The Democrats in Congress were prepared. if he had signed the farm bill. to charge the President with playing politics. substituting a desire to please people for his principles. They thought they had Mr. Eisenhower either way. If he signed. he was a demagogue. if he vetoed. he was against the farmer. Instead. Mr. Eisenhower has emerged ahead. Even if he should lose the votes of 200.000 farmers in Illinois. which of course is very doubtful. he will have strengthened his position with independents and with the country as a whole. He carried Illinois by nearly half a million votes in 1952. The politicians are dealing with a man whom they do not understand too well. for he is forthright and honest.
