afford to be calm about the kind
of support he gives Gen. Eisen.
hover. He is one of those fortunate
men who no longer has to be
troubled by ambition.
He has abandoned hope for the
one job he desired above all
others: the presidency. It's un-
likely Eisenhower. if the general
wins, could offer Taft any other
spot ne likes as well as his present
job in the Senate.
No other job would give him
such a forum for his views and
opinions, which he likes to express.
And he has a following which
shares his views.
His Senate job-he was elected
in 1850 to a Six-year term-is safe
for another four years. He's So
now.
The fact that the majority of
the Republican party, as repre-
scented by delegates to the National
Convention. turned him down in
favor of Eisenhower doesn't neces-
sarily mean the majority doesn't
share his views.
1t may have chosen the general
because it thought he had better
chance of winning in November,
although the party has turned Taft
down three times now-in 1910, in
194S and in 1952-for crack at the
presidency.

beating the bushes for the man
who beat him in Chicago, Taft said
he wants to talk with the general
to learn his views and what he'd
do if elected.
This heSitancy of Taft's leaves
the door open for him to decline
such a speaking tour if he doesn't
hear from Eisenhower what he
wants to hear.
If Taft stays out of it and Eisen.
hover wins, the generals support
erS will. it seems sure, try to topple
Taft from his present position of
Republican leader in the Senate.
If Eisenhower makes commit
ments TO Taft and then goes on TO
win, with Taft'S help, Taft would
be in better position to keep his
Senate leadership post.

Wisconsin
Votes Today
On Mccarthy
Rx DON WHITEHEAD

MILWAUKEE, Up - Wisconsin
voters, perhaps one million strong,
went to the polls today to write
an end-or fresh start-to the
stormy political career of COP
Sen. Joseph r. Mccarthy.
The prospect of warm weather
was expected to boost the normal
vote total by about 400, 900 in this
primary election which has gen,
Grated bitterness and controversy
across the nation.
The states 1924 polling places
were due to open about s a. M,
and some of them were to remain
open as late as p. m.
The issue at stake was the meth
DDS used by Mccarthy in his drive
against the Communists he claimed
were in the Democratic admins
tration. Some people saw this cam
paign as the highest type of
"Americanism." Others smear"
/ campaign reckleSsly tainting the
characters of innocent people.
McCarthy's chief opponent was
Leonard Schmitt, an upstate attor-
ney who relied on marathon radio
talks to carry his anti-McCarthy
message to the people of Wisconsin
Four other opponents weren't ex-
pected to be any real factor.
Mccarthy was favored to win
his second senatorial nomination.
The unknown factor in the race
was this:
How many Democrats had
switched their vote to support the
anti-McCarthy Republicans?
Wisconsin election laws permit
such croSS-voting because voters
are not required to register by
party affiliation.
A trend in the voting might not
develop until after midnight due to
a slow count resulting from long
lists of candidates seeking local
offices, In Milwaukee County alone
there are rs candidates running for
the office of sheriff.
Mccarthy was trying to get a
big majority as a vote of conf
dence" in his charges that sub
versive influences are at work in
the Democratic administration. He
charged Schmitt and others had
used Communist type" smear tao
! ties against him.
In a radio broadcast last night,
Mccarthy said: They are trying
to prove they can make a SCARED
political corpse of anyone who
dares to expose Communists in
government"
Schmitt countered with a state
ment saying:
Il believe I have brought the
issue of McCarthy's deplorable rec
ord to the people of Wisconsin.
l believe with all my heart that
Mccarthy represents a great poten-
tial evil to Wisconsin and to the
nation and hope that every voter
in Wisconsin will 90 to the polls
Tuesday to express himself on this
vital question"
On the Democratic side, Henry
Reuss of Milwaukee was battling
Thomas Fairchild of Verona, form
er state attorney general, for the
Democratic senatorial nomination.
Reuss had the endorsement of
the state CLIO. But State Clio Pres
ident Herman Steffes urged men,
bers of his union voting in the
COP primary to support Schmitt
against Mccarthy.
Steffes said: Though we still
are for Reuss in this coming cam
paign. we have to be realistic and
realize that a lot of our people,
for reasons of their own, are going
to vote in the Republican pri-
mary"
