Announces Presidential Aims
Compiled by Mery Ann Mov/ery
(From the wire* of the Flitted Frews and Associated Press)
Sen. Ric hard Russell of < icorgia 'I'lmrsday announced his
candidacy for the Democratic nomination for the Presidency.
Russell's announcement prompted speculation on the possi
bility of a Democratic third party revolt. Russell led a revolt
in the Democratic convention in 194M, when lie collected 263
votes from 11 states. Hut the Senator did not join the Dixie
crat party.
Russell characterized himself as a Jeffersonian Democrat who be
lieves in the greatest practicable degree of local self-government. Five
Southern Governors Talmadgc of Georgia, Byrnes of South Carolina,
Battles of Virginia, Shivers of Texas and White of Mississippi an
nounced their support of Bussell. So did Sen. Harry Byrd of Virginia.
These leaders hope to create a Southern bloc of nine states which would
give them a balance of power In the electoral college, and through
the election Into the House of Representatives.
