Very respectfully,
William H. Wilson

the almost universal favorite of his con- gresslonal colleagues. Secondly, I find from conversations with people from all iw wood is held in high esteem and in many instances the opinion was freely expressed by them that he would receive the dele gation from that state.
 Very naturally as an Alabamian I am proud of MT. Underwood and of the splendid record he has made during his IS years of service in Congress. In these years he has been maturing and season Ing, until now he represents more nearly than anyone in public life the ideal of the leader. possessing the confidence and esteem and regard of the great men of all parties. He is a leader, indeed. In saying this l have in mind much more than is ordinarily implied by the term. Mr. Un- derwood's leadership not only involves his position as actual head of his party in Congress, but it means more. As such a leader he Is the most wonderfully unify- ing force in the democratic party today. This leadership has inspired and stmu- lated his party with hope which it has not had for years. Through 1t has been accomplished results almost marvellous.
 "I have found the condition of the pup lie mind, throughout the north and west, as indicated by interviews with citizens from those sections, as well as from the papers, such that Underwood as a presi- dential nominee would not only be not ob- jectionable, but thA he would be alto gether agreeable to them if the conven- ton should name him. This should hearten our own people, for they have had too modest sense of their position both in the councils of the party and the af- fairs of the nation. It were worse than folly to assume that if Underwood were nominated there would be sulxing on the part of northern democrats. Our brethren outside of the south have ad- vised themselves of the eminent worth of Underwood as, q man, as a leader, and as thinker. They know he can be trusted. They see in him only a broad and patriotic American, ncorruptible, of high courage, of sound and stable views, with none of the elements of the doc- trinaire and man faithful in his friend ships
 Friends of Mir Underwood should con graduate themselves on the constructive leadership and activity of those in charge of his campaign. Senator Bankhead and those about him in headquarters are busy night and day and most minute and far reaching organization has been effected. :"

MORE R|OT|NG IN
 TEXTILE STRIKE

Lawrence, Mass, February 24-The wailing of IA children of striking tex tile workers as they were taken from the police station to the city home, drove a crowd of 500 foreigners frantic late today. and riotious scenes followed, The children were arrested this fore noon as they were about to take train on route for Philadelphia and ordered to be held at the city home until Tues day.
 This decision angered the strikers. From all directions people gathered and as the children were led out put up such stubborn fight that 1t was neces- sary to call squad of military from the mill district to render assistance. After a 20 minutes battle the crowd was dispersed and all but two of the children were taken to the city farm.
 One triumphant father captured his two children during the confusion and escaped from the scene unnoticed, No arrests were made

Mass. depended to- night upon the reply of Governor Toss of Massachusetts and President Gold en of the Textile Workers union, to q telegram for information sent by Rep resentative Wilson of Pennsylvania, chairman of the House labor commit tee.
