S. Democrats
plea for party unity whJoh would
accept -Southern Democrats as full 1
“partners.”
In. another morning session, a ,
special study group recommended j
that the Democrats pass up a mid- ,
term convention in 1954 and con- j
centra te on regional meetings to ;
line up their congressional cam
paign. A mid-term convention, re
jection of which had been expect
ed, would have Inevitably come up ,
against the party loyalty oath is
sue which leaders hope to defer
amicably,
Peters began by saying that
Georgia gave the party’s 1963 pre
sidential nominee, Adlai Stevenson,
the largest majority of any state.
“The thing that did more harm
to the South than anything else
wa« the 1953 convention here in
Chicago,” he said. “Millions of Am
ericans are looking at television.
They can see the expressions on
your faces. They watoh your eyes.
They know when something is
phony.
“We cannot have any more of
that. Ton are going to lose the
Democratic Party In the South un
less you do something about it.”
SAYS GEORGIA IGNORED
He said there had taken less than
four party appointments from
Georgia.
“You cannot forget About us,” he
said, pounding the table. “We won’t
forget you.
“That loyalty pledge is an insult
to the South and to .us—we who
have supported the party for 50
or 80 years.” ,
Then Peters pleaded: “Take us
into partnership.”
“We will work with you and we
will vote with you but you have
to take us into partnership. It Is
no longer a solid South.
"In the 1956 election we will vote
for the candidate. The outcome of
the . 1956 presidential election de
pends on two things—what you do
and what the Republicans da
Please take us into partnership.”
More agreed, saying that “un
less we change our course the
American people are going to lose
a great many Democrats we Dem
ocrats gave them.”
PLEADS FOR HARMONY
“The American people cannot,
stand another Republican admin
istration. We’ve got to quit fight
ing with the South and in 1958
we've got to get a candidate who
is acceptable to them and to us,”
he added.
Another Southerner, State Chair
man L. Marion Gressette of South
Carolina, proposed that the state
chairmen go on record as asking
■the party to drop the-loyalty oath
but other chairmen protested that
Such a move might “embarrass
the party.”,

CHICAGO IW Former Presi
dent Harry 8. Truman modestly
introduced Adlai K. Stevenson to
a Democratic women’s tea, calling
him “the Number One Democrat
in the U.. S.” f ■
Stevenson demurely answered,
“I don't think there will be any
other Mr. Democrat as long ss Mr.
Truman is alive ”
The tea was held yesterday in
conjunction with the Demoratlc
party meeting here.
Stevenson, noting that he and
Mr. Truman were an a, balcony
