Stevenson's Big Lead
Unweakened By Rivals
(Continued From Page One)
cut down Stevenson's lead for the
nomination to the point where
there would be a series of con
vention ballots. Stevenson's back
ers have based their victory hopes
primarily on a quick decision.
His opponents made minor pro
gress here and there. But there
was no sign they had lessened ma
terially the long lead Stevenson
built up early in the race or had
offset the impetus given him by
the withdrawal of Sen. Estes Ke
fauver of Tennessee.
Stevanien Counts 533
Stevenson forged above the 500
vote mark in first-ballot strength
in the Associated Press poll of dele
gates willing to state public pre
ference. Latest figures showed Stevenson
with 538 votes to 213 for Harri
man, 277V4 scattered among favor
ite sons and others and 343V4 still
uncommitted and unwilling to state
a preference. The nomination re
quires 8864.
The Harriman camp claimed 400
votes; Stevenson strategists stuck
to their prediction of 600 to 630
on the first ballot.
After days of suspense, Truman
announced late Saturday he re
gards Harriman as the "best quali
fied man" to be president.
Aided by Mrs. Franklin D.
Roosevelt, who campaigned with
him until midnight last night de
spite her 71 years, Stevenson kept
up a drumming pace. By all odds,
he was the favorite in the applause
at gatherings where he, Harriman
and others turned out.
From Sen. Richard L. Neubcrger
of Oregon came a prediction that
Truman will have "no more effect
on the Democratic convention of
1956 than Herbert Hoover had on
the Republican convention" four
years ago wnen Hoover nacicea me
late Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio
for the GOP presidential nomina
tion. Taft lost to Eisenhower on
the first ballot.

Lawton Giegcr, Atomic Energy
Commission director for the Pitts

It then will produce more than
can be handled at the pilot plant
in the final two operations of
chlorination and reduction,, the

The new plant, to be built on a
