Adlai Opens Way For Nomination Scramble
Adlai E Stevenson announced he will not seek a third presidential try in 1960. He will resume private law practice in Chicago in January and stay active in the party, joining an advisory group for a party legislative program. Kefauver said he is only aiming to be the best senator, with speculation he may run in 1960 despite Stevenson’s withdrawal. The move opens a scramble among Democratic governors and senators for the nomination.
