A Bay Area lead editorial dated March 15 argues Nixon’s political record and character, praising his wartime service and Senate tenure. It portrays Nixon as a principled American, capable of guiding the country and resisting leftist smears.
The article argues that Nixon remains a target of vicious, ongoing attacks since his 1950s career. It counters claims from Truman and labor groups that he called Truman a traitor and labels the Democratic Party treasonous, asserting he did no such thing and that accusations were exaggerated by political opponents.
The Democrats target Nixon with hostile publicity to undermine Eisenhower’s popularity. They focus on the Vice President as the chief campaign weapon and portray Nixon as the main challenger to Eisenhower, hoping voters see him as a risky future president. A recent poll hints at his home state troubles.
The piece profiles a 32-year-old California union worker, a Democratic supporter who backs Ike, highlighting his steady income, house and car, family life, and cautious views on a shorter workweek. It also notes his influence within organized labor and concerns about union leadership steering politics. The Schreoders’ son Keith, a Congressional page, reports meeting Anthony Eden and potential Chicago Democratic convention duties.
