Eisenhower's election, the GOP might lose some vital Middle Western states in November, and suffer another humiliating bust out—its sixth in a row. The time for a meeting between Gen. Eisenhower and Sen. Taft, and for attempts to melt the ice between them, is going fast. Sen. Taft is in Washington today, for the wedding of his son Horace. He planned to leave with Mrs. Taft for Cincinnati tonight. Gen. Eisenhower flew here to till the sfony soil of another patch of Taft territory.

If the behind the scenes peacemakers like National Chairman Arthur © Summerfield and Sen. Frank Carlson of Kansas worked fast, they could probably arrange for Eisenhower to make a pilgrimage to Cincinnati tomorrow.

lke Must Meet Taft's Terms to Get Support

By CHARLES EGGER Scripps-Howard Staff Writer

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9— Dwight D. Eisenhower will have to lay it on the line before he'll

get Sen. Robert A. Taft's all-out support in the presidential campaign. The showdown will come in a head-to-head meeting within the next few days. Sen. Taft says he wants to hear from the General himself what kind of administration he plans if elected. What Ike has to say will determine how strong Mr, Taft will support the General. It’s a ticklish spot for Ike. A

lot of Taft supporters, particular-| ly in the Midwest, have been sitting on their hands since the Re-

publican Convention.

On the other hand, many Eislose ground elsewhere if he identifies

Leach of the Chicago Daily News that he would not stand on ceremony but would fly to whatever place a meeting with Ike is arranged for. “What do you want to talk to Gen. Eisenhower about?” Sen. Taft was asked.

‘Several Things’

“A lot of things,” he replied, “I want especially to know what kind of an administration he will have as President.” “Are you very far apart on continuance of the Taft-Hartley labor law?” Sen. Taft was asked. “I don’t know,” the Senator replied. “That is one of several things I want to find out about.” Sen. Taft made it clear that his participation in the campaign on an all out basis for Gen. Eisenhower depends on that talk between them. “I will do whatever is possible to assure his election, but,” he rsaid;~“the-part IT will "play in the campaign is still open to wide distinction on ways, methods and extent. I'm also going to see what they want me to do in it.” It was evident, by his repeated returning to the importance of his talks with Ike that Mr. Taft {hinges much on that word “pos|sible.”
