Warren Campaign Tour Through Wisconsin Crossroads
Gov. Warren of California campaigned in northwestern Wisconsin for 30 GOP delegates on April 1. He toured 350 miles in an automobile caravan, delivering 15 speeches to about 6 000 people, stressing party unity and Democratic critique while avoiding anger toward rivals Taft and Stassen. He spoke from Superior to Eau Claire, meeting farmers, railroad workers, and small-town residents, including Scandinavian communities, with a mild, neighborly approach.
