Brayton has seldom turned down a
candidate who could finance a campaign.
Moreover. even he has probably seen the
mistake he made when he foisted Bur-

nominee. Few OF them like him. and IL
he were the machine candidate for gov

speaker OF the next house OF representa-

long winded discoursee whenever called
upon to decide parliamentary point
might cause them considerable embar-

Boss Brayton is quoted as saying to a
caller; This man Burchard wants the
nomination. j guess we shall have to let
him have it."

conversation with representatives OF the
powers has stated that Germany accept
ed fully the French assurance that the
operation OF the allied forces in Morocco
would be within the terms OF the Alge-
ciras convention. He added, however,
that the convention did not contemplate
that France and Spain should undertake
to suppress civil war In Morocco. This
statement discloses the German interpre-
tation of the convention. and shows that
any extensive military operation must
either arouse controversy or he preceded
by the consent OF the international pow
ers
The foreign secretary received three
German importers and exporters OF Casa
blanca today. who filed with the govern
ment claims for what they assert was
needless destruction on the part OF the
French troops OF German property at
Casabianca. The foreign secretary told
the merchants that he would investigate
their claims.
