Pennsylvania Neutral
The coolest reaction to the
Kennedy triumph came from
Pennsylvania, which has 81
convention votes.
Gov. David L. Lawrence. in
Rome, was quoted by the Asso-
ciated Press as saying the West
Virginia results would not
change the neutrality of the
Pennsylvania delegation.
In a telephone interview.
Pennsylvania Demo ocratic
Chairman John S. Rice said:
Il still don't know whether
Senator Kennedy would gain
or lose more ovteS in the gen.
eral election because of his re-
ligion."
Mr.. Rice also said he saw mo
stampede" to any candidate re-
sulting from the West Virginia
results.
That view was taken, too, by
J. E. ED Connally, co-chair-
man of the campaign to nomi-
nate Senator johnson of Texas.
Mr.. Connally said the West
Virginia primary was very en-
couraging" to Senator Ken
nedy, but added, Il don't think
it had any effect on Senator
Johnhon's chances.
Mr.. Connally said he hoped
the outcome might influence
Senator johnson to declare
himself a candidate for the
nomination or, at least, to take
more time from his Senate du-
ties for campaigning.
Humphrey Farley Set
1t was not clear whether
Senator Humphreys hackers
would now swing behind Sem
ator Kennedy or go to another
candidate.
Senator Humphrey himself
gave no indication of his wish

Herbert F. Waters, said
Humphrey hackers from vari-
GUS States would meet with
the Senator in Minnesota Sum-
day to canvass the situation.
1t. Gov. Phileo Nash of Wis
consin, a leading Humphrey
hacker in that State, said in
a telephone interview he ex-
pected the 1912 votes Senator
Humphrey captured in the

this year, said: Senator K an-

only a reflection of his broad
appeal, but a strong indorse-

In a Joint statement, New

and national committeeman.
Michael H. Prendergast and
Carmine G. DeSspio, said Sem
ator Kennedy "in an uphill
fight, has proved himself to be
a very strong and very able
contender for the Democratic

The results in West Virginia,
they added, "are meaningful in
our own State of New York"
and will be a highly significant
and serious factor in the de-

said.
Camp followers for both can
didates had made detailed
charts of West Virginia. show
ing were Catholics are most
numerous, where anti-Catholic
sentiment possibly could be ex-
pected, where labor union
voting is strong.
In the end. the charts proved
largely meaningless.
From the coal mining areas,
where economic distress is wide
spread; from Ohio County
wheeling, where Catholics
are strong; from Kanawha
County (Charleston), which is
bustling and prosperous; from
the plush resort area in the
southeast; from the beautiful
and impressive hill country
everywhere the answer was the
same.
And the answer was Senator
Kennedy.
Leads in As Counties
At 2::30 am, for example,
with 54 of West Virginia's SIS
counties showing partial re-
ports, Senator Kennedy was
ahead in 45, Senator Humphrey
in only nine.
In Mcdowell, the leading coal
producing county in the Nation,
Senator Kennedy held a lead
of better than 5 to /.
Although the victory meant
a lot to Senator Kennedy-it
should be a powerful argument
to- advance against the theory
that no Catholic can be elected
President-it didn't guarantee
him a single extra delegate
to the convention.
This was strictly a popu-
larity, contest. The delegates
who will cast 25 votes at the
Democratic convention in July
are free to do as they please.
| With 108 candidates hoping
to be delegates, it will be some
time before the results can be
tabulated. But they're expected
to scatter their votes among
Senator Kennedy, Senator
Johnson of Texas, Senator
