 Kefauyer took on the Democrat ic machine in New Hampshire, ap- parently wfested away thousands of labor union votes and emerged with a score of roughly 10000 a. gainst Truman's 16,000.
 Eisenhower won all IA Republi- can delegates. Kefauver won all 12 Democratic delegates who have eight convention votes.

fense officials yesterday that hi
will make another attempt this
year to get adequate" funds from
Congress for their national pro.
gram.
Mr.. Truman requested $535 mil
lion for the civil defense admin
istration last year, but Congress
criticizing most aspects of the
program, granted only $74,945, 600
The appropriation was for the f1s-

In an informal talk to nearly
100 civil defense chiefs, the Presi-

cap, but that he had met much
difficulty" in selling Congress on
the program. He said he would
seek "the enthusiastic support" OF
Congress for funds in the next
fiscal year.
The President also emphasized
the need for the United States to
out-produce and out-transport
any potential enemy. Unless we
do. he said. I'VE are whipped to

Mr.. Truman spoke to the de-
fense heads in his Office after
touring the "alert America" civil
defense exhibition in the depart
ment's auditorium and enlisting
himself as a civil defense worker
