suits were:

LaGuardia 10, Edward Stettinius

Farley 096, Alben Barley O%o,
William Douglas 0%o.
Wallace Popular
Although Ickes, Eisenhower and
LaGuardia are long time favorites
of Negroes, they did not win much
support because in the choice be-
tween them and Wallace, the Sec
rotary of Commerce is much more
popular. He has very strong hold
on the Negro voters because of his
Incorporating stand in the past
as champion of the race and the
common man"
On the COP side the question
was: What Republican would you
like to see nominated for Presi-
dent in 1882, The tally showed:
Thomas E. Dewey 62q6, Harold
Stassen 1870, Dwight Eisenhower
go, Douglas Macarthur 40, John
Bricker go, Arthur Vandenburg
2%d, Earl Warren go, Eric John
ston 10, Leverett Saltonstall ia,
Dwight Green 90, Robert Taft
096.
Dewey has won much favor
among Negroes since the last pres
idential election, especially because
OF the enactment of a state law
against discrimination in New
York. Stassen on the other hand
while known as a liberal to many,
is relatively an unknown on the
Negro problem and in his home
state of Minnesota has some OPP
position from Negroes because of
his failure to take a strong stand
on racial issues.
