' uninstructed delegates to the national convention. The former secretary of the treas ury telcsraphed as follows: "Thank you warmly for your tele Rram offering services of the demo cratic organization In California in circulating petition to enter me in the I primary of that state. Recently I j stated to friends who wished to enter j me in the Georgia primary that I was strongly convinced that all delegates should as far as practicable go to the next national convention uninstructed. so that we might have a free confer ence of unbound delegates who would strive to do the best thing for the country regardless of individual claims or ambitions. If we are to win in the next election, principles and not per sonalities or expediencies must con trol the action of the convention. I cannot, therefore, enter any primary or seek ta have any delegates or dele gations instructed for me. I am not Interested in the fortunes of any indi vidual, but I am eager to join my party associates in every form of patriotic effort to serve the interests or our country, which in the hearts of every virile American must always transcend every other consideration.

I nc immediately other days, when he was either speaking or giving out statements constantly. By the aid of a cane.- Mr. Wilson has been able to transfer himself from the White House to an auto mobile two or three times during the week. And like almost every other sick man. after venturing out with out injurious results, he is certain that his recovery is complete Some demonstration that the president's recovery is complete are expected in the next few days in the rm'ure of a few public blasis to shaw that he has been giving earnest thought to several subjects. Letter May tilve Stand. Oi.e rumor, with apparently good foundation, is that a letter has been prepared ending once and for all all doubts as to Mr. Wilson's position on the peace treaty. This letter has been expected to become public for two or three days, and the reason for its fail ure to appear is said to be that some one with influence has pleaded to have it held back. The reports says that the president appreciates that he has been placed in the position of being the sole ob stacle to the ratification of the treaty. The suppressed letter is said to con tain a caustic indictment of the sen ale and to be designed to try to shift the blame for the present treaty sit uation back "to other shoulders." Blame Shift Humored. There was some disappointment when the letter was not given out to day. Article 10 is said to be the chief topic of discussion in the letter, the occupant of the White House having become especially irritated over the charge that he is seeking to give the British government more than that government is asking. He desires to answer the assertion so frequently made that Great Britain's willingness to accept the Lodge reservation to ar ticle 10 entirely obviates the neces sity of any modification. The plan to have Senator Simmons of Nortji Carolina visit the White House ostensibly to seek a compro mise on the treaty, it was whispered in the senate lobbies today, was de signed to head off the Wilson letter. Such a letter, democratic leaders see. would end all hopes of a treaty com promise and insure a campaign issue of the pact, which is the one thing they do not desire. It will not be surprising if some senator arises Monday at the opening of the treaty discussion and offers to the senate the much-feared letter. "The attempt of the majority," he said, "to pick out a few heads of air craft agencies and hold them respon sible for disappointments in the Amer ican programme is unwarranted by facts and an absurd injustice. "Insofar as we failed to accomplish in military aviation all that we could intelligently expect, the reason is plain as the sun in the sky. It was inexperience and lack of preparation."

FAMOUS HOUSE IS SOLD Hawaii House Occupied by Robert Louis Stevenson to Be Razed. HONOLULU, T. H.. March 6. (Spe cal.) The house in which Robert Louis Stevenson, the famous novelist lived during his first visit to Hawaii in the early 90s and where he wrote "The Master of Ballantrae," has been sold and will probably be torn down. Still Seized; Man Arrested. A still and a quantity of radical literature of the communist labor party were unearthed at the home of O. F. Beeberg, 4128 Sixty-first avenue, southeast, by federal authorities, who placed Beeberg under arrest as an al leged moonshiner.

Wife Beater Pleads Guilty. BEND. Or.. March 6. (Special.) Frank Hammer pleaded guilty this morning before County Judge Barnes to the charge of assault and battery preferred by his wife. Mrs. Hamner ran from the house In her stocking feet last night after she had received a drubbing at the hands of her spouse. Borrowing shoes on the way, she lodged a complaint with the court, which resulted in her husband's arrest. meeting- of the democratic state cen tral committee here today. The selection of the non-preference delegation candidates for the primary election in May followed the adoption of a resolution introduced by Gavin McNab of San Francisco pledging the committee to make no selection of a presidential candidate. McNab, Fran cis J. Heney of Santa Monica. Lorin E. Handley of Los Angeles and others favored the resolution and it passed unanimously after it apparently had worked up a great preponderance of sentiment in its favor. Delcjratea Selected. The following were selected as dele-gates-at-large: E. L. Doney, Miss Mary Foy, Los Angeles; Gavin Mc Xab, San Francisco; Mrs. C. L. Dono hoe, Oakland. Chairmarn Davids of Fresno an nounced that the meeting was called primarily "to determine the plan of election of the delgation to the na tional convention." "The committee has no special func tion to perforin," he said, "other than assisting in the preparation and dis position of petitions to place the names of the democratic delegation groups or individual candidates ' on the ballot. The only indorsements suggested were in favor of Hoover, whose career was presented in brief by Sidney M. Van Wyck Jr. of San Francisco, and Governor J. M. Cox of Ohio, whose name was presented by J. E. Mc Donald of San Francisco. Both with drew their indorsements following the reading of the telegram from Hoover and spoke for the -McNab I resolution. The vote on the resolution followed the statement by Francis J. lieney that in view of the fact that Hoover, McAdoo and Cox were not to be con sidered in the pledging of possible convention delegates, a non-preference list of delegation candidates should be selected. I'helun'M Work Indorsed. A motion by Hcney that the repre sentation on the delegate list be di vided equally among the sexes was ruled out of order by the chair, it being held that it was not a proper matter for Hie committee to consider. Resolutions indorsing the work of President Wilson, United States Sena tor James D. Phelan and the demo cratic delegation in congress from California were proposed by J. B. f'oulston of Pasadena, seconded by Dr. E. C. Bagby of Santa Barbara, and passed unanimously. Concerning the unpledged delega tion resolution Heney said: "It hardly seems hospitable to have the delega tions from other states come here and find that the atmosphere is in favor of any one man. Let the masses decide for themselves. "Herbert Hoover says the Issues are not yet formed, so he hardly can be blamed for not desiring to align himself with a party still without its major principles in regard to the next election. McAdoo does not de sire the delegation in his name." a telegram from nim reaa nere to day by Gavin McNab at the Demo cratic state central committee meet ing. "While highly sensible of the great honor implied in the desire of many friends to place my name In nomina tion as a candidate in democratic primaries," the telegram read, "I deem it due to them to advise tnem tnat as I am not a candidate I therefore can not approve of the use of- my name for that purpose."
