Political Situation Surveyed in Mountain States by Associated Press By JACK BELL DENVER (UP) — Taft regulars and Eisenhower volunteers are fighting the opening round of what promises to become a bitter battle for the Republican presidential nominating votes of the Rocky Mountain states. In what elsewhere has been regarded as an area likely to be favorable to Senator Robert A. Taft of Ohio, roofters are steaming up a vigorous bid for convention support for Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower in the mountain states. Six states, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming, will cast a total of 80 votes in the Chicago convention next July. While this is fewer than New York's 96, the strategic importance of having western backing has not been lost upon any candidate. In Colorado, typical of the mountain area, the Taft-Eisenhower battle is likely to find veteran Senator Eugene Millikin, chairman of the conference of all GOP senators, in the forefront for Taft and youthful Gov. Dan Thornton carrying the banner for Eisenhower. The Colorado situation is somewhat duplicated elsewhere in the area. Taft's supporters have a firm hand on the party machinery and the backing of most of the "professional" politicians. Eisenhower's backers claim to have overwhelming support within the bank and file of the party, but has "no doubt" that the president will be in the race. Neither do the Rocky Mountain Democratic leaders seem to share the hope Paul Fitzpatrick, New York state chairman, expressed after a White House visit yesterday, that Mr. Truman will run again. Although the Democrats admit Mr. Truman is at a low point—with the government corruption issue cutting deeply against the party—they apparently aren't much interested in Senator Kefauver (D-Tenn). Gov. Adlai Stevenson of Illinois, Chief Justice Vinson and others who have entered the race or been mentioned for it. In Colorado, Eisenhower Republicans will have until the May state convention to wage their campaign to overturn what looks like an almost solid lineup of GOP bigwigs for Taft. Although he has a legislature on his hands and isn't active yet in the political ring, Thornton told me: "It is my opinion that the Eisenhower forces in Colorado are going all out for the general." This could include, by inference, some campaigning by state employees. Matched against this would be Millikin's organization, reputed to reach down into the precincts. Strangely enough, many on both sides appear to believe that outward harmony might be reached by a first ballot "favorite son" endorsement of Millikin although CONGRATULATIONS—Cpl. st., Elkton, Md., honor graduate Leadership school on Oklahoma gratulations from the school menaces of Anaheim.

The Colorado situation is somewhat duplicated elsewhere in the area. Taft's supporters have a firm hand on the party machinery and the backing of most of the "professional" politicians. Eisenhower's backers claim to have overwhelming support within the rank and file of the party, but have to depend on relative "ama-ura" to whip this up into convention votes. With this battle among the Republicans well under way, Democrats in most of the area are sitting tight to see what President Truman plans to do. If Mr. Truman runs, they will fall in line. But it will take more than the mere word of some of his friends, such as John Mangle, Missouri national committeeman, to convince them. Mangle said after a White House visit yesterday that while Mr. Truman didn't say so, Mangle could include, by inference, some campaigning by state employees. Matched against this would be Millikin's organization, reputed to reach down into the precincts. Strangely enough, many on both sides appear to believe that outward harmony might be reached by a first ballot "favorite son" endorsement of Millikin, although delegates might split between Taft, Eisenhower and former Gov. Harold S. Stassen of Minnesota. Lieut. Gov. Gordon Allott, managing Stassen's campaign in the state, told me that if Stassen makes a creditable showing in primaries elsewhere, he will get part of the delegation. Stassen had a half dozen convention votes out of Colorado in 1948.

Gas Company Rate Increase Denial Hit by Official Recent denial by the California Public Utilities commission of a rate increase for the Southern Counties Gas Co. brought the following statement from Arthur F. Bridge, president of the company: "The denial by the California Public Utilities commission of our request for a general gas rate increase is very disappointing. The increase we proposed was considered necessary to meet rising cost and wage levels and to provide a reasonable return to investors in order to attract the large amounts of additional capital so necessary to maintain dependable service and provide for the current rapid growth of our system. "Our application was filed in March, 1950, and the final public hearing was held in March, 1951. Thus the figures on which the commission has based its decision are already nearly a year old. Since then many developments have occurred which adversely affect our earnings to an important degree. "Our rates for general service are practically the same today as in 1940. Nearly all the other major utilities in California have sought one or more increases since the end of the war, and all except our company have been granted rate relief. We are experiencing the same inflationary increases in cost which apply to other utilities, including increases in wages, cost of materials and supplies, cost of gas in the field." Anaheim Girl Gets Student Nurse Cap Norma Collyer of Anaheim was one of 17 student nurses who had completed their probationary period at Orange county hospital School of Nursing to receive nurses caps.
