By ALAN PAYNE
Battalion Editor
It all ends Saturday!
One of Texas’ most active politi
cal campaigns, a massive thing
that began back last winter and
has blossomed with the coming of
spring, comes to a climactic end
Saturday when nearly a million
and a half voters will trek to the
polls to vote in both Democratic
and Republican primaries.
Campaigning for state-wide po
sitions has left little to the imagi
nation as over 50 candidates have
spanned the Lone Star State sev
eral times in quest of voters.
Most interest and participation
has doubtless been given the race
for Texas’ governorship, where
five Democrats and two Republi
cans are challenging three-time
state leader Price Daniel.
Facing Daniel, who is seeking
an unprecedented fourth term in
office, are Democrats Will Wilson,
Marshall Formby, Don Yar
borough,, John Connally and Ed
win A. Walker, and Republicans
Jack Cox and Roy Whittenberg.
Therefore, the Republican win
ner will face the victor of a June
2 Democratic run-off election, in
next fall’s general election. There
is little possibility of an outright
Democratic winner in Saturday’s
primary.
Issues in the governor’s race
have taken many shapes and forms,
with the following probably most
prominent.
Price Daniel
Daniel has been emphasizing the
success of his previous terms, plus
the chance to complete all of his
projects during a fourth term.
He has called his most import
ant issue the passage of a ten-
point law enforcement program.
The proposed program would in
clude stronger criminal laws, addi
tional curbs on narcotics and bar-

biturates and stronger controls bn
lobbyists.
Don Yarborough
Probably the most liberal candi
date, Yarborough has called lead
ership and education his primary
issues in the race. He says the
fundamental issue is whether Tex
as “is going to obtain the quality
of leadership necessary to meet
the challenge of the ’60’s.”
In education, he proposes to use
the $14 billion now used on re
search for scientific and techno
logical advances.
John Connally
Connally has also campaigned
for better leadership, plus a more
positive economic program.
He has gone on record as oppos
ing Daniel’s reelection because of
the present 86 million state deficit.
Marshall Formby
Formby in his campaign has also
emphasized the need to put the
state on a cash basis. He has
called the most important im
portant issue, however, “whether
Texans will elect a governor who
will not be dominated by Lyndon
B. Johnson and his gang.”
His economic proposals are
based on what he calls a need to
attract more industry to the state.
Will Wilson
Wilson has campaigned against
both Connally and Daniel, accus
ing Connally of federal connections
and Daniel of holding excessive
power.
