G O P Policy For 1950 Drive Being Studied
Washington July 3 AP Senator Taft Ohio said the Republican platform for 1950 to win Congress will likely be delayed until January 1951 not before. He noted regional conferences this fall and winter to shape the platform after the 81st Congress meets for its second session. The party faces overturning Democratic majorities in both chambers and must settle labor housing and farming stances amid internal disagreements. Public unemployment trends and potential deficit financing loom as key campaign touchstones. Taft and others expect careful preparation before pledging concrete policy in the off year race.
