V Oregon Delegation Beating Drums For Estes Kefauver As Adlai's Running Mate CHICAGO Wl Oregon's Demo cratic Convention delegation Mon day jumped enthusiastically to the task of transforming a Stevenson Kefauver ticket into a winning convention combination. As the convention opened form ally, Sen. Richard L. Neuberger was prepared to second the nomination of Sen. Estes Kefau ver as Adlai Stevenson's running mate. Neuberger, delegation chairman, told the delegates at their initial caucus Sunday night that he felt a fellow-Tennessean should place Kefauver's name before the con vention. His statement was in answer to talk that he might fill the nominating role. "I told Senator Kefauver," Neu berger said, "that I felt his chances would be enhanced if some one from his home state E laced his name in nomination, ut that I would be pleased to make a seconding speech as chair man of the Oregon delegation if that should be his wish." Neuberger praised Stevenson and Kefauver as "a strong ticket characterized by Integrity, states manship and liberalism." He said he so pledged Oregon's support to both candidates "until death do us part."

Sell 111" Room 223 Pacific Bldg, OR 2-3621 president and Kefauver for vice president the only state commit ted to a complete ticket. The delegates were told of a "growing ground swell" for Ke fauver as second place nominee by J. Howard McGrath, a Kefau ver manager and former attorney general in the Truman adminis tration. McGrath assured the Oregon group that if it is Stevenson's wish, in the event he wins the presidential nomination, Kefauver is 'available' to "serve the ticket in any way." Meanwhile. Neuberger has an nounced his belief that the Demo cratic platform should endorse the Supreme Court's school desegre gation order. To write a civil rights plank without mentioning the Supreme Court would be like "writing about baseball, and not mentioning Babe Ruth," he said in a filmed tele vision interview, Reporters Roundup.
