Sees Stevenson Nomination On Initial Ballot Two Senators Claim Stevenson To Be Nominated Early WASHINGTON (UP) —. Two senate supporters of Adlai E. Stevenson t said today that Stevenson hns a good chance of winning the Democratic presidential nomination on the first ballot. This belief was expressed by Sen A. S. (Mikel Monroney (D Okla.) chairman of Stevenson’s snesa-ers bureau four years ago, and Sen. Clinton P. Anderstfti (D---n m.) rr In order to win nomination, a Democratic candidate must have 68(>H convention votes. The latest United Press tabulation shows that Stevenson, as of today, has known first-ballot strength of 411 votes, compared with 146M* for Sen. Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.) and 19914 for New York Gov.

550 and SOO votes firmly pledged for fiAtballot support. He said there ia the "strongeet possibility” that as Stevenson’s strength begins to show on the first ballot, delegations committed to favorite sons will begin switching to him and give him immediate nomina tion. Anderson linked his prediction to Stevenson's “enthusiastic" reception at last week's Washington dinner honoring Sen. Walter F. George (DUa.) retiring “dean” of the senate. Most of the Democratic party’s top brass was present “I think the dinner, and the widespread enthusiasm shown for Mr. Stevenson, indicates that he ia now. likely to be nominated on ballot." Anderson said. Other political developments: Harriman said in Omaha, Neb.. Sunday that reports that he wants to split the south from the Democratic T>arty as "complete fabrication and smear tactics.” But he insisted “there can be no compromise on civil rights" at the Democratic convention. He said he took such a stand, not to drive the south from the party, but because he believed the party should take a firm position. ■ On a television program (Reporters’ Roundup) Sunday, Harriman’s political adviser. New York Democratic leader Carmine De Sapio, predicted the Democratic convention will reach agreement on a civil rights platform without a southern bolt. Democratic national chairman Paul M. Butler repeated again Sunday hia belief that President Elsenhower’s health may force him to withdraw as Republican candidate for re-election. Butler noted on a television program (Face the Nation. CBS) that Mr. Eisenhower was quoted in Panama Saturday as saying he felt fine but then adding: “I haven’t much strength, but I keep going.” GOP national chairman Leonard W. Hall announced that the Repubtit nil vUu Vt*TlviVti, BvlitTviuieti tv uf*gin in San Francisco Aug. 20, will run four days as originally planned. There had been proposals that it be shortened to three days. Sen. William E. Jenner (R-Ind.) was quoted Sunday as saying the Republicans will run Mr. Eisenhower “if they have to stuff him.” The remark was attributed to Jenner by Sen. Warren O. Magnuson (D-Wash.) during questioning on a television program (Meet the Press NBCb * » - ' County Rural Youth Has Outing Sunday Thirty-five members and guests of the Adams county rural county rural youth spent Sunday at Pokagon state park near Angola The members enjoyed swimming, boating. games and a picnic dinner.
