In Fargo North Dakota the two incumbent congressmen at large Asher Burdick and Otto Krueger led a four man Republican primary, with Nordhaugen and Hetman trailing. Gov.

Robert Oppenheimer suggested on Wednesday he may appeal to President Eisenhower regarding the Atomic Energy Commission decision barring him from access to secret atomic data. He said he was surprised by the President’s openness to listening and that an appeal had never occurred to him.

The AEC states he is unfit to handle U.S. atomic secrets due to defects of character, though loyalty was not contested.
