.CLARK-FOLK RIVALRY SHARP
Missouri Convention Set for Feb
ruary 20. in joplin.

ST Louis. Jan. 13.-The breach between
the forces of Speaker Champ Clark and
former Governor Joseph w. Folk, who are
striving for the Missouri delegation at the
Democratic National Convention was WI
dened to-day by the Democratic State Com
mittee selecting February % as the date
for holding the state convention at Joplin.
The Folk adherents fought for date in
March. Folks managers after the meeting
adjourned announced that the committee
lad called snap convention"
Speaker Clark's representatives on the
committee were in unison in declaring that
the date for the convention was the unanl-
nous action of the committee.
The Missouri Democratic League. which
favors the former Governor, contended that
the voters would not have sufficient time
TO become acquainted with the issues II the
state convention was held before March.
In statement the league announced:
We wish it understood that we are not
responsible for bringing about this snap
convention. But we are going 10 fight TO
the last ditch.
Speaker Clark's friends believe that he
will obtain the Missouri Endorsement and
that the holding Of the convention in Feb
ruary will enable them to go TO other
state conventions later in February and
secure their delegations.
