Senator Barry Goldwater urged votes for strengthening social security and backing a five percent benefits increase, while opposing adding Medicare style health care for the aged.

Three busloads of Mississippi integrationists arrived in Atlantic City warning that seating them would draw thousands of Negro votes away in November.

The fight centers on credentials and the party platform civil rights as Democrats gather to nominate Johnson and pick a vice presidential running mate.
