for the compromise candidate was AL
bert M. Cummins, senator from Iowa

This ended early in the day and at that
time Senator Crane stated that the two
had discussed replacing Taft with
Cummins before the convention and
that there was good reason to believe
that the factionaI controversy would
be settled.
A great part of the discussion was
given up to the platform that Cum
minis would insist upon Senator Ken
yon made 1t plain that Cummins would
demand a progressive platform con-
tanning no planks favoring reactionary
methods or measures.
Senator Kenyon pleased the Taft
leader when he said that Cummins was
not in favor of the recall of Judges
either in the manner advocated by
Roosevelt or in any other form He
was, however, said Kenyon an advo-
cate of the initiative and referendum.
After Kenyon and Crane separated a
caucus Of the Iowa delegation was
called to reach a definite decision as to
the platform to be put forward John
McVicars. one Of Cummins' chief ad-
viers. said later:

acceptable to the Taft followers as a
compromise candidate the Roosevelt
wing of the party can not possibly re-
fuse to support him because his pro-
gressiveness has to be admitted by all"
