Politics At A Glance
By LOUIS SCHOEN
Thl Week: The Republic Scene
With the Republican National Convention only a little over a
week away, the two majoi Republican Presidential aspirants,
Retired Gen Dwight D. Eisenhower and Ohio s Sen. Robert A.
Taft are slugging it out in a hand to hand battle for delegates.
Sen Estes Kefaaver o' Tennessee, leading Democratic hopeful,
summed up the situation in a nutshell when he compared the Re
publican scrap to a "bar room slugfest." This, of course, appears
as an asset to the Democrats, for the pre-convention split m the
Republican party can easily have an effect on many people who
would have voted Republican in November, but because of a
oitter attitude toward the winner of their party's nomination,
will either refrain from voting or vote Democratic.
Sen. Wayne Morse, popular liberal from Oregon, adequately
illustrates this fact. In a recent speech to a group of Oregon lum
bermen, Morse threatened to bolt the party ranks and back the
Democratic candidate if Taft receives the nomination. Although
Morse is the only prominent Republican who has publicly com
mitted himself in this way, rumors are thick in GOP ranks that
this sort of action may be taken by many if the Ohioan is nom
inated For that matter, with everyone becoming as steamed up
as they are lately, it could easily happen if Eisenhower were
nominated. . , , . ,-
The controversy over the Texas delegates is providing the
biggest spark, and is likely to set off a major fire in Chicago when
the bickering begins over whose delegation should be recognized
on the convention floor. , . , ,
The past week has seen Eisenhower and nis backers scream,
from coast to coast, "Steal!" and "We wuz robbed!" They are
making a major campaign issue of the situation, claiming the
machinery was rigged with Taft supporters. With Gen. Douglas
MacArthur, an avowed Taft-man, as keynote speaker for the July
7 convention, and a number of other Taft backers holding prom
inent convention posts, the Ike-men would really scream, louder
nd longer than ever, if Taft should win the nomination on an
early ballot, or for that matter, if Taft should win the nomination
Sit 3ll
Taft campaign leaders meanwhile, published full page ads
in newspapers throughout the nation Monday, giving what they
called their side Df the story The ads were headed m huge 72
point type, "Hera's What Happened In Texas," and proceeded
o blast the Eisenhower claims, level retaliatory charges at the
Ike-men, and "prove" that the law was on their side.
Eisenhower, meanwhile, appeared Monday night on a nation
wide television hookup, simultaneously with the appearance of
Taft's ads in Tuesday morning's papers throughout the nation.
He blasted what he called the "isolationist forces" in the Repub
lican party, and although he did not specifically mention Taft's
name, he leveled charges- all night which one editor described as
those which "any simpleton could tell" were directed at Taft.
Taft, in the meantime, has expressed greater confidence that
he will win the nomination. He declared in a television broadcast
recently that if he fails to gain the candidacy, 'Til never run for
President again."
'
Meanwhile Democrat Kefauver and Republican Taft got
together for an almost bloody discussion on a television broadcast,
exchanging charges respectively of "isolationist" and "slur."
This writer would like to see such a discussion between Taft
and Eisenhower before the convention. On the other hand, that
would be murder the only thing remaining would be a pool of
blood, surrounded by air stagnant with vulgarities.
