No Leadership Conference Likely Barry Goldwater Says
Barry Goldwater doubts a leadership conference will be held this year to restate party principles after last November's defeat. He questions who would select attendees and set agendas, while noting organizing difficulties. Governors pressed for a Denver meeting to sharpen principles and strengthen the party structure. Senator Dirksen opposes a new 1966 platform, while Bliss, Burch, Ford, and others look to expand a coordinating committee for governor involvement.
