Stevenson began his last big campaign trib today after picturing Dwight D. Eisenhower as a sort of split personality leading a party with no policy or program.! Stevenson told a crowd of about 5,000 persons Monday night that Eisenhower was waging a campaign of “expediency” because his party has “no policy, no program and no real faith in the ‘'future of America.” The \ Democratic presidential candidate said Eisenhower shifted his opinions from day!to day and asked “which general hre We Supposed to believe?” ’ ■ * For his final campaign tour Stevenson dropped hih airplane “pro-peller-stop’’ aimed an old-fashioned Railroad “whistlestop” trip at 12 eahteVn states with a lucrative total' of 206 electoral votes.

New Jersey. Maryland. Delaware and West Virginia. | \ On his way to Chicago today he will make stops at Decatur and champaign. Once in the Windy City he will appear on another' of his nationwide radio - television “fire-side chats." The Illinois governor left on his last big trip expressing confidence in a Democratic victory “if the people can clearly see and understand their, choices.” . He said the Democrats offer “Confidence and faith’in our defttiny, expanding our economy, extending the social \gains of the last 20 years and building up the strength of the free world against the day of peace and security and disarmament in the world.” Stevenson opened up on' Eisenhower before a near capacity crowd in the Springfield armory. “Some days the general seeips to stand with the fbr positive action at home, to preveht depression and improve the free-, dom and security of our people,’’ he said. ! . ’ • .;?' “But on other days, and these seemto be in the majority, the general \stoutly advocates the election of all 'the' Republican senators and congressmen who vote against just such positive foreign and domestic policies.” He accused Eisenhower, in * effect. of insincerity in some pf the major issues, like inflation, social security, foreign aid and Cpmtaunista in government. ,L: : ' . ? j. ? r “ Fouk Airmen Killed In Jet Plane Crash ] COLUMBUS, O.
