Candidate of 1952
Expected To Tell
Plans Next Week
Washington (U.R) Sen.
Hubert H. Humphrey (D-Minn.)
said today he expects most of
the "favorite son" candidates for
t h Democratic presidential
nomination to throw their sup
port eventually to Adlai E.
o
Stevenson.
Stevenson, the 1952 nominee
who lost to President Eisen
hower, is expected to announce
his candidacy for the 1956 nom
ination from Chicago next -week.
"I think a majority of the fa
vorite sons will be for Stevenson i
when all is said and done," said
Humphrey, who already has de- j
clared for the former Illinois
governor. "In my opinion, Ste-
venson is away out in front and
I would expect him to increase
his commanding lead."
Stevenson Invited
"Favorite son" candidates are
put forward by their own state
delegations both to honor the
candidates and to avoid com
mitting delegations at national
nominating conventions until the
outlook crystallizes. A favorite
son could emerge as victor from
a deadlocked convention.
Among Democrats who are
being discussed as possible fa
vorite son candidates are Gov.
Robert B. Meyner of New Jer
sey, Gov. Frank J. Lausche of
Ohio, Senate Democratic Leader
Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas and
Gov. G. Mennen Williams of
Michigan.
Humphrey and other Minne
sota Democratic leaders already
have invited Stevenson to enter
the Minnesota presidential pri
mary next March 20. Stevenson
is expected to agree.
"I wouldn't expect there
would be any opposition," Hum
phrey said.
Other political developments:
Hall Criticizes Congress
1. Republican National chair
man Leonard W. Hall charged
that the Democratic-controlled
84th Congress "has been a mis
erable failure so far" and has
"roadblocked" President Eisen
hower's domestic program. He
made the statement in the cur
rent issue of "Straight From
The Shoulder," official publica
tion of the GOP National Com
mittee. 2. Sen. Humphrey countered
with a statement that the Demo
crats did block a "bonds for
boulevards" highway program
and a school building program
that would have provided for
consultation "with bond brokers
ntually
about school finances" instead
of school construction. "My only
regret," he said "is that we were
unable to block the Eisenhower
special privilege big business
tax grab. . ."
3. Democratic National Chair
man Paul M. Butler said Repub
licans have served notice that
"the GOP considers its conduct
Support
Steetison
of public affairs none of the pub-,
lie's business." He made the
comment in reply to a GOP Na
tional Committee statement of
last week. The GOP said Demo
cratic - controlled congressional
investigating committees are
conducting a "smear campaign
of immense proportions" in an
effort to get campaign material.

Barmaid Held -for
Questioning in
Death of Boys
New Orleans (U.R) A pretty
barmaid was held today in the
"rat poison" deaths of two small
brothers who authorities first
believed died from contaminated
food rummaged from garbage
cans but she denied the accusa
tion. The 27-year-old brunette, iden
tified as Mrs. Mary Falcon, had
a fight with the boys' mother
and threatened to "get even one
way or the other" a month be
fore the boys died, police said.
Rule Violation Costs Job
Mrs. Falcon, also known by
the aliases of Mrs. William Hart
and Mary Jackson, had been
receiving $12 a week free lodg
ings for collecting rent at the
rooming house where the two
brothers lived. But she lost her
job, police said, when the land
lady discovered there were more
than two children in . the vic
tims' family, a violation of the
owners' rules.
The boys, William Jr., 7, and
Lawrence Baughman, 6, lived
with their parents and five other
children. Their father was an
unemployed dock worker who
had been ill for some time.
Lived on Handouts
The Baughmans, according to
neighbors, had lived solely on
the handouts from nuns, which
consisted of $7 worth of grocery
donations per week for about
three weeks before the boys
died. The neighbors told police
the children were always beg
ging for food and scavenging
scraps from garbage cans.
At the time the boys died
at Charity hospital Oct. 13, au
thorities first attributed their
deaths to malnutrition but the
coroner later ruled their deaths
were caused by a rat poison.
In the suspect's apartment
police found poison tablets, used
for killing rats and insects, and
in her purse she carried news
paper clippings about the boys'
deaths.
Deer Wouldn't Die;
Hunters Fined $50
Onaway, Mich. (U.R) Three
youths were fined S50 each Mon
day for shooting game out of j
season because a deer refused to
stay dead.
A conservation officer arrest
ed the trio when the deer, which
was only wounded, poked his
head from the trunk of their
car.
