That Is what a "keynote" apeak
er al a political convention It lor,
A word la In order here about
Ike'a "victory" yesterday alter
noon. Here la what happened:
The convention llaell decided (on
an appeal to the Moor) that Be ol
the 91 oonlealcd delegates, moat ol
them Tail men, can not voto on
eating conteala until their own con
tents are deolded. In effect, that
action forbade a CONTESTED del
egate to vole for hlmaelf or lor
any other contested delegate until
bla own alalua haa been decided.
ThlM la the point:
The action that wai taken waa
OPPOSED by the Tail forces. II
waa FAVORED by the Elsenhower
people. Tlie Elsenhower contention
waa upheld by 64 MORE THAN
A MAJORITY of all the delegatea.
It amounted to what U termed
TEST vote. Buch voles come
. often In congreaa on minor amend
' menta to Important bllla. These
mtiior amendmenta may not In
themselves be ol great Importance,
but the way the members divide
en them Is ant to forecast th way
the voting will go on the bill when
11 reaches the point ol final action.
Bo far, the Tall forces have held
control of the Important commit
toe. Including the coninillteea that
pas on delegate contests, but yea
terday'a vol Indicates that In the
pinches they can't control the con
vention Iteelf.
Therein Ilea the significance of
yesterday's vote.
II haa been known all along that
Senator Tail, who alartrd early,
would come Into the convention
with more pledged delegatea than
Oentral JSIaenhower. who atarted
late. Bui at no time haa Senator
Tail's pledged and nslled-down to
tal ol delegates approached the (04
necessary to nominal on the flral
ballot. There haa been a twilight
tone ol delegates who might go
llhtr way Mr. Tall, hoping; to
appeal to th more or leas univer
sal desire to b on the winning
aide, has adopted an altitude of
complete confidence with tho Idea
ol pulling then band-wagon people

Th Ike forces, also aware of this
fundamental urge to back a win
ner, have stressed the contention
lhal General Elsenhower will be a
far mor certain winner next No
vember, hoping that when the last
chip go down the desire to nam
a winner In November will pull
enough wobbly delegatea over to

Doubt Shrouds
Ball of Fire
By WALLACE MYERS
Was It a meteor which flashed
a fiery trail across Northwest skies
yesterday morning? Persons In
five stales reported seeing the mys
terious object; all agreed there
was a ball of fire and some stub
bornly claimed there was a. body
ol sorts behind the streaking lire
ball.
The brilliant object waa seen from
Waiihlngton. Idaho. Oregon. Cali
fornia and Nevada, about 10:30
yesterday morning. ,
Popular opinion today waa that
It was a meteor but two person
who sighted the object think It could
have been some type of aircraft.
possibly a rocxet.
GENERAL AREA
Most reports ol th dsxzllng aer
ial speeder came from the general
area where the California, Oregon
and Nevada slate lines meet, south
and east of Lakevlew.
The object, whether meteor or
aircraft, waa seen to burn Itself
out over that area and apparently
disintegrated.
Two witnesses who saw the ob
ject from widely separated points,
said they believed something
crashed Into the Northern Nevada
mountains. A crew of Modoc Coun
ty road workers, said they watched
the waters of Upper Lake, near
Fort Bldwell, boll furiously at one
spot for about 30 minutes after
something apparently plummeted
Into the lake.
The two persona who thought
something hit In Uie Nevada moun
tains were Jerry O'Callaghan. Fort
Bldwell rancher, and Don Hicks,
Surprise Valley Rural Electrifica
tion Corporation worker. O'Callag
han witnessed the spectacle from
a point about 16 miles south of
Ihe Oregon line In Nevada. Hicks
was working on a power line about
one mile north of Cedarvllle.
Anolhor witness was Paul Bow
man, forest lookout on Schonchln
Biiltc, In the Lsva Beds National
Monument.
AGREEMENT
All these persons remarked about
the object's brilliance, all said It
appeared to be traveling toward
Uie northrast and all timed II
about 10:30 a.m.
O'Callaghan said there appeared
to be a "rocket-like" body behind
the ball of fire. Russ Oliver, ol
Madeline, Cnllf., said he saw an
"arrow-shaped" body behind the
flrebnll.

did not take advantage of their
numerical- superiority. Leaders
said all actions were fully agreed
on by absent GOP leaders either
in advance or by long distance
telephone calls.
In the House were about 60 Dem
ocrats, 7 Republicans; in the Sen
ate 11 Democrats and two Repub
licans. The House has a total of
435 members (233 Democrats, 201
Republicans, one Independent) and
the Senate 96 ( 50 Democrats and
46 Republicans).
CONTROVERSY
Major controversy centered
around the $11,793,776,339 supple
mental money bill, which carries
$2,898,800,000 for the atomic pro
jects, $6,031,947,750 lor loreign aid,
and $2,140,000,000 for globe-circling
military construction projects.
When the Senate and House first
deadlocked over the measure,
arguing into the early hours Sun
day morning, the bill provided only
$1,450,000,000 in atomic funds. This
was later boosted to two billions
by Uie House as a compromise
move but administration leaders
in the Senate insisted on more.
The original bill also contained
a rider that many including Uie
President interpreted as bar
ring the Atomic Energy Commis
sion (AEC) from storting any pro
jects it didn't have Uie money to
complete.
RETAIN CURB
As finally passed, the spending
curb was retained in the bill. But
opponents of the rider said its ef
fect was offset by the additional
$898,000,000 voted Monday for the
atomic commission,
AEC Chairman Gordon Dean
agreed. He wrote Democratic
lcuder McFarland of Arteona that
"we could proceed (with our pro
giom) under a bill which appro
priated such a sum ($2,898,800,000
total)."
Also resolved was a secondary
dispute over a $584,061,600 rivers
and harbors and flood control bill
which Congress sent to the White
House just before it adjourned.
Sens. Mnybank (D-SC) and Olin
Johnston (D-SC) had threatened to
filibuster against it because the
House had erased four million dol
lars the Senate had approved for
the Hartwell Dam on the Savan
nah River between South Carolina
and Georgia.
They dropped their fight, how
ever, after the supplemental ap
propriation bill was amended to
request the AEC to Investigate the
importance of the dam to the
giant Savannah River atomic plant
and submit a report to Uie next
session of Congress.

Delegation
From Florida
By JACK BELL
CONVENTION HALL. CHICAGO
Wl The Taft-Eisenhower batU
for the GOP presidential nomina
tion came to a crucial point Tues
day with rival claimants to 93 dis
puted convention seats slugging It
out toward a final decision.
By nightfall, these contests
should be settled and the lines
drawn mpre firmly between sup
porters of Sen. Robert A. Taft and
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower among
me 1.200 delegates to una zsta re
publican convention.
The scrap over these 93 seats,
involving delegations from seven
states, was before the convention
Credentials Committee in the Con
gress hotel in downtown Chicago.
Its first decision was a unani
mous one in favor of seating a'
predominantly pro-Tall delegation
of 18 from Florida.
Here In Uie convention hall It
self, the delegates, who cheered
Gen. Douglas MacArthur's lam
basting of the Truman administra
tion in the keynote speech Monday
night, were slow to assemble.
More speeches and little business
were on tap.
However, the convention got und
er way at 10:15 s. m. PDT.
BRIDGES
Styles Bridges. Reoubllcan lead
er in Uie Senate, gave a plea for"
unity. He said the GOP must patch
up party quarrels or "almost cer
tainly go down to defeat in No
vember." Taft and Elsenhower themselves
were visiting with delegates in
their hotels still trying to harv
est more support.
There were signs that Elsen
hower might be chipping; away at
Uie delegate strength, Taft baa.
counted on.
Two New York City delegates.
who ' had been supporting Taft,
announced they had decided to vote
for Eisenhower.
Both, sides were wooing Gov.

Temporary Chairman Walter S.
Hallinan told Uie convention the
Credentials Committee would not
get through with its hearing in time
to report to Uie convention Tues
day. INVITATION
At Warren's Invitation. Taft and
Harold Stassen, also bidding for
Uie presidential nomination, met
with the California delegation.
Eisenhower is to talk with them
Wednesday.
Taft and Stassen each told ther
Calil'ornlans they hoped the party
wouia remain united and tnat all
factions would work to elect the
presidential nominee, whoever he
is.
Stassen said:
"If it should happen that your:
governor should receive that magic
number 604 (vote required for
nomination) I would support hurt
and I am confident he would win
in November."
But Stassen added in the next
breath: "I am confident I could
win In November."
Eisenhower had breakfast with
the 26-vote Missouri delegation and,
in a little talk, appealed for har
mony and for "kicking the Dem
ocrats so far November. 4 that it'll
take them 20 years to get back."
He also met later with Uie Ne
braska delegation and again ap
pealed for unity, telling them:
"I want to see the Republican
party go in there like a knight in
shining armor."
One of the Nebraska delegates
asked the general whether he had
seen the foreign plank approved
by a platform subcommittee.

CHICAGO W) Chairman Guy
Gabrielson had to call the Oregon
delegation to order at the Repub

The delegation, led by Gov.
Douglas McKay, was whooping it
up for Gen. Dwight Elsenhower
during debate on the rules change.
Gabrielson mentioned Uie delega
tion by name and asked It to be
more orderly.
The rules change, which passed
658 to 548 favored Eisenhower.
McKay, when asked to comment
on the vote, said it was "wonder
ful." The 18 Oregon delegates are
pledged to Elsenhower and the
Oregon vote on the pro-Elsenhower
rules change was unanimous.
