Committee Agreed Upon Modi-
fled Form by IS to is
COMPROMISE WAS ACCEPTED
Declares That No Injunction or Tenn.
porary Order Should Be Issued In
Extreme Cases.

Chicago, June 1S.-The biggest prob.
lem before the resolutions committee
OF the Republican National convention
that Of the anti Injunction plank, was
disposed OF at o'clock this morning
and the platform was then ready for
the convention as II stands. The anti.
injunction plank demanded by the Taft
interests Is In more modified form
than at first presented before the sub
committee Of the resolutions commit
tee and Is sort Of compromise be-
tween the Taftites on one side and
the conservative element on the other.
II Is believed the compromise will
be satisfactory TO the labor interests.
The plank was inserted in the plat
form by vote of 80 to l6, South Car
DINA not recorded.
Whether or not there will be fight
on the floor Of the convention remains
to be seen but II will probably 90 the
way OF the report OF the credentials
committee yesterday and be adopted
without any opposition on the part OF
the allies.
The compromise resolution upholds
the judiciary and suggests changes in
the procedure OF the federal courts
with respect TO the issuance OF the
weight of Injunction and believes that
procedure OF the court in such instan.
ces should be more accurately defined
by the statutes.
As the platform stands It declares
for tariff revision modelled directly up
on the Iowa and Ohio platforms and
providing for revision Of special ses.
sion OF congress Immediately after in
Iaueuration.
The convention opened at 1917 o.
clock and at 1920 Senator Hopkins OF
Illinois, chairman OF the committee on
platform presented the report of that
committee and II was Immediately Ia
ken up for consideration.
The first storm OF applause was
caused at the first mention of the
name OF Roosevelt by Senator Hop
kins. During reading OF the report o.
the resolutions committee on the plat
form the great crowd that filled ever,
seat was on fire with unbounded en-
thusiasm. The air seemed charged
with nervousness and ready at any
moment for another Roosevelt ova
ton.

Roosevelt day at the Republican Nat

Four Years More"
But the demonstration prolonged
land enthusiastic as IL was. gave M
sign of any movement in the conven

the tribute Of the throng to the presi

answer to the vicious campaign waget
against him by selfish interests. Sen

the whirlwind.
The result is that the president i.

That Is the sentence which acted a.
a burning fuse to dry powder. Instan
