Mr.. Birmingham. who was Mr.
Mahoney's campaign manager
against former Senator Millard
E. Tydings, told him that the
duty belonged to the chairman
of the delegation.
Then you're against me-" Mr..
Mahoney said.
A report circulated that Mr..
Mahoney was third on a list of
those scheduled to make a Sec
onding speech for Senator Ke-
Ifauver but that Speaker Ray
burn had ruled that only two
speeches would be allowed.
This made Mr.. Tawes and Mr..
Mahoney mad because they said
they had not been consulted
about the move.
"Kefauver people asked me
NEARLY week ago to make a
lseconding Speech" Mr.. Mahoney
said. II said no; didn't know
how my delegation would CO."
Mr.. Mahoney thought the re-
port that he sought to make a
speech from the platform may
have originated from the earlier
request. He added that he also
had been approached for q Sec

with mere ratification by the
convention.
Leaders got their heads to-
gether in a recess before the
second ballot and the word
went around convention hall
that it would be Kennedy on
the second ballot. 1t looked
as If this nomination were to
be managed as usual, after
all.
That appeared more certain
when. on the second ballot.
Kefauver began to lose drib-
let's of delegates here and
there to Kennedy-and finally
New York and New Jersey,
which had been supporting
Mayor Robert F. Wagner Of
New York, switched to Ken
nedy amid cheers.
That seemed to be the band
wagon. But, no, the miracle
happened and Kefauver's own
State of Tennessee, which
had been voting for Senator
Gore, was switched to Ke-
fauver by Gore himself. Then
the pendulum began to swing
back a bit. A nip-and-tuck
race started which ended with
Kefauver's victory.
Kefauver's nomination is a
triumph for the whole Demo-
cratic Party. and for the demo-
cratic process symbolized in
the primary system, imperfect
as 1t is.

throughout the week centered
about the absence of one of the

Mr.. D'Alesandro is an arch

and was pitted against him in

THOMAS l. STOKES

CHICAGO.-The presiden-
tial primary system. hodge,
podge as it is and limited to
only about a third of our
States, got an Endorsement IN
the Stevenson-Kefauve ticket
that came from the 1856 DEM
ocratic convention.
Both Adlai Stevenson and
Senator Kefa uver toile d
through the primaries this
year. They were the only
candidates who subjecte d
themselves to the ordeal.
They were pitted against each
other in six of the contests,
though entering others sepa-
rately. When 1t was all over
in California on June l. Ste
venson was first and the Ten
nessee Senator second.
When the convention ended
here, that was the order of
their finishes.
This convention result turned
out to be another repudiation
of former President Harry S.
Truman. He once called the
primary system "eyewash." Yet
his choice. Gov. Averell Harri-
man of New York, who avoided
the primaries. was defeated
here.
Furthermore, the nomina-
tion of Kefauver was a per-
Sonal blow for the ex-Presi-
dent, who long has had a
distaste for the Tennessean,
which he expressed publicly
again a few days before the
convention opened.

ton strained toward their stand
ards like the Marines at I've
Jima. 1t was a thrill a minute
for a half an hour.
Things Can Be Patched
But if the delegates were feel
ing a little bruised, they had only
to look up at their betters on the
platform to see that these things
and worse-can be patched up
A week ago, no right thinking
man thought there was a room
in Chicago big enough to hold
Harry Truman. Adlai Stevenson
and Estes Kefauver; not even
the giant amphitheater. They
were wrong as Republicans. But
if you speak of Hatfields and
McCoys and Montagues and
Capulets in spades. you have the
picture.
Like all family quarrels this
one is complicated. Harry Tru-
man came here four years ago
to trip up Estes Kefauver, and
did. Harry Truman came here
10 days ago to trip up Adlai
Stevenson and didn't. When
Adlai and Estes were having il
out in the primaries, Estes kept
inviting Adlai to step outside.
Adlai. who as everyone know:

his head out Of his foxhole from
time to time to call out. please

method of selecting a vice
presidential candidate.
Kefauver clearly was the
strongest contender in the
convention. chiefly because Of
the public and delegate sup
port he had built up during
his primary campaigns. De-
spite this, however, he had a
narrow escape, just nosing out
young Senator John Kennedy
of Massachusetts, in a contest
that had convention managers,
the presidential nominee, and
the public television audience
on edge.
The Stevenson "open con-
vention" idea was regarded
generally as a brilliant stroke.
Rooseveltian in concept, to
focus attention on the contro-
versy within the Republican
Party over denomination of
Vice President Nixon. Harold
E. Stassen is demanding an
"open convention" by Repub-
licans at San Francisco next
week for election of a vice
presidential candidate.
But it would serve that pur-
pose, as well as the immediate
purpose of nominating an eff
fective vice presidential candi-
date for the Democrats, only
if it worked.
House Speaker Rayburn,
who had responsibility as pre-
siding officer of the conven-
ton. feared it might get out
of hand. He vigorously urged
Stevenson not to recommend
it. as did Senator Lyndon B.
johnson of Texas, the party's
Senate leader.

sons toWn-meeting concept of
democracy has given him as
his running mate the man who
opposed him in the principal
presidential primaries. Senator
Estes Kefauver.
It is a throwback to the
early days Of the Republic, be-
fore the present party and
convention system developed.
when the man receiving the
second largest number of bali
lots for President automati-
cally became Vice President.
1t did not happen without
q struggle. An extraordinary
alliance Of the South and the
big cities united behind a long
shot-the attractive, young
Senator from Massachusetts,,
Jack Kennedy-and he all but
won it.
The momentum behind that
alliance came from the South
ern leadership Of the House
and Senate. It's tactics and
strategy were put together by
the Senate majority leader,
Lyndon B. johnson Of Texas.
johnson started with the
promise that Kefauver, the
lone wolf. was totally unac-
ceptable to the congressional
leadership. In conversations
with Stevenson, johnson bore
down heavily on the role the
Vice President played as pre-
siding officer Of the Senate and
legislative liaison with the
White House. Speaker Sam
Rayburn backed him UP.
Late Thursday, Wilson wy
att, a Stevenson adviser and
his 1852 campaign manager,
broke the news to Kefauver
that Stevenson was about to

hanging on to minor support:

Suddenly, as Kennedy surged
over 900. close to triumph, the
standards Of Tennessee, Of

going for Humphrey-and Of
Missouri were wildly waved
toward Chairman Rayburn.
Senator Gore withdrew: Ten

The vote Kennedy had cast
against the Democratic farm

Also, these young liberal
Senators were. in effect. tell
ing their majority leader to
stop trying to control the
party in the interest Of the
conservative South.
More will be heard Of the
johnson effort to seize the
party at this convention. The
Texan missed every boat, but
not for the want Of trying.
The result is an unbossed

his chance to prove his grass
roots strength, as opposed to
the adamant congressional
leaders.
The Kefauver people went
into action. His primary cam

given him strength across the

saying he would help the tick

Pose for Portraits
They spent last night, as a
matter of fact, mostly posing
for family portraits. 1t took a
lot of time because we wanted
to get everyone in-the poor re-
lations. the distant cousins, the
people we haven't been speaking
to lately.
The delegates came to the hall,
not knowing quite what to ex-
pect. The first open floor con-
test to pick q Vice President had
proved to be a battering expert
ence.
All afternoon the floor looked
like a series Of prints of the
storming Of the Bastille, as war
ring factions surged up on their
chairs, struggling toward their
chairmen. Lapels were gripped,
exhortations were shouted, souls
searched, caucuses were explod-
