Strategy To Defeat ] Kefauver Unfolding 1 Opponents Hope For Loss In Primaries WashiMjtpn, Feb. 6 — (UP) — Pro-Trunian Democrats hoped today to squelch the early season presidential-bid of Sen. Estes Kefauver by defeating him in three key state primaries. f The party regulars are counting on President Truman himself to carry the ball against the Tennessee senator in California as well as New Hampshire. Sen. Robert 9. Kerr (D-Okla.), a Truman supporter, will challenge Kefapver in Nebraska. The triple-pronged "stop Kefauver” strategy unfolded as Mr. Truman gave fresh evidence of his to remain in the driver's seat of the Democratic party tdis year, whether or not he runs far He told a-Vefers«A of Foreign Wars dinner here last night that he expects to have “a lot of fun” ‘ during the coming political campaign, and hopes it will have l ‘the ijight result." “When the time comes, I am going to try to tell you what the tight result is,” he said. But he added with a grin, “that is ndt an announcement.” * \ Democratic leaders generally agreed that no clue to Mr. Truman's intentions could be read into his decision yesterday to let his name stay in the March 11 j New; Hampshire presidential primary against Kefauver. He previously had said he would withdraw. • Sen. Qparles W. Tobey IR-fc.H.) commented tfiat Mr. Truman’s tactics “remind me of off-again, onagaih, gone-again Finnegan.” j But- Democrats skid there was a Simple explanation: the president howpd to pressure from organization Democrats in New Hampshire, who, said they needed the president’ll name on the ticket to pretent: Kefauver’s ’irregulars” from v capturing the primary. A similar situation is developing in California, and regular democratic leaders there are hope-' fnl that they can “draft" Mt. Truman just as the New Hampshire faithful did': National chairman Frank E. McKinney said he will urge Mr. Truman to run in Cali--1 fo>nia as well as New Hampshire.
