Senator George To Seek Reelection Georgia Democrat May Have Opponent WASHINGTON (INS) — Intimates of senate foreign relations chairman Walter F. George said today he “has his dander up” and may be expected to announce for reelection in December. The 77-year-old Georgia Democrat may have former Gov. Herman Talmadge as a 1956 primaryopponent.

Friends are convinced he is thus laying the groundwork for another campaign — despite the fears of
