Iof the voters. it is expected, will
express themselves r.y writing IN
Mr.. Nixons name. Others may
write in other potential nomi-
lnees.
Mr.. Nixon is well liked by
many of the Republicans in this
State. Gov. Dwinell. for example,
has said: "Why break up a vim
ming team" There are some who
say frankly they would like to
see an older and less controversial
man placed on the ticket with
Mr.. Eisenhower. Others express
"a fear that independent voters
will not support the Republican
national ticket next November
if Mr.. Nixon is the vice presi-
dental nominee.
Inquiry among rank-and- file
Republican voters, however, dis
closes that they are willing to
vote for an Eisenhower Nixon
ticket when the time comes, even
though some of them prefer an
other vice presidential candi-
date. They are ready to go down
the line for Mr.. Eisenhower with
or without Mr.. Nixon. The Presi-
dent apparently has retained his
great popularity with the voters
of New Hampshire. The Repub-
lican leaders say he will sweep
this State against any candidate
the Democrats may name.

lWestphalia, the richest and mos
Ipopulous state in the Fedora
Republic, DR.. Adenauer's party
was suddenly overthroWn after
mine years of rule by a new
coalition combining the Free
Democrats. Socialists and Center
Party.
The shock of this upheaval
brought a sudden end to the talk
of a reconciliation between Drs
Adenauer and Dehler. After an
other angry exchange, the FDF
leader announced that the coali-
ton was dissolved. A total of "a
out of So FDP deputies in the
Bundestag joined him in going
over to the opposition. The re-
manning Is. who elected to stick
to the Chancellor were expelled
from the party. At the same
time, DR.. Dehler has kicked off
"a violent campaign against the
government in a number of new
states. The main points of his
ATTACK: That DR.. Adehauer has
shown himself indifferent to
German Identification and that
his policy of close association
with the West has done nothing
to bring it closer.
The effect of this blowup is
perhaps not all bad. For one
thing. it has rid the Chancellor
of a troublesome alley and
cleared the way for a more con-
sistent government policy in the
future. DR.. Adenauer still has a
firm hold on the parliament,
with a majority of 1872 out of
487 seats in the Bundestag and
81 out of 38 in the upper cham
Der. What he has lost in both
houses, however, is the two
thirds majorities that he needs
for the constitutional changes
required in connection with the
new military laws-a fact which
makes the whole course of Ger
man rearmament good deal
more problematical than it ap-
lpeared a few years ago.
There are some people here in
Bonn who see a kind of his
torical logic in the headaches
that now beset the Chancellor.
During the occupation years, it
was clear enough to large ma
Ijority OF Germans that their in
IterestS lay in a government
whose unwavering adherence to
the West would speed German
recovery to the point where an
independent line would be pos
Isible. Today, having reached
that point, there are signs of a
developing trend in favor of a
more adventurous policy, less
rigid political groupings and less
Iautocratic leadership.
This tendency, so far, has been
counterbalanced by the conser-
vatism of people who are enjoy
ing greater material prosperity
than ever before. For all the
political fireworks, there is little
real enthusiasm for radical
changes or dangerous boat
rocking in any quarter. Most
people here see these recent
developments as a sort of polit-
ical coming = of age accom-
panied by a normal urge to cut
lGermany's postwar apron
strings. AS a result. there seems
to be a growing group which
looks on DR.. Adenauer as a
Ivenerated but outgrown nurse
maid, whose authority has be-
come increasingly irksome as
time goes by.

ing. making speeches, shaking
hands, working hard. Mr.. Ste

officially has taken no part in
the campaign.
So there is a "heads-I-win-

contest from the viewpoint of Mr..
Stevenson's lieutenants.
They tell you that their aim is
to kill off Senator Kefauver's
drive in this opening skirmish of
the campaign for the Democratic
nomination. They will claim a
victory if only a few of the II
Stevenson delegate candidates
are elected. Off the record, they
say they expect to get even more.
Senator Kefauver has said he
would be satisfied to win more
than half" the delegates.

The statement came from

l2.-Republicans in New Hamp-
shire view their presidential pri-
mary tomorrow with utmost
complacency.
They will vote with great
unanimity their preference for
President Eisenhower and elect

graduate themselves on avoid

For this they are grateful to

Rift Quickly Heals
Senator Bridges and his
friends made it clear they did
not intend to leave the field en-
tirely free to Gov. Dwinell and
Mr.. Adams and a hand-picked
delegation ready to back a can
didate for the presidential nomi-
nation who would not suit them
But today. they are all for Mr.
Eisenhower. Gov. Dwinell and
Senator Bridges are both on the
ballot as delegate candidates
favorable" to Mr.. Eisenhower
And so are all the rest, except a
handful of delegate candidates
who had been entered earlier as
favorable" to Senator Know

statement. even the presence OF
these Knowland delegate candi-
dates on the ballot-it is too late
to take them off - causes nc
problem. If any of them were
to win, Senator Knowland would
promptly turn them over to the
President.

Considerable curiosity has
arisen here, however, over
whether Republican voters will
register their feelings regarding
Vice President Nixon when they
go to the polls. Ample space is
