HAFA. Israel. April 2l.-A

the Holy Scriptures, found the

crime.
The authorities Of the land OF
Israel had apprehended q caravan
of asses, laden with contraband
from the unfriendly lands of the
Arabs across the River Jordan,
but the smugglers who owned the
asses had disappeared.
A wise policeman read the words
Of the Prophet Isaiah, and in the
third verse of the first chapter
found words which gave him an
idea.
The asses were held for several
days without food and then were
allowed to wander from the po-
lice crib. The starved and bray
ing beasts led the policeman to

An Associated Press poll Of Al
Eof the 48 governors disclosed yes
Iterday that:
l. Gen. Eisenhower is the most
popular Presidential choice of Re-
publican State executives.
2. Most Democratic governors
are uncertain whether President
Truman will run again. but he will
have strong party support-some
| of it in the South-if he does.
3. Leaders of both parties believe
there is small likelihood of any
effective Republican Southern
Democratic coalition in 1852.
The Is Republican governors
were asked land % replied In one
form or another-the following
Questions:
/. Whom do you favor for the
1852 presidential nomination?
2. Do you think President Tru-
imam will be his opponent?

Nine Favor Eisenhower.
OF the % Republicans who an
swered poll queries, nine of them
said they favor Gen. Eisenhower
for the nomination.
Two are backing Senator Robert
A. Taft of Ohio. one supports Gen.
Macarthur and one backs Harold
E. StasSen, former Minnesota Gov
lernor.
Utah's outspoken Gov. J. Brack-
en- Lee was the one who came out
for Gen. Macarthur. Some Mac
Arthur for President clubs have
been formed, but the generals II
years apparently have made it un-
likely there will be any substantial
presidential boom for him.
Gov. Lee called Gen. MacAr-
thurs removal from command by
President Truman "a major trag-
edy." The Utah Governor pre-
dicted that Mr.. Truman will seek
another term.
Eight Say It's Too Early.
Eight Republican Governors said
it was too early to make any deci-
sion on a presidential candidate.
One mentioned Gen. Eisenhower
and Mr.. Stassen as equal possibili-
ties and one Governor listed Mr.
Stassen, Senator Taft, Gen. Eisen-
hover. Gov. Thomas e. Dewey of
New York and Gov. Earl Warren
of California as possible candi-
dates.

the Presidential contest, despite
the defections from Mr.. Truman,
in 1948.
Lost Votes on Civil Rights.
That year Mr.. Truman lost se
electoral votes in the South to the
States Rights ticket on the civil
rights issue.
Twelve Of the Republican Gov
ernors answered mo" In various
forms to question No. 3. Seven
said "yes," with some Of them
basing their prediction on the pos
sibility that Mr.. Truman will run
again or that the Democrats will
nominate a cleft wing" ticket.
Three Republican Governors
wouldn't guess one way or the
other and another disposed Of tht
issue by predicting that the GOF
will win the presidency whether
there is coalition or not.
The % Democratic Governors
were asked the following ques-
tiqnS:
/. Do you believe President Tru-
man will run again?
2. Will you support him for the
nomination?
3. If not. who would be your
choice?
4. If MIR. Truman were the nom
inee, would there be any appreci-
able sentiment in your State for
a coalition with the Republicans
for a States Rights ticket?
10 Can't Make Guess.
Ten Of the 18 Democratic gov
ernors who answered the poll said
they can't guess yet whether
President Truman will run again
Five said they are pretty sure
that the party will have some
other candidate and only two were
willing to say that he thinks Mr..
Truman is preparing to seek an
other term. Two refused to an
swer the question.
If the President does run, nine
of the governors said they will
support him, seven said they can't
decide any such question until
later and two wouldn't answer
lat all.
Not one was willing to say now
that he would oppose the Presi-
dent if Mr.. Truman were the
party nominee.
OF seven Southern governors
who answered in the poll, two
said they would back Mr.. Truman
if he were the nominee. The other
five either said they don't know
what they would do or refused to
answer.
The Democratic governors who
replied to question No. 8 indicated
no outstanding choice for a party
nominee if Mr.. Truman isn't a
candidate again.
Two Of them mentioned Gen
Eisenhower. one picked Senator
Douglas Of Illinois, another said
he would take either Senator
Douglas or Senator Anderson OF
New Mexico, one backed Senator
Russell of Georgia and one men,
toned Chief Justice Fred Vinson
Have No Favorites.
The rest said they don't have
any favorites at this time or re-
fused to disclose their views.
On the issue of a coalition with
the Republicans, or the emergence
OF another States Right ticket, the
Democratic governors were pretty
emphatic.
Twelve of them said there would
be no coalition. four said they
don't know and two declined to
answer that question.
Most of the governors who an
Swered the poll didn't want to be
