Pepper declared that while he would not actively seek a j, lace on the national ticket, relth'-r would he diwlge an opjuirlunity to make the race. Furthermore. he asserted. Wallace would be an acceptable running mate "if the lightning should strike'" Asked bluntly if he would rather see Wallace in the White House than Mr. Truman, Pepper | candidly replied: "Yes, | would rather have Wallace."
