Mr. Stassen's victory added to his triumph last week in Wisconsin enhanced his chances in his G.O.P. presidential sweepstakes. His total vote in yesterday's primary—on his 41st birthday—was almost as great as that for Governor Dewey and Sen. Robert A. Taft combined.
Stassen 50.013, Dewey 40.456
Mr. Stassen lost only seven of the state's 93 counties.
Mr. Stassen split the city vote with Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, of New York, who came in second. Governor Dewey came out ahead in Omaha, but Mr. Stassen won in Lincoln, the state's only other sizeable city.
"the prairies are on fire for Stassen," said State Sen. Fred A. Seaton, Nebraska's campaign manager for the Minnesota.

Communists Unpopular In Colombia Spanish Instructor Trujillo Declares
Humberto Trujillo, assistant Spanish instructor from Bogota, Colombia, where a Communist-inspired revolt flared recently, said today that the Communist party has little popularity or support at present in Colombia.
Mr. Trujillo said that the Communists have only two representatives in the Colombian government and that only a small labor faction actively supports the Communist cause.
"Many Colombians, formerly sympathetic with alleged Communistic ideals, no longer support the party because of the brutal methods employed to attain them," he said.
"When I was home in February of 1946, however, the Communists held seven or eight positions in the government, and the attitude of the people toward Russia was very friendly."
Mr. Trujillo said that the attitude of the Colombian people toward the United States has improved with the decline in popularity of the Communist party.
Mr. Trujillo said that he had received no word concerning the safety of his family, but added that he thought they had been unaffected by the uprising.
"A small fraction still resents the affair of the Panama canal, but as a whole, Colombians are friendly to the United States."
"It is also my opinion that the reports received by the United States newspapers were exaggerated," he said.
