HOPKINS FOR DELEGATE Front the 4th Congressional District to the Republican Na tional Convention. Filed by declaration, pledged to support the choice of the Re publican majority. I will -fight to nominate a presidential candidate who can win in November. Paid Adv. By C. LYLE WILSON Washington (U.R) Some real istically minded Democrats are looking for a presidential can didate stronger than any now in the field. They are looking at Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson of Illinois. Stevenson has said he is not a candidate, doesn't want to be president, prefers not to live in the White House. His admirers here do not suggest the governor was lying. But they are convinced he could not refuse h 1 s party's presidential nomina tion and would not absolutely forbid it if the Democratic National con vention next July developed a whopping enthusiasm for him. They probably are right about that. Stevenson is 52 years old. His experience as governor of one of the largest states is a solid political asset. There has been a whiff of draft-Truman perfume in the air ever since the President an nounced he would not be a can didate to succeed himself. He has told party leaders since then that he meant it tipped them not to attempt a draft. In an emergency the leaders still might try a Tfliman draft. But a Stevenson draft definitely is the first order of business under consideration by some of the practical individuals who are laying convention plans now. They believe that maneuver would avoid a convention dead lock. No Reflection Cast It is no reflection on so young and comparatively inexperienced a man as Sen. Estes Kcfauver that some party stalwarts prefer to look elsewhere. Five terms in the House and a first term in the Senate do not add up to the most useful experience prelim inary to severe executive respon sibility. Kefauver is 48. But Kefauver is the only Dem ocrat candidate so far to make any general impression on the voters. - .- . Draft-Stevenson talk is touch- CHAPMAN'S FOR YOUR SPRING ROMANCE .

Jackson County In Sixth Place In MOD Campaign Jackson county placed sixth among Oregon's 36 counties in raising of funds during the Janu ary March of Dimes campaign, according to figures released by Dr. E.
