Phone Call From Truman
Mr.. Mccormack said he re-
ceived a telephone call early in
the evening from Mr.. Truman
who told him Mrs. Roosevelt was
in the hotel. and suggested she
be invited to appear.
Mrs. Roosevelt was in the
committee room for 30 minutes
and twice during that time re-
porters in the hallway outside
heard applause.
Meanwhile. Gov. Williams of
Michigan. who has taken an ac-
tive part in behalf of civil rights,
was cautious in discussing the
subject on his arrival here yes
terday. He said he wanted to
see the plank the committee has
in mind before commenting on
what he thinks the convention
should do.
At her press conference yes

that she would be content with a
plank that did not specifically
mention Endorsement of the SUI
