On the other hand, if Eisenhower

It was fully understood here that
unless Gen. Eisenhower made a firm
statement saying be would not ac-
cept q nomination, he would be
regarded as at least q receptive

Gen. Eisenhower has made it clear
that he does not intend to take any
part in the campaign to elect dele
gates to the Republican National

way still open for his supporters to
work for the selection Of Eisenhower
delegates.
Senator Tobey, Republican, of

become an officer of the Eisenhower

declared his intention to do all he
can to help elect. an Eisenhower
