Stevenson Gains Steam As Delegates Hold Firm For Adlai
Long Beach delegate Adrienne Becker reports a telegram signed by Eleanor Roosevelt and others urging Stevenson supporters to hold firm through early ballots. It cites first and second ballot strength across multiple states and suggests a Stevenson Kennedy ticket could defeat Nixon. Also notes educators for Johnson organize and endorsements by Samuel Yorty. Knudson accuses Grant of using hysteria to push narcotics penalties while backing border control and rehabilitation.
