why did more Republicans

This unanswered question
is bothering the politicians Of
both parties, but they don't
admit It IN public. They could
shape their strategy If they
knew the answer. Instead. the
easy, glossed-over explana-
tons are puhlicized. One side
sees q Reputation Of Eisen-
hover policies and the other
side merely comedies that a
serious division in its ranks
prevails.
There is certainly some
thing about the actual iig-
ures which has not as yet
been satisfactorily explained.
Thus. 10 months ago. when
Senator Wiley. Republican.
was reelected, he got o54.S44
votes, while his Democratic
opponent polled 5S6.76e

reforms has a definite foreign
policy Of neutralism and anti

since that clearance he has

convinced that the Com

his country to line up with

It was expressed by those who
