be a LOT of delegates who will
be more interested In electing a

That will represent quite a
change of atmosphere.
Let's take a chance and quote
here the latest figures of the Oallup

' In all, they were surprisingly close.
In his latest Poll, Oallup matched
Tnfl and Elsenhower, each sepa
rately, against Kelnuver and Ste
venson, who at the- moment are
regarded as the strongest of the
Democratic probabilities. Here are
the results:
If Stevenson runs against Tnl.
Stevenson will win by the narrow
margin of one percentage point.
If Kefauvcr runs against Taft, Ke
lnuver will win by the fairly com
fortable margin of nine percentage
points.
But If Elsenhower runs against
Slcvcnson, Ike will win by the de

points and If It Is Eisenhower

Commies Offer
Truce Plans
Ry RAM HUMMimiN
MUN8AN. Korea Wl Commu
nist negotiators Thursday offered
a new plan for breaking Uie Kor
ean truce talks deadlock, but an
Allied spokesman said Ihe proposal
contains a "lot ot gimmicks and
potential gimmicks."
MhI. Clen. Wllllnm K. Ilurrluon
Jr., said the Red plan "may be
an Important one and It may not."
The Reds Indicated thev would
ease their demand lor return ol
all military prisoners In United
Nations stockades, provided the
20,1100 Chinese captives are re
turned. They asked lor secret
sessions to discuss Uie proposal.
Harrison, the senior Allied ne
gotiator, Immediately called for
d Inurnment until Friday (8 p.m.
PST Thursday) to study It. He did
not reply to the Communist de
mand lor secret sessions.
"The exact meaning and Ihe
lull significance lot the Red pro
posals) Is not Immedlulelv appar
ent to the United Nations com
mand," said Brig. Oen. William
P. Nuckola, U, N. spokesman. He
said It contains a ' lot ol gimmicks
and potential gimmicks."
Allied refusal to rcpntrinte any
prisoner who does' not want to go
home has deadlocked tnp truce
talks for weeks.
Last Aorll the V. N. screened
most of the HS9.000 war oaptlvca
and civilian Internees In Its stock
ades and found that about 100,000
did not want to return to Commu
nl.it rule. The total Included about
16,000 Chlnesivwar prisoners.
The- new Red proposal closely
resembled the Communists' May
olfer. Then the Reds demanded
return of 116,000 North Korean and
Chinese prisoners of war. They In
dicated, however, thev mlRht yield
on 16.000 South Koreans Impressed
Into the North Korean army and
might not argue over the disposi
tion of 31.1100 civilian Internets.
The Communists Thursday pro
posed that all Korean war captives
be "reclassllled" according: to na
tionality and area and that prison
er lists be checked. They agreed
to permit ' Allied-held South Kor
eans to "return Immediately with
out being repatriated," but insisted
on return of all chines prisoners.
The event has a purse of 11300.
The riders draw their mounts
by number, wllh luck having the
only taxruol ever ,which horse or
bull Ums select. '

Cowhand, led Uie bareback division
