TEW MEDFORD (OREGON! MAIL TRIBUNE Friday, June 8. 1936 Stevenson's Campaign Advisers To Confer on Wooing Delegates Washington ).P "Adlai E Stevenson's campaign advisers will confer in Chicago this week end about ways of wooing dele Kates who are uncommitted, pledged to favorite sons or still to be chosen. They also are expected to eye those delegates who are com mitted to a first ballot vote for Sen. Estes Kefauver at the Democratic national convention but are not firmly tied there after. These involve such states as Indiana, which will have 26 votes, and Maryland with 18. Stevenson topped Kefauver in the California presidential pri mary this week and thereby establisehd himself as the lead ing contender for the presiden tial nomination. Although Ke fauver said he would continue his campaign, many Democrats believe he was killed off In Cal ifornia. Will Remain in West While his advisers discuss strategy to be followed between now and the national conven tion in August, Stevenson will remain in California for a holi day. He and his backers now re gard Gov. Averell Harriman of New York as their principal op ponent Sen. Stuart Symington of Missouri may be a formidable dark horse possibility but only if and when the Stevenson cam paign falls apart. Much attention will be given to the 10 states which still must choose delegates with 238 con vention votes. With the primar ies now finished, all these will be named by state Democratic conventions or executive committees. I Don Edwards i District Agent 414 E.

Jerry Nye, Sandra Owens, David Seit zinger, Sheyla Thompson. Terry Upton, Charles Wall, Nelda Wal lace and Charles Workman. These states are New Mexico. Arizona, Tennessee. Washington, Kentucky, Mississippi, Colorado, Virginia, and Arkansas. New York still must select delegates at large with 12 votes. As of now, it appears to be a conservative estimate that Stev enson can count on 450 or more first ballot votes at the national convention. The majority needed to nominate is 686 Vx. ' Credited Wiih 377 The United Press tabulation now credits Stevenson with 377 votes from delegates committed or known to have a first ballot preference. This figure does not include a sizeable number of delegates from the South and elsewhere who are reported to be leaning toward the former Illinois gov ernor. It also excludes Massa chusetts where Stevenson forces claim a majority of the 40-vote delegation after a first ballot vote for a favorite son. Rep. John W. McCormack. New Jersey, with 35V4 un committed votes, also is consid ered fertile territory to be culti vated by Stevenson. Other states with large dele gale blocs committed to favorite sons inculde Texas with 40 votes pledged to Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson, Ohoi, with 54 for Gov. Frank J. Lausche and Michigan with 40 for Gov. G. Mennen Williams. Tuny Bullis Injured In Auto Accident Seth M.
