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."

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.
