Arthur 18 addresses the convention path as the party weighs MacArthur as the people's choice. Warren Wright of Chicago says no pledged delegates, relying on a nationwide poll three weeks before the GOP convention. Virginian Gov Willam M Tucker backs a substitute anti Truman measure to place his name on the ballot. Florida Democrats delay Jefferson Jackson day dinner amid convention focus.
