Local Issues Feature 5 Primaries Tomorrow
Washington — (L.R.) - Primary elections tomorrow in five states deal mostly with peculiarly local issues to the exclusion of the headlined news of the day such as Indochina, McCarthy-versus-Army and the Geneva conference.
Elections will take place in Ohio, Indiana, Florida, Alabama and New Mexico. Primaries already have been held in New Jersey and Illinois.
Ohio Republicans are in a factional fight over nomination of a candidate for the Senate seat held by the late Robert A. Taft. The state organization endorsed Rep. George H. Bender. Thirty-seven-year-old William Saxbe, a small town lawyer who is speaker of the Ohio legislature, challenged organization designation of party candidates as "bossism" and announced for the late Sen. Taft's seat. He is supported by Robert A Taft Jr. The contest has not aroused great public interest.
Indiana's primary is overshadowed by a battle for control of the Republican state organization. The contending leaders are Sens. Homer E. Capehart and William E. Jenner who oppose Gov. George N. Craig.
Sen. Thomas A. Burke, a Democrat named to succeed the late Sen. Taft, has no primary opposition. For the first time in 40 years, both major parties have named candidates for governor without primary contests. They are James A. Rhodes, former Republican mayor of Columbus, and Gov. Frank J. Lausche, Democrat, now serving an unprecedented fourth term.
Florida, where Democratic nomination usually means election, a three-way contest for Democratic designation for governor is expected to lead to a May 25 runoff. The aspirants are Brailey Odham, Leroy Collins and acting Gov. Charley E. Johns, Gov. Johns last year succeeded the late Dan McCarty.
In Alabama, Sen. John J. Sparkman, who campaigned in 1952 as Adlai E. Stevenson's vice presidential running mate, has the fight of
his life for renomination against Rep. Laurie C. Battle. Sen. Sparkman supported a civil rights program in 1952 which was sufficiently unpopular in the South to divert several states to the Republican Eisenhower-Nixon ticket.
But former Gov. James E. (Kissing Jim) Folsom's effort to return to the governor's chair is attracting most attention in Alabama. Mr. Folsom's appeal is identical with that which won for him in 1946.

British Claim Better H-Bomb
London — (U.F.) — The newspaper Daily Express claimed today that Britain has developed and is preparing to test a new-type H-bomb simpler and cheaper to make than anything possessed by either the United States or Russia
British Atomic officials declined to comment.
The newspaper said the British thero-nuclear weapon would be tested next year. It added that "the revolutionary idea in nuclear physics" involved in the British bomb was successfully tested last Oct. 26 in Australia.
After those tests, the newspaper said, Britain dropped a scheme for development of expensive heavy hydrogen, used in most H-bombs.
The Express said the new British discovery was the main factor which prompted President Eisenhower to press for a fuller exchange of atomic secrets between the United States and Britain. Mr. Eisenhower was said to have been advised, without details, that "an exceptional advance" had been made by Britain.

South Carolina was the first state to plant rice and indigo for sale. Rice was planted before 1871.
In Kansas City, a fall of 2.65 inches in a 60-hour period beginning Thursday night was the heaviest rain in nearly two years. Southeast Kansas had rain that measured 5.52 inches at Chanute, and meteorologists said rains of an inch or more were "general in both Kansas and Missouri."
Olathe where drought has forced the hauling of water by railroad tank car from Kansas City, got 3.22 inches of rain and the water level of the lake which normally supplies the city rose five feet.
E. C. Corkill, government hydrographer at Kansas City, said several rivers were at or slightly above technical flood stage, but that no damage from flooding was anticipated.
Kansas streams which for months have been only trickles ran bankfull today as government observers tabulated statistics on the "best rain in months."
Best Rain in Months Fills Kansas Streams
Even Southwest Kansas got rain, although amounts in that section were lighter than those recorded farther east. Totals generally ran about half an inch in that section.
By UNITED PRESS
The Marais des Cygne-Osage was among these, but Mr. Corkhill said all it amounted to was "a good flushing out, the first in a long, long while." He said the flow should improve conditions in the lake of the Ozarks, into which the river empties.
In the Kansas reaches of the stream, the Marais des Cygnes, the river was expected to overflow slightly below Osawatomie.
The Neosho and Verdigris rivers already had crested in Southeast Kansas, where the Neosho reached a level about three feet above technical flood at Chanute.
In Northwest Kansas, snow made highways hazardous in the Colby and Atwood areas. Two inches of snow was on the ground at Goodland last night.
Several highways in Kansas were closed for a period yesterday by high water. They included U.S. 60 and K-31 north of Fort Scott, K-31 west of Fulton and west of Mapleton; 160 north of Elk City, and 166 west of Caney.

Recall Asked For McCarthy
He said the televised hearings of the McCarthy-Army dispute had helped his recall campaign, and that he now had over 200,000 signatures.
Mr. Gore, editor of the Sauk-Prairie Star and founder of the "Joe Must Go" club, said if the sound trucks were successful he would move trucks into other Wisconsin industrial areas.
Sauk City, Wis.-(U.P.)-Editor Le Roy Gore said he would send sound trucks to Milwaukee factory areas today urging workers to sign petitions demanding the recall of Sen. Joseph McCarthy.
Under the recall rules, Mr. Gore must get over 400,000 signatures within 60 days. He said he might drop some of the first petitions and continue the campaign if he thinks it advisable.
He said he will begin a "recall week" campaign May 10.
