Any fair appraisal of. this touchy situation must recognize that some of the Southern state delegations were not to their liking.

The Moody resolution simply called this bluff and forced the issue to a showdown. Realizing that they were In the minority, the Southern leaders at Chicago this year showed signs of wanting to compromise on nearly every facet of the Civil Rights issue. All the Southerners asked this year was a program that they could get the people in their states to accept for the gradual elimination of racial discrimination. But the Northern liberals would have none of that gradualism.

They wanted everything now; If this action does not mark the birth of a newer, much more liberal Democratic Party, It at least marks the death of the old as it was.

A Lr Patterson of Alabama, both supporters of the candidacy of Sen. Estes Kefauver of Tennessee; As the two-hour drama of the long tiight session unfolded In the Chicago Stockyard Amphl theatre, the ruthlessness of the Northern group, supporting Sen. Moody's resolution requiring 'a loyalty pledge for all convention delegates, was apparent at all times.

They had the votes and they had the power and they used them without mercy. 4 Jonathan Daniels of North, Carolina, editor of the Raleigh News and Observer and one of the great liberals of the New South, made a desperate plea for moderation with his substitute motion. It would have merely cited an honorable cdllrse for convention delegates In supporting the party's nominees, without requiring the sterner Moody loyalty pledge. But the Yankee horsemen rode Daniels down. And a majority, of the delegates supported their action.

The Greenwood Concrete Company, whose plant has been under construction oh Carolina since mld-Aprll, will begin limited operations this week, reports Don Shelton, builder and general manager of the new concern1. Concrete products of all kinds will be made at the plant, which will employ about eight persons. Full-scale operations are due to begin in about 30 days. The Greenwood Concrete Company is owned by. George Lloyd of Anderson and Sam Breen of Rock Hin.

They operate similar concerns in those cities. The plant here is described as one of the most modern in the 8outh.

Edgar A. Brown, State Party Executive Committee of political conventions, and Sen. George Smathers, attending his first, have been highly acUve in Russell's drive. Florida gave Russell an 82.000-vote preference vote over Sen. Estes Kefauver In Florida's May 6 primary, and three weeks later elected 19 of 24 delegates pledged to the Georgian.

The one-sided split In the Florida delegation- has occasioned no disharmony. Russell backers, including the two Florida senators, told a reporter they are convinced that Kefauver will drop out of the balloting and that the state's entire 24 votes then, will go to Russell, if he remains in the running.

Etates' Rights were trampled under foot in the convention stampede. The inference was clear that If the Southerners didn't like what was going on, they could lump it.
