THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Page 10 Monday, October 18, 1954 Utah Politicos To Decide On Stringfellow By JOHN V. HURST SALT LAKE CITY —Troubleq Utah Republican party leaders meet in Salt Lake City tonight to consider the political fate of a man they had thought—only 48 hours . before—to be a shoo-in for the ist District congressional seat he now holds. _ The meeting was hurriedly scheduled over the. weekend after Rep. Donglas R. Stringfellow (R- Utah) Saturday night disclosed he was not, as he had claimed in Many quarters including the Con- gressional Record, the hero of a secret, behind-the-lines mission in. _ to World War II Germany to cap.| ture a scientist. With tears running ‘down his cheeks, the 32-year-old disabled veteran had appeared on a hastily arranged television program to say that his story of wartime cloak- and - dagger heroism — recounted “over a decade when I had made ‘over 200 speeches in a single year” was false. Stringfellow offered to withdraw from the congressional race but left the decision up to Utah’s 128- member Republican State Commit- tee. State GOP Chairman 0. J. Wil- kinson said that county and other He said reaction to Stringfellow’s disclosure at state party headquar- ters was “tremendous,” and that a “large volume” of the telephone calls and telegrams indicated the would still vote for the con- ; made his electrify- “EARLY-BIRD BARGAINS” Thru BOND Asst'd.

Grang- er, had little chance of beating the congressman. And yesterday, there were many who were still inclined to believe — privately — that Stringfellow could win anyway if left on the GOP ticket. A number of Repub- lican leaders indicated they felt this to be the case, but said they were still doubtful as to which way they would decide on the question of allowing him to run. Sen. Wallace F. Bennett (R- Utah) said he thought Stringfellow “still is a disabled veteran who has established a more or less normal life through a display of great courage and hard work . . , T have not lost my faith in him.” Sen. Arthur V. Watkins, the Utah Republican who headed the McCarthy censure committee and who was with Stringfellow when he made his public statement Sat- . urday, said, “It takes a big man to do this.” Democrats were silent yesterday and efforts to locate opponent Granger were fruitless, The comment came Saturday from Democratic State Chairman Milton L. Weilenmann, who e sympathy for Stringfellow but add- ed, “I don’t think that the man should repent by asking to be elect- ed to Congress.” Stringfellow’s story had brought him national renown and had placed him much in demand as an inspiration speaker.
