Claims in Bridges
Poll Are Disputed

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 18 (P)
Peter Kirby, chairman of the
Eisenhower-Herter Committee Of
San Francisco, said tonight the
poll reported today by Senator
Bridges as being overwhelmingly
favorable to Vice President
Nixon, contained obvious mac
curacies."
Mr.. Kirby said:
THE poll reports that SO pei
cent of the Connecticut voters
would vote for Eisenhower
Nixon. Even the most extreme
Republican would never claim
such a landslide in Connecticut
The poll further claims II pei
cent for Eisenhower-Nixon in
Illinois. 83 per cent in Iowa, "A
per cent in New York, IA per cent
in Pennsylvania, 81 per cent in
Rhode Island, rs per cent in
Texas and ~ per cent in West
Virginia. Surely even Senator
Bridges would not claim this tc
be sentiment OF the people in
these States"

cent were undecided. This find-
ing was basen on an assumption
that Adlai Stevenson and Sena-
tor Estes Kefauver would make
up the Democratic ticket.
In the poll. 49.6 per cent, or
20. 100000 voters ton a go mil
lion vote base) said they would
vote for President Eisenhower,
and 35.5 per cent. or 21,300.00O
would support Mr.. Stevenson
This was on a strictly presiden-
tial basis. disregarding the Vice
Presidency.
Spread Is 1879 Pct.
"The spread between Eisen-
hover and Stevenson when the
vice presidency is disregarded,
is 1879 per cent" Mr.. Stassen
noted. "The spread between
Eisenhower and Stevenson, If
Nixon is the vice presidential
candidate. is ga per cent or a
drop Of rs per cent" In addi-
ton. is per cent are in the class
of "other candidates" or don't
know" or refused"
On questions dealing specific
ally with Gov. Herter the poll
found an Eisenhower Herter
ticket, opposing a Stevenson-Ke-
lfauver ticket. had the support
of 56.3 per cent of those answer
ing. A total of 43.7 per cent ia
vored the Democratic nominee.
In reply to a general question
as to whether some Republican
other than Mr.. Nixon becomes
the vice presidential nominee,
l48.3 percent, or 28.9 million. said
they would vote for President
Eisenhower. and 34.4 per cent or
2O.6 million sided with Mr.. Ste
venson.
The Stassen poll, covering
more than 200 areas of the
United States. was conducted
August 10 through August IS by
the Advertest Research Co. of
New Brunswick, N. J. Mr.. Stas-
sen said the company's sampling
method was approved by an
other impartial organization, the
National Analyst of Philadelphia.

Civil Rights an Issue
Next to the vice presidency
the only element of uncertainty
here is how the Republicans viii
handle the civil rights issue
which was the storm center Of
the Democratic platform.
The spirit of tranquility that
|pervades this Republican gath
ering was exemplified today By
the announcement that two COL
Ilege football cheerleaders have
been brought in to organize the
demonstrations in the Cow
Palace.
They are Dan Angeloff Of the
University of Southern Califor-
mia and Jim Walters of STAN
ford The announcement said
their job is to use their expert
ence at football games to bring
order into the demonstrations on
the floor of the convention.

Conceding that he still faces
great difficulties. he neverthe-
less declared that the outlook
for an open convention is much
brighter.
II do feel that the convention
now is open for consideration
of other names for the vice
presidential nomination" he
said. The situation, he insisted,
has not been affected by the let

this week to Joseph w. Martin,
the House Republican leader,
who will preside over the con-
vention. The Massachusetts

was paid for by the Manchester
Union Leader and the New
Hampshire Sunday News.
In regard to the Stassen poll
Mr.. Stassen saw as most signif1
cant and threatening the trent
of poll answers to the question
IF Nixon is the vice presidential
candidate with Eisenhower whom
do you think you will vote for
Eisenhower or Stevenson" An.
swers showed Asst per cent. o.
27.2 million, for Eisenhower, &c.;
per cent or 23.5 million for Ste
venson. IL per cent or 100000
for someone else for President
Another 10 per cent don't know
and 3 per cent refused to reply
to the poll takers.
Thus 8 per cent of the Essen
hover vote Nationwide is lost
when the name is combined with
Vice President Nixon's name, Of
a total of 2.340,000 votes. "Mr

In the present poll Mr.. Stasser

was merely on a go million-vote

Choice Up TO Delegates
Although Mr.. Eisenhower has
said he would be glad to have
Mr.. Nixon as his running mate
again. he also has emphasized
that the choice is one for the
delegates to make. This gives
the Republicans the same chance
the Democrats had to ballot on
several names. But, as in Chi
cago. this would not prevent the
party leaders from passing the
word that one name is preferred
above the others.
Political observers agree thai
Mr.. Stevenson played a trump
card when he stressed the grow
ing Importance of the vice pres
idency and called for an open
race. They also feel that he in

shire rushed into battle with a
poll report indicating pretty
much the opposite.
Entering the same press con-
ference room as Mr.. Stassen was
leaving, Senator Bridges told
reporters he had an impartial
poll of his own taken four days
later than the Stassen sample
He said it showed that 54.3 per
cent of those questioned would
prefer an Eisenhower Nixon
ticket. while only 25.7 wanted an
Eisenhower-Herter ticket. An
other 20 per cent voiced no
opinion.
Poll on Knowing Herter
The Bridges poll showed So
per cent answered yes" and
47.47 per cent replied mo" to a
question: do you know who
Christian Herter is?"
OF those polled 1916 per cent
were Republicans, 37.6 per cent
Democrats and 22.8 per cent in
dependents. All of those ques-
toned were asked, If the cleo
ton were today would YOU vote
for Eisenhower and NixDn?" He
said SIT per cent answered yes
while 1858 per cent said mo" and
z per cent had no opinion.
The New Hampshire Repnbli-
can presented the poll results in
four-page printed pamphlet
entitled: THE truth about Nixon
and the voters" He described it
as a nonsecret poll conducted by
Robert Maheu Associates of
Washington. D. c.
Senator Bridges said Mr.. Ma
heu is a former FBI agent and
uses former agents in his sur
veys. Asked by a reporter why
this point was emphasized. the
Senator said it was because of
their reliability and the fact that
they are usually accurate in
gathering information.
