One Of the top names In the
Middle Atlantic section spent q
full day at Andrews being inter.
viewed for the job. and q couple
Iof others had some political
lpull. Somebody said So pros and
assistants had applied for the
position.
It's a break for the Middle

not by accident. Bill Clarke. the

but because he wanted q Pea
member to get the job.
This could be Pigott's big
break. He's been in and out Of
golf since he started caddyine
at East Potomac. George is IS
years old, has q college educa-
ltion, was a bomber pilot in
World War II.
Pigott, q handsome, husky
voiced 6-footer with gray side
burns. has had two teaching
terms on the East Potomac
stan, worked q year at Wood
mont under Freddie Bolton
and for three years was pro Of
cambridge Naval Training
Station. He lost the latter job
when Bainbridge lost its ap-
preparation.
Pigott has been @ Class A
member of the PGA for four
years, and in his terms at East
Potomac has run the gamut Of
teaching. He should be able "a

George made the varsity bas-

3 Villagers Still Fear
Accepting Gift Stock

fortune in Nevada.
Although the two brothers
had never seen the village, they
had heard about its poverty
and wanted to help it, as a
memorial to their parents. So
they offered 25 shares of Bank
of America stock, a block worth
about $1,000, to each villager,
more wealth than most of them
ever dreamed of possessing.
All of the 284 residents ac-
cepted with delight except the
CaSsinelliS. They are among
the poorest, with their one
room house their chief possess
sion. The, bank representative
has been back three times, to
be told each time, 1--WE do not

Father Luigi Rosasco, the
village priest, also has tried
without success to get the fam
lily to take the stock. He said
old Mrs. CasSinelli is afraid
that if the family signs papers
it would enable the authorities
to evict her from the village

Mikoyon Draws

MEXICO CITY, Nov. "a

Anastas I. Mikoyan is drawing
newspaper criticism here for
spreading propaganda against
the United States on his visit
to Mexico.
Excelsior said editorially yes
terday that the Russian visitor
has provoked general and dis
agreeable surprise among us"
by attacking the United States
with indiscretion and virulence.
"It might be said," Excelsior
asserted, that Senor Mikoyan
came to Mexico not to inaugu-
rate the Soviet Exposition of
Science, Technology and Cul-
ture or to promote the devel-
opment of trade between our
country and his, or even to
make propaganda in praise of
the material achievements of
Red totalitarianism at the ex-
pense of the human person,
but rather to attack our neigh
bors to the north, perhaps with
the intent of prejudicing us
against them"

LEGACY FOR G. oP.
Toft's Analysis of Defeat

said four-f1fths Of them sup
ported the Eisenhower candi-
dacy and in effect became
propaganda organs for his ef-
forts to win the nomination,
not only in the primaries but
in reporting to his opponents
advantage the events at the
convention itself.
The Senator carefully noted
the newspapers that had sup
ported him and named them as
the Chicago Tribune, the Wall
Street Journal, the Omaha
World-Herald and the Los
Angeles Times. The Hearst
newspapers, the Philadelphia
Inquirer and the Knight news
papers, the Senator said,
remained neutral while the
support of most Of the others
went to President Eisenhower
along with that of what he
called New Deal and so-called
independent papers.
Analyses Convention
Senator Taft gave a forth
right analysis of the convention
battle itself in which, as he
noted, most Of the delegates
were pledged to him or to Gen.
Eisenhower in a two-way fight.
The pre-convention primaries,
he pointed out. largely favored
Mr.. Eisenhower in the East and
himself in the Midwest.
The outcome, he also noted,
might have been different if
the Taft forces had put on a
real campaign battle in Penn
Sylvania, New York, Michigan
and some other places. But he
pointed out that the expenses
involved and newspaper infiu-
ence had made such a course
difficult. The Taft forces, he
remarked, almost lost South
Dakota because the three lead
ing newspapers in the State
were opposed to him.
AS Senator Taft viewed it,
he went to the convention with
604 delegates more or less COM
mitted to him. Gen. Eisenhower
had 400, he said; 1913 were for
other candidates, and 80 were
uncommitted. But Senator Taft
emphasized this was never a
firm estimate since even among
those who had expressed a
preference for him might be
some who would be persuaded
otherwise. AS Senator Taft saw
the situation in hindsight, he
had a hard core of 500 dele
gates and the others were
subject to persuasion and
pressure.
Senator Taft noted that un-

ton. Now, as then, there is a
challenger having powerful but
so far unrevealed supper
among the Eastern interests. 1t
was such a challenger - Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower - who
blocked the Taft nomination.
Senator Taft began the 2,300-
word memorandum by stating
that there had been a tendency
to lay too much stress on the
circumstances of the conven-
ton rather than what went on
before.
After absolving his lieuten-
ants of blame for the outcome,
the Senator said the results of
the convention came from more
underlying causes which had
been in operation before the
convention and continued to
operate at the convention it.
self.
Business Backed Eisenhower
AS a first reason for his de-
feat, the Ohio Republican
blamed the New York financial
interests and a large segment
of business throughout the
country subject to their in
f1uence.
These interests, the Senator
wrote, had selected President
Eisenhower as their candidate
at least a year before the con-
vention. While he had substan-
tial business support, Senator
Taft said, it was in a minor
ity, especially in the East.
Newspapers for Eisenhower
AS a second major influence
on the outcome of the con-
vention, Senator Taft named

An unpublished political leg
acy left by Senator Robert A.
Taft of Ohio is being studied in
some Republican circles in the
light of a possible Nixon-Rocke-
feller struggle for the party's
1860 presidential nomination.
1t is a lengthy memorandum
dictated by Senator Taft after
his unsuccessful 1852 battle for
the nomination. In it, the
Senator bla m e d his defeat
largely on the influence of New
York circles and the support of
President Eisenhower by most
of the country's newspapers.
Stressed Two Points
He wrote the eight-and-a-half
page memorandum in the fall
of 1852, less than a year before
his death from cancer. In it
he sought to emphasize two
points:
/. The circumstances leading
to his defeat at the 1852 con-
vention in Chicago had been in
operation for at least eight
months and were more impor-
tant than the contest over dele
gates and other events which
highlighted the convention it.
self.
2. He did not want any of his
supporters blamed for the result
and charged with mistakes
which he said they did not
make and which, in any event,
would not have affected the
outcome Of the convention
battle.
The memorandum was cir
culated only among the Sena-
tors closest lieutenants and has
been held by them and members
of his family in confidence up
until this time.
1t has become the subject of
discussion because of a prospec-
tive G. o. P. battle between Vice
President Nixon and New York
Gov. Rockefeller for the presi-
Dental nomination next year.

Steel Firms ASSESSING
u. S. Conspiracy Suit

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. "a
AP).-Western steel professors
today studied a Government
civil suit charging they con-
spired to eliminate competi-
ton in steel bars for concrete
in seven Western States.
The United States Govern
ment filed suit yesterday in
United States District Court
here, accusing an Oakland trade
association, six steel companies
and IL fabricating firms with
getting control of rs per cent
of the market in 1858 in Ari-
zona, California, Idaho, Ne
vada, Oregon, Utah and Wash
ington.
Attorney General Rogers
asked that the Western Rein
forcing Steel Fabricators Asso-
citation of Oakland be dissolved
and that it and 18 other de-
PENDANTS, including Bethlehem
and U. S. Steel, be declared
conSpirators in violation OF
antitrust statutes.
The complaint said they con-
spired to restrict foreign i'm
ports and impede small fab
ricators, and used noncompeti-
tive and collusive bids to con-
troll the market in the rough
reinforcing steel used in con-
crete known as "rebars."
Direct Sale Blocked
Steel companies sometimes
make these rebars themselves
out of smooth bars, but also
sell smooth bars to fabricators
for processing into rebars, or
even directly to contractors for
processing on the job.
