Even the most extreme Republican would never claim such a landslide in Connecticut. The poll further claims 71 percent for Eisenhower-Nixon in Illinois, 83 percent in Iowa, 74 percent in New York, 74 percent in Pennsylvania, 82 percent in Rhode Island, 78 percent in Texas and 72 percent in West Virginia. Surely even Senator Bridges would not claim this to be sentiment of the people in these States." BUSSES EXAMINATION S£ I bet G 6 H BESEEM Vp«ki mow j Opoa Daily 932 F STREET N.W. IM FEW* * I 9 a.m.-t a.m. CONVENTION Continued From First Page the unit rule is applied Tuesday when the delegation meets again to name its choice for the vice presidential candidate. Mr. Nixon was the winner in the “unit rule” dispute because he has the support of one-third of the delegates named by Senator Knowland plus one-third named by himself. Gov. Knight named the other three and Senator Thomas H. Kuchel was the 70th man. A report gained circulation Friday night that the President would be willing to accept any one of five names for his running mate. In addition to Mr. Nixon, those mentioned were Gov. McKeldin of Maryland, former Gov. Thornton of Colorado, Gov. Langlie of Washington, and Senator Margaret Chase Smith of Maine. In Washington, White House Press Secretary James C. Hagerty said he had never heard of the report. A well-informed source here said today that one of the President’s closest advisors would propose these names to Mr. Eisenhaven for consideration. This source, who is favorable to Mr. Nixon, said privately he understood the move has been “pretty well squashed.” On arriving today, Mr. Nixon said he would gladly abide by the decision of the delegates. He told a press conference at the airport the convention should nominate for Vice President the man who can best fill the office, and put on the best campaign for election of the Republican ticket. Asked to comment on the statement of the Democratic keynoter, Gov. Clement of Tennessee, that he proposed to prove Mr. Nixon called the Democrats the party of treason, Mr. Nixon replied: “I’d be interested in seeing such proof. There is no party of treason in the United States except the Communist Party, and I challenge anybody in the United States to prove I ever said otherwise.” In view of the precedent, Adlai Stevenson established at Chicago when he dramatically threw open the race for second place on the Democratic ticket, the Republicans may want to have several names placed in nomination to avoid the impression that Republican delegates were not given a choice. In answer to a reporter’s question, Senator Bridges said the Republican convention will be as open, in theory, as the Democratic, “but I don’t think it will be as evenly divided.” All Can Offer Names Senator Bridges said any State delegation will be free to offer any name in addition to Mr. Nixon’s when the balloting for Vice President starts. But the Senator added: “I hope they will be badly beaten if they do.” Gov. Herter of Massachusetts, the man Mr. Stassen is pushing to displace the Vice President, has said he will ask that his name be withdrawn if offered. House Republican Leader Martin of Massachusetts, who will be permanent chairman of the Stassen, Bridges Offer Differing Polls on Nixon STAR CONVENTION BUREAU. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 18— Harold E. Stassen told delegates to the Republican National Convention today that a Nation-wide poll showed President Eisenhower would lose eight per cent—or 2.3 million votes—of his campaign strength if Vice President Nixon is renominated. That claim was still hot when Senator Bridges of New Hampshire rushed into battle with a poll report indicating pretty much the opposite. Entering the same press conference room as Mr. Stassen was leaving, Senator Bridges told reporters he had an impartial poll of his own taken four days later than the Stassen sample. He said it showed that 54.3 per cent of those questioned would prefer an Eisenhower-Nixon ticket, while only 25.7 wanted an Eisenhower-Herter ticket. Another 20 per cent voiced no opinion. Poll on Knowing Herter The Bridges poll showed 53 per cent answered “yes” and 47.47 per cent replied “no” to a question: “Do you know who Christian Herter is?” Of those polled 39.6 per cent were Republicans, 37.6 per cent Democrats and 22.8 per cent independents. All of those questioned were asked, "If the election were today would you vote for Eisenhower and Nixon?” He said 57.7 per cent answered “yes” while 35.3 per cent said “no” and 7. Per cent had no opinion. The New Hampshire Republican presented the poll results in a four-page printed pamphlet entitled: “The truth about Nixon and the voters.” He described it as a nonsecret poll conducted by Robert Maheu Associates of Washington, D. C. Senator Bridges said Mr. Mahon is a former FBI agent and uses former agents in his surveys. Asked by a reporter why this point was emphasized, the Senator said it was because of their reliability and the fact that they are usually accurate in gathering information. Conducted in each State, Senator Bridges explained, was conducted in one large city and one large rural area in each State. Passersby were picked at random. The poll said today that if he gets such a statement in writing from Gov. Herter, he will be bound to observe it. But Mr. Martin said that, under the rules, any delegate may vote for anyone he chooses when the roll is called, regardless of whether that name has been placed in formal nomination. Even after Mr. Stevenson departed from the custom of letting the presidential nominee indicate his choice for Vice President, the more ardent supporters of Mr. Stevenson were reported to have rallied support for Senator Kefauver on their own, making it clear they were not speaking for Mr. Stevenson. Choice Up to Delegates Although, Mr. Kefauver has said he would be glad to have Mr. Nixon as his running mate again, he also has emphasized that the choice is one for the delegates to the convention. This gives the Republicans the same chance the Democrats had to ballot on several names. But, as in Chicago, this would not prevent the party leaders from passing the word that one name is preferred above the others. Political observers agree that Mr. Stevenson played a trump card when he stressed the growing importance of the vice presidency and called for an open race. They also feel that he increased the likelihood that the Republicans also may give their convention several names to choose from. Republicans who are running for Congress this year in key States could be given a building by having their names placed in the ballot box. FUEL OIL DELIVERIES TO D.C. F. MARYLAND, VIRGINIA.

In regard to the Stassen poll, Mr. Stassen saw as most significant and threatening the trend Of poll answers to the question: "If Nixon is the vice presidential candidate with Eisenhower whom I do you think you will vote for, Eisenhower or Stevenson?" Answers showed 45.7 per cent, or 27.2 million, for Eisenhower, 39.3 per cent or 23.5 million for Stevenson, 1.2 per cent or 720,000 for someone else for President. Another 10 per cent don't know and 3 per cent refused to reply to the poll takers. Thus 8 per cent of the Eisenhower Vote Nation-wide is lost when the name is combined with Vice President Nixon’s name, or a total of 2,340,000 votes, “Mr. Stassen said at a news conference. Results announced by Mr. Stassen demonstrated, he said, organization pointed to an even greater loss. But the extensive poll by an impartial experienced research organization pointed to an even greater loss than previously estimated. Mr. Stassen warned several weeks ago in an admittedly small survey that the Nixon candidacy would cost President Eisenhower a 6 per cent drop in votes. Mr. Stassen, therefore, launched his drive for nomination of Gov. Christian Herter of Massachusetts. In the present poll Mr. Stassen did not claim specifically that the Nixon name on the 1956 ticket would cause an 8 per cent drop from the Eisenhower total vote in 1952. He said the poll was merely on a 60 million-vote base. Of those polls 45.7 per cent said they would vote for Eisenhower and Nixon: 38.7 per cent said they would not; 15.6 per cent nomination for the vice presidency, even if it were done without any serious thought of winning. The Democrats did this for Senator Magnuson of Washington by nominating him for President. Senator Magnuson promptly withdrew after his banners were paraded about the hall in front of the television cameras. A similar demonstration could be given here for Gov. Langlie, who is running against Senator Magnuson. The same would apply to former Gov. Thornton, who will try to hold the Republican Senate seat being vacated by the retirement of Senator Mollikin. Civil Rights an Issue Next to the vice presidency, the only element of uncertainty here is how the Republicans will handle the civil rights issue, which was the storm center of the Democratic platform. The spirit of tranquility that pervades this Republican gathering was exemplified today by the announcement that two college football cheerleaders have been brought in to organize the demonstrations in the Cow Palace. They are Dan Angeloff of the University of Southern California and Jim Walters of Stanford. The announcement said their job is to use their experience at football games to bring order into the demonstrations on the floor of the convention. But, unless events take an unexpected turn, there will be few long forward passes, or goal line stands to test the gymnastics of a cheerleader. The announcement was based on an assumption that Adlai Stevenson and Senator Estes Kefauver would make up the Democratic ticket. In the poll, 49.6 percent, or 29,760,000 voters (on a 60 million vote base) said they would vote for President Eisenhower, and 35.5 percent, or 21,300,000 would support Mr. Stevenson. This was on a strictly presidential basis, disregarding the Vice Presidency. Spread Is 13.9 Percent. “The spread between Eisen hower and Stevenson when the vice presidency is disregarded, is 13.9 per cent.” Mr. Stassen noted. “The spread between Eisenhower and Stevenson, if Nixon is the vice presidential candidate, is 6.4 per cent or a drop of 7.5 per cent.” In addi tion, 15 per cent are in the class of “other candidates” or “don’t know” or “refused.” On questions dealing specific ally with Gov. Herter the poll found an Eisenhower-Herter ticket, opposing a Stevenson-Ke fauver ticket, had the support of 56.3 per cent of those answer ing. A total of 43.7 per cent fa vored the Democratic nominee. In reply to a general question as to whether some Republican other than Mr. Nixon becomes 1 the vice presidential nominee,! 48.3 percent, or 28.9 million, said they would vote for President Eisenhower, and 34.4 per cent or 20.6 million sided with Mr. Ste venson. The Stassen poll, covering' more than 200 areas of the! United States, was conducted August 10 through August 13 by! the Advertest Research Co. of New Brunswick, N. J.
