What are a delegate's "best efforts"? Since Kefauver received better than 70 per cent of he democrats' votes in the May primary, he ought to eserve actually the delegation s best efforts, regard- ss of the individual delegates' personal preferences. Perhaps tho degree of effort amounts to a matter of nnscienre, since there is no ruling to act as a yardstick of best efforts. The signed pledge demands that there ye little leeway in exercising that conscience. The delega tion would appear pledged to go down the line for Kefatl- er until ensuing roll-call votes at the convention make it ppear that the man in the coon-skin cap hasn't a chance or the Democrats' choice for president. Since there appears to be no cuUand-driod rule on how lany ballots the delegates must stick to the state's choice f candidate, then the delegates are going to have to rely n their conscience.
