GOP Platform For 1950 To Be Formed
Two Republican senators said they will draft a 1950 congressional platform with a brief statement of principles. Sen. Brewster of Maine said leaders may adopt Guy Gabrielson’s plan while Sen. Taft of Ohio resists. Sen. Butler backed the policy plan. Brewster forecast GOP gains in several states but warned Democrats could still hold a majority with Vice President Barkley’s tie vote.
