Gov. White Emissions
Democrats Repeal
OF Loyalty Pledge
BY the Associa,sd Press

JACKSON, Miss, Aug. eff
the Democratic Party does not
repeal the So-called loyalty
pledge. bitterly contested by
Southern delegates to the 1852
convention. you'll never have
another Democratic President, +"
Gov. Hugh White said today.
Gov. White, who plans to at
tend a party rally in Chicago
next month, told reporters at
q news conference he expects
to see the pledge scuttled there.
THE rules of the convention
can't be changed at the Chi
cago and required delegates. be-
fore they were recognized by
the Credentials Committee, to
sign a pledge to support the
nominees Of the party. whoever
they might be.
A furore resulted on the con-
vention floor, put did not result
in a mass Southern walkout,
like the one in 1948 over civil
rights, because it was decided
to make it apply to future con-
ventions.
Gov. White said the South
would not accept the pledge at
the 1856 convention. He pre-
dicted the conservative party
element would win the point at
the September 14-16 meeting.
Gov. White said the Demo-
cratic Party troubles of past
years stemmed from the conflict
of two elements, "the conServa-
tives and the radicals-and it
looks to me like Steve Mitchell
chairman of the National Exec
utive Committed is moving the
party back to conservative lines.
Gov. White forcefully sup
ported Adlai Stevenson, Demo-
cratic nominee, in the 1852
presidential campaign, and Mr..
Stevenson carried this State by
167. 900 to 10000.

Garfield Hospital
To Room In Babies

Garfield Hospital will provide
"rooming in" accommodations
for new mothers and their babies
in the maternity department be-
ginning September l.
The neW-type service will offer
mothers and fathers a chance to
get acquainted with the baby be-
fore going home.
Parents will be able to pick up
valuable tips on how to handle
baby from experienced doctors
and nurses.
All babies will remain in the
newborn nursery until they are
"a hours old. Then they'll be
moved in wit hmother and then
returned to the nursery at any
time she wishes.
A hospital official described the
"rooming-in" service as a period
of "orientation in the care of the
baby"
It will be all right for the
father to visit his wife and child
so long as he has washed his
hands and slipped on a gown and
mask. He can care for the baby
If he desires.
The "rooming-in" service is a
relatively new technique in ma
ternity wards. 1t was first devel-
oped here in Washington by Drs.
Preston A. MacLendon and John
L. Parks at George Washington

Today's developments appeared
to confirm this. Mr.. Mahoney is

Until today, there had been

''he could beat Gov. McKeldin

Both DR.. OtenaSek and DR.
Byrd agreed on another point:
That he should not give a for

Late last June, DR.. Byrd asked
the board to start looking for
his successor so he could retire
in January, 1855.
