Vermont COP. Picks
Full Eisenhower Slate
In CIear-Cut Victory

MONTPELIER, VT, May IT.
Gen. Eisenhower picked up IL
more votes today in his bid for
nomination at the Chicago con-
vention as the Vermont COP con-
vention elected a full slate favor
able and pledged to him.
The Eisenhower forces scored a
Iclear-cut victory-for the IL can
didates, who had come out for
him even before town caucuses,
were swept into convention seats
by three-to-one majorities.
In the 27-man field for dele
gates to Chicago, all but one of
the pro-Eisenhower candidates
polled more than 600 votes. There
were 861 State delegates present.
Ex-GOv. Proctor Led Field.
Former Gov. Mortimer r. Proc
tor led the field with 679 votes.
The 18th man on the Eisenhower
slate. which was nominated as a
group, received 584 votes.
A. Luke Crispe, Vermont cam
paign manager for Senator Robert
A. Taft, had only five candidates
in the fight favorable to the
Ohioans. The top Taft man got
231 votes while Mr.. Crispe him
self received 211. The remainder
of the unsuccessful candidates
had not announced what Presi-
Dental candidates they favored.
Upset Tradition.
Vermont additionally sends it's
delegates to national conventions
unpledged and uninStructed but
Deane Davis, president of the
National Life Insurance Co., who
nominated the Eisenhower slate,
suggested the convention depart
from tradition this time.
AS soon as the delegate result
had been announced, the conven-
ton approved a resolution pledg-
ing the group to Eisenhower.

regulation Of utilities, which
means that Alexandria, Arlington,
Fairfax and Falls Church by their
higher utility rates are subsidiz-
ing lower rates in other parts of
Virginia"
Mr.. Campbell said regulation
by compact between Maryland,
Virginia and the District as pro-
posed by Arlington's delegation to
the Virginia General Assembly
last winter, would not be a prac-
teal solution to the problem. He
said the three jurisdictions could
never get together on an agree
able compact.

the slow count, handed the full
block of 10 G. o. P. National Con-
vention delegates to Gen. Eisen-
hover with a mighty popular vote
His total was running at about
10 per cent of the Republican
turnout for yesterdays balloting
| Senator Kefauver, with no &C
tive opposition. came up with "a
per cent of the Democratic tally
as a reward for getting out to
meet the voters in his folksy way
He also got all IL Democratic
delegates as high man in the pref
erential polling. Two unwilling
candidates, Justice William O.
Douglas and Illinois Gov. Adlai
Stevenson, shared what was left
of the Democratic vote.
Gov. Warren Trials.
CALIFORNIA; Gov. Earl Warren
friendly neighbor who cam
paigned up and down the green
hilled State, was the only other
Republican hopeful to make any
kind of a Showing-and he was
far behind Eisenhower. Senator
Robert A. Taft of Ohio did not
enter the primary, and drew a
little Write-in support he did not
seek.
Eisenhower delegates rebuffed
eight others who lodged the Gus
tomary pledge to cast their con-
vention ballot for the popularity
poll winner. These eight sup
possedly were friendly to Senator
Taft. Three said they were.
Ex.-Gov. Harold E. Stassen
made a poor showing compared
with the 100000 votes he got in
his 1948 Oregon primary fight
against winning Gov. Thomas E
Dewey of New York. In fact, both
Gen. Douglas Macarthur and
Senator Wayne Morse of Oregon
who opposed their candidates.,
topped Mr.. Stassen.
Unofficial Count.
Here's the unofficial count from
1872 of the States 2,269 precincts;
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES, Ill.,
906; Macarthur, 12,113; Morse,
$40; Schneider, 289; Stassen,
4,753; Warren, q, 1852; Taft write
i'm, 3,489.
Kefauver. 102,610; Douglas, d.
1856; Stevenson, 1899.
Gen. Eisenhower and Senator
Kefauver carried all SO counties.
The early Taft write-in vote was
only a reflection of his ultimate
total: many precincts held back
counting write-ins until after they
finished with the regular tabula-
ton. +,
The count was slowed by an
especially long array of contests
for State and local Offices. But
the results early confirmed an
Associated Press survey of news
men which placed Gen. Eisen-
hover and Gov. Warren in that
order and forecast the Kefauver
victory.
Adopted Rare Device.
Senator Taft did not seek votes,
but Eisenhower support ers
charged that eight unpledged
delegate-candidates actually fav-
ored the Ohio Senator. Three of
these declared themselves for
Taft; the rest have been silent.
Whatever their loyalties, this
slate resorted to a seldom used
device to get on the ballot by petit
ton to give them free choice at
the convention. All other running
for delegate on both tickets are
pledged to the winner Of the pref
erential vote.

greetings were exchanged al
the large number of parties
given yesterday. The Nor
wegian Ambassador and Mrs
Munthe de Morgenstierne were
hosts to members of theil

their families. The festivity fol-
lowed closely those in their native
land. the company, including the
children singing Norwegian
Christmas carols as they danced
round the Christmas tree in the
center of the large drawing room.
The tree was bright with colored

A typical Norwegian supper was
served in the dining room at a
rather early hour for the younger
guests at the party, and the older
ones fingered on through the eve
ming.
