Knight Seeks Unity
For GOP; Sen. Morse
Sees Fate of Whigs
Washington U.R) Gov.
Goodwin J. Knight of California
stepped forward today with
plea for his Republican party to
"heal its wounds" quickly in
order to remain in power in
1956.
The heir to Earl Warren's noli'
tical mantle admitted frankly
mat tne uup is divided between
right wine and liberal factions
But he said, "I think it can be
healed.
"I think the division has been
unduly . emphasized bv small
groups who do not really rep
resent the great thinking and
the great convictions of the
large groups of Republicans and
the large mass of Republicans,"
he said.
Must Face Responsibilities
Knight said the divisions can
jbe erased if the GOP faces up to
"international responsibilities as
well as national responsibilities
, and if that is accepted as the
; policy of the party ..."
He spoke as Sen. Wayne Morse, i
Oregon Independent who bolted
the Republican party in 1952,
charged that the GOP is so split
! into "various congolmerations of
discord and hisharmony" that it
Fugitives Found
In Old Mine Tunnel
By Cop, Newsman
Las Vesas (U.R) Three
Clark county jail fugitives, in
cluding one murder suspect,
were captured early today in an
abandoned mine tunnel by a po
lice detective and a reporter.
The trio and a woman com
panion were taken into custody
about 10 miles east of this gamb
ling resort by policeman Paul
Deweert and Colin McKinlay,
city - editor for the Las Vegas
Sun. .
Police said a woman's tiD that
she saw some men near the ab-
'andoned Frenchman Mine led a
group of police to the scene.
-While others were searching the
general mine area, Deweert and
McKinlay, both armed, entered
the mine and finally came upon
the .escapees asleep at the end
of a tunnel.
Escape Yesterday
Deweert held a rifle on the
group while McKinlay went for
help.
The trio which escaped yester
day after overpowering a jailer
was identified as Walter Sefton,
32, who was to go on trial today
on charges of murdering a wo
man, J. D. Tucker, 33, and Clif
ford F. Lair, 31, held on forg
ery charges. Police said a wo
: man identified as Deborah Faye
i Vassar, 22, was with the men
. and was believed partly respon
'; sible for the escape. Police said
she had been allowed to sleep in
the jail Saturday night.
Sefton was arrested in Flint,
Mich., last spring and allegedly
admitted the fatal stabbing of
'Jacqueline Kelly, 42, Las Vegas,
last Dec. 22.
may disappear entirely.
. Morse made the statement in
commenting on the condemna
tion of Sen. 'Joseph R. McCarthy
in which 22 Republicans voted
for and 22 Republicans voted
against the resolution to con
demn the Wisconsin Republican
"The McCarthy debate served
clear notice on the country that
one can no longer speak of a
single united Republican party
but must now speak in terms of
tne spvpra I Bpnnhliran norlioe "
Morse said.
Party May Vanish
. "We now have the Eisenhowpr
Republican cartv. the Knowland
Republican party, the McCarthy
neDUDllcan nartv. the .Tenner
Republican party and Remibli-
can parties with various con
golmerations of discord anrt rtie
harmony," he added. '
"It is not bevond the hrmnrie
of probability that, within the
next iew years, tne Renubliean
party will go the way of the
TIM.; ...
wmg party, and if it does Ameri

" ... uww guuuj
Morse said.
The Whig party elected presi
dents in isu and 1848 but tore
itself to pieces in the middle
1850's in the controversy over
slavery.
Knight, sneaking in a tele.
vision interview with columnist
Drew Pearson, said his fellow
Californians Sen. William F
Knowland and Vice-President
iticnard M. Nixon have "honor
able and decent and vigorous
ambitions." But he refused tn
commit himself on whether they
