M TOILET TIISUI afa ktolqet'pJuu Taff Regains Margin Over Gen. Eisenhower In Republican Race By LYLE C. WILSON Washington U.R) Sen. Rob ert A. Taft regained by a good margin Wednesday from Gen. Dwlght D. Eisenhower the lead Dosition in committed presiden tial nominating votes in the Re publican National Convention. The score according to the United. Press tabulation: Taft 330; Eisenhower 201. Necessary to nominate, 604. Kafauvar Takes Lead Sen. Estes Kcfauver, D-Tenn., took the lead among Democratic candidates, displacing W. Ave'r- ell Harriman and gaining a long er lead on Sen. Richard B. Rus sell, D-Ga. The icore: Kcfauver lll'i; Harriman 9414; Russell 40. Necessary to nominate, 818. These were the results In terms of convention votes of scattered primaries held Tuesday and being tabulated Wednesday. They do not, however, tell the whole story of the voting. Taft Gains In Ohio Taft's gain was on home no mopping... ' f no scrubbing... I the tatier , p. BRUCE way! Vj llnolium I wood floors Exclusive Broker John K. Waire Company grounds in Ohio where he blank cd Harold E. Stassen 88-to-0 In a contest of much meaning to both men. Eisenhower was not entered. Stassen was badly licked in each district contest for dele gates and in the state-wide dole- gale-at-large poll. Taft needed that decisive victory in Ohio to avoid trouble which led directly four years ago to his defeat for the Republican presidential nonv Ination. Stassen's drive for the Republican nomination was slowed weeks ago. Now it has stopped. Taft and Stassen were presi dential primary contestants in 1948. The then sparkling young man from Minnesota Jolted Taft by taking nine of Ohio's conven tion delegates. That was proof enough for the fence sitters that Taft lacked voter appeal. If he could not hold the Ohio line in tnct, they reasoned, he would not do well away from home. Deway Used Argument Gov. Thomas E. Dewey's nom ination campaign managers In 1948 made voodoo medicine with that argument. It afflicted Taft's convention effort for the big prize with a creeping paralysis With Ohio returns in, Taft re mains a strong contender for the presidential nomination to be conferred the second week of July by the Republican National Convention. Democratic Interest centered on returns from Ohio, Florida and Alabama primaries Kefau ver rocked the administration again by barging' into an Ohio holding operation to take 21- of the state's 62 Democratic conven tion votes, on the basis of In complete returns.

A last minute effort to put over Lowell Paget of Portland as Republican National commit teeman in the coming primary is ijaving hard-sledding in Medford and JacKson couniy. PagM waj the leader of the Taft effort in the state to nullify the direct primary and sond a delegation to the Chicago con vention who would not be bound to support the candidate the vot er of Oregon selected. Not only many papers In the state have vigorously opposed Paget and the other conspirators for this move, but Governor Douglas McKay has appealed to the Republicans of the state to join them and defeat what he termed "an effort to scuttle Ore gon'l primary system." D. H. Barber, Republican pre cinct committeeman of Trail, joined in this drive against Pa get yesterday by sending a let ter to L. A. Bean, Republican county chairman of Madras, Ore gon, who urged Paget's election, of which the following is a copy Mr. L. A. Bean, County ' Chairman, Jefferfon County Republican Central Committee, Madras, Oregon. Dear Mr. Bean: As a precinct committee man, 1 have received copy of your letter to H. Clay Myers Jr., in which you urge the elec tion of Lowell C. Paget as Na tional committeeman, and -attack the candidacy of Jesse Card. Is not this Lowell C. Paget the same man who filed for delegalc-at-large to the Nation al Convention by petition, pre sumably so that he would not have to vote for the presiden tial candidate who will be the people's choice In the primary? Does he not by this action, proclaim that he will not be bound by the expressed wishes of his party? If not, why did he file in this way? Mr. Paget has no doubt done good work for the party in the past, but by this action he de serves to forfeit any reward he might claim. By this action, also, he seems to recognize that ho i probably now out of step with the thinking of his party, and intends to vote for what lie wants and not what we want. If he favors Taft, as he is supposed to do, the com ing pripiary will prove how out of step he Is. Your only attack on Mr. Gard is that he was once a registered Democrat. No one believes more in cause or works harder or more effec tively for it than a convinced convert. I think you know that we need several million of these people who were once Democrats to win an election. Do we tell them that we wel come their votes but that L there's nothing for them in our party, no matter how sincere they are or how well they've proved it by hard work in our party in the years since they made that "terrible mistake." In spite of the excellent chance we now have to nomi nate and elect a man who will make a great president, the Old Guard of the party can lose that election if they insist on putting over their candi date for President by deals with "captive" Southern Re publican organizations and by electing people like Mr. Paget who put themselves in a posi tion where they can - ignore the wishes of the Republicans of this state. Let's nominate and elect Elsenhower, and let's send delegates to the Convention and n man to the National Committee who are in tune with our thinking. If we do, we'll send Gard. Very truly yours, D. H. Barber, Star Route, Trail, Oregon. May 6. Eagle Point Sophs Slafe Play Friday .
