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

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

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.
