EisenhowerDroft-P Truman
Sure Nominee, Observer Says

Now we come to Gen. Eisenhower.
Of course. he is not going to be
drafted by the Democratic conven-
ton, even If he Is nominated-and
he won't be. Mr.. Truman will be.
Ike will refuse to run and refuse
emphatically.
The campaign to draft Gen. Eisen-
hover is insincere, selfish, with mo-
tives sticking out all over. 1t doesn't
make common sense. Why should
the general spurn a Republican
nomination, when it looks like the
COP has the best chance of win
ming, and then come in and take a
Democratic nomination to salvage
the city bosses and their local tickets
and the new dealers and their frus-
trations?
OF course, he isn't going to do it.
Evening star., 1948-04-16

When the general said he would
have nothing to do with politics,
he meant it. He wrote his state
ment taking himself out Of the
presidential campaign after weeks
of most serious thought and con-
sideration. He meant every word
he put in his letter. He still does.
Reflect on Integrity.
The continued efforts to draft the
general are reflections upon his
sincerity and integrity. He feels this
deeply. All the clamor only makes
him react the other way. He isn't
going to salvage the Republican
Party. Neither is he going to sal
wage the Democratic Party in its
much greater troubles.
The general is one American who
wants to be left alone. Sometime

All diplomatic and official eyes
are turned toward Bogota. Colombia,
for on Tuesday the Ninth Interna-
tional Conference of American
States will get under way. This
important meeting of representa-
tives of the American Republics has
taken many of the diplomats from
embassy row, although most Of the
countries are sending top men in
their home foreign offices.
The delegates will be officially
welcomed at a reception tomorrow
by the President of Colombia, Mari
ano Ospina Perez, and the Foreign
Minister of that country, Laureno
Gomez. There's no doubt that other
parties are planned, for most of
the luggage taken by the delegates
from here contained attire for both
black and white ties. Two fetes
that are customarily given include
one at which the chairman OF the
conference is host and one at which
the delegates are joint hosts.
In addition to official receptions,
the private citizens Of Bogota will
shower hospitality on some OF the
visitors who are their close friends.
The first one of these conferences
was held in this country in 1890 dur
ing the administration of President
Benjamin Harrison and at the instl-
CATION of the then Secretary OF
State, James G. Blaine. But there s
bound to be a great difference in
that first conference and the one
