Stevenson vows moderation despite possible nomination loss
Adlai E Stevenson says he will maintain his course of moderation in the Democratic race even if it costs him the nomination. He will not out promise rivals and will continue to express his views on issues, noting parity goals may not be attainable or desirable. If voters reject him, he accepts responsibility for not conveying his ideas.
