FIGHT is WAGED
FOR VIRGINIA AND
TEXAS DELEGATES
"If Committee Acts Like
Thieves We Will Treat 1t AS
Such," Says T. R. Manager
CONTESTS FOR EIGHTY
SEATS YET TO BE HEARD
Dark Horse" Talk Grows AS
Forces Line Up for Battle
for Supremacy

CHICAGO, June 14-'If the ma
tional committee acts like bunch Of
thieves in the Texas contest. then
they must expect US to treat them as
SUCH" declared Ormsby McHarg, the
Roosevelt contest manager before the
opening OF today's hearings.
We are clearly in the right and IL
the committee pays any attention TO
the merits we will get nearly all or
the 80 seats
II was obvious early today that the
Virginia contests, where 20 seats are
at stake. and the Texas contests, with
80. would develop serious clashes.
The national committee hoped to
finish both Virginia and Texas today,
making II possible to finish the con-
tests Saturday.
When today's session was called
there were yet 10 be decided con-
tests involving two delegates from
North Carolina. two from Oklahoma,
two from South Carolina. eight from
Tennessee. 80 from Texas, 20 from
Virginia, Ia from Washington and two
from the District of Columbia.
The Texas contests are based on
the fight OF the Taft forces 10 oust
Cecil Lyon, the Roosevelt state man
ager, from leadership in the Texas
Republican organization.
( The Taft claims are based on the
fact that Lyon disregarded the call
OF the national committee and had the
Texas delegates to the national con-
vention named at the state conven-
ton. Thereupon the Taft men held
district conventions and put through
their own slate. Later Lyon held dis
trict conventions and elected Roose-
welt delegates a second time.
In the Virginia contests, the RooSe-
welt contestants base their claim that
the Taft delegates are Lily white"
and the district conventions at which
delegates were elected excluded
Negroes.
II the committee takes the IA seats
in Washington away from Roosevelt
and gives them TO Taft the reason as
signed will be that they were elected
from the state at large instead of by
districts.
While positively insisting that there
