At the 22nd annual Southern Governors Conference in White Sulphur Springs West Virginia Democratic Gov Frank Clement faced no challenger for chair with McKeldin the sole Republican rival failing again to win the post McKeldin carried partisan flair and displayed a Ike tie. The group planned selecting next year’s meeting site Sea Island Georgia as the favorite with Hot Springs Arkansas a runner up for 1958. No resolution on school integration or other major policy emerged beyond routine agenda items.
