Houston had beauty, Houston had distinction. It would not lack the authority of age and experience. From New York came Elizabeth Marbury, 72 years old by grace of exactly a week, vigorous social worker and business woman. Delegate Marbury could claim precedence, if she liked, over California's Gertrude Franklin Atherton, who will not be 71 until next Hallowe'en.
