Daniel said he would support

Allan Shivers, headed the group

"The campaign which is being
organized by friends of Senator
Johnson is not limited to Texas
or to a favorite son status. It
will become an all out drive
for the nomination.
"In view of this fact, I thjnk

of the Texas delegation would
be helpful to Sen. Johnson's

to unity of our efforts here in

The most common type of cat'ar-
ract and one which optometrists see
daily is the Senile Cataract. It is
quite common after age 50, oc-
casionally found as early as 40.
Almost always the senile cataract
is found in both eyes although one
eye is usually more advanced than
the other.
