That one of the plank ln the Democratic platform will frankly declare for Japanese exclu sion in terms that will leave no doubt to the atltude of the party toward that question bepame known today. The information comes from a source con idered highly authentic and follows an interview granted by William J. Bryan in Chicago th other day ln which he declared he favored exclusion. The Impression is that those who will have much to do with the framing of 'he Democratic platform took their cue from this statement and began the building of a platform to meet Mr. Bryan's views on this subject. This Is considered 'a shrewd move on the Dart or tne leaders to coax tne racinc coast state into the ranks of the Democrats. It is said also that Bryan shares the belief of his advisers that an ex. elusion plank will win in these state quicker than anything else.
