showing four years ago. Mr.. Buffers
235 per cent gain took account of
$1,000 Republican write-in votes for
Senator William Knowland.
In the 1852 primary, three Re-
publican entrants-Mr. Eisenhower,
Harold Stassen and the late Sena-
tor Robert A. Taft-amassed total
of 1,162,719 votes, compared to only
1885, 700 for three Democrats. Sena-
tor Kefauver, Harry Truman and
Averell Hartman. The 1852 Demo-
cratic votes, however, all were
write-in ballots.
Two Points Of View
Democrats said their showing
should be weighted by the fact that
while the Republicans had brisk
primary contests for United States
Senator and several high State Of
fees to draw out the G. o. P. votes,
Democratic candidates for these
posts were unopposed.
On the other hand, Republicans
saw significance in Mr.. Eisenhower's
defeat of Mr.. Stevenson in Phila-
delphia by 10000 votes in face of
determined drive by city Democratic
leaders. including Mayor Richardson
Dilworth, to roll up a huge margin
for Mr.. Stevenson. In the 1852
presidential election. Mr.. Stevenson
carried Philadelphia by 10000
votes.
More Conflicting Claims
Somewhat less significant than
the Pennsylvania races was a presi-
dental primary held in Massa-
chuSetts, also on Tuesday, in which
Democratic Representative John
w. Mccormack emerged as likely
favorite-Son candidate.
Here again, both parties con-
f1dently claimed their respective
positions were firming, despite the
fact that the Eisenhower vote of
51,378 IN the preferential primary
almost equaled the combined vote
for ali three Democrats: Mr.. Nc
Cormack, who received 28,153: Mr..
Stevenson, who received 1890. and
Senator Kefauver, trailing with
4,489. In addition, there were
1,947 Democrats who wrote Mr..
Eisenhower's name on their party
ballots. All presidential votes for
both parties were write-inS.
Chairman Butler saw the results
as IAN outright victory" for the
Democrats. pointing out that the
Democratic vote of 50.4 per cent
against only 17.6 per cent in 1852.

The Personal Element
Certainly another consideration
that must have presented itself
to Mr.. Nixon was his own ambition.
He would like to go, up, and up
can only mean the White House
The President, who has referred
to Mr.. Nixon conner" in the
party, said on March that he had
asked his Vice President to chart
his own course" This, when con-
sidered with other remarks Mr..
Eisenhower had made on the sub
ject, seemed to imply that Mr..
Nixon must decide himself whether
the vice presidency was the straight
est road upward. Now he has made
that decision.
Since it is impossible to forget
that the man who holds the worlds
most fatiguing job is a 65-year-old
cardiac case, many Americans no
doubt reflected that Thursday might
have been the day the identity of
our next President became known.
This was the thought which i'm
mediately struck the Democrats,
whose national chairman, Paul M.
Butler. said upon hearing of the
decision: Il am sure that an over
whelming majority of American
voters of both parties believe that
Mr.. Nixon is not the type of person
to be placed in a position from
which he may succeed to the Pres
idency of our country"
No Misery There
Democratic candidate Adlai
Stevenson received the news in
Miami without any misery whatso-
ever" He noted that Mr.. Eisen-
hover had repeatedly expressed his
high regard for Mr.. Nixon, and
added. Il guess this is just one
more point where he (the Presi-
dent) and I disagree"
Republicans generally hailed the
vice PRESIDENTS decision. National
Chairman Leonard Hall said, Dick
Nixon has been a great Vice Presi-
dent" and predicted that a dupli-
cate of the 1852 ticket would lead
the Republican Party to an even
greater victory this year."
Senate Republican Leader Will

Fan Club. unsmilingly observed

effect that would follow Soviet

say. result upon the human mind

through space at several times the

World confidence in Americas
hitherto inSuperable industrial
plant would also be shaken, of
course. Our allies might not want
to put their money on Whist looked
like losing horse. Mr.. Khrush-
chev showed particular interest in
this aspect.
Who's Behind?
In his Birmingham remarks about
the hydroge1 bomb missile, Mr..
Khrushchev tainted: do you
think we are behind you? 1t is a
question of who is behind and who
is in front"
He boosted that the Communists
had been first to explode hydro
gen bomb from an airplane. THE
Americans are only intending to do
so because their previous explosion
was not of a hydrogen bomb, but
OF hydrogen installation" he said.
In Washington officials said Mr..
Khrushchev attached too much
importance to air-dropping H.
bombs. We could have, and de-
cided not to, they said. Whether
our tests are conducted with bombs
attached to towers, platforms OF
bargeS, or dropped from airplanes,
depends on how much instrumental
ton is involved. If there is a lot of
measuring to be done, it is ex-
planned, towers facilitate the meas
urements.

The ovation which marked the
ending Of the odyssey Of Richard
Dirksen and Werner Lywen
through the IS violin-and-key-
board sonatas Of Mozart was a
tribute to two musicians. Neither
is by trade q recitalist. but to-
gether they undertook to bring
the local concert-goer an eight
course repast Of the most un-
usual and varied music. 1t lie not
easy to recall a similar series so
fundamentally entertaining, so
sound in its n1usicianship, so
brilliant in its execution and so
imaginative in its choice.
If neither player has a life
time Of chamber music exper-
fence behind him, it is probably
fortunate for the audience. For.
playing fresh music primarily if
not exclusively for the personal
joy it gives them in creating It,
the two men never fall into the
placid matter-of -factness that is
the curse Of the usual concert
artist facing a season Of so con-
certs and only six or seven pieces
Of music.
There is perhaps q touch of
wit in Mozart's ending his life
work in duet Sonatas with one
designated "for beginners. The
work is by no means an easy
one, and If Mozart himself IS
in the habit of beginning where
others left OF, only q pair like
Mr.. Dirksen and Mr.. Lywen,
at least among any duo known
to me, could approach Mozart's
last sonata, for beginners, with
no greater respect than his
first-by a beginner.
The E nat sonata with which
last nights concert opened is
in some ways the acme Of all
the composers chamber music.
The slow movement, in which a
reserved but childlike tune al
ternates with development of
the most profound passion, is
q creation without any peer.
The two artists played it as
knowingly as one will hear.
