hover has a good chance of
getting Virginia's IL electoral
votes again this year.
The only pessimistic note Of
the day was a warning that votes
for T. Coleman Andrews on the
States Rights ticket might hurt
President Eisenhower in the Old
Dominion.
Secretary Humphreys praise
for Virginia's Senators came as
he was discussing the Eisen-
hover administrators efforts to
cut Government spending and
maintain balanced budget.
Supported Fiscal Policies
"In keeping Government
spending down so as to make
lit possible to balance the budget
and reduce the debt, we have
had the StauncheSt support from
IVirginia's two outstanding Sem
ators. Harry F. Byrd and A. Will
Ills Robertson" he declared. I'VE
are everlastingly grateful to
them for their unfailing support
of our fiscal policies. They are
great citizens Of this State and
our country"
Neither of Virginia's two Sen
IatorS was present, nor did any,
one notice other luminarieS in
Virginia Democratic Party. Most
of Virginia'S top Democrats have
Endorsed Adlai Stevenson this
year. The latest was Representa-
tive Tuck, generally regarded as
a close ally of Senator Byrd.
What Senator Byrd is going
to do has been the subject of
much speculation. Some remarks
he made at his picnic earlier
this year sounded like he wasn't
too fond of the Eisenhower ad-
Iministration, but so far he has
made no public announcement
about where he stands.
Stresses Prosperity
Secretary Humphrey said Pres
ident Eisenhower during the
past Tour years had fulfilled his
three big campaign promises
to achieve peace, balance the
budget, and promote the health
and welfare of all the people.
THAT President Eisenhower
has fulfilled his third promise
to promote a more abundant
Ilife-is apparent for everyone to
;ee," Secretary Humphrey told
the audience, which looked like
it knew the meaning of prosper
Iity, without any further defini-
ton.
The only group not sharing
fully in this great prosperity" is
the farm group, said Mr.. Hum
iphrey. and he blamed that on
conditions that developed during
the previous Democratic admin
istrations.
Marvin McLain, Assistant Sec
rotary of Agriculture, declared
that the country was not suffer-
ing a real agricultural recession
except in some isolated spots. :"
The isolated agriculture recess
sion that does exist started under
the Truman administration, he
declared.

The resolution charged the new

The adoption of the resolution
