Lt Gov Preston Smith reports success after returning from the National Conference of Lieutenant Governors in New York City. He introduced a resolution urging Congress to enact amendments removing Supreme Court jurisdiction over reapportionment. The measure targets state petitions and would involve the Supreme Court, pending broader support from other governors. Smith, a delegate at large to the Democratic National Convention in Atlantic City, discussed the matter with Gov Connally who supported the idea of one of them speaking for Texas. Connally is expected to place President Johnson's name in nomination.
