MacArthur delivered his keynote speech. Indiana Taft backers roared their approval. The two Hoosier Eisenhower delegates, Eugene Pulliam, publisher of the Star and News and William Hutcheson,-president emeritus of the AFL's United Brotherhood of Carpenters, did not attend the convention's evening session for the MacArth speech. 3 Lisle Wallace, ‘Sen. Taft's Indiana campaign manager, predicted a Taft-MacArthur combination would “make a great ticket, a sure winner in November.” About the MacArthur speech, Mr. Wallace said: “It was a great speech made by the General President Truman fired. If the General President Truman ‘didn’t fire would fight the Democrats as hard as he has been - fighting Bob Taft he'd be {more popular with real Republicans,” ‘Wonderful Speech’

Sen. Jenner, who faces Democrat Henry F, Schricker in a race for the Senatp a fall, made {this comment on the MacArthur

address: “Wonderful speech. He sounded
