York's Mr. Republican, Page 6 wo Wars Wear THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ‘Thursday, April 24, 1952 Combat Flying Glamor So Thin That Military Believes Incentive Needed - Political Notes By The Associated Press With Gen. Dwight D., Eisenhow- er’s estimated 220 delegates press- 4ng hard behind his own 239, Sen. Robert Taft said today he believes he can win the majority of the @0 GOP delegates at stake in the week ahead. ‘Referring to presidential prefer- ence primaries and conventions which will select delegates in Colo- gado, Utah, Delaware, Arizona and Arkansas, Taft said: “We face a fight everywhere but it looks pretty good.” But Eisenhower's campaign managers were optimistic too. ‘They predicted Wednesday, in the ‘wake of the general’s victories in New York and Penrisylvania, that he will be nominated on the first ballot at the National Con- vention, Latest reports from New York, ‘where Republicans last Tuesday chose 90 of the state’s 96 dele- ates to the Chicago convention, indicated that 81 were for Eisen- hower, nine for Taft. But Taft dis- puted this, claiming 17. New York’s State GOP Commit- tee will select six delegates-at- large May 7. All of these are ex pected to be for Eisenhower since Gov. Thomas E. Dewey is an Eisenhower man—and he’s New Although the political spotlight ‘was centered on the Neck-and-neck race between Taft and Eisenhower, there were rumblings in the Dem- cratic camp which gave promise of stealing some of the headlines: Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey of | ; Minnesota is said to be more re- eeptive to suggestions from “nu- merous” friends that he seek the Presidential nomination. These friends said privately Humphrey has not mae up his. mind, but recently has declined to say he would reject the nomination—as he had earlier. And W. Averell Harriman, latest tO announce for the Democratic Romination, touched off the possi- bility the foreign-aid program may be drawn into politics by refusing to give up his post as mutual se- gurity director, ~Rep. Richards (D.-S. C.) of the Foreign Affairs Committee a backer of Sen. Richard Rus- gell (D.-Ga.) for the Democratic Romination—said Harriman should either resign his post or drop out @f the presidential race. Harriman replied it is a “com- mon and well accepted practice for Men hojding public office in this Sountry to seek nomination for public office.” ..
