man who requested the committee on resolu-

for the anti-war sentiment of the Democratic

that Convention unhesitatingly accepted his
statement that the candidate had got over his
weakness in favor of the prosecution of the
war. In that Convention Virgil Delphini

had "not denounced this wicked, this unholy,
