Description
(Original Caption) Fourth Party Candidate. Birmingham, Alabama: Gov. J. Strom Thurmond, of South Carolina, was nominated as States' Right candidate at the rump convention held in Birmingham on by southern recalcitrants. The Southerners took this drastic action after the Democratic convention added President Truman's civil rights program of its party platform. Mississippi governor Fielding L. Wright will be running mate on the all southern rebel ticket. Some southern leaders have objected strongly to the Dixie bolt.
