Lyndon Johnson in order to form a more perfect Democratic party organization in the nation and in this state for the benefit of all the people of these United States and in this state for the people of Texas united behind thr program of moderation which Ms record as majority leader of the Senate The convention also went on record extending an invitation to the State Democratic Executive Committee to consider Lubbock as the September, 1958 convention city. At the outset of the calm and harmonious session, two votes were registered on the voice vote for County Democratic Chairman Robt. E. Dennis as temporary chairman of the convention but the proceedings progressed very far before everything became unanimous. The vote decreased to one and then there was no vocal opposition.

One Pro-Shivers Group Attends Only one pro-Shivers contested delegation, the group from the Precinct No. 16 convention at Hutchinson Junior High School, made a claim for seating in the convention. One other pro-Shivers precinct No. 1, did not answer the roll call vote. The credentials committee decided in favor of the Johnson delegates from the precinct after the Shivers chairman admitted that his delegation had left the designated convention meeting place and was outnumbered about four to one.

J. H. Brewer of Slaton was elected secretary unanimously and Mrs. Donald J. Tate, Mrs.

Ernest Griffith and Mrs. IVm. S. Magness were elected assistant secretaries. Former State Sen.
