Truman Campaign Tactics For VP Focus And Delegates
President Truman faces new trouble from the South with threats of eight delegates walking out of the Democratic National Convention if he is nominated or if civil rights planks are adopted.

South Dakota leans toward an eight-vote gain as Mundt and Stassen maneuver in party contests. Republican contests in California favor Gov. Earl Warren with many House members securing new terms.
