and would have been very poor
politics.
Instead of being disappointed by
the Presidents failure" Mr.. Nix
on, believes the Presidents hand
ling of the situation was exactly
right" The interesting thing was
that those responsible for these re-
ports persistently and consistently
ignored what Mr. Eisenhower had
publicly said on the subject. Three
times he used these unqualified
words: My admiration and affec-
tion for him is boundless.' How
could a man say more? What words
could be used that would add to
that? In addition. he has shown
anger at the suggestion that he
might ditch Mr.. Nixon and on
Wednesday declared that those who
were trying to drive a wedge be-
tween him and Nixon might just
as well try driving il between him
and his brother Notwithstanding
all this, an effort is still being made
to make something significant of
the Presidents statement that he
had told Mr.. Nixon ito chart his
own course" and let him know
what he wants to do.
Well, there is not much doubt
what Mr.. Nixon wants 10 do and
very little doubt that Mr.. Eisen-
hover wants the same thing. Mr.
Nixon. naturally. wants to be re-
nominated. Clearly anything else
would be a step down. a victory for
his enemies. No one can read the
just published Nixon biography by
his friend, Mr. Ralph de Toledano,
and doubt that Mr.. Nixon has al
ready "charted his course" and
that Mr.. Eisenhower knows it. 1t
is, to be sure. a friendly picture of
Mr.. Nixon but it is factual one,
ably presented and extremely in
teresting. II makes it clear that Mr.
Nixon is not a man to step aside
or down or out. That unsolicited
$4,000 Write-in vote is pretty full
answer to the vicious campaign that
has been made against him. 1t is
almost if not quite as much a shock
to the forces, which have been try
ing to make an issue of Mr.. Nixon,
as the clear-cut sweep of Senator
Kefauver over the Stevenson sup
porting machine in the Democratic
primaries. The extent of his sweep
was a surprise even to the opti-
mistic Mr.. KefauVer, who had only
claimed a partial victory. 1t leaves
Mr. Stevenson still the front run
ner' for the nomination but it
makes it more certain he will have
to fight to get it. There is an old
political adage that says, 1T is the
expected that happens in politics. :"

for the hardest among them to get
their breath and begin to assemble

It was from these groups that

more than a million votes" It was
also asserted that what is cloudily
referred to as the White House

working against Mr.. Nixon. In par
ticular il was said that Gen. Lucius
Clay and Mr.. Sidney Weinberg, of
New York two CLOSE personal

poisoning the Eisenhower mind
against Mr. Nixon. And there was
the further report emanating from
the same sources that Ex-Governor
Dewey and Governor Herter were,
themselves, anxious TO get on the
ticket and therefore. against Nixon.
These were not all the anti-NiXon
ruIncrs produced by these groups
but they are a Good sample Sev-

of them before the New Hamp-

emphatically now First, they were

The Senate is debating va
