6. One of the leading reasons for
remodeling ah older house is pro
vision for plenty of storage space.
This applies not only to the kitchen
and bathroom, but also to the bed
rooms. Look into the cabinet and
closet situation carefully when
drawing up remodeling plans. Good
storage does not detract from home
glamor.

tion—a man who was not running
for the'job. In passing over the •
candidates who tried so hard for
the nomination, and in choosing
Governor Stevenson, who did not
try at all, the Democrats instinc
tively turned to the man who could,
best unite the party and whose
ability is undisputed.
As a newspaper that is emphat
ically and enthusiastically in fa
vor of General :Eisenhowers elec--
tion the Presidency of the Unit
ed States, we can and do find sat
isfaction in the nomination of Gov
ernor Stevenson. His selection as
Democratic nominee insures that—
at least so far as the two protagon
ists are concerned—the campaign
will be conducted on a decent and
Dir if Oc r erI-
dignified level. We hope and ex
pect to see the differences of opin
ion between the Democrats and
Republicans on many important 1
matters developed, clarified and i
argued out during the coming [
months. That is the way a healthy
democracy works.^ But in the state;
of the world today it would have;
been extremely unhealthy if this'
campaign had degenerated into ai
fiercely partisan and demagogic!
dispute over the past, present and ;
future foreign policy of the United :
Statesr Of that we now need have
no fear; for Eisenhower and Ste- i
venson both have the character;
and the understanding that would
m»kc~9ueh-a- destructively divisive
campaign impossible.
If this newspaper has so high a
regard for Governor Stevenson, it
may fairly be asked why we con-
tinuu t-.i argup—now even more :»■

though it has never had such a
slogan How much better it
would have done with a slogan is
hard to say.
The fact is. We have never
been able to hit upon one that
exactly suited us. or that fitted
'ur company as we thought it
should. But we are still m thr
marKet. and instead of paying
some high-priced advertising ex
pert to write us a slogan, we have
dec ded to have a contest and of
fer a nice prize to the person who
suggests the best one. We are
certa.n there is someone in South

just the slogan we have been
looking for.

election of General Eisenhower.
There are two fundamental reas
ons, and they are the same reas-
ons on which we based our orig
inal plea for General Eisenhow
er's nomination. One is in the field
of domestic policy; the other in;
foreign policy.
It is this hewpsaper’s belief that |
a change of administration is es-
sfifltial wgltare.Qf this cpuei
try and to the continuation of the
twx>-party system in the United
States. The Democrats have been
in office for twenty years—for five
Presidential terms—and they have
have been giving increasing evi
dence of fatigue, ineptitude and
corrosion.
The party has accomplished
many fine thin^ during its two
decades under Roosevelt and Tnj-
man; but,. particularly in the realm
of economic policies in recent
years, it has been willing to fol
low the course of least resistance
with seriously harmful effects
More important than that, with the
years of power there has come a
certain complacency, an indiffer
ence to the highest standards of
public service, a comfortable liai-j
son with special interests, a seamy
connivance in petty corruption, an
arrogance toward those in disa
greement, a distasteful tendency to
self-praise and an aversion to self-
criticism. Admitedly, Governor Ste
venson himself has not been taint
ed in this way, for he has been
busy cleaning up Illinois while
Washington basked in the fruits of
power; but Stevenson or no Ste
venson, it is the Democratic party
that has been in the saddle, and
there is an inherent, concrete and
important value in the simple fact
of change that a Republican vic
tory would bring about.
Much as we desire this change,
however, we would only be able to
support a Republican nominee who
recognized America's position of
responsibility in the world. Gen
eral Eisenhower not only recogniz
es this responsibility; he is almost
the embodiment of it. More than
any other living man General Eis
enhower stands as the symbol of
effective American participation in
the global effort to stem the tide
of Soviet Communist aggression.
He understands the workings and
the implications of the North At
lantic Pact, keystone of our foreign
policy; and if American leadership
is required, as we believe it is, t<5
inspire and unite the rest of the 1
world in defense of its liberty and:
