| Description: | Master 1497 - Tape 1 MS Democratic Presidential hopeful ADLAI STEVENSON being interviewed outside campaign bus the day before the California primary, 1956: "Well, I expect to win here in California. I've traveled all over the state. I've had a very fortunate, exhilarating experience of seeing much of California that I've never seen before. This is my native state, you know. But I haven't seen all of the towns that I've had the good fortune to visit during the campaign. Everywhere the welcome has been cordial; it's been warm, it's been enthusiastic & I'm grateful to my supporters. I think they are going to express their confidence in me tomorrow." MSs Democratic Presidential hopeful Sen. ESTES KEFAUVER (D-TN) being interviewed on primary election eve: "No, Jack, I've enjoyed this campaign in California. The people have responded wonderfully. They've given me a good reception & I've had a marvelous time out here." Etc. "I think they're going to give me as a candidate an opportunity of putting on an aggressive campaign against Mr. Eisenhower. We're going to win in California in November, elect a whole lot more Democratic Congressmen & Senators & put this state back into the Democratic fold where it belongs." "The California primary is of tremendous importance." "We're going to sharpen up the issues between the Democrats & the Republicans by an aggressive, hard-hitting campaign." Sen. Kefauver discusses his plans for the following day, then says he's going to fly back to Washington DC to be with his family. MSs Adlai Stevenson being interviewed outside campaign bus (reporter asks same questions of Mr Stevenson as those asked of Sen Kefauver). | |
