Branigin Stock For Candidacy Mounting Matthew Welsh Not Governor Candidate INDIANAPOLIS (INS) —The stock of Roger Branigin for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination jumped today after Matthew Welsh said he would not be a candidate for personal reasons. Branigin, a Lafayette attorney and former president of the Indiana state bar association, had indicated to friends he will run for governor, if he can obtain the nomination without a bitter factional fight in his party. # Welsh, a former district attorney and also once a member o< the state house of representatives. said he must devote full time to his business because of illness of his parents. A formidable boom had been developed for him in the seventh district. Another Lafayette man also has been mentioned as a candidate. H< is Thomas Johnston, publicity director of Purdue University and close friend Os former 1 Governor Henry F. Schricker and many publishers and editors. During the week-end. high Democratic leaders also .urged Marion county sheriff Robert O’Neal, of Indianapolis, to run. O'Neal, a former chief of the state police, was the only Democrat to win a major office in the 1954 Marion county election. O’Neal said he had not yet decided whether to cast his hat in the ring. Other possible aspirants are Mayor Ralph Tucker of Terre Haute and B. Howard Caughran, of Indianapolis, another former Federal District Attorney. The upsurge of possible candidacies appeared to follow logically the sweeping Democratic victories in the municipal elections. Word also was received from Muncie that Marshall Hanley, of that city, is ready to run for the Democratic bid for United States senator. Hanley has served also os federal district attorney. Hanley was president of the Indiana Young Democrats organization and «,s law clerk for supreme court justice Sherman Minton when he was judge of the federal circuit court of appeals at Chicago. The Democratic trend may encourage former secretary of agriculture Claude Wickard. of Cam den. to try for senator, according to the politicos. Wickard several months ago denied that he is interested. Word circulated also was J, Rgjpb Thompson, Seymour ice cream manufacturer and farmer and former house of representatives member, is inclined to run lor lieutenant governor. -He is a close friend of Branigin. The Branigin leaders are attempting to unite both Democratic factions behind his candidacy. They are the groups led. in general, by Schricker and by former national committeeman Frank M. McHale.
