Stevenson and Gov. Averell Harriman of New York in the fight for the 1956 Democratic presidential nomination. Harriman, who was instru mental in throwing the 1952 Democratic nomination to "Ste venson, looked more and more like he would be a candidate himself next year. The New York governor scheduled a conference today with Oklahoma Gov. Raymond Gary, reported under considera tion as 1956 Democratic vice presidential nominee. Gary told reporters that Oklahoma would prefer Harriman to Stevenson. Sen. Paul H. Douglas (D.-Ill.) a Stevenson supporter, said that Harriman appeared to be "danc ing the minuet first forward, then backward." Douglas re ferred to Harriman's recent statement that although he has repeatedly said he is "for" Ste venson he is not bound to sup port the former Illinois gover nor. Other political developments. 1. The Wall Street Journal said a survey of 27 Democratic state governors and other party leaders showed Stevenson "clearly in the lead" for the Democratic nomination. The sur vey rated Harriman a serious contender and Sen. Estes Kefau ver (D.-Ten.) a "definite threat." 2. Agriculture Secretary Ezra T. Benson accused-Stevenson of trying to revive "the discredited Brannan farm program." He said Stevenson's proposal to try "new .techniques" of , securing fair prices to farmers was just another way of recommending direct government subsidies to farmers.; 3. Republican National Chair ftian Leonard W. Hall said that President Eisenhower's heart at tack will prompt the President to announce his 1956 plans ear lier than originally expected. But this announcement is still "some months" away, Hall said. 4. Kefauver, in Korea on a world tour, said "I am not a candidate" but added that he did not know "what the future holds." . Sen. . Price Daniel (D.-Tex.) said he believes two Texans Senate Democratic. Leader Lyn don B. Johnson and ; Speaker Sam Rayburn will be running for the Democratic nomination next- year. Daniel said that despite John son's recent heart attack, "with rapid recovery,, there is still a chance" Johnson will be nomi nated. . Sen. Prescott Bush (R.-Conn.) made a similar statement about Mr. Eisenhower. He said the President "may get a little irri tated" with persons who "want to write him off" as a candidate for re-election. Bush said that medical reports give "good reason" to believe Mr. Eisenhower may run next year. GBflr DuPont Face Renewed Legal Battfle Washington (U.R) Two of the nation's giant industrial em pires -the General Motors and Dupont corporations faced a renewed legal battle today to escape a government-ordered shake-up of billion-dollar stock holdings. In a major victory for the Jus tice Department, the Supreme Court Monday agreed to decide whether the two corporations are illegally interlocked and are combining to restrain trade. Federal Judge Walter J. La Buy of Chicago ruled last May after an 18-month hearing that evidence failed to back up the government's contention that Dupont controls GM as GM's largest single stockholder. Du pont owns 23 per cent of GM's outstanding stock, a holding val ued at more than $2,000,000,000. The Supreme Court will hear arguments on the case within a few months and later hand down a decision sure to have wide re percussions in the financial world. Over 300 Cases More than 320 other cases were acted on by the Supreme Court Monday.. Thirty-nine were accepted for review. The rest were rejected. In its first opinion of the new term, the court ordered the Uni versity of Alabama to admit two Negro students who hadjbeen de nied admission since 1952. In other actions the high bench: Dismissed a federal govern ment request that it settle a dis pute over Louisiana's claim to oil-rich submerged lands 10.5 miles seaward. The government wanted the court to set the boun dary at three miles. The action leaves the government free to bring a. separate suit in a lower federal court. Accepted for review a case that may bring a landmark de cision on the job rights of Com munists in private industry. The Bio-Lab Union (Ind.), of Cutter Laboratories, Berkeley, Calif., appealed from a state court de cision that employment of Com munists is "against public pol icy." The union said the right of Communists to "live and eat" is at stake. Granted a hearing to Frank Costello, a notorious underworld figure,, who was convicted of evading more than $30,000 in federal income taxes. At the same time, the court left stand ing Costello's contempt convic tion and $500 fine for refusing to answer questions at a pre trial deportation hearing. Agreed -to test the legality ' of the Federal Communications multiple ownership rule which sets a limit on individual owner ship of radio and television sta tions. Left standing a $175,000 libel judgment against newspaper col umnist Westbrook Pegler, , the Hearst Corp., and Hearst Con solidated Publications for a Peg- leg column about writer Quen tin Reynolds. 1 Rejected the appeals of: Arthur H. Samish, California liquor lobbyist and political force, sentenced to three years imprisonment for income tax evasion ; Joe Adonis, East Coast racket chief facing an eight to 24-month prison term on a charge he lied when he told Sen ate crime investigators that he was an American citizen, and Edward "Eddie" Coco, former manager of prizefighter Rocky Graziano, sentenced to life for the murder of a Miami, Fla., car washer.
