WASHINGTON. d. c.. February 2S.-
Conservative Democrats were startled to-
day to learn that Representative James
Griggs, OF Georgia. had secured enough
votes to make himself chairman of the
Democratic Congressional Campaign Com,
mittce. This seems settled. The con-
seryative element among the Democrats
had thought the selection OF Representa-
tive Flood, OF Virginia, well-nigh as
sured. Mr.. Griggs, who was twice chair
man OF the Congressional Committee,
said up to about a week ago he would
not be a candidate for the place, but he
went to New York afterwards. and when
he came back he declared his candidacy
and began to hustle. His hustling was
successful, and there liz little or no doubt
OF his e%lectlon.

warmes supporters and most ardent adj
