Stevenson Reveals
Plans To Enler
Delegate Contest
Washington (U.R Califor
nia's June primary may provide
a make-or-break test for the
presidential ambitions of Adlai
E. 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-.
