DuoTHERM * pi ' Adlai Is Way Out Ahead Among Demos WASHINGTON (IP) Ad lai E. Stevenson apparently has a big bulge over all com ers in the Democratic Party whereas Republicans have not yet swung in large num bers to any 1956 presiden tial favorite. That statement is based upon an unusual sauiipling of political opin ion just completed by the United Press. Fif een United Press bureaus, each suitably located ceographical !y, participated in this sampling. Each asked a given number of representative individuals to state who they believe at this time the most like.y presidential candidates next year—assuming that Presi dent Eisenhower does not run. It was stipula.td that these individuals name not their own favorites but the persons they think mos* likely as of now to win the respective nomina ions. Par ticipants were promised their opin ions would not be attributed di rectly to them although their names would be listed. MORE REPUBLICANS The United Press polled 100 men in most fields of adult activity. There will be a later sampling of wwomen’s opinion. Refecting the likely scramble for position in the GOP if Presi dent Eisenhower steps aside, 13 Republicans received varying num bers of “first choice” votes. There were only six Democrats sharing "first choice votes; Here, at a glance, are the lead ers in the polling: DEMOCRATS: Adiai E. Steven son. 55, Averell Harriman, 31; Es tes Kefauver, 5. REPUBLICANS: Richard M. Nix on, 36; Earl Warren, 25; Thomas E. Dewey, 6: Milton S. Eisenhower, 6: William F. Knowland, 5. Those polled represent a cross section of Americans. Edward Budd. Jr., president of Budd Co., Philadelphia, is typical of the in dustrialists contacted. Paul Ami don., former superintendent of school, St. Pgui, Minn., was among the teachers, a group which included seven university presi dents. There was one opera tor, 17 labor leaders, a hotel chef, a dozen farmers, 15 company exe- LONG WAT TO GO Vice President Nixon is top man for the GOP in 1956 in the col lective judgment of those polled, but he is a long way from a ma jority choice. Nixon got 36 first places votes and one as a second choice alternate. Chief Justice Warren scored 25 and one. Then came Dewey and Milton Eisenhower, the President brother, with six choices each. It is apparent that they and the other Republicans have far to go. Other Republicans getting “first choice” voted were Knowland and Gov. Goodwin J. Knight, both of California; Secretary of Treasury George M. Humphrey; Secretary of State John Foster Dudes; spe cial presidential assistant Harold E. Stassen: FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover; Henry Cabot Lodge; Atty. Gen. Herbert Brownell Jr. and Gov. Christian A. Herter of Mas sachusetts. An important factor in Nixon’s political situation is suggested* by a study of the other Republican choices. Most of them are Eisen hower Republicans or liberal Re publicans as contrasted with the right wing of the party. It seems fair to assume that the right wing Republicans centered almost exclusively on Nixon while the other elements scattered their fire. The sampling indicated the Democrats already have narrowed their field to three likely contend ers. Stevenson and Harriman are well to the front. Tennessee’s Sen ator Kefauver is regarded as a contender. TYPICAL COMMENT Only five persons in this sam pling believed Kefauver to be the likely Democratic nominee, the five being scattered in the South, Midwest and Northwest. Both Stevenson and Harriman were picked in every geographical area. Only three other Democratic names were returned. Sen. Stuart Symington scores two first place votes; Sen. John J. Sparkman two and Ohio Gov. Frank S. Lausche one. The sampling obtained some salty comment: An Eastern Labor leader said “Eisenhower will not be re-elected. Labor will see to that.” A Midwest university president said Milton Eisenhower would be nominated and elected “If the people had any sense,” A Midwest labor leader said THE DAILY RECORD, DUNN. !f. O. THREE MORE GET THE AX Arthur Godfrey In New Firing Tirade NEW YORK (IP) Arthur Godfrey’s storm - tossed ship, suffering from three new losses in its crew, wobbles onto TV channels tonight in heave-ho’s may be on the wa Godfrey, the fiery-tempered em cee of the airwaves, applied the ax to three members of his “Tal ent Scouts” crew Tuesday— pro ducer Larry Puck, musical con ductor Jerry Bresley and announc er George Bryan. The dismissals followed the sur prise pattern of other Godfrey oustings of such performers as Julius La Rosa, Marion Marlowe. Archie Bleyer and the Mariners. The firings came without notice while Godfrey was preparing for tonight's TV program at the Penn sylvania National Horse Show is Harrisburg. Godfrey commented today in Harrisburg, “I’ve said before that I’m running this job and when I can t hire and fire I’ll quit.” Asked about his show’s slipping rating. Godfrey said “When you're in the top ten. there’s only one way to go-down.” SINGER MAT BE NEXT There were reporrs that singer one way or the other by next victim of Godfrey’s wrath. Miss Simms, who took six weeks leave from the Godfrey family after giv ing birth to a daughter, has not received definite word from God frey that she’ll be back on his show. Miss Simms' husband, Lorring Buzzeil said: "Her vacation is up on Nov. 1. but we haven't heard from Godfrey yet. We should know ose way or the other by next United Fund Helps Finance Scouting The $5,624 set up in the budget of Dunn United Fund for the Boy Scouts, and $1,600 for Girl Scouts are a vital part of the Fund, both for Dunn youth and for the Scout ing area of which Dunn is a part, was stated here today by Hal Jor dan, chairman of the United Fund campaign which starts next week. Scouting is one of the foremost builders of citizenship and it can be carried on only in those com munities which are anxious enough about the welfare of their boys and girls to contribute to the support of the several scout groups, that is: Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, "Ex plorer Scouts, for the boys, and similar groupings by age for the girls. Dunn and Harnect County are a part of Occoneechee Coun cil of the Boy Scouts of America, and recently Homer Eggers has moved to Dunn as district repre sentative of the Council to direct the work in this section. Few people who have had any connection with Scouting have to be told of the activities or the training programs which are con ducted within the Scout troop, Mr. Jordan stated, and there are hun dreds of adults in this area who . are actively participating in the movement as adult Scouters who give manv hours each month in assisting to carry out advisory and administrative activities of the or ganization as a part of their com munity service. ONLY SOLICITATION HERE In towns where the United Fund operates, there is a slogan which tells the Boy Scout participation story: “Support Your BOY SCOUTS Through The United Fund.” Here in Dunn the only funds solicited for this great work among the vouth of the communit.v are so licited through the United Fund. Mr. Jordan pointed out that this was true of all those ten commu nity and national organizations which come together for the one eommunitv-wide campaign, where by the citizens of Dunn can give to all ten at once. Giving once for all through the United Fund has meant greater nubile sunoort for the local Institutions and activi “they’re crazy if they nominate Nixon.” A Southern manufacturer said he ahvavs had been a Republican but that the .party hrs no one worth nominating, adding, “17,’ probably vote Republican again.” Despite the pledge of anonymity, perhaps Texas cotton fanner. V. Moss win forgive this direct at tribution to him of an opinion given as he vreoared to plow under his bug-infested crop: "Hell, it’s too early to ted. And besides, it doesn't make any dif ference who’s president. Well still have controls, quotas and alot menta” he face of reports that more r. week.” There were reports, too, that the McGuire Sisters, a singing rrio with the Godfrey mesage, might be endangering their position by their extensive entertaining activ ities outside the show. One source close to the Godfrey show said that Puck had set the pot to boiling last December when he became engaged to Miss Mar lowe. Puck, once the righ:-hand man of Godfrey, had his duties whittled away after that point. He and the titian-haired Miss Mar lowe were married on May 6. a few weeks after Godfrey fired the suLry singer. APPEARED WITH SINGER Tlie source s ated that Bresler was fired Tuesday because he had acted as piano accompanist and arranger for Miss Mariowe during night club engagements in New York and Boston early this year. "Bryan was the Innocent party in the firing,” the informant added, "He was kind of a smoke screen as the Mariners were in the Mar ion Marlowe firing.” Godfrey, who still suffers from an ailing hip, has seen his ratings slip this year. Ironically enough, one of the principal causes of his Wednesday night audience trou bles is that he has lost a major share of watchers to a friend of his.

Eden got to No. 59, toyed with it tantalizingly. laid aside his loose leaf binder, answered a few sup plementary questons on the scope )f the Defense Ministry, and then at down without going to 61. Something like a sigh went through the House of Commons. Questions time already had run past its allotted hour, so Eden war oerfectly within his rights in dodg ing an answer to Lipton’s query.
