man. but he cannot be nominated. He
would not be the right candidate. IL he
had announced himself unequivocally for

rule?'
Il think we will have twO-thirds ma

not take stock however, in this talk about
'a5rogating' the two-thirds rule. Each con-
vention makes rules TO suit itself, and
| there is no rule that is binding from one
convention TO another II IL is necessary,
we will adopt the majority rule. We can
not afford to have victory snatched out OF

the power of naming the candidate or Of
having a good deal to do with naming
