, publican senators from the Rocky
Mountain West declare the New
, Hampshire election- indicates Pres-
. ident Truman's political goose is
cooked. But they say it Rives no
clue as to who will get the Repub
lican presidential nomination.
The Westerners were invited to
comment on last week's election,
' in which Sen. Kefauver of Ten
nessee trounced President Truman
and Gen. Dwisht Eisenhower de
feated Sen. Taft of Ohio.
Most of them replied that Taffs
chances weren't hurt much, if at
' all, and a few said they thought
be did well, although Eisenhower
supporters have been claiming an
important victory, '
Sen. Ecton of Montana told a re
porter: "The primary was not significant
as far as the Republican candidates
sre concerned. But it proved that
, the people will repudiate President
Truman and his administration.
The New Hampshire voters who
still are in the Democratic party
repudiated the administration by
going for a freshman senator like
Kefauver in preference to the
President."
Sen. Watkins of Utah, who has
announced he is for Taft, said:
"Most significant were the small
rote for Truman and the small
Democratic vote, which show that
the Truman administration is at a
low ebb and bode ill for the Dem
ocratic Party. .
"The results of the Taft-Eisen-hower
contest don't settle anything,
in my opinion, although they prob
ably will boost the morale of the
Eisenhower forces and make the
Taft workers work harder. . . .
"Straw votes among delegates in
Republican county conventions, be
ing held now, show that Taft is the
fevorlle in Utah."
Sens. Bennett of Utah and Welker
of Idaho believe Illinois and Wis
consin primaries will have more
significance than the New Hamp
shire voting.
"The Illinois primary would be
much more significant if Taft
should be beaten there," Bennett
said. "The situation In Illinois is
the reverse of that in New Hamp-'
shire, where it was assumed that
Gen. Elsenhower would win.
"Both Taft and Elsenhower may
tnke comfort from results of the
New Hampshire primary - Elsen
hower the most," Bennett added.
"Taft knew in the beginning he
was going to be beaten in New
Hampshire. His appearance there
led some people to believe he might
win. I, feel he got a surprising
vote."
Welker, who said he was not
committed to any presidential as
pirant, commented:
"I don't think the New Hamp
shire primary was a fair test of
the strength of Sen. Ta't. I will be
much more interested In the out
come of the Wisconsin and Illinois
primaries.
"New Hampshire was hand-
ilcked for the general, who was
tacked by the governor, an ex-
governor. Sen. Tobey (R-N.H.,
and two Congressmen the entire
yte Republican machine was
firmly behind him. I was surprised
it up this way:
"The results of the New Hamp
shire primary will have a psycho
logical effect upon contests for the
presidential nomination in Julv. Re
ports indicate that every known de
vice for getting publicity was util
ized, and even outside campaign
ers invaded the state. . . ,
"It would have been extremely
unusual if Sen. Taft had been able
to defeat Governor Adams and his
Republican administration, which
went all out for Gen. Eisenhower.
The primary was not merelv a
fight between Taft and the general,
but also one between the Ohio sen
ator and the Republican organiza
tion of the state."
Sen. Malone of Nevada termed
Taffs showing in New Hampshire
"phenomenal. He added:
"Sen. Taft had no help and went
into a strange state. He got 40 ner
cent of the Republican vote after
spending only three days in the
state while most of the New Hamp
shire Republican leaders were
against him."
Draft Douglas

FREMONT. O. Wl A China
biographer, here to write about a
Republican President, has an
nounced a campaign to draft Su
preme Court Justice William O.
Douglas as the Democratic presi
dential nominee.
Harry Bernard told a reporter
Mondav a Douglas-for-Presldent
Committee with an "impressive"
number of liberal Democrats will
be formed in Chicago, probably
next month.
Bernard is writing a biography
of Republican Rutherford B.
Hayes, a Fremont man who was
the 19th President of the United
States. Bernard is a former Chi
cago Times editorial writer.
uoueias, he sa'.l. "Is the only
man for Democratic President if
we are to win the battle against
Communism in the world."
Bernard said that although the
jurist has indicated he does not
want to be a candidate. Douglas
stands for a "positive policy of
democracy, rather than a defen.
sive orte that might lead to war."

! NEW YORK IB Is the belly
laugh getting old-fashioned?
One way to judge a people is to
read what they laugh at. And there
are some who believe the American
sense of humor is going downhill.
Many professional comedians
complain the nation is' developing
an ulcer on its funnybone.
'People are too tense." they say.
"People won't take the kidding they
used to. They don't like to laugh at
themselves any more.
An antidote to this trend in a
tense political year is provided by
Editor Donald Day in a book of
selections from Will Rogers called
"How We Elect our Presidents."
It is a handy little guidebook back
to sanity for both candidates and
voters who take themselves too
seriously.
Looking back at these many
years after his death on an Alaskan
tundra, the humor of the gum
chewing cowboy still stands up
well. But the cutting quality of his
quips stands out more clearly now
that the grin that went with them
is buried. Will drew his lariat noose
tight on a lot of nonsense in his
time that needed strangling.
One wonders whether the states
men of today could hold their tem
pers if they were the target of his
artful tosses. Would they have held
still for Rogers who wrote:
"Ain't it funny how many hun
dreds of thousands of soldiers we
can recruit with nerve? But we
just can't find one politician in a
million with backbone."
Nominating himself for vice
president In 1924. Will said:
Another big reason why I should
be nominated is I am not a Demo
crat. Another still bigger reason
why I should be nominated is I am
not a Republican. I am just pro
gressive enough to suit the dis
satisfied. Aril lazy enough to be a
stand patter."
Will Rogers loved the circus
atmosphere of political conventions
and described politics as "the best
show in America.
"I love animals and I love politi
cians, and T like to watch both of
'em play either back home in their
native state or after they have been
captured and sent to a zoo or to
Washington."
Here are a few of his more
rememberable remarks, some of
them as seasonable as ever:
"Ohio claims they are due a
president as they haven't had one
since Taft. Look at the United
States, they haven't had one since
Lincoln."
'Corruption has supplanted the
tariff as a national issue . . . It's
hard to get people to believe a
thing as corruption when it's some
thing that has always been going
on . . . It's like the poor, it's
always been with us."
i ne more you read and observe
about this politics thing, you got to
admit that each party is worse than
tne oiner. me one tnats out al
ways looks the best."
The Democrats take the whole
thing as a ioke and the Republicans
take It serious and run It like a
joke. So there's not much differ
ence." "Harding Is sending out his
speeches on the phonograph. Well,
us public will have one consolation
a record when dropped breaks
easily."
"Normalcy with me was when I
owned nothing and paid no Income
tax."
f What would Will have thought of
television? Well, he wrote:
'Personally, I think the camera
has done-more harm for politics
than any other one faction. Every
body would rather get their pic
tures in the paper than their ideas.
Eisenhower said in Junuurv he
would accept the nomination If it
were ottered, but "In the absence
of a clear-cut call to political riulv"
would not ask to be relieved of
his command and would not en
