TRUMAN LEADS
PAPERS POLL

II want 10 vote for the best
man, and who can tell who
that iS," was the opinion Of
most Of the undecided voters
polled this past week on their
choice for president.
In the sample poll last week,
81 o fthe i49 voters were unde.
elded a. 10 whom they would
vote for. Sixty three Of the 40
polled were decidedly for Tru-
man. n v0tsrs were for Dewey,
and eight were for Wallace.
Political speeches and cam.
psiEns seemed 70 change OF make
up peoples minds very little.
With % many voters undecided,
there Is . strong probability that
SOfha Of them could bo Swayed,
although most Of those pollsd
stated that ths presence Of the
three candidates here could and
did not have any any bearing on
their presidential choice.
Ono thing 10 sure--mOrs voters
are going 20 scratch hair and turn
grey over this campaign than
they have for . long time. And II
won't be because the party they
want In power h not getting In

least, have them guessing.
Or studying.
What candidates recently have
not said. ~ well ~ what thsy
have said, and are saying, have

Or 10 the goal line.

have decided on Truman Rrs
those who have pulled away

grew. Reasons Tor this chang,
are!

Wallace 10 q great man, buI

mon on hln eohi.taii."
Wallace IL linked, feel. with
the Communist. and has no 9th,
or strength behind him"
IL I thought Wallace had 4
chance. I'd vote for him, but
since he has no chance, I ahall
vote for Truman"
Truman has stuck his neck
out for ~ and We should support
him"
Those who stuck by Wallace
reasoned that Wallace wAS "foI
peace. that Wallace had chai.

Those many voters who were
uncertain and were making az

Crisis in Yugos|avia
by the Associated Press

LONDON, June 26.-The Man
chester Guardians London dip
lomatic correspondent wrote today
that reports from Southeastern
Europe strongly suggest that a
serious political crisis has arisen In
Yugoslavia"
Marshal Tito's relations with
Moscow are believed to be strained,
largely because of conflicting views
on relations with the West" the
newspaper said. Even the question
Of Tito's whereabouts is being dis
cussed
"It is believed that the Yugoslav
situation was on the agenda of the
Warsaw meeting Of foreign ministers
from the Eastern European states.
From Budapest come further in
dications of the crisis in Yugoslavia.
It is learned that the only news
paper to take notice of 1itos BIRTH
day was one opposition paper, which,
apparently. had not heard of the
troubles in the neighboring country
and published a short article.
"a telegram conveying good
wishes from Hungary's non-Com-
munist Prime Minister was held up
and withdrawn from the wireless
bulletins. There were no Yugoslav
representatives at the recent Con-
gress for the fusion of the Hun
garian Communists and Socialists.
Condolences of similar nature
are also reported from other East
European capitals"
