The ballot ing will pit him in a so-called popularity contest against Presi dent Eisenhower. Sen. Estes Kefauver concen trated on the Los Angeles-San Diego area of Southern Califor nia today in seeking votes for the state's June 5 primary. He talked on street corners and shook hands in a half-dozen northern California cities Wednesday, trying to make up for his failure to pick up more than one-half of a convention vote in Tuesday's New Jersey primary. Kefauver's staff passed the hat among his audiences, admitting the senator is running into a problem financing his California campaign. Congressional R e p u b licans noted that when a showdown came on the President' s decision to veto the farm bill, 28 Repub licans and three Democrats who originally supported the farm measure switched to Mr. Eisen hower's side. . The result was that the Demo cratic bill not only failed to win the necessary two-thirds margin needed to override a veto, it also failed to win a majority vote even though it had passed earlier by 56 votes.

Poage (D Tex.) said that farm state Republicans who switched their votes did so be- cause they concluded that "Ike's coattails are the safest place to be in an election year.

The service will assist in the sale of each listing of city and county property, including farms, officials said, and added that by special arrangement in dividual listings will be cleared as quickly as possible and made available to other realtors par ticipating in the service. More Sales Power Realtors said they expected the additional sales power pro duced through the Multiple List ing Service will insure quicker turnover of listed properties and greater satisfaction to persons wishing to dispose of property. Property not included in the service is commercial types of fered for sale. Individual real tors will handle the listing and attempt the sale, officers of the service said. Realtors pointed out that property owners probably will find several advantages of the service, among which is the joint sales effort. . E L. Bartholomew is chair man of the service, and Clark J.
