Ike and Taft Forge Firm
Partnership in 1st JB Weeks
' By LTLE
Washington tlJJ President
Eisenhower and Sen. HoDeri a.
Taft (R., O.) have formed a
firm and powerful partnership
in the first eight weeks of the
new Republican administra
tion. That may prove to be the No.
1 Dolitlcal development in the
experience of the Eisenhower
sdministration, so far. It has
come about more by the coop
erative attitude of the senator
than from any friendly beckon
ing by the executive depart
ment. '
Some observers here are
convinced that several of Mr.
Elsenhower's most important
aides deliberately gave Taft a
political hazing during the pre
inaugural period. ' He was in
vited, for example, to suggest
persons for the cabinet.
The Punch Hurt
Herbert Brownell, Jr., now
attorney general, conferred sol
emnly with Taft whereafter the
senator was socked twice where
It hurt. George M. Humphrey,
from Taft's home atate, was
named treasury secretary with
out a preliminary word to the
senator. He read about it in
the papers. Martin P. Durkin's
nomination to be labor secreta
ry hit Taft even harder.
"incredible, the senator ex
claimed. Thereafter he led a
delegation to the White House
and worked out a patronage

system whereby senators would
be cohsulted about nominees

ommendation waa accepted for

Above All Else ,
Taft. meantime, baa put par
ty welfare above bis personal
feelings when necessary to sup
port the administration. He
voted in the labor committee
for Durklns confirmation as la
bor secretary.
The senator indicated his at
titude toward the new admin
istration when he called the
president's inaugural speech
"a great and inspiring begin
ning:" Taft would like to move
further and faster in Asia than
would the administration, but
he has conceded that the new
president Is doing all right
there. '
