(U.R) Adlai Stevenson, expressing himself as "very pleased" with the results of the Florida presidential pri mary, called today on his sup porters to "redouble their ef forts" to ensure a victory in California's primary election next Tuesday. A slate of delegates pledged to Stevenson is opposed to a slate pledged to Sen. Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.) on the Democratic ballot in the June 5 'election. Thus, the election is a "popular ity contest" in which the winner gets all of the state's 68 con vention votes. Victory Statement Stevenson spent last night at the Casa de Vallejo here to await the, returns of the Florida primary. The race was nip and tuck for hours, but at last he pulled into a clear but slim margin over Kefauver. It was shortly after 10 p.m. (PST) that Stevenson finally de cided it was safe to issue a vic tory statement. He said: Sen. Kefauver Claims Moral Victory1 in Florida Elections spot with Stevenson 8 col hed SEN. KEFAUVER 2 col hed.... Los Angeles flJ.R) A confi dent Sen. Estes Kefauver today claimed a ."moral victory" in the Florida primary despite losing by a slim margin to his Demo cratic opponent, Adlai Steven ion. "The vote shows I have strength in the South and I con aider it a great moral victory," Kefauver said. "It was frankly much better than I expected under the circumstances." The lanky presidential aspir ant arrived here late Tuesday night by plane from Florida. He greeted reporters at the airport with a smile and seemed well pleased with the outcome of the election. "This vote breaks the so-called myth that the South won't sup port one of its own," be said. "It also breaks the myth that Dr. Stevenson Serving As Book Consultant Ashland Serving as one of the consultants for the current edition of the New Wonder Book Cyclopedia of World Knowledge, Dr. Elmo N. Stev enson, president of Southern Oregon college, also edited the sections on birds and mammals in the 12 volume set. Dr. Stevenson, who is observ ing the 10th year of his presi dency of the college, shared in writing general science articles concerning the philosophical as pects of science. ' Use Tribune Want Ads Stevenson has a great deal more support than I have in the South." Kefauver said he would have more to say on the election after he studied the voting returns. The senator arrived here in a final campaign swing of Califor nia before the state's primary next Tuesday. "I am of course very pleased about the result in the Florida primary. "I am deeply grateful to the people of Florida for their en dorsement. And I am especially thankful to all those who helped me so loyally. Their efforts meant all the difference. Redouble Effort "The California primary will be next Tuesday. I hope that those who feel as I do will see in the Florida results the import ance of redoubling our efforts. Stevenson found an opportun ity Tuesday to make one of his rare attacks on Kefauver. He said he was "surprised and re sentful" that Kefauver should criticize his record on old age pensions while governor of Illi nois. A Higher Plane He called on Kefauver to help him restore the campaign for the Democratic presidential nom ination to a higher plane. Stevenson accused Kefauver of using pamphlets written by California pension promoter George McLean during the Flor ida campaign that "grossly dis torted my record in Illinois." Sen. Glemerits Builds Big Lead in Race for Kentucky Nomination Louisville, Ky. U.R) Sen. Earle C. Clements built up a lead of nearly 90,000 votes over former Rep. Joe B. Bates today to win his battle for renomina tion on the Democratic ticket and for control of the Demo cratic party machinery in Ken tucky. The polls had been closed only an hour Tuesday, before machine-counted ballots in the state's major population centers showed the unmistakable sweep for Clements over the candidate backed by Gov. A. B. Chandler, At 8:10 p.m. (EDT), Bates' campaign manager Charles Blackburn conceded the Clem ents victory in a statement from Bates' headquarters in Frank fort. With the vote counting about seven-eighths complete, the vote stood at 195,281 for Clements: 1 106,793 for Bates; and 1,554 for a third candidate, James L.

ADDRESS CITY Returns were in from 3,530 of the state's 4,042 precincts. Republicans chose former As sistant Secretary of State Thurs ton B. Morton as their nominee to oppose Clements. Incumbents Win All eight incumbent Kentucky congressmen six Democrats and two Republicans won re nomination by large margins, even though four of them were opposed by candidates backed by Chandler. The voting in the Democratic primary was the heaviest in Ken tucky since 1938, and the final total, swelled by 18-year-old resi dents voting for the first time, was expected to run well above the 300,000 mark. Clements victory Tuesday was in marked contrast to the aeieat oi the Clements organi zation last year when Chandler won the Democratic nomination for governor and the governor ship. Ever since he took office last fall, Chandler has stated repeat edly that removal of Clements from the senate was" one of the chief objectives of his adminis tration. He issued a statement last night, however, congratulat ing Clements and pledging him support in the fall campaign. Clements' victory assured him of retaining control of the Demo cratic party organization in Ken tucky. He probably will be able to name the Democratic candi date for the unexpired Senate term of the late Alben W. Barkley. It also meant that Chan dler's hopes of going to the Democratic national convention as Kentucky's favorite son may depend on his willingness and ability to reach a compromise with Clements.
