nois' presidential preferential prl
mary. Illinois has 4.818,000 registered
voters. A two-million ballot Tues
day was looked (or because of a
happy weather forecast and steam
generated by stump speeches and
write-in campaigns.
The primary Is strictly a popu
larity poll. Results are not bind
ing on delegates to the presiden
tial nominating convention, al
though they may influence lean
ings. Meanwhile, here are the names
and the political news they made:
Sen. Taft of Ohio and Gen. Eisen
hower, North Atlantic Treaty mili
tary chief, seemed headed toward
a possible deadlock at the GOP
presidential nomination convention
in July.
Taft generally is conceded to
have about twice as many delegates
as Elsenhower now but an appar
ent trend recently is to split state
support between them. Hence, they
could come down to the wire prac
tically neck-and-neck.
Taft and former Gov. Stassen of
Minnesota, who also seeks the GOP
nomination, stump-toured Illinois
all last week. Riley Bender of Chi
cago Is their only opposition on the
ballot, but an Eisenhower write
in campaign is being pushed.
Sen. Kefauver of Tennessee Is
unopposed In Illinois' Democratic
primary. However, he faced pros
pects of a strong write-in for 1111-

coastal lands, according to Mon
day's Dallas (Tex.) Morning News.
It quotes the general as saying he
had not changed a previously-expressed
opinion that federal con
trol of these so-called tldclands
would tend "toward centrallEed
ownership and control , , . which
I have bitterly opposed."
Rep. Hugh Scott Jr., of Pennsyl
vania, former GOP national chair
man, said in Richmond, Va.: "The
best thing Taft could do to serve
his party and nation would be to
second the nomination of Ike (El
senhower) at .the convention."
Scott spoke at a Virgmians-for-
Eisenhower rally.
Gov. Theodore Roosevelt McKel-
din of Maryland met Eisenhowef '.
for lunch in Paris Sunday. After
wards, the governor said they
hadnt talked about when the gen
