second day, presidential hopefuls centred their attention on the uncommitted delegate votes of Michigan, Ohio, New Jersey and Texas which command nearly 200 | convention ballots between i them.This would be enough to put Adlai Stevenson, former governor of Illinois and the pace-setter in the race for the nomination, over the top Thursday when the 1,372 voting delegates select the man to lead them against the Republicans in the Nov.6 election.By the same token, they also could be enough to enhance sub.stantially the nomination prospects of Averell Harriman, governor of New York state who is Stevenson\u2019s closest opponent and who has the official blessing of former President Harry S.Truman.Tlie latest Associated Press tabulation of delegate support showed Stevenson and Harriman both increasing their strength but with Stevenson still holding his lead over the New Yorker.A pack of favorite sons \u2014 state leaders who get a formal nomination for the first ballot-trailed far in the rear.The AP tally gave Stevenson 554 votes to 229ti for Harriman.Favorite sons and others held 283 votes while the remaining 305Mi still were uncommitted.To win, a candidate needs 686% votes.The Stevenson-Harrimau tussle overshadowed the convention proper, which opened with traditional party fanfare Monday in Chicago's giant international Amphitheatre.Monday night more than 2,000 delegates heard Governor Frank G.Clements, a 36-year-old spellbinder from Tennessee, predict that, come November, the Republican administration, with \u201ca sordid record of broken promises and unredeemed pledges,\u201d will do the \u201cgreat fadeaway of the certtury.\u201d They heard, too, a plea from Mrs.Eleanor Roosevelt for a \u201cunited party with differences resolved.\u201d She is supporting Ste-, venson.The No.1 man of the convention in these early stages is Senator Lyndon B.Johnson, the I popular and powerful southern i leader who.as chairman of the Texas delegation, holds 58 votes.Both Stevenson and Harriman | have held meetings with Johnson j \u2014whose decision could sway the | voting sentiment of other south.J ern delegations\u2014but there has been no indication whether either side had been able to strike a deal for the big bloc of Johnson votes.Overtures also went out to the ' state delegations of Michigan, | whose Governor G.Menen Wil-! Hams controls 44 votes, Ohio with its 58 ballots and New Jersey with its 36.Monday night Walter Reuther, head of the Auto Workers union which is a powerful influence on ! the Michigan delegation, came out formally for Stevenson.But that was not regarded as a sur-I prise.ft\t2.^ v m Labor Wants Pledge; Egypt Would Explode Canal When Invaded LONDON \u2014 J-r \u2014 Manoeuvring lor a face wvin-g compromise on the 5uez.C anal coniroverey intensified today as apprehension over war mounted tn some quarter*.No compromise plan has vet come into the open \u2014 only two days before the scheduled opening of the London conference called to seek international control of tha canal.Rut Prime Minister Lden is under increasing-ly heavy pressure to ease the crisis h> invoking the help of the l nited Nations.The Daily Mirror, which oppose* Lden » government, says in an editorial that the prime minister will not hava the support of the British public if he resorts to military action.It calls on him to alter his course, even if a change ot heart might prove fatal to him a* a politician '' Grain Flows cent over last year equally brisk.Montreal harbor, heading for a record season of activity paced by passengers and grain, is the scene of this grain-unloading operation on a lake vessel.Grain shipments are up 30 per more than 81,500,000 bushels by water and rail \u2014 and outbound ocean shipments are (CP) Parliament To End Today OTTAWA '(P) \u2014 Parliament may be prorogued today, the 152nd sitting day since it met more than seven months ago.It has been a wordy and wearying session, one that has unleashed a wave of bitter feelings between government and opposition ranks that lapped at the Speaker's chair.It will be remembered for a long time for the unprecedented events that left a searing mark on some of the 7,500-odd pages of official debate reports.Perhaps the most critical was the unparalleled motion, of censure against Speaker Rene Beau- Toronto Hit By Storm TORONTO \to'\tA D UL\tp\te\t\tw\tg\t\tT\tEi\tR\tEL\tT E |R\te\tp\t\t#\t\tB\t5\t\tA\tT\tE N 1\t\t\t£.\tL'\tH\tL.\t\ta\u201c\tSS\t\t JL\tH\ta\té\tgn\t\t1\tV\tP\tA\ts\t5]k1 c\tjO\t\tvT\tm.\t\tC\tE :\té-\t\tT\tW| A\tL-\tË1\tr\tr\th\tl\tD\tFF\t\te\t'R JE ' \te\tNi'\t\t1\tI\tT\tE\te\t\tR\t 26 Standards of perfection 29 Oriental coin 31 Strong vegetable 33 Seventh Greek letter 36\tAscended 37\tNewest 39\tAnnouncement 40\tMistakes 1 Idolize 43\tRedacts 44\tCooking utensil 46 Doctrine 49 Log float 52\tSocialist Soviet Republic tab.53\tNarrow inlet 56 That is (ab ) 58 Morning c X*b.) i\t2\tr\tr-\tr\tb\t\t\u2022j\tà\tT\"\tir\til\t\"T ÏT\"\t\t\t\t\t\t\tw\t\t\t\t\t 15\t\t\t\t16\t\tr?\t\t\t\t18\t\t 19\t\t\t\t\tk>\t\t\t\t\tZI\t\t \t\t\tP\th\t\tS\t\t!b\t\tft\t\t \t&\t\t\t\t\t\t\t»\til\t\t\t \t\t\tü\t\t\t\t\"A\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t\t\tA\t\t\t\t\t \t36\t77\t\t\t\t\t&\t\t\t3T\t\t 41\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t'JS\t\t\t\t« 57\u201d\t\t\t\t\t\t\t$\t\t\t56\t\t §i\t\t\t8\til\t\t\t\ts)\t\t55\t\t mT\t\t\t&\t\t\t\tW\t\t58\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tM i'r.v-v - / Hi iHGccIO INFLATION (American Legion Magazine) A man had posted himself in front of an office building with a tray of shoelaces.One executive made it a daily habit to give the unfortunate a dime, but he never took the laces.One day the peddler, on receiving the dime tapped his departing benefactor on the back: \u201cI don\u2019t like to complain, sir, but the laces are now 15 cents.\u201d MOST POPULAR GAMBLE (Windsor Star) Ottawa may outlaw lotteries, prohibit jackpots and curb I bingoes, but it can\u2019t spoil the most popular game of chance \u2014crossing the street.\u201cNAW.NONE OF THEM FOREIGN DISHES !
