Robert A. Taft put new power into his drive for the Republican presiden- tial nomination today, winning ,the | vital Wisconsin primary and.taking 24 of the state's 30 delegates. The total vote, exceeding one million, broke all primary records. With 22 precinets still unreported Taft was leading Gov. Earl Warren of California by 53,000 votes. Har- cid E. Stassen, former governor of Minnesota, was a distant third. Warren and Stassen, together, racked up a bigger total than Taft’s. The senator, at the latest count, was holding 40.6 per cent of all the. Republican votes cast. | But Taft's 24-6 victory in dele- ‘gates was possibly more important |since Wisconsin delegates to the nominating convention are pledged to support the winner of the. pri- mary.
