Taft Condemns Smear Tactics Against Ike Terms Attacking Ike As Highly Disgusting WASHINGTON, (UP) — Ben. Robert A. Taft Monday condemned what he called the “smearing tactics” used by some persons against Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower apd California’s Gov. Earl Warren.( Ta‘ft told a news conference he was “particularly disgusted” by a piece of campaign literature entitled “Headlines” written by Joseph P. Kamp, executive vice chairman of the Constitutional Educational League Inc. and distributed to the Maryland GOP delegation. , Asked if any Taft organization funds had been used tp finance such attacks on his two rivals for “the GOP presidential nomination, the Ohio Republican snapped! “Certainly not.” At the same time, Taft rejected charges by the Elsenhower* camp that his delegate victory in the Texas Republican convention was “a steal.” He said he was sure the dispute over the Texas delegatino would be fought obt before the GOP national convention which opens in Chicago jhily 7. Taft said he did not believe the Texas delegation would vote in a convention contest involving its own state: However, he took issue With suggestions made bjf Eisehhower’s forces that contested delegations should refrain from all voting in the convention until the contests arc settled. . < v “I don’t see how Gen. Eisenhower can ask to rule out every contested delegation,” Taft said. He said “fake contests” could be filed by each side in order to disqualify its rivals, down to the point where \‘You can’t run a convention, you would rule out the whole convention.” | !; \. Taft said he expected to answer fully Eisenhower charges of a Texas steal in a speech or statement of his own later. Taft will meet with the Maryland state delegation at Bartimore later Monday and then will travel to Pennsylvania for a conference with that state’s delegation, as suggested by Eisenhower forces. But he said this would be unnecessary because his people had polled the delegation and found 27 votes for Taft, I'6 for Eisenhower arid three uncommitted. The Eisenhower camp disputes this claifn. The mounting roar of the TaftEisenhower battle over Texas delegation drowned out art urgent “Unity” plea from senate Republican leader Styles Bridges of New Hampshire. Bridges warned his party that it will go down to defeat in November if it is split wide open by pre-convention “bickering.” \
Acheson Starts On 18,000-Mile Trip Confers First With British And French ■ • LONDON, UP — Secretary of state Dean Acheson arrived from Washington Monday to disciuss with British and French leaders ‘‘the great common task which our three -countries are carrying forward in the world today.” In a crowded week, Acheson will .confer here on such critical issues as Germany, relations with Soviet Russia, the Middle East and the Far East, including the Korean War. He will fly on to Berlin and Vienna, islands in Soviet-held territory, to confer with “the leaders of the brave people of those cities who are defending their liberties against .such harassment,” he said at the airport. Then he will fly to the “great sister republic” of the United States —a total trip pf Ilf,ooo miles. At the airport, where foreign secretary Anthony Eden and American Ambassador Walter S. Gifford met him, Acheson said he will discuss a “very wide” range bf problems with Eden and French foreign minister Robert Schuman. ‘These conferences will deal with the great common task which our three countries are carrying forward in the world today,” Achesdn said. “It is very important and useful that we have these talks between the three of us in which we can consider the complex problems around the table in intimacy and quiet.”

Illinois To Select More Taft Delegates State Convention Is Held By Republicans SPRINGFIELD, ill. UP — Illinois Republicans were expected to hand Sen. Robert A. Taft 10 more votes for GOP presidential norrtinee Monday and a virtual Clean sweep of the state’s 60-man convention delegation. A strong pro-Taft atmosphere prevailed as 5,000 Republicans rallied at their state convention to complete their roster‘of Illinois national convention delegates. The Illinois convention also wrote an end to the long tasik of picking the 1,206 delegates from all states arid territories who will meet in Qhicago July 7 to decide upon the GOP presidential candidate. , i Taft got 49 of the" 50 Illinois delegates elected April 8. So, with the 10 to be chosen today, it appeared the Ohio senator would get 59 Illinois convention votes to only one for Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower. i ■ The United Press count of delegates before Monday’s Convention showed 481 for Taft, 405 for Eisenhower. Names of ihe 10 delegates-at-large were finally agreed upon early Monday at the close pf a statehouse conference between strongly pro-Taft party leaders, Including Sen. Everett M. Dirksen and state treasurer William G. Stratton'. All 10 are regarded as sure Taft backers. The capital was jammed for the political show and hotel space was at a premium. Hundreds of visitors sported Taft and Stratton buttons on their lapels. Sentiment for Eisenhower was not apparent, or at lease was well hidden. I. » . Wadsworth Eulogized By President Truman WASHINGTON, UP — President Sunday eulogized James W. Watlsworth, chairman? of the national security training commission, as a “true patriot and an outstanding public servant.” i Wadsworth, former U.S. senator and representative from y New Yor,k, died of cancer here Saturday night. He was 74. Mr. Truman said in a statement that Wadsworth, who helped write the draft Iriw in Wotld War I and 11, “was a man to whom the country is greatly obligated.”
