SAN FRANCISCO. Cal.. June 27.
Both wets and drys today launched
their planks on the democratic seas
of alcoholic differences with a stormy
passage promised to the final harbor
of the convention floor.
For the drys, William Jennings Bry
an made public his proposed plank,
a sweeping declaration for enforce
ment of the Volstead law without
increase in beverages' alcoholic con
tent. From the wet camp came alterna
tive planks drafted by Postinaster
Clrneml Burleson: one declares for
"individual liberty" and modification
of the Volstead law to remove the
"drastic and unreasonable features"
and the alternative for amendment
. permitting beverages "in fact not in
toxicating." Third faction Enters.
The planks are to be presented to
the resolutions committee upon its
organization and regardless of the
outcome there it was generally ex
pected that the 1'quor fight would
reach the convention itself.
With both wet and dry factions
working hard all day there also was
a utrnnir movement to prevent any
mention of the liquor question in the
platform, a movement backed by many
powerful leaders.
The Bryan prohibition plank fol
lows: "We heartily congratulate the
democratic party on its splendid
leadership in the submission and
ratification of the prohibition amend
ment to the federal constitution and
we pledge the party to the effective
enforcement of the- Volstead law.
honestly and in good faith without
any increase in the alcoholic, content
of permitted beverages and without
any weakening of any other of its
provisions."
"I guess there is no doubt about
what that means," said Mr. Bryan.
"We will give every delegate a chance
to go on record for or against it. I
expect to have it adopted by the
resolutions committee."
Burleson Given Out Planks.
Mr. Burleson, after reading the
k Bryan plank, gave out his proposals
declaring, however, that he had
drafted them by himself and spoke
only for himself and was not to be
. regarded as the leader of the forces
favoring modification of present
la ws.
The proposed plank, which Mr.
Burleson said he believed would met
the sentiment of the "great majority
of ' the American people," reads:
"The open saloon has been generally
tondemned by the American people as
a menace to society and the well
being of the people and its restora
tion should not be tolerated. The
validity of the 18th amendment to
the constitution having been sus
tained by the supreme court, any
law enacted under its authority must
be strictly enforced. However, the
democratic party pledges its utmost
endeavors to prevent this new grant
of federal power from being exer
cised in such manner as to become
oppressive or deprive the people of
that individual liberty which it was
the purpose of the union of states to
guarantee and preserve through all
time.
"Art Held Extreme."
"The Volstead act. vetoed by a demo
cratic president and passed over his
veto by a republican congress, is an
extreme exercise of the powers grant
ed by the 18th amendment and It
should be so amended in strict con
formity with the spirit and purpose
of the constitution so as to eliminate
therefrom its drastic and unreason
able features. We favor an amend
ment to the federal constitution re
quiring all amendments hereafter pro
posed thereto to be ratified or re
iected by a referendum of the quali
tied voters of the several states of
the union."
Administration Force Split.
"Mr. Bryan's bone-dry plank," said
Mr. Burleson,' "upholds a law vetoed
by a democratic president. My plank
neither dodges nor straddles and 1 be
lieve expresses the sentiment of the
great majority of the people of the
United States.
His alternative plank, for a ban on
actually intoxicating beverages only.
Mr. BurlnKon said, "could be supported
by those who urge a silent platform
on the issue.
That he was not speaking, either for
the "modif icationists" or the presi
dent, was emphasized by Mr. Burle
on. The administration forces of the
convention appeared drvided on the
whole question, Mr. Burleson being
supported by Secretary Colby while
Secretary Daniels and Senator Glass
of Virginia, regarded as equally close
to the administration, are in the dry
line-up.
Additional fuel to the flames over
prohibition were added by Mr. Bryan
in an address today under auspices of
the San Francisco Y. M. C. A., in which
he reiterated his views on what' he
regards as the paramount iBsue.
A vigorous attack on Mr. Bryan
was issued by James R. Nugent, New
Jersey wet leader and the state's rep
resentative on the resolutions com
mittee. Mr. Bryan, was characterized
ny Mr. Nugent as a "paid agent of
the Anti-Saloon league." The Nebras
kan. Mr. Nugent declared, was not a
true democrat, but should "head the
prohibition party."
Bryan HltH at Harding,
Three democrats, Mr. Bryan de
clared in his address without specifi
cations, "are impudent enough to be
lieve the American people will put into
the White House" a president pledged
to modify the prohibition laws. He
also criticised the republican candi
date and platform, declaring the lat-
. ter was silent on prohibition while
the candidate had said in the senate
that he was not a prohibitionist, did
not believe the question a political
one and favored compensation for
liquor interests destroyed.
Mr. Bryan also discussed the leag&e
of nations, profiteering and industrial
relations.
"Shame on any democrat or repub
lican to think of any party advantage,
on this world-peace question," said
Mr. Bryan, regarding the league of
nations. "Let's stop quarreling pver
little things, reservations, and get into
the league of nations and speak peace
to the world," he added, also urging
world disarmament.
dozen of the other. I shfc.ll cast my
vote for Mr. McAdoo until such time
arrives as I can place before the con
vention the name of Senator George
E. . Chamberlain. Oregon's foremost
citizen and one of the country's
greatest statesmen. 1
"I also wish to say that I have al
ways been a great, admirer of Wil
liam Jennings Bryan ant" that I stand
squarely with Bryan on the league
of nations and prohibition."
As Mr. Purdy took his seat, the rest
of the delegation appeared speechless
until Judge Crawford rushed to the
reseue with his motion to proceed,
thereby Shutting off further discus
sion. Evidence developed later that the
nerves of the delegation were not en
tirely quieted over the Purdy remarks
when Lee M. Travis of Eugene, first
district delegate, arose and moved
that no member of the delegation be
permitted to address the convention
without first obtaining the consent of
the remainder of the delegation. That
this motion was aimed to block the
nomination of Senator Chamberlain,
as promised by Mr. Purdy, was very
obvious, but the effect was almost, as
unsettling to the nerves of other dele
gates as the original Purdy speech.
Motion la Ruled Out.
.Scenting the danger of the delega
tion being led into the adoption of a
gag rule that might arouse severe
criticism, Will R. King, second dis
trict delegate, arose and said he would
have to oppose such a motion be-

cause it interfered with free expres
sion. C. J. Smith, chairman of the
democratic state central committee,
presiding, then ruled the Travis mo
tion out of order.
Only one other thrill marked the
proceedings and this was when dele
gate Purdy moved that the Oregon
member of the committee on resolu-.
tions be instructed to confer with
William Jennings Bryain on the pro
hibition plank and to go the limit
with Mr. Bryan in inserting a bone
dry plank in the' platform.
This brought Judge Crawford, who
already had been elected to the reso
lutions committee, to his feet in a
hurry with a protest against being
bound too tightly on the dry plank.
He said that in his opinion the pro
hibition question was settled. He
protested that he was dry and ready
to support the dry cause, but inti
mated that he desired to make his
own interpretation of what was "good
politics" on the prohibit ion -question.
Kins Makes Similar Speech.
Mr. King made a similar speech, de
claring that prohibition is a dead
issue, and by his support obtained a
withdrawal of the Purdy motion. Only
Mrs. Maria L. T. Hidden of Port
land., delegate at large, displayed
suspicion that the delegation was be
ing led into sidestepping the prohi
bition question. Mrs. Hidden essayed
to ask a clearer interpretation of the
delegation's position on the prohibi-
lon amendment and the Volstead act.
On further assurances from Judge
Crawford, she pressed the question no
further.
John L. Schuyleman of Portland,
who received 10,429 votes in the
state-wide primaries for delegate-at-
arge, and who is contesting the seat
of R. K. Turner of Roseburg. picked
by the state committee, sought to get
his case before the delegation, but
was ruled out of order by the chair
man. Each delegate was authorized
to name an alternate. Dr. J. W. Mor
row, national committeeman for Ore
gon, requesting, however, that the al
ternates be named from Oregon resi
dents present in San Francisco
that would relieve somewhat the press
on him for convention tickets.
McAdoo Declared Willing;.
Speaking of candidates. Dr. Mor
row ao assured the delegates that
W. G. McAdoo wo'ild accept the nom
iration for president if named by
the convention. He said he had been
assured by Mrs. Antoinette Funk
or unicago, who is here lining up
McAdoo support.
The only contest for a place In the
organization was for the committee
on credentials. This contest was be
tween Will R. King and Thomas H
Crawford, the latter receiving seven
votes to two tor Mr. King. C. J.
Smith, chairman of the democratic
state committee, presided until after
the organization was completed, when
John H. Stevenson, elected chairman
of the delegation, took the gavel. R,
K. lurner of Roseburg was chosen
secretary of the delegation
Mrs. Hidden was elected honorary
vice-chairman of the convention and
Mrs. Bessie Richards, the only ab
sent delegate, was named honorary
secretary.

of strength from original McAdoo
boomers who have been straying
away into other camps ai, the ex-sec-retary
has repeatedly declared he
would not become a candidate. Dele
gates who had originally made him
their first choice but made him sec
ond on his statements of declina
tion, immediately returned his name
to first place. Various state dele
gations agreed to vote for him. .
Turning; Move In Started.
As the news of Mr. Love's statement
spread there was immediately a turn
ing movement which began sweeping
the delegates who prefer McAdoo into
cohesive force which began at once
to renew efforts to bring about nis
nomination.
Up to the time of the Love state
ment, McAdoo boomers were estimat
ing their strength from 250 to as high
as 600.
The first effect of Mr. Love's state
ment was to create an immediate de
mand for further and more authori
tative information. In view of Mr. Mc
Adoo's repeated declaration that he
did not wish to become a candidate
many expressed the view that some
thing should be given- to the delegates
either from McAdoo himself or bear-j
ng in an unmistakable way his ap
proval.
Issues, rather than men, rurnisn tne
battleground for the democratic na
tional convention.
Candidates cannot be considered un
til prohibition, the league of nations
and the Irish question have been
fought out on the floor. Contests over
those planks in the party platform
seem inevitable, and the oonvention
is all set for a- stormy time.
The big fight Is over William J.
Bryan's determination to have "a
platform no wet can run on." On
this the administration or Wilson
forces appear so far to be pursuing
a hands-off policy. As yet no one
knows what to expect lrom the White
House.
Irlnu I.lne-Vn Not Clear.
On the league of nations issue the
administration forces are lined up for
a plank modeled after the Virginia
platform, which declares for a cove
nant "without destructive reserva
tions." Mr. Bryan and his assistants
want a declaration for the league
with reservations "to 'safeguard every
interest." ,
The lines of the fight over the Irish
question are not so 'Clearly defined.
Little change is apparent in the line
up of .strength of various candidates.
Cox and Palmer are expected to go in
for a test of strength on the first
ballots, much after the manner of the
Wood and Lowden race at the repub
lican convention. In the background
waiting to appear at what they con
sider the psychological moment, are
the invisible and intangible but ad
mittedly formidable forces working
for McAdoo.
Palmer Flrnt Cox Target.
The Cox people profess to have
enough strength to eliminate Palmer
on the preliminary ballots, and then
plan to pit their candidate against the
field, which, by nature of McAdoo's
position, includes him. The Palmer
forces, pointing to the anti-saloon
declarations of war on Cox and Bry
an's expressed views on the same sub
ject, predict that any accessions to
another candidafe v ill not be made
from their strength.
Meanwhile both the Cox and Pal
irer managers are borrowing dele
gates from the field to make a show
irg on the opening ballots. In line
with their policy of forcing the nomi
nation to call their candidate, the
McAdoo people are laying tmck in
the open, but are very busy among
the undercurrents corralling dele
gates for the moment when they
expect it will be made clear to the
convention thJt neither Cox nor Pal
mer can be nominated.
Late Action Held Possible.
They believe they have suVceeded
in prevailing upon those who want
to place Mr. McAdoo in formal nom
iration to forego such action and let
him be presented as a candidate when
Alabama casts her first ballot for
him. .
If the Cox- and Palmer forces can
have their own way thay will prevent
McAdoo from occupying a strategic
position in the rear. They contend
that the elements for him make of
his cause a candidacy which the con
vention must consider at the outset.
This condition presents three lead
ing candidates, as was the case in
the republican convention. The Cox
forces in particular are determined
that McAdoo' shall not be the Hard
ing of the convention.
Although the adranistration forces
claim complete control of the con
vention, this is challenged and by
men who disclaim any anti-administration
attitude. 'There was decided
evidence today of an attempt to dis
place the administration of Senator
Glass of Virginia as chairman of the
resolutions- committee. Those who op
pose him were claiming as high as
24 votes for Senator Walsh of Mon
tana, who has the, backing of Bryan.
Robinson Takes Colby's Place.
Senator Joseph T. Robinson of Ar
kansas has become the eleveuth-hour
choice for permanent chairman.
Chairman Cummings announced today
that Bainbridge Colby, secretary of
state, would step aside in favor of
Senator Robinson.
"Senator Robinson has been a stead
fast friend of the administration and
its policies," said Chairman Cum
n.ings, "and the delegates friendly
to the administration will' co-operate
to bring about his election.
Bryan Is Storm Center.
Out of all the preliminary skirmish
ing stands the fact that Bryan is
again the storm center. The prospect
of being in a minority disconcerts
him not a bit, in fact, the men who
have watched his methods for years
say he rather enjoys that position,
because it places him on the battle
line with an opportunity to lead a
crusade into the convention for a
cause which he is, by years of train
ing, preparation and experience, best
qualified to represent.
When his prohibition plank became
known today it was promptly dubbed
the "Mojave desert plank" because it
was so dry.
Opposed to that view, and with their
fighting clothes on, are administra
tion men who want to see the prohi
bition enforcement law liberalized
and in the last analysis they might
compromise on a "law and order
plank," merely declaring for the faith
ful enforcement of all constitutional
laws. .
Convention Is "Old-Tlmey."
While the convention with its great
bulk of Uninstructed delegates and
talk of deadlock between the leaders

it bears a marked resemblance to the
republican convention, in many other
respects it is markedly dissimilar. It
is more old-timey. ' It savors of
marching clubs and brass band sere
nades, with less of the button sticking
and badge pinning work in which
women workers were a large element
at Chicago.
Tomorrow the delegates will have
their first meeting and get their first

vention hall. For light, ventilation
and general comfort, the auditorium
is probably the most satisfactory
place in which a national convention
ever assembled.

SAN FRANCISCO. June 27 (Spe
cial.) The diffeience between a bossed
and an unbossed convention is that
an unbossed convention has a lot of
bosses instead of one.
So far this is an unbossed conven
tion. A tour of the various posts of
command already set up in the hotels
discloses the following captains of
hundreds, each with his own platform,
his own candidate and his own idea of
how to put them over. I
Bainbridge Colby, secretary of state,
supposedly is spokesman for an other- j
wise inarticulate administration. His i
platform is the league of nations and j
his candidate possibly McAdoo, and j
possibly Colby. '
Anything; to Win Wanted.
Homer Cummings of Connecticut is j
chairman of the national committee.
His platform is anything that will
win and his candidate is perhaps, Mc
Adoo and perhaps Cummins.
Charles Francis Murphy boss of
Tammany hall. New York also is
boss of the whole New York state
delegation. His platform is pro-liquor,
pro-labor and pro-business. His can
didate (in the open) is Alfred E. Smith,
governor of New York and (under
cover), James W. Cox of Ohio.
William Jennings Bryan of Nebras
ka, former boy-orator, is now neither
boy nor orator. His platform is Wil

with need of a dark horse to break William Jennings Bryan. And don't
let anybody tell you he isn t strong ;
for both the man and the issue. j
Despite the opposition of a number 1
of places of worship, all open today,
the delegates spent most of their time
trying to find out where they are I
going, or if, indeed, they are actually
on their way. j
Mr. Colby hadn't been awake ten ,
minutes before his Toom was entirely
surrounded by politicians who wanted
to know if he had brought any orders
from the president.
When he told them he had not, they
wanted to know what the orders were.
When he- insisted that he had no or
ders at all, they asked plaintively
why he was holding out on them.
All day Colby has been besieged
with these statesmen and there are
not more than a half dozen of them
who are sure that he isn't either the
bearer of a Wilson candidacy, or a
Wilson mandate for some particular
candidate.
Bryan may have remembered the
Sabbath day and doubtless that ex
emplar of piety kept it holy, but he
certainly violated the scriptural in
junction against doing work on the
seventh day. He was out of bed three
or four jumps ahead of the lark, ate
early a large breakfast and spent the
morning dashing from one place to
another taking verbal swats at the
wets as he dashed.
Bryan Working Hardest.
Bryan has always been a .hard
worker, but never in his life has he
worked as hard as he is working now.
He is so dry I doubt if he took a bath
this morning.
At the general headquarters of the
national committee. Homer Cummings.
who will be the boss of the conven
tion as soon as it feels the need of a
boss, was trying to arrange some def
inite and workable programme .to
bring order out of the present chaos.
Cummings is an able and a master
ful gentleman. He doesn t at all
agree that tne general despair oi
electing any democrat this year Is
justified. He figures that if the plat
form is drawn with sufficient deft
ness and dubiousness, so as to satis
fy everybody and irritate nobody, and
a good vote-getting candidate is
chosen, the ' people will return the
democratic party to the power it has
held so enjoya-bly for eight years.
Murphy isn't at all sure about
swinging his own state, to say noth
ing of the country. Bryan is positively
satisfied that only one platform and
one candidate has a chance, the same
being himself.
The McAdoo' boosters are not all
optimistic. But Cummings insists
