Stevenson, reminded by President Truman to watch his steps, i.i trying to waltz General Eisenhower into a corner. When photographers were turning him around to get a good shot of him during his visit here a few weeks ago, Stevenson quipped: "I ha been so much trouble since was in dancing school." I'oliticiti Dancing At least his political dancing seemed a little maty for he stepped smack on Truman's toes.

And, like a man with bunions, Truman Hhowed he didn't like it. This is what had happened: Over a week ago, in a letter to an editor, Stevenson said he if ejected, clean up the "mess" in Washington. Asked about this at his news conference last Thursday, Truman snapped he knew of no mess. asked if he felt he was a target, Truman said the Democratic party had to run on the record or the iloosevelt-Truman administration and that's all it could count on. Meanwhile, Eisenhower publicly approved some of the social legislation placed on the books under the Democratic administrations of tliu past 20 years.

This gave Stevenson an opportunity to needle Eisenhower with a crack about being a "me toocr." HUH, one of the oddities of this campaign is that the New Deal and the "Fair leant under those mimes--have hardly figured in this campaign although they were issues in previous presi- dential races. Hud Poltehed But late yesterday, at a Democratic rally in New Jersey, Stevenson showed that in a week's time lie had polished up on his political dancing. He came out with lavish praise of Democratic doings for the past 20 years. Speaking of his party, he said: "There have been mistakes, there have been failures, there have been false starts. There may be more, but the blazing record of growth and change and progress we have written in these two memorable decades can never be drowned in oratory and epithet.

"The Republicans are split wide open on foreign policy. On domestic policy only now are they slowly and reluctantly accepting the ideas successfully spnsored by the Dem ocratic party years ago," Bushel Of Belit "As to their 'platform, well, nobody can stand on a bushel of eels So where will Eisenhower stand? Well. looks more and more as though he were going to stand on our platform Stevenson talked of the 20-j'ear Democratic administration but no: as a New Deal or a "fair" one Since he's pretty nimble witl words, he may have had a reason or maybe he just doesn't like -slogans. Still, Stevenson tried to make this speech do double duty. It could serve to reassure Truman Democrats about him.

And it was a wide open taunt to Eisenhowei to show whether he was a "me tooer." Oil Companies Refuse Hearing Before Senatorial Committee I5y G. MILTON" HKLI.Y WASUliNGTON, Aug. 28 Kmnll Kuainesa Committee today none of seven Yiig oil firms accused of monopoly practices has accepted an offer tq appeaV before the committee anil dinputu thu charge. The monopoly accusations were detailed in a I on g- sup pressed report i by Federal Trade CnmmiKsion staff membera. The report was made public by the Senate committee Monday after President Truman acceded to yen- atora' demands that it be released.

Will Decide Blalte O'Connor, directing the committee's profesaional staff, said the group will decide now whether to order public hearings of its own on the matter, write a. report based on the FTC findings or simply let the report stand. Sen. John Sparkman of. Alabama, (he committee chairman and Democratic nominee for vice president, unnoimccd in making the report public lie was reserving yesterday and today for public hearings if any of the seven companies wanted to reply.

'We have had no request for a hearing from any of the seven," O'Connor told reporter. "There have been no takers, so Dr. Walter AdiuiiM, the staff member who would have conducted the hearings, Is returning to his post as a member of the faculty of Michigan State College at East Lansing Mich." The report named the' seven companies as Standard Oil of New Jersey, Standard of California, the Texas Oil und Gulf Oil all incorporated in this country, the Anglo-Iran- Oil largely by the liritlflh government, and Royal Dutch Shell, owned mainly. by Dutch and British intercuts. In statements at the time, the companies Renerally denied any wrongdoing.

The Juslicn Department is investigating the group, und has filed iVige suits totaling U7 million dollars against the two Standard 'ompantea, tin; Texas Co. and So- irony-Vacuwn. i Declined O'Connor sutil he considers It understandable" that the declined an opportunity to answor the FTC while Iho grand jury Inquiry and the law suits are pemltnK.
