The dramatic climax of the convention overshadowed the fight for the presidential nomination which became a rout when the southerners switched from Governor Ben Laney. of Arkansas, their announced candidate, to Senator Richard B.

Southern delegates led by Gov. Dan Moody, of Texas, offered a minority report tq 'the .platform committee report containing a states rights program to supplement the civil rights plank adopted by the committee. Not only did the convention snow under this southern states offering by a vote of 925 to 309, but the convention then immediately adopted a minority report offered anti-semlt- BB RIFLE 1000 Shot Bed Ryder BB Rifle . ; :; $3.95 anti-catho- lic .
