Fail to Win

By IRVING LEIBOWITZ Times Staff Writer

DETROIT, June 16—Dwight D. Eisenhower's private conference with top Indiana Republicans here touched off a desperate—but futile—bid by Eisenhower forces to grab control of the state Republican Party. The power grab failed when Sen. William E,:Jenner yesterday refused to help oust State Chairman Cale J. Holder. The Senator angrily stormed out of a meeting in the SheratonCadillac Hotel after Elmer (Little Doe) Sherwood, an Eisenhower leader, demanded a purge of Mr. Holder. Sen. Jenner denounced Mr. Sherwood and left, Eugene Pulliam, publisher of

“It was a mistake for Sherwood to be here in the first place,” said Biuce Hardy, Lexington, 8th District Eisenhower manager, “He'll ruin the Republican Party yet.” Mr, Sherwood’s attempted power grab marred an otherwise “happy and harmonious” luxury air junket to visit Gen. Eisenhower. All expenses were paid by the Indiana Eisenhower Committee except in cases where Taft delegates demanded to pay their own way. Fourteen of Indiana's 32 delegates to the July 7 National Convention in Chicago met the former Buropean Supreme Allied

Commander along with 20 other | Hoosier supporters of Eisenhower,

After chatting pleasantly with Gen. Eisenhower for an hour, 13 Indiana delegates indicated they still favor Sen. Robert A. Taft for President. The sole Eisenhower delegate present, Mr. Pulliam, forecast five or six Hoosier delegates would rally around the General's colors at the convention. ‘Taft is Best’

This was immediately disputed by Lisle Wallace, Taft's campaign manager in Indiana and a delegate himself. He said 30 of the. state's 32 delegates would vote for Taft and added:

“After visiting the General personally, I'm more convinced than ever that Bob Taft is the candidate and will be nominated and elected.” For the Hoosier Republicans attending the giant “I Like Ike” rally in this vast industrial city, the highlight was their private conference with Gen. Eisenhower in the hotel’s presidential suite. In answer to a query by Mayor Alex Clark, Gen. Eisenhower explained his views. on foreign policy.

That would top yesterday’s high of 95, hottest June 15 in Indianapolis in the 81 years the Weather Bureau has been keeping records. It was boiling all over Hoosierland today.

Their office has fans but is not air-conditioned.

They were busy with phone people who wanted to know how hot it was, how hot it had been, how hot it was going to be but mostly when it would end. It will drop to 65 here tomorrow night, the weatherman said The 2900 at Harvester were told to report back to work at 7 a. m. tomorrow, On June 27, 2600 of them will be laid off for “at least two weeks” because of the steel strike.
