GOP chief weapons to be war in campaign shuffle
The Republican national committee leaders at a Midwest conference outlined the Korea war issue as the party's main campaign weapon while shifting communism and farm policy attacks to secondary status. Chairman Guy Gabrielson voiced optimism about GOP congressional chances but warned against predicting control. He projected a net gain of five Senate seats and 25 to 30 House seats, short of the 47 needed to outvote Democrats, and said victory could come even if the war ends before election day. He also forecast reelection of Ohio Senator Taft and the defeat of Illinois Senator Gillette Lucas if GOP efforts remain strong.
