A Well-Merited

Free Ride

(The Richmond News Leader)

Friday, April 9, 1954

It is a tribute to A Willis Robertson’s long service to Virginia that no one can be found to tilt against him in A July primary election. Perhaps the verb is ill chosen, for “can be found” suggests that someone is actively looking for a likely candidate to take horn on; it is Mr. Robertson’s good fortune (one can imagine how his colleagues envy him) that no organization opposition to his re-electk n exists at primary time. The Republicans may ,be heard from in No«vember, but even that remains an iffy prospect.
