SPRINGFIELD, Ill., (AP)-Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson took off from Capitol airport this morning for Denver where he will open a campaign out of the west that his managers hope will outmatch Gen. Eisenhower's thunderous sweep through the south.
He expects to hit nine states in nine days, travelling mostly by air. In at least one speech, and possibly others, the Democratic presidential candidate intends to carry the fight to the Republicans answering arguments, and attempting to mow down some of their major contentions. The Denver address tonight will be aimed at the GOP battle cry, "It's Time For a Change."
Heretofore, Stevenson has been largely occupied with setting forth his own ideas, laying the broad foundation of his campaign.
He has not answered in detail Republican accusations about corruption in government, nor taken public notice of any direct attacks on himself.
Stevenson's campaign manager, Wilson Wyatt, described the reports of Eisenhower's high powered drive through the south as merely "interesting." He added, "it hasn't worried us."
Sen. George A. Smathers of Florida took a different view. He said "Eisenhower made a big impression. It certainly means he's got some strength."
