If Is impossible to do so. these State leaders will draw Mir. Hitchcock into the case as an arbitrator.
 During the day. Chairman Hitchcock had conferences with Speaker Cannon. Representative Mckinley, Chairman of the Congressional Committed: Senator Hopkins. Governor Deneen, Representa- tive Chairman: Representative Lowden. member of the Executive Committee of the National Committee. and Fred c. Upham. Assistant Treasurer of the Ma tiona1 Commitete.
 It was announced that the conference related to phases of the National cam paign and the cooperation that is to be had between the National Commit tee and the Congressional Comittee.
 It is known. however. that Mir. Hitch cock was urged to use his influence to get all forces in the party back of the campaign to be made by Governor De- necn for reelection. and to bring Rep resentative Foss and his friends in line for Senator Hopkins
