Sen. Dirksen's Plea For Votes for Taft Get Mixed Reception Chicago U.R) Sen. Ever ett Dirksen appealed in vain to the Republican Convention Wed nesday night not to "commit suicide" at the polls by backing the forces of Gen. Dwight D.. Eisenhower in the Georgia dele gate contest. The Illinois senator, head of his state's delegation, delivered an impassioned speech punctua ted by frequent cheering and booing in which he said the GOP would "set a roadblock in the path of what looks like a certain Republican victory in 1952" by approving the Eisen hower position. Illinois Backs Taft But after hearing Dirksen and a series of speakers pro and con on the contest, the convention voted to seat the delegates who had the general's blessing. Illin ois voted 59 to 1 on the Taft side. Dirksen, in his first address to the convention, said "We've had the habit of winning con ventions and losing elections in the last 20 years "I think the time has come to let reason and judgment per suade us," he declared. Reputation Charged The senator said the "whole record" of the convention would be before the voters this year and a vote against the Taft backers would be a repudiation of the National Committee, con vention credentials committee and the courts of Georgia, which upheld the Taft cause. "We would demean our own integrity here and impeach our own motives," he said. "I trust tonight we will not commit sui cide and impair our chances of victory in November. "If we have no faith in each other, how in heaven's holy name are we going to sell the Republican cause to the voters in 1952?" Singles Out Delegations Dirksen singled out the Penn sylvania and New York delega tions, whose credentials com mittee members voted for the Just A Breeze!
