But there Is no visible sign that there is a McAdoo publicity. .There are. no headquarters.

At every other headquarters ' they name - lists of states certain to go for their candidate oa the first , ballot and of others that will follow. But on -the lips of the rank and file delegates, the name most men tioned Is McAdoo. His strength is a spontaneous strength. - It is an unor ganised mass.

(U. P.) Ths Democratic national con vention meets today to elect Senator Joseph T. Rahinson of Arkansas chairman in accordance with the recommendation of the permanent organization committee,, hear his keynote speech, and adopt a "speed up" program agreed to during; the night by the rules committee. ' Un der this program, - nominating speeches will .begin at 1 p. m. to morrow, but actual balloting will not start 'jntil the piatiorm nas Deen adopted.' -; - .'. : , ':: -y:,' v i ; Robinson Is a staunch administration supporter and with him in the chair con trol remains in the hands of President Wilson's, friends. There was no fight against him in the committee, s Mrs. W. A. McDugal, member from Oklahoma, put him in nomination and instantly nearly all the delegates jumped up- to second it. Former Governor Samuel M. Ralston,-Indiana, chairman of the com mittee, called for a vote and Robinson went over unanimously. ? The whole proceeding appeared very smooth and well oiled. - Robinson had been apprised a few hours previously of the -fact that he was to be chosen and had hurriedly written his keynote speech, which was distributed to the newspaper men to be sent out In advance. E. F. BBITTEK AS AIDE ' f The other temporary officers of the convention were made permanent. E. F. Britten of Washington. D., C, secretary to Josephus Daniels, was elected associ ate secretary. v- ' - The question of .whether the nomina tion should be made before the platform Is adopted, caused a hot debate in the rules committee of which Thomas J.

SATE TIME This procedure will save time- in that the nomination speeches can be gotten Out, of -the way while , the - resolution committee - is working on the platform. At the Republican convention m Chi cago, for instance, nominating- speeches could' not begin until the. platform had been adopted and consequently there was much delay while the resolutions committee report- was awaited. - - An effort to go' ahead and nominate the candidate at once without waiting for the platform was defeated, -25. to 15. Several delegates said they were afraid that under such procedure-the candidate would .attempt -to dictate the platform. - There had been some talk of a. "gag rule'' that would limit - debate from the floor; so that -.W." J. Bryan and other speakers would have to cut short their remarks. -fi DEBATE IS LiamTED "T ' ' The rule adopted limits debate- from the floor to 30 minutes for each speaker on each topic and there was no objec tlon-to it.

They were former Mayor I Lunn of Schenectady, Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt and Justice Seabury. Their contention is, that the unit rule should not apply: to New Tork's dele gation because the delegates 1 were elected from congressional districts and are uninstructed. - A number : of Indi vidual delegates want to vote for Mc Adoo and. the claim is that under: .the unit rule they will be unable to do so, as the Btate's whole ballot will go the way -the majority of the delegation de sires. Lunn, Roosevelt and. Seabury were ready to proceed with arguments immediately, but John Fitzgerald, for mer congressman. New York's member of the committee, objected on the ground that - both sides were not ' represented. The arguments will start at 9 :45 a. m. today. .

In the choice of Senator Carter Glass to .be chairman of the resolutions committee Although a vote was not taken', it was apparent tnat the Wilson rorces con trolled the situation by a comfortable majority they claimed it by 85 to 1 so Senator Walsh of Montana withdrew from the-- race and the selection was made unanimous. . - The platform committee went to work at once. : Two things appear to be set tled one is that- the Democratic sena tors who voted for the Lodge reserva tions will not be denounced.: as was the case In the Virginia platform. .

' ' MIGHT SHIFT TO M'ADOo' This will mean the elimination of all doubt concerning the willingness of can didates to run on. the platform adopted and if McAdoo should express his ap proval of whatever-. compromise plank may be offered on the prohibition issue, some of the delegates who have been in clined toward Cox on this question would shift toward McAdoo. -' Once the .wet and dry plank is dis posed of,: Newr York's delegates are-not unnijely to swing to McAdoo, as : they will want to be on the band wagon. Bryan is represented as softening in his opposition to McAdoo. but it all depends on whether he approves or disapproves the plank drawn by McAdoo's friends.
