Adlai Stevenson opened the 1952 campaign in Santa Fe with a pledge to “talk sense” with running mate Estes Kefauver. He told party workers from seven states that Democrats will listen and act for “the wants of the people.” Crowds estimated 5 000 to 8 000 attended.

Stevenson’s Labor Day Detroit speech follows a Sept. 13 nationwide network address.
