Election Changes
Eyed By GOP
HOUSTON (AP>-Texas Repub-
licans will try to get the legisla-
ture to change the Texas Election
Code so there will be no more
confusion about how improperly
marked ballots should be treated. i
Three Texas Republican lead-
ers made a joint statement Tues-
day saying they plan no appeal
from the federal court's ruling .
against their suit of a recount of i
Texas' votes in the presidential'
election. Thad Hutcheson, state
GOP chairman, said the Republi- 1
cans will present “specific rec-
ommendations'’ to the legislature '
next year.

NATIONALLY ADVERTISED
master
John G. Tower, declaring himself
“the only genuine conservative
candidate,” Tuesday announced
his candidacy for <he U.S. Senate.
The former Wichita Falls gov-
ernment professor, defeated in his
race for the Senate seat in the
Nov. 8 general election, said: "I
think I can win without a runoff.”
Tower was defeated by Vice
President-elect Lyndon B. John-
son after a heated campaign and
a strong race.
Tower told a press conference
that the biggest job facing Con-
gress is “to put the brakes on
these purported liberal schemes

and undermine our rights.”
He said he is "the only genuine
conservative candidate now in the
race." He implied that former
Sen. William A- Blakley of Dallas,
a well-known conservative and an
announced candidate, leans to-
ward the liberals.
"What is a ‘new frontier’ con-
servative.” he said, referring to
Blakley's support of the Demo-
crats in the general election.
He calai U.S. Rep. Jim Wright
and State Sen. Henry B. Gonzalez,
both candidates in the special
Senate race, “certainly liberals.”
He said “Gonzalez is a well known
liberal, the darling of the ultra-
liberals.” He claimed Wright
voted with conservative congress-
men only 28 per cent of the time.
The 35-year-old Tower, labelling
the Republican platform versus
the Democratic platform as “rea-
son vs. radicalism,” said the GOP
platform is more realistic and
more conservative than the Dem-
ocratic.
He said he would campaign on
his conservative platform he used
in the general election. He then
polled 926,653 votes while Johnson
received 1,306,325.
He describes himself as a mod-
erate in civil rights, a believer
in "fiscal responsibilty," an op-
pointment of deficit government
spending and an advocate of
states rights, “state responsibil-
agmzesis.''

from federal subsidy and con-
trol.”
Towers announcement Tuesday
apparently gave no answer to
speculation that former Gov. Al-
lan Shivers will enter the race.
Shivers said in New York that
he had no comment except that
“I still have it under considera-
tion.”
Some political observers said
earlier they did not believe Tower
would run if Shivers sought the
job.
Tower said he will have “the
support of the GOP organization.”
He said he conferred Tuesday
with State Republican Chairman
Thad Hutcheson at Houston and
National GOP Chairman Thruston
Morton by telephone.
