oer Page 6 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Wednesday, July 23, 1952 VIRGINIA DELEGATES DRAFT PROPOSAL CENSURING COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN DEVER Says Dever Failed * To Adhere To Normal Rules Of Conduct CHICAGO (#—The Virginia dele- gation drafted a proposal today that the Democratic National Con- vention censure its temporary chairman, Gov. Paul A. Dever of Massachusetts, for the way he handled his office when a “loy- alty pledge” rule was adopted early Tuesday. Southerners are sore because Dever permitted Sen. Blair Moody of Michigan, sponsoring the “‘loy- alty pledge” as chairman of the Rules Committee, to take over the convention chairman’s stand. They aiso are angry because Dever deciared the rule adopted on a voice vote and without per- mitting a rolicall. Former Gev. William M. Tuck, delegate-at-large from Virginia, made public the following resolu- | tlon which he said he proposed to offer to the convention: “Whereas, at the Monday night session of the Democratic National Convention the temporary chair- man, Governor Paul A. Dever of Massachusetts, did permit an in- dividual delegate to the conven- tion, Senator Blair Moody of Mich- igan, to actually take over the duties and functions of the tem- porary chairman; and “Whereas, the said Governor Dever did thus fail to adhere to the normal rules of procedure for a temporary chairman and dele- gated to the senator from Michi- gan the full powers of the chair- manship, including the right to act as advocate, timekeeper, parlia- mentarian and ‘impartial’ judge all at the same time; and “Whereas, such conduct on the part of both participants was wit out precedent in our National Con- | vention and amounted to a flourish of parliamentary arrogance that knew no bounds, which was in- deed shocking to the sensibilities of fair-minded people everywhere. “Therefore, be it resolved, that this convention does hereby direct attention to the gross mishandling of his duties by the temporary chairman; and “Be it further resolved, that this convention does hereby censure and lemn the brazen action of the rary chairman.” Dever told a reporter he had not heard previously about the pro- Posed resolution. He added with a smile; “I suppose it will go to the Res- olutions Committee.” Boy Electrocuted Doing Good Deed PASCAGOULA, Miss. wy — A Tyear-old boy was killed by an electric shock when he sought to do a good deed A coroner's jury returned a ver dict of accidental death Tuesday after Sheldon Vernell Watley was found lying in a street holding a fallen 4-000-volt power line.
