Press) Some indication of who is going to inherit the New Eng land following that had Tx-en gen erally conceded to Wendell L. Willkie may come today when Maine and Connecticut choose their delegates to the republican national convention. Willkie himself has made no public move since dropping out of the running, and the activity in one or tils former political strongholds took on fresh pi quancy with the sudden resur gence of a draft-MacArthur-for-president movement. Connecticut, first state, to vote solidly for Willkie four years ago, names lb delegates today but they probably will go to the Chi cago convention without instruc tions. And the field Was left wide open when House Minority Lead er Joseph W. Martin of Massa chusetts told them last night that the republican party has "a num ber of good men" qualified for the presidency. Maine republicans choose the first six of their 13 delegates aft er hearing their convention chairman. Rep. Margaret C. Smith, warn against permitting "the glamor of apparent victory to blind us." Maine' also was strong for Willkie in 1940. More Backing For F. R. .Meanwhile President Roosevelt appeared likely to pick up somr more fourth term support at a scheduled meeting today of Mich igan democrats, who will name convention delegates holding 38 votes. Democrats gathered also in Minnesota, where they were ex pected to merge with farmer la borites preparatory to selecting 24 delegates to the democratic national convention tomorrow. . Tomorrow will be another busy day for the republicans, with Ari zona picking 8 delegates, Idaho 11 and Virginia completing its slate of 19. Iowa democrats will name a fourth term delegation with 20 votes the same day. ular fancy, for all of Its early crudeness, and development was rapid.
