CLARK MEN WANT
MAJORITY RULE

st. Louis, June Ex-senator William
J. Stone declares that friends Of
Speaker Clark will support a resolu-
ton before the Democratic National
Convention, in Baltimore, abolishing
the twO-thirds rule and providing that
whenever and candidate receives a
majority of the votes cast he shall be
declared the party's nominee.
Senator Stone said that an effort
will be made to get other Democratic
Presidential candidates to ask it's abo-
lition by the convention. He said:
The consensus of Democratic opin-
ion is and has been for years that the
two-thirds rule, so called, is absolute
ly without reason or justification on
any basis that ought to underlie the
procedure of Americans in dealing
with great public questions. ] do not
hesitate to say that nine-tenths and
more of the Democrats of the rountry
do not believe In this so-salled two
thirds rule.
81 have attended national conven-
tons regularly for about years and
served on the National Committee for
many years. l have talked with hun
dreds of Democrats about this two
thirds rdle and l cannot now recall
lregar dto it who did not say IT was
fndefensible and ought to be set aside
as rule of practice. The almost I'M
iversal feeling among Democrats is, as
| it should be, that the majority should
rule"
