Political rally planning was a
widely recognized pastime in Tex-»
as Wednesday.
Houston Democrats planned a
big informal gathering to open
Harris County campaign head
quarters Thursday night with na
tional Democratic committecwo-
man Mrs. Frankie Randolph in
charge.
Republicans in Houstin contin
ued preparations for the visit of
Vice President Nixon to Houston
next Tuesday.
The national Democratic cam
paign which got a Texas boost at
a rally at Greenville Tuesday night
will spurt again Oct. 1 when vice
presidental nominee Estes Kefau-
ver visits Waco.
Tennesse Gov. Frank Clement
is scheduled to appear Oct. 2 at
a testimonial dinner in Houston.
Meanwhile, Texas Democrats
kept up a running argument over
the merits and demerits of the
party primary plan suggested to
choose U. S. Sen. Price Daniel’s
successor.
Daniel said Tuesday he felt there
was no question about the legality
of his party primary plan although
they were still study ways to fi
nance such primaries.
Congressman-at-large Martin
Dies said he hoped the senatorial
party primary would be set to co
incide with the Nov. 6 general elec
tion, with the party runoff, if
necessary, to be held at the same
time as the special state constitu
tional election Nov. 13. He pre
dicted the final special senate elec
tion would be set some time in De
cember.
Dies said he did not feel that
his nomination for congressman
at large and his announced caridi-

dacy for Daniel’s senate seat
would conflict.
Dies said that if he were nomi
nated by the Democrats and then
won the special senate election he
then would resign from his con-
gressman-at-large job. The state
legislature could either call a
statewide election to fill the va
cancy or could authorize an in
terim congressman from one of
the three ovei-populated ‘ districts—
Houston, Dallas or the Panhandle
—and confine the special election
to that district.
