Taft's Chips Down

If Sen. Robert A. Taft does
well in Wisconsin his campaign
for the Republican presidential
nomination will receive 'a most
useful boost. A reverse in Wis
consin would hurt the Taft cam
paign badly.
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower is
not entered in Wisconsin. Gov.
Earl Warren of California is
represented by a slate of conven
tion delegate-candidates who al
so are friendly to Ike. They are
so friendly that the Warren vote
reasonably may be interpreted
a week from Wednesday as very
substantially an expression of

Eisenhower sentiment, also.
Slasaan Has Candidates
Harold E. Stassen also has a
slate of delegate-candidates, but
Tuesday night he announced he
would give half of any elected
to Eisenhower on the first ballot
at the Republican national con
vention. The former Minnesota
governor's move was regarded
in general as a bid for support
from voters favoring Eisen
hower. Stassen is not likely to
get any support from fringe sup
porters of Taft, especially now.
Gen. Douglas MacArthur has
disavowed the slate of delegates
entered in his behalf but with
out his name being on the bal
lot. That disavowal should be
more advantageous to Taft than
to other entries.
No Write-in Voles
Neither Ike nor MacArthur
can be written-in on the Wiscon
sin ballot." Nor is there any per
sonal popularity vote, as there
was in New Hampshire and Min
nesota. The Wisconsin primary
is for election of convention
delegates only.
Wisconsin was the state orig
inally chosen by Taft's managers
for a show of his strength. De-'
cision to go into New Hamp
shire and New Jersey primaries
came later. The senator lost in
New Hampshire and withdrew
from New Jersey.
The chips emphatically are.
down in Wisconsin for Taft He
is making a terrific campaign.
Warren's stake also is great If
the governor fails to make a
reasonably good showing, his
stock as a vote-getter outside
California will suffer.
Truman Not on Ballot
Delegates favorable to Presi
dent Truman are entered in the
Wisconsin primary although the
president's name will not be on
the ballot. Sen. Estes Kefauver
is bucking the administration
there for Democratic convention
votes.
Nebraska's primary falls on
the same day as .Wisconsin's.
There it is Kefauver against the
administration's Sen. Robert S.
Kerr of Oklahoma in a popular
ity contest.
Write-in is okay in Nebraska.
Movements are stirring to write
in both Taft and Eisenhower.
Stassen is . formally entered in
Nebraska's primary opposed by
Mrs. Mary Kenny who favors
MacArthur. The Nebraska prim
ary does not pledge delegates to
either convention to support
any person. Wisconsin's does.

Hopes To Avert
Portland Transit
Strike Increased
Portland (U.R) A citizens
committee resumed its task of
working out Portland's transpor
tation problems Wednesday as
Portland Traction Company
President Gordon Steele made
two offers that raised hopes that
an AFL bus drivers' strike set
for next Tuesday, can be averted.
Steele said:
1. "If the city council ap
proves an increase in fares prior
to April 1, I pledge every effort
to bring about an adjustment of
the wage controversy to avert
any disruption in Portalnd trac
tion operations."
To Use Federal Service
2. "We will make use of the
federal conciliation service or
any other agency that can be
helpful" in bringing about a set
tlement.
Earlier, Harvey Thomas, busi
ness agent for the union, had
asked the federal mediation serv
ice to intervene. Commissioner
Bob McClelland said he would
arrange a meeting between the
company and the union. The fed
eral conciliator said he would
meet separately with traction
company officials, and then
would ask for a joint session
with both disputing parties in an
effort to find a common area of
agreement.
May Study Problems
Meanwhile, Fulton Magill, pub
lic utilities consultant of Tacoma, '
may be called upon to make a
study of the city's transportation
problems. The city council has
asked City Attorney Alexander
G. Brown to contact Magill in a
new effort to solve operating
problems of the company. I

Under Flaming Tractor

year-old farm boy who kissed
his younger brother goodbye,
ordered him to "get away from
me" then burned to death
"without a whimper" beneath a
blazing tractor was to get
hero's funeral Wednesday.
The story of how Richard
Dale Foreman died in an acci
dent on his family's farm near
here was told Tuesday by his
heartbroken, 11-year-old broth'
er, Glendell
The two brothers were riding
on the tractor Monday when the
front wheel of the vehicle swerv
ed. The vehicle overturned and
burst into flames. Glendall was
thrown clear, but Richard's legs
were pinned under the tractor.
Glendell said he was beating
on the tractor with his coat try
ing to put out the fire when
Richard made him stop.
"He said to kiss him goodbye,
and I did," Glendell said. "Then
he told me to get away. He kept
telling me to get away from him
. . . that the gasoline tank would
blow up."
