Race Called Pre-'48 Test 0f Taft, Dewey

Leaders Doubt Outsider Will Win

By LYLE C. WILSON United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Dec. 28—~The bitterly-fought house Republican leadership contest brought talk of a compromise candidate today. But the talk was unconvincing. Leaders said they still expected the choice to be made among Reps. Charles A. Halleck of Indiana, Clarence J. Brown of Ohio, Thomas A. Jenkins of Ohio and Everett Dirksen of Illinois. They are the men who have an-,

" nounced their candidacies or hold

themselves “available” for the second biggest role in the Republican congressional show. The biggest job is the speakership which is assured for Rep. Joseph W. Martin Jr, of Massachusetts.

Halleck Given Advantage Rep. Brown and Rep. Helleck are regarded as the principal contenders for the leadership, and Mr. Halleck is given the best chance | to win. | Out in the open now are charges that the leadership is all mixed up with 1948 presidential politics. Mr. Halleck is charged with being the candidate of Governor Thomas A. Dewey of New York. Mr. Brown is described by others as the leadership favorite of Senator Robert A. Taft of Ohio. | Senator Taft and Governor Dewey are standout prospects for the 1946 Republican presidential nomination. Wadsworth Is Mentioned The name of Rep. James W. Wadsworth of New York is most frequently mentioned as a compromise leadership candidate, Mr. Wadsworth is a capeble elder statesman and popular member of the house. He formerly served in the senate, has been in the house since 1932. But Mr. Wadsworth will be 70 years old next summer. He is rich and of a relaxing disposition. It probably would take a lot of argument to persuade Mr. Wadsworth to take on the leadership burden. Others suggested include Reps. Leslie C. Arends of Illinois, Jesse P. Wolcott of Michigan, Charles A. Wolverton of New Jersey, and Walter C. Ploeser of Missouri. House Republicans will caucus pext week. Party leaders have been hoping that before the Republican members get together some agreeraent can be worked out on the leadership to avoid an angry caucus contest.

Talmadge’s Son

Seeks Father's Job

ATLANTA, Ga., Dec. 28 (U. P.) —|

Herman Talmadge, son of the late Governor-elect Eugene Talmadge, offered himself to the people of Georgia today to carry on the principles of white supremacy advocated by his father. It was the first statement from young Talmadge since his father’s death precipitated a political feud for a successor to the outgoing Governor Ellis Arnall. Mr. Talmadge campaigned ona

Negroes from the Democratic primary. “I feel it is my duty to my father

"and to the people of Georgia,” he

said, “to carry, on the fight for which he fought so hard.” Mr. Arnall plans to step aside to permit Lt. Goy.-elect M. E. Thompson to succeed him. But Mr. Talmadge’s supporters claim that under the ‘state constitution the legislature must elect a governor in this emergency. Both Thompson and Talmadge forces have lined up for a heated battle.

Committee Gets

Report on Bilho

WASHINGTON, Dec. 28 (U. P). —A senate war investigating subcommittee today submitted to the full committee a report criticizing Senator Theodore G. Bilbo (D. Miss.) for his relations with Mis-| sissippi war contractors. Comumittee ‘sources said the report makes no recommendation on the question whether Mr, Bilbo should be denied his seat In the senate, it merely criticizes him for allegedly accepting “gifts” from contracts he sponsored for government jobs in the war program. The committee staff began polling meinbers on whether they approve the subcommittee report. The staff expected the report would be made public Thursday. The report was prepared by Senator Homer Ferguson (R. Mich). It was based on the recent seven-day public hearing which brought out evidence that Senator Bilbo received an expensive automobile and some furniture as Christmas gifts from Mississippi contractors.

Veto Question Snags Atomic Treaty | in UN

+ Big 5 Talks Seek Full Agreement

By JAMES E. ROPER United Press Staff Correspondent LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y., Dec. 28, —Big Five representatives began private confesgnces today in an effort to patch up differences threatening to wreck plans for international control of atomic power, Private negotiations among key delegations started after the United Nations atomic energy commission split almost evenly “on one vital issue, The disputed point was whether the Big Five should be allowed to use veto power to block punishment of a country making atomic bombs illegally. Six Against Six The United States said it would not join in a treaty to outlaw atomic weapons and pool atomic information ynless the treaty provided automati¢ punishment for violators. China and four smaller countries backed the U. 8. stand. Their view collided with the wishes of two other Big Five powers— Russia and France. They insisted that under the United Nations charter, punishment directed by the security council must be subject to the Big Five veto. Poland, Great Britain, Canada and The Netherlands sympathized with the latter view to varying \degrees. ‘Vote Due Monday

Each side argued its case with equal vigor. Until all the Big Five powers and practically all of the smaller nations agree, there can be no hope for international regulation

of atomic activities, The crisis may come Monday when - the atomic commission

planned a final vote. Delegates hoped, however, that week-end conferences could help reconcile the sharp differences. While the bitter split over the veto frightened many delegates, they were cheered by the fact that members of the atomic commission agreed on every other detail of the American atomic energy program sponsored by Bernard Baruch. Four Words Cause Trouble

Commission members during eight hours of closed meetings tentatively approved provisions for international inspection oi atomic facilities, and the eventual junking of all existing atomic weapons, They accepted page after page of the Baruch proposals, only to stumble over four words—whether treaty violators should be protected from punishment “by veto or otherwise.” The white-haired Mr. Baruch said that unless those words stayed in, he could not ask the U. 8. senate to approve an atomic treaty. This would mean that the U. 8. would keep its atomic secrets.

Couple's Death Probed in Algiers

WASHINGTON, Dec. 28 (U. P.) — The state department has cabled Algiers for further details about the sudden death of an American
