Govenor Arn Says Ike, Taft Good Candidates
By BOB NOLD
Gov. Edward F. Arn told 12 Daily Kansan reporters Tuesday that he thinks Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower and Sen. Robert Taft (R.-Ohio) are equally good Republican candidates for the presidency, but that Gen. Eisenhower stands a better chance of being elected.
He said, however, that he thinks Bob Taft is a good man and added, "I would be satisfied to appoint him president."
The governor spoke to the reporters, a Reporting II class, at a press conference in the capitol building.
The class went to Topeka to go through the statehouse and to talk with the governor.
He said he doesn't think Gen. Eisenhower and Sen. Taft are far apart except on foreign policy.
"If you could combine their qualities into one, you would really have something," he said.
He added, however, that Gen. Eisenhower has made the greatest contribution to the Republican party of any candidate in many years.
"If Gen. Eisenhower makes his position clear, certainly Kansas should support him in the national convention," Gov. Arn said.
Switching from the presidential race to the idea of a toll highway for Kansas, Gov. Arn said he has developed an attitude of watchful waiting and that he is going to let the Tulsa-Oklahoma City turnip now under construction serve as a "guinea pig."
If Oklahoma, Missouri, and Kansas can have a superhighway, it would be nice for the states to go together to finance it, he said. The cost of such a highway would be $400,000 a mile.
He said he would favor a turnpike in Kansas, probably from Kansas City to Topeka to Wichita, if enough demand was shown for it.
The three-state turnpike would run from Tulsa to Oklahoma City to

Joplin to St. Louis to Kansas City, Kan. to Topeka to Wichita and back to Oklahoma City.
Gov. Arn said, however, that he was opposed to state funds paying for a private highway but that he is not personally opposed to a private highway if it is financed by private enterprise.
Strike Possible In Steel Industry
Philadelphia-(U.P.)The steel industry faced today the prospect of a new nationwide strike by 650,000 CIO United Steelworkers-perhaps within two weeks.
Informed sources at the union's sixth biennial convention here believed that only an all-out demonstration of economic power in a walkout could win for the steelworkers the 26 cents an hour wage and fringe raise proposed by the Wage Stabilization board.
Angry spokesmen for the convention's 3,000 delegates warned bluntly that their men would quit the steel mills promptly if the Supreme Court rules President Truman's seizure of the steel industry unconstitutional.
The court may hand down its opinion May 26. Its last opinion day before summer recess is June 2. Observers thought there was little question that the court would rule before the recess.
Oil Workers May Return
Washington—(U.P.)—A high government official predicted today that most of the 90,000 striking oil workers will be back on the job "within the next 48 hours."
The official, who asked not to be named, said he expected agreements to be signed quickly at the 15-cent-an-hour ceiling imposed by the Wage Stabilization Board yesterday.
The coordinating committee of the 22 CIO, AFL and independent unions involved "reluctantly approved settlement" on the basis of the board's ceiling. The unions had demanded an 18-cent hourly boost.
