Harmony plea aims to unite Texas Democrats under Jester
Governor Beauford H. Jester led a call for party harmony within the Texas Democratic ranks to unite factions over civil rights and tidelands. The effort scrapped a April 15 Port Worth banquet, and instead promoted a grassroots barbecue in Fort Worth on April 20 with $5 tickets to fund the state party treasury. The Truman faction planned a Dallas dinner on April 15 supporting national party unity, while five state Democrats met with Jester to pledge a united front at the state convention.
