Anil far Ninht af 1- uuii lor mgni ai i Without Nomination; Truman Climbs On High Rolling Stevenson Wagon from Cole Res '9 ns Wnmpn Hurt Grande Soulhern Some CFI De artmenls Civi nomen nun Brings mm for Io Resume Friday, 2- 1 I I A Convention Hall, Chicago, July IS--IB-- The Slh session ol the Jilt democratic national convention adjourned at 1:55 a.m. EST until 11 a.m. Friday. Convention Hall, Chicago, July Adlal Stevenson boom rocketed the Illinois governor toward the presidential nomination tonight and the forces powerins It put on a desperate winning battle to keep Virginia in tue democratic national convention. In retaliation, slz of the eight delegates In the South.

JlakoU del egatlon that Is pledged to Sen. Kates Kefauver bolted the floor ol the convention--but only for a matter of minutes. It was a scene of tension, drama and suspense in which democrats Interrupted the process ol candidate picking for a solid three hours ot roistering, furious. lighting over the north-south Issue of a party loyalty oath. Sam Rayburn, speaker of the house and chairman of the convention, had ruiid sorrowfully that Virginia--and Louisiana and'South Carolina--could not vote In the convention until they took the loyally pledge.

That's a promise lo return home and work; to get the party candl- datei on state ballots. All but three Irom Louisiana, with two votes among them, refused to do that. Virginia made It known that the party nominees, by law, 'will he on the November ballot In the old dominion state. Maryland proposes that on that basis Virginia delegates be allowed to slay on In the feuding convention. It took it roll call--a ballot such an seldom has been seen on a convention floor--to decide the Issue.

Stevenson Keeps i i i a At one point, enough votes had been cast to keep i i i a from taking part In the convention decisions. But SJevenson forces went to work and delegation after delegation was persuaded to switch or alter its vote. Illinois--Stevenson's home slate --at first had voted largely against the motion to recognize Virginia. Then It led the change-over In a strategy move designed.to give the cue to other Stevenson strongholds. Rayburn rilled that the three Loulslanana still left In the convention could'cast alUO votes the state originally had, unless one of the memben challenged the absence of i Quorum.

Kefauver lieutenants In Sou In Dakota saw the trend and who was behind It. The South Dakota chairman rose and announced that the delegation was taking a walk In "protest against the grossly a i methods of the chairman." The South Dakotans yanked their state banner out of Its standard and paraded Out a renv door. bit later they paraded back again, then six the eight left once more. They had tried, lo get recognition from a He stared stonily and turned away. Eventually, after a roll call that took well over two hours, the results were announced: 615 to let Virginia operate in the convention, 629 against with 86 not counted.

Raybuvn set the roll call of the states In motion ooce more, asking for presidential nominating speeches. A favorite son of Massachusetts, 'Gov. Paul Dever, was proposed, by Thomas F. Morlarty ot Springfield, Mass. Impassionalely, he proclaimed that It would be "Immoral" to deprive them of that right Stevenson's name was put in nomination and a great groundswell swept him toward the presidential banner he has said he doesn't want.

President Truman leaped pub- 'llcly aboard the bandwagon the rank-and-file delegates themselves had set rolling. The White House announced he had instructed his alternate at the convention to vole for Stevenson. The speech nominating Steven- ion came late In the day. "1 plnce before you," declared Gov. Henry F.

Schricker ot neighboring Indiana, "the man we cannot permit to say no." "A great groundswell, a political chain reaction." "He excited the imagination," Schrlcker said, "fired the of the American people calufcity lor confident leadership magnificent trustee of the a i i heritage of the democratic party a compassionate man sensitive to inequality and Injustice a man of unquestioned Integrity has convictions courage." Truman Climbs A a Truman associates let the word get around that they hear Steven- fon Is "the man." Hut It was rank and delegates who were in control ot this convention--not the President of the United Slates. Truman's was just oue more voice --even if au important one--added to tbe clamor for the Illinois governor. Louisiana, South Carolina and Virginia delegates, still refusing 10 take party loyally oaths, held uneasy seats on the convention floor. Minnesota promised to challenge If they attempted to vote. There were signs of a crack, though.

In the solid front of the three Dlxlo states. Louisiana delegates quarreled bitterly at a caucus, and Senator Russell Long ot Louisiana emerged to say hotly: "It's my impression that this delegation wauls lo put the republican nominee on the democratic ticket in my state. That Is fundamentally Immoral. That's what happened in 1948." Today's convention session got under way nearly an hour and a half late, and delegates dug In for a long stay In the political trenches. It was 12:25 p.m.
