der is taken for granted, as Of
today. No other Republican
candidate for the Senate is now
in sight. Further. aspiring Re-
publicans may be reluctant to
match themselves against Gov
Lausche, even if they had a
chance to defeat Senator Ben
der in the primary.
Four Mentioned for Governor
Two Republicans and two
Democrats are prominently men
toned for nomination for gov
lernor of Ohio. The Republicans
are C. william O'Neil, attorney
general, and 1t. Gov. John w.
Brown. Both have been in poll
tics and office for sometime. Mr..
lO'Neil was speaker Of the house
lof representatives, and Mr..
Brown has twice been elected
lieutenant governor. Usually the
party that elects a governor also
elects a lieutenant governor. In
the elections of 1852 and 1854,
however. Mr.. Brown was able to
win over his Democratic OPP
lponents, although Gov. Lausche
was carving the State.
The Democrats mentioned for
governor are former Senator
Burke, who was appointed by
lLauche to the Senate to fill a
vacancy caused by Senator Taft's
death, and Mike Disable. one
time price administrator in the
Truman administration.

lis reported to have mentioned
the precise figure the admins
