Stevenson and Sen. Estes Ke fauver (D-Tenn.). Stevenson announced yester day that he will enter the winner-take-all contest for the Cal ifornia delegation to the Demo cratic national convention. And Kefauver said in a Los Angeles speech he also "most certainly" will enter if he becomes a can didate. Kefauver will discuss his 1956 intentions at a Washington news conference tomorrow and is ex pected to announce definitely he will seek the Democratic nomi nation. Would Weaken Drives' Defeat of either Stevenson or Kefauver in the California pri mary could seriously weaken and perhaps doom their nomi nation drives Other political developments: (1.) A reliable source disclosed that President Eisenhower's backers in New Hampshire have been assured the President will not bow out as a possible 1956 candidate before their primary election March 13. The source said the assurance came from an administration's lieutenant, not from the President himself. Such assurance would permit the delegates to run as pro-Eisenhower delegates to the GOP na tional convention without risk ing repudiation if the President later decides against a second term. (2.) Sen. Prescott Bush (R Conn.) said Mr. Eisenhower can wait until March to make his decision on a second term with out hampering the grooming of another candidate if Mr. Eisen hower doesn't run. Bush said Mr. Eisenhower should not be "put under any pressure of any kind by anyone" to make a quick decision. (3.) Gov. Averell Harriman of New York, said the Democratic party is "conservative", because it is working "to conserve and expand the values of American life, not just for a few, but for all people." (4.) Harold E. Stassen, presi dential disarmament assistant, predicted the Republican party in 1956 will poll its largest labor vote in 20 years. (5.) Ohio Gov. Frank J. Lausche, who announced as a favorite son candidate for the Democratic presidential nomi nation yesterday, would not say "yes" or "no" wnen asked if he would campaign for delegates in other states. He indicated his "present intention" was not to dp so. Stevenson announced that in addition to California's June 5 primary he will enter primaries in Illinois April 10, Pennsylvania-April 24 and Florida May 29. He already had announced plans to enter -the Minnesota primary March 20. The former Democratic presi dential nominee said he has "reached no final decision" on entering any other primaries in cluding the nation's first in New Hampshire. Kefauver, if a can didate, is almost certain to enter the primary in New Hampshire where he has strong support. Congress lo Learn Water Consumption Washington (U.R) An economy-minded Congress soon will know within a few drips how much water is used at the White House. The Army Corps of Engineers is completing installation of meters on all the mansion's in coming water lines in accord ance with a law passed by the 83rd Congress. The law requires the govern ment to pay the District of Co lumbia by the gallon for all water used in federal buildings located in the district. Previous ly the government paid a flat $1, 000,000 a year for water. Meters have been installed in 95 per cent of the buildings. Up to now, however, the White House taps could be left open with impunity. John Kester, the Corps' meter chief, said an' estimated average of 110,000 gallons of water flows through White House pipes each day. At least half of it is used in the air conditioning system, Kes ter said. "Then there are the foun tains," he added. "And don't for get every time you run a bath that's 20 gallons. And every time you flush a toilet, that's an other eight." Kester said meters already have shown the government was getting water at bargain rates. The first year of metering the bill was S2,298,000 and last year it was $1,302,000. But he doesn't think accurate metering at the White House will increase the bill much. Chile Threatens Copper Strikers Santiago, Chile (U.R) The Chilean government today threatened to place strikebound U. S.-bwned copper mines under military control to break the paralyzing tieup that is costing the treasury an estimated $600, 000 daily in lost revenues. Nearly 15,000 miners and oth er employees struck yesterday at two mines. The mines, largest of the American-owned diggings in Chile, produce an average of 1,000 tons of copper- daily. The strike was called because the government ignored union demands for increased profit sharing and bonuses for workers in drafting new labor laws-.
