Russell Expected 10 Gain
Edge in Alabama TODAY
BY the Asseeiutsd Press

BIRMINGHAM. Ala. June s.
Today's runoff primary may give
Russell Of Georgia a one-delegate
lead over Senator Kefauver for
Alabama votes at the Democratic
National Convention.
The best the Tennessee Demo-
crat can hope for is a TT split
with Senator Russell for delegates
pledged at the Chicago conven-
ton.
The deciding race is in the
4th congressional district, where
the sole remaining Alabama con-
vention delegate will be elected.
Election Of Ira Armstrong of
Talladega-an announced Rus
sell backer-would give the
Georgian an 81 lead.
The other candidate, former
State Senator Tom Blake Howle
Of Admission. also "leans" toward
Senator Russell but is unpledged.
His election would continue the
TT delegate deadlock.
Fourteen of Alabama's % con-
vention votes are divided evenly
between Senator Russell and
Senator Kefauver. Seven others
are unpledged.
Voting hourse are from 3 am.
(CST) to 5 pm. In rural COM
munities and 8 am. to 8 pm. in
the cities.

Mississippi 6. 0. P.
To Send ; Delegations
BY the Assoeiossd Press

JACKSON. Miss. June 3.-Mis-
sissippi Republicans will send
three delegations to the national
convention in July. each claiming
the right to cast the States five
votes.
One group will back Senator
Taft Of Ohio for the presidential
nomination, another Gen. Eisen-
hover and the third will be unin-
structed, but with Eisenhower
leanings.
Two delegations belong to the
Lilly White" faction, so-called
because it is composed principally
Of white Republicans. It is the
only Republican group recognized
by the State of Mississippi.
The faction split at its State
convention last night. A group
claiming to represent about one
third Of the convention delegates
walked out with the announce
ment that its i've votes would be
pledged to Gen. Eisenhower.
The other delegates voted to
send an uninstructed delegation
to the national convention. Some
Of these delegates, however, were
sympathetic to the general.
The other Mississippi faction,
known as the BLACK and Tan"
because it is composed mostly Of
Negroes. is recognized by the Ma
tional Party as the official Re-
publican Party in Mississippi. At
its April 80 convention it pledged
to support Senator Taft
1t may not be known until the
national convention opens which
delegation will be allowed to cast
Mississippi's votes.

Senator Ellender. Democrat, Of
Louisiana. marshaled all of his
Southern dignity today and de-
clared that he hires neither mus
cle-men nor second-story types.
Two months ago, Senator Ell
lenders Agriculture Committee
did hire some special sleuths to
look for funny business in the
farm program. They found plenty.
They also riled Agriculture Secre-
tary Brannan. personally and pas
sionately.
Secretary Brannan stormed that
the committees investigators were
Just muscle-men, who forcibly
rifled the desk of an Agriculture
official. He also charged the COM

Martin ]. Hudtloff, head Of the
Agriculture Departments Trans

Branch. Secretary Brannan said
the committees detectives used
force to break into Mr.. Hudtloff's
desk and dump his papers out Of
the drawers.
But, according to Senator Ell
lender, Mr.. Hudtloff says it isn't

lender has concluded. "It Is true

Hudtlof as If he might be guilty
of something. They shouldn't have
done that. And it is true that the
investigators ordered every one
else out Of Mr.. Hudtloff's office.
"But Mr.. Hudtlon gave UP his
files willingly. Our men read some
personal letters from Mr.. Hudt-
lofts son. They shouldn't have
done that. But our men didn't
use muscle. Secretary BrannanI
was just miSinformed."
