members of the Indiana congressiohal delegation at a dinner at the Statler hotel here June 4.
Announcement of the plan was made by Charles Baird, secretary Gillie (R. Ind), who is the liason man between the congressional delegation and the state committee, " Donaldson G. Trone, assistant treasurer of the state committee, talked over the plan here. Such functions have previously been attended by Governor Ralph Gates, but Mr. Baird said he did not know if the governor is coming this time or not. The governor is under fire from Senator Homer E. Capehart (R. Ind.) who fears that if Mr. Gates continues to control G. O. P. politics in the state he might not be renominated for the senate in 1950. Although Mr. Capehart claims he has solid support from the entire Washington delegation in his battle against Mr. Gates, none of the others are doing any active fighting. They say they are too busy for such business in a non-campaign year. .
