Taft Optimistic on GOP Bid After Eisenhower Speech
Senator Robert A. Taft of Ohio on a radio program said Eisenhower's Abilene speech improved his chances for the Republican presidential nomination.

He defended the law as a tool to curb strikes and said he would pursue peace in Korea if possible. He also commented Europe’s fall would raise risk but not make the United States unsafe, and he dismissed delegate campaign bitterness as not affecting GOP prospects.
