unequivocally for Calvert. Many
of them credited him with having
swung the September, 1944, con-

column, and they also advocated
him as a man experienced in pub-

many conservative Democrats.
Time to Tell Strength
Only time will tell how the Cal-
vert boom will go with the entire
party leadership, including those
at the top, their close advisors,
and the district and county lead-
ers who are probably better or-
ganized at this time than ever
before in party history. The ex-
ecutive committee never official-
ly approves a candidate, but from
the standpoint of the present com-
mittee, a successful candidate
whether it be Calvert or some oth-
er, would be just what the doctor
ordered.
Among those not present at
Waco were Harry Seay, chairman
of the executive committee and W.

today that the Japanese had used
poison gas against American

signal corps area at Biak, New

were made severly ill but none
killed.________________________t
