Draft Eisenhower movement planned in New York
In New York a draft Eisenhower movement forms with businessman organizers and a pledge to back General Dwight D. Eisenhower's candidacy, though he has not authorized a formal club. Officials say the effort spans 16 states and aims to build support while avoiding definitive nomination statements. Maine is noted for its size compared to nearby New England states.
