Their reasoning was this:
The one thing Mr.. Stevenson
cannot do at this time without
offending the active candidates
and scuttling his own chances
for ultimate victory, is to make
a direct move for the nomina-
ton" Why, then, would Sena-
tor Humphrey ask him to do

to clear the way for his State

The question went unan-

tion to the Senate, was un-
available for comment.

Gov. Freeman said he re-
garded the telegram as "a

men. He said Senator Hum
phrey has been "joshing Steve

He also pronounced himself
undecided on the proposition
advanced by opponents of Sen

bad for the Democratic Party
if any candidate cinched the
nomination before convention

feeling, one way or the other,

NEWARK. N. j., June 4
(AP). - Senator johnson of
Texas, says Americans should
unite behind President Eisen-
hover until January-and then
unite behind a Democratic
Party President.
The Senate Majority Leader
added that Soviet Premier
Khrushchev's aim "is to divide
America and to scare America
and to divide America from
her allies"
Senator johnson gave his
views yesterday at news con-
ference and reception at which
he met New Jerseys delegates
to the Democratic National
Convention.
He said the actions Of a
President should be subject to
study but felt that an attack
on the President by any Ameri-
can is doing Khrushchev's
| job"
II will not do Khrushchev's
| Job for him." the Senator said,
Not a Summit Man
Senator johnson also said the
Russian Premier is greatly mis-
taken if he feels a new Presi-
dent would accept his ideas at
a summit conference.
The Senator said he himself
is not a summit man." and be-
lieves a summit conference
should be attended by the
United States only under very
unusual circumstances.

bert Lea tomorrow.
Washington was filled with
rumors today that Minnesota
may be the next State to join
the Kennedy movement. The
Massachusetts Senator's back
ers were making no such claim,
and the prospect seemed al
most fantastic in view of the
personal bitterness that de-
veloped between Senators Ken
nedy and Humphrey during the
Wisconsin and West Virginia
primary campaigns. But the
speculation flourished.
Speculate on Governor
1t appeared to rest, in part,
on the belief that Minnesota
Democrats would follow the
lead of another liberal Mid
west party, the Michigan
Democrats, whose head, Gov
G. Mennen Williams, Endorsed
Senator Kennedy Thursday.
The two States often have
worked as a team in Democra-
tic politics.
The speculation also was
based on reports that Senator
Kennedy was seeking a Midwest
governor with strong appeal
to farmers and minority groups
as his running mate. Mime
sofas Gov. Orville Freeman
obviously would fill that bill.
