ster of Maine, recently named chair
man of the GOP senatorial cam

Clinton Anderson of New Mexico,
former secretary of agriculture. Also

Appartently there was something
of a paradox at the recent governor's
conference at Colorado Springs, for
according to observers here, those
states’-rights governors who yell
I loudest in national campaign years
about federal domination, yelled
loudesLa^Colorado Springs for more
federal /grand-in-aid funds. Accord
ing to newspaper reports of the con
ferences, Gov. J. Strom Thurmond
of South Carolina, the state’ right-
ers presidential candidate; Gov. Her
man Talmadge, of Georgia, and Gov-
Earl Long of Louisiana, led the de-j
mand for more federal grants to helo
states meet social security needs.

Special to The Chronicle.
Washington, July 2—This week in
both house and senate, political for
tunes are being maefb Especially are
lines being drawn for the 1950 elec
tions, for observers points out that
the senate debate on the Taft-Hartley
bill has marked certain men in that
body for Labor's enmity just as house
debate on the housing measure has
put its stamp on some members in
the lower body. 1
As a matter of.fact the 1950 cam
paign already is arlder way, with the.
Democrats recently holding a mid
west conference at Des Moines to
sell middle-west farmers on the
Brannan farm program and to forge
a link between the farmer and la
bor organizations. Republicans, too.
were getting ready to pitch in for]
the campaign. The house congres
sional committee has finally ob
tained a publicity man to handle its
program, in the person of Robert
Humphreys, former Newsweek editor
and International News Service staff
man in Washington
Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio, not
content to wait for action by (he sen-'
ate campaign committee, has become
a columnist in his own right and is
sending out weekly columns to some
140 newspapers in his native Ohio.
It already appears that on the
Taft-Hartley bill the administration
must necessarily be satisfied with
some poor makeshift amendments if
they get anything at all in the way
of a new labor bill. Observers here
point out that in the senate there
are probably eight doubtful Demo
cratic seats and four doubtful Re
publican seats up for election in the
coming campaign. There are 47
Democratic seats and 37 Republican
seats which possibly will not change.
Doubtful Democratic seats are
considered to be: Senator Sheridan
Downey of California; Senator Bnen
McMahon, of Connecticut; the suc
cessor of Republican Senator Ray
mond Baldwin, who will be a Dem
ocrat named by Governor Bowles to
serve from the end of 1949 to the
1950 elections; Senator Glen H. Tay
lor of Idaho, who became a vice-
presidential nominee on the Wallace
ticket; Sen. Scott W. Lucas of Illi
nois; Sen. Robert F. Wagner of New|
York, who will not run to succeed}
himself. (It is thought maybe that
his son, Robert Wagner, Jr., may get
the nod, but Former Gov. Herbert F.
Lehman, and the new congressman,
Franklin D. Roosevelt, Jr, have been
mentioned in connection with the
post); Sen. Francis Myers of Penn
sylvania, and Sen. Warren Magnu-
son of Washington.
On the Republican side of the four
doubtful seats, according to the po
litically wise here, include Senator
Eugene Millikan, of Colorado;
Homer E. Capehart, of Indiana; Sen.
Forrest C. Donnell, of Missouri, and
Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio.
According to the political dopes-
ters here, Taft may see action against
Gov. Frank Lausche, the winner in
the 1948 election. It also is rumored
that in Indiana. Gov. Henry F.
Schricker may decide to contest the
1950 election with Senator Capehart.
Capehart is seeking his second
term, and when he was elected in
1944 by 22,000 votes, Indiana went
for Dewey for president by 94,000
votes, then went on to elect Repub
lican Sen. William E. Jenner in 1946
by 155,000 votes. But in 1948 the state
went for Dewey by 14,000 votes but
elected seven out of 11 congressmen
and . also Democratic Gov. Henry F.
Schricker.
In the meantime, both parties are
planning regional meetings this
summer, and the Republicans al
ready have held party caucuses in
Los Angeles, OmahlT ’and Boston.
Also coming into the national picture
is a name well known to Republi
cans, one Philip Wilkie. He is the
29-year-old son of the late Wendell
