Nebraska Nominates Ike in Nebraskas Tuesday Primary
Nebraska voters backed Dwight D. Eisenhower by about two to one on preferential ballots, yielding 17 pledged delegates and signaling strong support across rural and urban areas. Kefauver trailed with roughly one third of the popular vote, while unpledged Morans delegates remain uncommitted. The statewide turnout was light, with total votes near 160000 to 165000 and large cities yet to finalize absentee totals. Eisenhower’s delegate tally rose to 666 pledged and publicly committed. The Nebraska result boosted Eisenhower toward the 682-delegate goal for the renomination.

Kefauver faults arms shipment to Saudi Arabia
Senator Kefauver condemns a late 1950s arms shipment to Saudi Arabia as bankrupt foreign policy, calling on-implied leadership gaps and arguing it worsens Middle East arms balance. He notes the Sunny Point shipper Monterey carried ammunition and spare parts valued under a million dollars, with 18 M41 tanks previously ordered. Lehman and Celler reject the move as appeasement and encouragement to Arab nations.
