Only Clear No From Ike Can Stop Efforts Of Democrat Backers
Senator Sparkman of Alabama said only a clear no from Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower can stop efforts to land the wartime commander as the Democratic presidential nominee. He noted southern Democrats may press for Eisenhower’s name at the Philadelphia convention opening July 12 despite President Truman’s civil rights program, while Truman aides deny planned moves to draw Eisenhower into the race. The piece also mentions George Allen’s reported talks with Eisenhower and the White House’s cautious stance. The Trumpeter Swan, weighing about 36 pounds, is noted as the largest flying bird.
