~ Truman Calls tke
Labels Drive ‘Insult To American People’
By DAYTON MOORE ited Press Staff Correspondent
Un EN ROUTE WITH TRUMAN, Sept. 29—President Truman today accused Gen. Dwight Eisenhower of being a
“front man” for the “special
interest fellows who run the
Republican Party” and said he is waging an emotional campaign “insulting to the American people.” ich
In a speech prepared for delivery from his campaign train at Fargo, N. D., Mr. Truman tore into Gen, Eisenhower as a gullible man “who has spent all his life in the Army”: and, therefore, is unwise to the way of GOP politicians, The President sald Gen. Eisenhower is attempting te win the presidency ‘by appealing to people's emotions, not to their intellects.”
‘Insulting to Americans’ “That's why you won't find any-
thing in most of his speeches ex-
cept slogans, generalities and scare words,” Mr. Truman sald the Republican candidate's campaign. “I think it's insulting to the American people to tell them. to make up their minds according to their emotions, and not on the basis of the great issues that are before them.” Mr. Truman also defended his administration on the corruption issue. He said that he had “cleaned up corruption in the government wherever I've found it.” But the Republicans, he charged, don't
really want to get rid of corrup-!
tion, preferring to kick it"around as a political football. . Mr, Truman sald that an “unholy crew” of Republicans representing special interest lobbies had decided to try to make corruption the big issue ig, the presidential campaign.
Praises Langer

“The Republican candidate, stems to" be listening to some] strange advice so far as a foreign policy is concerned,” he said. The President said his administration had “crushed the Communist conspiracy in this country, and , . . stopped the advance of communism all over the globe.”
Slaps at Kremlin
“We moved into Korea to make "¢3Fd the ‘Rev. Douglas G. Me- telephone PL aza 555!
it plain to the Kremlin that the free countries of the world don’t plan to engage in appeasement for we have learned from bitter experience that appeasement is the road to total war,” Mr. Truman said. “The Communists haven't crossed another frontier since. anywhere in the world.” The Fargo speech was the first major address and the second rear platform appeal for votes on a two - week, 8500 - mile, coast - to - coast stumping tour which calls for Mr. Truman to make 12 ma jor speeches and nearly 80 whistlestop talks in 16 states. "Mr. Truman expressed confidence that the nation’s voters would elect Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson, the Democratic candidate, as President and Sen. John J. 'Spark-
man, his running mate, Vice President when they “got the facts.”
The President promised to fupply such facts by telling “the truth about your government - and the Republican record, too—" as he did in 1948, “The truth about the matter is that the special interest fellows who run the Republican ' party are so anxious to get control of the government for their

purposes that they won't stop at anything,” Mr, Truman said. These ‘special Interests’ were afraid to “pick one of their own gang” for a presidential candidate because they knew the people would see through that,” the President added.’ Gulped Hook, Line, Sinker After picking Gen, Eisenhower Mr. Truman sald, “they swarmed all around him and began selling him their special interest line of propaganda.” “He has swallowed it hook, line and sinker,” Mr, Truman added, “And he is doing and saying exactly what they tell him, He may not know it, but he has become a front man for the lobbies.”
‘Look Out Neighbor’
Mr, Truman said he was “sorry”, ~

In Brief Appearances In his only political remark of the day, President Truman said that Sen. William E. Jenner (R. Ind.) was the last man in the world he would want to embrace. He made the statement from the rear platform of his train at Ft. Wayne when a woman in a crowd of 300 to 400 shouted, “at least you don’t have to put vour arm around Jenner.” Gen, Dwight D. Eisenhower, the Republican presidential candidate, was photographed recently holding hands aloft with Sen. Jenner on a speaking platform in Indianapolis. Sen. Jenner has
been a bitter critic of Gen. Eisenhower's old mititary boss, Gen. George C. Marshall.
A crowd officially estimated at between 2000 and 4000 were at the station at Canton, O. About 300 turned out at Crestline, O. Mr. Truman and made brief rear platform appearances at both places.
In keeping with his rule against Sunday campaigning he -confined his stop in Chicago to the rail yards where his train was switched to different tracks. He waved at newsmen, but gave no
