Democrats In Kentucky Seek Party Control State Committee Meeting Today To Select Candidate WASHINGTON < UP)—Kentucky Democrat. are choosing sides for a contest like the recent one in Texas for control of the state party organization. ■ The chief rivals are Gov. A. B. • (Happy) Chandler and' assistant senate leader Earle C. Clements, who have fought political duels before. Because the contest also involves a 30-vote Democratic national convention delegation, it can he important to Adlai K. Stevenson, the pace-setting candidate for the presidential nomination. Clements is considered a Stevenson supporter while Chandler himself is a potential favorite son and dark horse contender for the Democratic nomination. The prospective Kentucky battle resembles the one in Texas because it matches supporters of a tT. S. senate leader against those of a sitting governor. In Texas, senate Democratic leader Lyndon B. Johnson defeated Gov. jAllan Shiver* to become chairman of the national .convention delegation and a favorite eon candidate for the presidential nomInatioji. The stage was set for a ne* round in the Kentucky baltle todan' The state Democratic executive committee convened in Louisville to nominate a candidate for “jftie fonr-year unexpired term of Jthe late Sen. Alben Barkley. The /nominee will run In the Nov. .6 election against a Remiblican candidate to be selected witer.

Chandler Monday appointed a close friend and political ally, attorney Joseph J. Lenry. to fill j Barkley's seat from now uiitll the; Nov. 6 election. The question was whether the committee would follow suit by homtnating Leary, a Chandler man. for the four-year term or select a member of t,he Clements faction. Former Gov. Lawrence W. Wetherby. an ally of Clements, has been mentioned for the nomination. The present state committee, which goes out of existence July 3. is dominated by the Clements factiou. '; ■ z ■ ' Sen. Andrew F. Schoeppel (Kan.) chairman of the senate Republican campaign committee, predicted Monday night that President Eisenhower will disclose at his next news conference whether he still plana to run for re election. Schoeppel said he '‘fully, expects” Mr. Eisenhower to'be a candidate. Sen. Estes Kefauver's campaign chairmen and supporters from 13 states declared after a Washing ton conference Monday that they will concentrate between now and the Democratic convention on “amassing sufficient delegate strength” to give Kefauver “a stronger fighting chance for the nomination." They declared that Kefauver has “as good a chance as anyone else of getting the nomination." Republican national chairman Leonard W. Hall said in Hartford. Conn v Monday night that the recent presidential primary contests between Stevenson and Kefauver focused attention on the “bickering and squabbles that beset the Democratic party.” Accuses FHA Head Os Drinking Heavily Charges Are Aired At Senate Hearing WASHINGTON (UP) —Robert B. MeLenish. head of the farmers home administration, was accused at a congressional hearing Monday of drinking heavily and getting “intoxicated" in the presence of his employes. The charges were leveled by Mrs. Kathryn Carter, Bozeman Mont., housewife who used to work in the FHA's Montana office. She told a senate civil service subcommittee that McLeaish and her own boss, former Montana | FHA director Carl O. Hansen, got intoxicated at a dinner at the Frontier Club at West Yellowstone. Mont., Ln June, 1984. The dinner followed a meeting of severer sUte PHA directors. — + Mrs. Carter testified publicly late Monday in connection with the subcommittee's general investigation of alleged violations of civil service regulations. McLenish had no immediate comment. He is scheduled to testify later this week. Mrs. Carter, a pretty brunette, said at the dinner she sat with McLeaish. Hanse, and Homer Cogdell, an assistant director of the agency. She said Hansen became “high ly inebriated" and that Mclxsaish and Cogdell were “intoxicated." Another employe in Hansen's office "gave him a rescue,” she said, and a friend took her away because she “was dying by inches." Asked if McLeaish was as drunk as Hansen, she said that "nobody can drink as much as Hansen.” Floyd F. Higbee, ousted FHA Colorado director, testified McLeaish drank a fifth of whisky in •?n hour and a half or two hours on One visit to Denver and five drinks in a few minutes on another visit. Nearly 6.5U0 students, most of them American servicemen studying in off-duty time, are enrolled in the University of Maryland's overseas program. Democrat Want Ad. Brin* Rsaultt
Yugoslavia, Russian Parties Cooperate ! President Tito Says Groundwork Is Laid MOSCOW (UP) “ The Yugoslav | and Soviet Communist parties will ( cooperate with each other directly i in the future, according to Yugoslav President Tito. Tito told newsmen Monday night the groundwork for such coopera tlon had been laid In his talks with Soviet leaders here but that another meeting wil be heeded to , establish a concrete formula. —-JJ Such direct cooperation would’ rule out any return to the Cominform which was broken up earlier . this year. Tito pulled out of the Cominform in 1948 when he broke , with Josef Stalin. The Cominform was an organisation for interna ; rvonal Communist cooperation. In any case. Tito said, his coun-. try's relations with the West would ■ not change. Tito made himself available to Western newsmen for questioning; on his talks with Soviet leader# at a Yugoslav embassy reception. “We talked about different forms of cooperation between the parties but nothing concrete was decided and there will probably be another senational. Our party relations meeting,” he said. “We do not expect anything will be on the same principle as the cooperation between our two states. "We are pretty much in agreement about future cooperation, not within the framework of a general organization, but in the form of a bilateral cooperation." He said the talks have touched on economic matters but not military matters. Acreage Reserve Under Soil Bank Department Lists Reduction Goals WASHINGTON (UP)—The agriculture department hopes to get farmers to put 8% to 15 million acres in the acreage reserve of the soil bank this year. For doing so and thereby reducing production of basic crops, the government will pay farmers $4 to 3366 an acre. They money will coine from the 31.200,000,000 soil bank funds. For 1956. the reductions may bp accomplished by underplanting. by loss through natural destruction. or by plowing or cutting the crop before a deadline established by the department. A department official said these are the hope—for acreage reduction goals for this Year: Corn. 2 to 4 million acres: wheat. 5 to 8 million acres: cotton. 1% to 3 million acres; peanuts, 50.000 to 100.000 acres: rice, 50,000 to 100.000 acres. The acreage reductions fall short of the goal of 20 to 25 million acres for cotton, wheat, corn and rice which secretary of agriculture Ezra T. Benson outlined to the house agriculture committee on Feb. 21. Benson told the committee the soil bank should be loaded with 3 to 5 million acres of cotton; 12 to 15, million acres of wheat; 4 to 16 million acres of corn; and 300,000 acres of rice. The department said the soil hank now is getting under way throughout the country .at a part of the national farm program. It pointed out that “even if farmers have already planted 1956 crops they can make adjstments and earn soil bank payments this year." , 5 Acreage reserve agreements must be signed by the farer nmot later than July 20, the department reminded. A department official said most soil bank payments will average under 350 an acre. June 5 Injuries Fatal To Woman KOKOMO, Ind. (UP)—Mrs. Ola Brooker, 73.
