Holds Platform Not Binding.

THE one-term plank in the Balti-
more platform would be important II
party or popular sentiment favored Its
enforcement A national convention
obviously cannot bind future conven-
tons 1t has no power to go beyond
the issues directly before it.
THE sentiment of the democratic
party now is the controlling factor In
deciding whether the President shall
be asked to take denomination. Dem
ocratic sentiment is clearly and over
whelmingly in favor of another term
for President Wilson, and thus the
academic views on this subject ex-
pressed by delegates at the Baltimore
convention will be emphatically and
fittingly disregarded-"
