Sen. Toft Urged
To Announce His
Presidency Aim
WASHINGTON -im Senator
Brewster (R,Me) says he feels
Senator Robert A. Taft should an
nounce fairly soon that he is a can
didate for the Republican presi
dential nomination. Ue said he will
urge the Ohioan to de. so.
Taft has arranged to meet with
David Ingalls and Ben Tate,
friends who have been sounding
out sentiment across the country.
He has said his decision whether
to announce formally for the nom
ination will hinge in large part on
their findings.
But Jack Martin, Taft's admin
istrative assistant, said the sena
tor will not announce that decision
just yet.
Brewster, a Taft supporter, told
a reporter that ordinarily it is not
good strategy for a candidate to
announce too soon, but he said
he thinks the situation now calls
for an early announcement by
Taft.
Brewster has contended that
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower,
prominently mentioned with Taft
as a possible GOP nominee, is
indispensable in Europe, where he
is building up the West'-s defenses
and that he expects the general to
stay with that job.
Taft's office has issued a state
ment which supported widespread
speculation he will again seek the
GOP nomination actively, as he
has done unsuccessfully twice in
the past.
The statement said the senator
has recived more than 1,150 mes
sages from Republicans all over
the country and that they "indi
cate a widespread grassroots de
sire to see Senator Taft announce
his candidacy."
The Ohio state Republican cen
tral and executive committee,
meeting in Columbus, urged Taft
to throw his hat in the ring. It
said he "qualifies by actual per
formance as the best vote-getter
in the Republican party today."

Officials Oppose Plans To Build Electric Plants 0
WASHINGTON P Opposi
tion to the Interior department's
plan to build eight fuel-burning
electric generating plants in the
Pacific Northwest developed with
in the house Public Works commit
tee Monday.
Six members of the committee,
five Republicans and one Demo
crat, prepared a report which Rep.
Dondero (R-Mich) said questioned
motives of the dcaprtment in sup
porting tho program.
A bill authorizing the secretary
of the Interior to construct the
plants was approved by a ma
jority of the committee last week.
Dondero, ranking Republican on
the committee, said the minority
group doubted that the steam gen
erating plants are necessary for
national defense, as claimed by
the Interior department.
The report listed six objections
to the proposal
Dondero said Cowlitz river hy
droelectric projects planned by the
city of Tacoma and a private util
ity would produce 580,000 kilowatts
of power for the Northwest. The
projects would accomplish the
same firming up purpose for the
Northwest power pool as the 400,
000 kilowatt projects the govern
ment proposes to build, and at no
expense to the government, Don
dero said. He said there are "grave
doubts" whether the Interior de
partment has not "deliberately ob
structed" efforts to get licenses
for the projects.
Dondero said the minority group
also wondered whether the de
partments acted in good faith. He
said witnesses told the committee
the proposed plants would take
from a year to 18 months longer
to put in operation than would
the non federal hydroelectric
projects.
The Michigan Republican said
the group also wanted to know:
What resources of fuel for the
proposed plants is available.
Whether the "prospective North
west defense production crisis is
not artificial and . bureaucratically
inspired."
Whether the aluminum compa
nies that benefit from cheap, gov
ernment power in the Pacific
Northwest shouldn't build their own
steam plants.
Whether sufficient efforts have
been made to locate industries in
gas producing areas of the South
west before starting new produc
tion in the "power-starved" Pa
cific Northwest.
Reps. Wood (R-Idaho), Fallon
(D-Md), Vursell (R-lil), McGregor
(R-Ohio) and Beall (R-Md) joined
Dondero in the protest.
The oath prescribed for a Presi
dent taking office is outlined in
Section 1 of Article III of the U. S.
Constitution.

Columbus' Descendant
On Way To United States
NEW YORK UP) Christo
pherColumbus discovered Amer
ica Wednesday, two days ahead of
time.
The history books say he got
here on Oct. 12.
But the modern Columbis, a 26-year-old
Spanish duke and naval
lieutenant, beat the traditional
landing date.
A direct descendant oand name
sake of the man who first sailed
to this country in 1492, he's on his
way to Washington to be guest of
the Spanish embassy at its cele
bration Friday of the discovery of
America.
It was his first trip here, and
some Indians (from Arizona) were
out to offer him tobacco (tailor
mades), just like they did his an
cestor. The plane flight from Madrid
look 21 hours, which is probably
what helped put him ahead of the
schedule of the original Columbus,
who made it in 70 days on the ship
Santa Maria.
And this time, there were no mu
tinies by the crew.
