kefauver Shrugs Off
Signs Of Developing
Stevenson Boom
BY Crosby S. Noyes
Stor Stoff Correspondent

CHICAGO, July Ex-senator
Kefauver, who yields to no man
in his optimism about the out
come of the Democratic conven-
ton, is inclined to shrug off signs
of a developing Stevenson band
wagon.
The Senator played hockey
from his regular job of greeting
delegates yesterday to catch the
show-stopping appearance of
Gov. Stevenson before the con-
vention. He returned for his
regular afternoon press confer
ence bubbling over with indiffer-
ence.
The Governor, he said, had
made a good speech, and received
a mice tribute" in the five-minute
ovation which greeted his appear
ance. He appeared more eager,
however, to discuss the merits of
the following speaker, Senator
Douglas of Illinois, who is one of
his supporters.
Would Refuse Second Place.
The demonstration for Senator
Douglas, he said. was about the
same as that for the Governor. F."
To be sure, he added, he had been
standing in the back of the hall
for the beginning of the session
and had moved forward when Sen
ator Douglas started to speak.
Senator Kefauver was asked
about rumor which has gained
currency here-the suggestion of
a Stevenson-Kefauver ticket.
Would he accept the vice presi-
dental nomination if it were
offered him, he was asked.
II would not" replied the Sem
ator. Il have understood that
Gov. Stevenson is not a candidate.
I don't believe he is interested in
being a candidate or in running
for election. I don't think that
the Democratic Party will offer
the nomination to any one who
feels that way"
Cites Results of Polls.
Then he added: Cali the polls
show that I have the greatest
popular support of any candidate
for a campaign against Gen.
Eisenhower.
In his press conference, the
Senator read a prepared state
ment blasting the Republican
nominee as a "pseudocrat," ex-
planned as a person who speaks
liberal one day and reactionary
the next in an effort to impress
the electorate"
"As for our chances of victory
in November, I feel they have
been eased considerably by the
slate the Republican Party has
selected" he declared. II have
long been convinced that Senator
Taft would have been much
more difficult candidate to whip
than the party's new 'pseudocrat'
Mr.. Eisenhower"

He said the speech had drawn

Senator Dirksen said he had
Senator Taft's permission to "say

spoke. He said this was given 20
minutes before he made the
speech, in which he used neither
prepared text nor notes. Some
delegates had speculated whether
the thrust at Gov. Dewey was a
spur of the moment departure
from prepared text.
The Illinois Senator said his re-

seemed that only a last-minute
declaration by the Governor that
he would not accept nomination.
even a draft, would definitely take
him out of the picture.
| Gov. Stevenson's stock scared
after he had made his speech of
welcome to the delegates yester-
day. His address had a Roose-
tveltian flavor. 1t held the at
tention of the audience, set them
chuckling and brought LOUD cheers
and applause. Even his immedi-
Iate retreat from the speakers
platform when he had completed
his speech, indicating he had no
intention of using the occasion
to win big demonstration, struck
the delegates as entirely fitting.
StevensOn's Strength Cited.
Chief argument used in support
of a Stevenson nomination is that
the Illinois Governor can win.
This is the argument which went
far to give the Republican nomi-
nation of Gen. Eisenhower two
weeks ago in the. same convention
hall. Certainly many of the dele
gates look on Gov. Stevenson as a
far stronger candidate than SEN
ator Kefauver, Senator Russell,
Senator Kerr. Averell Hartman,
or any of the so-called favorite-
son candidates.
If Gov. Stevenson becomes the
party nominee, it will be the first
time in 20 years that a presiden-
tial nomination has literally been
forced on q reluctant presidential
potentiality-not q candidate, for
Gov. Stevenson has never been a
candidate. Gen. Garfield of Ohio
in 1880 was nominated for Presi-
dent by the Republican party, al
though he insisted he was not a
candidate; that the convention
had no right to vote for a man
who was not candidate, and that
he did not wish to be nominated.
Support for the Stevenson NOM
ination stretched from New Eng
land across the country and from
Michigan to the Mexican border.
Delegates pledged to Senator
Kefauver on the first ballot
through his entry into presidential
preferential primaries, were re-
ported ready to jump to the Illi-
noiS governor on the second or
third ballot. Former Senator Scott
Lucas of Illinois predicted Gov.
Stevenson could be nominated on
the first ballot. The most COM
mon prediction, however. was
that Gov. Stevenson would win on
the third or fourth ballot as more

Truman Keeps Silence
On Candidate Choice;
will Address Session
By Joseph A. Fox

While Democratic leaders today
wondered if President Truman
would give the Stevenson band
wagon a final push, the White
House maintained its customary
silence on the question Of the
Presidents choice of a successor
Beyond the announcement that
the President was going through
with his plan to address the wind
up session of the Chicago conven-
tion and the bare statement that
Mr.. Truman was watching the TV
presentation of the convention
proceedings, there was no White
House comment on Democratic
activities.
There was no confirmation of
the report that the President had
been given a preview of the key
note speech Of Massachusetts Gov
Paul Dever.
Won't Discuss RumOrs.
Press Secretary Joseph Short
said he would not discuss any OF
the rumors coming out Of the
convention area, and he would
not say If the President had been
in touch with any of the conven-
ton leaders by telephone.
If the reluctant Gov. Stevenson
finally gets the nod. the choice
no doubt would be highly accept
able to President Truman who on
two or three occasions has spoken
highly of the Illinoisan. The
President at one time called at
tention to Gov. Stevenson's service
as Governor, and stressed that
there was no better training fol

and more delegates shifted their
position.
The New York delegates will
swing to Gov. Stevenson on an
early ballot. a prominent member
OF that delegation said today.
1T probably will be Stevenson
on the second or third ballot" he
said.
He added that Of course the
New York delegation intended to
go down the line for Mr.. Harri-
man. but he made no effort to
hide his belief that Gov. Steven
son would be nominated and that
he would have the support of the
New York delegation eventually.
The New York delegate also pro-
posed that Senator Sparkman of
Alabama be nominated for Vice
President to run with Gov. Stew
enson. Senator Sparkman, he
said. had gone along with both
the Roosevelt and Truman admin
istrations and should be acceptable
to Northern voters. He added that
by placing Senator Sparkman on
the ballot it might help to heal
the wound in the Southern States
caused by the adoption of the
loyalty" rule.
He said he did not think Sen
ator Russell would do for a vice
presidential nominee, even if Sen
ator Russell would accept the NOM
ination. The Georgia Senator, he
said, epitomizes the Southern op-
position to the civil rights program.
having taken the lead in the SEN
ate against that program.
Hope to Wind Up This Week.
The prospect of nominating
Gov. Stevenson gives the dele
gates hope that they can con-
clude their work here and adjourn
before the end of the week. With
flve announced and active candi-
dates and six or seven favorite-
son candidates in the race, it looks
as if the balloting might go on a
long time, particularly as none of
these candidates is anywhere
within striking distance of the
GIG delegate votes necessary to
nominate.
Interest has turned to q prob
able running mate for the Illinois
Governor. For weeks a Stevenson
Russell ticket has been suggested,
on the. theory that the Georgia
Senator would insure victory for
the ticket in all the Southern
States. The Democrats have been
afraid that, with a Fair Deal presi-
dental candidate on the Demo-
cratic ticket, some of these States
would go to Gen. Eisenhower in
November.
Another ticket widely suggested
is Stevenson for President and
Kefauver for Vice President. Such
a ticket, it is claimed. would carry
with it the support of many voters
who have followed the Senate
crime investigator with enthu-
Siasm.
Both Senator Russell and Sena-
tor Kefauver have insisted they
are not candidates. and will not
become candidates, for vice pres
idential nomination. Both may
prefer to retain their seats in the
Senate.
Evening star., 1952-07-22


Another potential selection for
vice presidential nomination is
Secretary of the Interior Oscar
Chapman of Colorado. Mr.. Chap
man is widely known in the West.
He has been in the public service
for nearly 35 years. Further, he
is reported to have an OK. from
President Truman for the nomi-
nation.
However, should Gov. Stevenson
become the party standard bearer,
the Illinois Governor undoubtedly
would have much to say about the
choice of a running mate. He has
been so emphatic in his insistance
that he does not wish to become
presidential nominee it seems
doubtful he has given attention to
a vice presidential running mate.

delegates from the Southern
States could be required to pledge
their support to a drastic civil
rights platform plank.
"The Democrats of the South
are not going to bind themselves
to support a compulsory FEPC.'
Senator Holland said. 'Nor are
they going to pledge themselves
to support a change in the SEN
ate rules so as to have a majority
vote in debate in the Senate.

Threatens Serious Split.
The loyalty rule threatened a
seroius split in the ranks of the
Democratic Party.
The loyalty rule was backed by
the forces supporting Senator
Kefauver and Mr.. Hartman.
Their victory seemed to presage
the adoption later of a drastic
civil rights plank in the national
platform and the ousting of the
so-called regular" delegates from
Texas and Mississippi who are
anti-Truman Democrats.
! A caucus of Southern leaders,
to which Senator Russell has been
invited, will be held this morning
The course which the delegates
from the Southern States will
