How much of a lift still depends on the reaction of Republican sen ators. The statements came from Sens. Frank Carlson (R-Kan.) and H.

Carlson said after the meeting: that Eisenhower would take no part in selection of a Sen ate leader, I assume he will be. and personally I would be for him.” In the light of other Carlson re marks/ his statement was inter preted here as something less than an endorsement of Taft for the floor leadership. NO FIGHT SEEN But it was also regarded as evi dence that the “Eisenhower sena tors would not fight to prevent the election of the Ohioan, who lost the GOP presidential nomina tion to Eisenhower after a bitter struggle last summer. Smith told newsmen that “Taft would be the logical majority lead er and personally I hope that can be brought about”’ While Taft has never called him self a candidate for the floor lead ership, he has said he was availa ble if Sen.
