Stevenson Doesn't Court the Westerners
Delegates from some of thei Western states have hurt feelings. No one from Stevenson camp has approached them, solicited support. It’s in sharp contrast with the way all delegates were courted during “GOP convention. There— with the close division betweeen Taft and Eisenhower-—every vote counted.
