Delegates for Taft Club
Has 537 Enrolled, Says
Confident Senator
By : stoff corre.pond.n, Of n. stor


CHICAGO, July - Senator
Taft Of Ohio remained confident
of victory today as the curtain
went up on his battle with Gen
Eisenhower for the Republican
presidential nomination.
He opened a new of1ice in the
Stockyard Inn, just across the
street from the convention hall.
Asked yesterday II he has given
any thought to a possible compro-
mise candidate in the event of q
deadlock, the Senator replied:
mo, have not. I expect to be
nominated.
Facing an overflow press con-
ference, the senator held up q
thick batch Of kilograms from
delegates who in the past ten days
have wired him their desire to join
the Delegates for Taft Club.
The senator said he has SIC
telegrams asking to join the club
plus ~ more that he was told by
telephone are in transit. That
would make 537 pledges Of sup
port, with 604 required for nomi-
nation.
Offers Batch for Inspection.
He said the kilograms were all
from delegates, not alternates.
and he invited the press to desig-
nate some one to inspect them.
In addition to the 537 club
members, Senator Taft believes
he. has the support Of enough
others to bring his total strength
up to GOT or SOB. unless some
change their minds.
81 do not think anybody ever
came into a convention with such
support from such a tremendous
number of delegates" the Senator
added.
In estimating that he has at
least GOT votes, Senator Taft said
he did not count any of the
Pennsylvania delegates believed
to be controlled by Gov. Fine. or
any of the uncommitted Michigan
delegates who are expected to fol-
low Arthur. E. Summerf1eld. It
does include. however. the ap-
proximately IS contested dele
gates placed on the temporary roll
by the national committee.
Reversal Is Possible.
Therein lies the most serious
threat to the Taft prospects be-
cause if the Eisenhower sup
porters win their fight for q rule
to keep contested delegates from
voting on final settlement Of the
contests, it could lead to q re-
versal Of the decisions by which
some Eisenhower delegates from
Texas and other Southern States
were excluded from the temporary
roll.
On the eve Of the intra-party
struggle. Senator Taft dashed out
again last night at the New Deal
and Fair Deal. in speech to the
National Federation Of Young
Republican Clubs.
The Senator said there are IS
million young voters who have
never known a Republican Presi-
dent in their adult life. He said
they have come to accept wars as
q normal part Of American goV-
ernment. 5 "a

Appealing Directly to Delegates.
The meeting today was pre-

Cd of Section Is, beginning on
line 8 reads: ethe Governor shall
transfer to and consolidate with
the executive departments Great
ed BY the preceding subsection

This is again intended to give
the Governor arbitrary power to
abrogate laws passed by the Lee
gislature establishing Boards,
Commissions, Authorities, Agen-
cies and other instrumentalities
which the Legislature, acting for
and on behalf Of the people Of the
