The resolution urged unity and strength, aiming to avoid turning the party into a mere propaganda outlet. Reports noted limited access for reporters and uncertain delegate numbers, with estimates placing attendees around 300 to 350, many from New York.

Jury Awards 325000 To Boy Injured In High School Scrimmage
A 9 2 verdict in Dunsmuir California awarded Anthony L Welch and his mother Gladys Welch 325000 from the Dunsmuir Joint Union High School District. The injury occurred during a pre season scrimmage against Enterprise High School, leaving the boy paralyzed from the hips. The suit claimed the Dunmuir coach was negligent moving him to the sidelines too soon. Welch was treated in Vallejo, and the trial lasted from Saturday evening until early Sunday. The district faces questions about athletic program funding following the award. The district’s tax rate was raised recently to finance expanded activities and an enhanced athletic program.

Postal Warning Five Cent Letter Rate Proposed
Washington seeks a five cent first class letter rate to avert a potential annual postal deficit of up to one billion dollars. Deputy Postmaster Maurice H. Stans argued before a House appropriations subcommittee that absent the rate hike the 1958 deficit could reach about 651 million dollars, with five year improvements raising costs to around 762 million. He warned deficits could climb to 750 million to one billion annually when considering pay raises and railroad rate increases. Subcommittee chair J Vaughan Gary indicated support for the five cent rate to stabilize finances.
