George Humphrey and GOP national chairman Leonard Hall made speeches in his behalf. Dilworth, insisting the issues were purely local, stated he would continue the reform policies of incumbent Democratic Mayor Joseph Sill Clark, Jr. The mayor-elect scored an even greater triumph than Clark, who defeated the Republican mayoralty candidate. Dr. Daniel A. Poling, by 124.610 votes in 1951, ending 67 years of GOP city rule. Tuesday's Democratic sweep, incidentally, boosted the political future of Clark, who is expected to attempt to unseat Republican U. S. Sen, James H. Duff in 1956. And the continued Democratic trend in Philadelphia, third largest U. S. city, could also help swing Pennsylvania for the party in next year's presidential balloting. The commonwealth gave Presided Eisenhower a 270,000 • vote lead over Adlai Stevenson in 1952. HUGE VICTORY (Continued Fro-m Page One) ocratic mayor in history and Orawfordsville went Democratic municipally for the first time in 34 years. Other unusual switches to the Democrats were recorded in Elwood, where Wendell Willkie was born, Warsaw, Peru, LaPorte, Lebanon and Michigan City. There was one exception to the rule. Ligohler switched from a Democratic to a GOP administra- , tion. However, the only woman nom- | inee for mayor—and a Democratic ! one—lost to the Republicans at i West Lafayette., She was Mrs. Ruth Steers, wife of a Purdue University professor. A number of other traditionally- : Republican cities remained in the GOP fold. They included Noblesville. Rushville, Gas City, AlexI andria, Valparaiso, Angola, Bedford. Cannelton, Crown Point, Hobart, Martinsville, Nappanee, Tipton. Dunkirk, Elkhart, Greencastle and Wlnamac. Other Democratic wins occurred at Auburn. Batesville, Berne.

Mount Vernon, Portland, (Richmond, Salem, Seymour, Washington and Whiting. Os national significance was the huge triumph of the Indianapolis Democratic nominee, former Mayor Phillip L- Bayt, who downed the GOP nominee. James O. Birr, by almost 17*000 votes.

FARM BUREAU (Continued From Page OnS) will offer legislation next year to force the “orderly liquidation” of all surplus crops owned by Commodity Credit Corporation. He also recommended more spending for farm research and pleaded for farmers to “hold on" until America’s population catches up with capacity to produce food. He said that was coming in a few years. Humphrey took sharp issue with this phase of Anderson's program, v He asked: "What's the farmer going to 'hold on' with? Strong price supports give him a life preserver and a safety belt for the present. In three years agricultural prices have gone down over 20 percent.” - Curtis said the farm dispute "won’t be solved by pied pipers whose sole interest is the farmers' votes.” . He declared: "This is an economic problem and it shouldn't be kicked around.
