shocks during this campaign when Senator Richard B.

shvers OF Texas in declaring he would support Eisen-
hover or, like Byrd of Virginia. who said he could not
support Stevenson, like Smathers and Holland of
Florida who remain silent about their support or opposi
lion.
Russell is regarded as among the greatest senator's
this country has had he the kngpn among South
ern politicians and got the almost solid support of the
South in his bid for the Democratic presidential nomi
nation.
Russell is also considered elsewhere in the country
as great statesman good idea of the esteem in which
he is held north of the Mason and Dixon Line may be OBJ
tanned from the editorial praise that given him by the
Republican Chicago Tribune when he arrived in Chicago
to attend the Democratic National convention
The Tribune had said of Eisenhower after his nomi
nation he cant win, he poor creature manipulated
by Wall Street., and noised around Chicago that
in the event of Russells nomination the Tribune would
support him. though had not supported Democrat in
the 104 years of its existence.
No wonder the Republican leaders were shocked
when Russell declared he is supporting Stevenson The
shock ntensfiedwhen Senator Russell this about

Governor Stevenson and Senator John
