The Democratic nominee attack¬ ed by name Republican Sens. Rob¬ ert A. Taft, Joseph R. McCarthy and William E. Jenner—men he said the general had aligned him¬ self with while campaigning in the midwest. To suggestions that, once elect¬ ed, Eisenhower would cut loose from these senators, Stevenson acidly said It was these very men who would "run the country." "Alarming Oiasm" At the same time, Stevenson said that the campaign is closing with "an alarming chasm reopen¬ ing" In the country. He charged the Republicans with "irresponsi¬ ble politics" in holding hopes of early liberation to the peoples of Russian slave states. He said the GOP had played "dangerous politics" in promising early tax cuts; that it was "cheap politics" to suggest that one can¬ didate was more deeply concerned than the other about the Korean War; and that it was "sorry poli¬ tics" to urge re-election of men "preaching unreconstructed isola¬ tionism" to Congress. "I grieve, and so should you, that the Republicans have made am issue of war and peace when there was none, four months ago because this far transcends poli¬ tics or the political fortunes of any man," he said. "The stakes are life and death; the stake."; are civilization itself— not votes in an election cam¬ paign."

The Democratic nominee attack¬ ed by name Republican Sens. Rob¬ ert A. Taft, Joseph R. McCarthy and William E. Jenner—men he said the general had aligned him¬ self with while campaigning in the midwest. To suggestions that, once elect¬ ed, Eisenhower would cut loose from these senators, Stevenson acidly said It was these very men who would "run the country." "Alarming Oiasm" At the same time, Stevenson said that the campaign is closing with "an alarming chasm reopen¬ ing" In the country. He charged the Republicans with "irresponsi¬ ble politics" in holding hopes of early liberation to the peoples of Russian slave states. He said the GOP had played "dangerous politics" in promising early tax cuts; that it was "cheap politics" to suggest that one can¬ didate was more deeply concerned than the other about the Korean War; and that it was "sorry poli¬ tics" to urge re-election of men "preaching unreconstructed isola¬ tionism" to Congress. "I grieve, and so should you, that the Republicans have made am issue of war and peace when there was none, four months ago because this far transcends poli¬ tics or the political fortunes of any man," he said. "The stakes are life and death; the stake."; are civilization itself— not votes in an election cam¬ paign."
