ginia and Florida, the presidential
election was virtually over.
Still later returns showed Cali
fornia going strongly for Gen.
Eisenhower and gave him a con-
siderable lead in Texas.
The election of a Republican
President after 20 years of Demo-
cratic rule in Washington will
bring a turnover in official
Washington of important proper
tions. All the top Offices of the
Government will be filled by new
men and women. Gen. Eisen-
hover promised during the cam
paign to clean up the mess in
Washington" Whether he will
recognize the South in his ap-
pointments to Office remains to
be seen. It is presumed he will
do so, in view of the remarkable
support he was given in that ira
ditionally Democratic section of
the country. The vast number of
Federal employees. both in Wash
ington and in the States. are un-
der civil service. and it is not
expected these employees will be
disturbed.
In addition to winning the pres
idency and making gains in Con-
gress, the Republicans picked up
several Governors of States which
have been held by the Democrats.
In Illinois. William G. Stratton,
Republican, defeated his Democra-
tic opponent, 1t. Gov. Sherwood
P. Dixon. Gov. Steyenson's choice
to succeed him there. Also in
Michigan, Fred NJ. Alger. jr., Re
publican, won over Gov. G. Men
nen Williams, Democrat. who was
seeking third term. The Repub-
licans also elected Governors in
Indiana and Delaware, where
Democrats have been in power.
At the same time, there have been
no defeats of incumbent Republi-
can Governors.
! Gov. Frank G. Lausche of Ohio
Democrat, was leading, however,
in his race for reelection against
Charles P. Taft. Republican
younger brother of Senator Rob-
ert A. Taft.
From the returns it is apparent
that it was the little people" who
revolted against the Democratic
rule. This was true all over the
country. Many reports in recent
weeks that Gov. Stevenson was
making gains were erroneous. The
farm vote, which in 1948 gave
President Truman victory in many
of the big States of the Middle
West, yesterday moved back to the
Republican fold.
/ Red Issue Potent.
In Democratic Massachusetts,
and other States, 1t is clear that
the Communist issue, which
charged the administration with
coddling the Reds and fellow
travellers, was potent.
Obviously the labor leaders were
unable to control the votes Of the
workers, although Gov. Stevenson
had been strongly indorsed by the
AFL, the CIO and other labor
unions.
I The new 83d Congress will meet
in its first session January 8. Gen

CAB Decides Against
 Civil AirlineS' Conversion Knots and Nautical Miles

WASHINGTON, (P)-The Civil Aeronautics Board decided We'd nesday against ordering civil avi- ation to change over to the meas urement of speed and distance in knots and nautical miles.
 The board said many elements of the aviation industry strongly opposed abandonment of the stat ute mile system, to which they had long been accustomed.
 It added that opponents of the change also held conversion would be an unnecessary burden and would introduce some hazard into private and commercial air oper- atlOnS.
 The board had circulated among the aviation industry for comment on its April l proposal that civil aviation convert to nautical mile measurements July 1.
 The board based it's proposal on studies conducted by the fed eral governments Inter Agency Air Coordinating Committee.

May in Nome, with an average temperature of 28.8 degrees, was 5.3 degrees below normal and the coldest May since 1945.
 The warm trend the last week resulted in a rapid decrease of snow cover and saw the begin ming of breakup of ice in the Snake River. Fast shore ice re- mained in Norton Sound at the end of the month but slush pock- cts and thin spots were numerous.
 Precipitation for May exceeded twice the normal value. The monthly total of 1.28 inches has been exceeded only twice since 1918. Heavy snow fell on the 3rd and 4th, accounting for nearly on e. half of the monthly total. Precipitation later in the month was in the form of rain.

 Many of the reporters at Abi- lene, Kansas, covering Eisenhow- CTS speech were those who GUS tomarily cover President Tru- mans news conferences. Truman held one Thursday, in which he said definitely for the first time that he will attend the Demo- cratic convention in Chicago. He had previosly talked somewhat vaguely of going.
 Truman repeated he won't be the nominee, however, and said he wouldn't show up until the Democrats have made their choice of the man to succeed him. /
 Asked whether he thought the victory of Republican Sen. Know land in California's Democratic primary meant that the people there are against Democratic for eign policies, Truman said he was n't disturbed. He said the Dem- ocratic Party overcame difficult ties in 1948 and he expects it will do so again.
