Phrasing Of Demand
On Korea Prisoners

BY the Associated Pres.

MUNSAN. Korea, Mar. 26.-
Truce negotiators displayed
much more frankness" today in
seeking q compromise on ex-
changing prisoners-one of the
three key issues blocking a Ko-
rean armistice- AN Allied spokes-

There is no fundamental diff

Gen. Nuckols said, but the new
term might "be more palatable to
the enemy. No forced repatria-

said, U. N. negotiators have been

Decks Cleared for Last Issue.
The U. N. command took the
new tack on the problem more
than 10 days ago, Gen. Nuckols
said. But he disclosed it to news
men for the first time today.
A second group of staff officers
cleared the decks for tackling the
sole key issue neutrality-suspicious.
Russia should help supervise the
truce.

wouldn't consider it.

garded in the past as walk
away race for Senator Taft, now
has the political observers and
politicians engaged in a major
guessing contest.
An apparent upsurge in Eisen-
hover sentiment is responsible
although the general is not en-
tered in the primary.
Here is the strange situation.
Gov. Warren is a bona fide can
didate for the States 80 delegates
to the Republican Convention. But
many of his principal supporters
in the State have declared their
willingness to vote for Gen. Eisen-
hover if they are elected dele
gates and it becomes apparent
that Gov. Warren cannot win the
presidential nomination.
Both the Milwaukee Journal
and the Madison Capital Times
have called on the Eisenhower
supporters to vote for the Warren
delegate candidates. Gov. War
rem. however, continues to be
silent on the Eisenhower can
didacy. although he could boost
his own candidacy tremendously
by saying that he would support
the general if he, himself failed
to win the nomination.
Seeking Eisenhower Votes.
In addition, Mr.. Stassen, for
mer Governor of Minnesota, who
in 1948 won large majority OF
the Wisconsin delegates, is seek
ing to attract the Eisenhower
vote to the Stassen delegate can
didates.
His offer to release half o1
his delegates to Gen. Eisenhower
was made at Sheboygan last
night. He might help him
self more, however, if he got
around to saying he was for Gen
Eisenhower, and would turn the
delegation over to him. The main
drive of the Eisenhower supporters
is to deliver the Eisenhower vote

turn out presumably would not
favor Senator Taft. on the theory
that in light vote the "or-
ganized," which is with the
Ohioan, always wins. In the
1948 primary nearly 100000 votes
were cast-540. 900 in the Repub-
lican primary and 100000 in the
Democratic. In that year, Mr..
Stassen won 10 Of the delegates
and the rest went to Gen. Mac
Arthur, and Gov. Dewey of New
York was goose-egged, although a
full slate of candidates was en-
tered for him. It is estimated
today that between 100000 and
/ million voters will go to the
polls April 1, so intense has the
interest become in the races here.
Voters Can Switch.
Second, there is just one regis
tration III Wisconsin, with no
party affilias1on demanded or
given. A Democrat or an inde-
pendent is at full liberty to vote
in the Republican primary, and
it is predicted that many of them
will. This might make it bad
for Taft delegate candidates. SEN
ator Taft. in this State as in
others, has with him the hard
core of the Republican Party-the
"stalwarts' as they have been
called for years. How strong an
appeal he makes to other voters
remains to be seen. The La Fol-
lette progressives of other days
are lining up against the Ohio
Senator, and former Gov. Phil
La Toilette is a candidate for
delegate at large on the Warren
ticket.
Mr.. Coleman and the organiza-
ton which he developed-the or
ganization which first turned Phil
LaFollette out of the Governors
office and later substituted Sena-
tor Mccarthy for Senator Bob La
Toilette, jr., six years ago, is q
big Taft asset. Without it, the

In view of the wide claims made
by the Taft people. a failure to
win considerable majority OF
the delegates would be interpreted
as a blow to Senator Taft. Also

to Gov. Warren. If they can sue
coed, the advantage which Sena-
tor Taft now has of a divided
Opposition VIII be lessened greatly.
The Taft campaign is driving
straight ahead. largely under the
direction of Mr.. Coleman, who
has been the guiding spirit in the
IG. o. p. and its defeat of the La
Toilette Progressives in recent
years. 1t was on the invitation
lof Mr.. Coleman and other Wis
lconSin Republican leaders, that
Senator Taft last winter made his
formal announcement he would be
Ia candidate for the presidential
nomination. And as Of today SEN
ator Taft apparently has the edge.
His campaign managers claim he
will have % to "a delegates when

even better.

81 think" he said, "that War
ren will get the votes from what
I see and hear. Taft will play
second fiddle and Stassen will
run third, with Macarthur fourth.
In fact, Warren should have 20
of the delegates"
"Anything Can Happen"
Other more objective observers,
while they do not claim as much
for Gen. Eisenhower, say the con-
test has now become a "horse
race" and that anything can
happen"
There is a fifth delegate slate
on the ballot-for Perry j. Stearns
of Milwaukee, perennial candidate
who will get nowhere and few
votes.
Gen. Macarthur has done his
best to discourage voting for him
self and has urged the Macarthur
supporters not to waste their votes
but to use them where they will
do most good. This has been in
terpYeted by the Taft people as
an effort to turn the Macarthur
strength to Senator Taft. How
ever, the Macarthur fanatics are
having none of it. They plan to
go right down the line for their
candidate. Harlan w. Kelley of
Baraboo, a Taft delegate, accord
ing to Marshall C. Graft of Apple
ton, proposed to Mr.. Graft that
Macarthur people go to Senator
Taft in the primary, and said that
the Taft people figured they
needed 10000 more votes to win
next Tuesday. n
Denies Taft Has Trouble.
Mr.. Kelley, who like Mr.. Graf
was Macarthur delegate at the
1948 Republican National Conven-
ton, admitted he had urged Mr..
Graft to come over to Mr.. Taft,
but denied he had said or implied
that Senator Taft was in any
difficulty in Wisconsin. He said
he had told Mr.. Graft that Sen
lator Taft was "the only friend
Macarthur has at court" The
lpro-MacArthur slate is pledged to
Grant A. Ritter, "stand-in
candidate" for the general, since
Gen. Macarthur would not per-
init the use Of his name in the
primary.
Many factors may have their
impact on the result of the Taft
Warren-Stassen race. First, the
size of the vote. A very large

MINNEAPOLIS. Nov. 15.-Price
Stabilizer Tighe Woods said today
he has directed his Washington
staff to issue an order within 10
days lowering the price of meat

The statement. issued through

clinic "if the price of meat at re-
tail does not come down in the
next 10 days or two weeks, it's
going to be forced down."
Mr.. Woods said today if meat
prices cannot be lowered because
of a flaw" in the law, he wants
the public to know that is why it

Sentence Upheld
By Appeals Court

The Maryland Court of Appeals
has upheld siX-ycar sentence in
the House of Correction handed
Calvin c. Larch, of Oakland, for
receiving stolen goods.
Associate Judge George IIcnder
son handed Larch the term after
a jury had found him guilty.
Larch, truck driver, who oper-
ated a junk business on the side,
had argued the Garrett County
Circuit court should have granted
his request to move the trial else
whore. He said newspaper articles
had aroused public opinion and a
beautician had signed an affidavit
doubling Larch could receive ii fair
trial in Garrett county. Larch also
signed an affidavit. Neither docu-
mcnt nor the newspaper clippings
were put in the court record.
Judge Stephen X. Collins said
the high court found no reason to
Justify moving the trial. The court
had ruled the same way in a pre-
Vious case when Is atfidavits and
news stories were offered for re
view, "a privilege we were not
given" in Lach's appeal, Collins
said.
