Mckinney Arrives
Akey West for Talk
With The President
By Joseph A. Fox
Siar Staff CORRESPONDENT

KEY WEST, Fla. Mar. IT,
President Truman was joined
here today by Democratic Nation
al Chairman Frank e. Mckinney
for. a two-day visit, but White
House Press Secretary Joseph
Short said he did not expect it
to result in any announcement
about Mr.. Truman's intentions re-
garding another race.
Before Mr.. Truman left Wash
ington 10 days ago he said that
he would not reveal his intentions
during hts three-week stay here,
and Mr.. Short said that so far
as he knows. that still holds good.
Arrives on Cruiser.
Mr.. Mckinney showed up in
midmorning on a 50-foot cabin
cruiser aboard which he has been
loaf1ng through Florida waters for
several days. After the craft was
tied up at the Naval Base he
joined President Truman, who al
ready was taking his morning dip
at Truman Beach, a mile or so
away.
Mr.. Short said that he did not
know what the President and
party chairman would talk about,
but he did not think that they
would go over the speech the
President is to make at the JEFF
ferson-Jackson dinner in Wash
ington, March 90.
He added that he did not believe
the drafting Of the speech had
progressed far enough for joint
study.
Visits Little White House.
Mr.. Mckinney is quartered at
the little White House.
1t had been announced earlier
that the President would be Joined
here by the committee chief, but
Mr.. McKinney's arrival was not
known generally until Mr.. Short
announced his presence here at
q noon news conference.
The press secretary said that
he would ask Mr.. Mckinney to see
reporters-the Presidential habit
being "out of bounds" except
through special arrangements.

the outcome Of the Wisconsin and
Illinois primaries.
New Hampshire was hand
picked for the General, who was
backed by the Governor. an ex-
Governor, Senator Tobey. Re-
publican. Of New Hampshire. and
two Congressmen ~ the entire
State Republican machine was
firmly behind him. ! was sur
Iprised to see Taft get as many
votes as he did"
Psychological Effect Seen.
Senator Dworshak Of Idaho
summed it up this way:
"The results of the New Hamp-
shire primary will have q psy-
Geological effect on contests for
the presidential nomination In
July. Reports indicate that every
known device for getting pub
licity was utilized and even OUT
side campaigners invaded the
State. ...
1T would have been extremely
unusual If Senator Taft had been
able to defeat Gov. Adams and his
Republican administration. which
went all out for Gen. Eisenhower.
The primary was not merely q
fight between Taft and the Gem
|eral. but also one between the
Ohio Senator and the Republican
organization of the State"
Senator Malone of Nevada
termed Senator Taft's showing In
New Hampshire phenomenal. +"
He added:
Senator Taft had no help and
went into a strange State. He got
40 per cent Of the Republican vote
after spending only three days in
the State while most Of the New
Hampshire Republican leaders
were against him."

from whom you borrowed some
Of that money?
A. I have no recollection Of it.
Never Was Treated.
Senator Neely-Is 1t q matter
Of your not reco1lecting or is it a
matter Of your not wanting to
tell the committee the facts Of
this case.
A. No. sir. 1t is not.
Senator Neely-You have no
difficulty with your memory, have
you? Never had to be treated
for anything like that, have you?
A. No. sir.
Senator Neely - Lieutenant,
can't you. see that you are falling
to give the committee any ex-
planation at all, which, to say
the least. must be highly and
alarmingly suspicious.
A. ! don't recall those deposits.
Senator Neely-I don't know
whether or not I am breaking any
condolences. but I think I ought to
tell you now that this committee
has several affidavits Of cash paid
to you by these dope peddlers for
protection and ! think you owe
it to yourself TO make that ex-
PLANTATION.
Denies Payment BY Peddlers.
A. May / say that / have never
been paid by any dope peddler.
Senator Neely.-You win have
to make q better explanation than
that TO convince the committee
that you are telling the truth.
Now here are deposits aggregate
ing $2.735 with the remarkable
coincidence Of dates on which you
are making these deposits month
after month. Then running into
1949. apparently the same thing
occurred in the following year.
Not quite to the. same extent but
with the same chronological reg
ularity. Now the committee
wants TO give you an opportunity
and Q fun opportunity to make

Gates President Truman's political
goose Is cooked. But they say 1t

Most Of them replied that Sena-
tor Taft's chances weren't hurt
much. II at all. and q few said
they thought "Mr. Republican"
did well. although Eisenhower
supporters have been claiming an
important victory.
Says Truman Is Repudiated,
Senator Ecton Of Montana told
10 reporter:
Tne primary was not Signif-
cant as far as the Republican
candidates are concerned. But it
proved that the people viii repu-
ldiate President Truman and his
administration. The New Hamp-
shire voters who still are in the
Democratic Party repudiated the
administration by going for q
freshman Senator like Kefauver
lin preference to the President
Senator Watkins Of Utah, who
has announced support for Sem
Iator Taft. said:
"Most significant were the small
vote for Truman and the small
Democratic vote, which show that
the Truman administration Is at

New Hampshire Race Proves

The results of the Taft -Eisen-
hover contest don't settle any
thing, In my opinion, although
they probably will boost the mo-
lrale Of the Eisenhower forces and
make the Taft workers work
harder.
l Straw votes among delegates
lin Republican county conventions
being held now show that Taft is
the fayorite In Utah"
Look to Middle West.
Senators Bennett Of Utah and
Welker Of Idaho believe Illinois
land wisconsin primaries will have
more significance than the New
Hampshire voting.
"Tne Illinois primary would be
much more significant II Taft
should be beaten there" Senator
Bennett said. THE situation in
Illinois is the reverse Of that in
New Hampshire, where it was as
Isumed that Gen. Eisenhower
would win.
Both Taft and Eisenhower may
take comfort from results Of the
New Hampshire primary-Eisen
hover the most" he added. Taft
knew In the beginning he was
going to be beaten in New Hamp-
shire. His appearance there led
some people to believe he might
win. I feel he got surprising
vote"
Says State Was Hand Picked.

was. not committed to any presi-
DENTAL aspirant, commented:

Ipected no answer and got none.

Home Rule
CONTINUED From First Page.)

Is
Board Of Trade by its general
counsel, Edward r. Colladay.
The trade body has questioned
the constitutionality Of delegation
to q city council Of the exclusive
legislation Congress holds over the
District. It has voiced fears adop-
ton Of q home-rule bill would
mean the loss of q Federal pay
ment to the District and has de-
clared there can eb no real self
government here until the District
lis given voting representation in
Congress. Il
There was agreement today be-
tween friends and foes Of the bill
on one point-that the pending
bill is not complete home rule.
Senator Case stated this frank
" in his opening outline and re-
peated 1t later under questioning
by Mr.. Abernethy.
Right Is Reserved. >
The Senator argued, however,
that the bill seeks to give, and he
insisted. it does give, the people
|of Washington "a real voice" in
their city government. He argued
that its enactment would not
|mean the Congress was In any
sense abandoning its constitution
|al responsibility for legislating for
the District. He explained that
the bill specifically reserves to
Congress the right to "step in" to
amend or repeal any act Of the
city council.
Mr.. Abernethy declared Con-
|gress ought to retain control over
the city government saying that
'if you take the Government out
|of the national Capital, the rest Of
the District would vanish. What
this bill does is to set up a Gov
ernment within the Government
and gives the Government q
chance to govern itself, which
seems strange to me-"
The Mississippian said he would
be In favor Of giving citizens Of
the District the right to vote for
President and Vice President but
as to the pending bill for an elect
ed city government he said he
thought the proponents Of the
pending bill would be better OF II
they covered 1t in a proposed
amendment to the Constitution.
In sympathy with Case.
Mr.. Redden said he was Sin
sympathy with many Of the re-
marks Of Senator Case but added
that the District never had asked
for Statehood" although some
here seemed to want the benefits
Of statehood without assuming its
responsibilities.
THE answer to this . MIR. Red
den said, might be q measure for
retrocession Of the District to
Maryland"
Mr.. Auchincloss, author Of q
earlier home rule bill which died
on the 80th Congress. said ques-
tions Of constitutionality had been
upheld by some eminent legal au-
thorities. But he agreed 1t was
"a debatable thing" and Senator
Case said constitutional questions
probably would have to- go to the
courts.

graphed to a Minnesotans-for-

ported states in Minnesota and

Question Of Issues.
1T is important not to waste
votes On write-in names without
delegates in crucial times such as
these. That will only help the op-
position. This is not a matter of
personalities. It is q question Of
issues and objectives. ! would like
to impress upon the Eisenhower

help Eisenhower is to vote for
Stassen in the Tuesday primary"

of Mr.. Stassen, Senator Taft and
