General Rice wanted Mr.. Chase to
sign the call as chairman Of the Peo-
pies party, but this he declined to do
because at the time the conference is
held the Legislature Of Kansas will be
in session and he and large number Of
the party leaders in Kansas will be un-
able to attend. The result was that
General Rice was compelled to issue the
call without Mr.. Chase's official sanction
as it was preferred by those in favor of
the movement at Ocala
Chairman Chase will, however, issue
q proclamation to the various county
and district committees of the Peoples
