WHITTIER, Calif. (P—Frank
A. Nixon has lost his long fight
to vote once more for his son,
Vice President Richard Nixon.
Death came quietly last night
to the 77-year-old former grocer.
He struggled nearly two weeks
against a combination of crucial
ailments, and then, realizing
the end was near, calmly ar-
ranged his own funeral services.
Earlier he had hoped to vote
again. "Im going to make it,”
he told his physician last week.
“I want to be around to vote in
N ovem ber."
The vice president, his two
brothers, Edward and F. Donald,
and their mother, Mrs. Hannah
Nixon, 71, were at the elder
Nixon’s side when he died. Mrs.
Nixon held his hand until the
end.
Dr. I. N. Kraushaar said a
pulmonary congestion was the
immediate cause of death. Ill
since a stomach ulcer hemor-
rhaged in July, he became crit-
ical Aug: 22, when an abdominal
artery ruptured. His physical
stamina amazed his physician.
“He’s a tough member of a
tough generation,” Dr. Kraush-
aar said.
The vice president took his
father’s death “pretty badly,”
friends said. He remained in
seclusion in the big- two-story
home in nearby La Habra.
He made no immediate an-
nouncement of his plans for
tomorrow, when he is scheduled
to speak before the American
Legion convention in Los
Angeles.
Dr. Kraushaar said the elder
Nixon told his eldest son earlier
“to go ahead with his obliga-
tions.” The vice president can-
celed plans for today and Fri-
day. But made no disclosures of

FORT WORTH (P)—A lead-
er of the faction of the Texas
Democratic party known as lib-
eral was here today for a battle
of bedrooms in preparation for
next week’s state convention.
Mrs.. Kathleen Voigt of San
Antonio repeated a charge that
the state Democratic chairman,
George Sandlin, had tied up all
Fort Worth’s hotel rooms for
the conservative delegates. She
plans to appeal to rooming
houses and Fort Worth, resi-
dents with extra bedrooms to
open their doors to the visitors.
She said other liberal leaders
will join her in a pre-convention
strategy meeting Friday.
A mass meeting of liberal
delegates was set for Monday
night, eve of the convention.
The liberal activity indicates
that the Fort Worth convention
may be one of the party’s hot-
test in years.
Mrs. Voigt said the Harris,
Bexar, Jefferson and McLennan
county delegations were as-
signed to hotels in Dallas and
added “they are not going to
Dallas.”
She said the Friday meeting
will be devoted to finding “ways
and means” of assuring that 489
contested liberal delegates, will
be seated. The votes are enough
to control the convention.
Mrs. Voigt said leaders named
in caucuses held in 26 senate
districts two weeks ago will be
present for the Friday session.
Hearings on the contests will
be heard Monday by a subcom-
mittee of the state Democratic
executive committee. I

over the guide force. He told a
reporter the order had been is-
sued by his predecessor during
the Republican-controlled 83rd
congress.
Johnson said he did not rein-
state the order when he took
over with the beginning of the
Democratic control of the house
in 1955, and that guides now
could tell about the incident if
asked. .
One guide said he thought the
reason for the ban originally
was that narration of the inci-
dent in which five congressmen
were wounded might provoke
some unstable tourist to try a
repeat performance.
Following the shooting a tow-
ering scaffolding was erected in
the chamber to patch a bullet
hole which pierced the ceiling
and sometimes led to questions
by curious tourists.

Ban on Details of

WASHINGTON (P)-A Texas
congressman's news letter to-

whether capitol guides are pro-

about the March 1, 1954, shoot-

tives.
Rep. Rogers (D-Tex) said he
was told the ban was in effect
when he accompanied a group
of his constituents on the reg-
ular 25-cent guided tour of the
capitol. He related:
