it looked as if they were going to get a l
to 0 victory. With two out in the fourth

the ball just over second base, and Smith
bringing in Diver. Sem was thrown out

REPUBLICANS FOR
COMPROMISE PLAN
LEADERS OF PARTY DISCUSS
METHODS OF HARMoNIzINe
PARTY FORCES.
National Committee Decides to Change
Basis Of Representation In Con-
ventIons Affecting south and
Recognize Primaries.

Washington.-After five hours OF
debate the Republican national com
mittee on Tuesday night determined
Il was clothed with ample power TO re-
adjust the composition Of the partys
national conventions and had author
fly to make changes In
rules and procedure that have been
demanded by many elements since the
convention of 1912 and the Democratic
victory at the polls last November.
With little bitterness and no tangible
evidence that differences which arose
over methods could not be reconciled,
the committee took steps which have
been agitated In the party for thirty
years and which have been vital fact-
ors in many exciting conventions in
its latter-day history.
Without a dissenting vote the com
mittee decided to make a change In
the basis of representation in national
conventions which will greatly affect
southern states, gave full recognition
to the principle in the primary cleo
ton OF delegates; approval such laws
adopted by several states which pro
vide that all delegates be selected at
large and accepted the principle that
delegates properly accredited by state
authorities shall be placed on the tenn
porary convention roll.
The only difference of opinion that
developed on the surface was over the
question of the machinery to be used
to effect the reforms. OF the forty
nine committeeman who voted on the
n rollcall taken, fourteen favored the
calling of a special convention to bring
about these changes, and t~hirty-five de-
clared themselves opposed.
notwithstanding Republican ma
tional committee on Wednesday night
concluded its labor for reform in party
procedure, and launched its campaign
for a reunion of warning elements by
adopting a resolution providing for a
radical change in the basis of repre-.
sentation in national nominating con.
ventions which would reduce the quota
OF southern states from 80 to 16 pei
cent of the conventions total.
