The practical political effect of
James F. Byrnes’ announcement that
he will vote for Eisenhower will be
hard to evaluate, and we are neither
qualified nor disposed to make pre
dictions concerning it.
The most important aspect of his
action, we think, is that he put into
words the misgivings that many a
Democrat has felt about Governor
Stevenson but hardly know how to
express. How much his decision was
influenced by personal feelings — by
his long feud with President Truman
and by the shabby treatment he re
ceived at the Chicago convention—
perhaps not even Mr. Brynes himself

hat in the ring as a Democrat, and part in it, but we suspect that with

The Senator who is adapted to subconscious.
Party Put First
Four years ago Olin Johnston, the
• :air weather senator" of our state,
was urging General Eisenhower to
run for the presidency on the Demo
cratic (so-called )ticket. He worked
harder than any officeholder in the
changing his course of travel is now
all-out for Governor Adlai Stevenson
'or president. His colleague, Senator
Maybank, and our congressmen who
have publicly expressed themselves
say they will vote for the Democratic
ticket regardless of its odbr and wh^it
it stands for because party comes
first. Officeholders as they are, na
turally think first of their seniority
and committee assignments. Senator
Johnston is making the loudest noise.
He says he will support Gov. Steven
son “with all the power that God
gave me.” This means that the sena
tor is voting for a party label and not
principles. Governor Byrnes in his
courageous announced decision to
support Eisenhower in preference to
Stevenson put principle qbove party.
Gov. Byrnes and thousands of others
have not deserted the party of their
The chief disappointment is with
the candidate Stevenson, and Mr.
Byrnes is the first Southern politician
of prominence who has drawn up a
clear-cut bill of particulars showing
precisely on what points the party’s
nominee falls short of what the South
and the country as a whole expect of
their next President.
Like Mr. Byrnes, a great many of
us had hopes for Stevenson when he
was nominated as a result of what
appeared to be a wave of popular
enthusiasm independent of political
ties to the Truman Fair Deal. It soon
became obvious, however, that these
political ties did exist and that they
were very strong.
The first indication came when
Stevenson appointed as his campaign
manager Wilson, Wyatt, whose egre
gious mistakes as housing expediter
fathers. To the contrary, it has de- cost the taxpayers multiplied millons
of dollars in cold cash, and who has
been an active leader in the left-wing
serted them.
Senator Johnston wants Stevenson
to win is perhaps moved chiefly by a
desire to protect his seniority. If we
remember correctly, he is chairman

TROUBLE
- Stomach trouble is one of the
most prevalent disorders of
modern times, making life mis
erable for thousands of suffer
ers. It may express itself with
symptoms such as feeling of
fullness and distress before and
after eating, belching, nausea,
vomiting and pain.
Tiny glands, in the walls of
the stomach, manufacture gas
tric juices of the proper qual
ity and quantity when needed.
These glands are controlled by
the brain through the nervous
system. When these nerves are
pinched this control is impair
ed and these glands manufac
ture abnormal amounts of gas
tric juices, thus resulting in
stomach distress.
Dr. Hart is well trained in
the art of locating and remov
ing nerve pressure which caus
es so much stomach distress. If
you are suffering from stomach
trouble and it.is your desire to
get well, come to our office for
a consultation today.
