Tanks of Monel, the long lasting Inco Nickel Alloy
It's corrosion that causes gasoline leakage and
creates fire hazard.

Carmine DeSapio. Democratic
national committeeman for New
York and Gov. Averell Harri-
mans chief political booster, says
the Democrats can whip any Re-
publican candidate for President.
1T won't make any difference,
he said, who the Republicans
put up. There will be Demo-
crat in the White House in 1856. "
He said the Republicans are
throwing up a smoke screen
and camouflage" on the question
of whether President Eisenhower
will run again.
Has National Appeal
Mr.. DeSapio discussed the po-
litical situation and Gov. Harri-
mans status-he described the
Governor as a favorite son can

peal-in a radio interview on
MBS' Reporters Roundup last
night.
To direct question about Gov
Harriman's plans. Mr.. DeSapic
said: II have no knowledge
as to when he will announce his
candidacy. He has indicated, as
you know, that presently he is moi
an active candidate"

to pin down what Mr.. DeSapio

Mr.. Benson parted the ques-

Attacks High Supports
In his speech at the 10Th an
nual meeting Of the Metropolitan
Milk Producers Bargaining
Agency. Mr.. Benson asserted that
high support prices imposed by
the Democrats during World Wal
II were responsible for food sur
pluses.

Political Significance
In reply, Mr.. DeSapio cited
the political Importance Of Gov
Harriman's being Governor OF
New York and added:
HE is not only just the gov
ernor Of the largest State of the
Union, but his knowledgeability
of both national and interna-
'tional affairs is such that he is
recognized, in my humble opin-
ion, as one Of the outstanding
leaders in our party, and will
i assume. be given that recog-
milton and consideration at con-
Ivention time"
Asked about the possible politi-
cal benefit to Gov. Hartman re-
Isulting from the AFL-CIO merg-
Ter, Mr.. DeSapio did not answer
directly, but said:
Many strong labor leaders
throughout the country and Gov
Hartman have seen eye to eye

A reporter suggested that Mr.
Eisenhower-who has repeatedly
expressed faith in Mr.. Benson
might not ask Mr.. Benson tc
quit. even though the President
felt a resignation might help the
party. Mr.. Benson replied:
Il didn't ask for this job. I'm
part of the team. And I've never
worried about tenure Of office.

Mr.. Benson said he thought
any Republican candidate could
run on the Eisenhower-B Benson

Later. in speech before a

Benson struck anew at Demo-
cratic farm proposals by declar-
Ing that rigio price supports had

postwar market.
He said his department would
present a constructive" pro-
gram to Congress next month.
Pleases Democrats
Some Democrats have said they
hoped Mr.. Benson remained in
the Eisenhower cabinet until the
1856 election. They argue that
so many farmers are dissatisfied
with Mr., Benson'S approach to
the national farm problem that
the Democrats would pick UP
votes.
