Then he launched into accounts of his own upbringing and that of his wife Pat. with broad implications of a contrast with the upper crust wealthy background of his Demo cratic opponent.

The candidate said oil was found on the land after it had passed out of the family's hands, and "that's Ihe only reason 1 didn't become a Rockefeller." As he has at sessions with oth er Southern delegations, Nixon suggested that while they may not he enthusiastic about some sec lions of the party platform, they should lake a look at Ihe Demo cratic platform.
