CHICAGO, July 1.-THE Dis
trict Of Columbia delegation re-
vealed this morning it would stick
with Senator Taft on the first bal
lot unless Gen. Eisenhower has a
majority when the District is
reached on the roll call.
The District is fourth from the
bottom on the tally sheet.
Asked what the delegation would
do if Gen. Eisenhower needed only
6 votes to put him over, Joseph c.
McGarraghy, District state chair
man, said:
Then we would have to decide
right quickly what to do"
The Districts delegation could
conceivably decide the nomination
But one or more Of the big States
possibly will pass in the hope Of
achieving that honor.

Eisenhower Picks Up
Six Minnesota Votes
Released by Stassen
General Due to Get 10
And Ex-Governor 18
Of Stote's Delegates
BY s.off Correspondent Of The ssar


CHICAGO, July 11.-Gen. Eisen-
hover this morning picked up six
unexpected votes from the Mime
sofa delegation.
Former Gov. Stassen, Mime
sota's favorite son candidate, said
the States 28-man delegation
would cast ID votes for him and
10 votes for Gen. Eisenhower on
the first ballot.
Six delegates this morning asked
and received his permission to
vote for Gen. Eisenhower, Mr..
Stassen said. The agreement to
release the delegates was reached
on "a man to man basis" he said.
Mr.. Stassen said 18 of the
States delegates have expressed
their intention to vote for me on
the first and continuing ballots"
He has no intention of with
drawing from the race for the
G. o. P. presidential nomination,
Mr.. StaSsen said. His chances for
nomination as a dark horse can
didate will increase if a deadlock
develops between Gen. Eisenhower
and Senator Taft, he said.
The former Governor added
that he had entered into mo
deals, commitments or coalitions
whatever" with either of the lead
ing candidates. 81 have never
operated that way in my entire
political life," he said, 'and
never shall"
Earlier, Mr.. Stassen had con-
ferred with Gen. Eisenhower and
Senator Taft.

Dirksen, Mundt and Judd
Mentioned for Vice Presidency
Eisenhower-Tuft or Tuft-Eisenhower
Ticket Proposed by Smith of New Jersey

would win the presidential nomi-
nation. The idea is that either
of them might help restore har-
mony after the Taft Eisenhower
fight.
But Senator Dirksen made a
personal attack on Gov. Thomas
E. Dewey of New York in his
speech nominating Senator Robert
A. Taft. and the New York Gov
ernor. a leader in the Eisenhower
camp, may rule him out.
Judd Speeches Impressive.
Mr.. Judd impressed many dele
gates in two speeches to the con-
vention. His foreign views appear
in general harmony with those Of
Gen. Eisenhower.
Boosters of Senator Smith have
suggested that an Eastern woman
be put on the ticket for the first
time in the party's history to draw
possible support from the Eastern
States and to mollify women who
didn't like a consention rule up
setting the present equal repre-
sentation Of the sexes on the
G. o. p. National Committee.
/ Others mentioned for the vice
nomination included
two Governors who have Stanch-
ly supported Eisenhower-Dan
Thornton Of Colorado, Arthur B.
Langlie of. Washington.
Senator II. Alexander Smith OF
New Jersey indicated he has pro-
posed to Gen. Eisenhower that. If
nominated, he agrees to have
Senator Taft serve as his running
mate. A reverse offer would give
Gen. Eisenhower second billing
If Senator Taft won the top call.
Senator Smith made the pro-
posal in bid to restore party
unity. but there was no reason
to believe either Senator Taft or
Gen. Eisenhower would settle for
the vice presidential spot.
Neither Gen. Eisenhower nor
Senator Taft gave any indication
whom he might pick for the No.
2 spot If he had the picking to do.
It might easily be some one whose
name has not figured In the spec
ulation to date.

CHICAGO. July 11.-Names OF
a number of members of Con-
gress and State Governors entered
into speculation over vice presi-
dental possibilities today.
While by custom, the party's
presidential candidate has the
final word in selecting his team
mate, delegates were far from re-
|luctant to offer advance advice.
Joseph w. Martin, jr.. conven-
ton chairman, told newsmen he
knew of no general agreement at
this time on any one for Vice
President.
They'll let the presidential
candidate name him." Mr.. Martin
added. "They always do"
MIR. Martin said he assumed
that for geographical reasons the
vice presidential nominee would
come from the Midwest or the
East.
Dirksen Possibility.
Mentioned by others as pos
sibilities in this connection were
Senator Dirksen Of Illinois. Sena-
tor Margaret Chase Smith Of
Maine, Senator Mundt Of South
Dakota and Representative Judd
|of Minnesota.
But names of possible choices
from other sections were men
toned, too.
Senator Nixon of California was
one of these-he might help swing

presidential aspirant or another,

total of 614-10 more than al
majority.
Immediately, there was a tre-
mendous roar of applause from
the delegates.
Senator Taft of Ohio, the sec
ond man. had 500 votes at that
time. Gov. Warren of California
had 81 and Stassen had 20 and
Gen. Macarthur had 10.
Chairman Martin called the
convention to order at 1882 am.
Chicago time), an hour and 2
minutes late. and just under the
hardness record for the first
session. which was an hour and
3 minutes late getting under way.
The morning prayer was de-
livered by DR.. Louis L. Mann of
Chicago's Sinai Temple.
Help us so to live" he prayed,
"that our deeds will not be un-
worthy Of the sacrifices and de-
votion of the founders of our
Republic"
The convention then began
looking like a prize fight.
Before the main event-tte bal
loting-Chairman Martin had the
various Republican leaders take
a bow.
The big moment came at 11:48
am, when Mr.. Martin said:
'The secretary will call the roll
for the nomination of President
Of the United States"
Roll Call Starts.
Mrs. Katherine G. Howard of
Massachusetts,, G. o. P. National
Committee secretary, opened the
roll call.
Senator Taft got the first boost.
Alabama gave him 9 votes and
cast for Gen. Eisenhower.
The vote continued smoothly
until Florida was called. A de-
mand was made to poll the Florida
delegates. Each name was called
so that each delegate could say
publicly which candidate he pre-
ferred.
At this point, the lines showed
little change from the votes on the
earlier tests in the convention, ex-
cept that there were scattering
votes for Gen. Macarthur and Mr..
Stassen. The California delega-
ton gave all it's 70 votes to Gov.
Warren.
Galleries Half Filled.
The galleries were a little more
than half filled.
The balloting was filled with the
most suspense and was the most
significant part Of the national
convention. But it fell far short
of last nights wild demonstrations
when the candidates were put into
nomination.
There was silence when Illinois
turn came today-but only be-
cause Senator Dirksen's micro
phone wouldn't work. He stepped
across the aisle and used that of
Missouri to cast SO votes for Sem
ator Taft and one for Gen. Eisen-
hover.
