General Eisenhower has the sev- pardons and leaves of absence, both through front and back doors by several of his predecessors—he is to be commended and deserves the thanks and appreciation of all cit- izens who stand for upholding jur eral qualifications, as the American people well know, to fill the import ant position of supreme commander of the Atlantic defense program, and he holds the complete confidence and ies and court sentences. That record !* rus * P^P* 6 - ^ named he would fill the bill admirably. There is a general growing senti ment for General Eisenhower as a presidential candidate. He would be a colorful figure in that contest, re gardless of his opponent, and would draw millions of voters irespective of party lines. Many are saying that should the General be named to the commander post it would be a case of “pushing him upstairs” in order to eliminate him as a strong presi dential possibility should he yield to popular demand and announce his candidacy. There are millions who would like to see General Eisenhower offer for President in 1952 which is yet a good while off. We are included in that group. We hope that the General will be available when the stage is set. alone should have elected him to the United States senate in this sum- ■»er’s primary. The Governor has ■expected the sentences of the courts. That cannot be said of several who fcau-e held this high office in recent drears. Of National Import Congressman Bryson of this dis trict after returning from a recent trip to Ohio said that “if expensive advertising alone could swing votes Senator Robert Taft of Ohio should toe re-elected.” All over Ohio, the Congressman said, he saw Taft pos ters on bill boards, bams and other buildings, far outclassing the adver tising for his Democratic opponent. Taft is the issue there, the Congress- ■nan said, but that did not necessarily mean the people would vote Republi can.” iThe eyes of the nation are on Ohio, and properly so. The servator- jal race there is not only a “Battle of Ohio”, but also a “Battle of Am erica.'" Unlimited money is being poured into that state by labor organiza tions for the defeat of Taft, first- band report! say. He has had the courage to stand for the Taft-Hart- ley Act which is fair, both to labor and management.
