	Estes Kefauver - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kefauver was born in Madisonville, Tennessee and attended the University of Tennessee and Yale University.
		On August 8, 1963, Kefauver suffered a massive heart attack on the floor of the Senate while attempting to place an antitrust amendment into a NASA appropriations bill which would have required that companies benefitting financially from the outcome of research subsidized by NASA reimburse NASA for the cost of the research.
		Although Kefauver would go on to win twelve of the fifteen primaries that were held that year, losing three to "favorite son" candidates, primaries were not, at that time, the main method of delegate selection for the national convention.

		Estes Kefauver was born on July 26, 1903, in the small farming community of Madisonville in East Tennessee.
		It was during the Democratic primary campaign in 1948 that Crump attempted to identify Kefauver in the minds of Tennessee voters as a fellow-traveler with communists and liberals by characterizing him as an instrument of unsavory "pinkos and communists" who worked on their behalf like the stealthy, nocturnal raccoon.
		Pulling on a coonskin cap, Kefauver retorted, "I may be a pet coon, but I'm not Boss Crump's pet coon." Kefauver won, and the trademark of the coonskin cap stuck with "the Keef" for the remainder of his political career as a symbol of the independent, progressive, nonconformist type of political leadership that he represented.

		Kefauver and his committee looked into it, listening to both sides, calling in psychologists who were certain of a connection, and calling in the publishers to offer an account of themselves.
		In one memorable exchange, Kefauver was grilling EC (for "Educational Comics") publisher William Gaines, who had claimed that "good taste" should be the only criterion of what should be publishable in a comic book.

		Toward the end of his life the late Senator Kefauver became increasingly concerned with getting to a wider audience the results of his inquiry into administered prices, which except for some aspects of the hearings on drugs and steel, had gone largely unreported by the press.
		Gass simply ignores the data placed in the record by Senator Kefauver showing that the U. steel producers not only enjoy a marked advantage over their European rivals with respect to materials costs but that their higher hourly wage rates appear to be offset by the greater productivity of the U. mills.
		Gass, Senator Kefauver did support the reduction of taxes on automobile imports; he did hold extensive hearings on Senator O'Mahoney's price notification bill; and his preference for competition over regulation stemmed not from naive Populism but from a sophisticated awareness of what tends to happen to regulatory agencies.
