...John Kennedy's erstwhile competitors for the Democratic presidential nomination, Missouri's Stuart Symington has done the fastest fadeout from the public eye and from the Kennedy Administration plans. The other Democratic front runners-Lyndon Johnson, Adlai Stevenson and Hubert Humphrey-are very much in evidence, but Symington is conspicuously cold-shouldered.
