The latest shots in the political war Were fired a few minutes ago By President Truman in Pittsburgh Where he's fighting to win for Governor Stevenson The 36 electoral votes of Pennsylvania Which the President himself lost to Thomas Dewey four years ago. Before an enthusiastic Pittsburgh audience Tonight, President Truman said He's glad to see that in recent days General Eisenhower speaking in the Eastern states has sounded somewhat less Like an isolationist, but said the President, I cannot trust a man Who has played this kind of game With the grave issues of national security And he urged his listeners to choose a man Who maintains his principles under fire And that is, he said, Governor Stevenson In upstate New York, General Eisenhower Finished a New England tour Before enormous audiences With a speech tonight in Troy Where he devoted himself to the subject Of the nation's finances. He accused the administration Of systematically encouraging inflation And using inflation as a national policy The remedy consists of three steps. One, knocking down the administration Idol of cheap money, two, getting Unified action from the government's Economic agencies, and three, slicing The fat out of the national budget. And General Eisenhower spoke scornfully Of the administration's controls over Prices, he said there are nothing But weak stop gaps. Governor Adelaide Stevenson is in New York State too and we're just getting The reports of his speech in Buffalo Where he said General Eisenhower By holding out hope for the swift release Of people who are now enslaved Behind the Iron Curtain.
