Dwight D.- Eisenhower. A campaign aide of Sen. Robert A. Taft conceded that thegp has been a "change” in the political climate since Taft’s defeat by Eis enhower in the New Hampshire Republican presidential primary. "But our basic strength hasn’t been disturbed," the Tuft spokesman said. Hie Eisenhower organization has shown growing confidence as a re sult of the NeW Hampshire pri mary. Eisenhower’s startling write in vote in the Minnesota primary and Taft’s withdrawal from the New Jersey primary. Elsenhower supporters were fur ther encouraged by two devektpr. ments today: ss* POST OCT FOR IKE , 1; The Washington Post, which has never endorsed a presidential candidate within the memory of Its present executives, came out for the nonttnatloa and election of Els enhower as the Republican candldat capable of riddipg the country of < ‘‘political blight and mediocre lead ership.” 2. Sources close to Eisenhower reported in Paris that the General will make a television report to the American people on April 2 on the progress of his European rearma ment mission, and that he probably will return to the United State* about May 15 to deliver a series of at least three i»*Jor speeches. But Taft supporters pooh-poohed the idea that aft Eisenhower band wagon is beginning to roll. - CLAIMS NEW STRENGTH ■ Iftgafta, Taft’* camMlgq iat-m* abuod Taft forces. Sen. Tafts position in the race for the Republican dom ination has actually been strength ened.” He noted that Taft still holds the lead in convention delegates actually chosen, "and his if!-at strongholds have not been beard fropi as yet."
