C., TUESDAY AFTERNOON, AUGUST 4, 1953 First Exchange Os Prisoners Scheduled To Begin Tonight Knowland Seems Sure Bet To Succeed Taft BULLETIN WASHINGTON IIP) Sen, William F. Knowland of Calif ornia was elected Senate Repub lican floor leader todav to suc ceed the late Sen. Robert A. Taft. WASHINGTON (IP) Sup porters of Sen. William F. Knowland predicted he would ride out a last-minute flurry of opposition today and win overwhelming el ection as Senate Republi can floor leader. The 46 Republican were called to a pa: ty caucus at 2 p.m. e.d.t. to fill the. leadership vacan cy created by the death of Sen. Robert A. Taft. Knowland has held the post on an acting basis since Taft became ill nearly two months ago. Although there was some grumb. ling about the early date fixed for the election, the 45-year-old Cal ifornian was an odds-on favorite to win the job in his own right, probably without competition •pie election of Knowland would create another leadership vacancy ig the chairmanship of tha Sen- Policy jgprnmittee • Which Knowland has headed since last January. Sen. Homer, Fer guson (R-Mich.) was regarded as a probable choice for the policy chairmanship. PROTESTS HEARD Some protests erupted Monday ■to form what Knowland’s friends regarded as a backfire to block his election. These complaints came 'ty the form of letters and verbal omjec tioris to the Benate Republican Policy Committee, which decided last Saturday to hold the election today. The most significant came from Sen. Styles Bridges (R-NH.), Sen. ate President Pro Tempore and chairman of the appropriations committee. In a letter to Sen. Eugene D. Mlllikln (Colo.), chairman Os the Senate OOP caucus, Bridges said he had received several messages objecting to the early election He said he saw no immediate need to vote. Soviet Tanks / Battle Hungry BERLIN IW> Soviet tanks and Red police guns and bayonets today barred hungry and rioting East Germans from collecting "Ei senhower food parcels” in West Berlin, and Uffigh "goon squads” invaded free sectors of the city in an attempt to smash American food centers. Western officials said the flow of food-seeking East Germans had been almost dried up 1# the Red strong-arm methods. But the few who managed to get through -brought stories of fierce new riots in the Soviet zone.
