenhower’s “wicked nonsense”
crack at the Democrats brought
Stevenson out, gloves off and catch
as catch can. To be called non-
senical was one thing, Stevenson
said, but to be labeled wicked was
another.
At a rally on the historic green
of Morristown, N. J., Stevenson
said:
“I am afraid that this is becom
ing part of the political looseness,
that previously was identified with
the vice - presidential candidate
Richard Nixon who always talks
about the opponents in terms of
‘appeasement’ a n d ‘communism’
and ‘treachery’ and words like
that. I do hope the vice-presiden
tial taste for extreme and loose
language is not becoming contag
ious.”
Aides said Stevenson’s strategy
has been to “get Eisenhower off
his pedestal” so their man can
slug toe-to-toe with him on the
issues. Eisenhower gave them the
chance Monday at Cleveland when
he said Democrats claims that only
Democrats care for the working
man were “wicked nonsense.”
In his prepared talk, Stevenson
said Eisenhower and his adminis
tration gave the people nothing but
“words—empty words” instead of
action on foreign policy, slum
clearance, schools and immigra
tion.

By
Ken George
Pinky was in the MSC the other
day and was telling a story that
is supposed to be true. So since
this column is dedicated to the
truth (in some form), here is the
story.
Seems as though one of the pre
season sportswriters was on the
campus and chanced to meet Pinky.
This same sportswriter decided to
check and see if he could find any
information connecting Pinky with
A&M football.
Mrs. Pinky seemed to be the
one to interview so he went to the
Pinky home and the following con
versation took place.
Writer—Mrs. Pinky, did Pinky
ever play A&M football?
Mrs. P.—No.
At this point the writer decided
another approach in the hopes of
getting a good story pertaining to
football.
Writer—Mrs. Pinky, is Pinky
religious ?
Mrs. P.—Yes, he goes to church
every Sunday.
Writer—Does he pray?
Mrs. P.—Yes, every night.
Writer—Have you ever heard
him pray ?
Mrs. P.—Yes.
Yankees Are Gathering
To Converse In American
By D. YANKEE
Battalion Ghost Writer
Again the minority on the cam
pus will band together for a year
of fellowship and talking that only
the members of the organization
can understand.
It’s not the French Club, nor the
Spanish Club, but the Yankee
Hometown Club. Each year the
yankees who venture into the vast
ness of the great State of Texas
feel the need of talking with some
one who doesn’t say “y’all.” They

Mrs. P.—He said “Lord, you

and I’ll take over again in the
morning.

be as easy as everyone says it is.

their living room and so being

worked on it, he painted and she
corrected.
Overheard in the MSC—“Honey,
you aren’t paying any attention to
me.” He—“what are you doing?”
She—“thinking!”

Nelson J. Sprague, from Con-
neticut, has invited all freshmen
yankees to attend the first meeting
of the club tomorrow night in the
Y.
To qualify for membership, a

good share of the northern states.
Most of the “foreigners” come
